The fastest is five years and the slowest is eight years.
No matter the fastest or the slowest, this time period is extremely short for a fourth-generation stealth fighter.
If compared to other aviation equipment research institutions, it would take 5-8 years to complete the research and development work, which is simply a fantasy.
Mission impossible!
"Model development model, 5% Dimensity computing resources, 30% pre-planning funds, and my personal strength." After hearing this question, Zuo Xue did not hide it, and gave four keywords to tell him what he relied on.
The words are natural and calm, without any hint of pride.
"Tell me briefly."
Yang Wei became interested and even more curious.
What is a model development model?
"Recently, I have been studying sequences, topology and calculus, and I have gained a lot. I have found that mathematical logical thinking is very helpful in the research and development of fighter aircraft. Recently, I have a preliminary idea to establish a model development model based on mathematical logic, etc. This model is officially established, and the model research and development efficiency will be increased by at least 200%."
Zuo Xue sorted out her words and then told the truth: "5% of Dimensity's computing resources and my personal strength can ensure that research and development work proceeds at a high speed. The 30% of the upfront funds that have been put in place can be used to rent the computing resources of the National Supercomputing Center. The research and development efficiency will be greatly accelerated. According to mathematical calculations, I finally concluded that it only takes 5-8 years to complete the research and development work."
"In other words, you are going to adopt the research and development method of model development model + supercomputing + personal strength." Yang Wei pondered for a moment and pointed out the key point: "Among them, the most important thing is the model development model."
Zuo Xue nodded: "Yes."
The machine development model was the inspiration that came from Zuo Xue’s recent in-depth study in the field of mathematics.
Aerodynamic layout, airframe structure, space arrangement, overall integration, and avionics layout each correspond to different branches of mathematics, and mathematical logic thinking can be used to carry out corresponding design and development work.
However, if it is based on mathematics, a large number of repetitive calculation processes and a large amount of data will be generated, and supercomputing must be used to run this model.
The more supercomputers there are, the higher the efficiency.
With 5% Dimensity computing resources, the development work can be completed in 8 years at the earliest.
If project funds are used to rent a national supercomputing center, research and development efficiency will increase exponentially. This is why Zuo Xue dared to say that an additional US$10 billion in funds will be added and the research and development time will be shortened to three and a half years.
Mathematics gave her courage.
"Very good, this is a very good way of research and development. Regarding the research and development model of this aircraft, just ask for anything you need, and the institute will try its best to satisfy you. If you can't satisfy it, just contact the state."
Regarding Zuo Xue's idea, Yang Wei repeatedly praised Zuo Xue, and then emphasized the importance of the aircraft model development model: "In addition, the development model of this aircraft model will be kept private for the time being and cannot be disclosed to others. Does anyone else know about this model? ?”
Confidentiality.
Once the aircraft model development model is established and effective, it will be equivalent to a 'multiplier' in the field of aviation equipment research and development. It is not an exaggeration to call it a national trump card and must be kept strictly confidential.
How terrible is it to double the efficiency of fighter aircraft research and development?
The original research and development time of 15 years now takes only 7.5 years to develop the model using machine models!
If it were used on Project No. 25, the scene would be... unimaginable.
Moreover, according to Zuo Xue's description, the efficiency of machine development model development is not fixed, but increases with the increase in computing resources.
200% R&D efficiency is just a benchmark, and it can even increase to 250%, 300%, and 350% in the future.
From this point of view, the value of this research and development model is higher.
"I understand, no more, it's just you and me."
There is no need for Yang Wei to emphasize that Zuo Xue, who originally came up with this idea, already knew that the aircraft development model was extremely important and needed to be kept highly confidential.
Regarding this model, she didn't even disclose it to her mentor Su Rui.
"That's good. The concept of the aircraft model development model is very good. This is a scientific research achievement at the level of the National Science and Technology Progress Award. You need to study it."
Yang Wei nodded and gave Zuo Xue a preliminary assessment of the aircraft development model based on his experience. He looked at Zuo Xue and smiled: "Okay, that's it for now, I won't talk nonsense. You can go back first and enjoy it." Let’s take a look at the fruits of victory and give the good news to Lao Su.”
"Okay, teacher." Zuo Xue nodded seriously and bowed slightly as a farewell.
The words fell and he left.
Zuo Xue walked out of Chengfei's main design building with a victor's attitude and the huge fruits of victory, looking up at the blue sky with a smile on his face.
Tomorrow, she will receive a job assignment from her superior organization and become a dazzling chief engineer-level figure, working with her teacher Yang Wei on the Sino-Iranian joint stealth fighter development plan.
The sky is beautiful.
very good mood.
Chengfei Park was quiet in the afternoon.
Outside, Chengdu is still prosperous.
…
Capital, Chaoguang District, AVIC Headquarters.
18th floor, AVIC Headquarters Conference Hall.
"Everyone is here. Three hours ago, the joint stealth fighter program model review meeting ended. Iran selected the Z-1 program as the model under development. At present, Academician Yang has submitted the job list of the R&D team personnel. The Z-1 program The number has been changed to CF-28 'Phantom', circulate it to everyone, and talk about the situation of the core team of the R&D team." The top person in charge of AVIC, sitting at the head of the circular conference table, held a special cigarette in his right hand and took a puff. , exhaling a circle of white smoke, and said to the four people who had already arrived.
There is a top-secret document on the desktop, which clearly records the job list of the joint stealth fighter program research and development team, as well as other relevant information.
Chief designer of the CF-28 'Phantom' model: Yang Wei.
There are four deputy chief designers: Han Cheng, Xu Yun, Cao Pingan, and Zuo Xiaoxue.
Han Cheng: Former deputy chief designer of Chengdu Aircraft General Department, deputy director of the general department, and chief designer. He served as the leader of the overall team of the joint stealth fighter program and was responsible for the overall structure of the aircraft.
Xu Yun: Former deputy director of Chengdu Aircraft Aerodynamics Department and chief designer. He serves as the leader of the aerodynamics team of the Joint Stealth Fighter Program and is responsible for the aerodynamic layout of the aircraft.
Cao Ping'an: Former deputy director of Chengdu Aircraft Structure Department, chief designer, and leader of the aircraft structure group, responsible for the airframe structure.
Zuo Xiaoxue: Master of Engineering at the National University of Defense Technology, a bachelor's degree in flight design, the main creator of the Z-1 'Ghost' concept aircraft, and serves as the deputy leader of the aerodynamics team and the leader of the flight control team, responsible for the aerodynamic layout and flight control system.
This is the core team of the CF-28 'Phantom' R&D team.
In the conference room, the four people read the entire document separately to understand the situation.
"The more controversial situation at the moment is Comrade Zuo Xiaoxue of the core team. As far as I know, this comrade is the apprentice of Director Yang Wei. He is studying for a master's degree in engineering at the National University of Defense Technology. He graduated two months later and won the honorary title while in school. The second-class military science and technology progress award and the second-class personal merit, he has participated in many key national defense projects, and his scientific research talent has reached the special level, which is consistent with Academician Yang Wei."
