Five Corners Building.

In a conference room, the then Minister of Defense, several generals and a technical adviser were present, and at the moment they were all staring at the big screen in the conference room.

The picture on the display screen was changed after a period of time, and it was surprisingly a picture of an exercise in northwestern China transmitted by satellites.

Although the photos captured by the satellites are very clear, they are still a bit blurred in the face of high-speed moving targets, but the problem is not big. When the technicians sent the data to the Pentagon, they made certain repairs to these satellite photos.

The Minister of Defense at the time retracted his gaze, glanced at everyone, and then turned his gaze on the technician: "How many drones are there?"

"Mr. Minister, judging from the information in the photo, I am afraid there are no less than 5,000 drones."

"What?"

A general who was staring at the pictures on the screen constantly turned his head when he heard this, staring in shock and said, "Not less than 5,000?"

"God! This is crazy."

This number has caused a big shock in everyone's minds. The drone swarm technology, Lao Mei is naturally also intensifying research. This is the general trend in the future.

Lao Mei is deeply aware of this. As early as two years ago, he began to study the concept of drone "swarm" operations, including the "Kiba" project, "Elf" project, "loyal wingman" project, etc , And even thought of using drones to intercept nuclear bombs by suicide by using drone swarms.

In fact, intercepting nuclear bombs is not a whimsical operation. A large number of low-cost drone swarms form a super-large "intercepting network" in the air. When a nuclear warhead strikes, the drone swarm only needs to hover over. On the pre-warping route of the nuclear warhead, the kinetic energy generated by the collision will cause the electronic components inside the nuclear warhead to find damage, thereby preventing the explosion of the nuclear warhead.

But so far, the technology in North America can only control less than 200 UAVs for cluster flight. At one time, I thought it was far ahead in this field.

But sending this intelligence information today is no different to the old United States. It's a big blow. Has the other side of the ocean played thousands of scales?

This gap cannot be explained thoroughly by a single star.

In fact, the UAV "Swarm" combat command platform developed by the Côte d'Azur can control and coordinate more than that at the same time. It can coordinate more than 100,000 UAVs to organize a battle.

The previous exercises were just for cost control, and there was no need to engage in such a big battle. The exercises also had to be budgeted to achieve the purpose of testing.

Even so, Lao Mei has been taken aback now because she is aware of the gap between the two sides.

"Which institution has the technology to find out?"

"We are investigating, but from the current speculation, the probability of being the Blue Coast is extremely high, because the biggest difficulty of drone swarm technology lies in artificial intelligence and cloud computing and the distribution and processing of data. These technologies are the Blue Coast and Blue Coast. The strengths of Star Technology."

"Damn it, why is this damn company again!"

...

Three days later, the Wujiao Building published an article "National Defense Strategy Report" that was produced overnight.

The report stated that the goal of the Wujiao Building is to "compete, deter, and win" in an increasingly complex global security environment.At present, "long-term strategic competition" has once again surfaced. This is the core challenge facing the prosperity and security of magnesium countries. This long-term strategic competition mainly comes from across the ocean.

The report further described that North America’s military competitive advantage “has been eroded in every field of combat readiness, namely: sea, land, control, space and cyberspace, and is continuing to be eroded.”

The Wujiao Building attributed the cause to the "cap" measures adopted by Congress on defense spending in the past nine fiscal years, which reduced defense spending and long-term scarcity of funds, and caused more damage to its own combat capabilities than any "enemy". .

Well, by implication, the enemy is on Capitol Hill.

The report also stated that the Wujiao Building must modernize the "key combat capabilities" of the Magnesium Army in order to build a "more lethal, adaptable, and fast-innovating integrated armed force". It cannot be expected to use yesterday's weapons and equipment. Can win the conflict tomorrow.

To put it simply, this article report summarizes the key points: make money——!

This is not to spend money, when will we have to wait?

After the "National Defense Strategy Report" was released, a new piece of information was publicly released in the afternoon. This piece of information was surprisingly the drone swarm exercise on the other side of the ocean captured by satellites a few days ago.

The news of the global military sector was quickly swept by this news, and domestic media have also quoted reports. If this matter had not been made public, I would not have known that this happened.

The domestic military fans were overjoyed. They did not expect that their drone swarm technology had developed to this point. The year before last, they were still envious of the news that the United States could control more than one hundred drones in coordination. I have not yet made any breakthroughs in this field and feel anxious.

Unexpectedly, when I woke up and found that it was better than the old beauty, a large group of military fans began to analyze the photos released by the Wujiao Building.

...

Technology complex building.

"Master, I sent his latest work email report in Silicon Valley on the 3rd." Xiaona's voice responded in Luo Sheng's private office.

Luo Sheng directly opened the mail content list and was surprised: "The efficiency is very fast. The company has been established in less than four months and is capable of launching beta products. That's good. Xiaona, send the instructions to 3 No., the nominal cost of the drone should be increased to at least US$30,000, and the selling price should not be less than US$50,000."

Xiaona: "Understood!"

The so-called "No. 3" is the Bionic Man No. 3. This is a chess piece that Luo Sheng arranged to start a business in Silicon Valley. The identity there has been arranged. A Canadian-American scientist who graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, whose name is called Marcus Lyle.

In the past three or four months, Marcus Lyle arrived in Silicon Valley with the export version of the second-level drone technology developed by Luo Sheng and founded a start-up technology company named "Lyle Binary" .

The highest level is to penetrate into the enemy's interior. It would be interesting to let the Wujiao Building come to purchase military products under Lyle Binary Company.

However, Luo Sheng’s biggest purpose is not this, but to deliver the military technology he has developed to Horizon Security. If he can’t sell it clearly and cannot sell it, he can only follow the line of Marcus Lyle. It's time to gradually develop and expand the actual armed forces of Horizon Security.

But at the same time, it has to suppress Lyle Binary Company. To achieve a little bit of technology last time, the price is more expensive, so that it will not come to grab the sales of genuine products, otherwise Lao Mei will definitely use her own rogue to force big dogs to buy. The sales of genuine export products here will definitely be affected.

Layle Binary Company cannot be a sole proprietorship if it is to be perfectly integrated in North America. It must accept local capital investment. If it is not suppressed, the actual profits will have to be divided by Wall Street.
