Chapter 57: Missile drawing an apple? Wang Hao: Basic operation, don't be surprised!
The aftertaste of the laser interception test has not yet completely dissipated.
The testing field is still filled with an exclamation for extreme precision.
And when Wang Hao stands in front of his "Haoyu Precision Delivery System" launch console, the atmosphere changes suddenly.
Unlike Chen Guang's cold academic style.
Wang Hao's face is filled with irrepressible excitement, mixed with confidence and "waiting to see a good show."
He rubs his hands, his demeanor not like he is conducting a serious national-level test.
But more like a magician about to unveil a grand fireworks display.
"Third test, 'Haoyu Precision Delivery System', high-precision and new trajectory change capability verification."
Feng Yan's voice rings out, carrying a hint of imperceptible expectation.
He knew that this kid, Wang Hao, was brewing something big this time.
"Leaders," Wang Hao says, and that mix of fireworks and extreme confidence comes rushing out.
"Our stuff, the principle is not complicated, it's just giving a 'firecracker' a brain and a steering wheel!"
"After this period of pondering, especially with Zhao Gong helping us solidify the basic craftsmanship, today we will show you something new!"
He first loads a standard test missile.
The target is a drone target performing high-speed snake-like maneuvers eight hundred meters away.
"First shot, dynamic precision strike!" Wang Hao presses the launch button.
"Whoosh—boom!"
The missile leaves the rack at a speed far exceeding the past, and the trajectory is no longer a simple parabola.
But carries a kind of spiritual fine-tuning.
Like a falcon swooping, it draws a beautiful adaptive curve in the air.
Precisely blowing up the high-speed evading drone target in mid-air!
A low exclamation rises from the observation area.
This reaction speed and tracking precision have taken another step up since the "Dragon Chant" project was established.
"Second shot," Wang Hao changes to a warhead that looks more complex.
With a mysterious smile on his face, "Complex environment penetration strike! Target, signal source behind simulated reinforced fortifications!"
Launch!
This time, the missile first climbs at high speed.
Then dives rapidly at an almost vertical angle.
Just before approaching the target, the warhead part seems to have an imperceptible separation from the main body.
A small earth-penetrating combat component in the front is triggered first.
Opening a gap in the fortification, the main body follows, drills into the gap, and detonates internally!
"Boom!"
A dull explosion sound comes from inside the fortification model, while the external structure remains relatively intact.
This demonstrates the precision damage capability against reinforced point targets.
"Beautiful!" Senior Colonel Zhou cannot help but praise, "This penetration capability has miraculous effects against underground bunkers and solid fortifications!"
Wang Hao grins, encouraged.
But he knows the first two shots are just appetizers.
Demonstrating the solid improvement of basic performance under team collaboration.
The real finale is the "secret weapon" he and Zhao Gong have been secretly working on for more than half a month.
"Next is the last item of this demonstration."
Wang Hao's voice carries a hint of solemnity.
He picks up a missile body with a significantly different shape; it is longer and thinner than the previous missiles, and the structure seems more complex.
"This is a new idea verification missile that Zhao Gong and I have been pondering together."
"We temporarily call it... 'Firecracker ProMax'!"
As soon as this name comes out, even the observation area has a few suppressed laughs.
Zhao Gong is expressionless in the distance, but a hint of helplessness at "this brat" seems to flash in his eyes.
"The principle is not complicated, it's just realizing the idea of multi-layer propulsion and control using the 'Skyrocket Monkey' approach we are most familiar with!"
Wang Hao explains while loading the verification missile onto the special launcher:
"Let it play some fancier tricks in the atmosphere!"
Feng Yan's internal OS: 'Good grief, I knew it! This show-off really came up with new tricks!'
'Combining folk wisdom with top-tier processing, only he could think of it!'
"Target!" Wang Hao points to the sky, "No preset trajectory, fully autonomous direction change"
"Finally destroying the simulated cruise missile target flying at ultra-low altitude 3,500 meters away!"
As soon as this indicator comes out, even Li Yang and Chen Guang cast their attention.
This has already exceeded the scope of conventional short-range tactical missiles and touched the threshold of regional air defense.
Launch!
"Boom—!" The first-stage booster ignites.
The verification missile rises from the ground at a terrifying speed, piercing the sky.
A few seconds later, the first-stage fuel is exhausted, not falling off, but instantly isolated by power-off.
Almost at the same moment, with a muffled "bang," the second-stage booster ignites in the middle of the missile body!
Powerful thrust not only provides new acceleration.
More importantly, by controlling the vector nozzles on both sides.
The entire missile body makes an almost 90-degree right-angle turn in the air!
Like a nimble flying snake, it instantly changes its flight direction!
"Holy crap! Right-angle turn?! Aerial relay?!"
Wang Hao cannot help but shout.
Although he designed it, seeing it in reality is still incomparably shocking.
This is not over yet! Just as the second-stage propulsion is about to end.
The verification missile seems to have an extremely brief hover adjustment in the air.
Then, the third "bang"!
The third stage, also the smallest tail booster, ignites!
This time, the thrust it provides is not large, but extremely precise.
Pushing the missile body to complete a subtle attitude adjustment, like a cobra raising its head.
Locking onto the cruise missile target that is flying at ultra-low altitude in the distance, trying to use terrain to evade!
In the final stage, the missile body has no tail flame, obviously entering glide + terminal guidance mode.
With extremely high precision, like a shooting star chasing the moon, it hits the tiny target head-on!
"Boom!!!"
A huge fireball explodes in the distant sky!
Silence! Dead silence!
The entire testing field is left with only the sound of the wind blowing.
Everyone is stunned by this incredible flight trajectory and the final result.
This is not the flexible execution of a preset program, this is clearly an aerial hunt with primary "intelligence" and "decision-making ability"!
"Multi... multi-stage relay trajectory change... tactical-level interception within the atmosphere..."
Senior Colonel Zhou mutters to himself, suddenly standing up.
Looking at Wang Hao as if looking at a rare treasure:
"Young man! This is no longer a 'firecracker'!"
"You have given us a brand new, low-cost regional air defense idea!"
"The value of this idea is immeasurable!"
Wang Hao is truly floating now, hands on his hips, high-spirited:
"The leader is wise! We were just pondering, thinking about how to make our stuff a bit more 'alive' in the sky!"
"But Zhao Gong said, this is just a verification missile, there is still a long way to go before it becomes a truly stable and reliable weapon."
"Especially the ignition control and attitude stability between stages, it took a hell of a lot of effort!"
He points out the credit and difficulties at the right time.
Showing breakthroughs while also reflecting a clear understanding.
Zhao Gong's voice also comes through the communicator at the right time, still flat, but with great weight:
"The idea is feasible. Craftsmanship is the key. Solve the synchronization separation and anti-overload problems, and it can be done."
Feng Yan looks at this scene, his heart suddenly enlightened.
He understands the deeper meaning of this demonstration.
Wang Hao used this whimsical yet solidly grounded "Firecracker ProMax."
Not only demonstrated a new technology.
But also showed all observers the team's infinite imagination and the terrifying ability to turn imagination into reality.
This is the most hardcore bargaining chip to win more support.
Then, his gaze turns to the next preparation area.
There, "Xiao Bai" and its "Insect Reconnaissance Squad" partners are already ready.
He knows that when these "little guys" show their pervasive value.
The future of "Dragon Chant" will have no boundaries. ===== CHAPTER 58 =====
