Chapter 354

"Eight thousand meters? General, you are not joking

Liszt's first sentence is somewhat different, but the second one is quite sure that the flight altitude of 8000 meters, let alone discovery-2, is that it is difficult for other types of UAVs to reach this target. As a leader in the field of UAVs, H company's products can't do it, and no one in the world can do it.

But savarino shook his head: "it's not only to fly at an altitude of more than 8000 meters, but also to cruise at a speed of more than 300 kilometers in accordance with the new standards just issued by the European community."

"How could that be?" Liszt laughed, not because of his reserved manners, but because he was amused by savarino's words. You should know that today's UAVs in the world can reach 160 km / h, which is regarded as high speed. Generally, they are around 130 km / h.

Among other things, the most advanced bullet a UAV in H company's hands has a maximum speed of only 156 kmh, which has already made the US military feel incredible.

We should know that the U.S. military has always been an army advocating technology, and has extremely strict requirements on the technical content of equipment. Since it can get into the eyes of the U.S. military, it can be seen that the performance of bullet a is very good.

Even the U.S. Army could conquer it, but in Europe, it even doubled the speed of UAVs. Liszt only thought Linderman's judgment was accurate.

The Europeans are delaying time with the so-called standard. The problem is that when we set the standard, we should make it more reliable. The flying altitude of 8000 meters and the flying speed of more than 300 kilometers are such indicators. Let alone H company, even if God comes, we can't make such a changed UAV.

So Liszt shook his head at a loss, and wanted to tell savarino that he was more down-to-earth. As a result, he didn't speak. Savarino's next words made his smile freeze on his face.

"Oh, no, Mr. Liszt, our new bidding company has reached the impossible target you said. At this moment, their UAVs are being tested in the sky."

Liszt, who was still walking towards the office building, immediately stopped and looked at savarino in disbelief: "general, what did you say? Has someone made such a drone? "

Savarino shrugged his shoulders, with a sneering smile on his face, and glanced out the door: "are you interested in going to have a look, Mr. Liszt?"

Lister is a little confused. Does anyone really make such a UAV? It's impossible.

However, although he thought so, he turned around and walked towards the office building. Savarino's mouth was more brilliant and he turned around and walked out quickly.

Soon a group of people came to the tower in charge of the test work. As soon as they entered, savarino, the officer in charge of monitoring, said, "what's the situation?"

"Altitude 11400 meters, speed 334 kilometers per hour, everything is normal, and we will return in eight minutes." While reporting, the officer pointed to the radar square meter in front of him and the above parameters.

Liszt looked closely, the number was ok, and the flashing light on the radar screen was normal, but Liszt's face was very strange. He immediately stood up and looked at savarino: "general, do you think a UAV can fly at a speed of 334 km at an altitude of 11000 meters? Looking at the signal strength of your radar, I doubt that you are using fighters, not drones. "

If the indicators that savarino said in the office building just now surprised Liszt a little, he came to the test tower and listened to the officer's report, then he thought it was ridiculous.

Can a UAV fly to an altitude of more than ten thousand meters? It's just a joke. H company has been working on UAVs for so many years. It's never heard that this thing can break through the altitude of 9 kilometers, let alone tens of thousands.

What's more ridiculous is that the speed is 334 km / h. what do you think of as a UAV? Extraterrestrial black technology that Superman has been kissing?

Savarino looked at the parameters and the flight notes, nodded with satisfaction, then turned his head and said with a smile: "don't make too much fuss, Mr. Liszt. What you h company can't do doesn't mean that others can't do. Actor aviation systems, a company from Stuttgart, Germany, has made disruptive improvements to the UAV.

It is the first time that the small turboprop engine is applied to the UAV, so that their products can overcome the lack of high-altitude power of the traditional piston supercharged engine. In addition, the more streamlined aerodynamic layout makes their zeus-3 UAV have subversive performance. "

Then savarino stood upright and politely thanks the woman soldier who brought her coffee. She immediately took a sip and squinted with satisfaction. Then she said again with a smile: "based on this, the European community has re established our technical standards for nuclear protection UAVs. Unexpectedly, my dear American ally actually thought of going with us, the article" eight thousand meters " "Floating objects on the wall" is the best comment on our new standard. Really, we are very grateful to our American allies for their support

What he said made Liszt completely confused. Unexpectedly, the European UAV didn't use the piston engine and went directly to the turboprop engine.Although Liszt is a businessman rather than a technical expert, he has worked on UAVs for so many years. He has never seen a pig crow, but he has also seen a pig run. He knows the difference between piston engine and turboprop engine.

One is pure mechanical power, and the other is a kind of aero-engine derived from the ignition turbine power plant, which is not only light in weight and high in power, but also can provide surging power in the thin air.

In contrast, the piston engine commonly used by H company is much weaker. It is not only difficult to improve the power, but also with the increase of flight altitude, the power of the piston engine lacking oxygen to support combustion is greatly reduced. Therefore, the flight altitude of H company's UAV is generally no more than seven kilometers.

Now, the European community has raised the target of nuclear protection UAV to a state of change, which is basically killing all efforts of H company in Europe.

"Mr. Liszt Mr. Liszt... "

When Liszt was thinking about the benefits, savarino's voice finally made Liszt recover. He laughed at him apologetically and wanted to explain, but he was stopped by savarino: "you know, Mr. Liszt, the Chernobyl nuclear pollution we suffered has been increasing, so you only have one week, if A week later, there is still no new model that meets the European standard

Savarino counseled: "we in Italy can only buy zeus-3 UAVs from actor company."
