Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

There was nothing to say all night, and when Zhou Yang got up from the kang the next day with dark circles under his eyes, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.

Apparently, seeing that he stayed up late last night, Li Youwei couldn't bear to wake him up.

I thought of the meeting I had agreed with Guo Yamin and Zheng Aiguo yesterday.

Zhou Yang immediately got up from the kang, and after a brief wash, he greeted Li Youwei, and hurried to the research institute with Liu Yunlong.

At the research institute, Guo Yamin and others had been waiting for Zhou Yang in the conference room early, but they had drunk several cups of tea, but still did not see him.

At the beginning, the big guys were still chatting casually, but after an hour and a half passed, everyone couldn't hold back anymore.

"Old Guo, do you think the director forgot about the meeting? Should we send someone to call him?"

"Old Guo, is the director going to work on the stall in the village again, should we continue to wait?"

"Waiting is definitely necessary, but we can't just wait like this, why don't we discuss it ourselves first..."

Hearing everyone expressing their opinions one by one, Guo Yamin knocked on the table in front of him and said, "Don't make any noise, Comrade Zhou Yang can't forget such an important matter!"

"When we went to find him last night, he said that there are some things that need to be improved. I think it's probably because he stayed up late and got up late. Let's wait!"

After all, it has been almost a year since he partnered with Zhou Yang on the project. Guo Yamin still knows Zhou Yang quite well, knowing that he is not the kind of unreliable person.

Sure enough, not long after he finished speaking, there were hurried footsteps outside.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yang was seen walking in from the outside carrying a large briefcase.

After arriving at his position as director, Zhou Yang immediately apologized and said, "Sorry for getting up late and keeping everyone waiting for so long!"

Hearing his apology, everyone in the conference room couldn't help laughing, and Mr. Guo really guessed it right.

At the same time, everyone saw that his eye circles were dark and bloodshot, obviously he had stayed up late last night.

"If you stay up too late, you can ask Xiao Liu to tell us that we can postpone the meeting until the afternoon. You are the biggest treasure of our institute, so you have to pay attention to your health!" Guo Yamin said.

Hearing this, everyone laughed again.

Although it was a joke, everyone knew what Mr. Guo said was true.

"It's okay, this matter has been delayed for a few days, it's better to settle it sooner!"

Then Zhou Yang changed his voice and said again: "Then let's start!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately entered the working state, all sat upright, and all eyes focused on Zhou Yang.

"The higher authorities ordered us to develop early warning aircraft radar. This is not only a new task for us, but also a new challenge!"

Then Zhou Yang continued: "I am a person who strives for perfection. If we don't do it, we must reach the world's advanced level. Therefore, before formally discussing the project, we people must first reach a consensus in thought, that is We want to build the most advanced early warning aircraft in the world, do you agree with me when I say this?"

As soon as the voice fell, Yan Haisheng frowned and said: "Director, we naturally hope that our research results will be as advanced as possible, but before that, we must base ourselves on reality and not simply pursue advanced levels. while ignoring other circumstances!"

However, before Zhou Yang could speak, Guo Yamin said directly: "Comrade Haisheng, you don't need to tell the director about these things, he knows better than us!"

Zheng Aiguo also echoed and said: "I think Comrade Zhou Yang is right. After working hard for a long time, it will be meaningless if what you come up with is something that is about to be eliminated."

"Yes, the research time of early warning aircraft abroad is not too long. Although there is a gap between us and foreign countries, the gap is limited!" Chen Shanhe said.

"That's right, in terms of air force equipment, the gap between early warning aircraft is the smallest..."

.......

Seeing that most people agreed with his idea, Zhou Yang said again: "Okay, we have unified our thinking, then let's discuss in detail how to design our early warning aircraft radar! Before that, I would like to ask all of you here. How much do you know about AWACS?"

As soon as the voice fell, Yan Haisheng said again: "I was previously involved in the research and development of early warning aircraft, so let me answer this question!"

"Please!"

Yan Haisheng coughed lightly, and then said: "As we all know, the world's first early warning aircraft was built by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1944. Its principle is to install a surveillance radar on the aircraft to detect incoming low-altitude aircraft and This is the later "TBM-3W" early warning aircraft."

"The aircraft can detect low-altitude aircraft flying at a distance of more than 100 kilometers and Japanese warships at a distance of about 300 kilometers. Moreover, there was only one pilot and one radar operator on the early warning aircraft at that time, and the working method was relatively simple. It is the radar operator who transmits the detected target signal together with the radar antenna pointing information to the warship through the ultra-short wave radio station, providing a basis for the commander on the ship to command operations."

"In a sense, this generation of early warning aircraft is almost equivalent to "radar + carrier aircraft". Its main representative models include the US Navy's "TBM-3W", E-1B, etc., which mainly solve the problem of radar installation and detection. Low-altitude targets and other issues.”

"At this stage, the radar detection is still manual reading, and the information is reported to the command organization through voice and Morse code. Moreover, the carrier platform is generally small, and the radar detection distance is not far; there are not many people working with the early warning aircraft , does not have control and guidance capabilities. The focus of its development is to enhance the downward-looking ability of early warning radars and continuously improve radar performance."

Immediately afterwards, Yan Haisheng continued: "However, after more than 30 years of development, the early warning aircraft has also developed greatly. The current early warning aircraft is already moving towards the second generation, and its functions have been greatly expanded. The main functions can be summarized as "early warning and reconnaissance + control and guidance." "."

"At this stage, the radar look-down performance of the early warning aircraft has been relatively perfect, and electronic/communication reconnaissance equipment, friend-or-foe identification equipment, etc. have been installed, a certain number of short-wave and ultra-short-frequency radio stations have been installed, and advanced data links have been installed to distribute radar information. Conduct control guidance and so on."

After listening to Yan Haisheng's answer, Zhou Yang nodded in satisfaction. Although what Yan Haisheng said was simple, he basically explained the development history and technical characteristics of the early warning aircraft.

After signaling him to sit down, Zhou Yang said again: "Let me summarize what Professor Yan said. Compared with the first generation of early warning aircraft, the current early warning aircraft has undergone a relatively large role change in combat use and improvement in technical capabilities."

"In terms of combat roles, we have changed from "early warning and reconnaissance" to "early warning and reconnaissance + control and guidance"; in terms of technical capabilities, we have developed from a simple combination of early surveillance radars and carrier aircraft to comprehensive functions. So what we have to study is not just a The radar system is an organic combination of a mission electronic system integrating radar, friend-or-foe identification, electronic reconnaissance, communication, command and control, and a carrier aircraft."

Hearing Zhou Yang's description, not only Guo Yamin and others were dumbfounded, but even Yan Haisheng was stunned.

He is aware of the individual things that Zhou Yang said, but it is definitely more complicated than simply studying a single radar to include them together.

Yan Haisheng frowned and said: "Director, we are only engaged in radar, and we want to include all communication, command and electronic research at once, isn't it a bit..."

Zhou Yang didn't answer his words, but directly opened his briefcase and took out two thick stacks of documents.

"This is the research plan I came up with during this time, and there are two research directions in total!"

As soon as this remark came out, the entire meeting room was instantly blown up.

Dude, this is really a blockbuster.

For new equipment such as early warning aircraft, most of the people here don't even have a research idea. Zhou Yang has already come up with a detailed research plan, and there are only two of them.

Is this the gap between genius and talent?

Afterwards, with everyone stunned, Zhou Yang explained his two research plans in detail!
