Military Technology

On the 23rd, the weather was fine with no wind and clouds.

Early morning, everyone rose. After eating a few large buns made by the villagers, everyone hurried to the test field.

Except for those who are on duty at the test flight these days, everyone has been staying at the homes of villagers who are not far away.

Although the accommodation conditions are relatively poor, the villagers are relatively enthusiastic and the food is not bad.

Today is the day of the test flight, so in addition to Wu Hao and Zhao Hongzhe's research team members, there are some other helpers.

These people will be scattered at various observation points with a radius of tens of kilometers in order to observe and record the first-hand data.

In addition, they also installed cameras on nearly one hundred drones to record the flight attitude of the entire fleet in multiple directions.

In addition, the research team also relied on the advantages of the service to apply for relevant drone reconnaissance assistance from the Air Force. They will observe and record the flight test process of the entire drone cluster from the air when they test.

Of course, that's not all. There is also a mobile radar unit on the ridge not far away to search and detect the flight data of the entire drone cluster.

In addition to helping to record relevant data, it is also a targeted test. They also want to know what the state of such a high-density drone cluster is in the radar. The entire test conditions can be described as very luxurious.

"Are you ready?" Zhao Hongzhe asked at the crowd, sitting under the tent.

"Everything is ready, you can start at any time!" As the on-site master dispatcher, Gao Feihang replied loudly.

Zhao Hongzhe beckoned and said, "Let's get started!"

"All departments are ready, the 'Buzz Bee' system is activated, the drone is activated, and networking is started!"

"Flying field report, the drones have all been activated and in good condition!"

"The network was successful, and the upload of the 'Buzz Bee' system started."

"The system is uploaded and loading is started. 10%, 20%, 30% ... 100%, the system is loaded and restarted."

"After the restart, the data shows that a total of 3,482 drones are in a normal state and 12 have failed. Within the allowable failure rate of 1%, the next step can be performed.

After listening to these, Gao Feihang looked at his teacher, and Zhao Hongzhe nodded at him slightly when he saw this.

Gao Feihang took a breath, and then continued to give orders: "Attention from all departments, drones are about to fly.

5,4,3,2,1, let go! "

"Flying Field Report, the first drone has started to launch!"

The crowd who gathered at the control center heard the words, and they picked up the binoculars that had been held in their hands and began to look up.

I saw the drone launcher placed on the ridge in the distance, and started to launch the white drone quickly outward.

A drone was ejected, and then quickly flew into the distant airspace.

At the same time, a new command came from the command and control center: "Drone clusters begin to gather in airspace No. 3!"

As the order was issued, I saw a satellite map on the large display in front of the crowd, and some blue dots on the map were moving. This is the flight track data transmitted by the drone cluster.

It took about ten minutes, and more than 3,000 drones were launched, and then assembled into a huge fleet in airspace No. 3. These drones hovered in the air like a group of densely flying birds.

Through the telescope and the high-definition video images transmitted from the observation points below the airspace of No. 3, everyone can clearly see the flight status of the entire fleet.

报告 "Report, the comprehensive optoelectronic reconnaissance data of the Air Force drone came over."

接到 "Received on the big screen!" Zhao Hongzhe waved.

Under everyone's attention, a video image taken by a high-altitude drone appeared on the big screen.

I saw a large group of drones circling an oval shape in a relatively open valley.

"Zoom in!"

鸿 Zhao Hongzhe pointed at the screen and said to the crowd: "You see, the entire structure of the drone cluster is still very complete, and the spacing within the cluster is also well controlled."

"Yes, the data is also performing well!" Yang Xuehai stared at the data on several screens and smiled.

"Let's start the next project, let's try to test more today." Zhao Hongzhe waved with satisfaction.

What could please him at this moment more than the preliminary results of this project. Thinking of this, he could not help but glance at Wu Ha, who was sitting beside him, and his mouth could not help rising.

"The next test content, simulate the cluster autonomous attack test."

With the order of Gao Feihang, the operator immediately marked five points on the satellite map, each of which had a different size and a different distance.

As the order was uploaded to the drone cluster, I saw five squadrons separated from the entire fleet. Through monitoring information and data, Wu Hao can clearly see the number and direction of these separated drone squads.

五个 The number of these five squadrons is more or less. The few are thirty or forty, and the most are one or two hundred. According to the size of these marked points, the five drone squads also made corresponding choices.

And all of this is controlled autonomously by the drone cluster. The UU reading book www.uukanshu.com control center just issued a few target points to the cluster.

Crackling ...

Everyone applauded when they saw this, and the fact that drone clusters can do this means that their technology has been more than half successful.

"Release the attack mission, order these five squadrons to fly to airspace No. 7 to gather!" Zhao Hongzhe ordered.

"Yes!"

As the five target points on the map disappeared, the five drone squads began to change direction and flew towards the airspace of No. 7.

"The main cluster of drones began to perform terrain matching and autonomous route selection tests."

This test content requires the UAV cluster to support low-altitude or ultra-low-altitude slightly lower flight with the support of satellite navigation and digital terrain matching navigation technology. And according to the terrain and terrain, autonomously choose the flight route.

This is a bit like the function of automatically planning the navigation route in the navigation software we use, but the difficulty is not a level.

路线 The automatic route planning in the navigation software is based on the choices made by existing road routes. That is to say, there are already existing routes. The navigation software just selects a shorter route, better road conditions, and no congested routes.

However, the technology in the drone cluster is to plan N alternative routes in areas without routes. It also takes into consideration factors such as terrain, distance, and climate information to make the best choice.

As the order was issued, I saw the hovering drone cluster on the satellite map on the screen turned into a long dragon and began to fly to the marked area. At the same time, several planned schemes appeared on the map, as well as a flight route it independently selected.
