Chapter 525 Investment (Second update)

"Others need to study this aspect." Of course Liu Hai knew that this system could be applied, but it was not the helmet mode, but the remote control belt display mode.

In other words, before Liu Hai traveled through time, most of the machine guns on armored vehicles or other equipment were not controlled by humans. The operators operated them remotely from inside the vehicle, just like playing games.

Moreover, these armored vehicles are equipped with photoelectric sound detection equipment. Wherever a shot is fired, the machine gun will automatically point in the direction of the gunfire, and there is also an automatic aiming system.

That is, the automatic calibration system. As long as you lock on a distant attacker inside, the machine gun will automatically aim according to the accuracy of your shooting.

Of course, the amount of this equipment is relatively small, because there is no large-scale war and the system updates and iterates too quickly.

How much would such a system cost if thousands of armored vehicles were equipped at a time?

Then after three, five, seven or eight years, the system was updated and iterated, and the previous ones were basically abandoned.

Most ordinary soldiers still use people to control the machine guns, because this can train the soldiers' reaction speed. In the future, more advanced scientific methods will be used to react faster.

And based on our manufacturing standards when Liu Hai traveled through time, it won't take long to transplant this set of equipment to other armored vehicles.

"Oh my God, God, you have actually made an aiming helmet?" Charles' jaw dropped in surprise.

"Comrade Liu Hai, feel free to express your opinions, but we are not as visionary as you young people when it comes to the application of these equipment." Another leader of the Air Force department also said.

Therefore, it has always maintained an independent spirit in the military.

"Haha, it was us who were abrupt." The other leaders laughed.

It's just that Liu Hai's test is more complicated because there are fewer software systems, so the test is much simpler.

There are military experts in Gallic Chicken's expert team. Seeing this scene, my eyes almost dropped, and I was even more anxious.

The pattern of world wars in the future will be unmanned.

People here at Yutong are confused. You must know that it has only been more than two months since the cooperation was discussed, and you have already produced samples.

Of course, the Gallic Chicken expert team did not enter the motorcycle factory, but came to a military base in the north of the city.

When Charles and the expert team from Gaulji saw the armed helicopter in the hangar.

The bangs will continue to be tested. The first is the power test.

"Dear Li, can we go up and experience it? I think we can go up and experience it so that we can understand the performance of this armed helicopter more intuitively." Charles was very excited and was even more impressed by the manufacturing strength of a large eastern country.

There are several acquaintances in the expert group, and the representative of Yutong is Charles.

"Mr. Charles, this is the armed helicopter we built. Your research and development progress is really unflattering." Brother Li said to Charles with a smile.

"Comrade Liu Hai, this is because you are too humble." The leader of the Air Force department said after hearing Liu Hai's words.

"Comrade Liu Hai, your style is worth learning from all of us." Several leaders nodded.

So Charles got on the gunship first and sat in the front shooter position.

The entire armed helicopter was fixed on the experimental bench, with only one test pilot inside. He started the helicopter according to Liu Hai's orders, and then made a series of actions according to the orders.

The cannon below also rotates as the pilot's helmet rotates above.

Every helicopter, even a mass-produced helicopter, must undergo various tests and test flights before being delivered for use.

His jaw dropped in surprise. What shocked Charles even more was that the helicopter seemed to be conducting equipment testing.

Those who are impatient also want to equip this kind of armed helicopter. After all, the aiming helmet can greatly improve the attack efficiency of the helicopter.

During the test flight, it attracted the attention of many leaders, mainly military leaders.

Because this prototype is to be shown to the partners on the Gallic Chicken side.

After a week of continuous testing, we conducted the ultimate test, which was the helicopter's ultimate flight altitude and flight speed.

The deputy director of the motorcycle factory in charge of the military industry said protectively: "Everyone, please let me know first, please don't disturb our Comrade Liu Hai. If you have any questions, let's sit down and talk about it after the test is over."

Of course, by the time Liu Hai crossed over, this kind of armored vehicle was a bit outdated, and unmanned detection vehicles were already being developed. This kind of vehicle is smaller than normal armored vehicles, but the weapons and equipment it carries are not weak at all. Not only do they have rockets , as well as anti-tank missiles and even machine guns.

After the test is completed, the relevant parts of the helicopter must be inspected.

"No, I can't guarantee the practical performance of the aiming helmet I'm making now, and whether it can reach the level of a bald eagle. I still need to speak with facts." Liu Hai said quickly.

There are two pilots sitting in the tandem cockpit, and one pilot's helmet is rotating.

"Of course, but our aiming helmet is still in the experimental stage. Please give us your opinion, Mr. Charles." Brother Li nodded.

You must know that now the Gallic chicken is not fawning over the bald eagle, but at the same time he has to beware of the fat bear.

Originally, Liu Hai wanted to prepare for a destruction test, which meant using a cannon to blast the helicopter, but since there was only one prototype, he forgot about it for the time being.

The people over at Gallic Chicken definitely didn’t believe that we had completed it, so they quickly sent a team of experts here.

Any equipment must be continuously optimized during continuous use.

The armed helicopters we equip behind us have completely different cockpit layouts from those in Europe and the United States.

When Gaul Chicken was notified here, the hardware facilities of the armed helicopter had been completed, and the first prototype had completed a series of tests.

Armed helicopters are undergoing various tests at the military base. This aiming helmet is also a test product, mainly for pilots to try out to see if there are any shortcomings.

There are drones in the sky, which avoid terrain obstacles, and there are various unmanned small tanks or robot dogs on the ground.

Indoor power tests were conducted for three consecutive days, and the helicopter was re-inspected after the test.

On the fourth day, I came to the airport for a low-altitude flight test. The low-altitude flight test was also divided into many items.

The cockpit layout of Europe, America and Big Brother has the shooter in the front and the pilot in the back.

As for our Z-10 at the back, we use a pilot in the front and a shooter in the back.

Theoretically, helicopter pilots need to fly at ultra-low altitudes and sit in front to have a wider view.

However, early armed helicopters used a large number of mechanical sighting equipment. If the shooter is placed at the back, it will affect the shooter's field of vision. So put the shooter in front early on.

With the continuous use of photoelectric sights in the back, not only the size of the equipment is reduced, but it is not limited by distance, so the armed helicopters behind us adopt the layout of pilots in the front and shooters in the back.

Liu Hai can't imitate us now, the pilot in front and the shooter in the back, because now we still need to use a lot of mechanical sights.

Charles sat in the shooter's position and looked at the rough aiming helmet in his hand.

To be precise, this is a helmet with a transparent lens in front.

The only function of this helmet is that if the person's face is facing in any direction, the cannon below will be facing in any direction.

There is no such thing as a helmet display system, and it is impossible to have one. It just saves the shooter time in adjusting the cannon.

Charles was very excited, because theoretically, this helicopter was also a Gallic chicken helicopter. After all, it was a cooperative research.

Of course, the cannon is definitely not equipped with ammunition, and there are only mechanical sights on it, without various radars, ranging equipment, etc.

The test pilot in the back was quite nervous, after all, he was flying with a gringo.

The test pilot took Charles to fly at a low altitude for a while, and then directly flew up to the highest altitude.

After flying quickly at low altitude and high altitude for a while, Charles reluctantly got off the plane.

Then other members of the expert team began to get on the plane to experience it, of course, more to see the performance of the aircraft.

“We used all-titanium alloy for the armor of this aircraft.”

"The rotor, tail and fuselage can all cope with attacks from 12.7 and 23mm ammunition."

"The cockpit around the pilot and shooter is made of titanium alloy composite armor, which has a higher safety factor." Brother Li and Charles introduced while standing together. There were other members of the expert team beside them, who were looking carefully at the distance with telescopes. gunship flying.

"Lee, you are so awesome. The aiming helmet is very sensitive." Charles has experienced the aiming helmet from the Bald Eagle, and the Gallic Chicken itself is also doing research in this area.

Of course, we know that this seemingly simple equipment requires a lot of professional and technical personnel.

"Our helmet still has many shortcomings. It only has the simplest pointing function." Brother Li said modestly.

"No, no, Li, you are too modest. There are many issues involved, and I found that your helmet is lighter than the bald eagle's aiming helmet." Charles shook his head quickly and waved his hand.

This is how foreigners speak. Many people like to use gestures to help express what they mean.

"We haven't seen a bald eagle's aiming helmet yet." What Brother Li said is true.

"The aiming helmet seems very simple, but the technical content inside is very high, including the accuracy of the gyroscope itself, the control program and the cannon control system." Charles, as an engineer of Yutong Company, certainly knows this.

Whether it is the helmet itself, the control program, the cannon control system, or the related hardware facilities, how difficult is it to make these things unified and compatible?

To be able to control the machine gun up, down, left, and right with sensitivity requires a high level of professionalism.

"Thank you Mr. Charles for your affirmation. I think you can speed up the progress. After all, we have the same opponent." Brother Li, this is urging the other party in disguise.

"Of course." Charles felt a little blushing when he said this. After all, the other party had already built the helicopter to this extent.

It can be said that this armed helicopter is ready for service in the Eastern country.

Install rockets, wire-controlled anti-tank missiles, and machine guns to at least crush the armed helicopters currently equipped by Gallic Chicken.

The second expert team member got off the helicopter and his mouth split with laughter.

This is a military helicopter pilot. Based on the flight speed, flight trajectory and other actions, it can be judged that this armed helicopter is excellent.

The expert team members stayed here for a long time and brought structural drawings of the aircraft, because structural drawings are needed to design and install the software system.

Of course, it is just the structural drawings, the specific titanium alloy armor manufacturing process and the turboshaft engine. These will not be shown to others at all.

In other words, even if the Gallic chickens want to equip armed helicopters in the future, they will either choose our turboshaft engines, or they can replace them with their own turboshaft engines.

Anyway, the manufacturing technology of turboshaft engines is top secret, and in the future, only one factory in China will be able to produce and manufacture this kind of turboshaft engines.

Other helicopter companies can only obtain turboshaft engines from this factory.

Liu Hai is already preparing to design an artillery radar, using a phased array radar antenna.

Of course, the phased array radar antenna at this time was relatively large due to technical and material reasons.

The principle of artillery radar is very simple. It mainly measures the ballistic trajectory of the opponent's artillery shell. As long as the radar scans two points of its ballistic trajectory, the position of their artillery position can be determined through the computer through the data detected by the artillery radar.

The artillery radar we imported from Niu Niu in the 80s had many flaws, as mentioned before.

Of course, Niuniu's artillery radar also has advantages, that is, it is light in weight.

The radar currently designed by Liu Hai can weigh one or two tons, and it also needs to be specially equipped with a computer system.

It is about the same size as the Bald Eagle Firefinder TPQ36.

Artillery Radar Liu Hai has another approach, that is, he is just the chief designer, and then leaves various systems to other departments.

Liu Hai could dismantle some phased array radar antenna components on the aircraft carrier and assemble the radar himself.

It's a pity that I can't tell the origin, so I can only put the pressure on the semiconductor manufacturing department.

Anyway, it is enough to have one or two pieces of equipment at the beginning, even if the laboratory manufacturing cost is higher.

The update iteration of artillery radar is actually not very fast, because only large-scale artillery battles occur between superpowers.

Moreover, once artillery radar appears, it will become the opponent's primary target. Many artillery radars behind the Bald Eagle that support Fat Bear's second son are directly destroyed by the opponent's drones on the battlefield.

And in the later stage, many of them were self-propelled howitzers, which would run away within a few seconds after being fired.

"Comrade Liu Hai, your plan to invest in the port in Djibouti has been approved by the superior department. The next step is to reach a cooperation intention with the dealer. Do you have any other ideas?" Brother Li asked Liu Hai with a piece of information.
