As a cross-era person, what Qin Chuan can do is to propose a correct research direction for this era, so that he can avoid detours.

For example, change the ME163 to a missile...... The idea of the ME163 powered by a rocket engine is very good, because it has the advantages of low cost and fast flight speed. However, if it is a manned aircraft, it is inevitable that there will be shortcomings such as rocket fuel being highly toxic and highly corrosive, the pilot being too dangerous, and not having enough reaction time.

These shortcomings led to the pilots flying the ME163 wearing special protective suits and oxygen masks, and even then carrying out the mission with a certain intention to die.

And if the ME163 is changed to a drone, these shortcomings are basically non-existent...... A drone is actually a missile, just like the V1 is actually a small plane that can fly to a target autonomously.

This is the role that Qin Chuan plays in it, guiding the research and development in the right direction, so that it will not waste too much time and cost, and more importantly, the war losses caused by the lack of suitable equipment to counter the B17.

Similarly, Qin Chuan's proposal of "miniature radar and other methods to automatically find targets" is also the right direction...... Qin Chuan didn't know how to develop it, but he knew very well that this was the right direction.

Of course, people in this day and age will find this incredible.

"Automatically looking for targets?" Conrad's eyes widened and he looked at Qin Chuan: "You mean to say that we only need to launch ME163, and it will search for targets and hit it on its own?" ”

"Yes!" Qin Chuan nodded.

"It's a crazy idea!" Hannah couldn't help but laugh: "Sounds like ...... Technology from aliens! ”

"How is this possible?" Conrad asked.

"Why is it impossible?" Qin Chuan asked rhetorically: "We have developed an autopilot system like V1, and we can even use radio control to adjust our flight attitude, right?" ”

"Yes!" Conrad said, "But it's a far cry from automatically looking for targets!" ”

"So ......," Qin Chuan said, "why can't we install a small radar in V1, which can search for and select one of the targets, and it can get the position of this target, and then compare the position with the direction of V1 and respond accordingly?" ”

Conrad nodded and said, "You mean...... If the position of the target is to the left of the V1 warhead, it will automatically fine-tune to the left, otherwise to the side? ”

"Yes!"

"Very interesting idea!" Hannah looked incredulous: "And it does sound doable!" Like what...... We installed a miniature radar on each wing of the ME163, so that they would measure their distance to the target, if it was not facing the target, the distance measured by the wings would be one large and one small, and we would have to make corresponding fine-tuning! ”

Hannah's statement made Conrad and Qin Chuan look sideways, not to mention whether this method can make it finally and accurately hit the target, at least this idea has changed the cross-era concept of "automatic target finding" from "impossible" to "possible...... It's easier to do, it's not as complicated as you can imagine, and it does fine-tune in the direction of the goal.

It took a while for Conrad to come to his senses and exclaim, "Wow, Major, you've almost taken us to a whole new realm, I thought I knew enough about V1, but now I'm just getting started." ”

Qin Chuan can understand Conrad's thoughts, this is like learning, the more you learn, the more you will find out how ignorant you are.

Of course, in Qin Chuan's eyes, of course he knew and always knew that V1 was just starting, or it could also be said to be primitive. But for Conrad, he thought that he had mastered the most advanced technology on the planet, or at least the most advanced in this regard, that this was the end of V1, and then suddenly found that there was still so much room for development waiting for him to explore and study.

"So, what are the other ways?" Hannah asked expectantly.

"You should ask us why we need the other way, Hannah!" Qin Chuan said: "Just as we are prone to interference from the enemy with radio guidance, this radar guidance is also likely to be interfered with by the enemy!" ”

"Yes!" Conrad nodded and said, "Guided by other methods can avoid interference by the enemy to some extent, for example, we can use infrared guidance from the target engine...... In this way, when the radar is interfered with, it can be guided in a different way and continue to work normally! ”

Qin Chuan didn't feel strange when he heard infrared guidance, because at this time Germany had been studying infrared for a while, specifically in the thirties, the main research direction was night vision devices to make various equipment have night combat functions, bumped and took many detours, and finally rushed to install night sighting equipment for anti-tank guns and tanks in World War II, it is said that there is also a single infrared night vision device, because it is used at night, so it is called "vampire".

However, it also did not play much role because the equipment was too late and the scale was not reached.

"Major!" Then Conrad laughed, "Any idea what that means?" If we succeed in developing this kind of equipment, we can not only stop the enemy's B17, but also apply it in other directions, such as the enemy's warships, tanks, etc., how did you come up with this? It's simply ...... God, I can't find the right words to describe it! ”

After a pause, Conrad asked Qin Chuan, "Major, are you with us?" ”

"What?" Qin Chuan didn't understand what Conrad meant.

"I plan to set up an R&D base in Algeria!" Conrad said, "Just like before! ”

Qin Chuan understood the reason why Conrad wanted to set up a base in Algeria, ME163 was used to deal with B17, and now the most common place to find B17 is Algeria...... The US bombers broke into Algeria twice in three days and bombed with impunity.

Qin Chuan looked at Hannah.

Qin Chuan wanted to go with them, on the one hand, because Algeria was obviously safer than on the Eastern Front, and on the other hand, he knew that Hannah, as a test pilot, would definitely participate in the research of this project...... Just like the study of V1, the unmanned aircraft was commissioned by test pilots.

But......

"I'm sorry, I can't go with you!" Qin Chuan said: "I can't play a role there, if I can play any role, it is to be your guard, and many people can do this!" ”

Qin Chuan said that he was telling the truth, as he said before, what he could provide was the direction of development.

Hannah looked a little disappointed, but nodded in understanding... Because she is also a person who does her job for herself.
