Chapter 712: Gray-Black Shuttle

The original intention is good, and the idea is good, but it's not perfect. Wu Hao said in a timely manner: "It is right to encourage young scientific research and technical personnel to innovate in technology, but we must pay attention to ways and means. Otherwise, if you don't get it right, you will not only get angry and resentful, but also drag down the entire company. Therefore, this matter must be cautious, and a practical plan must be discussed.

In this way, you go back and communicate with the technician below again, and submit a plan that you think is feasible.

As for me, I will collect the opinions and ideas of some grassroots scientific researchers in other scientific research and technology departments, and then summarize and discuss them, and come up with a preliminary plan.

Then, this preliminary plan will be sent down, solicit everyone's opinions for revision, and some people will be invited from many grassroots scientific researchers who put forward opinions to discuss together, and then formulate a feasible plan that everyone can recognize. ”

Hearing his words, Lin Jiaming and Zou Xiaodong also nodded and stopped talking. This may seem like setting up a fund, but it's actually a very complicated affair.

Sometimes this money is not easy to give, and problems may arise if you are not careful. This is especially true in such a large company with a large number of employees.

Zou Xiaodong took the lead in recognizing it because Wu Hao did not make a hasty decision, which is also what he wants to see. As for Lin Jiaming, this matter was originally one of his proposals, and Wu Hao didn't refuse it immediately, which was already very good, and now he agrees to discuss it, which is already a success in itself.

Chatting and chatting, a staff member came in to inform that it was time for the test flight of the intelligent unmanned fighter.

Immediately, under the leadership of Lin Jiaming, several people came to the control tower of the airport.

The control tower at the airport is 36 meters long, which is almost as tall as a 10-story building. The tower is composed of three parts, namely the base, the tower body, and the tower command center.

One of the real important is the airport command center located on the top of the tower, which is divided into two floors, the first floor is the airport dispatch command center, and the second floor is the aviation command center.

Wu Hao and the others took the elevator to the top two floors, which are very wide, and the huge surround glass of 360 degrees allows them to see the entire airport and the entire base.

Even, standing on the tower and looking into the distance, you can see the launch frame set up on the rocket launch site in the distance and the blue and white "Jianmu No. 1" rocket.

However, everyone's eyes are now completely attracted by the gray-black body of the No. 3 prototype of the intelligent unmanned fighter on the airport runway of the tractor tow lane.

Inside the hangar, probably because of the lights, the prototype No. 3 you see is a black livery with a reflection of writing. Outdoors, the paint on the third prototype turns a dark gray, or more like gray-black, depending on the light.

And in Gaodu, everyone also saw the shape of the No. 3 prototype clearly for the first time. It's not a simple delta-winged aircraft, but rather something like a dart, or a shuttle. It's just that the shape is relatively flat, somewhat like the head of a cold weapon red tassel gun.

There is no raised cockpit on the drone, nor does it have the big heads of other drones, and the fuselage presents a very smooth streamlined shape.

In the tail of the fuselage, a double vertical tail design is adopted, and the aircraft is powered by an aero engine. Unlike the general UAVs that use a single jet, this No. 3 prototype uses a double-linked, double-jet, single-rectangular port design.

That is to say, this drone uses a dual aviation engine, and the tail spray is concentrated in a rectangular nozzle, which is a bit like a rectangular appropriate amount of nozzle in F_22.

Also because of the double-engine design, the volume of this intelligent unmanned fighter is relatively large, and it can be said that it is about to catch up with the volume of ordinary single-engine light fighters.

This is also the largest drone developed by Wu Hao so far, which is also a very huge challenge for them.

Seeing Wu Hao's interested eyes, Lin Jiaming introduced with a smile: "In the process of developing this intelligent unmanned fighter, we have received strong support from the aviation industry department. For example, the aviation engine used in this fighter, as well as the radar, are provided by the aviation industry company.

In addition, in terms of large-scale components of UAVs, they are also forged by our national super-large forging presses.

Of course, on this basis, we have also made some innovative designs. For example, the rectangular nozzle of this intelligent unmanned fighter is made of advanced ceramic metal materials.

This material is not only very strong, not easy to deform, but also very resistant to high temperatures, it can maintain very high strength at extremely high temperatures of 7,000 degrees, which is incomparable to other materials.

In addition, it is the fuselage, and we also use advanced adhesion materials on the fuselage, and also use a new nanocomposite coating, which not only greatly improves the stealth, but also can adapt to the high temperature caused by the friction with the air during flight.

It is also because of this, coupled with the sufficient power brought by the two aviation engines, that this intelligent unmanned fighter can reach Mach 0.9, which is already a very top speed in UAVs.

Of course, this is only in the initial test flight stage, and we are confident that we will increase the speed of this intelligent unmanned fighter to more than Mach 1, making it the world's first unmanned combat aircraft. ”

I think our army seems to have a supersonic drone

? Zou Xiaodong asked.

That's right, the one you are talking about is a supersonic high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, and our supersonic unmanned fighter, there is still a big gap in this.

Wu Hao ignored the content of the conversation between the two, but focused on this intelligent unmanned fighter, and then asked his question.

Although the volume of this intelligent unmanned fighter is relatively huge, it adopts a delta-wing shuttle structure design, and is equipped with two aero engines, and the fuselage can be used to load weapons. It can't be in the form of a plug-in, so what is the meaning of this stealth design?

Hearing Wu Hao's question, Lin Jiaming responded with a smile: "The question you raised is indeed a headache for us, so after our continuous optimization of the design, we have set up two internally filled magazines on both sides of the belly close to the aviation engine.

Each magazine can hold two medium missiles, or three light ammunition. This bomb load is already very considerable in the case of fighters of the same volume, as well as large UAVs.

Of course, if necessary, we can also set up three external hardpoints under the wings and belly to carry more attack ammunition and thus carry more strike missions. ”
