Hearing the invitation sent by Chief Shen, Kang Chi couldn't help but ponder for a long time, and finally shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I feel that these two projects may not be very suitable for me......"

Hearing that Kang Chi actually refused, Chief Shen was suddenly a little surprised.

Serving as the chief engineer of such a national key scientific research project is an honor that many people dream of, and it is almost unprecedented to be in charge of two at a time......

However, with Kangchi's current achievements, this kind of glory may not be very attractive to him.

But all along, Kangchi has been committed to promoting the country's scientific and technological progress, and its love for the country and the people is well known.

Is there any reason to refuse this appointment?

If you want to talk about money, although Kangchi is not necessarily the richest person in China now, it should be about the same, and money is basically a number for everyone at this time.

And the biggest effect of the size of this number for him should be how much research he can do.

But with Kangchi's current achievements and status, if it is a project he proposed, as long as it is not too outrageous, the funds must be well approved, so this is not a big problem.

Thinking of this, Chief Shen tentatively added: "If you are accustomed to conducting research in the way of private enterprises, we can also promote these two projects by placing orders with private military enterprises, and even directly seconding manpower to your company......

"Not that problem."

Kang Chi hurriedly explained,

"First of all, the Yun-30 project has a turbofan-30 and carbon fiber T1200, which should be a matter of course, and it is not a big difference whether I participate or not."

"As for the project ...... of the H-20S"

Kangchi hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to tell his plan now: "I personally am not very optimistic about this traditional bomber project, and at the same time, there is a certain conflict with the planning of a drone carrier customized by myself......"

"Drone carriers?"

Kangchi nodded, briefly explaining his vision.

"Even if the stealth performance of the bomber is good, when it fires weapons to attack, there is a great possibility that it will expose itself, I assume that a B2 sneaks into our sky smoothly and does attack, do you think we will not be able to detect him? Can it go back? ”

"In my opinion, the bomber is a strategic deterrent equipment, and if there is no absolute air supremacy, it is a disposable tool like missiles...... So what I want to develop is an unmanned stealth bomber. ”

Chief Shen was silent for a moment.

In fact, the idea of unmanned warfare was put forward a long time ago, but it was only a small-scale attempt due to the limitations of technology and cost.

And unmanned equipment has a fatal weakness: communication jamming.

Once the equipment is interfered with by the enemy's communications, the combat effectiveness will plummet, and it may even fail directly, and the reliability and risk are too high.

Therefore, most of the current unmanned equipment is used as a one-time prop, and it is developing in the direction of large quantities and low cost, and it can indeed become a powerful weapon for positional tug-of-war.

After all, this kind of large amount and cheap thing will be interfered with if it is interfered with, and it will not affect the overall situation.

However, high-end strategic equipment such as fighters and bombers has always been more trusting of people.

If expensive equipment is interfered with, the decline in combat effectiveness is still a trivial matter, and if it cannot be returned, the loss will be great.

And to put it mildly, realistically,

Human life is sometimes not valuable.

Even in modern society, only in times of peace, we will pay attention to humanitarianism, and if we really fall into war and become red-eyed, who can take care of humanitarianism?

How much is a human life worth?

Hundreds of thousands, millions?

Can it be compared with hundreds of millions, or even billions of equipment?

Although it is a bit ruthless to measure life with money, reality and war are so cruel, and it is true that many soldiers can be avoided from sacrificing with unmanned equipment, but is this really beneficial to winning a war?

Even those who play photography often joke that the machine is there, and it is better for people to fall than for the camera to fall.

Not to mention the fact that the fighters treat expensive weapons and equipment.

Therefore, Chief Shen did not immediately express his support for Kangchi's proposed plan, and after pondering for a long time, he said: "The research and development of military equipment will always have only one main purpose, that is, to improve combat effectiveness, and then other factors will be considered on this basis. ”

"If the main purpose of this plan is to improve the combat effectiveness of the equipment, then I will definitely support it unconditionally, but if you mainly want the fighters to be able to hide in the safe rear and reduce the possibility of the fighters dying...... Then I'm afraid I won't be able to agree with this plan. ”

"From the moment we joined the army, our soldiers are ready to sacrifice their lives for the country at any time, take the bomber you just now as an example, if you really encounter that situation, our soldiers will definitely be willing to use their lives to fight for the slightest possibility of flying the plane back, even if this possibility is only 0.01%...... We are not afraid of death, but we are afraid of losing! ”

Chief Shen's words made Kang Chi feel a little shocked.

It was the first time he had felt so directly the courage of a Chinese soldier to look at death as if he were at home.

To be honest, he was somewhat affected by the Xindu incident when he formulated this plan, so the main original intention, as Shen had guessed, was to allow the soldiers to fight in a relatively safe rear.

However, although the main original intention is indeed this, hiding in the rear does not mean that the combat effectiveness cannot be improved.

As long as the most critical communication problems can be solved, the combat effectiveness of unmanned equipment will only be stronger than that of manned equipment.

For example, in the traditional fighter design, you have to consider whether the pilot's body can withstand such a large acceleration, but the unmanned fighter does not have this concern, and the weight of the aircraft can be reduced a lot by removing the manned equipment, so as to continue to improve the performance of the aircraft.

After Kang Chi organized the language, he slowly spoke: "The two points you said are actually not contradictory in my plan. ”

"In this plan, the core problem is actually wireless communication anti-interference, as long as this key problem is solved, the best of both worlds can be truly realized, so I plan to complete the small bypass ratio engine and shock engine in the future, I will go all out to study a new wireless communication technology."

After listening to Kang Chi's explanation, Chief Shen was immediately relieved.

Being able to get to the essence of the problem shows that Kangchi did not make this plan on the spur of the moment.

But the question is, is it so easy to develop a new wireless communication technology?

"How sure are you?"

"To be honest, I'm not very sure this time."

Kangchi said very frankly: "I have always been based on the theory of my predecessors to improve my practical application ability, but this time is a little different. ”

"At present, almost all wireless communication technologies are based on the application of electromagnetic wave theory, but even the most powerful electromagnetic wave communication technology has the possibility of interference, and if you want to study a wireless communication technology that is impossible to be interfered with, I find that I can't seem to find a feasible theoretical direction......

Kangchi is best at making things, that is, the application field of scientific and technological theory, but without theoretical support, he can't even make the lowest physical objects.

If he can't make a physical object, then no matter how powerful his system is, it won't be useful.

Therefore, the first thing he has to do is to break through the theoretical bottleneck of wireless communication technology, which even means that he has to make a breakthrough in the existing physical theory.

So this time, Kangchi, which has been smooth sailing, found that it seemed to have encountered unprecedented challenges.

After Chief Shen pondered for a moment, he spoke: "I don't know much about academic things...... So I can't give you any help, but if you need the help of the Chinese academic community, or what experimental equipment to use, you can apply directly to Chief Lu. ”

"We can indeed hand over the Y-30 project directly to Dong Jun, but the H-20S project, I personally prefer you to be in charge, even if you want to make it an unmanned bomber, I think it's a good attempt, if you want, wait until you get the communication technology and then come over to preside over the work."

Kang Chi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "But I'm afraid that the progress of my side will be blocked and the progress of the project will be delayed......"

"It's okay, do you think anyone who builds planes is as fast as you?"

Chief Shen said with a smile: "You can make a general request first, and let them study it on their own first." ”

Seeing that the leaders had said this, Kangchi did not refuse anymore and took over the banner of the H-20S project.

"In addition, the small bypass is more than the engine, I think you can hand it over to someone else to be responsible, anyway, the technology is the same, use the technology of the turbofan 30 to build a turbofan 25, I think the problem should not be very big, and we are not in a hurry to do this."

"As for the technology of the shock engine, you may not know, this is the technology we have mastered, although it may not be very mature, but with your PG01 structural ceramic material, it is very close to the maturity of the technology, and we can share relevant technical information with you at that time, which may be helpful to your UAV carrier plan in the future."

"In this way, you can focus all your energy on wireless communication technology, and I wish you early success!"

"I try as hard as I can."

"Well, when you work, you should also pay attention to the combination of work and rest, take care of your body, your drone carrier plan, I will also help you prepare a case when I go back, if there is anything that needs support, whether it is funds or materials and manpower, just tell me."

"Speaking of which, I do have a request...... That, what is Mr. Ren busy with now? He has more experience in building aircraft carriers, and if he can, I want him to come over and help me design a drone carrier, and the preliminary work in this area can be carried out simultaneously. ”

"No problem, I'll talk to him the day after tomorrow."

After the matter was finalized, the two leaders went back to Yanjing together.

And Kangchi has one more thing to do before returning to Dongyang.

Yinhe's domestic airworthiness license has come down, and he can finally take Yinhe back, if Kangchi wants to drive it himself, he has to let Li Xiangnan and them conduct basic flight training for themselves.

In fact, as far as Yinhe is concerned, no one knows better than Kangchi, even if Kangchi is not trained, it will definitely be able to drive, but the leadership is not at ease, and although Kangchi can drive, it may not be able to drive, especially in the fixed-wing state, it still requires certain operating skills.

It's like a game designer, although he can design games, he knows the rules of the game and even the bugs.

But when it comes to really playing, it is often abused by professional players.

As for flying a plane, Li Xiangnan is the top professional player.

After entering the familiar cabin, Kangchi sat in the main pilot's seat, sucked in the seat belt and activated the system.

Tick –

[The aircraft starts the self-test and the status is normal]

Li Xiangnan, who was sitting in the co-pilot, looked at Kangchi and felt much more nervous than when he was flying the plane.

"Mr. Kang, do you really want to fly the plane yourself?"

"That's for sure!" Kang Chi nodded decisively and said, "I made all the toys I made myself to watch you play, and my heart was already hungry and thirsty." ”

Li Xiangnan: "......"

After Kangchi was a little familiar with the console, he turned on the communication system and said: "No. 0 Yinhe calls the tower, the preparation is completed before takeoff, and the application for take-off is completed!" ”

"The tower received it, and it was allowed to take off."

So Kangchi had already held the hand of the electric door pusher and began to gently push it up.

As the electric gate gradually increased, the propeller became faster and faster, driving the silver crane to slowly rise into the air.

When the electric valve push rod slides into the middle gear, the aircraft will be steadily suspended in the air for five meters, and then push up if you want to fly up, push down if you want to fly low, and after completing the height adjustment, you will return to the middle gear if you want to stabilize the altitude, which is similar to the operation principle of the electric gate of the DJI aerial photography drone.

Under Kangchi's control, the buildings on the ground began to slowly become smaller, which made him feel a little excited.

Although there have been a lot of planes in the past two years, it is the first time to fly a plane in person, which is like riding a car and driving, and the experience is completely different.

Driving along the road, you can still have a sense of self-control and freedom, let alone flying a plane.

At first, Kangchi mainly flew in the form of a helicopter towards the designated flight airspace.

Li Xiangnan, the co-pilot, has been moving frantically back and forth between Kangchi's hands, dashboard, and front windshield glass.

I'm afraid that Kangchi will make any mistakes.

However, the Yinhe in the helicopter state is very simple to operate, and Kangchi is the designer of the Yinhe, so there is basically no non-standard operation.

This made Li Xiangnan breathe a sigh of relief.

"When you just take off, according to the normal steps, after you call the tower, you must wait for the tower to reply 'the tower received, please speak' before submitting a take-off application, this step is mainly to determine whether the other party can hear you, and other situations are also this step."

"I know, I was a little too anxious just now...... Be sure to pay attention in the future. ”

"Well, but it's all a minor issue, and it doesn't have much impact."

Especially for you......

Li Xiangnan silently added in his heart.

I didn't listen to the girl in the tower just now, how gentle her voice was.

If this had been replaced by them, if it weren't for the special circumstances, they would have been deducted points a long time ago......

Soon they flew into the training airspace, and the fixed-wing flight training that Kangchi had been looking forward to was finally coming.

Anyone who has played with drones knows that the difficulty and excitement of fixed-wing aircraft are much higher than that of quadcopter drones.

Quadcopter UAVs can only go up and down, front and back, left and right, and are relatively stable.

But fixed-wing is completely different, it can perform all kinds of difficult and exciting maneuvers, but at the same time, it is also more prone to loss of control.

Before the official flight, Kangchi had already completed the fixed-wing flight learning in the ground simulation cabin, so although there was a little nervousness, the overall excitement was still the mainstay.

"I've switched to fixed-wing mode."

"Yes, you try not to do anything about the mode conversion process."

"Okay!"

With the completion of the flight mode change, Yinhe also began to slowly speed up to 400 yards, and Kangchi immediately began to experience the thrill of a fixed-wing aircraft rushing forward frantically.

"Oh - that's so cool!"

It's a world away from the feeling of driving on a ground simulator.

"Slow down, slow down...... Mr. Kang, let's take it easy. ”

"It's okay, I've practiced hard in the simulation warehouse in the past two days!"

Moreover, he also used a learning machine to make up for a lot of flight theory and empirical knowledge, and what he lacked was actually real practice.

So dive, tumble, barrel roll!

In Li Xiangnan's stunned expression, Kang Chi actually made one complex flight action after another!

Mr. Kang...... Are you really flying a plane for the first time? ”

"Well, in fact, the feeling is not very difficult, except that the senses of the body are different from the simulated warehouse, and there seems to be no difference in operation."

Li Xiangnan: "......"

This is probably genius?

A genius who can learn everything!

It's really enviable......
