Super military empire

"You never thought, if this project continues, how would you explain to Lao Qian?" Long Yaohua asked Liu Yijiu.

Liu Yijiu shook his head, did not answer, but grinned at Long Yaohua.

There is no need to explain to Qian.

As long as they can produce results, they know that Liu Yijiu will think of a way and will not return it. Most of them are basic research talents.

"Since you have an idea, let's not talk about it for the time being. Regarding the project and the research and development of related technologies for the strategic missile defense system, I think you should first communicate with the old money, and then discuss with the National Defense Science and Technology Commission." Long Yao Hua did not ask Liu Yijiu about how to explain to Qian Lao. Instead, he suggested that he discuss with Qian Lao and other experts first, and communicate with the National Defense Science, Technology and Industry Commission to further persuade the Military Commission.

Without a nod from the Military Commission, it would be impossible to study such a huge strategic system.

This is a huge project as a whole.

It involves all aspects, and even various space technologies.

The benefits are obvious, and the difficulties are also very obvious.

"That's what I planned." Liu Yijiu told Long Yaohua.

A bunch of big men were fooled by him to work hard towards the Beidou system research, and the aerospace industry is even working hard to develop space technology.All of this has become different from the original. Under the promotion of Liu Yijiu, and the huge amount of funds obtained from the sale of the huge number of Dongfeng-3 missiles to Saudi Arabia and Iran, all kinds of things began to move quickly. development of.

How to choose the most favorable project development in such a situation must be considered.

When I went to the capital with Long Yaohua, I didn't find the boss of the Science and Technology Commission for National Defense first, but went directly to Qian Xuesen.

Qian Lao didn't seem to be surprised by Liu Yijiu's arrival.

"Is your renovation project completed? People don't plan to pay it back, right?" Qian always said calmly.

Liu Yijiu's mouth twitched, "Daddy Qian, I didn't say that I don't plan to return. Although we have reached our improvement goal, we found that there is still a lot to improve... …"

Immediately, Liu Yijiu introduced the various shortcomings found during the test firing of the 8208 Project.

Qian is always a missile expert and the father of missiles in the Republic. Naturally, he can understand the various technical issues that Liu Yijiu said.

However, I was a little surprised to hear that Liu Yijiu and the others are now studying the project of intercepting missiles, and I did not expect that what Liu Yijiu wants to establish is not just to intercept these small short-range tactical missiles. The ultimate goal is the long-range intercontinental strategic missile!

"It involves a very large system engineering, and the technical difficulty is not that big!" Qian Lao reminded Liu Yijiu, "Even a global satellite system, we will need more than ten years to achieve it. Isn't it a bit out of date for you to implement such a system?

"We are not setting up this project now. My idea is that we can first list the various technical systems and projects required for this project separately, and then select the projects with high investment and high importance for priority development. No. Engaged in this project, but we have to develop in the direction of this project..."

Liu Yijiu has always felt this way.

Even the Beidou system is like this.

Although no project has been established, related projects, such as the most important launch vehicle, satellites with more advanced performance, remote sensing technology, satellite communication technology, etc., are currently the focus of development.

Regarding Liu Yijiu’s idea, Qian Lao could not raise any objections. Instead, he gathered some other old guys together, and everyone sat together for discussion. Even Qi Hao and others from the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense were invited. Come to discuss the feasibility of this project.

"I think that the establishment of a missile defense system is very technically difficult at present, and it is not easy for us to solve. But I think that since the Ninth Academy is already engaged in it, there is no need to stop. Now Our technology must continue to promote development, so as to ensure the rapid development of the national defense industry without large-scale renewal of equipment and preparations for layoffs under the current circumstances." When I heard that such a system should be established, research Qi Hao was the first to support this technology.

Others are not as optimistic as him.

China's current foundation is too poor and its foundation is too weak, and there are too many technological projects that need to be studied.

Civilian technology can be imported from abroad, but military technology is simply impossible.

Even though the relationship between the United States and China is currently in the honeymoon period, the United States does not give China what technology China needs. The export of civilian technology to China is relatively backward. Military technology is more strictly controlled!The "Batumi Embargo" is not a blank paper.

"The difficulty here will be greater than we imagined. Apart from anything else, it is only an interception system. Long-distance detection radar is a huge problem. Even if there is a solution, it will be difficult for incoming missiles after discovery. Defence involves trajectory calculation and target allocation of the surrounding defense system. We already have our rapid response capabilities..." This system is not as simple as imagined.

After Liu Yijiu said it, Qian Lao clearly realized the problem inside.

He also seriously considered the situation inside, as if not as optimistic as expected.

"This involves too much. Even if we can't make breakthroughs in long-range large-scale radar technology, as long as our satellite system is established, these high-speed moving targets can be discovered by using remote sensing or detection technology... In addition, as for the reaction, I I feel that we still have to make efforts in the direction of automatic control technology. If our system can be found at the beginning, then the information processing center will calculate the launch orbit according to the target parameters, and at the same time authorize the defense system deployed around it to automatically control according to the highest priority level The anti-missile missiles we deployed are launched and intercepted..."

As a top expert in automation control and automatic detection in aviation technology, Yang Jiachi feels that this aspect has a lot to do with the Beidou system they are currently working on.

Liu Yijiu, a young man, is now more and more admiring him.

It can now be fully understood that Liu Yijiu's Beidou satellite positioning system and surveillance system started by them were just for this purpose.

The satellite positioning system is here, but it belongs to a ring!

Replaced by them, they will put forward these huge projects in one go at the beginning, and eventually they will either be shelved or progress slowly because of the difficulty.

"Indeed, the Beidou system, we expect not only a satellite positioning system, but also a dual-use system for communications, detection and other functions. In this way, costs can be effectively reduced in the future..." Liu Yijiu grinned and said, "Defense missiles, the new types of missiles that need to be equipped on our guided missile battleships, can be competent once they are successfully developed. This does require automatic control and more advanced computers..."

Computer technology is the future direction of development.

The whole world has seen this, and the Republic is also the same. There is not much research in the civilian field, but in the military field and the research and development of supercomputers, it is still because of the emergence of Liu Yijiu that the Republic’s own core processor and chip technology have With the foundation, the development will be so fast.

This is much better than Liu Yijiu's original world.

"By the way, Xiao Liu, haven't your computer technology made a breakthrough development? The hardware system is a little bit unable to keep up, and the software is the same. The Chinese instruction set is developed by you, the Oracle operating system programming software and other It comes from your Ninth Institute. You can’t make breakthroughs in this core technology, and our other developments cannot go on..." As the person in charge of the country’s first artificial satellite, Sun Jiadong, the chief engineer of the Republic’s future lunar exploration, naturally It is to understand the role of computers for these related technologies that they involve.

The performance of the processor is not good, and the basic system of the computer is not good enough, so naturally it will not be able to show how powerful it is.

Once satellite equipment is in the sky, it will naturally be controlled by computers.

Even missiles are like this.

Liu Yijiu is also very troublesome about this issue. "Under the current circumstances, computer technology is indeed a very big weakness for us. The performance of our missiles and chip control is not as ideal as we imagined. Even our CNC machine tools The research and development of the company is also limited by the processor...Our next step is mainly in this aspect."

Computer technology, it's impossible for Director Liu to use gold fingers.

In many cases, he has no way to bypass the foundation, lack of people, lack of equipment, lack of production capacity, etc...

He can design the most complex chips, but he needs to be able to produce these chips.

Now there is no way to make a processor like the 386, so what can we do?

"There is another question. The Chinese instruction set processor and your Windows operating system seem to be incompatible with various foreign hardware..." Li Jie, director of the Institute of Computer Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, frowned and asked Liu Yi nine.

If their processors and operating systems can be universal and compatible with American hardware, this will be very good for the development and even prospects of Chinese computers.

In this respect, although they have more talents available than Liu Yijiu's Ninth Academy, they have not made much progress in this regard.

Moreover, the Ninth Academy has launched a Windows operating system that matches its own computer, and also equipped the computer with accessories such as a mouse and keyboard for input.This allows the computer to become more powerful and easier to operate.

The only problem is incompatibility, and there is no way to use them with their technical reserves and foreign technologies.

When Qi Hao heard this, he immediately retorted, "This is our country's military technology, why should it be used in foreign countries? Isn't this more able to ensure the security of our military systems and computer networks?"

Many units in the Ninth Academy are now equipped with computers for auxiliary research.

The shortage of manpower makes them have to use this method to improve efficiency.

The big guys above have also seen this effect and are ready to promote it in the national scientific research system, at least in the military field.

However, the Ninth Institute has not yet solved the key process issues in the mass production of core processors.

Moreover, as other departments join in the research, the processors that have not solved the process problem can no longer keep up with the use requirements, and can only solve the previous generation of manufacturing processes while developing a new generation of processors.

"Director Qi is right. At this time, why should we think about being compatible with foreign companies? In other fields, we have no advantage. Therefore, we strive to catch up and measure us by foreign technical standards. However, in terms of computers, we have an advantage, and we are catching up with foreign countries. Why should we consider compatible with them instead of letting them consider compatible with ours?" Liu Yijiu said unceremoniously.

As the director of China's most important computer research institute, if this is the idea, the entire industry in the Republic will eventually move closer to foreign standards.

First-rate companies do standards, second-rate companies do technology, and third-rate companies do products.

Whoever masters the standards can occupy the entire market.

Moreover, once the system is compatible, it is easy for hackers to attack through the network.

Therefore, Liu Yijiu never allowed the computer research department of the Ninth Academy to disclose the source code of the Windows operating system to any department.

What Li Jie said was to gradually lead the topic in that direction, and then let Liu Yijiu publish the source code. They could study a new generation of systems suitable for their own use based on the source code of the Ninth Academy.

"Anyway, and no matter how other units develop, we will not adopt the kind of foreign programming method, the Chinese instruction set, or the source program we compiled in Oracle, radicals, etc., neither Will give up and will not change!" Liu Yijiu directly blocked Li Jie's words.

"Let's talk about the missile defense system, so why are you talking about this?" Qian Xuesen hurriedly became a peacemaker, worried that Liu Yijiu would quarrel with Li Jie.

Liu Yijiu is speechless, isn't this a very key core project in the entire missile defense system!

If the computer technology problems are not solved, other developments will not rise quickly.

The topic of everyone has returned to the construction of the missile defense system. This time it is mainly to list the key technical projects.

Liu Yijiu is also very supportive of this point. As long as the Chinese Academy of Sciences takes the lead and presides over, things are much easier to resolve than the Ninth Academy.

When the various key projects and key technologies were listed, the talents found that this system is huge, almost involving all the high-precision and cutting-edge technology fields of the entire country, and more basic projects...
