Ua lele hope ʻo Shinshin
Shinshin, Mitsubishi X-2
Ma ke kakahiaka o Aperila 22 o keia makahiki, he mea hoikeike o na mokulele hakaka Iapana o ka 5th, 6th generation, e like me ka olelo a na Kepani ponoi, i lele aku no ka manawa mua mai ke kahua mokulele ma Nagoya, Iapana. ʻO ka Mitsubishi X-2, ka mea i kapa mua ʻia ʻo ATD-X, aia i ka lewa no 23 mau minuke ma mua o ka pae ʻana i ka mokulele mokulele Kepani ma Gifu. No laila, ua hana ʻo Iapana i kahi mea nui i ke ala i ka hui kūʻokoʻa o nā mea nona ka hanauna hou o nā mea hakakā.
Ua lilo ʻo Iapana i ʻāina ʻehā ma ka honua e hoʻāʻo i kahi mea hōʻike kaua 5th hanauna i ka lewa. Aia ma mua o ke alakaʻi honua maopopo ma kēia wahi, ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻo ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa (F-22A, F-35), a me Russia (T-50) a me Kina (J-20, J-31). Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole maopopo loa ke kūlana o nā papahana ma nā ʻāina hope a ʻaʻole loa e kāpae ʻia e lanakila ka Land of the Rising Sun i kekahi o kona mau hoa hakakā i ka wā e hoʻokomo ai i kāna kaʻa i ka lawelawe kaua. Eia naʻe, lōʻihi ke ala i mua o nā mea hoʻolālā.
Ua ʻike ʻia e ka poʻe Kepanī ka pono o nā mea kaua ʻāina i kēia manawa ma mua o ke Kaua Honua II, akā na kēia hakakā kaua i lawe mai i ka home i ke koʻikoʻi o kahi kaʻa kūikawā no ka pale ʻana i ka Mother Islands. ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu, i ka loaʻa ʻana mai o ka ʻāʻī o ke kaua, ua hoʻomaka koke ka Land of the Rising Sun e hoʻāʻo e kiʻi i nā mokulele mokulele hou a nui, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi me ke komo ʻana o kāna ʻoihana ponoʻī. ʻO ka hana ʻana o nā mea hakakā ma hope o ke kaua Iapana ua hana ʻia e ka hui Mitsubishi, kahi i hana i ka hana ʻana i nā mea kaua e like me: F-104J Starfighter (mai loko o 210 mau mīkini, ʻekolu i hana ʻia ma USA, 28 ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana o ʻAmelika. brigades ma nā hale hana Mitsubishi, a me 20 mau noho ʻelua F-104DJ, nona ka 178 i laikini ʻia ma laila), F-4 (ʻelua prototypes o ka ʻano F-4EJ i kūkulu ʻia ma USA, a me 14 RF-4E reconnaissance. nā kaʻa, 11 mokulele i hana ʻia mai nā ʻāpana ʻAmelika, kahi 127 i kūkulu ʻia ma Iapana), F-15 (2 F-15J a me 12 F-15DJ, 8 F-15J i hōʻuluʻulu ʻia mai nā ʻāpana ʻAmelika, a he 173 i hana ʻia ma Iapana) a me F- 16 (ʻo kona hoʻololi hohonu - ʻo Mitsubishi F-2 - i hana ʻia ma Iapana wale nō, aia he 94 mau mokulele i ka huina a ʻehā mau prototypes).
Ma hope o ke Kaua Honua ʻElua, kūʻai kūpaʻa ʻo Tokyo i nā mea hakakā mai ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a loaʻa mau i nā hopena ʻoi loa (a me ke kumukūʻai). Ma ka manawa like, ua noho ʻo Iapana i mea kūʻai maikaʻi, ʻoiai no ka manawa lōʻihi ʻaʻole ia i hoʻāʻo e hana i kāna mau mokulele kaua ponoʻī, a inā i hana ʻia, ʻaʻole ia i hoʻokuʻu aku iā lākou a ʻaʻole i hoʻokumu i ka hoʻokūkū no nā hui ʻAmelika. Ma kēia kūlana, ʻaʻole ia he mea kupanaha i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka lā 22, ua hilinaʻi maoli ka poʻe Kepani ʻo kā lākou mea kaua e hiki mai ana ʻo ia ka F-2006A Raptor, nona ka papahana noiʻi a me ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka hopena. No laila, he mea hōʻeha nui i ka wā i hoʻolaha ai ʻo ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i ka makahiki 5 i ka pāpā ʻana i ke kūʻai ʻana i nā ʻāina ʻē o ia mau mīkini. ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu ka hopena. Ma hope o kēlā makahiki, ua hoʻolaha ʻo Iapana i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o kāna papahana ponoʻi XNUMXth generation fighter.
ʻAʻole ia he kaena wale, hāʻawi ʻia i nā hiki kālā a me ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka ʻoihana kūloko. Eia kekahi, mai ka makahiki 2001, ke alakaʻi nei ʻo Iapana i kahi papahana e pili ana i ka hoʻokumu ʻana i kahi ʻōnaehana hoʻokele lele no kahi mokulele jet maʻalahi loa (hana ma kahi ʻōnaehana hoʻokele lele e pili ana i ka lolouila e pili ana i nā fibers optical a me kahi ʻōnaehana no ka hoʻololi ʻana i ke kuhikuhi o ka neʻe ʻana o ka mokulele) . thrust vector, me ka hoohana ana i ekolu movable jet reflectors i kau ma ka engine nozzle, like me na mea i hookomoia ma ka X-31 hoao mokulele), a me ka noiʻi papahana no ka iho 'ike 'ike loea (ka ho'omohala 'ana i ka maika'i loa airframe shape a me ka uhi 'ana i ka radar radiation). .
