After explaining the work, Wu Hao's main purpose of coming to the Northwest Research Center this time is considered complete. But his work here is far from complete, and there are many things waiting for him. The Institute of Aviation Technology and UAV is the earliest scientific research team, laboratory and research institute established by Haoyu Technology. It can be said that Wu Hao and Zhang Jun both came out of this research team.

Therefore, this research institute is also one of the most important and core key research institutes in the company.

The research direction of their idea is in aviation technology, drones, and cluster array control technology.

A series of drone products of the previous company are all from this research institute, including the previous ‘凫徯’ large-scale intelligent attack drone.

The research institute itself is based in Anxi, but there are some projects that can't be tested or carried out in Anxi, so they are placed here, and the smart attack drone is developed.

And one of Wu Hao's purposes here is to come here to inspect the progress of related research projects.

This time, Wu Hao is very familiar with Zhou Yonghui, the head of the research institute who came to receive him.

This is the old man of the company, who also grew up with Wu Hao and the others. So the two of them were not polite when they met, and after a few words of greeting, they immediately plunged into the work.

Wu Hao asked directly how the smart attack drone was going on.

Zhou Yonghui nodded and said: "The progress is good. The Air Force likes it very much. It has been urged several times and let us speed up the progress. It is estimated that we can deliver several prototypes to the Air Force for trials as soon as summer.

In addition, the navy is also very interested in this drone and has already sent someone over to contact us. It's just that the Navy's mission purpose and use environment are very different from those of the Air Force, so a greater degree of adaptability improvement and optimization is required.

In addition, the navy also hopes that our smart attack drone can autonomously take off and land an aircraft carrier or even an amphibious assault ship. "

Wu Hao couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this: "They thought it was a helicopter, and they took off and landed an amphibious assault ship, what did they look like?

Even if it is an aircraft carrier, it is very rare to achieve fully autonomous takeoff and landing. This requires the perfect cooperation of aircraft carrier takeoff and landing facilities and aircraft.

Not only need to improve the UAV, but also need to improve the entire takeoff and landing command and control system of the aircraft carrier. "

I told them the same way, but this time the navy was very determined, and it was directly led by the general. Zhou Yonghui said with a wry smile.

Wu Hao heard the words, and then nodded helplessly: "Let the project team communicate with them, we can cooperate fully. For drones, it is good to say that the aircraft carrier is not something we can play."

You are right, I told them the same. Zhou Yonghui nodded and said.

That's good. Wu Hao sighed, and then asked him: "I heard that the second-generation Battlefield Sweeper Mini Unmanned Attack Vehicle project is progressing gratifyingly, and it has already entered the experimental testing stage."

Yes, it is like this. Zhou Yonghui immediately made a please gesture: "Please, we have conducted several tests in the test field of the base and achieved good results. We are all ready to know that you are here today."

Oh, is it? Then I will wait and see. Wu Hao smiled when he heard the words, and sure enough, the old man was caring.

The test field of the base is just on the edge of the base, not too far away. It covers a relatively large area. Located in the sand between three dunes, the area is about the size of seven or eight football fields.

It seems to be quite large, but in the depths next to this vast desert, this area is nothing at all.

In fact, they still have a larger shooting range, but they are still some distance away from the base.

In the afternoon, the weather at the test site was still relatively warm, and the wind became weaker. After drying it for a while, it was still slightly hot.

With sunglasses, Wu Hao and the others came to the test site. In front of the test site, there are several tables on a high platform made of concrete.

Zhou Yonghui took a missile-like object with a thickness of 40 mm and a length of 200 mm, which is about 4 cm thick and 20 cm long, and said to Wu Hao, "Mr. Wu, this is the second generation we developed. The battlefield sweeper mini unmanned attack aircraft."

so small? Wu Hao looked at what Zhou Yonghui was holding in his hands and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Zhou Yonghui smiled and said: "In fact, we can make it smaller, but considering the range, flying time, and the weight of the ammunition carried, we have made the current 40mm caliber and 200mm long similar to a missile. shape."

40mm thick, this caliber seems to be the same as the caliber of our commonly used grenade launchers. Wu Hao asked with a smile.

Hahahaha, I know I can't hide it from you. Makes it the same caliber as our grenade launcher. The reason why it is designed like this is mainly to make it easier for soldiers to launch through a gun-mounted grenade launcher or a special grenade launcher during daily use.

This design is good, taking into account the convenience and versatility of the troops. Wu Hao smiled and praised.

Zhou Yonghui smiled and nodded: "Yes, at the beginning of the research and development, we carefully visited the grassroots units using our first generation battlefield sweeper mini unmanned attack aircraft, and collected information about the first generation battlefield sweepers from the grassroots officers and soldiers. There are many good suggestions and opinions on the micro drone.

Among them, the most reflected issue is portability~lightnovelpub.net~ Officers and soldiers generally report that although this thing is very good and practical, it is very inconvenient to carry, and it is too easy to take up the volume. I hope we can carry it everywhere. .

After synthesizing so many opinions and our own research results, after repeated trials, we chose this kind of intelligent unmanned attack aircraft with launching method. "

It’s pretty good, but has its range, time spent in the air, and power reduced? Wu Hao brought up a question he was more concerned about.

Zhou Yonghui smiled and shook his head: "No, it hasn't been reduced, but has increased relatively, and we have also improved on this basis.

In this regard, we still have to rely on the help of the troops and military-industrial systems to solve many of our problems.

Of course, it also depends on the improvement of our own battery technology, which allows us to still get plenty of power even when using smaller batteries. "
