And that trip to Jijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and in-depth exchanges with Jin Jiulin and other aviation majors, gave Xu You valuable practical experience.

It's just that the only thing that makes the people in the institute feel a little regretful is that.

Xu You seems to be too advanced in some designs.

"Professor Xu, to be honest, we are very satisfied with these designs of yours, and even this has far exceeded the aero-engine design schemes we can think of. However, due to the limitations of materials and processing techniques, some of your design schemes , we may not be able to achieve it.”

Xu You also felt in his heart that the design plan was a little ahead of schedule.

When designing these "style files", Xu You never thought about the application, so he didn't consider the current situation of domestic engine parts manufacturing capabilities.

To actually use these designs for applications, many modifications must be made.

"This is my problem, and it does not take into account the current status of our manufacturing capabilities. If it is convenient, please let me know more about our current related process technology."

Seeing Xu You's humble attitude, the leaders of the research institute felt a little embarrassed.

"It's still our hardware conditions that can't keep up with Professor Xu's design concept. We managed to invite Professor Xu over here, of course there is no inconvenience."

With the help of the staff of the institute, Xu You began to understand some key materials that are currently used in aircraft engines or will be used in aircraft engines, as well as the capabilities of various related processing and preparation processes.

Xu You's idea is that if it is a technology that he can solve relatively easily, he can directly help the research institute solve it.

Of course, it is impossible for Xu You to do all the work by himself, and more designs still need to be carried out according to the current level of craftsmanship.

"Professor Xu, these resin-based composite materials are ideal materials for the high-temperature cold-end parts of our current aero-engines. For example, we are developing this new type of carbon fiber composite material, which can be used for a long time at a temperature of 500 degrees Celsius. , and has the characteristics of high strength, high modulus and high toughness, and has great application feasibility..."

Each material has different required properties because of its different fields of application.

After a detailed understanding, Xu You has basically grasped the current situation of our country in the field of aerospace engines.

On this basis, Xu You combined various conditions and revised the "style files" of the aero-engines he had previously designed.

During this period, Xu You also contributed some new material technologies, which can be used to prepare more powerful aero-engines.

In this way, the design work on the new aero-engine is progressing steadily.

Just as Xu You's work was coming to an end, the research institute received a new urgent task.

Some UCAV technologies need to be studied.

At this time, the leaders of the research institute were even ashamed to ask Xu You for help.

After all, Xu You has already contributed so many key technologies to the research institute, it would be unreasonable to delay Xu You's time.

But Xu You is the one who likes to escape.

Seeing that the staff of the research institute were so busy, Xu You simply went directly to the leader of the research institute and asked about it.

"Is there any new task for the research institute?"

"Yes, there is an urgent task."

"Is it convenient for me to understand?"

"Convenience is of course convenience, but...Professor Xu, won't this bother you?"

"It's okay, please let me understand."

Xu You already has a very high level of information authority internally. Xu You has the right to obtain information for almost all large-scale scientific research projects.

Through the leader's narration, Xu You learned the main purpose of this urgent mission.

"As far as the technology of unmanned fighter jets is concerned, I should be competent."

"Really, Professor Xu? That's really great!"

The leaders of the research institute did not expect that Xu You would readily agree to continue helping.

Having Xu You, a world-class scientist, is of great significance to the research work.

Linking this urgent task with some things that happened before, Xu You came to some conclusions of his own.

These new types of aircraft, as well as UAV technology, are likely to be prepared for the next "code-named four" and "code-named five" aircraft carriers, as the carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier.

Or, these technologies are also prepared for emergencies that may break out at any time.

The communication with Che Shaozhong made Xu You much sharper in this regard.

After some study and research, Xu You learned all kinds of knowledge about UCAVs.

Compared with ordinary military fighter jets, pilots are required to operate them differently.

The UCAV is controlled by radio and program.

In this way, unnecessary sacrifices of pilots and expensive economic losses can be avoided.

Because training a fighter pilot not only requires a lot of economic cost, but also a lot of time cost.

The loss of a valuable fighter pilot is a very serious loss to the country.

At the same time, UCAVs also have their own disadvantages.

Due to technical limitations, unmanned fighter jets are still performing some large and complex tasks.

Many important tasks still require the pilot to personally fly the aircraft.

The purpose of this research is to allow unmanned fighter jets to perform as many and more important tasks as possible.

If this goal can be achieved, then we can achieve our goal at a lower cost.

One of the core parts in the research of unmanned combat aircraft is the photoelectric mission load technology.

The so-called mission load refers to the instruments, equipment, systems, etc. carried by the UAV to realize the specific mission of UAV flight.

Among them, the photoelectric task load is a very important part.

Including visible light payloads, infrared thermal imaging cameras, ultraviolet thermal imaging cameras, synthetic aperture radar, lidar, multispectral cameras, and more.

According to the requirements, the new generation of unmanned aerial vehicles needs to be able to quickly obtain information on the battlefield, conduct situational awareness in a timely manner, and have certain guided weapon guidance functions.

Only in this way can we contribute key forces in the current military operations.

Through careful analysis, Xu You determined that with the capabilities of the current photoelectric mission payload equipment, such a function can be fully realized.

However, it is necessary to optimize the design of the UCAV and the entire optoelectronic mission system in order to realize the full potential of these devices.
