Xiao Qianguang and Wang Rong listened to this cost price, their hearts were even more moved, according to their understanding, the reconnaissance performance of the Pterodactyl UAV has surpassed the US military's Predator reconnaissance type, but the price difference is almost ten times, although the pterosaur is worse in terms of air retention ability and stealth ability and carrying weight, but in terms of the small fuselage of the pterosaur itself, as long as it is kept at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters, it is already very difficult to visually inspect it by the naked eye, and things like stealth ability are not so important. The important thing is that its fully intelligent target recognition technology is much more efficient than that of the predator.

"We first ordered 2 Pterodactyl-level, 10 Jingwei-level UAVs for actual combat verification tests, if there is no problem in terms of quality, I think the next step is to install it in the whole army, even if there are some problems, after the improvement we will also promote the equipment of this excellent reconnaissance system, you must make preparations for production, we hope to be able to complete the installation of this system as soon as possible." Xiao Qianguang said solemnly to Dong Feng.

Although domestic military spending has always been not rich, and because of the vigorous tendency to invest in the navy and air force in recent years, the army's equipment funds are even more cramped, but spending a few hundred million yuan can greatly improve the army's reconnaissance capability in forward positions.

"Not only the field army, but also our key border armed police units should also be equipped, for some hot border areas, this reconnaissance system can greatly enhance the anti-infiltration capability of our border armed police, but, I take the liberty of asking, this system is so advanced, have you considered how to protect this secret avionics system if it is destroyed or falls into the hands of the enemy?" Wang Rong added.

"Yes, we have several protection modes to ensure the confidentiality and security of the system: first, if the fuselage is damaged within the visual range, the system will automatically check the extent of damage, and if it is judged that it is impossible to return to the base, the avionics system will be automatically deleted and replaced with a camouflaged avionics system backed up on board.

Second, within the line-of-sight, we can directly issue the system self-destruct program through the ground control system, and directly delete the original avionics system and update it to a backup camouflaged avionics system.

Third, even if the ground system cannot contact the on-board system in the event of strong electronic interference, the on-board system will either return to the base autonomously or activate the self-destruct system and switch to a backup camouflaged avionics system. For example, the foe identification system on the pterosaur also has a primary friend or foe recognition ability, and if it is found through the camera that it has fallen into the hands of the enemy, the self-destruct system will be activated immediately.

Through these methods, the security and confidentiality of our system is not foolproof, but it is also quite protective. What's more, our operating system is a self-developed security system, and the encryption and decryption technology of the application also uses a unique algorithm, to unravel this system, it is more difficult than cracking the US military's Global Hawk system, without the cooperation of a supercomputer system with extremely amazing computing power, and theoretically the use of brute force cracking methods is impossible for ordinary countries to crack. Duke replied.

This uses a lot of alien languages as encryption and decryption materials, which is not at all understandable by the current earthlings, just cracking this layer is enough to make people drink a pot, not to mention that in the encryption and decryption algorithm, Duke almost uses some of the most complex mathematical equations in the Kerry knowledge base, and it is so difficult to reverse crack it, and ordinary supercomputer systems are completely powerless.

"Then we'll be relieved." After listening to Duke's introduction, Xiao Qianguang and Wang Rong both nodded.

After finalizing this matter, Xiao Qianguang and Wang Rong exchanged glances with each other before Xiao Qianguang spoke. "Dean Du, in fact, we are here today because of another thing, we have seen your UAV control system, and we have such an idea, today I came with Minister Wang Rong, in fact, the main reason is to discuss with you whether this UAV control system can be transplanted to our fighters."

"Today, I saw the results of your drone exercises, with the wonderful performance of Pterodactyl and Jingwei, we believe that this problem is actually not a problem, so we hope that you can undertake the unmanned combat mode transformation project of our army's J-7 series and J-8 series."

"In the early stage, we will provide 3 J-7E as prototypes for you to study and transform, and all the development costs will be borne by the final assembly, do you see if there is any problem?"

Duke and Dong Feng were a little surprised when they heard this proposal, commercially speaking, this is a big business, but its significance is completely beyond business, and it is related to a great improvement in our army's air combat power.

Since the development of the third-generation aircraft, become the backbone of the military's air power, the increasingly aging J-7 series has been included in the retirement schedule, but for thousands of J-7 fighters, how to deal with them is a headache for the military, although these fighters have such and such shortcomings, but due to the large number of holdings, the air combat ability is strong, suitable for flying this kind of aircraft pilots are more, even if retired will not be directly scrapped and returned to the furnace, but will choose to mothball, most of them will be in good condition for mothballing, to re-enable when necessary.

After all, although the third-generation aircraft has now completely solved the engine problem and can be manufactured in large quantities, the cost of this kind of aircraft is not cheap, and the manufacturing cost is more than 1200 million units, and the fourth-generation aircraft is even more expensive.

Under such circumstances, how to deal with the large number of J-7 series that still have a certain combat capability in the military is a big question that tests the wisdom of the military.

If Duke can convert them into smart drones, it is clear that Duke will find a good answer for the military as to how to use this kind of fighter.

And this answer, it may bring thousands of transformation contract orders to Dushi Special Machinery Company, although the cost of a single flight transformation should not be too high, according to the current UAV core electronic control system will not exceed one million yuan, with the mechanical transmission transformation, etc., as a whole should not exceed 5 million yuan, but the amount is large, thousands of transformation is a big business of billions.

Of course, for the military, if the transformation is successful, it can spend billions of yuan to make the J-7 series close to manned combat power, and the significance is quite important. Because this means that the military can improve the high-capacity and high-intensity air fire support for the front with the immediate proximity to the land-based perimeter.

Drones don't get tired, think about hundreds of J-7 drones, under the guidance of early warning aircraft in the air, overwhelming and continuous attacks on targets, for the surrounding hostile countries, it is definitely a nightmare. Whether it is Maozi in the north or Ah San in the south, they cannot resist the huge number of locust-like J-7 attack clusters under the existing air defense system.

There are no casualties, and the J-7 UAV is reused without fear of consumption, and the first wave may completely consume all the enemy's anti-aircraft firepower, leaving a fairly safe air corridor for the subsequent roaring J-10C or other advanced fighters, so that these advanced fighters can completely destroy the opponent's air and air defense forces to create the best conditions.

Since it is possible to launch a Jedi attack with no return when necessary, the original weak J-7 combat radius is equivalent to a direct multiplication, with the same combat range as the third-generation aircraft, it can be said that if Duke's UAV system can retain most of the combat power of the J-7, so that the J-7 UAV has a fairly intelligent attack capability, it will have great military value for the waste reuse of the J-7 series.

This huge military strategic advantage is far from being something that can be bought with billions of yuan.
