Chapter 399 Preparing to Design AI
"The curvature and arrangement of the lens must be precisely calculated," Li Yang whispered, his movements still skillful and steady. He knew that the success of this step directly determined the impact of the laser weapon.
After several hours of intense work, the prototype of the laser weapon was finally assembled. Li Yang slowly breathed a sigh of relief, fixed the laser on the experimental table, adjusted the angle of the optical cavity and the focusing system, then turned on the power and pressed the start button with his finger.
A beam of white laser light instantly shot out from the laser, cutting through the air in the laboratory and hitting the metal target a few meters away. With a sharp metal cutting sound, the metal surface on the target was instantly melted by the laser beam, forming a deep dent.
Li Yang stared at the marks on the target, with a glimmer of satisfaction in his eyes. He walked to the target and carefully observed the impact of the laser beam. The metal surface on the target was smooth and uniform, showing an extremely high laser energy density.
"The strike effect is very ideal." Li Yang whispered to himself, his eyes flashing with confidence and joy. He knew that this directed energy weapon would exert unparalleled power on the battlefield in the future.
However, Li Yang is very clear that the manufacture of laser weapons does not just stop at the prototype stage. In order for this weapon system to operate stably in actual combat, the problems of heat dissipation and energy supply need to be solved.
Lasers generate a lot of heat when firing. If the heat cannot be effectively dissipated, the performance of the laser will be greatly reduced, and the system may even be damaged. Li Yang decided to design an independent liquid cooling system for laser weapons. This system can quickly remove the heat generated by the laser through the circulation of coolant, thereby maintaining the stability of the system.
He marked the pipeline layout of the liquid cooling system and the flow rate parameters of the coolant in detail on the design drawings. The direction of each pipeline, the viscosity of the coolant, and even the power of the pump were all repeatedly considered and calculated by him. Li Yang's fingers slid on the paper, as if these lines and formulas were the thread of fate he had woven for the fighter.
"In this way, the stability of the laser should be greatly improved." Li Yang murmured to himself, with a satisfied smile on his face.
Next is the energy supply problem. Laser weapons consume a lot of energy. How to provide enough energy in the limited space of the fighter is another big challenge facing Li Yang. He decided to design a small energy reactor based on nuclear fusion technology for laser weapons. This reactor can release extremely high energy in a short period of time, which is enough to support the continuous firing of laser weapons.
Li Yang marked the reactor structure and power parameters in detail on the design drawings. He decided to use a new type of magnetic confinement device to confine the high-temperature plasma in the center of the reactor through a strong magnetic field to prevent it from contacting the inner wall of the reactor, thereby achieving a stable nuclear fusion reaction.
In order to improve the safety of the reactor, Li Yang also designed an automatic fault detection and emergency shutdown device. This device can monitor the operating status of the reactor in real time. Once an abnormality is detected, the system will immediately initiate an emergency shutdown procedure to ensure the safety of the fighter and the pilot.
Li Yang repeatedly pondered over every detail of the reactor on the blueprint. The entire design process was complex and challenging. His fingers moved quickly on the blueprint, with wisdom gleaming in his eyes.
"The safety of the reactor must be ensured." Li Yang said in a low voice, with a hint of determination in his eyes.
After weeks of intense work, the energy supply system for the laser weapon was finally completed. Li Yang connected the reactor to the laser and carefully checked every connection point to ensure that all connections were firm and reliable.
"Now, all the preparations have been completed." Li Yang stood in front of the experimental table, his eyes flashing with anticipation and nervousness. He knew that the next step would be the final test of this laser weapon system.
He took a deep breath and gently pressed the start button. As the reactor started, a powerful energy instantly poured into the laser, and the laser beam shot out from the transmitter again, hitting the metal target in the distance.
The metal surface on the target was instantly penetrated by the laser beam, leaving a deep cutting mark on the metal surface. Li Yang stared at the data on the screen, and his fingers quickly operated the control panel to test the power output and energy consumption of the laser.
"The energy output is stable, and the laser beam strike effect is very ideal." Li Yang whispered, his eyes flashing with excitement. He knew that this laser weapon system had achieved the expected design goals.
However, Li Yang was not satisfied with this. He knew that the manufacture of laser weapons was not just at the prototype stage. In order for this weapon system to operate stably in actual combat, more testing and optimization were needed.
He decided to further optimize the aiming system of the laser weapon. Li Yang realized that when the fighter was flying at high speed, the aiming accuracy of the laser beam might be affected by airflow and flight attitude. In order to ensure the accuracy of the laser beam, he designed an automatic aiming system based on inertial navigation.
This system can monitor the fighter's flight attitude and speed in real time through the fighter's inertial navigation device, and automatically adjust the aiming angle of the laser beam, thereby ensuring that the laser weapon can maintain extremely high strike accuracy in any flight state.
Li Yang marked the positions and connections of the components of the automatic aiming system in detail on the design drawing. His fingers moved quickly on the drawing, with wisdom gleaming in his eyes.
After the design of the aiming system was completed, Li Yang began to install it into the laser weapon system. The entire installation process requires extremely high precision, and any slight error may cause the system to fail.
Li Yang personally supervised every step of the installation to ensure that all components were precisely aligned. His fingers moved quickly on the control panel, adjusting the parameters and calibration data of the aiming system.
After several hours of intense work, the aiming system was finally installed. Li Yang fixed the laser weapon system on the experimental table, turned on the power, and began to conduct a comprehensive test on it.
The laser beam shot out from the launcher again, hitting the metal target in the distance. Li Yang stared at the data on the screen, his fingers quickly operating the control panel to adjust the aiming angle and strike accuracy of the laser beam.
"The aiming system is very accurate, and the laser beam has an ideal striking effect." Li Yang whispered, his eyes flashing with confidence and joy. He knew that this laser weapon system had achieved the expected design goals and would be able to exert unparalleled power on future battlefields.
However, Li Yang is very clear that the manufacture of laser weapons does not just stop at the prototype stage. In order for this weapon system to operate stably in actual combat, more testing and optimization are needed.
He decided to further improve the protection system of laser weapons. When laser weapons are fired, they will release a lot of heat and strong electromagnetic radiation, which may interfere with and damage other systems of the fighter.
To prevent this from happening, Li Yang designed a dual protection system based on electromagnetic shielding and thermal isolation. This system can effectively shield the electromagnetic radiation generated by laser weapons, and at the same time, through a layer of special thermal insulation material, isolate the heat generated by the laser inside the system to prevent it from spreading to other parts of the fighter.
Li Yang marked the positions and connections of the components of the protection system in detail on the design drawing. His fingers moved quickly on the drawing, with wisdom gleaming in his eyes.
After the design of the protection system was completed, Li Yang began to install it into the laser weapon system. The entire installation process requires extremely high precision, and any slight error may cause the system to fail.

Li Yang stood in the center of the laboratory, the light reflecting a cold luster on his glasses.
In front of him was a brand new design drawing, more complicated than any previous plan.
With the gradual improvement of weapon systems and flight control systems, intelligent combat systems will become the focus of the next stage.
This will be a brand new challenge because it is not just a hardware improvement, but also a revolution in the future warfare mode - AI intelligent combat system.
Li Yang's fingers slid gently across the drawing, drawing lines and modules.
Intelligent combat system is not a simple concept. It is a huge project that requires the integration of multiple technologies such as flight control, weapon systems, navigation systems, and even battlefield situation awareness.
Li Yang's goal is to enable this aerospace fighter to have autonomous analysis and decision-making capabilities, so that it can independently perform tasks in a complex battlefield environment.
He stood up and walked towards a computer in the center of the laboratory. This computer was reverse-engineered from his memories of the future and had computing power equivalent to the highest level of the original era.
Li Yang's fingertips tapped quickly on the keyboard, and complex program codes kept jumping on the screen.
In order to make the intelligent combat system truly operate, we first need a powerful computing core, and this core must have sufficient computing and judgment capabilities.
Li Yang decided to start development from the most basic AI intelligence.
In his mind, he recalled all the knowledge about artificial intelligence from his previous life - from Turing's theory to the future application of quantum computing.
Although computer technology is still at a relatively early stage in this era, he believes that with his own abilities, he can develop a set of basic AI intelligence under the existing technical conditions.
Li Yang pulled out a thick book from the bookshelf, with "Basics of Computer Science" written on the cover.
Although these theories are still in their preliminary stages, for Li Yang, this knowledge is enough for him to develop a basic AI system based on the technological background of this era.
