weapons expert

No matter who it is, the first impression of Fan Yi is that it is serious and stable, but since he knew Xu Ziling, in front of Xu Ziling, these two words have nothing to do with him.

As long as Xu Ziling said something to him, there were very few things that could keep him from losing his composure, and each one was more incredible than the other. RQ-180, to the outside world, no one even knows how long its wings are, but why can it be easily "captured" in his hands?

"I'll send someone over there right away to get it back!"

Confirming that this is true, Fan Yi immediately made a decision!

"Wait..." Xu Ziling said immediately, "I have an idea, would you like to hear it?"

"What idea? Say it!" Not to mention that Xu Ziling got the plane, even in normal times, Fan Yi was very polite to him. If he had an idea, of course he had to listen.

"I don't know how the research on 'Global Hawk' was done last time?" Xu Ziling didn't say what he had in mind, but instead asked a question that seemed irrelevant to Fan Yi.

"Some progress has been made." For a while, Fan Yi couldn't figure out what the connection was, but he knew that Xu Ziling must have his intentions, so he hesitated for a moment, but he still said it.

"Oh! Listening to your tone, it seems that the progress is very slow! Have you ever thought that it has been more than half a year, and the Global Hawk has such a research progress. Then add another rq-180, and it will take another When will there be results? Not to mention the 'Shadow Dragon' reconnaissance plane, there must be someone above who is researching it, so they can be busy?"

For the delivery of the reconnaissance aircraft, Xu Ziling could imagine that there must be a research team conducting reverse research on it. Compared with the RQ-180, the "Shadow Dragon" has an absolute advantage, not to mention that there is a complete Global Hawk in front of it. In his opinion , When it comes to technology, you must not be too ambitious, just focus on one general direction, or just one model. Three drones involve thousands of technologies, and there are too many of them in common. If they are divided into three Is it too wasteful for the project team to conduct research on them?

Starting from rq-180, he didn't want to hand over this thing to the higher-ups, but had other plans. In order to get Fan Yi's approval for his idea, he didn't hesitate to use such an embarrassing issue as "Shadow Dragon" as an example.

For some reasons, it is normal for things produced by military factories to be cracked and reversed. Fan Yi understands such things, and Xu Ziling also understands them, but it is difficult to bring them to the surface. Xu Ziling suddenly pierced the window paper, which made Fan Yi blush, but he was more concerned about the reason Xu Ziling said.

"Some things are not good if they are many." Xu Ziling ignored Fan Yi's embarrassment at this time, but continued, "To be honest, it is a great achievement that our country can thoroughly study the Global Hawk. , as for rq-180 and shadow dragon, they are not something that can be eaten..."

It's not that Xu Ziling looks down on those experts, but the country's foundation is too weak. The aviation field has only really developed vigorously for more than 30 years. Coupled with the technological blockade, the country's foundation in this area is weak, and now it has achieved the most It must be very difficult to decipher advanced things, let alone carry out several such reverse research projects at the same time. After all, there are only a few top aviation technology experts in China, and they all focus on this matter. It's not cost-effective, and in terms of some technologies of "Shadow Dragon" and rq-180, it is completely an upgraded version of "Global Hawk" technology. If China wants to study these thoroughly, it may not be successful in 50 years.

But what if you start with a simple one, and then develop a new technology from it?

Among the three models, the "Global Hawk" can be said to be the simplest in terms of technology, but it is known to the world. Today's mainstream and most advanced drones, although the stealth ability and flight speed are not as good as the "Shadow Dragon" and rq -180, but it is undeniable that its excellence is well known.

Taking it as a research object is relatively simple, the possibility of fully mastering it is greater, and the time is short. If you study it thoroughly within three or two years, you can vigorously develop more advanced technologies from this basis. It is much faster to master the other two models, and the possibility of catching up with the world's leading technology is also the greatest.

Once it is fully rolled out, it will cause the dispersion of manpower and material resources, which will greatly reduce the progress and greatly increase the time. Maybe by the time it is fully mastered, the technology has already been updated, and in the end, it is found that what I have mastered is not enough. Again, outdated technology and a waste of time.

"'Global Hawk' is a mainstream model. Its technology is not top-notch, but it is definitely top-notch. It is definitely better to study this type, fully master it in three to five years, and then develop new technologies on this basis. Come quickly. Technology is the same as eating. You have to eat one bite at a time. If you want to eat a bowl of rice in one bite, you will only have the possibility of choking to death." Xu Ziling didn't have too many scruples, and he spoke mercilessly .

"Someone must have said that as long as we have a thorough understanding of the rq-180 model, we can catch up with the Americans. Those are all bullshit. If I remember correctly, rq-180 has been in service since it proposed the theoretical design. , It’s only 8 years, but can we master the technology within [-] years? It’s probably very difficult... In other words, even if I can master it, after another [-] years, will the other party come back? Has a new replacement model been researched? We just got it and haven't had time to put it into use yet, and it's still outdated technology?"

"But it's different to specialize in 'Global Hawk'. It takes a short time to produce results. Based on this, it will be developed faster, and it will be put into use quickly. It will be mastered in three or two years. But what can be achieved is also very close. In addition to some technologies that I have produced here, after eight years, it will definitely be much better than only mastering theoretical technologies. You also know that mastering technologies is one thing, and being able to It is another thing to use it maturely. Knowing how to make this thing does not mean that it can be made. Therefore, a single attack is definitely much better than a full-scale attack. You can't chew it. !"

Although Xu Ziling would find a suitable reason every time he showed his technology, but at his age, he was obviously too showy, so when he was in the military factory, he tried his best to hand over the work to the lower people, and also avoided talking with the upper class. People, or some domestic experts to keep a "low profile", but people at Fan Yi's level naturally understand.

After some incidents, they have long regarded Xu Ziling as the most powerful technical expert in the country and even in the world. Regarding what he said, whether it is a suggestion or a request, the upper-level meeting has made it clear that they must pay attention to it.He said so much eloquently, which made Fan Yi feel thought-provoking, and at the same time, he vaguely knew Xu Ziling's intentions.

"What you said sounds reasonable to me, but I can't decide this kind of thing alone." After a long silence, Fan Yi on the day of the call spoke in a deep voice, "But I will pass on your suggestion Report it, why don’t you tell me what your plans are? Now that you’ve said that, you must have an idea about this plane, but don’t say you want it, it’s definitely not going to work.”

Hearing this, Xu Ziling smiled silently in his heart, "What do I want this thing for? Put it in my place, and I think it takes up space. Didn't you say before that you want to show your prestige? So I just want to be more majestic, put this thing It's up for auction."

"auction?"

Once again, Fan Yi felt that he must have a strong heart to talk to Xu Ziling, otherwise he would really be frightened to death by him, not to mention capturing the drone, but there is actually an auction?Isn't this a slap in the face of an American?As a hawk, he felt that such a move was really relieved, but he was still reluctant to throw out the meat he got. He wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, Xu Ziling spoke.

Xu Ziling probably guessed what was in his mind, and said: "About rq-180, I took a look at it before. To us, it is completely tasteless and does not have much research value. First, the technology and the 'Shadow Dragon' 'Compared with 'Global Hawk', it has no advantage at all; second, it is a bit more advanced than 'Global Hawk' in terms of stealth and speed, but the difficulty of research has increased a lot. As I said before, spending time on this is not worth the candle. In general, it is more than the top and the bottom is more than the bottom, and no matter how advanced his stealth ability is, he can't hide from our radar. So it's better to sell it, so that not only can he slap the Americans in the face, but also let them It’s not so arrogant anymore, and we can get some things we want from other countries.”

After finishing speaking, he thought of something again, so he added: "Of course, before selling him, I will make a detailed evaluation of him, and we will have a plan for how to deal with or defend in the future."

"Can you make a detailed assessment in a short period of time?" Fan Yi saw that Xu Ziling's words had reached this point, so he didn't say any more, but asked about the assessment. The reason why he didn't want to let go had a lot to do with it. One reason is that even if you don't study it thoroughly, you still have to figure out some of its advantages and disadvantages, so that even if you encounter it in the future, you have the means to deal with it.

"'Eagle Eye Satellite' has many functions. To a certain extent, this guy is an anti-satellite weapon. It is very simple to use it to invade drones and other satellites. This time I am controlling the drone. I used it, so now I can familiarize myself with the system of this drone at any time, and it will be very fast to produce a detailed and reliable evaluation data.”

Xu Ziling replied.
