Chapter 1184 [Too Advanced, Forbidden for Commercial Use]
Today, Shunfeng led a delegation to visit the headquarters of Kunpeng Technology, as a potential big customer and may become the first commercial order, Chu Changxing should come out to receive it, but in fact, it was Zhou Yang who received it.
What did Chu Changxing do?
He was not in the new city at the moment, but had gone to the southwest of the country in order to advertise there.
Because the day before yesterday, he happened to see on the news that the military was carrying out a military exercise in the southwest, and Chu Changxing rushed over as soon as he learned of the incident, focusing on one who did not wait for the military to come to the door and took the initiative to sell it to the door.
It is hoped that during the exercise, he will be able to undertake the task of transporting materials for the army, and he intends to take this opportunity to demonstrate the advanced performance of the large UAV developed by himself, and it is also convenient for him to sell business to the government and enterprises.
……
At about 3 p.m. local time.
At the scene of the military exercise, the exercise had ended, and Chu Changxing, who was waiting on the periphery, suddenly received news that the military leaders were in a hurry to see him.
Chu Changxing once thought that the drone he was selling had dropped the chain during the acting, and he was quite nervous for a while.
Just saw the military leader, the leader directly pointed to the cargo pod on the ground and asked Chu Changxing: "You thing, is it a cargo warehouse or something else?" ”
Hearing this, Chu Changxing hurriedly patted his chest and said, "This thing is for delivery." Delivered directly from the air with precision and with a parachute, the effect is very good, and we have tested it repeatedly, and it will definitely not drop the chain. ”
The military leader nodded and did not squeak, but kept staring at the cargo pod painted with the Kunpeng Technology logo.
After a while, Chu Changxing, who didn't understand the situation and didn't know what caused him to feel uncertain, couldn't help but ask carefully: "Chief, nothing went wrong with the transportation airdrop, right?" ”
Hearing this, the military leader said: "Did you get it, but not only did you not drop the chain when performing the task, but the effect was very good." ”
When Chu Changxing heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it was good that he didn't drop the chain, he was really nervous just now.
At this moment, the military leaders looked at the cargo pod in front of them, and the more they looked at it, the more they felt that this thing looked like a missile, plus this type of drone had a range of up to 5,500 kilometers and a ceiling of 7,000 meters, and it could also accurately empty the cargo compartment.
Isn't this just a bomber? Is there a difference with a bomber?
……
The next development completely exceeded Chu Changxing's expectations, the drone he brought to participate in the military exercise, was detained by the military on the spot after the military exercise, and at the same time stopped Kunpeng Technology from manufacturing and using this cargo drone, and it was not allowed to be used for civilian use without permission.
Chu Changxing was also invited to tea, and the military leaders asked him to report in detail on the performance parameters of the "Kunpeng-5C" large UAV.
In this regard, Chu Changxing naturally answered truthfully in front of the big guy.
Then the leader asked the production cost of the "Kunpeng-5C" UAV, and learned that the production cost of a single UAV with such excellent performance was only 3 million yuan.
Military: Deler, bring it to you!
Isn't your company making this thing just to make money, what's the use of the people? Directly place a military purchase order for you, and the entire castrated version of the foreign trade model will come out to help you export and sell to large dogs, which will not only make your company's R&D investment wasted, but also earn more.
I'm planning to invest heavily in the research and development of military unmanned bombers, so I'll send a pillow if I don't fall asleep.
With Chu Changxing's "explanation" of the details one by one, the military leaders did not expect that there would be more surprises, and learned that the current performance of this "Kunpeng-5C" UAV is deliberately compressed in order to control costs, that is, there is still room for improvement in performance?
If the cost factor is not considered, the maximum range of this drone can reach 8,000 kilometers, the maximum ceiling can reach 10,000 meters, the maximum speed is 355 kilometers per hour, and it can fly continuously for 45 hours.
Okay!
Civilian use should consider saving money and cost, but the military does not need it, at least the cost issue is not the first priority, but more need is performance, the military leadership directly asked to improve the performance to me, to fill the performance.
In view of the fact that the current version of the model is only 3 million yuan, no matter how much the cost of the upgraded version increases, no matter how high the cost of the military upgraded version is, it is impossible to have a fraction of the cost of a conventional aircraft.
Change the color and paint it, and then the logo of Kunpeng Technology is worn off and replaced with the military's own logo, and the cargo pods under the wings are replaced with a row of genuine missiles, which is a proper military-grade long-range unmanned bomber.
The maximum range of the UAV itself can reach 8000 kilometers, this range has reached the range threshold of intercontinental missiles, and can fly directly from the mainland to Xiawaii, America, if you add the mounted ballistic range of 1000 kilometers, it is 9000 kilometers of attack range, and the limit can even fly directly to the west coast of America.
And this is just a cheap drone, the flight speed similar to that of high-speed rail and the speed of sound dozens of times the end of a real ICBM, it can be called a turtle speed, but it is too cheap to stand it.
The price of a missile is higher than it, and the cost of an ICBM is not known how many such drones can be built, and the maintenance cost is particularly cheap, and the existing production lines of private enterprises can be used.
Chu Changxing's detailed "explanation" surprised the military leaders more than that, and at this moment he was telling several military leaders who were questioning: "...... In our design concept, the model is dual-use, the military level can also be mounted unmanned sub-aircraft, each aircraft weighs more than 100 kilograms, can replace the parent aircraft in dangerous areas to carry out reconnaissance tasks, sub-aircraft can also hang bombs alone to perform combat missions, if necessary, it can also be released as a bait to the mother machine to block the gun. ”
"In addition, the UAV can also achieve intelligent cluster control, satellite remote control and other functions, with the ability to detect and strike, the pilot does not need to get on the plane at all, you can control it by playing with the computer in the base, and the operator can control several UAVs at the same time to perform tasks......"
One of the military leaders said: "Don't think about this drone for civilian use, this is a real military product." ”
Chu Changxing scratched his head in embarrassment and politeness, and said weakly: "It's also ha, if this thing is bought by the old iron fellows in the Middle East and then changed, even if it is a primitive civilian cargo model, it will greatly interfere with the local situation, which is equivalent to selling bomber-level drones in fact, and selling them so cheaply......"
The military leader said with a smile: "This drone is forbidden for military use, but your company is still allowed to produce and use drones, but the maximum load capacity and limit are limited to 20 kilograms, the maximum range is limited to 30 kilometers, and the flight speed does not exceed 20 m / s." This indicator is enough for civil logistics, and it is necessary to engage in urban terminal distribution, and long-distance freight between cities is still honest and practical ordinary plane consignment. Technology research and development is almost on the line, there is no need to be so rolled. ”
The leader added: "Otherwise, it's not appropriate for you to let this kind of big guy fly around the country like an overwhelming one, and you can buy and sell at will......
Chu Changxing, who said this, scratched his head again honestly, and was speechless for a while.
After drinking tea, Chu Changxing also returned to Xincheng, but the drone he brought over failed to go back with him.
There is no going back, and the military has to stay for further research and more rigorous testing.
