Can our drone fight Apache in air-to-air combat?

With air-to-air missiles, it is theoretically possible to fight Apache.

In fact, Apache has no ability to air itself, but it can still "air".

why is this? It's very simple. What Americans do is simple and rude. They just hang stinger missiles on helicopters, and even they hang rattlesnakes.

Although helicopters don't have air-to-air fire control radar, and there is no corresponding airborne software, these short-range air-to-air missiles are capable of self-guided attack, and they can be ejected to hit people only by aiming at the missile fire control and turning it on and releasing it. At present, it is a routine all over the world. For example, Russian Ka -52 helicopter can be hung with R-73, and European Jaguar can be hung with "Northwest Wind" missile, and it is enough to take the missile to shine on the plane in the sky, so that it can be shot.

China has also developed the Tianyan -9(TY-9) helicopter combat bomb, which is specially developed for helicopter air combat. It adopts indium antimonide infrared guidance and laser proximity design, which is much smaller than the "Thunderbolt" series air-to-air missiles dedicated to fighter planes, and is very similar to the "Avant-garde" series individual air-to-air missiles. It is said that the helicopter's ability has been optimized, and the paddle is specially used to attack.

After talking so much about helicopters hanging air-to-air missiles, it should be clear that theoretically, as long as helicopters can mount these active missiles, there is actually no big problem for drones to hit helicopters. This has nothing to do with what special functions the drone has and what special weapons it carries. It only needs the drone to have certain flight carrying capacity, integrated detection and combat capability, and the ability to detect and search the situation.

What's more, there is no "helicopter air combat" at all. At present, few helicopter confrontation cases are mostly blind cats hitting dead mice.

Take China's "Rainbow 5" UAV as an example. If it is this kind of UAV, it may even have the upper hand in the confrontation with Apache. Its biggest advantage is that "Rainbow 5" has an "air early warning system", which can be used as an early warning aircraft for enemy aircraft detection, and can also carry out electronic countermeasures such as communication interference. The wing mounting capacity is as high as 1 ton, and it can carry 16 air-to-ground missiles.

it also has a cruising altitude of 5m, a service ceiling of 76m and a cruising speed of 22km per hour.

We can compare the data of Apache. Its service ceiling is 6,4 meters, and its maximum speed is 365 kilometers per hour. Only four Stinger and two Rattlesnakes can be mounted at two external points. Even the AH-64D with the "Longbow Fire Control Radar" mounted on it only detects the ground. It scans and refreshes once every six minutes on average, and then automatically marks the ground targets. Korea bought it back with joy in the past, and it didn't take long for it to gush, indicating that it can even miss the obvious targets on the ground.

The most important thing is that Rainbow 5 has real airborne radar detection capability, which can be converted into air combat capability at any time.

So, we might as well make a bold guess. It is entirely possible for unmanned aerial vehicles such as Rainbow 5 to become anti-helicopter weapons. A team of "Apache" quietly flew to a mountain near the treetops. They were preparing to launch a surprise attack. Suddenly, several small missiles flew in the sky, and "bang" a helicopter was recruited, and the rotor was blown to pieces. The "Apache" were immediately interfered by radar and suppressed by electronics. It didn't take long for the missiles falling from the sky to wash a wave. It happened that they didn't dare to fly to the sky as targets, and they couldn't find the inexplicable small target, so they had to make a trembling and retreat. So before long, "Rainbow 5" called a fixed-wing fighter ...

You don't have to say that the United States has already tested air-to-air missiles on the "Death" drone, which is just enough for our rainbow.

MQ-9, the second generation unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) of the US Air Force, is also known as Reaper. This kind of turboprop UAV is small in size, its radar reflection is almost negligible, and even its noise is quite small, so it can't be found at all in the night sky, and it is especially suitable for similar assassination missions. Its maximum cruising altitude has risen to 15, meters and it can fly continuously for 4 hours. MQ-9, UAV is equipped with an advanced AN/AAS-52 MTS-B multi-spectral aiming system under the nose, which can realize long-range monitoring, high-altitude target capture, tracking, ranging and face recognition, and provide laser irradiation instructions for AGM-114 Hellfire air-to-ground missile. The system can not only carry out reconnaissance and surveillance on the ground with a large field of view, but also realize high zoom with a small field of view, so as to identify people on the ground.

America opens a brand-new mode of modern warfare. Severely punish the first evil, don't ask the rest, strike accurately, and clear it at a fixed point ... This is tantamount to technology changing the lives of ordinary soldiers who are forced to join the front line. In the past war forms, the supreme commander was often not easy to die, but he caused a large number of deaths of his soldiers and great losses to his people. But now it's different. American high technology makes it possible to strike first and launch missiles by drones. First, the main leaders of the army are knocked out one by one. From the point of view of the whole human society, there are few innocent soldiers, horses and rivers of blood, and thousands of orphans and widows, Lacrimosa, in modern wars.

Eldest brother, the advantage of unmanned aerial vehicle is low cost. If you want to fight with unmanned aerial vehicle, you must equip radar, then lay the 5G network on the battlefield, and make sure that no one interferes with you before you can fight with it. But the question is, will the enemy not interfere with you? The United States is making a satellite link, and they intend to use the 5G network all over the world. We have just launched Beidou to solve the positioning problem. After launching the satellite link, the United States has the wireless transmission capability, and they can really use 5G in the battlefield and use drones to fight. < P > We are behind American equipment for more than 5 years. It is very important to recognize ourselves and our enemies calmly and rationally. In fact, it has nothing to do with people, but with management.

Your picture is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with integrated search and strike. Its flight performance is not excellent, and it is not automatically operated when performing tasks. It is controlled by remote control personnel on the ground. Generally, it is used in low-confrontation areas. Although it can also be equipped with small air-to-air missiles, compared with manned helicopters, the UAV's response and flying agility are not as good as that of helicopters. If helicopters are equipped with the same missiles and search radars, the UAV is more likely to be killed.
