In the blink of an eye, it was winter again, Xu Ziling stood at the end of the runway of the military factory airport, looking at the surrounding grass was yellow, and he sighed.

Time flies, and five months have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past few months, many things have happened around us: the smooth introduction of allies in military factories, the establishment of technical exchange institutions, the completion of the modification of carrier-based aircraft, the successful design and development of heavy transport aircraft and the establishment of a complete production line, and the successful birth of unmanned attack aircraft prototypes.

In terms of allies, in the end, Mr. Yang introduced the two companies to agree to all the conditions proposed by the military factory and became shareholders of the military factory.

The status of the owners of these two companies is on par with that of the Yang family, except that one is in the military and the other is in the political world.

When negotiating related matters, Xu Ziling did not participate, firstly, he did not like to be exposed to these things, and secondly, he did not have time.

It was only when the last two sent managers that he, the core figure of the military factory, came out to meet.

It's not that he's affectionate, it's mainly because he has too many things to do in the past few months. In particular, heavy transport aircraft and UAV projects.

Both of these projects are new, and some of the techniques are completely new, and the researchers below can't understand them at all, and they all need to be done by himself.

So in the past few months, he has been going back and forth between the military factory and the University of Science and Technology.

"What? Not sure? ”

A voice interrupted Xu Ziling's emotion.

After months of hard work, the prototype of the stealth drone finally appeared, and today is its first flight experiment, so many people, including Xu Ziling, came to the big airport of the military factory and waited for the results of this test flight.

And the person who spoke was the representative sent by one of the new allies who joined this time.

The management of the military factory was deeply influenced by Xu Ziling, the boss behind the scenes, and they were

Towards the younger, and the military factory itself, whether economically or in some aspects, whoever participates, is equivalent to owning a chicken that lays golden eggs.

Therefore, it is impossible for these two allies not to pay attention to this matter, and when they saw the young management of the military factory, they each sent the best young people of the younger generation in their own families.

Hearing the voice, Xu Ziling turned his head to look at the person who spoke and smiled.

The person in front of him is in his thirties, his name is Liu Long, and his family is also in the military circle like the Yang family, and an old man in the family is also a colleague of Old Man Yang, and the two were in the same army when they were young, and they have been old friends on the same front until now.

Maybe it's because of the gathering of likes, although Liu Long has an extraordinary family background, but he has also gotten along with Xu Ziling many times in the past few months, and feels that he is the same as Yang Kaiming, he does not have that kind of lofty appearance, on the contrary, he is very bold, and after work, even the most ordinary security personnel in the military factory can chat.

"I didn't think about it, I just saw that the grass was yellow, and a few months have passed, and I haven't taken a few days to spend with my girlfriend, isn't it a dereliction of duty."

The people present were all concerned about the first flight of the drone, but Xu Ziling was not worried about messing up at all because of the lion's scanning, and seeing that everyone didn't talk much, it was a little dull, so he made a little joke.

"Damn, you are the least qualified to say this, I watched you and Ruolan kiss me and go back together when I got off work yesterday."

This time it was a manager sent by another ally, named Nie Yunjie.

Being able to become a top family in domestic politics will definitely not come for nothing, so when selecting the representatives of the garrison factory, it must have been a detailed understanding of Xu Ziling and their group of young management, so Nie Yunjie, who was sent over, was not much different from Liu Long in terms of personality and behavior.

In the past few months, they haven't gotten along with Xu Ziling very much, but they are in the same place, and they have learned about each other's xìng characters when they meet from time to time, and now they don't have many scruples when they talk.

"Ha Lu Ha ......"

There were many people present, not only all the high-level leaders of the military factory came, but also Huang Lao, Li Lao, and Yang Haisheng.

They also heard the conversation between Xu Ziling and Liu Long, and when they heard Nie Yunjie's rebuttal, they couldn't help laughing.

Everyone's good-natured ridicule reminded Xu Ziling that he did go to work with Yang Ruolan every day and got off work, and he was really not qualified to say such a thing.

Touching his nose with some embarrassment, he quibbled:

"I mean, it's been a long time since I've been shopping with her, is that wrong?"

“……”

The small laughter suddenly washed away the previous dull atmosphere, and everyone was no longer silent as just now, and the atmosphere became a lot more relaxed.

The preparations are for those specialized personnel to come to Cāo, and these people who can stand here only need to see the results, so when they came to the airport, they did not enter the control hall as soon as possible, but walked around the airport runway while waiting for the completion of the preparations.

"Shadow Dragon 1 is ready, and it starts to leave the hangar, ready to enter the runway."

It didn't take long for Xu Ziling to hear the report of the people below from the walkie-talkie in his hand.

"Shadow Dragon" is the code name of the unmanned attack aircraft, and "One" represents the prototype.

The sound of the walkie-talkie was very loud, and everyone heard the report.

"Hey...... It seems that I don't need to say anything, everyone please enter the control hall, and the first flight will be carried out immediately. ”

Seeing that everyone was looking at the walkie-talkie in his hand, Xu Ziling smiled at everyone and said.

"Let's go!"

There was no need for him to say hello, Huang Lao, Li Lao, Yang Haisheng and others, who couldn't wait, took the first step and walked towards the terminal.

Before a group of people reached the terminal, the "Shadow Dragon One" pulled by a tractor from the hangar on the side happened to run into them.

Although it has been a while since the prototype came out, seeing this dark gray unmanned fighter again, everyone can't help but be proud and shocked in their hearts.

The Shadow Dragon has a wingless layout, which is the same as in other countries, with minor differences.

Its entire fuselage is thirteen meters long, but the wings have reached nearly fifteen meters, the fuselage is made of a new type of titanium alloy at one time, and the outer coating is a new type of nano stealth material, which can absorb radar scanning signals well at the same time, but also play a real stealth effect for a certain period of time: disappear from the naked eye.

In terms of power, the high-engine optimized from the "Global Hawk" power is used, and the twin-engine is used, which can make the aircraft only use a single engine when cruising at low altitude, and can run two engines at the same time at high altitude, easily breaking through Mach 5.

Because the fuselage adopts a new type of alloy, when fighting or cruising at low altitude, the thrust of a single engine can also make the aircraft easily cross the limit of Mach 0.9 when flying at low altitude, reaching a speed of Mach 1.5.

In terms of communications, it is the use of satellite and "Hawkeye" radar dual channels.

The two approaches are adopted because both schemes have certain advantages and disadvantages, and the combination of the two is perfect.

Military factories do not have their own satellites, and they are a nominal private enterprise, but when they are manufactured, they must only be sold to the state, and they can only use the national military satellites for communication, which is doomed to trouble in this regard.

Fortunately, under the operation of Huang Lao, Li Lao, and Liu Long, the relevant matters were negotiated with the military, so that the project continued.

One of the most important functions of the UAV is to go deep behind enemy lines, so it is destined to have a long range, the UAV is different from other fighters, because it is not controlled by anyone on the aircraft, and it needs to be achieved through the command of the satellite, so it alone can achieve the conditions or not.

In this way, it is necessary for the orbit change satellite to be able to contact the aircraft at all times to achieve this goal, otherwise the aircraft will be controlled before it flies over people's heads, and it will be a tragedy.

However, although there are many satellites in my country, there are few military orbit-changing communication satellites, so if you want to rely on one satellite to run drones all over the world, it will definitely not work.

Therefore, Xu Ziling took these into account at that time, and at the same time adopted the communication method of the "Eagle Eye" radar, although the distance of a single set of "Eagle Eye" is not very far, but as long as it follows a large electronic reconnaissance aircraft like RC-135, and cooperates with the orbit change satellite, then it is no problem to circle around the earth.

As for the remote control and avionics system, the software is all made by the lion, and he refers to some large-scale flying games, and makes the most simple and convenient design of this cāo interface, so that the cāo crew can be familiar with the entire system without too much time, and the cāo is a drone through the remote control terminal.

In addition, in terms of weapon assembly, because of the requirements of the UAV's stealth, its ammunition cannot be exposed on the outside of the hardpoint like the general fighter, but hidden in the auxiliary.

Due to the use of the "Eagle Eye" system, the huge radar system used on other aircraft can be completely discarded on the UAV, so that there is a considerable amount of space in the fuselage.

And Xu Ziling made use of this space, in addition to increasing the fuel storage space, completely used it for weapon assembly.

After his manipulation, the "Shadow Dragon" placed a 30-mm cannon with 1,500 rounds of ammunition in the direction of the air intake pipe in front of the nose, and installed a hardpoint on each side between the nose and rear landing gear under the belly, and two hardpoints under the wings on both sides of the same horizontal line.
