When the 36 nominal reporters stepped off the aircraft, they were immediately surrounded by other reporters who did not have the courage to participate in the test flight. They all wanted to get some useful information from their peers, and they wanted to write a report on the Xiangjiang monster when they went back. If you don't have more information, who will read the article that is written when the time comes.

In fact, many people have regretted it, and they knew why they didn't reflect it when they knew it was so safe. As a result, you are now begging for help, and people are still ignoring you.

However, the reporters who have the courage to participate in the test flight are not ordinary people, how can they look at these uncourageous bastards. That is, a few beauties can get some useful information, and other male reporters can only watch the backs of people leaving.

Sure enough, as everyone expected, the next day, almost all the world's major media reported the news of the successful test flight of the ground effect aircraft of the Xiangjiang Heiyun Group. And if you have the courage to take a journalist to experience it, it proves that the technology is mature. Otherwise, no one would dare to take this risk, after all, accidents are no joke.

Once there is a mistake in front of reporters, then the Xiangjiang Monster ground effect aircraft is estimated to be able to play at home, and many countries will not agree to the aircraft to fly in their own countries, let alone their citizens to take the ground effect aircraft.

It can be said that this time, the world's major media are surprisingly unanimous, and they all believe that ground effect aircraft are a means of transportation in the new era. It is a creation that is not weaker than the aircraft, and Mike Brifin is directly defined as the father of the ground effect aircraft, which makes the Soviets very annoyed, obviously they are the first product to develop, how can someone else become the father of the ground effect aircraft, how can there be such a reason, but no one dares to say anything more out of the principle of secrecy.

Although ground-effect aircraft are important, the British universities are more interested in the Daily Express's report on multi-protocol routers. If it is really as the newspaper says, then it is necessary to visit Yulin Institute of Technology, which is the common idea of several famous universities in the UK. Due to the limited coverage of the Daily Express, it is only available within the UK at this time. Therefore, it has not yet aroused the alarm of the world's major universities and institutions, and it can be said that the British are ahead of the curve in this area.

Valenko Popoca went straight to the airport after the press conference, and he had to send the information he got to the country as soon as possible. It can be said that the Soviet side did not have so many scruples in order to be able to get information as soon as possible, and the high-level officials wanted to know whether the ground effect aircraft of the Black Cloud Group was stolen from the Soviet Union. If that were the case, there would have been a bloody storm, and at this time several technicians of the Alekseev Central Design Bureau had been brought under control in order to prevent them from escaping. However, they are all revolutionary comrades in any case, and no one can wronged a good person, so they all wait for information from Xiangjiang.

Valenko-Popoca soon returned to the KGB headquarters in Moscow, but what he never expected was to see Andropov in the conference room. This KGB chairman is the No. 2 person in the country, and he didn't expect that the high-level would pay so much attention to ground-effect aircraft, which made Valenko-Popoca immediately become extremely serious.

Seeing Andropov, Valenko-Popoca immediately saluted and said: "Comrade Chairman, Valenko Popoca, the KGB's second-level intelligence officer in Xiangjiang, reports to you and obeys your instructions at any time. ”

Andropov: "Comrade Popoca don't be nervous, the purpose of our special trip to wait for you here is to let you report on the relevant situation of the Black Cloud Group's ground effect aircraft. ”

It is also impossible for the Soviet Union to attach so much importance to elevation, before they were the only ones in the world who had this technology, but in the event of a war, it can definitely play a role in the surprise army, and now the black cloud directly discloses the product, resulting in all countries in the world when designing weapons, they will definitely develop ground-effect aircraft as an imaginary enemy, if this will not achieve a surprisingly difficult effect.

The USSR would lose some strategic advantages, and this is not the main thing. If it was really the Soviets themselves who sold the technical data to the Black Cloud Group, then it would be the misfortune of the whole country. The relationship is good, and it is also an outsider, if it is really an insider who sells technical information, it is no different from treason.

Valenko Popoca took out his camera and began to show the photos on the projector, and he brought a total of 3 cameras to the press conference. Therefore, a lot of photos were taken, especially the interior of the aircraft with detailed close-ups. As an intelligence officer, he understood that these were what the Soviet Union lacked, after all, the country's overall electronics industry lagged behind the West too much.

Pavlov, as the director of the Alekseev Central Design Bureau of the Soviet Union, can be said to have suffered a lot in the past few days, and the Black Cloud Group quietly made such a big move, making him very passive. In any case, the ground effect aircraft is also the scientific research result of their design bureau, and in the blink of an eye, the Black Cloud Group conducted a test flight of the aircraft. No one would have believed that it would be so rapid without technical information, after all, they had not received any relevant information before, and the Soviets always believed that no other institution in the world was researching ground effect vehicles.

Therefore, as soon as the Black Cloud Ground Effect Aircraft appeared, the relevant personnel of the Soviet Union who knew about the ground effect aircraft thought that they had a problem here. However, after repeated inspection, it was found that no one had leaked the secrets at all, but strong evidence had to be found, otherwise it would be difficult to be convinced.

However, after seeing the photos brought back by Valenko Popoca finally made Pavlov feel a lot more relieved. There is an essential difference between the Xiangjiang Monster and the Soviet-designed ground effect aircraft, although they are both designed according to the principle of ground utility. However, he saw that the performance of the Black Cloud version of the product was more superior, and the design layout was more reasonable.

Paplov asked: "Comrade Popoca, can you give us a brief introduction to the situation you have seen? I heard that you also flew some distance in the Xiangjiang Monster yourself." ”

Valenko Popoca glanced at Andropov, and only after seeing the other party nodding before he spoke: "The Black Cloud Group announced the technical parameters of the Xiangjiang Monster Ground Effect Aircraft: 108 meters long, 42 meters wingspan, 300 tons of dead weight, 800 tons of maximum take-off weight, 50 meters of maximum flight altitude, and the wing is equipped with 8 Black Cloud three-rotor turbojet engines. ”

With a range of 9,000 kilometers, the "Xiangjiang Monster" is capable of transporting 1,200 people around the world at a speed of 800 kilometers per hour. ”

"I personally experienced the flight speed of this aircraft, and it can be said that the overall flight is quite stable, and the sound of the engine is almost inaudible, but according to the outside reporter, the engine is very loud at the moment it starts. It shows that the sound insulation material of this aircraft is very good, and the main material of the Xiangjiang monster is titanium alloy, and all these titanium alloys come from the Soviet Union. In other words, we have a way to control him, as long as the supply of raw materials is cut off, Heiyun will not be able to produce the Xiangjiang Monster Ground Effect Flying Machine. ”

"Also, I don't see the dashboard inside the cab, all the data is displayed through the LCD screen. In addition, it is also checked by the computer when taking off, and when encountering obstacles during driving, the computer calculates the optimal route from the computer and continues to move forward. ”

"The overall analysis of this aircraft has a high degree of automation, and I think that the number of people who actually fly is about the same as that of an airplane. During the test flight, there were only engineers doing inspections, but the overall number of people was not very large. When it finally landed, it actually relied on the principle of engine backwards to decelerate, which shows that Heiyun has also made a major breakthrough in the field of engines. ”

Andropov: "Comrade Paplov, what do you think. ”

Paplov: "Comrade Andropov, it has already been possible to rule out the possibility of leakage by the personnel of our design bureau. The ground effect aircraft produced by Heiyun Group are at least ten years ahead of us, especially in LCD screens and electronic computers, which is an insurmountable technological gap. ”

"It is true that the Soviet Union as a whole is lagging behind in these two areas, and we should catch up, otherwise the gap will become wider and wider. ”

Andropov said: "Go and release several engineers from the Alekseev Central Design Bureau, and at the same time give everyone some subsidies." After all, we have wronged them, but for the sake of the country, I hope they can understand. ”

But no one really dares to complain, and even if they do, they have to hide it in their hearts. Andropov has already made a decision on this matter, so it is better for everyone to forget about it, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat.

Now that he already knows that he is technologically inferior to Kurocloud, Pavlov hopes to work with Kurocloud on ground-effect vehicles. Andropov also basically agreed, although this is somewhat in conflict with the development and production of the Soviet military industry, but now it is not so much to care about. At present, it is to see who to send to Xiangjiang for negotiations, and after seeing the information, a person appeared in Andropov's mind.
