The technological competition starts with the integration of space-time memory

Chapter 194: Fighting All Over the World
Li Tang said seriously: "I just made some minor modifications, moving the cargo ship's tower at the rear to the right side."

"Professor Li, you are telling lies with your eyes open. Is that interesting?"

Li Tang said calmly: "Mr. Zhao, doesn't the Empire often lie with open eyes?
For example, in this revenge against Has, they had to say that those ordinary people were Has fighters.

They sent out hundreds of thousands of troops armed to the teeth, and you still have the nerve to use a brick to make a fuss."

Zhao Changhai had a headache again. Professor Li's weakness at young age was obvious. He was obviously a bit of an angry young man.

"Professor Li, you are mistaken. That was about the hoopoe, not the empire."

Li Tang shook his head and said, "I'm not wrong. Without the Empire's protection of its chicks, how dare he say that?"

Zhao Changhai sighed and said, "Let's not talk about this. Are you planning to use this...armed freighter to transport goods?"

"An armed freighter is also a freighter, so of course it has to carry goods. You'll see that not only are the cargo holds filled with cars or ores, but it's also filled with cars we export."

Zhao Changhai thought for a moment and said, "You have the shipbuilding capacity, why don't you build a batch of amphibious assault ships for our navy?"

Li Tang replied, "Sure, is it 076? Give us the drawings, not just of the ship, but also of the various weapons, radars, electromagnetic catapults, etc., detailed drawings are required."

Zhao Changhai pointed to the armed freighter in the harbor below and said, "You've already built this, why do you still need the blueprints?"

"Mr. Zhao, do you think our navy can use this kind of freighter as an amphibious assault ship?"

Zhao Changhai was silent for a while, then said, "Okay, I'll give you all the drawings, but there's one thing: you can't really sell your armed freighters to those African countries without my permission."

Li Tang touched his forehead and said, "Mr. Zhao, any ship carrying military equipment exported by the Tang Dynasty must be approved by you.

If you keep emphasizing this kind of armed freighter, it seems a bit..."

Zhao Changhai raised his hand and interrupted, "I don't care what you do. The two attack submarines you build for the navy must have better performance than the 076 and be cheaper than the Jiangnan."

"Then can you give me a rough idea of ​​how much the Jiangnan project will cost?"

"100 billion! You have to have less than that, and it has to be better. I know you can do it."

"Okay, one price, 98 billion. I guarantee it's the world's strongest dual attack aircraft. Yes, it can be transformed into a light aircraft carrier at any time."

Zhao Changhai glanced at Li Tang and said, "For such a big ship, you only gave a profit of 2 million. This is not like your previous style."

Li Tang showed a worried look and said, "We will have to cut meat to feed the eagle soon. The landlord has no surplus food. Please let me earn a little."

"You can make money, but the next visit needs better things, otherwise you will have to go down again."

Li Tang smiled and said, "That's no problem. By the way, Mr. Zhao, how many ships do you want to build for the navy?"

Zhao Changhai said: "There must be three ships on Jiangnan's side, and you... never mind, three ships too."

Li Tang smacked his lips, "Oh, only three."

"Only? Ten billion per ship, plus the annual maintenance and use fees, do you think it's cabbage?"

"Okay, a mosquito's leg is still meat, even if it's small. How about inviting you to participate in the launching ceremony next month?"

Zhao Changhai swallowed his saliva and said, "Next month? Can you really do it that fast? Don't you still need those drawings? Doesn't it take time for engineers to read the drawings?"

"Nowadays, all drawings are made by computer. If a blueprint is transferred to us, No. 0 can finish reading it in seconds. I forgot to tell you that for things like this that don't require innovation, the engineer is No. 0."

Currently, with the expansion of hardware, Zero's computing power continues to grow and its intelligent application capabilities have been greatly improved.

Zero can completely undertake the work of simply enhancing a certain feature of the original item on his own.

Some slightly innovative work can basically be handled by handing it over to researchers at the institute.

This is the reason why the Future Science and Technology Research Institute is experiencing explosive growth in all aspects today. Apart from the limitation of 24 hours a day, there is nothing that can limit the rapid development of future technology.

Zhao Changhai was silent for a moment. It turned out that Zero could only be fully utilized in Li Tang's hands.

Li Tang had previously created a new artificial intelligence for the country within its internal network, with all codes and control being in the hands of a group of artificial intelligence experts at the Academy of Sciences.

But several months have passed, and many things on the intranet still have not been able to apply this artificial intelligence.

To the extent that some people are now beginning to question whether Li Tang concealed his shortcomings and gave a castrated version of artificial intelligence.

However, Zhao Changhai specifically consulted the expert group and learned that some people are simply unwilling to allow artificial intelligence to participate in certain tasks. Due to various restrictions, artificial intelligence has not been fully utilized.

"Okay, then I'll come to attend the launching ceremony of your two-attack ship next month. What other things will you visit next?"

Li Tang said: "As for the aerospace industry, let's watch it together during the launch tomorrow. I'll take you to see the Future Technology Biomedical Research Institute first, and you can have your body checked here, okay?" "You can visit, but you don't need to have a check-up. I have a specialist doctor who checks on you regularly."

"Mr. Zhao, your health is the capital of revolution. Please listen to my instructions."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

……

Future Technology Research Institute Headquarters, Military Zone.

Datang Aerospace Vehicle Manufacturing Plant, an assembly workshop.

After completing the examination at the Biomedical Research Institute, Zhao Changhai felt in good spirits, so Li Tang took him to the aircraft manufacturing plant.

Zhao Changhai watched the Seiko robot with great interest. Under his eyes, it completed the final assembly of a Predator first-generation unmanned fighter in just about 30 minutes.

The first generation of Predator was finally developed more than a month ago and achieved a successful first flight.

Over the next month, a total of ten prototypes conducted verification flights simultaneously across the country, completing all the flight test subjects that the Predator 0.5 generation had been missing.

The first generation of Predator adds a variable cycle turbofan engine as the main power based on the pure electric engine of the 0.5 generation, providing omnidirectional power in hybrid mode.

The overall size has therefore increased significantly, reaching a length of 14.6 meters, a wingspan of 12.6 meters, a height of 3.5 meters, a maximum speed of 2.28M, a flight endurance of 36 hours, a combat radius of 42000 kilometers, a maximum take-off weight of 22 tons, and a bomb load of 5-6 tons.

Thanks to the jet main thrust, the speed of the first generation of Predator was finally able to break the sound barrier, reaching a speed of Mach 2.28, just exceeding the F22 fighter of the Imperial Air Force.

The main power is a variable cycle turbofan engine with a maximum thrust of 200 kilonewtons, exceeding the 135 kilonewtons of the Empire's F178 engine, making it the world's most powerful turbofan engine.

At the same time, because of the use of hybrid power, its combat radius reaches an astonishing 42000 kilometers, making it a truly capable fighter jet that can cruise and fight around the world.

Compared with the [Predator] in Li Tang's dream, only the maximum speed and flight altitude are incomparable, so it cannot be called an aerospace fighter.

With this unmanned fighter, Li Tang's Red Star Security dares to confront the empire's air superiority around the world and effectively complete its own security mission.

Standing next to Mr. Zhao and giving him a detailed technical report was Chen Tianxiao, director of the Institute of Aerospace.

Compared to a few months ago, his hairline is much higher, and there are even signs of a bald spot on his head.

But his face was flushed and there was an unstoppable smile in the corners of his eyes.

His voice when reporting to Mr. Zhao was also exceptionally loud.

Yes, it’s really not easy.

The first flight of the first generation of [Predator] was delayed for more than half a month, but the delay was worth it.

Chen Tianxiao led the entire aircraft research team and the aero-engine team to upgrade the single-engine turbofan engine into a variable cycle turbofan engine.

Let the [Predator] generation have the most powerful turbofan engine of this era!

Making the various parameters of the first generation of [Predator] much better than the original design requirements on paper was something Chen Tianxiao had never dared to dream of.

Who could have thought that the Twelve Aviation Engine Guardians, whom he once despised and joked about, would be so powerful that they actually caught up with the progress of the first generation of the Predator and produced the first truly variable cycle turbofan engine.

Chen Tianxiao looked at the vector tail nozzle of the mass-produced version of the first generation of Predator, which had just been assembled, and felt proud but also a little regretful.

The shape of the [Predator] is actually not the best model for the variable cycle engine. In his work computer, there is a more suitable model. If it can be built, his life will be perfect.

Turning his gaze to Li Tang standing beside him, Chen Tianxiao felt it necessary to find time to talk to the dean.

"Yes, I heard from the comrades in the Air Force that this unmanned fighter can truly cruise around the world. The equipment application documents added up to this thickness."

Zhao Changhai gestured with joy on his face, but he had never expected that the 0.5 generation of [Predator] would achieve such a stunning achievement and allow him to go one step further.

Subsequently, the three major fleets were equipped, giving all fleets sailing long distances an air advantage that was previously unimaginable.

After the Air Force had commissioned 100 aircraft, it repeatedly wanted to commission large-scale deployment, but was stopped by him.

Because he knew that Li Tang's first generation of [Predator] was the real unmanned stealth fighter, and it would be available soon.

Unexpectedly, the first flight more than a month ago gave him a surprise.
