02020202 100 million can build a reconnaissance aircraft that circles the earth, it is simply equivalent to picking it up for nothing, you must know that the Global Hawk UAV captured by Lu Dao a while ago, now the cost of a plane is as high as almost 200 million US dollars, and it is one billion in exchange for Celestial Coins, not to mention the performance of the aircraft, just say that in terms of this range, it is absolutely willing to come out with 100 million.

02020202 So Xu Ziling didn't worry about it at all.

02020202 chose "Shadow Dragon"

When designing the scheme, due to the limitations of modern production technology, the UAV paid attention to stealth capabilities and combat effectiveness, and the stealth function, once turned on, fuel consumption and "Flying Eagle"

When the fighter turns on vertical take-off and landing, it is very serious, so the range is greatly shortened.

02020202 from the original point of view, it is already very rebellious for UAVs to have such performance, but now after the affairs of the United States, Xu Ziling feels that it is not enough, and the range of UAVs should be able to cover the whole world!

02020202 in this way, when there is a need for war, the UAV can attack any target on the earth, and now although it can be done, but that requires the logistics support of the air tanker, in this way, it has virtually increased a lot of danger, after all, the target of the tanker is too big, once it is discovered by the enemy aircraft, it is basically impossible to escape at its speed.

0202020202 "These things can't be rushed, but now we can let some of them start research in this area, if it doesn't work in one year, it will be two years, and if it doesn't work in two years, then it will be completed in three years." ”

02020202 "See"

He thought like this, and the lion gave him a trick in his mind.

0202020202 "Well, sufficient range is the direction of development of drones, and I remember that there seems to be a nuclear reactor as a power in the program?" Why don't you just come up with this plan? ”

02020202 nuclear-powered aircraft, this plan was proposed decades ago, but due to many problems, it will not be too advanced to come up with such a plan now.

02020202 But there are really a lot of problems to be solved, if you want to load on the drone, the miniaturization of the nuclear reactor is a problem, and the cooling technology, the ship can use seawater, the nuclear power plant can use the seawater of the river or the sea, the aircraft is a fast-moving equipment, can not connect to the water source, can only use air cooling technology, but this technology is not good at all now, so I want to solve the problem of cooling, This would have to lead to a more in-depth study of air cooling technology.

0202020202 "Go talk to Director Zhang?" ”

02020202 Xu Ziling really didn't know if he could achieve these things with the existing skills and magic power in the plan, after all, he didn't know about the skills in this area, and he didn't know how specific the Lu Dao was, so he remembered to ask Zhang Yuanchao in the laboratory.

02020202 in his opinion, before Director Zhang came to the military factory, he had worked in another national aviation research institute for decades, and he should have some understanding of this aspect.

02020202 out of his office, he went to Zhang Yuanchao's office, but he didn't see his people, asked others, and learned that he had arrived at the "Flying Eagle"

The project department went, so Xu Ziling ran over there again.

02020202, "Mr. Zhang, let's go back to the office, I have some questions I want to ask you." ”

When he came to the project department, he saw that Zhang Lao had nothing important to do there, so he simply pulled him back to the office.

0202020202 Zhang Yuanchao since he brought this group of unambitious researchers to the military factory, the whole person is completely different from the past, the original time, if there is a project in hand to carry out research, the examination and approval of funds has made him extremely nerve-wracking, not to mention that sometimes the funds are approved by the state, but in the hands of the superiors, they have to find an excuse to deduct a part of this kind of thing, in short, the work is always carried out to make people feel shrinking.

02020202 And now?

As soon as he came, he let him be in charge of the entire laboratory, give whatever he wanted, no need to worry about funding at all, just need to do things with peace of mind, of course, what made him more comfortable was that he took over the drone project from his beginning, and then it was "Flying Eagle"

, heavy transport helicopters for these projects.

02020202 people like him have been studying technology all their lives, and the salary can be wanted, and the treatment can be wanted, but there must be a "big"

project, in less than a year, the military factory has made such a few projects out, so that these days, he can't wait to go without sleeping every day, so that he has a feeling that the sky is high and the birds are flying.

0202020202 "What's the matter?" Do you have to pull me back and say? ”

02020202 the two of them don't have the concept of bosses and subordinates, watching Xu Ziling pull him back, Zhang Yuanchao was a little unhappy.

02020202 "Your old man doesn't have anything important to do there, what are you doing there?" ”

Xu Ziling said angrily, "I'm on business, are you familiar with air cooling?" ”

0202020202 "It's okay, the aircraft is more mature in this regard, why are you asking this?" ”

Hearing that it was a serious matter, Zhang Yuanchao stopped joking with Xu Ziling, and said it seriously.

02020202 "Nuclear power!" ”

02020202“……”

Hearing this word, where would Zhang Yuanchao not know the reason why Xu Ziling asked this question?

He still remembers this project vividly, because he had come into contact with some of the design drawings of the Russian nuclear power project, which were obtained by the Chinese people from Russian secret means at that time, and originally wanted to conduct research in this area in China, but the investment required by this project was far beyond the capacity of the country at that time, so it could not be established.

02020202 "This thing is not easy to get, you should also know that the United States and Russia have lost in the hands of this thing, why do you want to get this thing?" ”

02020202 "I have considered this problem before, and the current fighter has an additional range in terms of design and materials, but why not think about it in terms of raw materials?" As the space age enters, I feel that this will be a direction for future development. ”

02020202"That's right. ”

Zhang Yuanchao also agrees with his point of view, with the increasing development of science and technology, aviation gasoline, kerosene and other fuels obviously can not cope with the requirements of aircraft, looking for new power drive methods is an inevitable trend, "but you have to consider, if you really want to study this side, even if a country does its best, it may not be able to afford it, are you ready for this?" ”

02020202 Zhang Lao's words, to put it more tactfully, this aspect in the world, can only be said to start, as he said, a country wants to invest in such a project, want to achieve something, absolutely not a little financial and material resources can make something, a country is like this, that for a military factory and a private enterprise can really achieve?

02020202 According to normal people's ideas, Zhang Lao's worries are indeed correct, but what he doesn't know is that Xu Ziling has lions and has a ready-made plan.

02020202 "If I have a plan, of course, only theoretically, can I find someone in the relevant field to verify it first, and then conduct a reverse study?" ”

Xu Ziling asked tentatively.

02020202 "the same as the UAV scheme?" ”

Xu Ziling often came up with some plans, and all the people who knew him were already surprised, all thanks to his demons, and never suspected that he got them from elsewhere, because these skills are not available in the world, and Zhang Lao is the same, hearing Xu Ziling say about the plan, he asked calmly.

02020202 "Pretty much." ”

02020202 "If that's the case, then you can start trying, there are detailed theoretical data, it's not difficult to reverse research, but it's a little troublesome to find a suitable production process for mass production, you take things out first, I have an old guy who is more familiar with nuclear fusion, I'll show him, if the theory can be passed, then we set up a team to tackle the problem, but you have to be prepared, such a project will not be like a drone, three or five months can be made." ”

Zhang Lao groaned for a while, looked at Xu Ziling seriously, and said to him.

0202020202 "That's no problem, I plan to produce results within three years, and I'm satisfied." ”

Xu Ziling shook his head and said with a smile.

02020202 UAV program, originally he deliberately came up with according to the production level of the current era, and mass production will naturally not be long before it can be realized, but nuclear-powered aircraft, this is completely the first project in the world to miniaturize a nuclear reactor, everything is a new technology, and the production process naturally needs to be explored by everyone a little bit, not to mention the fuselage, it is such a small nuclear reactor, how many processes do you have to make it?

02020202 so Xu Ziling thinks that it is already very good to be able to solve the problems of the important part within three years.

0202020202 "It's good if you have such an idea, when the plan comes out, you give it to me, and I'll help you take it to my old fellow." In addition, if the plan can be demonstrated, then the manpower side will have to be re-founded, and this project needs too many nuclear experts, which we don't have here. ”

02020202 "It's good." I came up with the plan in a hurry, and I wanted to find a way to do it. ”

02020202 returned to his office, Xu Ziling began to let the lion call up the plan, the UAV's wings more than ten meters long are not a small model, and the nuclear reactor that can be used on it can also be used on other fighters.

02020202 so-called nuclear power, is the use of controllable nuclear reactions to obtain energy, so as to obtain power, heat and electricity, when we all know, nuclear has a very large pollution and radiation, once there is a nuclear leakage, it is a matter of endangering human life, so in terms of safety, it is also a problem that needs to be solved in research.

0202020202 Otherwise, who would dare to fly into the sky with a plane with a reactor that is not very stable?

0202020202 large-scale nuclear reactors, as early as a few decades ago put into civilian use, in this area of technology is relatively mature, but miniaturization has always been a problem, belongs to the state of the beginning, military factories want to develop in this area, not only need to invest financial and material resources, manpower is still a problem, this area of talent is not the same as the dynamics of these aspects of the people, as long as it is out of the relevant professional schools.
