With the project officially approved and with the state backing him up so he no longer had to worry about R&D funding, Xu Yuan began to take drastic actions.
First, a discussion meeting was organized to discuss the design of aerospace fighters and aerospace carriers.
In order to determine the plan as soon as possible.
Then let the project enter the manufacturing stage.
As for the members attending the meeting, the scene can only be described as grand.
Basically, looking around the country, it is difficult to have the opportunity to see it.
In addition to the two giants, Aviation Industry Corporation of China and China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, which are carrying out in-depth cooperation for the first time.
Xijing Aero Engine Group and Electronic Technology Group will both participate in providing corresponding technical support.
In addition, the aerospace mothership will need nuclear fusion to increase its energy. At that time, the Plasma Physics Institute of Luyang Science Island will also participate in building a nuclear fusion reactor for the mothership.
It is no exaggeration to say that this project has already gathered the most advanced scientific and technological forces in the country.
Mid-December.
Conference hall of Yenching Academy of Sciences.
As the discussion meeting officially began, Xu Yuan looked around and found many familiar figures.
In addition to the President of the Academy of Sciences Bai Xinzhou, there were also Lu Dongming from the aviation field and Guo Dongxiao, chairman of the board of directors of Aerospace. Academicians such as He Luping, Gao Yuhe and Huang Yunliang were also present. Even Liang Zhanjun from the Jincheng Aircraft Design Institute came over specially.
Zhang Guangyi, who was in charge of radar research, and engine engineer Chang Hanping were also sitting there.
After seeing Xu Yuan, he raised his hand to signal.
Xu Yuan smiled back at this.
According to a rough estimate, there were already several well-known academicians sitting in the conference room.
This shows how much attention everyone pays to this project.
However, this situation is normal. After all, this is about developing fighter jets that can truly achieve cooling strikes, which basically determines the future global situation.
As an excellent scientific researcher, I am naturally proud to participate in such a project.
As long as you successfully join and make a contribution, your name will definitely appear in the textbooks.
Perhaps because he was facing so many experts in various fields at once, Xu Yuan could feel the tense atmosphere in the conference room, and other people present also looked a little depressed.
So in this situation, Xu Yuan did not choose to get down to business right away.
Instead, he greeted everyone with a smile, just like meeting old friends.
"Thank you very much for your support of my work and for taking the trouble to come all the way from other cities."
"Then I'll leave it to you all."
Almost as soon as Xu Yuan finished speaking, Academician Gao Yuhe from the Fengtian Aircraft Design Institute could not help but immediately take over the conversation and respond.
"The higher-ups attach so much importance to this project this time and require all of us to fully cooperate with you, so you can just make arrangements for whatever happens next. We all look forward to seeing our aerospace fighter plane soon."
As a graduate of an aircraft design institute, he naturally looks forward to more advanced aerospace fighters.
I can’t wait to see the scene where domestically-made aerospace fighters dominate the world.
At the same time, Huang Yunliang and Liang Zhanjun, who were sitting next to him, did not respond, but their eyes were fixed on Xu Yuan.
I look forward to Xu Yuan announcing more information about the aerospace fighter later.
Bai Xinzhou felt the change in the atmosphere and no longer wanted to waste time by remaining silent.
The next second he took the initiative to say something to Xu Yuan.
"Since everyone can't wait, Xu Yuan, please tell us your specific arrangements for this project."
"I know you never fight a battle without preparation."
"To be able to convince the higher-ups to agree so quickly, they must have had it all planned out long ago."
Based on his understanding of Xu Yuan, Bai Xinzhou believed that when Xu Yuan was received by the leadership, he could make the country determined to develop aerospace fighters so as to completely master absolute military power. It was definitely not as simple as just talking.
It must be almost ready.
After all, if there weren't enough cards in the hole, the higher-ups would never agree so readily.
There is no doubt that Bai Xinzhou's words once again aroused the emotions of everyone present.
They all looked at Xu Yuan with burning eyes, waiting for his answer.
Xu Yuan listened to everything Bai Xinzhou said, and was not surprised to see that the other party came straight to the point.
Yes.
He convened and hosted this seminar today with the intention of formally launching the project and starting action.
Only by maintaining high efficiency can the country's latest generation of aerospace fighters be launched as soon as possible.
The main reason is that such a big move suddenly made in the country will inevitably attract the attention of various overseas forces.
The longer a project lasts, the more likely it is to leak early.
So at this point, he naturally wouldn't keep it a secret any longer.
After coughing a few times, he directly released his ultimate move.
"In fact, I have already completed the preliminary design drawings for the domestically-made aerospace fighter and aerospace carrier. I specially invited everyone here this time to discuss and demonstrate this design plan."
“Everyone brainstorms together to find out the shortcomings and optimize and improve them.”
As Xu Yuan finished his words, everyone else at the scene showed a look of shock.
Originally, everyone thought that Xu Yuan came up with the idea of developing domestic aerospace fighters and aerospace carriers after he mastered controlled nuclear fusion.
in this way.
In this case, the design plan must be completed first.
The whole process often takes a long time.
This is to ensure the rationality of each detail of the plan and whether the existing technology can support or break through it.
Because only when the design plan is perfect enough can we avoid detours when carrying out specific research and development.
Otherwise, the time saved before will be taken back later.
However, no one expected that Xu Yuan had already completed the design of the aerospace fighter and aerospace mothership in advance. It was obvious that he had related ideas in his mind for a long time, and while working on other projects, he still took time to study the drawings of the fighter and mothership.
But you should know that in the past two or three years, Xu Yuan has been busy with room-temperature superconducting materials and controlled nuclear fusion.
Faced with such difficulties and complexities, this research project can be regarded as the ultimate problem of human civilization.
He even had enough energy to come up with a design drawing of an aerospace fighter and an aerospace mothership.
It is really shocking.
Whether it was room-temperature superconducting materials or controlled nuclear fusion, Xu Yuan completed both projects in a very short time. If the outside world knew about it, it would certainly call it a great miracle in the scientific community.
However, who would have thought that in addition to developing room-temperature superconducting materials and solving the problem of controlled nuclear fusion.
Xu Yuan also studied the issues of aerospace fighters and aerospace carriers.
As for the authenticity of this matter, naturally no one would have any doubts.
Although aerospace fighters and aerospace carriers are a complete dimensionality reduction attack for the current armed forces, and even designing their blueprints is a very difficult task, Xu Yuan was able to successfully solve the problem of controlled nuclear fusion, let alone a design plan.
that's it.
As everyone became more and more excited, they soon saw a drawing of a fighter jet with a special shape appear on the information screen inside the car.
At the same time, Xu Yuan also explained:
"This is what I want to talk about today, the Xuanniao unmanned air-space fighter."
That's right.
Following the Wing Loong UAV and stealth unmanned bomber, Xu Yuan once again took out the Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter.
Today, domestic research on quantum communications can already cooperate with drones to carry out large-scale and long-distance operations, basically completely solving the signal interference and interception problems that exist in traditional drones.
Considering the super-high flight speed and space combat of aerospace fighters, choosing a drone model is the most cost-effective.
Especially when combined with an aerospace carrier, it will be able to exert greater advantages and power.
At this time, no one was in the mood to listen to what Xu Yuan said. All their attention was on the Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter.
I was shocked by the various configuration values mentioned in the design drawings. "The length is 24 meters, the wingspan is 14 meters, and the maximum flight speed exceeds Mach 5!"
"It is equipped with two variable cycle engines and a set of force field drive devices. We have not yet mastered these technologies."
"The weapon is a pulse particle accelerator cannon, and it can launch medium- and long-range missiles. This directly solves the problem of insufficient firepower."
"If this unmanned air-to-space fighter is developed, it will definitely be unrivaled in the world."
Gao Yuhe, Huang Yunliang, Liang Zhanjun and others no longer cared about their image. They kept expressing their amazement in their words, and their eyes were completely bright.
As for other people, although they are not from the aviation system, they also understand how advanced and powerful these configurations are.
After all, some technologies have not even been mastered yet.
It is probably not an easy task to truly develop this unmanned air and space fighter.
Xu Yuan was watching everyone's reactions at this time, and was not surprised by anyone's expression.
The Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter adopts a complex forward-swept wing structure and relies on the combination of a variable cycle engine and a force field drive device to achieve powerful power, allowing the fighter to achieve high-speed flight.
However, the technology of the inductive force field drive device has not yet been mastered, which will also be a difficulty in manufacturing the Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter.
But his point of view remains the same as before, if you are going to do it, you must get the best.
So even if we face technical difficulties, we must go ahead.
At worst, just take the time to solve the problem.
Otherwise, if the configuration is lowered, even if this unmanned air and space fighter is successfully developed, the actual performance will be far below expectations, and it will not achieve a true dimensionality reduction attack.
Regarding this situation, Xu Yuan did not hide anything and immediately gave a proactive response.
"As you can see, the Xuanniao unmanned air-space fighter can undertake air control, penetration and terminal strike missions."
"In the future, with our aerospace carrier, we will be able to fight in the atmosphere and near-Earth space, as well as enter deep space to fight and gain an advantage."
"Although the unmanned air-space fighter still faces many challenges, I believe that as the project progresses, these problems can be effectively solved. It won't be long before our air-space fighter officially debuts in front of the eyes of the whole world."
Originally, when everyone saw the configuration of the Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter, they were a little worried about the difficulty of its research and development.
Only after hearing what Xu Yuan said did they react.
With Xu Yuan in the project, these technical difficulties are nothing, after all, controlled nuclear fusion has been solved.
So after the idea came into mind, everyone's minds began to move quickly.
They all want to transfer the research and development tasks of unmanned air and space fighters to their own research institutes.
This time, it was Huang Yunliang who reacted first. Before anyone else could speak, he stood up and took the initiative to apply.
"Chief Designer Xu, our Xijing Aircraft Design Institute is willing to be responsible for the research and development of unmanned air-space fighters."
I still remember that their research on stealth bombers was not going well due to various reasons. Later, the weight of their stealth fighter project was further reduced due to the launch of the unmanned stealth bomber by the Jincheng Aircraft Design Institute.
Later, we had to temporarily stop research and development.
This also means that among the several research institutes under the Aviation Industry Corporation of China, they are far inferior to those in Jincheng.
So many departments are working together this time, and Xu Yuan is the chief designer of the project. If they are in charge of the Xuanniao unmanned air and space fighter, the reputation of the Xijing Aircraft Design Institute will surely reach a new peak after the project is successfully developed.
Of course, Gao Yuhe and Liang Zhanjun also had the same idea.
Almost as soon as Huang Yunliang finished speaking, the two of them put forward different opinions one after another.
"The research and development of unmanned air-space fighters should be entrusted to us."
"We at Jincheng Aircraft Design Institute have successfully developed the world's most advanced Wing Loong integrated reconnaissance and strike UAV, as well as stealth unmanned bomber and quantum UAV. No one is more professional than us in this field."
Academicians Gao Yuhe and Huang Yunliang, who were originally determined to win, suddenly lost their momentum after hearing Liang Zhanjun's words.
no way.
After all, what he said does make sense.
Relying on Xu Yuan, Jincheng Aircraft Design Institute launched the Wing Loong and stealth unmanned bomber in the field of drones. Later, it successfully realized the combination of quantum communication and drones, completely solving the problem of drones being easily interfered by intercepted signals.
Jincheng Aircraft Design Institute is indeed stronger in research and development work in the field of drones.
What's more, Xu Yuan was originally a researcher at Jincheng Aircraft Design Institute, so it was only natural to entrust the research and development task of the aerospace fighter to Jincheng Aircraft Design Institute.
How could Xu Yuan not know what he was thinking, but he had his own considerations in his mind.
It is no exaggeration to say that with his current strength and level.
No matter which research institute is responsible for the development of the Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter project, its ultimate success is inevitable.
It’s nothing more than a question of the length of the R&D cycle.
The key is that in addition to the Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter project, it is also necessary to simultaneously develop a more complex aerospace mothership.
Therefore, efficiency must be improved as much as possible.
The thought stopped here, and he immediately made a decision. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said to the three people who stood up:
"Regarding the research and development of the Xuanniao unmanned air-space fighter, I hope that the three of you will be jointly responsible for it and strive to complete the wind tunnel test as quickly as possible so that this air-space fighter can take off as soon as possible."
"Of course I will also help you solve the problem of the force field drive device."
Gao Yuhe, Liang Zhanjun and the other two had no objection to Xu Yuan's arrangement.
After all, this is the most appropriate.
So he immediately signed a military order on the spot, promising to hand in an answer sheet that would satisfy everyone.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Yuan turned his attention to Chang Hanping and Zhang Guangyi respectively.
Let them be responsible for the fighter's variable cycle engine and radar module.
Work together to build this unmanned air and space fighter.
Chang Hanping even stated that he would work with the Rocket Technology Research Institute to tackle the engine problem in the future.
With the arrangement of the Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter coming to a temporary end, the next highlight will be the aerospace mothership.
After all, it is the first aerospace carrier in China, so its naming must be different from that of an aircraft carrier. The specific code name needs to be discussed by all parties, so Xu Yuan did not mention this matter at the discussion meeting.
Compared with the Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter, the design of the aerospace mothership is much less complete.
Xu Yuan only gave a general idea.
The wingspan of the entire aerospace mothership is nearly 700 meters, and it can be considered a big guy even when it is suspended in orbit.
Theoretically, it can carry dozens of Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighters.
In addition, it relies on two sets of nuclear fusion reactors as energy, and is equipped with dozens of high-thrust composite engines.
And the equally essential force field drive device.
Whether at sea level, in the air or in deep space, it can exert tremendous combat capabilities.
After the relevant configuration data was announced, everyone at the scene was shocked again.
He even couldn't help but start imagining in his mind how powerful the force would be when the complete Xuanniao unmanned aerospace fighter and the aerospace mothership were combined.
I am afraid that for other countries in the world, it is no less than a powerful alien civilization invading the earth.
However, since all projects were kept confidential before the Xuanniao and the aerospace carrier were successfully developed, after the final discussion, it was decided to develop and manufacture the aerospace carrier and the domestically-produced aircraft carrier together.
In this way, even if any problems are discovered overseas, they will only be regarded as building a new aircraft carrier.
But it will definitely become more lively there in the future, and the number of scientific research project teams moving in will reach a very terrifying number.
Perhaps only when the first aerospace mothership is officially built, and with the help of dozens of large composite engines and force field drive devices, and relying on a nuclear fusion reactor to enable the entire mothership to leave the sea surface and enter the sky, will everyone realize that China has already become so powerful.
After finalizing the R&D and manufacturing plans for the aerospace fighter and aerospace carrier, everyone focused on optimizing the drawings.
Although the part that Xu Yuan has completed can be said to be impeccable.
But with the efforts of so many top domestic experts, the remaining parts were soon gradually improved.
One thing that made Xu Yuan smile bitterly was that everyone agreed that the firepower of the aerospace carrier was insufficient, and finally a new round of reinforcement was carried out.
For an aerospace carrier that is already difficult to destroy, this situation is probably even more unlikely.
