Chapter 1,787 The most fanciful drone design to date
The slowness here is just slower than the speed of the rapid approach before, but in Luo Kai's view, this speed is not satisfactory, it can even be said to be fast.
You must know that in the air, not to mention this kind of precise docking, even aerial refueling is also a very difficult project and requires special training to be competent.
This kind of connection is completely between drones. This technology may be more difficult. You must know that in the air at hundreds of kilometers per hour, it is always affected by the surrounding environment, wind speed, air pressure, and humidity.
Affected by factors such as this, if you want to achieve such high-precision and fast docking, it is self-evident that such technology is required.
After the video played, the 3D model of the light blue "Peregrine Falcon" stealth drone suspended and rotating in mid-air reappeared.
Luo Kai couldn't help but sigh, and then shook his head with a wry smile: "It's unbelievable, unimaginable, this idea or this design is simply unconventional, and can even be called deviant.
But I have to admit that this is definitely the most amazing drone design I have seen so far.
Regardless of its overall performance, just talking about this idea and this design, I think it is ahead of all UAVs in service and under development in the world. It is not an exaggeration to call it superior.
"
Liked it instantly. Wu Hao smiled and waved his hand and said: "Actually, this drone is just an internal verification project of our company.
To be honest, its technical difficulty is too high, and so far we are not sure we can develop it.
This is one of the reasons why we develop it secretly.
I just didn’t expect that he would still be found out, and he was still an enemy. This made me quite upset and uncomfortable.”
Haha, Luo Kaichang laughed twice, then looked at him and comforted with a smile: "This also proves your strong strength from the side. There are so many domestic technology companies, why do these people only stare at you, and...
It's so tight, it means they are paying close attention to you."
Speaking of this, Luo Kai looked at Wu Hao and said with a smile: "Actually, I don't think there is any need to hide this matter from us. You can tell us openly, and you can get the support of the military.
Especially the Air Force, I believe they will be very interested in this brand-new concept of the "Peregrine" stealth drone."
Wu Hao nodded: "I know, but we still don't want to make too much noise before we are sure.
But now it seems that it is unnecessary. In this case, it is better to show off directly. It can just win a wave of support. To be honest, the investment in research and development of this project is still relatively large. If we just rely on us, it will still be a little difficult."
Hearing Wu Hao complaining about poverty, Luo Kai simply ignored it. He didn't believe that a technology giant with an annual revenue of one trillion yuan and a profit scale of hundreds of billions, a leading domestic and even international technology giant, would have no money.
Although those big companies may not necessarily be rich, they are definitely not companies like Haoyu Technology. Companies with strong technical capabilities have made a lot of money relying on the digital products they have launched in the past few years.
Not to mention other aspects, such as the upstream technology industry supply chain, the new Internet, two major virtual digital platforms, games and entertainment and other projects, the combined income of these is unknown.
So Luo Kai simply ignored Wu Hao's words, and instead looked at the 3D model of the light blue transparent "Peregrine Falcon" stealth drone that was still floating and rotating in mid-air.
"I have a few questions. First of all, according to what you said, each drone is an independent combat unit, so does each drone carry ammunition?"
"Yes, there is a built-in magazine in the belly of the aircraft. Each small UAV can carry six to eight enemy precision-guided bombs or enemy attack missiles. In addition, it can also carry air-to-air missiles based on different missions.
It is used to attack enemy air fighters. The bomb load of each small attack drone can reach about 1.2 to 1.4 tons. The combination of these four small drones becomes the total payload of the "Peregrine" stealth drone.
The bomb capacity can reach five to six tons, which is very impressive."
At this point in his answer, Wu Hao paused for a moment, then softened his tone and said: "Of course, the size of each small drone is limited, so the four small drones that make up the "Peregrine" stealth drone are
The space of the built-in magazine above is not large, so the ammunition that can be accommodated is limited in size. They are all medium and light attack ammunition and cannot carry heavy ammunition.
Of course, if you have to carry it, you can only use it externally. Of course, if it is externally installed, it is limited by the spliced fuselage, the center of gravity and the aerodynamic shape structure, and you can only use very few heavy ammunition externally.
It is used in emergency and special operations fields, and is not recommended for conventional operations."
For this answer, Luo Kai nodded with great satisfaction. No weapon and equipment is perfect. They have many advantages and naturally have their own shortcomings. As for what Wu Hao said about not being able to carry large and heavy ammunition
This matter is not actually a shortcoming. Because basically all drones cannot carry such heavy ammunition, they are all light or medium ammunition. Even the small ones specially developed for drones
Dimensional attack ammunition.
"What about the range?" Luo Kai asked him this question, and then expressed his worries or problems. Due to the small size of the single drone that constitutes the "Peregrine Falcon" stealth drone,
Coupled with the built-in magazine, the fuel that drones can carry is very limited, which also results in their limited range.
"If the docking combination is combined, then only the drone at the tail is driving the flight, and the range is also limited. As a result, its combat range is very limited unless aerial refueling is performed.
But aerial refueling by drones is too difficult."
You are right to worry. Wu Hao first admitted this, and then explained with a confident smile.
We are naturally aware of this problem, but this problem is actually easy to solve. That is why the fuel in the other drones cannot be directly supplied to the tail drone during the overshoot of the docking combination.
Up there.
After saying that, Wu Hao glanced at Luo Kai and continued: "The fuel of one drone is limited, so the fuel of four drones added together is very considerable. After docking and combining, the four drones can
The fuel for man-machine only needs to supply the engine of one drone, or part of the engines of three drones. In this case, the fuel consumed will be reduced and the range will naturally be greatly increased.
This also has an advantage, that is, we can use this docking and combination method to allow the "Peregrine" stealth drone to fly to the relevant predetermined airspace, and then separate and perform their respective tasks. This can greatly extend the life of these small unmanned aerial vehicles.
