Chapter 859 Regret in Surprise

This is a special stealth material with certain wave-absorbing and light-absorbing capabilities. To put it simply, it is able to absorb most of the light shining on it, thereby reducing the possibility of being discovered.

Most of the objects that we humans can see can be seen by our eyes because these objects reflect light instead of emitting light.

When the projected light source is absorbed or not reflected back, it is difficult for the human eye to see the object.

Of course, it only has a certain light-absorbing ability, so the human eye can still see it, and it cannot achieve a full sense of optical stealth effect.

But in certain environments, it still has some optical stealth capabilities.

For example, in the low-visibility environment at night, this special stealth coating can make this smart attack drone and the night sky better integrated, and it is not easy to be discovered by the naked eye. In addition, it is not easy to be detected by radar, so the stealth performance has been greatly improved.

Zi...

With a piercing sound, the first smart attack UAV landed very smoothly on the runway and raised its speedbrake.

Because the fighter plane adopts a super aerodynamic shape, the starting shape of the fuselage is very smooth and streamlined, so it needs to be assisted by speed brakes to slow down.

Otherwise, the drone may run off the runway due to excessive speed, or the brake pads may overheat, tires may catch fire and other accidents due to prolonged braking at high speed.

Now fighter planes have related deceleration devices. In addition to the speed brakes, there are actually deceleration parachutes, just like parachutes, at the tail of the aircraft.

When the fighter plane taxis at high speed on the runway after landing, the parachute is released, thereby decelerating the fighter plane due to the huge air resistance.

It's just that the drogue parachute needs to be thrown away after each use, and then folded and installed again, which is not conducive to the continuous combat of the fighter's second lift-off in a short period of time. So now the air force fighters of many countries, including our country, have gradually turned to using speed brakes.

In addition to this deceleration method, there is actually another method, that is, engine reverse thrust. It's just that this method is generally used on large aircraft with external engines, and fighter jets with built-in engines generally do not use this method.

Of course, fighter jets in some countries are equipped with two deceleration schemes, which are generally used in conjunction with deceleration brakes and deceleration parachutes.

On the one hand, its purpose is to play the role of double insurance,

On the other hand, it is also to deal with take-off and landing in extreme situations.

For example, when taking off and landing at some short-distance combat readiness airports, using these two deceleration methods can make the fighter plane stop quickly.

On the other hand, it is also for short-distance take-off and landing when the runway is damaged during wartime.

At present, their smart attack drone is only equipped with speed brakes. As for the deceleration parachute, it will be added later according to the needs of customers.

As this smart attack UAV gradually slowed down and slowly slid to the tarmac, another smart attack UAV also successfully landed on the runway.

Under the guidance of the guide, the drone, which had been switched to the manual remote control mode, slowly slid to the preset position and stopped steadily.

As the engine shut down, the technicians and maintenance personnel who were waiting on the sidelines had already stepped forward and began to check nervously.

Seeing this, the people who were waiting on the tarmac immediately walked towards the stable drone.

Looking at the technicians and maintenance personnel who were inspecting, everyone did not step forward to disturb, but stood around there.

Suddenly, Luo Kai saw the touch of green on the wing, and couldn't help touching it and said: "Look, is this the leaf that rubbed against the leaves when flying at ultra-low altitude?"

Seeing the green color on Luo Kai's hands, everyone nodded involuntarily. Indeed, when a fighter plane is flying at an ultra-low altitude, it is likely to hit some objects, such as leaves and treetops, which is very common.

Of course, generally for the sake of safety, they will not descend to that extreme height. Usually, there are more helicopters, because it is the "killer in the treetops".

The only time this fighter plane flew at ultra-low altitude was in the mountains and canyons, where it was able to touch the leaves, which is enough to explain the limit of the flying altitude at that time.

So this naturally aroused everyone's amazement. The automatic flight control ability of this drone is indeed very strong, comparable to an ace pilot.

"Okay!" Xiao Yunfei patted the flat nose of the UAV, showing a regretful smile: "This exercise has shown us the excellent performance of this intelligent attack UAV. We are an eye-opener.

But it's still a pity, that is, I didn't see this fighter plane mount live ammunition to shoot targets. "

Everyone couldn't help but nodded when they heard the words, this is indeed a pity.

But there is no way. On the one hand, it is not easy for this important city in Gyeonggi to approve this drone autonomous flight exercise, let alone allow the drone to carry live ammunition for autonomous attacks.

There are too many uncontrollable factors and too much risk, no one can afford to be surprised in this regard, so it can only be cancelled.

As a private enterprise, it can be said that it is very difficult to obtain live ammunition, and it needs to go through very complicated procedures.

Therefore, the previous tests at the Northwest Research Center were basically mounted training bombs, that is, solid model bombs. Its main purpose is to test the built-in magazine of this smart attack drone.

These include the opening and closing of the built-in magazine of the drone under high-speed flight, and the impact on the aerodynamic shape of the drone when the built-in magazine is opened, and even the impact on the stealth performance after the magazine is opened, etc. .

To say that there are also live ammunition shootings. Before the Northwest Research Center, with the help of the Air Force, they conducted two very successful live ammunition shooting missions.

Once, the smart attack UAV dropped a domestically-made UAV-specific air-to-surface missile at an altitude of 5,000 meters, and successfully focused on the bullseye of the ground target.

The second time, the UAV successfully launched an air-to-air missile at an altitude of 3,000 meters, and hit the flying target aircraft ahead.

The success of these two live ammunition shootings means that their smart attack UAV has very good ground and air attack capabilities.

Originally, Wu Hao and the others wanted to show off this exercise. But the environment does not allow it, so this is also a regret for everyone in this exercise.

Although there are regrets, it does not hinder the success of this exercise. Judging from the reactions of everyone, their smart attack drone really conquered everyone on the scene with its excellent performance.

That's why Xiao Yunfei was so excited. After the exercise, he came to the tarmac again to welcome the drone to return and land.
