Rebirth of the Tech Frenzy

\"Attractive function? What is that?\"

"It is a special guidance device. If you encounter a drone, he will memorize the communication channel of the other party, and then imitate the channel of the other party’s command to give orders to the drone. At the same time, a certain range around the aircraft is a radio interference zone. After the drone loses contact, we basically do what we want."

"Can this kind of thing be realized?" Tang Yunfei asked concerned.

Xiang Qianjin said confidently: "You can fly now, and it is very threatening to real people."

"Really, it's better than this. Let me make arrangements. You let your drone fly into an airspace, and then let our fighters simulate the enemy aircraft, and your aircraft will start the drive away mission. Let's see the effect?"

Xiang Qianjin whispered: "Okay, right? The debugging of this aircraft is not over yet, especially if the interference warning equipment has not been debugged well, it may crash early."

Tang Yunfei smiled and said, "Hehe, it’s okay. I can help you. I will find a professional ace pilot. Let’s start with the ground test. First, let your plane fight with our plane. We will send a two-person plane. If you can't stand it, return immediately. What do you think?"

Xiang Qianjin laughed and said, "Well, let me test the strength of the equipment from the ground, and then let's use the drone to test the driving effect of our aircraft?"

"That's okay. See how aggressive your aircraft is against drones."

Xiang Qianjin sighed. He realized that Tang Yunfei had to take a look at the effect of the plane before he would give up. There is no way but to test it first. However, this plane does not have a take-off design. The two little guys only have an air-launch design. Xiang Qiang loaded these two small objects into the belly of a large drone. After watching this large drone take off, Tang Yunfei asked in surprise, "It's not the first time it took off, right?"

"Well, I have already flown a few times. This drone does not do close combat. It mainly strengthens the stealth ability and escape effect, so speed and stealth are its characteristics. As the aircraft lifts off, Because it is an ion engine, there is no ceiling at high altitude. The engine does not stall. It does not need to inhale a large amount of lift. When the aircraft was flying at an altitude of more than 30,000 meters, it notified the target on the ground. The position of the aircraft. The two little guys fell from a high altitude, and only started to ignite after reaching a height of 20,000 meters, chasing the target and flew over!"

"I'll go, so fast! Are these two little guys high-altitude interceptors?" Tang Yunfei looked at the console, and he found that Xiang Qiang's console was still a computer, and it had not yet been truly integrated. This is something that has not yet been mass-produced.

However, although it looks rudimentary, things still look quite tall. After the two small drones caught up with the drone, the two little guys flashed frantically at the cameras they carried, and the lasers were dazzling. On the video screen, you can see the messy light spots flickering, and you can't see the situation ahead.

Tang Yunfei smiled and said: "You can shoot down an airplane like this. You can set third gear. The first gear is just a warning. The second gear is twice as strong as the first gear. The third gear is offensive by the opponent. Action. If the other party fires, you are welcome, full power output is enough."

Xiang Qianjin nodded and said, "Will it be more convenient to use this way?"

"Yes, it will be more convenient. And you can directly lift the restrictions manually. This is what the combat troops need." Tang Yunfei finished, Xiang Qianjin thought for a while and said: "This is, that's good, let's let the drone After I come back, I will start editing."

"When can it be changed?"

"It won't take long, and it will be available tomorrow." After Xiang Qianjin finished speaking, Tang Yunfei smiled and said, "Let your plane fight our ace pilot tomorrow. Let me see the effect?"

Xiang Qianjin thought for a while and said, "Okay! Then try."

Tang Yunfei smiled and said: "In this way, I will take you to our side, and you will take your team with you. If you get our approval for flying, you have a set of five airplanes, right? This can be the master, you can go first. Try ten sets. The price is all right!"

Xiang Qianjin said in surprise: "Ten sets? General Tang, the price of this aircraft's engine is a little bit more expensive than that of a regular fighter jet. The price is probably around 40 million yuan."

"Forty million an engine? With after-sales?"

"Yes, the cost of this thing is too high. This price is also a discount. For example, our drone formation, if our production volume is large, I can compress it to the level of 50 million US dollars. This way. In this case, the purchase price of fifty sets will cost 2.5 billion U.S. dollars. How much can you really purchase?"

"2.5 billion US dollars, you can purchase a full ten formations? This price is indeed acceptable, but there is really a meeting. But you have to prove to us that your thing is good, and it really allows us to purchase."

"At this price, I can only make these ten sets at this price, because it doesn't make money!"

"Then how much profit do you want?"

"I don't dare to ask for more. After all, the army is currently under funding. Let's use these ten sets of production orders first. I really tried my best at this price."

"To tell you the truth, there is no profit at all?" Tang Yunfei asked with a smile.

Xiang Qianjin smiled and said, "So a little bit of petty profit is not conducive to development!"

"I will give you one million dollars every time I make a profit, a set of fifty-five million dollars, can you accept this price?"

"Yes! Acceptable!"

"That's OK, I'll quote you a price of 3 billion U.S. dollars, and the maximum bottom line will be stuck at 2.75 billion U.S. dollars. Is it all right?"

"Okay! This is OK!" Xiang Qianjin nodded vigorously, and Tang Yunfei smiled: "Boy, if you want this order, you have to come up with some skills. I'll give you three days. In this way, I won't have to test tomorrow. , I will give you three extra days, can you let your plane go up to the sky and show us how your drone is organized into a team?"

"This? It's not difficult! But it can't be installed in missiles. We only have simulated bombs and no missiles. We can only make a gesture. We can't use missiles. If we say that missiles are assembled, we still need a production license, if we have a license. It’s okay to assemble it according to our simulated bombs within seven days."

"You kid, it takes me seven days in the blink of an eye? But can you assemble the missile in seven days? The seeker is ready-made, mainly the engine and the warhead. This requires permission, we have at Huayan It is not a problem to produce a batch of missiles with this capability in seven days. After all, if we only test and use this kind of missiles, there is no difficulty. Mass production still has problems."

Speaking of Xiang Qianjin, Tang Yunfei said in surprise, "Don't you have guns and no bullets? What use is it for us to purchase so many airplanes?"

"After all, this kind of aircraft is not mass-produced. When mass-produced aircraft, we just put down the drawings. We have manufacturers that produce missiles. At most, we are responsible for coordinating it. It is not difficult."

Hearing Xiang Qianjin's words, Tang Yunfei smiled and said, "That's OK. I'll give you seven days, but tomorrow I will see the plane go!"

Xiang Qianjin smiled and said, "Okay, you can contact the air traffic control for me. Our plane will land after our engineers and workers pass by!"

"Your plane will fly to us by itself?"

"Well, our plane flies by itself. We have our own test runway and can take off at any time."

Tang Yunfei nodded, and he whispered: "Do you also have another type of aircraft that Mr. Chen said?"

"Yes, it is a pure air combat drone. But the cost is too high! The unit price has exceeded 100 million, and it is still a drone. And the prototype is currently too tight to get funds. No money!"

Tang Yunfei hurriedly said, "Why is it so expensive? Don't you say that your solution is not the best solution?"

"Yes, the price/performance ratio is very low. But Director Zhou said, you will like this kind of data, because this engine can be built with four engines, and a single thrust can be enlarged to ten tons, which means that the thrust of forty tons. , But because of the dual problems of batteries and fuel, the aircraft is large and dead, and the ammunition capacity can only be regarded as the level of a medium-sized fighter. And the cost is extremely high. The only advantage is that because it is large, it can be equipped with a large enough on-board computer. Free air combat can be carried out. There are many benefits. The ceiling height limit for air combat is very low, as long as it does not fly out of the atmosphere."

Tang Yunfei blinked and asked, "What are you saying..."

"As long as there is enough nitrogen, it does not need air. Part of the nitrogen is needed. The oxygen content does not matter, the key is to ionize the gas. As for this drone, the communication and battery issues are not considered, this guy You can fly wherever you like to fly. But the speed of flight is still quite fast. It can fly at high speed, because it is an automatic variable flying wing, so you can adjust your own wings according to the current state. If the air combat capability is solved by the computer, then Basically, we can target human beings."

"It's only 100 million? Why don't we build more? The planes we sell are similar! You don't need a pilot!"

"I haven't finished talking yet. The advantage of this aircraft is that it can be commanded by the pilot and exist as a pilot's wingman. A pilot can carry two wingmen. In other words, the original five fighters in a formation are supporting such unmanned aircraft. After the aircraft is equipped, the pilot can command ten. In this case, if we use the super large high-altitude early warning drone for reconnaissance, this combat platform can achieve a perfect combination of manned and unmanned. That is, unmanned. The basis of combat." Xiang Qianjin talked about the heat, Tang Yunfei pointed Xiang Qianjin's finger and said: "You kid don't give me anywhere, get me out of this kind of plane!"

"My old General Tang! This requires at least our own aircraft to solve our own problems. This requires our own aircraft to reach the level of fourth-generation aircraft. At least the command aircraft is also a radar stealth combat aircraft. At that time, unmanned combat aircraft. , With the stealth penetration capability, this new type of synthetic combat platform doesn't know where it is going!"

"The fourth-generation aircraft, our own?" Tang Yunfei looked at Xiang Qiang hesitantly. Xiang Qiang nodded and said: "The drone order can support our engine. If I make a breakthrough in the improvement of the engine of the second plan, we The batteries can be sold, and our engines can continue to be upgraded. Our Huayan can let you support them."

"Haha, have you eaten me? Yes! I promise you, I will place an order for you as much as possible. But you also have to promise me that your engine and your second plan aircraft must be given to me Realize! Hybrid oil and electricity, I must see it!"

"Yes! Don't worry, my project for the postgraduate entrance examination is to study this engine, and then it will be enough to fly into the sky as the power of the space shuttle."

"Your kid is really interesting, okay! Are you going to give up the traditional rocket completely?"

"Don’t you think that traditional rockets are very different? Once launched, it’s finished. Even if it’s reusable, it’s just sending some satellites back and forth. In turn, the aerospace plane can carry out simple planetary flight. And if equipped with heavy element nuclear fusion reactor, Skyplanes can run wild in space, at least they can fly in the Kuiper belt, right?"
