Minke's black technology

Chapter 271
Not long after the aerospace research and development personnel entered the research and development state, the Air Force Rabbit also sent people.

This time they came for the UAV aircraft carrier. The air force boss is quite courageous. Since the bald eagle assassinated a diplomat on the territory of other countries with UAVs a few years ago, people of insight have already It can be seen that the era of drones is coming.

Even though there are still many technical problems to be solved for drones, the cost advantage completely overwhelms manned fighter jets. Moreover, if a drone is shot down, it is only a loss of an aircraft. If a manned fighter jet is shot down, Then it is very likely that even the pilot will be lost.

Nowadays, the training cost of a pilot is at least tens of millions. If the time cost is counted, then in the future, drones will definitely be far more cost-effective than manned fighter jets.

The only thing that worries the Air Force boss is, "Is it safe to hand over drones to intelligent AI to control?"

After all, there are plots of intelligent AI rebelling against human beings in many science fiction movies, especially in the famous "Terminator" series of movies, Skynet kills from the future to the present, trying to influence the future by changing the present, and finally realizes the extinction of human beings by artificial intelligence AI Target.

Therefore, drones in other countries are controlled by pilots on the ground, allowing them to remotely control the attack target, so as not to accidentally injure civilians and cause humanitarian disasters.

However, Li Maoye's UAV carrier is different. Although it is still handed over to the ground personnel to control the attack target, the intelligent AI of the UAV and the carrier is too advanced. Cooperate to kill the enemy.

As a result, the Air Force Rabbit has doubts, for fear that these drones will suddenly have autonomous consciousness like Transformers. After all, what Li Maoye provides is black technology, and it is difficult for ordinary people to understand the technological knowledge inside, so the bosses have been hesitant about this.

In addition, they are also afraid that the drone will be hijacked by hackers, and then attack their own people in turn.

The bald eagle once encountered a similar thing in a big country in the Middle East. The drone they were proud of disappeared in that country, and then it was reported that the drone was completely controlled by people.

At first, the bald eagle couldn't believe it, thinking that the country's technology was so backward that it was impossible to capture its own drone, so it sent a drone to patrol again, but it still encountered the same thing.

Afterwards, the bald eagle found out that his drone had been hacked into the system and controlled by hackers, and then he was obediently caught like a lamb.

It can be seen that before the use of quantum communication technology, the control system of any drone may be invaded. It is only a matter of time before it can be cracked, and it has little to do with who made it.

Logically speaking, Meow Star Group has always had strong protection measures in terms of software. As long as the Titan Star technology code provided by Li Maoye is used for programming, no one else on earth can invade and crack it.

Unless there is a problem with the Meow Lab itself, the possibility of this is almost zero, and there is no need to consider that the drone will be hijacked by hackers.

But the Air Force Rabbit is still worried. After all, the Air Force’s own technical experts cannot understand the black technology smart codes. If Li Maoye or someone else secretly bury the back door, wouldn’t it be that the drone carrier is completely under the control of others!

"This possibility must be eliminated!"

"If we can't guarantee that we have 100% mastery of this weapon, then don't make it!"

"The role of a weapon is not how powerful it is, but whose control it is in!"

These concerns of the Air Force Rabbit are indeed justified, but they can’t find a solution, so they put off until now to propose to reconsider the drone carrier plan, and want to send people into the laboratory to develop and manufacture prototypes like Yuhangtu.

"Since we are not sure whether there is a problem, let's build one and take a look!" Air Force Rabbit said.

Li Maoye is not willing to let more people in. The scale of the Meow Star Laboratory has been carefully controlled. Anyone who joins the research and development work must wear the "Tianxin Lotus Ring" to connect to the spiritual local area network. effect.

It's not that he can't afford to connect with a few more people, but that he doesn't want to work too hard. You must know that even if you give people a halo, it will take energy.

However, Air Force Rabbit's reason is very good, "We came here before Space Rabbit, why are they able to enter the laboratory, but they don't allow us to come in!"

"Okay! Okay! Let's not make an example!" Li Maoye felt his brain ache, and he must have exhausted too much energy.

After the Air Force Rabbit got permission, they immediately arranged for a group of people to come in. Among them were several drone experts who were in charge of research and development. In order to show impartiality, Li Maoye asked them to limit the number of research and development personnel. People are about as good as it gets.

After these R&D personnel came in, they also occupied a factory building. Anyway, the site of Meow Star Laboratory is large enough, after all, it has merged several industrial parks together.

"If you want to make a drone carrier, you have to get the electric propulsion engine out first!" Li Maoye first asked Assistant Xie to shave the man's head and ring according to the rules, and then called him over to arrange the work himself.

Because he heard that Zhao Baibing had left a bad impression on people, and almost made the Yuhangtu people mistake this place for a cult organization. Although the misunderstanding was resolved later, the impact of this was too bad.

Now these Space Rabbit R&D personnel don't need to accept Zhao Baibing's newcomer training, and they all quietly listen to the arrangement of the boss of the laboratory. After all, Li Maoye's reputation is too great that no one dares to interrupt easily.

"The Space Rabbit is also developing electric propulsion engines. Although they are used in space and are a bit different from drone engines, the scientific principles are the same, so I plan to arrange for you to cooperate in research and development. In the end Then manufacture your own electric propulsion engine according to your own needs."

Li Maoye's arrangement was very reasonable, and everyone had no opinion, so the two groups of people were quickly merged together for research and development.

However, before letting the Air Force Rabbit experts go down, someone stood up and asked a question: "Academician Li, I want to ask why the sub-machines of the drone carrier are designed to be two meters in size, can't we make larger drones?" Is it? Although the number of unmanned drones will be reduced, the power of weapons and the number of ammunition can be increased a lot.”

Li Maoye glanced at the other party, and replied calmly: "The reason is very simple, that is, the energy problem! The bigger the drone, the higher the power of the electric propulsion engine required, and the more energy it consumes! If it is designed as a large drone For man-machines, firstly, the flight speed will drop sharply, and secondly, the flight time will be much reduced, which is also related to energy supply.”

When the other party wanted to continue asking questions, Li Maoye had already waved him off, "You can read the information first and then talk about the specific situation. If you can solve the miniaturization of nuclear reactors and create Iron Man's Ark Energy, maybe you can do what you want." Effect."

Of course, there is nuclear reactor miniaturization technology in reality, but it is still not up to the standard. The weight of the entire reactor is too large, and the power generation is not as large as imagined, so it is not suitable for drones, otherwise Li Maoye would have used it long ago. .

In order to manufacture the prototype of the aircraft carrier in the Meow Star Laboratory, it is necessary to have corresponding construction facilities and production equipment.

At present, the laboratory lacks the conditions to build large aircraft, so when the Air Force Rabbit came in, a large number of engineers also came. The engineer who led these engineers was Chief Engineer Chen, the deputy chief engineer of Chengfei.

This Chief Engineer Chen is much older than Li Maoye. His hair at the temples has turned gray, and his body looks a little thin and thin, but his eyes are quite energetic, as if he is equipped with an X-transmission machine, and he is extremely strict and serious in his work.

As soon as Mr. Chen met, he told Li Maoye that he had doubts about the shape design of the aircraft carrier. He had to pass the engineering model blow test before starting to make the prototype.

Li Maoye has nothing to do with this. It is quite normal for someone to raise reasonable objections. What is abnormal is that he has a problem in his heart but keeps silent, and has to wait until something happens before yelling loudly.

The prototype of the UAV carrier is modified from the Flying Cat series. In order to meet the design requirements, a lot of things have been changed, so theoretically the carrier is a new model. According to the aircraft manufacturing process, it must go through the air blowing experiment. After seeing whether the aerodynamic effect meets the design requirements, the real prototype can be started.

Maybe it's because what Li Maoye has produced in the past few years is so amazing that everyone subconsciously thinks that there must be no problem with the design of the drone carrier, at least there will be no problem with the flight performance data, so no one has raised objections until now.

Mr. Chen's responsible attitude is commendable. Without a word, Li Maoye immediately arranged manpower to prepare for the relevant work. At least he had to make a factory model, and then he could use it for the blowing experiment.

In fact, Chengfei’s people had already prepared it. After receiving the design information provided by Li Maoye, they immediately began to make wooden models, not only the aircraft carrier model, but also the drone model.

The equipment and materials here in the Meow Star Laboratory are quite complete. As long as there are people, the aircraft model can be produced in minutes. After all, they have a powerful assistant robot to help, and many tasks that need to be made by hand can be thrown to They go.

Now there are more and more little assistants in the laboratory, not only is everyone equipped with a robot follower, but there are also more little assistants waiting for orders in the warehouse.

If it weren't for the help of the little assistant robot, Qin Hua and others would have been exhausted by the trivial things in the research and development work, so how could they have so much energy to engage in multiple project research and development.
