"Well, it's really not enough to have only one aircraft gun besides the missile. Adding two multi-barreled machine guns is enough. In some cases, it is impossible to use missiles, and the power and mobility of aircraft guns are somewhat insufficient. It is better to use Machine guns are better."

Yang Haisheng also agreed with this plan.

Indeed, there is only one cannon on the UAV besides the missiles. It would be too wasteful to use missiles in certain situations, such as dealing with independent small targets, but the cannons are not enough to catch it. Two machine guns, that's much better.

A group of people soon came to the hangar, and saw the staff began to collect relevant data on the drone.

Mr. Huang and Mr. Li walked over briskly, first looked at the collected data, then walked under the fuselage of the drone, and examined it carefully.

After turning around the plane, the two nodded:

"There is no damage to the fuselage."

"Mr. Huang, Mr. Li, you see that this stage of the test is completed, shall we start the next stage?" After hearing what the two elders said, Xu Ziling said, "I and Captain Zhang on the 'Liaoning' A little friendship, let me see if I can test takeoff and landing on an aircraft carrier by the way?"

"Are you sure that people will agree?"

Both Huang Lao and Li Lao looked at Xu Ziling.

They were not surprised that he and Captain Zhang knew each other, because they knew that he had been on the "Liaoning", but they didn't know how his relationship with Captain Zhang was, so they asked this question.

Aircraft carriers don't think about other military units. You don't even need to think about it. There are reconnaissance satellites from many countries staring there every day in the sky. It is not a trivial matter for a new type of aircraft like a drone to land on it.

"I can contact you first."

Xu Ziling didn't know what to do, so he could only try to communicate first.

"Okay, it's best if you can finish the test once. You can contact me to see if it doesn't work, then wait for us to apply."

"Ok."

Let Liu Long and Nie Yunjie continue to lead the crowd, and he walked away alone.

When he came to a quieter place outside, he took out his confidential phone and contacted Captain Zhang directly.

"Captain Zhang, hello."

"It's not about the order. I have a personal matter. I would like to ask you for a favor."

"It's like this. There is an aircraft in the military factory. I want to test the takeoff and landing on the aircraft carrier. Do you think it is suitable?"

"Okay, thank you very much, then I will prepare now, and I will contact you later for specific matters."

Knowing over the phone that the "Liaoning" is now in the South China Sea, Xu Ziling proposed to test take-off and landing of drones on the aircraft carrier.

Although there is no specific mention of UAVs, Captain Zhang thought that the carrier-based aircraft must be able to board the aircraft carrier. Apart from the J-15, there are no other types of carrier-based aircraft in China. This time Xu Ziling’s side If such a request can be made, it must be the development of a new carrier-based aircraft.

Of course, he welcomes the development of new models of carrier-based aircraft by Chinese people, so he agreed to Xu Ziling's request without much consideration.

"'Liaoning' is now in the South China Sea, Captain Zhang agreed."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Ziling ran back to the hangar and said to Huang Lao and the others.

"Ah."

Mr. Huang nodded, then turned around and asked Yang Haisheng:

"How about the tanker? We'd better finish testing other items here before going to the South China Sea."

"It's settled, and the plane has already taken off, so you can go there at any time."

Although Yang Haisheng is a major general, in front of Mr. Huang and Mr. Li, he is just like Xu Ziling in front of him. He is of the younger generation. He answered Mr. Huang's questions immediately.

"That's fine, check the drone right away and take off in half an hour. It should be about the same, Lao Huang."

Listening to the questions and answers of several people, Mr. Li said on the sidelines.

Huang Lao nodded:

"enough."

The two oldest ones had already made such a decision, and of course the others would have no objections, so Xu Ziling informed the staff to prepare quickly.

Temporarily thinking about the weapon, he dragged another staff member to explain:

"Let the ammunition depot send a box of aircraft gun ammunition over and load it."

Then he led Huang Lao and others out of the hangar and went to the control center to wait for the new test to start.

"Why do you let people load live ammunition?"

Back at the control center, Yang Haisheng pulled Xu Ziling aside and asked.

He didn't expect that Yang Haisheng heard what he just whispered to the staff, and there was nothing to say about this matter, so he stated his purpose openly:

"It's not easy to hang missiles now. I want to test the cannon first. Besides, the South China Sea is not calm anyway, and maybe I can get some benefits. This way, I will be prepared."

"..."

For his thoughts, Yang Haisheng glared at him, walked back to Mr. Huang and the others without saying a word.

But Xu Ziling was a little at a loss, and didn't know whether Yang Haisheng agreed or disapproved. After thinking about it, there was no result, so he walked back into the crowd.

Half an hour passed in a flash, and soon there was a report from the control center that the hangar was ready.

The voice sounded, and everyone didn't need Xu Ziling's order. The staff began to enter their respective posts, and Mr. Huang and the others also began to sit down in the auditorium.

And he himself sat down at the position where the control terminal was placed.

The big screen in the hall still shows the scenes in various airports such as hangars and runways.

With all the units in place, the ground crew inside the hangar drove the drone out of the hangar with a tractor and headed for the runway outside.

Soon the drone was on the runway again, and the ground crew immediately let go of the plane and stopped it on the runway, while they evacuated with a tractor.

System start, satellite connection, communication connection, system check.

Seeing that the drone stopped on the runway, Xu Ziling immediately started to move his hands.

After a series of preparatory work, he controlled the aircraft to start, and checked the parameters of the aircraft again through the system. The drone immediately began to taxi on the runway, and then quickly accelerated.

Pull up the steering lever, the front and rear landing gears leave the ground quickly, and the drone takes off smoothly again.

"External signal request access, verification result: air tanker."

When the landing gear of the drone was retracted into the cabin, the staff in charge of communication in the control hall reported.

Hearing that it was a tanker, Xu Ziling immediately said:

"Come in."

"This is H-6, it has arrived at the designated location."

As soon as the communication was connected, a voice came from inside.

"Then you wait there, it's estimated to be three hours."

Hearing this voice, Xu Ziling was overjoyed and couldn't help but start joking.

This is a public channel, and the external voice is also used in the control hall. The conversation between two people can be heard by everyone.

Everyone was taken aback when they heard Xu Ziling's words, and then realized that they must have run into an acquaintance.

"Damn, I knew it was you, and it will take three hours, why don't I go back and have dinner first?"

Hearing what Xu Ziling said, the people in the communication channel were silent for a moment, and then said bitterly.

It turned out that the person opposite was Lin Jianbin. Xu Ziling had been busy for the past six months and didn't have much time to go out. He and Lin Jianbin only had a few phone calls.

Unexpectedly, he was the one who was in charge of the air tanker this time. After not seeing him for a long time, Xu Ziling made a little joke with him.

After hearing his answer, everyone in the hall, even Huang Lao and others, laughed, and the originally serious atmosphere relaxed a lot.

"Why are you today?"

Hearing Lin Jianbin's indignation, Xu Ziling didn't care, and asked with a smile.

"I picked it up myself. I heard it was your mission, so I thought of you. I didn't expect it was really you. What's the fun this time, tell me quickly."

What Lin Jianbin said was true. When Yang Haisheng contacted Mr. Lin, he happened to be with his father. He heard that he was cooperating with the mission of the military factory. He was already quite familiar with Xu Ziling, so he immediately thought of the military factory. It's not that I got a new plane, so I recommended myself to take over this task.

"I told you first, then there will be no surprises later, it will be here soon, you can see for yourself, and quickly pass the permission command to me."

While manipulating the drone to fly to the previously set coordinates, he chatted with Lin Jianbin.

"Don't be so mean."

Lin Jianbin was obviously very dissatisfied with Xu Ziling's answer, "What is so precious, you can see it right away and still keep it in front of me, tell me quickly, or I won't give you permission."

"Then I won't tell you. You can give me the permission later when you see it. Don't worry, you will be able to see it in five minutes."

Xu Ziling was determined to make Lin Jianbin anxious, even under his threat, he would not compromise.

"..." Facing Xu Ziling's actions, Lin Jianbin was silent for a while in the channel, and he could tell from the heavy breathing that he was fainted, "Good boy, when I get off the plane, I will kill you!" Go, let you look good."

"Ha ha……"

Listening to the two people playing tricks on each other, everyone in the hall couldn't help laughing and laughed.

"Okay, I'm scared of you, let me tell you, it's a drone."

Hearing that Lin Jianbin was furious, Xu Ziling told him now, and his hands were not idle. He controlled the "Yinglong No. 8000" to climb to the designated altitude of [-] meters, and quickly approached the tanker at a high speed of Mach [-].

Lin Jianbin was very surprised when he heard that it was a drone. You must know that the drone itself has the characteristics of a long range, and domestic drones have not made much progress in this area. It seems that the military factory has developed related drones. Technological development for this test.

While thinking like this, remembering what Xu Ziling said to arrive in 5 minutes, he looked at the radar. It didn't matter, but he found a situation that made him dumbfounded:

The radar showed the signal point representing the drone, approaching him at an abnormal speed, and he calculated in his mind that this speed definitely exceeded Mach 3.5.

What drone can fly at such a speed at an altitude of 8000 meters?

He couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with the radar on his side.

He patted the radar screen and checked it again, but found no abnormality, so he yelled in the channel:

"Are you sure it's a drone? Not an alien flying saucer? How come it's approaching so fast?"
