Eagle Sauce: The 055 destroyer was launched into the sea just after the founding of the country?

"System, unlock the infrared guidance technology for me."

While others were still not arriving at his dormitory, Fang Yu immediately gave instructions to the system.

"Received, infrared guidance technology is being unlocked..."

"Infrared point source non-imaging technology has been unlocked, small solid engine technology has been unlocked, infrared sensor technology has been unlocked..."

As the system's cold voice continued to sound.

Pieces of knowledge flooded into Fang Yu's mind like a tide.

Almost in an instant, Fang Yu thoroughly understood and mastered the details and difficulties of infrared guidance technology.

The so-called infrared guidance is a technology that uses infrared detectors to capture and track the energy radiated by the target itself to achieve homing guidance.

Infrared guidance technology is a very important technical means in precision-guided weapons, which is divided into two categories: infrared imaging guidance technology and infrared point source (non-imaging) guidance technology.

Among various precision guidance systems, infrared guidance occupies an important position in the development of modern weapons assembly due to its advantages such as high guidance accuracy, strong anti-interference ability, good concealment and high cost-effectiveness.

It can be said that if one wants to develop high-tech modern weapons, infrared guidance technology is an obstacle that cannot be avoided.

Soon, more than a dozen technicians from the military factory, led by Su Niannian, came to Fang Yu's dormitory.

Most of them are top students who graduated from top universities in Longguo with a degree in optics or similar disciplines.

"Senior, I've found the person you wanted. Just tell me what you need us to do."

After Su Niannian finished speaking, the technicians on the side nodded hurriedly.

Unlike before, Fang Yu is now a celebrity in the entire military factory!

The new rocket launchers and new rifles designed under his leadership were both extremely successful.

Even a blind person can see that Fang Yu has a bright future.

Now that Fang Yu has found me, it seems that he is going to make new weapons.

If Fang Yu were to develop a top-notch new weapon this time, it would be a huge improvement to his qualifications and would also be a huge boost to his future development.

Therefore, this group of people were eager to come and help Fang Yu.

"Everyone, take a seat."

Fang Yu didn't say anything polite, he just waved his hand and asked the group to sit down and talk.

Then, he said it directly.

"I didn't ask you all to come here for anything else."

"In order to help our fighters against the Eagle and the Bang shoot down the American planes, I plan to develop a new weapon."

"A weapon that can automatically track and attack aircraft using infrared guidance!"

"What? Infrared guided weapons?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone who had been excited just now was stunned.

Did I hear correctly? What Fang Yu was planning to do was actually an infrared-guided weapon?!

You know, in the 1950s, infrared guidance technology was definitely Zenith's black technology!

Even if there is research, it is conducted by top laboratories in superpowers such as the United States or Russia.

A small military factory like ours with nothing is developing infrared guidance?

Almost funny!

"Senior, with the current level of our military factories, isn't it... a bit early to develop infrared-guided weapons?"

Su Niannian pondered for a long time, finally came up with a relatively neutral word, and said it tentatively.

"Researching this kind of cutting-edge weapon is quite difficult..."

"Yes, Senior Fang, I graduated with a degree in optics. With our domestic level, we can't even polish the high-precision lenses required for infrared guidance."

"Not to mention that infrared guided weapons are an extremely complex system engineering project. Our Dragon Country's industrial level is too weak to support such a complex system..."

At this time, another technician who was a student and had returned from studying in Hans also said.

"With our current industrial level, it is naturally difficult to produce high-precision, long-range infrared-guided weapons."

"But isn't it easier to just make a basic infrared-guided weapon?"

Hearing everyone's doubts, Fang Yu spoke slowly.

"Rudimentary...infrared-guided weapons?"

When everyone heard this, they were all very confused.

Basic infrared guided weapons? How basic is it?

"You see, the working principle of infrared-guided weapons is actually very simple."

At this time, Fang Yu began to talk.

"Infrared-guided weapons can hit their targets because they are equipped with infrared sensors."

"When a guided weapon is launched, the sensor detects infrared radiation emitted by the target, such as the heat from an enemy aircraft."

"Guided weapons determine the target's position and heading by comparing and tracking its infrared radiation, then autonomously guide themselves toward the target to hit the enemy."

"right?"

"Yes, that's right."

Hearing this, everyone thought about it for a moment and then nodded.

Although what Fang Yu said was very simple, the logic was correct.

"So, comrades, have you noticed that there are two difficulties in manufacturing infrared-guided weapons?"

"One is to create an infrared sensor that can detect outer infrared radiation, and the other is to make the sensor able to track heat sources smoothly."

Fang Yu explained slowly.

"As for tracking the heat source, the Americans have already solved it for us."

"It would be fine if they still used the old propeller fighters."

"But, the F86 Sabre fighter jets they are now equipped with use a new turbofan engine!"

"Once activated, it will release intense heat. In the extremely cold weather of North Korea, it will be the perfect target for infrared-guided weapons!"

"As for making infrared sensors..."

"I remember my chemistry teacher taught me that lead sulfide is a very interesting substance. Once it is exposed to infrared light, it releases electrons..."

Upon hearing this, the group of people fell into a brief silence, and then showed expressions of ecstasy!

Fang Yu’s words were like enlightenment, waking them up!

Yes! Who said that infrared guided weapons must be high-tech?

As long as there are raw materials to make infrared sensors and appropriate places to use them, it is not impossible to produce a primary infrared-guided weapon in a short period of time!

And coincidentally, Fang Yu has already solved the most difficult part.

The characteristic of lead sulfide is that it is super sensitive to light and heat, and it is undoubtedly the most appropriate material for making infrared sensors!

The most difficult problem of raw materials for manufacturing infrared sensors has been solved by Fang Yu with just one word!

In an instant, everyone looked at Fang Yu with a hint of awe!

People like Fang Yu who can turn the impossible into possible are simply geniuses among geniuses!

They were simply full of admiration for Fang Yu!

"Holy crap! Infrared guided weapons can do this! I'm really surprised today!"

"Senior Fang, you're amazing! If it weren't for you, I would never have thought that lead sulfide could be used to make infrared sensors!"

"Senior Fang, you are simply my god..."
