Tang Fei walked into this large factory, and his first feeling was that there was really a big change here!

Everything has been completely decent, whether it is the equipment required for assembly, or the various tooling required for assembly, all have been in place.

There are already a lot of assembly workers and technicians in the factory, and what is interesting is that Tang Fei also saw some technicians from the Northwest Aircraft Manufacturing Company.

Northwest Aircraft Manufacturing Company mainly undertook the production and manufacturing of the body parts of the first UAV, and Tang Fei promised that when the first UAV entered the assembly stage, they could send some technicians to learn the assembly technology.

Of course, this is to help Northwest Aircraft Manufacturing Company improve their aircraft assembly process technology level, so that they can get in touch with the aircraft assembly process produced by the system.

In addition to these technicians who came to learn technology, the technicians of Jiuzhou UAV Company have already begun to guide the assembly workers to start the assembly of the drone's body parts.

According to the assembly process, the assembly of the drone is divided into two stages, the first is the assembly of the fuselage parts, and then the installation of each system in the aircraft fuselage.

Looking at everything in front of him, Tang Fei said with satisfaction: "Lao Liang, you have done a good job, our UAV assembly plant has been completely completed and can be put into use." ”

Liang Xiaofeng said: "Yes, it has been completely completed, and we have already started the assembly of the body parts of the first drone. ”

"Let's go and see how it fits. ”

Tang Fei strode to the front like a meteor, and Liang Xiaofeng and the others hurriedly followed. Tang Fei walked to one of the assembly stations, where some components of the drone were being assembled.

In the assembly process of the drone, most of the components or assembly work is relatively independent, and after they are assembled, they are assembled, that is, the final assembly of the aircraft.

Generally, the parts are assembled into relatively simple assemblies, then gradually assembled into more complex components, and finally assembled into a whole drone by component docking.

This UAV is designed and developed by the system, fully considering the requirements of use, maintenance and production process, the whole aircraft body can be broken down into many assembly units of different sizes, that is to say, the aircraft body is composed of many assembly units.

The production site is carrying out the early assembly of the drone, that is, some parts are first assembled into relatively simple components, and then more complex components will be assembled from these components, and then the components will be combined into assembly units, and finally these assembly units will be combined together to form the whole drone.

In front of Tang Fei, the workers were assembling the wings and ailerons under the guidance of technicians. It can be seen that although these workers are not proficient in assembly, they are very serious and meticulous, and they are assembled in strict accordance with the requirements of the assembly process.

It doesn't matter if you are not skilled now, after the transfer of the first drone, the workers will gradually become proficient in the assembly work. At present, the key is to assemble in strict accordance with the process flow and requirements, and there can be no sloppiness.

Tang Fei nodded reassuringly, but still advised: "Lao Liang, this is our first drone, we must put quality in the first place, and we must assemble it in strict accordance with the process steps and process parameters." ”

"Boss, please rest assured, we will assemble in strict accordance with the process requirements. Liang Xiaofeng agreed.

The assembly process of the UAV comes from the system, no one knows better than Tang Fei, how scientific and reasonable such an assembly process is, how amazing, as long as the assembly is carried out in strict accordance with the process requirements, there will be no problems.

At the assembly site, Tang Fei not only saw some components starting to be assembled, but also saw a lot of body parts placed at the production site.

For example, the skeleton components of the fuselage, which are composed of ribs, partitions, frames, etc., are manufactured by the Northwest Aircraft Manufacturing Company and arrived here as early as last year.

The skeleton of the body is divided into several sections, that is, several units, and the skeleton of these parts will be assembled and positioned in the frame, and then the skeleton will be fitted with skin or plates, and finally they will be connected to the skeleton by riveting.

In the entire production site, not only some parts have begun to be assembled, but the body parts of the first drone have all been in place and are all placed at the assembly site.

Liang Xiaofeng reported: "Boss, the assembly process is relatively smooth at present, if nothing else, we will be able to enter the final assembly of the aircraft in April or May." ”

The final assembly of the UAV is to install various systems into the fuselage of the aircraft after the assembly of all component units is completed, including avionics system, infrared imaging system, optical imaging system, etc., and even including the power system of the aircraft, that is, two engines with excellent performance.

Tang Fei nodded lightly.

Because Tang Fei knows that as long as the assembly is carried out in strict accordance with the process requirements, there will be no problems in this assembly process, and the assembly of the first UAV should start in April and May.

In the UAV assembly plant, Tang Fei watched very seriously and carefully, stayed for more than two hours, dined at Jiuzhou UAV Company at noon, and went to see the supporting airport in the afternoon.

The construction of the airport is also progressing relatively quickly, and the laying of the runway has been completed, with a total of two long and wide runways, not only the current large UAV can take off and land here, but also in the future even if the production of larger UAVs is larger, they can also take off and land here.

The airport is still under construction, and there are some ancillary facilities that need to be further built, including a drone control center located at the airport.

The world's most advanced and high-tech drone control equipment will be installed there, where the take-off of the drone will be controlled and the drone can be remotely controlled.

Such a control center is planned to be built in many places in the future, all of which are located in military bases, mainly for remote control of UAVs.

…….

The United States, thousands of miles away.

After the U.S. military held a high-level meeting and discussed several topics, they mentioned Jiuzhou Industrial Group and the production of Huaxia's UAV.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the development of Jiuzhou Industrial Group makes us feel very scared, and last year they successfully ranked among the world's top 500, ranking 478th with a total revenue of 10.9 billion US dollars. ”

"At this rate, in a few years, they may be among the world's top 300, or even one of the top 200. It is definitely not good news for us for a Chinese company, especially an industrial group that has mastered a lot of core technologies, to make them one of the world's top 200. ”

"What worries us more is that the UAV developed and manufactured by Jiuzhou Industrial Group, you already have a basic understanding of its performance, this large UAV and our latest successful development of the 'Global Hawk' UAV is basically not much different in technology and performance. ”

"What's very bad for us is that their drone manufacturing plant has already been built, and according to some intelligence, they may have already started assembling the first drone. ”

After saying this, the US military general waved his hand to turn on the projector, showing the production and manufacturing plant of Jiuzhou UAV Company on the screen.

There are a number of satellite photos taken at high altitude, which are displayed in front of everyone in chronological order, some more than a year ago, some a few months ago, and the last two or three months have taken the most satellite photos.

It can be seen that the U.S. military has increased the monitoring of the Jiuzhou UAV manufacturing plant through spy satellites, and often takes satellite photos of the entire plant.

According to the chronological order, it can be clearly seen that the changes in the Jiuzhou UAV manufacturing plant can be seen, as can be seen from the latest photo, this factory has been completely completed.

The area of the whole plant is very large, estimated to be nearly 2,000 acres, the factory is very beautiful, and the planning is also very scientific and reasonable.

After they looked at the photos, one of the American generals said with a very serious expression: "It's a little unbelievable, they are so fast, so fast that we feel a little scared." ”

There are also people who pray, God forbid, I hope that they will encounter a lot of technical problems in the assembly process of the first drone, and the whole process will be bumpy, and it will take five or eight years to produce the first drone.

Since learning that Jiuzhou UAV Company is developing this drone, they have been very concerned, and now they feel even more pressured and a little worried.

The speed of Jiuzhou UAV Company is too fast.

Jiuzhou UAV Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jiuzhou Industrial Group, Jiuzhou Industrial Group has successfully ranked among the world's top 500, Americans also feel a little afraid, they do not want such a company to rise in China, they began to discuss, what measures will be taken to curb the development of Jiuzhou Industrial Group.

……

Tang Fei may know about the Americans' concern for Jiuzhou Industrial Group, and also know the Americans' concerns about their first drone, but Tang Fei will not care about the thoughts and feelings of the Americans.

You must work hard to develop, and you can't look ahead and backward. Tang Fei profoundly knows that without strong strength and scale, everything is empty talk, and you can play how people want.

Of course, Tang Fei did not know for the time being that the Americans were already thinking about how to sanction themselves, with the aim of curbing the development of Jiuzhou Industrial Group.

Tang Fei didn't know about these things for the time being.

In the office, Tang Fei answered the call from Liang Xiaofeng, he reported the assembly progress of the first drone, since the first drone was installed more than ten days ago into the assembly stage, Tang Fei will go to Dongguan City every other day to have a look.

But instead of going today, you need to pick someone up at the airport.

After answering Liang Xiaofeng's call, Tang Fei nodded with satisfaction, then got up and left his office, preparing to go to the airport.

……

Today's three watches, the first one is sent!
