Chapter 333 Spring Warmth

When the winter jasmine flowers are in full bloom, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, February passes silently, and March arrives quietly, and the spring atmosphere in Shangjing is already very strong. Even though there is still some late spring chill, the young people who are eager to take off their bulky winter cotton clothes and put on bright spring clothes.

At this beautiful moment of spring, Wu Tong's overall research and development progress was declared complete. The perfect design and development plan for the PL-17 air-to-air missile with a range of 800 kilometers and a speed exceeding Mach 6, and the DF-17 hypersonic missile with a range of 3,000 kilometers and a speed exceeding Mach 10, were both released.

Hypersonic penetration, terminal maneuverable trajectory change, Qian's trajectory, precision strike range controlled within fifty meters, waverider warhead, from the initial concept, has been transformed into a real detailed design. It is truly a perfect and mature design that can be directly developed and prepared in her deduction space after long-term physical assembly simulation tests!

"Teacher, Brother Xu, Tao Ran, thank you for your hard work again. I need your cooperation to develop and prepare new materials!

Integrate into groups and prepare for experiments. Based on the need for heat resistance, I have developed a metal-based heat-resistant material with tungsten as the core. This is the material research and development plan. I need your cooperation to tackle the material problem! Tao Ran, you are familiar with this problem, so you will lead the team to conduct experimental verification! "After the plan was completed, Wu Tong immediately held a core team meeting and began to verify the material preparation.

This was the first time they worked on metal-based heat-resistant materials, and the entire research institute did not have much experience. While Wu Tong was sorting out the main points of the entire material preparation, he also simultaneously explained the core of metal-based heat-resistant materials to the two key players, allowing them to grasp it in their hearts, deeply implement the strategy, and stay true to their principles of cultivating their own team.

"Brother, you have followed up on the research and development of T5 blade materials before. This time, you will lead the team to do the single crystal tungsten preparation experiment!" As a family member, Wu Tong did not hesitate to be polite with Ruan Chengxu and directly handed over the task. They had previously worked on the research of single crystal technology, and Brother Xu could try to take the lead. For the time being, they would set up two experimental preparation teams, so that Wu Tong could take charge of both teams and adjust and solve any problems at any time.

"Brother Xu, does Tao Ran understand everything?" Wu Tong looked at the two people who were entrusted with the important task. Success or failure depends on their management and operation.

"Let's go down and prepare for the experiment!" Tao Ran and Ruan Chengxu took the order and started to execute it immediately without any stuttering.

Less than a month after the New Year, Mr. Wu has completed several material research and development designs. They are really proud of such achievements and such painstaking training! As the pillars of the current research institute, they have received such careful training, and they must use all their abilities to ensure that Wu Tong's training will not be in vain.

After the meeting, Wu Tong stayed to talk. She needed to ask the teacher some questions about connecting with the outside world. She was never afraid of doing research, but Wu Tong's weakness was arranging external contacts. She rose too fast and was good at independent research and development. She had not had much contact with the entire scientific research community, except for the predecessors who had gradually become familiar with her after connecting with the project. She needed to catch up.

"Teacher, since the beginning of the year, I have been busy with the missile upgrade project. It has been going well. With the breakthroughs in the air-to-air missile PL-17 and the supersonic long-range ballistic missile DF-17, it is better to find Mr. Hua to cooperate with the air-to-air missile project. Who is currently in charge of the DF series?"

"Ballistic missile? Intercontinental ballistic missile?" Cheng Huanan was surprised. Even though he always knew that Wu Tong had a wide range of interests, he was still surprised by Wu Tong's scope every time.

He knew that his apprentice had the ability to develop the PL series of air-to-air missiles, and it was only natural for her to further upgrade and develop the PL-17. With the arrival of two super fighters, Wu Tong must have added more strength to Kunpeng and Canglong. But he never expected that Wu Tong would also cross another major sector and make a breakthrough in ballistic missiles.

The difficulty of this is not something that Wu Tong can describe with just one sentence. Well, maybe for his young disciple who has surpassed the imagination of human beings, it is not really that difficult.

"Yes, for ballistic missiles, I combined some of the cruise missile's trajectory-changing capabilities and relied on Qian's ballistic diffraction to make the design, taking the best of both. It took me almost a month to break through all the barriers. Brother Xu and Tao Ran are respectively responsible for the W-1 single crystal tungsten material and the new metal-based material W-2, which are auxiliary materials developed to meet the needs of the new DF-17 hypersonic long-range ballistic missile!" Wu Tong breathed a sigh of relief.

Throughout mid-to-late February and the beginning of early March, she was almost non-stop preparing for research and development, and finally it was done!

Well, it was not easy. It was not easy for others. They finally made a new breakthrough after three to five years or ten years. It was not easy for Wu Tong. He made two major achievements in more than three weeks and less than a month. Sure enough, this era is the era of young people!

"The DF series is currently being developed by the Second Research Institute under the Aviation Group. The current persons in charge are General Manager Zhu Dingjun and General Manager Hua Yanxing. They are known as the two iron ladies in the missile industry and are also heroines who are as good as any man!" Cheng Huanan raised his eyebrows and sighed in his heart, then pondered and recalled, and gave Wu Tong an affirmative answer.

He has been active in the materials circle for many years and has been involved in many R&D projects in the aerospace sector. Although he knows all the information in this circle, he is quite familiar with it.

"They are all confidential units. You contact Chu's department and let Chu's department act as a transfer introduction!" Cheng Huanan instructed Wu Tong. The young apprentice's achievements were amazing. The fastest way to advance the project was to work from top to bottom. If they were to connect by themselves, not to mention that the other party would ignore them, it might not be the case, but at least the degree of cooperation would definitely not allow Wu Tong to take the lead.

Although he had not seen the design of DF-17, Cheng Huanan had witnessed many achievements and believed that Wu Tong's work was not ordinary, so he gave her the most sincere advice. In scientific research projects, only by taking full control can the project proceed according to her ideas.

"Okay, teacher, I will contact Mr. Chu for coordination later!" Wu Tong nodded. She thought so too. However, Wu Tong did not think it was that complicated. Instead, once there were results, Wu Tong was used to reporting to Mr. Chu and arranging the progress of the project.

These two projects, apparently two large projects, must be informed to Minister Chu so that he has room to prepare. We also hope that the research department will allocate funds!

The little money in her institute's account is enough for starting material research and development temporarily, but it is just a drop in the bucket to support the development of these two major projects.
