"First of all, the vast majority of current military drones are low-speed drones, with common speeds between 200 and 400 kilometers. Some jet drones can reach speeds of 600 to 800 kilometers. kilometers, but this is already rare.

As for our unmanned fighter jet, it has super maneuverability and its maximum flight speed can reach Mach 0.9, which means it is close to the speed of sound.

Secondly, it is the stealth capability. We adopt a stealth design for this drone and use advanced absorbing materials. Ordinary radar cannot detect it at all. Even the current advanced radar has a very small reflection area. It appears on the radar screen like a sparrow, very small.

Furthermore, we have equipped this drone with an intelligent control system and cluster control technology. This also means that this drone can not only independently perform relevant tasks issued by the rear, but can also use cluster control technology to independently form an attack cluster to attack enemy targets.

Finally, we also equipped this drone with a VR immersive field of view control system. Our rear driving controllers can put on special VR helmets and be immersed in the scene, as if they were sitting in the cabin of a fighter jet, controlling the drone flexibly and freely.

This means that using this VR immersive vision control system, our rear driving controllers can perform some difficult combat tasks. Even using low-latency technology, we can not only launch strikes on the ground, but also conduct real-time air operations and attack enemy air targets.

If the drone is left to fly and attack autonomously, after discovering the target, the drone will first determine the identity of the enemy aircraft based on the identification friend or foe technology and the information database, and then select the target with the best threat to launch the attack.

Even a fleet of drones can organize themselves and assign tasks to achieve ultra-high coordination tactics in which a fleet of drones can attack multiple targets at the same time. "

"In other words, it can truly replace fighter planes in combat." Zou Xiaodong asked.

Well, Lin Jiaming was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, this is exactly our goal. But if we want to surpass real pilots, especially experienced ace pilots, we still have a long way to go.

But I believe that the speed will be very fast, just like AlphaGo playing against the top masters of Go, it will eventually defeat humans in the future.

I won’t talk about the computing speed, judgment and control, but let’s list one of them for comparison.

Unmanned fighter aircraft do not require a pilot to fly on board, so the fighter aircraft can make many large maneuvers and ultra-high-speed movements without considering the physiological stress limit of the pilot.

Therefore, in such an extreme dogfight, the pilot is likely to be no match for the unmanned fighter jet. "

Shen Ning, who had been following Wu Hao, couldn't help but interjected: "I am reminded of an American movie "Top Secret Flight". Our drone is very similar to the artificial intelligence fighter 'Eddie' in the movie. .”

After hearing Shen Ning's words, everyone laughed. As for Shen Ning, her face turned a little red under the laughter and gazes of everyone.

As an entourage and Wu Hao's secretary, it was inappropriate for her to interrupt at this time, but the drone really shocked her so much that she couldn't help but blurt it out.

Lin Jiaming naturally knew who Shen Ning was and had dealt with him before, so he was familiar with her. He nodded and smiled: "Miss Shen is right, this drone was indeed influenced by the movie "Top Secret Flight".

When we proposed the new drone project, we actually had no idea at all. Finally, a movie enthusiast in the team collected some drone clips from movies and movies for us.

In the end, we felt that the artificial intelligence fighter in "Top Secret Flight" was similar to our requirements, so we used this as inspiration to redesign the outline frame of the drone. "

"But something went wrong with the drone in the movie. It started thinking on its own and almost triggered a global war." Shen Ning couldn't help but say.

Haha, everyone chuckled when they heard this, and Lin Jiaming explained patiently: "That is just an artistic exaggeration by the movie creator. Real artificial intelligence will not be like this.

And in terms of artificial intelligence, our company is doing relatively well. As far as our current technology is concerned, we have not yet reached the level of artificial intelligence installed in the fighter jets in the movie.

Secondly, when our company started research on artificial intelligence technology, Mr. Wu set an insurmountable red line, that is, all the company's artificial intelligence products would never be allowed to have self-awareness.

Therefore, this red line is also a red line that all our scientific research and technical personnel must abide by.

And ours is a military drone, so safety and reliability are top priorities. No matter how advanced a weapon is, if it loses these two points, it will be impossible to equip troops.

Even if our drone has artificial intelligence and autonomous attack technology, it is still humans who ultimately decide to attack the target and issue attack instructions.

So to put it bluntly, it is a smart weapon, and the decision of how to use it still lies in the hands of humans. "

"Then will someone cross this red line, triggering a crisis of out-of-control smart weapons like in many science fiction movies?" This question was raised by Zou Xiaodong, who is also interested in this topic.

"Impossible!" Lin Jiaming waved his hand and said in denial: "First of all, the security and reliability of our system are still very high. It is basically impossible to tamper with the core code.

Secondly, this system is firmly under our control and cannot be accessed by others. Even if it is given to the army or sold to other countries, it is still the fists and sharp knives of the armies of various countries, and it is difficult for ordinary people to have access to it.

Furthermore, we have set up a self-destruct program on the system. If someone forcibly breaks into the system or tamper with the system code, the system will activate the self-destruct program.

Generally, there are two types of self-destruct programs. One is to self-destruct system data, including clearing system codes, system locking, etc. The other is physical self-destruction, which uses strong current to burn the circuit board and chips of the entire drone, causing it to be completely destroyed.

If necessary, the drone may even detonate its own ammunition and self-destruct.

As for the end, we will do a good job in relevant after-sales service work. Regularly help our customers perform maintenance on fighter aircraft, check the status of unmanned combat aircraft, etc.

If there is a problem, our technical staff can find it in time and deal with it in time. Of course, these can also be left to the military, and we will provide technical guidance. "
