The American F-22 “Raptor” fighter jet has always been considered the king of the air battle with its excellent stealth capabilities and powerful combat performance. However, the Chinese research team has recently made breakthroughs in radar detection technology, which could change the strategic balance of air operations in the future.

According to a report by the South China Morning Post today (19th), a research team led by Xie Junwei from the Xi’an Air Force Engineering University Aerospace Defense School announced that they have developed a new radar detection method that can significantly improve the detection of F-22 and Detect abilities of other stealth fighters.

This new technology can enhance the radar signal of the F-22 stealth fighter 60,000 times, so that the signal strength displayed on the radar screen is equivalent to the radar cross-sectional area of ​​an ordinary fighter jet of more than 6 square meters.

According to reports, the technology developed by Xie Junwei’s team can not only improve the ability to detect stealth fighters, but also cover a vast battlefield of about 63,000 square kilometers. This ensures that no matter how the F-22 moves, it can be firmly captured by the radar network.

The application of this technology has significantly improved the accuracy of the radar system in capturing the real-time position of stealth fighters, with an error of only about 20 meters, allowing relevant information to be quickly transmitted to interceptor fighters or air defense missile systems .

The research team also proposed the concept of “intelligent resource scheduling”, which uses a centralized networked radar system to adjust the beam and power parameters of each radar to optimize according to the characteristics of the stealth aircraft and real-time situation changes.

Xie Junwei’s team claims that this intelligent scheduling method not only improves the intensity and accuracy of radar tracking, but also ensures that although the target is continuously locked, the radar system can focus limited detection resources on the most likely direction of the aircraft, thereby ensuring that the aircraft is most likely to appear. Use the performance of each radar effectively in multi-target environments.

The implementation of “intelligent resource scheduling” technology makes the radar system more efficient when dealing with a large number of air targets. By precisely adjusting radar beams and power, the system can focus resources on tracking stealth fighters that may pose the greatest threat, rather than spreading power evenly across all directions.
