Chapter 1186 [Too advanced, commercial use prohibited]

Today, Shunfeng led a delegation to visit Kunpeng Technology's headquarters. As a potential big customer and possibly the first commercial order, Chu Changxing should come out to receive him, but in fact it was Zhou Yang who received him.

What did Chu Changxing do?

He is not in Xincheng at the moment, but has gone to the southwest of the country in order to advertise there.

Because I happened to see on the news that the military was launching a military exercise in the southwest the day before yesterday, Chu Changxing rushed over as soon as he learned about it, and he took the initiative to sell the military exercises on his own without waiting for the military to come to his door.

I hope to be able to undertake the task of transporting supplies for the army during the exercise. I plan to use this to demonstrate the advanced performance of the large drones I developed, and to facilitate my promotion of business to the government and enterprises.

…

At around 15:00 local time.

At the military exercise site, the exercise had ended. Chu Changxing, who was waiting outside, suddenly received news that the military leaders were anxious to see him.

Chu Changxing once thought that the drone he was selling was broken during the acting process, and he was quite nervous for a while.

Just meeting the military leader, the leader pointed directly at the cargo pod on the ground and asked Chu Changxing: "Is this thing of yours a warehouse or something else?"

Hearing this, Chu Changxing hurriedly patted his chest and said, "This thing is just for delivery. It was accurately dropped directly from the air, hung with a parachute, and successfully delivered. The effect is very good. After repeated testing, it will never fall off." .”

The military leader nodded and said nothing, but kept staring at the cargo pod painted with the Kunpeng Technology logo.

After a while, Chu Changxing, who didn't understand the situation and felt uncertain, couldn't help but asked cautiously: "Chief, there was nothing wrong with the transportation airdrop, right?"

After hearing this, the military leader said: "Have you got it? Not only did it not miss the mark when performing the mission, the effect is also very good."

When Chu Changxing heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It's good that the chain didn't fall off. He was really nervous just now.

At this moment, the military leader looked at the cargo pod in front of him again and again. The more he looked at it, the more he thought it looked like a missile. In addition, this type of drone has a range of 5,500 kilometers and a ceiling of 7,000 meters. , and can also accurately short positions.

Isn't this a bomber? Is it different from a bomber?

…

The next development completely exceeded Chu Changxing's expectations. The drone he brought to participate in the military exercise was seized by the military on the spot after the military exercise. At the same time, Kunpeng Technology was stopped from manufacturing and using this drone. Cargo drones are not allowed for civilian use without permission.

Chu Changxing was also invited to drink tea. The military leaders asked him to report in detail the performance parameters of the "Kunpeng-5C" large UAV.

In this regard, Chu Changxing naturally answered truthfully in front of the boss.

Then the leader asked about the production cost of the "Kunpeng-5C" drone and learned that the production cost of a single drone with such excellent performance was only 3 million yuan.

Military: Dele, bring it to you!

Your company built this thing just to make money, so why would it be used by the people? We will directly place a military purchase order for you, and the castrated version of the foreign trade model will help you export it to the big dogs when it comes out. Not only will your company's R\u0026D investment not be wasted, but it will also make more money.

We are planning to invest heavily in the research and development of military unmanned bombers. If you don't feel sleepy, just give me a pillow.

As Chu Changxing "explained" the details one by one, the military leaders did not expect that there would be more surprises. They learned that the current performance of this "Kunpeng-5C" UAV was deliberately compressed in order to control costs, that is to say, the performance Is there still room for improvement?

If cost factors are not considered, the maximum range of this drone can reach 8,000 kilometers, the maximum ceiling can reach 10,000 meters, the maximum speed is 355 kilometers per hour, and it can fly continuously for 45 hours.

Okay!

Civilians need to consider saving money, but military use does not. At least the cost issue is not the first priority, but performance is more needed. The military leaders directly asked me to improve the performance and maximize the performance.

Given that the current version of the aircraft is only 3 million yuan, no matter how much the cost of the upgraded version increases, no matter how high the cost of the military upgraded version is, it cannot be a fraction of that of a conventional aircraft.

Change the color and apply it, then rub off the Kunpeng Technology logo and replace it with the military's own logo. At the same time, replace the cargo pods under the wings with a row of genuine missiles. This is a proper military-grade long-range unmanned bomber.

The maximum range of the drone itself can reach 8,000 kilometers. This range has reached the range threshold of intercontinental missiles. It can fly directly from the mainland to Hawaii, America. If the mounted ballistic range is 1,000 kilometers, then It has an attack range of 9,000 kilometers. At the extreme end, it can even fly directly to the west coast of America.

And this is just a cheap drone. Its flying speed is about the same as that of a high-speed train. Compared with real intercontinental ballistic missiles, which are often dozens of times the speed of sound, it can be called a turtle speed. But it is too cheap to hold up. .

The price of a missile is higher than that, and the cost of an intercontinental ballistic missile is even more so. How many such drones can be built, and the maintenance costs are extremely cheap, and the existing production lines of private enterprises can be used. If we really want to fight in the war When it comes to rapid mass production, it will definitely be a disaster.

Chu Changxing's detailed "explanation" surprised the military leaders more than that. At this moment, he was talking to several military leaders who were asking questions: "...In our design concept, this model is a military-civilian model. At the military level, unmanned drones can also be mounted. Each drone weighs more than 100 kilograms and can replace the mother aircraft to perform reconnaissance missions in dangerous areas. The drone can also carry bombs alone to perform combat missions, and can be released when necessary. The decoy blocks the mother aircraft’s gunfire.”

“In addition, the UAV can also realize intelligent cluster control, satellite remote control and other functions, and has the ability to conduct reconnaissance and strike at the same time. The pilot does not need to get on the plane at all, he can control it by playing on the computer at the base, and the operator can control it at the same time. Several drones perform missions..."

One of the military leaders said: "Don't even think about civilian use of this drone. This is a real military product."

Chu Changxing scratched his head in embarrassment and politeness, and said weakly: "That's right, if this thing is bought and modified by the veterans in the Middle East, even the original civilian cargo aircraft will be greatly improved. Interfering with the direction of the local situation is equivalent to actually selling bomber-level drones, and selling them so cheaply..."

The military leader smiled and said: "This drone is banned for military use, but your company is still allowed to produce and use drones, but the maximum load capacity is limited to 20 kilograms, the maximum range is limited to 30 kilometers, and the speed No more than 20 meters/second. This indicator is enough for civilian logistics. Let’s work on urban terminal distribution. For long-distance freight between cities, it is better to use ordinary airplane consignment. It is enough to develop the technology, and it is not necessary. So volume.”

The leader added: "Otherwise, it wouldn't be appropriate if you let such big guys fly all over the country and buy and sell at will..."

After saying this, Chu Changxing once again scratched his head in an honest manner, and was speechless for a while.

After drinking tea, Chu Changxing returned to the new city, but the drone he brought failed to go back with him.

There is no way to go back, the military has to stay for further research and more rigorous testing.
