What does it mean to get a perfect score on the college entrance exam but then go missing?

The three-mode rotary detonation combined cycle engine is an integrated power system combining turbocharger, subsonic rotary detonation ramjet, and supersonic rotary detonation.

It deeply couples a traditional turbine with an annular rotating detonation combustion chamber, and relies on adjustable air intake, split valve, and variable geometry nozzle to switch between three working modes, covering the entire atmospheric range from 0 speed ground takeoff to Mach 6+ hypersonic speed and 0 to 35 km. It is designed specifically for horizontal takeoff and landing aerospace fighters and hypersonic reconnaissance aircraft.

It can effectively solve the problem of narrow speed envelope of a single engine.

This argument was first published by Zhao Changhong in a paper.

And in the future, it became the guiding theory for rotary detonation engines.

Theory is one thing, theory is another.

No one, including Zhao Changhong, has ever realized this theory.

And now!

The data reported by Bai Huiyan reached everyone's ears!

If the capabilities of this engine cannot be determined by the naked eye alone, then its three-mode speed envelope is the decisive factor!

Turbine knock mode, Mach 1.8!

Sub-fuel rotary detonation stamping mode, Mach 3.5!

Supercharged rotating detonation mode, Mach 4.8, with the ultimate speed reaching Mach 6!

This is a textbook example of the velocity envelope of a rotary detonation engine.

This thing can't be faked!

"no……"

Zhao Changhong was completely baffled.

"What are you doing?"

"What the hell is this?"

"Can someone explain this to me?!"

He looked at Yang Hewei.

Yang Hewei remained silent.

He then looked at Gong Jianping.

They all remained silent after taking a look.

"Didn't you promise a model?! What the hell is this rotating detonation engine?!"

Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, Qin Ze was somewhat confused: "What model? Haven't we been following the highest project standards all along?"

Yang Hewei: ...

Gong Jianping: ...

As Qin Ze's direct superiors and the project's advisors, the two were utterly speechless.

We just asked you to make a PowerPoint presentation, who the hell asked you to make something real?

You actually did the most outrageous thing ever!

"Young man, what's the deal with your project?"

Zhao Changhong realized the seriousness of the situation, and his blood pressure soared.

"You've never even worked in a wind tunnel, how could you possibly build a rotary detonation engine!"

Qin Ze: "I did it. I even submitted the wind tunnel data. Didn't you guys see it?"

"Isn't that fake?"

Yang Hewei roared.

He immediately searched for his phone.

The original wind tunnel data was found.

The lift coefficient is 0.000078.

The drag coefficient for supersonic cruise is 0.000031.

Pitching moment 0.000047.

"Look! This is all fake data I made up; Section Chief Sun was in charge of falsifying it!"

Yang Hewei personally demonstrated it to Chief Engineer Zhao.

"This data is meant to mislead the enemy!"

Qin Ze couldn't understand a word these old men were saying.

He took Yang Hewei's phone, carefully checked the details for half a second, then pouted and said:

"I'm not too sure about confusing the enemy or anything like that."

"But this set of wind tunnel data is correct; it is our wind tunnel data."

"This was the number we predicted when we first started forecasting it."

"Even if you don't believe me, you have to believe Section Chief Sun. He followed the data the whole time."

That concludes my statement.

All eyes turned to Sun Xiang.

……

now.

Sun Xiang was practically rubbing the phone in his hand until it sparked.

He immediately called Xu Jun, the person in charge of the wind tunnel.

"You rascal! Answer it already!"

"Hey? Is something wrong, Section Chief Sun?"

Upon hearing the call connect, Sun Xiang became arrogant and dismissive of everyone.

"Did you change the wind tunnel data that day?"

Xu Jun on the other end of the phone was taken aback at first, and after a long while, he asked, "Didn't you change it?"

"ah????"

Xu Jun: "When I went to the lab, the data had already been changed to an exaggerated level. I thought you had changed it."

Sun Xiang was stunned: "So you didn't change it?"

"Mmm—"

Sudden.

Sun Xiang hung up the phone.

If Xu Jun didn't change it, then the data is accurate.

He looked up at the crowd and shook his head helplessly.

In a short time.

The silence was deafening.

If the wind tunnel data is real, then that means the plane we just saw was real.

actually!

Even without verifying the data, Zhao Changhong already knew the answer.

The plane is definitely real.

A fake plane with a diesel engine is definitely not the kind that dies.

He just didn't want to believe it—a project by a group of students had actually created a next-generation fighter jet by hand.

"Wait a minute!"

Zhao Changhong's heart rate was around 120.

Although I didn't do anything, I just stood there.

He was also panting heavily, his emotions were in turmoil.

"Let me sort this out!"

"We asked you to build a fake airplane and create a PowerPoint presentation, and you built it to look real."

? ? ? ?

Qin Ze: "What fake airplane? I don't understand."

Zhao Changhong: "The Yunji project you're involved in is fake; it's a scheme to mislead the enemy, a joint effort between us and the security department!"

Qin Ze: ? ? ? ?

Zhou Jiahao: ? ? ?

All the students present: ? ? ? ?

Of all these people, Qin Ze was the quickest-thinking.

Holy crap!

No wonder!

No wonder Director Yang was always so calm and collected every time I took the project for inspection!

At first, I thought Director Yang was an NPD!

So they don't care about our plans at all!

That makes sense. Thinking about it that way, everything makes sense.

A group of college students were enthusiastically working on drones, and the teachers didn't say anything; in fact, they strongly supported them.

That's impossible!

Moreover, the teacher was basically not involved in the process.

Sun Xiang, who was in charge of maintaining secrecy, was quite involved.

Qin Ze then realized that he and his classmates were part of their play.

"Is this something a human being would do?"

Qin Ze was quite angry at that moment.

"We treat you like teachers, but you treat us like your daily lives."

"We've been working hard on this project, and you haven't offered any help whatsoever."

"So, in the end, they'll use us to attack America's stronghold?"

Hearing Qin Ze's complaints.

All of the old Dengs felt extremely guilty.

But now is no longer the time to feel guilty.

"We were in the wrong, so you can do whatever you want with us afterward."

Zhao Changhong apologized repeatedly.

"The most urgent thing right now is your plane!"

"Besides the rotating detonation engine, what else about you is real?"

Qin Ze: "What kind of talk is that? It's all true!"

"Adaptive variable waverider configuration? All-moving V-tail? Retractable leading-edge shock wave adjustable flaps?"

Zhao Changhong searched for his previous memories and roughly recounted them.

"Integrated high-temperature ceramic-based metamaterial skin? Equipped with an onboard plasma stealth generator? RCS consistently below 0.0001 m²?"

"These... but are they all true?"

Qin Ze: "Otherwise what? Do you think I'm like you guys? Don't I have any serious business to attend to?"
