Chapter 394 Drone



"I'm convinced, big boss. Please accept my humble knee!" Jin Xin calmed down after a long moment, then clasped his hands together and congratulated him with a smile, "It's Chinese New Year today, and your manuscript has been approved. It's a double blessing. I'll tell my uncle and my dad to prepare well, and we'll celebrate for you today!"

Although this isn't Tongtong's first time being published in an international core journal, every time it happens, it's something worth celebrating! It's science and nature, and anyone doing research wouldn't want to be published in a top-tier journal!

Hehe, their Tongtong is really amazing. She submitted two articles at once, and both were approved and put into the waiting-for-publication status. She is amazing, worthy of being his sister! As a brother, he is very proud and honored!

"What's it about? Let me read it later!"

Since Tongtong had chosen to publish it, it proved to be non-confidential, and Jinxin was quite interested. He took a look ahead of time, which was a great way to broaden his horizons!

In fact, after they have studied the basics for a period of time since they entered school, they begin to add responsibilities to themselves and gradually get in touch with some simple journals, from the shallow to the deep.

As core journals for cutting-edge international theoretical research, Science and Nature were occasionally read to broaden his horizons. He was studying fighter aircraft design, and the coverage of these two core journals was not commensurate with his field of study and was not a primary focus for his studies.

"A simple discovery of superconducting materials!" For Wu Tong, these preliminary studies, which do not involve the description of phenomena in the actual development and preparation of materials, are indeed simple small discoveries. The final result is the real achievement she is pursuing.

If you want to take a look, then take a look. If you just want to understand it, it is also a good choice to broaden your horizons.

Wu Tong had the electronic manuscript of the original paper saved in hand, which he would print out and let the young man read in advance. It was just for understanding, and did not actually require any particularly professional level of superconducting research.

"Brother, have you decided on your main research direction? What are you planning to do in the future?" It's a rare opportunity to have a good chat with the brother. Wu Tong also wants to know more about his brother's movements and see where he can provide assistance to help him.

With just this young man, under limited conditions, Wu Tong is naturally willing to do his best to help him develop better.

Of course, cheating in exams or projects is absolutely impossible, but general project research guidance and discussion are normal things.

"I want to use drones as my current research topic!" Jin Xin sat on the single sofa next to Wu Tong, scratched his head, and answered Wu Tong's question seriously. He knew that Tongtong was concerned about him.

Moreover, as a top scholar with sufficient practical experience in the field of aerospace design and preparation, Tongtong can definitely give him guidance that is no less than that of a mentor.

Therefore, Jin Xin had no embarrassment and spoke directly to Wu Tong. He had Tong Tong, who was willing to give him guidance from a high-level perspective, but he didn't cherish it. He was beaten to death by those who longed for Tong Tong's guidance but had no way to get it!

Real fighter jet design is not something that Jin Xin, who has just completed his undergraduate studies, can touch upon casually. Even though he has followed up on the two complex super fighter jet projects, H-20 and J-35, he dare not say that he has truly mastered fighter jet design.

In these two projects, he can only be said to be a novice who is just making a living. With his scientific research level, he can only be said to have a superficial understanding. He is still very self-aware.

He doesn't have the capital to be so ambitious.

So, after much deliberation, Jin Xin found a decent starting point. If he could develop a complete design and polish it carefully, perhaps he could cross the master's level and enter the doctoral stage! He didn't expect to complete this project in a short period of time. He could only say that he had determined the direction for now, and the rest needed to be gradually filled in.

"Drone?" Wu Tong smiled. This was a good direction. The drones they were talking about were not those small toy aerial photography drones on the market, but truly energy-efficient drones that could be put into service.

Its full name should be unmanned aerial vehicle, abbreviated as "UAV", which is an unmanned aircraft controlled by radio remote control equipment and self-contained program control device, or operated completely or intermittently autonomously by an on-board computer.

Compared to manned aircraft, drones are often more suitable for missions that are too "dull, dirty or dangerous." Drones can be divided into military and civilian applications based on their application areas.

In the military, drones are divided into reconnaissance drones and target drones. In the civilian sector, drones + industrial applications are the real demand for drones.

The application of drones in aerial photography, agriculture, plant protection, micro selfies, express delivery, disaster relief, wildlife observation, infectious disease monitoring, surveying and mapping, news reporting, power inspection, disaster relief, film and television shooting, creating romance and other fields has greatly expanded the use of drones themselves. Developed countries are also actively expanding industry applications and developing drone technology.

Of course, as a military academy student, Jin Xin’s thinking must be in the fields of reconnaissance aircraft and target aircraft.

After more than one actual combat application in the last century, the importance of drones has gradually come into the spotlight.

Countries have fully recognized the role of drones in warfare and are competing to apply high-tech to their research and development: new airfoils and lightweight materials have greatly increased drone flight time; advanced signal processing and communication technologies have increased the speed of drone image transmission and digital transmission;

Advanced autopilots eliminate the need for drones to be guided by land-based TV screens, allowing them to fly to a hovering point, change altitude, and then proceed to their next target as programmed.

In this sector, China started developing in the millennium, relying on its technological advantages in aerodynamics and flight mechanics, and developed various types of drones named "Rainbow". These drones range in size from small to large, and in take-off weight from light to heavy. In terms of application, they range from various forms of reconnaissance and surveillance to attack, forming a relatively complete system.

When Wu Tong was researching fighter aircraft research and development data, she also came across information in this area. She remembered that China had made a good breakthrough a few years ago, before the Olympics, with the birth of Rainbow-3, which performed quite well and was also exported.

The Rainbow-3 UAV is an integrated reconnaissance and attack system, suitable for reconnaissance and precision strikes on fixed and mobile targets on the ground. It can carry optoelectronic reconnaissance payloads and two air-to-ground missiles with an attack accuracy of less than 1.5 meters. It can also be equipped with GPS precision-guided bombs for ground attacks.

The system consists of a ground control station, three drones, and their associated payloads and weapons. The Rainbow-3A drone has an 8-meter wingspan, a maximum takeoff weight of 650 kilograms, a maximum mission payload of 180 kilograms, a maximum flight time of 15 hours, a maximum speed of 256 km/h, and a maximum ceiling of 7,000 meters.
