Next, a stealth unmanned combat aircraft with an extremely aggressive and streamlined design appeared on Lorraine's screen.
This large unmanned combat aircraft is classified as a single-seat, twin-engine, supersonic stealth fighter, and adopts a tailless delta wing plus canard configuration.
The forward fuselage features a pointed, conical nose with a double-sloping leading edge to optimize shock wave structure and support high Mach number flight.
The original cockpit location was replaced with an intelligent flight computer and electronic equipment, seamlessly integrated with the fuselage. The absence of protruding frames reduces radar cross-section and drag.
The canard is located above the air intake and in front of the leading edge of the main wing. It has a small aspect ratio and a large sweep angle of 55°, and has an all-moving structure to improve high angle-of-attack maneuverability and lift vectoring assistance.
The air intake uses variable DSI technology, without boundary layer diverters, and achieves pre-compression and separation control of the intake airflow through a bulging compression surface, which significantly reduces the dead weight of the fuselage and improves stealth performance.
To further reduce radar cross-section (RCS), the air intake is an S-shaped embedded intake, equipped with radar-absorbing materials, effectively shielding the radar cross-section of the engine compressor blades and achieving air intake stealth.
The propulsion system consists of two turbojet engines, both with two-dimensional vector nozzles capable of deflection of ±20 degrees.
In addition, the tail nozzle has a serrated edge design to suppress infrared and radar signatures; at the same time, the tail nozzle is integrated with the fuselage to form a conformal exhaust channel.
The aircraft's main wing is a delta wing with a medium sweep angle and a leading edge sweep angle of 52 degrees. The wing root is thickened to accommodate fuel and landing gear. The wingtip is chamfered and slightly upturned to improve roll response performance.
This aircraft is not designed with a horizontal tail and relies on canards, main wings and vectoring nozzles to achieve all-axial control, belonging to a three-axis tailless layout.
The fuselage cross-section transitions from an elliptical shape to a rhomboid shape, effectively suppressing transonic wave drag.
The fuselage has two side bomb bays, each capable of holding three medium-range air-to-air missiles, one heavy air-to-ground missile, or one air-to-surface thermobaric bomb. The bomb bay doors are fitted with embedded hinges and are flush with the fuselage skin when closed.
There are two heavy-duty pylon mounting slots on each side of the wing, which can be used to install jettisonable pylons. The two heavy-duty pylons on the left and right sides near the fuselage are equipped with fuel receiving ports for external fuel tanks.
The two heavy-duty pylons on the outside can be equipped with a triple-launcher medium-range air-to-air missile or a single airborne thermobaric bomb.
The entire unit employs low-observable surface treatments, including radar-absorbing structures and skin; there are no external exposed wires/sensors.
Meanwhile, the engine nozzle is integrated with the cold air mixing chamber, and the exhaust temperature is reduced by ejector cooling.

The unmanned combat aircraft has a large number of built-in observation devices in its wings, which can be equipped as independent modules on UAVs. The existing module types are respectively for air superiority missions, ground attack missions, and electronic reconnaissance missions.
Because the nose of this unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) incorporates an intelligent control unit and adaptive programming, it is also equipped with a separate ejection module and protective device.
Because the aircraft is equipped with two turbofan engines with extremely high thermal efficiency, which can provide a very high amount of electricity to the aircraft itself, key parts such as the nose and engine compartment are fitted with thin electromagnetic armor, capable of withstanding a direct hit from a 20mm kinetic energy penetrating projectile.
"This aircraft is actually comparable to a Tier 6 fighter jet, but due to incomplete production data and slow progress in some technological research and development, I have left it with ample room for upgrades."
"Furthermore, due to the shortage of nuclear fusion fuel, subsequent models of this machine will not be equipped with thermonuclear engines."
"What are your plans for upgrading this fighter jet?"
While carefully observing the 3D projection of the aircraft, Platinum asked Lorraine a question.
"some."
Lorraine opened the design folder and showed it to Bai Jin and Ouyang Nian, who were standing in front of the 3D projection.
"The first thing to upgrade is the airborne fixed armament. I plan to equip it with small laser weapons, with both laser beam and cutting modes."
"The second thing that needs to be upgraded is the airborne weaponry. I was going to equip it with a small-caliber electromagnetic railgun, but it was not implemented due to the destructive power of the projectiles and the insufficient power of the airframe."
"The third is a miniature missile pod, which will carry an omnidirectional, multi-purpose, high-overload missile. Its warhead and metal casing will be made entirely of metallic hydrogen."
"The last upgrade doesn't seem too difficult?"
Then Lorraine spread his hands and, in an extremely straightforward and helpless manner, explained the reason.
"The reason why the design was not completed is simple: on the one hand, there was not enough time, and on the other hand, the metal hydrogen plant has not yet been completed."
As Lorraine spoke, she quickly glanced at her intelligence system.

With time running out and the task ahead heavy, the first priority is to deal with the mining bug ship that is being repaired on the seabed.
Over the next three days, Lorraine and Ouyang Nian needed to complete the design of two more airships and pass the simulation tests in Cleveland.
Then, the flagship will be upgraded to be able to destroy an unprotected spaceship that is about 300 meters long.
After clarifying their next task objectives, Lorraine and Ouyang Nian once again plunged into the design studio.
After a brief discussion, the two determined the design requirements for the warship.
