During his three days at the Academy of National Defense Military Strategy, Luo Sheng basically guessed some decisions made by the military.

Because this year is not only the first year of the military-civilian integration strategy, it happens that Luo Sheng in the field of artificial intelligence is currently the best in the country, and the Cote d'Azur Laboratory is known as the "Bell Laboratory" in the East, and scientific and technological achievements in recent years have begun to emerge one after another, and it has received 40 billion US dollars in research and development funding every year.

It is no exaggeration to say that many national scientific research institutions in China are envious, and other scientific research institutions in the world are also extremely envious.

Only Luo Sheng has achieved both, through scientific research investment to obtain technical advantages, through technical advantages to obtain excellent international competitiveness, through core competitiveness to obtain high profits, and then through high profits to feed back scientific research investment, thus forming a benign hematopoietic cycle.

Luo Sheng was also quite curious about the three aspects of the military planning to give him the development of projects on the military application of artificial intelligence.

Yang Hongyi handed Luo Sheng a top-secret document he brought, and the latter unsealed the document and opened it at a glance.

Luo Sheng was surprised when he saw it and said: "Three aspects: sea, land, and air? ”

Yang Hongyi nodded.

Luo Sheng didn't say more, and browsed them one by one, understanding the content first.

Unmanned underwater vehicles of the naval project.

It can also be called an unmanned underwater vehicle or an unmanned underwater vehicle, that is, a military vehicle that is unmanned and navigated underwater by remote control or automatic control.

The military assesses that with the development of unmanned underwater vehicles and related technologies, this military vehicle has a strong space to be used for minesweeping, reconnaissance, intelligence gathering and ocean exploration, and can also be used as an underwater weapon platform, logistics support platform and other equipment in future naval warfare.

At the same time, the military also assessed its strengths and limitations.

Advantage:

Compared with submarines, unmanned underwater vehicles are unmanned combat platforms, so they can greatly reduce the casualties caused by war; Its small size, coupled with the application of other stealth technologies, makes its stealth performance higher than that of submarines; Multi-functional, multi-purpose, low-cost, can be deployed in large quantities and large areas.

Confined:

The poor endurance limits the use range of unmanned underwater vehicles, and the lithium batteries used have technical defects such as easy ignition, and the navigation function needs to be improved.

Powered exoskeleton for the Army project.

The military's assessment is that the military power exoskeleton is an emerging force on the battlefield of the future, and it is an auxiliary equipment to cooperate with human soldiers in combat.

Advantage:

Military powered exoskeletons can improve the battlefield survivability of soldiers in the performance of combat and dangerous tasks, and have the advantages of high intelligence and high combat effectiveness.

Confined:

It does not have the combat capability under complex conditions, and the environmental adaptability is difficult to reach the level of fighting alone, and it depends to a large extent on the operation of human soldiers.

However, in the long run, with the development of intelligent traction mechanization and informatization to a higher level and higher level, the development potential of military power exoskeletons is huge, and its intelligence will be higher, the weapon platform will be more complex, the environmental adaptability and survivability will be stronger, and the war modes that can be participated in will also be diversified.

UAV swarm of the Air Force project.

The military's assessment is that drone swarms consist of several small, low-cost drones equipped with multiple mission payloads, which refer to the collective behavior patterns of swarms and other insects, and work together to complete specific combat missions under human intelligence or supervision.

Advantage:

During the operation, the UAV swarm can be specialized in the division of labor and can perform a variety of tasks; The function of each drone is relatively simple, and the assembly line production can greatly reduce the cost of R&D and procurement; It can increase the number of battlefield sensors and attack weapons, so that the army has a numerical advantage in air equipment in local battlefields, and a large number of UAVs can paralyze the enemy's air defense radar, consume the enemy's limited number of high-cost air defense ammunition, and fight a high-yield battle loss exchange.

Confined:

Due to the higher requirements for coordination and autonomy of UAV swarms, it is necessary to establish a new intelligent control mode for managing large-scale swarms, so it is faced with key technical challenges such as cooperative operation algorithms, inter-individual communication between swarms, and remote intelligent control.

※※※※※※※※※※

Yang Hongyi saw that Luo Sheng understood almost everything, and immediately said: "Of the three military research projects, the most important thing for the military is the UAV swarm project, the future UAV swarm or will tow the air combat equipment to show the characteristics of cheap airframe, platform autonomy, and load miniaturization, which may have a subversive impact on the development of the future aviation equipment system, but this is also the most difficult ......."

When Luo Sheng heard Yang Hongyi's last sentence, he couldn't help but smile in his heart, in the eyes of others, it may be the most difficult, but it is the easiest in his place, and the core technology is artificial intelligence technology, that is, the degree of intelligence.

And now it is no exaggeration to say that Cortana is intelligent enough to do the job.

Luo Sheng closed the document and looked at Yang Hongyi and asked, "Is this an internal bidding project?" Are there any other organizations involved? ”

Yang Hongyi replied: "There are other institutions involved, but they are all part of the modules, mainly the hardware sector, mainly the supporting sector, and the system software level, especially the artificial intelligence sector, no one answers, if you don't connect, there is really no one to answer." ”

Luo Sheng didn't think much about it, and said directly: "No problem, I took these three projects." ”

Hearing this, Yang Hongyi's spirit was slightly lifted, because he heard a strong self-confidence from Luo Sheng's tone, which is not possessed by the heads of other institutions, and referring to his technical achievements in the field of artificial intelligence, the future is even more promising.

After a moment, Luo Sheng added: "But I want to know what is the scale of the military's procurement? I have to know this because it involves the equalization of R&D costs. ”

Hearing this, Yang Hongyi couldn't help but look sideways, Luo Sheng's words interpreted a very critical signal, that is, he never thought about asking the state to give him subsidies for research and development.

This shows that he not only wants to take over this project, but also can do it without losing money without accepting state subsidies for scientific research funds, which is similar to the Boeing model, what kind of equipment the military wants, list the key indicators, and then let the relevant enterprises bid, and come to purchase after the product is developed.

In this way, the subsidy given by the state for scientific research funds is omitted, because the company bears this huge expense.

Yang Hongyi said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about procurement, now that the country is rich, military spending has maintained double-digit growth every year, a large number of weapons and equipment in service are old, and they must be replaced. ”

Luo Sheng nodded, and couldn't help laughing: "That's the same." ”

Yang Hongyi added: "Secondly, the military is not allowed to do business, how to operate enterprises, the military has no right to intervene in your business practices, but there are relevant departments of the state will assess national security in an all-round way, military enterprises can also be approved to develop and export foreign trade weapons and equipment." ”

Export foreign trade is a big business that makes blood, and military export trade is the huge profit among huge profits, but I don't know that the export of weapons and equipment from the United States can easily make profits of more than 400%.

More importantly, as long as a foreign trade-type weapon and equipment is sold, it means that the harvest can be guaranteed in drought and flood every year, because the logistics and maintenance of a piece of equipment are there, and the life span of a piece of equipment is often several years or even more than ten years long.

Obtaining the relevant qualifications and licenses is a legitimate international military trade, and without qualifications, it is arms smuggling, and you will have to go to jail.

However, even so, getting the relevant qualifications does not mean that the product will be sold to whomever it wants, and the specific way to sell it is up to the state to decide, and the company does not count, and the military export trade is different from the ordinary civilian commodity export trade, which involves national security and international relations, and needs to be strictly supervised.

Even if the North American military-industrial giant Lockheed Martin has its F-22 stealth fighter jets all over the world that want to buy them, the price is whatever you want, and Loma also wants to sell them, but it is impossible for the Woods and the White House to export without nodding.
