    As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked!

    ? 68 US dollars, which is almost half of the price quoted by the other three companies. What¡¯s even more incredible is that the maintenance cost is only a mere US$3,000 for a single flight. Oh my God, this is still an airplane?

    Hovinski, who had been calm from the beginning to now, had a rare look of disbelief on his face and asked the first question of the whole meeting: "Mr. Lister, are you sure about the number you gave?"

    "Yes, Mr. Howinski, the unit price of our aircraft is US$680,000, and the cost of a single flight is controlled at US$3,000, or even less."

    "Impossible!" As soon as Lister finished his answer, the strong Norton refuted: "The cost of a single flight is 3,000 US dollars, and the cost of oil and pilots is more than 3,000 US dollars. Doesn't your aircraft need ground maintenance? It is necessary.  Parts replacement? So Lister, you are lying and you are competing maliciously."

    Although Norton's words were strong, they resonated with the people present, because in their impression, the cost of a single flight of 3,000 US dollars was simply ridiculous. Even the cheapest small aircraft costs about 5,000 US dollars, unless it is a glider, which is cheap.  , but how could the Ministry of Justice use a glider as a tool to combat smuggling and smuggling?

    So all eyes were focused on Liszt, especially the two congressmen directly in front, whose expressions were already bad.

    Lister did not panic. Instead, he looked at the angry Norton. He smiled gently and asked, "I would like to ask Mr. Norton, how much oil do you think an 18-kilowatt two-cylinder small gasoline engine needs?"

    Norton was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Before he could react, Mary Johnson said in surprise: "An 18-kilowatt two-cylinder small gasoline engine. Oh, my God, how did you get people into the sky?"

    "No, they didn't fly people into the sky, because they didn't use people to fly into the sky at all, because they were making unmanned aerial vehicles!" Levenst was still quick-thinking and reacted immediately.

    However, the last unmanned aircraft immediately surprised everyone in the venue. The difference is that this time the reaction was a little different from the previous one. There was a bit of surprise in it. The unmanned aircraft and the manned aircraft were in the same place.  Bidding for the Ministry of Justice's purchase order, once the matter was confirmed, they seemed to have witnessed history.

    So the invited media reporters turned their cameras on Liszt for the first time.

    Liszt nodded as expected: "Yes, Livingster is right. The Discovery-1 aircraft we are bidding for is an unmanned aircraft. It is the latest technological frontier that our H Airlines has built over the past eight years.  If I could describe the product in one sentence, my evaluation would be ¨C transcending the times!¡±

    "Then can you introduce the specific performance of the next discovery-Type 1 UAV?" The question was asked by a bold reporter in the back row.

    Lister did not answer, but looked ahead at Howinski and a group of congressmen and officials from the Ministry of Justice. A group of big guys obviously wanted to hear what this new gadget was like, so they signaled to Howinski that it was okay.

    After getting permission, Lister went to the center of the venue and unfolded a prepared enlarged photo of the Discovery-1 drone. The staff on one side immediately took out an easel and took out the Discovery-1 drone in a tacit understanding.  The enlarged photo of the drone is fixed and placed in a position where people on both sides can see it.

    Soon a strange-looking drone appeared in front of everyone in the venue. The reporters in the back row immediately raised their cameras, and the flashing sound of the shutter immediately covered the entire venue.

    Howinski had to take out his drum and bang it hard several times before the venue returned to silence. Then Liszt pointed to the enlarged drone photo and said: "What we discovered  - Type 1 UAV is 4 meters long, has a wingspan of 5.6 meters and a height of 1.1 meters. It uses an 18-kilowatt twin-cylinder gasoline engine, has a maximum take-off weight of 224 kilograms, a practical ceiling of 8,000 meters, a top speed of 260 kilometers per hour, and a speed of 120 kilometers per hour.  Kilometer-hour cruising, the radius can reach 246 kilometers, and the endurance time is 4 to 6 hours"

    Lister paused and was about to continue introducing the basic performance of the drone. However, a wrinkled member of Congress on the rostrum obviously lost his patience and interrupted Lister's speech: "Wait a minute, Mr. Lister."  What we want is a patrol aircraft to combat smuggling and smuggling. We don¡¯t care about the various data of your drone. We just want to know whether it can be qualified for the tasks of the Ministry of Justice."

    "Yes, sir, if you don't tell me, I will introduce its superior performance below. Look here" Liszt responded with a smile, then pointed to a small round bag under the belly of the machine: "Here is my  The core of the Discovery-1 UAV's target discovery is the anasq-170 target acquisition system and anaaq-11 night vision system under the nose of the 'Apache' armed helicopter that just entered the army's service last year.

    Of course, ours cannot be as advanced as what the military uses, because theirs is too heavy.Our discovery -1 cannot be carried at all, so we can only use its simplified version of the anasq-180 target acquisition system and the anaaq-15 night vision system. The general structure is the same as the system on the Apache, inheriting the laser ranging and  Calibration devices, forward-looking infrared systems, daytime television cameras and laser calibration devices, as well as state-of-the-art night imaging equipment"

    What did everyone at the scene hear?  The UAV of h airline uses the same photoelectric detection system used on the ah-64 "Apache" armed helicopter, which is the latest in service of the US military. Everyone subconsciously thinks, well~~ this thing is reliable, there is no other way, maybe they  I don¡¯t know about the Discovery-1 drone, but I have to know about the ¡°Apache¡±.

    For the sake of the morale of the domestic people, the U.S. military did a lot of propaganda before and after the "Apache" was put into service, about the world's most powerful armed helicopter, the terminator of the Soviet tank flood, etc. The explosive propaganda can be said to have turned the ears of the American people into deafness.  Even people who have been paying attention to armaments for a long time can almost recite the performance of the "Apache".

    Because of this, when they heard that H Airlines used similar technology to the "Apache", they felt that the performance of this drone should be good.

    If the detection equipment of Discovery-1 drone makes people feel reliable, then the communication and navigation introduced by Lister will make everyone in the venue feel even more stable.

    ??Tdma, which has the same technology as the military No. 11 data link, is responsible for command transmission; another cdma communication technology is responsible for image transmission. At the same time, it is also equipped with the "meridian" satellite positioning system currently used by the US military, as well as other auxiliary navigation systems.

    This allows the entire Discovery-1 UAV to be controlled and flown using a control vehicle modified from a truck, and to obtain detection photos and even images of the front in real time.

    After talking about its performance, Liszt stood up with a smile and concluded: "What's more important is our discovery - No. 1 is maneuverable and flexible, and does not require an airport, a stretch of road, a piece of pasture, or even a flat stretch of gravel ground.  It can all take off. If it doesn't work, just weld a few meters of steel pipe to a guide rail, because we can also use rockets to boost it.

    Maybe you don¡¯t believe it, no problem. If you are interested, after the hearing is over, I will take you to Pennsylvania, which is adjacent to Washington. It only takes about forty minutes. You also know that Washington is prohibited from flying, so I  Had to arrange the flight display somewhere.  "
