Chapter 422: Close Cooperation
"Close up? How close is close? In fact, these things are circling around our country's territorial waters every day, but these things are particularly stealthy, flying relatively high in our range, and our radar is extremely difficult to track, and many times they even blatantly invade the interior, but we have no good way to catch their tails. β
Qin Tairan sighed and said, now he is responsible for the research and development of the core departments in the domestic military industry, and the level of intelligence that he can understand is also very high, but it is really embarrassing to be a military worker when it comes to these things. Now that Duke has finally been fooled into engaging in the military industry, it is rare that he is interested, maybe he will come up with a way to deal with these nasty flies, Qin Tairan might as well say a few more words.
"To the point where you can communicate with them with some kind of signal generator?" Duke asked.
"There are strong air defense forces in China, and the distance they fly is quite high, and the general power signal generator is estimated to be enough, and there must be a high-power signal generator or satellite signal similar to control them, but in Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, these places, their air defense is not so strong, and the United States is not so cautious, sometimes they will be very close to the ground, and there may be opportunities to contact them at close range. Perhaps a smaller power signal generator can also approach this kind of thing for communication. It's just that we don't have their encryption and decryption methods, and it doesn't work to just have a signal in it. Qin Tairan replied.
Duke didn't answer Qin Tairan's last question, but then asked, "Is there any specific information about these drones, such as their communication frequency bands, algorithms used and other specific things?" β
Hearing Duke ask this, Qin Tairan really understood this time, and Duke was really interested, but this is the best, the chief has always wanted Duke to put more thought into this regard, this time it is rare for Duke to take the initiative to pounce, of course Qin Tairan will not let go of this opportunity.
"There are no specific things, but there are some principle data collected, and I will ask people to summarize them and give you a copy of the relevant information, but there are not many really useful things, many of them are fragments, all of which are made from various wrecked or crashed fragmentation machines, and we have never captured those high-level complete drones."
Qin Tairan hurriedly said, Speaking of which, these are all top-secret information, but Qin Tairan is afraid that Duke will change his mind.
"Ah, by the way, our most complete information is a Lockheed Martin EP-3 electronic reconnaissance aircraft related information, some things should be universal, but although the software system we have completely copied down, but the domestic research has not been successful for a long time, you can also copy a copy to try it. If it is really cracked, we will save a lot of research and development funds in this area, and take a lot of detours. β
Qin Tairan did not forget his role, and did not ask for some benefits for his company. Although the EP-3 electronic reconnaissance plane is already an antique thing for the United States, the electronic equipment and related systems on the EP-3 plane captured more than 10 years ago are still very advanced for China, and if Duke can crack some of them, it will also play a great role in promoting domestic research in this area.
"Okay, you can bring these materials to me to study and study." Duke said dryly.
"I promise that these things will be studied by one person, and there will be no leaks," Duke added again after thinking about it, "Of course, if we can obtain results through these things, we will share the basic part with the ordnance industry, maybe there are some things that our two families will cooperate more closely in the future, and there is no need to do everything as a family."
For example, the power part, you are strong in this area, you should focus on improvement, if the funds are insufficient, we can provide some research funds, what material needs can be raised, as long as there are fragments of prototype materials, I guarantee that Duch Heavy Industries can be developed through reverse engineering.
And things like electronic systems, maybe our side is stronger, we can share some systems, we can also customize some of your equipment, so that the research and development resources of both sides can be shared to a greater extent. β
Qin Tairan didn't expect that there would be such a big gain from this observation, Duke said this, in the future, the ordnance industry will be in the forefront of most competitive fields with military equipment, after all, a basic material, an electronic system are a very core part of modern weapons and equipment.
"Okay, then we'll settle it in one word, hehe, Duke, Brother Qin has taken advantage again this time, otherwise, Brother Qin will pay for this celebration banquet tonight?" Qin Tairan joked.
"Go, just like a little money to get away from our good things, you are too good at careful calculations, cooperation is okay, we still have to calculate the cost, the software is charged according to the copy, of course, we will not take your power system in vain, everyone according to the laws of the market to do things, after all, it is now a corporatized operation." Duke said angrily.
Duke is not very interested in bulky things like tanks, most of the work he has to do has already been done before, and the rest may be placed on intelligent assisted driving, that is, in some cases, the tank driver can let the tank drive autonomously, perform some automatic evasive actions or normal driving, which can greatly reduce the driver's fatigue.
This driver assistance system is very useful for high-intensity combat or special evasion. That's about all Duke can do for now.
But drones are different, this thing is not many times more technical than tanks, and there are a large number of high-level software systems, which is what Duke is good at, so this time he captured a complete small drone, which made Duke very interested in this thing.
The repositories he swept from the MIT and Harvard libraries played an important role in this drone research process, and after assigning the purpose and subject of the search to Kerry, Kerry automatically reorganized the drone-related knowledge base from the inventory to build a well-categorized base of basic knowledge.
It is precisely because of such a knowledge base that Duke was able to use his accumulation in artificial intelligence and other aspects to quickly develop a new type of intelligent control system on the basis of the transferred drone technology base and the newly obtained small drone, of course, in order to avoid people's eyes, the intelligence level of this system is still a little naΓ―ve in Duke's opinion, and it is far from the real level that Kerry can optimize.
But even so, this new system is already an unimaginably high level in Qin Tairan's eyes.
If he can get some of the current advanced technical information, some things can be accelerated by Duke, and now his accumulation in this area is still too little, it can be said that even the space for imagination is not very large, and he can't use his skills.
This batch of information that Qin Tairan promised to provide, as long as it provides a lot of inspiration for his research and development, it is worth it.
