Chapter 2957: Autonomous flight

Now, Song Lao is already very old. Of course, he won’t accept the old. Song Lao is still fighting on the front line to overcome the technical difficulties of the fifth-generation aircraft. As for Yang Gong, he is advancing the existing project. The machine naturally fell into his hands.
Now Gong Yang is in his prime of life, and he is full of vitality. He has devoted himself to the development of aviation technology. Yang Gong is also an ambassador.
At this time, Gong Yang and the others were right next to the plane, making the final preparations before takeoff.
This plane is so big that it has subverted many people's imaginations.
Generally speaking, drones are small and exquisite. After all, they are just a battlefield reconnaissance, but this one is different. This one is more than ten meters in length. It is completely big and has a larger wingspan. Jamal The general looked at the weird things here with a surprised look. He knew that this should be a secret project of the Han country. However, the Han country has always been open to the holy country. What the holy country wants to buy, Han What can be provided.
Now, a few people strode towards the drone, looking at the weirdly shaped plane with surprised eyes.
"President Qin." Seeing Qin Guan, Yang Gong beckoned skillfully. This is a technical expert. At this time, he was fully focused on technology. Later, he discovered that there was someone next to Qin Guan. I turned around and took a few serious glances.
"General Jamal?" Yang Gong recognized it. After all, the Thunder and Lightning fighters of the Holy Nation are the F-14 fighters produced by the 6611. Therefore, their relationship with the Holy Nation is very good. They just didn't pay attention. After observing this carefully, I immediately noticed it.
"Yang Gong, what is the origin of your big plane?" Jamal was very interested.
"This is a large battlefield surveillance aircraft we specially built." Yang Gong began to introduce it: "Its most important device is the radar in the belly, and the infrared and TV sensors over there."
When conducting ground reconnaissance, synthetic aperture radar is always the most important way. It can scan all kinds of landforms on the ground, and it can also detect all targets on the ground without being affected by bad weather.
Below the belly, the radar antenna occupies half of the position, and behind it is the infrared and optical sensor device.
Although these devices are inherited and developed from reconnaissance aircraft, they have been specially improved and are fully suitable for the use of unmanned aerial vehicles.
The bulge of the nose is also the result of a large number of electronic devices installed inside. Of course, the design drawing that was originally given by President Qin in this way has proved to be quite good.
The large wings on both sides can store enough fuel. This kind of aircraft has a range of up to 20,000 kilometers. It is not wrong to say that it is a Global Hawk.
Qin Guan also circled the plane with great interest. When he came to the back of the fuselage, he looked at the tail engine and roughly guessed the origin of the engine.
There are only a few domestically-made engines, and for a reconnaissance aircraft, there is no need for an afterburner, but it is very fuel-efficient. Therefore, the engine of this aircraft should be the same as the one on the F-14. Like the push, it is an imitation F404 engine with a very low fuel consumption rate. It is logical to use it on this, and it is enough to remove the afterburner.
At this moment, there is a data interface under the belly of the plane. A technician is holding a special military reinforced notebook to fill the reconnaissance aircraft with data. Qin Guan can’t understand the beating characters on the screen. But I can roughly guess what.
As a drone, the most important thing is the ability to fly autonomously. In the words of later generations, that is intelligence!
For an aircraft, the most difficult thing is to take off and land, and this kind of aircraft must have various attitude adjustment procedures, and must have complete takeoff and landing procedures. Row.
Of course, for it, autonomous take-off and landing is just a small test. After arriving on the battlefield, it has to hover over the battlefield for a long time to monitor back and forth, what route it takes, how to monitor it, and how to monitor it. Of course it can be controlled, and it has its own special procedures to deal with it.
It must have its own judgment ability. This judgment ability is a difficulty in the development, that is, the real intelligence. It needs to discover various targets, determine which target has the highest threat level, and even wait for it to be added later. If the missile is hung up, it can also launch an attack as soon as the threat is detected.
"This drone currently uses four Hanxin-4 processors." Sure enough, he seemed to know what Qin Guan was thinking, and Yang Gong introduced there: "We specialize in anti-electromagnetic pulse and anti-interference. As for special military chips, we find that the programs we write are getting larger and larger, and military chips can’t handle them.

In fact, the best is the specially developed artificial intelligence chip, but in this era, it is still a delusion. It is impossible. Therefore, it can only be used with civilian chips. After all, the performance of civilian chips far exceeds military chips. Generation, civilian use, can now reach 2G computing power.
If you want this drone to fly autonomously, even if it is a civilian chip, it will cost four yuan. It is conceivable how huge the data needs to be processed.
"Two of the chips are used to command the aircraft's autonomous navigation, and the other two are used to compress data." Yang Gong continued.
After such an introduction, Qin Guan understood.
Data compression is naturally a big problem.
The previous reconnaissance planes all flew over to shoot film, and then studied after the shooting came back. Of course, this could not detect the problems on the battlefield in time. With the advancement of technology, synchronous transmission has become necessary.
However, these data are quite large. You must know that just transmitting video is enough to stretch the severely insufficient communication bandwidth. Therefore, if you want to be able to transmit in time, you must even deploy several drones in a piece of airspace. Then, in the drone, it is necessary to compress the data in advance.
After the image is losslessly compressed, it is no problem to reduce the amount of data to one-tenth of the original, which greatly reduces the requirements for communication bandwidth. Of course, a new problem that follows is to have a sufficiently high The data processing capability is completely real and can't be falsified at all, so the most advanced processor on the market can only be used.
In fact, this is also a very normal operation. The various equipment in the Eagle Nation Army actually uses a large number of civilian processors. After all, the performance of the military is indeed insufficient.
