Greyback kanye Growler
Ukwethulwa okuwukuphela kwe-missile ye-Regulus II evela kumphathi wendiza ye-Greyback, ngo-Agasti 18, 1958. Izinqolobane Zesizwe
Ngo-June 1953, uMnyango Wezokuvikela wase-US wasayina isivumelwano no-Chance Vought sokwakha umcibisholo wokuhamba ngomkhumbi ongathwala i-thermonuclear warhead ngaphezu kwe-1600 km ngesivinini esiphezulu. Ngokuqala komklamo we-rocket ye-Regulus II yesikhathi esizayo, i-US Navy yaqala ukwenza izifundo zomqondo zabathwali bayo bangaphansi kwamanzi.
Ukuqala komsebenzi wezikhali ezicitshwayo ze-US Navy kuqale engxenyeni yokuqala yama-40s. Izimpi ezinegazi eziqhingini ezintsha ePacific zenze iButho Lamasosha Lasemanzini lase-US ukuthi liqale ukufunda izindiza ezingenamuntu ezilawulwa ngomsakazo eziklanyelwe ukucekela phansi okuhlosiwe okuvikelwe kakhulu emhlabeni. Lo msebenzi waba nomfutho engxenyeni yesibili ka-1944, lapho izinsalela zamabhomu andizayo aseJalimane i-Fieseler Fi 103 (eyaziwa kakhulu ngokuthi i-V-1) zinikezwa amaMelika. Ekupheleni konyaka, ukusungulwa kweJalimane kwakopishwa futhi kwafakwa ekukhiqizeni ngobuningi ngaphansi kwegama elithi JB-2. Ekuqaleni, kwakuhlelwe ukwakha amakhophi ayi-1000 ngenyanga, okwakuzogcina kusetshenziselwe ukulwa neziqhingi zaseJapane. Ngenxa yokuphela kwempi eMpumalanga Ekude, lokhu akuzange kwenzeke, futhi imicibisholo ethunyelwe yasetshenziswa ekuhlolweni nasekuvivinyweni okuningi. Lezi zifundo, eziqanjwe ngekhodi i-Loon, ezihilelekile, phakathi kwezinye izinto, ukuhlola amasistimu okuqondisa ahlukahlukene, noma ukuthi kungenzeka yini ukusebenzisa imicibisholo evela kumikhumbi-ngwenya.
Ngokufika kwezikhali zenuzi, i-US Navy yabona amandla okuhlanganisa ibhomu le-athomu nama-agent afakazelwe. Ukusetshenziswa kohlobo olusha lwekhanda lempi kwenze kwaba nokwenzeka ukushiya isiqondiso esiqhubekayo somcibisholo osuka endizeni noma emkhunjini ohambisana nawo, okudingekayo ukuze kufezwe ukunemba okwanelisayo. Ukuze uqondise umcibisholo kulokho okuhlosiwe, isistimu yokuqondisa elula esekelwe ku-gyroscopic autopilot ingasetshenziswa, futhi indaba yokunemba kokushaya kwaxazululwa ngokusebenzisa i-nuclear warhead. Inkinga bekuwubukhulu nesisindo sakamuva, okuphoqe uhlelo ukuthi lwenze umcibisholo we-cruise osezingeni eliphezulu onebanga elide kanye nomthwalo ohambisanayo. Ngo-August 1947, le phrojekthi wathola ukuqokwa SSM-N-8 kanye negama Regulus, futhi ukuqaliswa kwalo waphathiswa Chance Vought, okuyinto, ngokuzihambela kwayo, kusukela ngo-October 1943 ukusebenza kule ndlela. yonke iphrojekthi.
Uhlelo Regulus
Umsebenzi owenziwe uholele ekwakhiweni kwesakhiwo esifana nendiza ene-fuselage eyindilinga enomoya ophakathi nendawo enjinini namaphiko angu-40°. Kwasetshenziswa izimpaphe zepuleti nephini lokugwedla elincane. Ngaphakathi kwe-fuselage kunendawo ye-warhead enesisindo esiphezulu se-1400 kg (i-nuclear Mk5 noma i-thermonuclear W27), ngemuva kwesistimu yokuqondisa kanye nenjini yejethi ye-Allison J33-A-18 ene-thrust engu-20,45 kN. Ukwethulwa kuhlinzekwe yizinjini zamarokhethi ezi-2 ze-Aerojet General ezine-thrust ephelele engu-293 kN. Amarokhethi okuqeqesha ayefakwe igiya lokuhlala elihlehliswayo, okwenza kwaba nokwenzeka ukuzibeka enkundleni yezindiza futhi ziphinde zisetshenziswe.
Kusetshenziswe isistimu yokuqondisa yomsakazo, ehlanganiswe ne-gyroscopic autopilot. Isici salolu hlelo kwakuwukukwazi ukulawula irokhethi ngomunye umkhumbi ohlome ngemishini efanele. Lokhu kwenze kwaba nokwenzeka ukulawula irokhethi kulo lonke indiza. Lokhu kuye kwaqinisekiswa ngokuphindaphindiwe eminyakeni eyalandela.
ngokusebenza, kuhl. phakathi novivinyo ngoNovemba 19, 1957. Umcibisholo, owadutshulwa emphemeni we-heavy cruiser Helena (CA 75), usuhambe ibanga elingamakhilomitha angu-112 nautical, wamukelwa umkhumbi-ngwenya we-Tusk (SS 426), owawulawulwa amamayela alandelayo angama-70 we-nautical lapho i-Twin Carbonero (AGSS) ithatha ukulawula kwe-337) - lokhu kushayela kuletha i-Regulus phezu kwamamayela okugcina we-nautical angu-90 ukuze afinyelele umgomo wakhe. Lo mcibisholo wahlanganisa isamba esingamamayela angama-272 we-nautical futhi washaya ilitshe ebangeni elingamamitha ayi-137.
