Chapter 86 Xu Hua's Decapitation Tactics
Time flies, and more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye. Ever since Zhu Xingguo said that he would be in charge of the drone project, Lin Dong has not heard anything about this matter except for emails about the Emei project and the third-generation single crystal nickel-based material project.
Lin Dong's uncle, Zhang Fangxu, has visited the Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group base several times recently, bringing Lin Dong a lot of gifts, toys, and game consoles each time.
of course.
Zhang Fangxu, the uncle, was unaware that the drone technology came from his nephew Lin Dong; he assumed it was all the work of his brother-in-law Lin Weiliang.
This certainly made Comrade Lin Weiliang save face in front of his family, and he straightened his back and even walked with more confidence.
It's 7 PM.
At the training ground, summer insects chirped incessantly outside the window.
The evening breeze, carrying the distinctive smell of gunpowder and fresh grass from the training ground, slipped in through the gaps in the screen window.
Today is May 16th, and the exercise will be held the day after tomorrow.
Lin Dong and the others had already taken leave and came to the training ground to stay overnight. They would go to Guangxi Province with the Red Team tomorrow.
Today is the last day, and no one is training anymore.
Some people stayed in their dormitories, while others went to the command post's sand table to analyze and deduce the Blue Force's positions and practice combat tactics.
Lin Dong did not participate in these matters; he came to the command post under the pretext of playing games.
One person went into Lin Weiliang's office, locked the door, and wrote down formulas that only he could understand on a piece of paper, quickly verifying the data.
"The scramjet shock device is not perfect yet. The test data from 624 shows that the total pressure loss inside the engine is too great. Although it did not stop the engine, the thrust was directly lost by 58.6%."
"However, the advantage is that it verified a lot of data and eliminated many incorrect directions."
"The next step is to make further improvements and conduct one more test, and we will be able to overcome this challenge of fuel mixing."
It took more than half an hour.
After verifying the last data point for today.
Lin Dong looked at the results of his calculations, quickly reviewed them in his mind, and the fatigue that had accumulated for more than ten days was exhaled in one breath, and he breathed a deep sigh of relief.
Since receiving all the data from the supercombustion test device more than ten days ago, he has been working on analysis and verification.
no way.
Superburning tests are too difficult to conduct.
At this time, there is almost no research on supercombustion in China.
There is only one laboratory in the whole country that can do this, and the number of people who can complete the equipment debugging and calculate effective data, including retirees, is probably less than five.
Last time, when Wang Xingguo was asked to seek help from Institute 624, Chief Engineer Jiao You disappeared for a week. If this happens a few more times, the progress of the Emei project will likely be delayed.
In this situation, Lin Dong could only rely on mental calculations to perfect the superheated shock wave model as much as possible and reduce the number of experiments.
After spending more than ten days and countless hours, I finally found the hidden parameter route.
Next, we just need to follow this route step by step to refine and supplement the detailed parameters, and then conduct another supercharge test to verify that the data is correct.
Then one of the two core problems that has puzzled engine experts around the world for decades, the supercharged engine, can be considered solved.
"Very good. One of the two key problems has been solved, which is halfway through the project. In other words, the design of the supercharged engine is about to be completed."
Lin Dong stretched, his bones crackling slightly, then stuffed all the stained papers into the secure shredder. After making sure nothing was missing, he opened the door and went outside.
"Lin Dong, come here quickly!"
Just as Lin Dong locked the office door, Zhang Yihao, who was standing in front of the sand table, saw him and immediately waved enthusiastically, saying, "We're discussing tactics, looking at the locations that Xu Hua has identified as possible for the Blue Team's command posts."
"Dongzi, come and take a look!"
"I speculate that the Blue Team's command post will be located in one of these three mountain forests."
When Xu Hua saw Lin Dong come out, he called out and picked up three blue flags, planting them in three places on the sand table.
"We'll control our drones to storm this place and destroy the Blue Team's command post. We'll take the top credit for the exercise!"
"Really?"
Before Lin Dong could answer, Li Tao couldn't help but shout excitedly.
After nearly a month of training together, everyone already knows Xu Hua's identity.
He is indeed a family member of a mid-level military officer in Guangzhou, but he also has a grandfather who is the head of a major region in Guangzhou.
The unit playing the role of the Blue Force armored division in this exercise came from the Yangcheng Military Region, which makes Xu Hua's analysis quite credible.
If Xu Hua really manages to pinpoint the location of the Blue Team's command post—
Then, amidst a vast army, charge into battle and behead the enemy general!
Such a record, even if you search through all the historical anecdotes, can be described as a remarkable achievement!
"There's definitely no problem!"
Xu Hua raised his chin slightly, his expression full of confidence: "I've watched the old man do sand table simulations at home since I was a child. He would explain and analyze to me why he arranged things this way. I know his habits better than he does himself."
The headquarters' announcement of this exercise revealed the presence of drones.
The old man will definitely use the mountainous terrain, combined with anti-aircraft artillery positions, to form a defensive line against drone attacks.
Based on his past habits, I'm 80% certain that if I can pinpoint which of these three locations has an anti-aircraft artillery position, then that location is definitely the command post! One hundred percent certain!
"Mountain forests combined with anti-aircraft artillery positions are indeed a cost-effective way to defend against drones. Combined with habitual analysis, this makes it highly credible."
Lin Dong nodded and gestured with his hand in the middle of the sand table to indicate the distance between the two sides: "But each of us can only operate one FPV drone at a time."
The Blue Team's command post is heavily defended. What if our first decapitation strike fails, and the Blue Team notices and starts moving their command post?
The exercise area designated this time has a radius of 16 kilometers, a diameter of 32 kilometers, and an area of 803 square kilometers, which is roughly half the size of Shenzhen.
The size of the city.
It includes valleys, plains, forests and other terrains, with a small river running through the middle.
Thanks to the swarm system, drones have a great advantage in flexibility. Currently, Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group's drone system is mainly based on multi-rotor drones, which are more flexible.
Ten years from now, the fixed-wing drones with small motorcycle engines and the fiber optic drones that resemble spiders pulling silk will only have a very small number of configurations due to their significantly lower flexibility.
For a drone to attack the Blue Team's command post, it would have to fly at least 20 kilometers, which is roughly the limit of its own endurance.
This means there can't be too much fighting along the way. If we encounter an interception, we'll either be shot down or have our time wasted and we won't have enough stamina.
Regardless of the method, this would expose their decapitation intent, leading to an emergency relocation of the Blue Team's command post.
To truly achieve a decapitation strike, it is necessary to anticipate the Blue Force's command post's withdrawal route and conduct a surprise ambush.
"Then we'll split into two groups and ambush them in these three directions beforehand. These are also my grandfather's favorite retreat routes!"
Without hesitation, Xu Hua placed three directional markers on the markers, one for each command post location analyzed.
"That completes the plan. If there are no other problems, I'll participate as well."
Lin Dong smiled and did not object when he saw Xu Hua's serious expression.
"Qingling".
After discussing tactics, Lin Dong looked around the command center but didn't see Lin Weiliang. He turned to Xu Qingling and asked, "Where are my dad and the others?"
"I went over there with Uncle Wei and Uncle Su from the Cheetah Special Forces to talk about something."
Xu Qingling smiled, pointed to the small cubicle next to her, and kept her gaze fixed on Lin Dong.
"I'll go take a look and give the keys to my dad."
Lin Dong noticed that the door to the cubicle was not closed, so he greeted Xu Qingling and went over.
