One had to know that the current drones were mainly controlled by the ground console. To put it bluntly, drones were just the difference between the pilot flying on the plane and on the ground.
However, drones were extremely susceptible to interference, so they had not become mainstream at the moment. They were still dominated by manned aircraft.
However, the AI flight control system that Qi Yin had specially developed for this drone was different. The drones with autonomous combat capabilities were also the focus of research in various countries.
The so-called intelligent AI was that the drone had its own consciousness. As long as you gave it the corresponding command, it would obtain various data from the data link and then automatically identify and attack the target.
That was to say, AI was used to replace manpower to complete the mission. This way, the fault tolerance rate was also very high. Moreover, the drone could make higher overload movements to avoid attacks, and the survivability and other aspects were better.
This flight control system was mainly composed of a high-performance computer and various sensors and detectors. It had a very high resolution.
If drones had autonomous combat capabilities, they would definitely become the main force of various countries in the future. This would be a showdown between machines, not a showdown between humans.
After all, compared to humans, AI's reaction speed and other aspects were faster. Even if they lost it, it would not be very painful.
The engine and AI were the biggest advantages of Qi Yin's drone. He believed that the military would be very satisfied with this drone.
With its powerful stealth ability, it could completely penetrate deep into the enemy's territory for reconnaissance, detection, and even attack. The Air Force had no reason not to equip it.
When Qi Yin was shooting, he had positioned this stealth drone mainly for reconnaissance and supplemented by attack. It was mainly for long-term tracking, surveillance, and identification. The bomb load of one ton was also theoretical, but the actual bomb load was about 800KG.
However, this was enough for a drone that was mainly used for reconnaissance.
Of course, the products for export were not as powerful. The difference was that the power, range, and endurance had been shortened a lot, and the AI intelligent flight control system had been eliminated.
Moreover, Qi Yin had installed a very secretive backdoor. Not only could he monitor the existence of these drones, but once the enemy used these drones to deal with the ancient country, he only needed to press a button and these drones would become a pile of scrap metal.
Although the foreign trade version had been weakened a lot, it was still very strong in this market where stealth drones were empty.
With a maximum take-off weight of 10 tons, it could carry nearly 1 ton of ammunition. It was a stealth unmanned combat aircraft that could not only carry out air combat, reconnaissance, but also attack the ground.
The only drawback of this fighter jet was probably radio interference. Although Qi Yin had strengthened the strength of the radio and was equipped with anti-interference devices, he could not change the natural shortcomings of the radio.
If he developed a quantum communication system in the future, this problem could be completely solved.
On the day the gyrfalcon stealth drone was finalized, the deputy commander of the Air Force personally rushed to the test flight site of the Sky High Aerospace Industry.
When he saw the gyrfalcon drone in the hangar, his eyes revealed an intoxicated look because it was indeed very beautiful. Its beautiful appearance was simply like a piece of art.
"Amazing, amazing!”
In less than a year, they had developed such an advanced stealth drone to fill the shortcomings of the ancient country's air force.
The military drones of the United States were very powerful. Not to mention the Predator drones, the ancient countries also had such drones. The real high-end ones were the RQ-4 Global Hawk and the X-47B ship-borne drones, which were also the main drones of the United States army.
The gyrfalcon drone designed by Qi Yin was a combination of the RQ-4 Global Hawk and the X-47B carrier drone. Not only did it have the ability to cruise around the world, but it also had extremely high stealth capabilities.
The deputy commander of the Air Force looked at Qi Yin, who was standing at the side with a smile, and said,"CEO Qi, can you give me a detailed introduction of this drone? I don't have any direct feelings about it from the information, so I'd like to hear it from you, the developer.”
Qi Yin nodded and said," Okay. The maximum take-off weight of this drone is 10 tons. The empty weight is only 3 tons because it uses a lot of composite materials. In order to increase its range and endurance, I designed a super large internal fuel tank for it. For this reason, it even occupied the capacity of the weapon compartment!”
"However, this also gives it a super endurance of more than 30,000 kilometers. I also considered the speed. Its maximum flight speed can reach 750 kilometers, and its economic cruising speed can reach about 600 kilometers. Its endurance is about 60 hours."
With Qi Yin's detailed introduction of this stealth drone, the shock on the face of the Air Force Deputy Commander became more and more intense. This also gave him a more intuitive feeling about the drone in front of him. Only by standing in front of it could he know how powerful it was.
