Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

"Good boy! Are you sure such a big plane is a drone?"

"In terms of length and width, it is even better than our current fighter jets."

Just as the world's attention was focused on the United States and Latin America, a new type of weapon was successfully born in Dragon Country.

Northern Machinery Group has made new progress in its drone research.

Developed the first large-scale reconnaissance and strike UAV.

This project is also the scientific research that Lin Kaifeng has spent the most effort on.

The large UAV, which is about 12 meters long and has a rotor diameter of 20 meters, will establish Longguo's status as a major UAV country.

Yesterday, Lin Kaifeng contacted General Liu via a confidential phone call.

They said they wanted to give the military a big gift and invited General Liu and other military generals to go to the Northern Aircraft Company at noon today.

Watch the completion ceremony of a high-tech project.

It is well known that every technological achievement produced by Lin Kaifeng will become extraordinary military equipment.

General Liu didn't say much and convened an emergency meeting overnight.

Today, I will lead all the participants on a military plane directly to Shanghai.

Soon after arriving in Shanghai, everyone went straight to the company's flight test base.

At this moment, the Feilong reconnaissance and strike large-scale UAV presented in front of everyone showed an indescribable beauty.

The aircraft has a slender body and a unique shape.

The length and width of the fuselage are very close to those of current fighter jets, and its take-off weight is only 5 tons.

External load capacity 500 kg.

"Comrade Lin Kaifeng, please stop keeping us in suspense and continue to introduce to everyone what role this reconnaissance and strike drone can play in military struggle."

"My goodness, looking at the appearance of this aircraft, I think the combat radius is at least one thousand kilometers."

"With a load capacity of 500 kg, it can't carry much weapons and ammunition..."

“Instead of focusing on this large drone, why not continue working on smaller drones?”

Military generals expressed their opinions.

Three years ago, Northern Machinery Group successfully completed the research on small military drones.

Three types of small drones have been listed as key procurement projects by the military.

Including transport drones, small attack drones, and reconnaissance drones.

At the same time, Lin Kaifeng designed another derivative product based on the small attack drone.

Disposable suicide drone.

Three types and four types of drones have greatly enhanced the combat capability of the army.

The happiest people were the artillery.

In the past, artillery operations required the assistance of artillery radar.

Through the artillery radar, the enemy's position can be discovered and the attack direction can be adjusted in real time.

It's different now.

The reconnaissance drone provided by the Northern Machinery Group perfectly replaces the artillery radar.

Broadened the artillery's attack field of view.

In addition, military attack drones and transport drones can effectively assist the Army Aviation Corps and cooperate with the Army in conducting tactical or strategic offensives of various scales.

He claims to be familiar with the UAV project of Northern Machinery Group.

When everyone saw the large reconnaissance and strike drone, they were still confused.

Analyze the advantages that the Feilong reconnaissance and strike drone can bring to the troops once it is put into war.

General Liu waved his hand to stop everyone's discussion and asked curiously, "Little boy, the comrades have told you not to keep us in suspense. Go on with the introduction."

Lin Kaifeng said slowly: "Old General, generals, the maximum flight altitude of the Feilong reconnaissance and strike drone is 5000 meters, the flight speed is 330 kilometers per hour, the maximum range is 2400 kilometers, and the combat radius is 1100 kilometers."

A few simple pieces of data once again made everyone cheer.

Lin Kaifeng introduced calmly: "Everyone, our Feilong reconnaissance and strike drone is just as its name suggests. It can not only conduct reconnaissance, but also cooperate with the troops to carry out a certain degree of ground attack."

"And these are only part of its capabilities. The biggest advantage of the Feilong reconnaissance and strike drone is the various electronic equipment on it."

"When it flies into the air, the reconnaissance and strike drone can provide communication relay for the troops while patrolling."

"The large unmanned aerial vehicle will serve as the troops' air signal base station, ensuring that when the troops are fighting the enemy, the command center can transmit orders to the troops in real time."

“Avoid any possible distractions.”

As soon as the words "communication relay" came out, the army generals were so happy that they wanted to jump up.

At present, Longguo’s satellite navigation project is proceeding in an orderly manner.

Only a few dozen satellites have been deployed in space.

It is not yet able to provide real-time information assurance to the military like the US GPS system.

Due to issues such as materials and equipment, Lin Kaifeng is temporarily unable to produce a complete version of the Feilong reconnaissance and strike drone.

That's right.

If we can't produce a complete version, it's okay to delete some technologies and make a streamlined version.

Different from the original model of Feilong reconnaissance and strike UAV.

At present, the reconnaissance and strike drone developed by the group has a climbing height of only half that of the original model.

The flying speed per hour is also dozens of kilometers less than the original model.

Other than that, the rest of the technology is almost identical.

The cruising time is close to twenty hours, and it can carry ten anti-tank missiles at a time.

It is equipped with aperture radar, optoelectronic reconnaissance system, mobile communication base station and ultra-short wave relay equipment.

The Feilong reconnaissance and strike drone has two versions: civilian and military.

The first project that Lin Kaifeng took out was naturally the military version.

Military reconnaissance and strike drones can provide communication relay for ground forces in a variety of harsh conditions.

Especially when the war enters a white-hot stage.

The importance of the Feilong integrated UAV will be fully reflected.

Once the war enters a white-hot stage, power supply, network supply, and conventional communication systems will be disrupted.

In terms of electronic warfare and electromagnetic interference, the United States has already achieved the ability to crush other countries and compete with the Soviet Union.

If the United States conducts strong electromagnetic interference on Longguo's front-line troops, the communications of various troops will inevitably fall into an unfavorable situation that is difficult to sustain.

At this time, the Feilong reconnaissance and strike drone at high altitude will replace the satellite and transmit the signal to the surrounding troops.

It took Lin Kaifeng nearly ten minutes to give a comprehensive account of the combat characteristics and technical performance of the Feilong reconnaissance and strike integrated drone.

The ten anti-tank missiles are not fixed.

When necessary, the reconnaissance and strike drone can also carry other types of missiles to perform decapitation, assault and other missions for ground forces.

And these are just the ground operations.

When deployed at sea, the Feilong reconnaissance and strike drone can also conduct uninterrupted reconnaissance of enemy fleets.

It uses the electronic graphite bombs it carries to attack the enemy flagship and paralyze the enemy ship's command center.

Follow up.

Lin Kaifeng will also add electronic jamming technology to the Feilong reconnaissance and strike UAV.

Take advantage of the low cost of drones to replace expensive electronic warfare aircraft.
