Chapter 588: Production of Lunar Vehicles (Part II)
The lunar vehicle is of great significance and far-reaching, and Ye Chen and they have been looking forward to it for a long time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoI have been looking forward to it for a long time, and I have finally looked forward to it, and I can start production. Whether it can succeed or not, at this moment, at this moment, everyone can't help but be nervous.
Ye Chen only felt that his heart was tensed violently.
Who is not like this?
Just when everyone was nervous, I saw a reaction on the projection screen, the data showed out, and the production line was running.
Ye Chen took a long breath, and his tense heart let go of a little, this first step was taken, and it was one step closer to success.
A workpiece was sent over by the production line, which was the nose of the lunar vehicle.
Although the lunar vehicle adopts vertical take-off and landing, its shape is somewhat similar to that of an aerospace fighter and it also has a head.
Of course, the nose of this aircraft is not as huge as the nose of an aerospace fighter, and it is much smaller, only a quarter the size.
It is the same as the nose of an aerospace fighter, and it is also a whole, which is also not easy to process.
The machine head was fixed by the production line, Ye Chen and the others looked at the data on the projection screen, they were very satisfied, there was no problem.
Ye Chen issued an instruction to switch to manual molding, everyone came to the scene, and Ye Chen entered the instruction to conduct testing. The final result was very good, and Ye Chen and the others returned to the control room.
"Processing." Ye Chen gave an order.
Everyone's hearts are tense again, and whether they can carry out the required processing of the machine head will be known at this moment.
In the nervous expectation of everyone, the production line processes the machine head.
Everyone looked at the data on the projection screen, and their eyes widened and widened, with both strong shock and full of joy.
The data is very good and the machining process is stable.
"Just like the trial production of the aerospace fighter, stable!" The chief let out a long breath and was the first to break the silence.
"Stability is good!" The hearts of the people were relaxed.
Yes, this kind of technology is extremely difficult and complex processing, and stability is more important than anything else.
Time passed in the data displayed by everyone looking at the projection screen, and finally, Ye Chen and the others quickly reached an agreement.
"It's very stable and shouldn't be a problem. It's time for the next part. Ye Chen concluded.
He designed the production line, he also designed the lunar vehicle, and he had the most say. After listening to Ye Chen's words, everyone was even more happy, and urged: "Next, next." ”
Ye Chen gave an order, and the next part was the fuselage that was sent in by the production line.
The lunar vehicle is still almost made into a single unit, the fuselage is divided into five parts, the nose is two fuselages and two wings.
What was sent was the left half of the fuselage, which was only a dozen meters long, which was too much shorter and too small than the air and space fighters. The aerospace aircraft production line designed by Ye Chen can handle the fuselage of the aerospace aircraft that is much longer and larger than this, and there is no problem in handling the fuselage of the lunar vehicle.
However, Ye Chen did not take it lightly, but waited until it was fixed, switched to manual mode, came to the scene for inspection, and was fixed very well, there was no problem, and then he was satisfied.
Back in the control room, Ye Chen gave an order and began to process the left half of the fuselage. The data is as stable as ever, which is very satisfying.
After looking at it for a while, the right half of the fuselage was processed, and it was still very stable, which made everyone more confident, and it seemed that the lunar vehicle was more likely to succeed.
Then there is the machining of the two wings.
The main function of the wing is to provide lift, which is an important reason why the aircraft can fly in the air. The lunar vehicle flies on the moon, there is no air on the moon, it cannot provide lift, and it stands to reason that there is no need for wings.
The reason why Ye Chen still designed the wings was that he needed to test flights on the earth, and in case of engine problems, he also needed wings to save his life, so he designed the wings.
Of course, the wings are not only for this purpose, but also for other purposes, which can be used to load materials, which is equivalent to expanding the cargo compartment of the lunar vehicle.
The processing of the wings also went smoothly, and everyone was finally relieved.
"With the experience of the production of aerospace fighters, I am sure that there will be no problems." Admiral Xiao smiled and took the lead in expressing his views.
"That's right." Chiefs, they strongly agreed.
In terms of fuselage processing, the fuselage of an aerospace fighter is so large and so long, it can be done. The fuselage of the lunar vehicle is much smaller, much shorter, and there is no problem.
Of course, this is just the beginning, and there are many more parts to be machined.
Ye Chen gave instructions, and workpieces were constantly sent in for processing.
The whole process was very stable, and the chiefs were relieved to go offline one after another.
Before going offline, the chief congratulated Ye Chen and them: "Xiao Ye, although the production of the lunar vehicle has just begun, there is still a long way to go. But I'm sure you'll succeed. I wish you an early completion of a lunar vehicle to lay a solid foundation for the country's lunar development program. ”
Bang Bang Bang!
Ye Chen and the others applauded together.
The lunar development plan is always being looked forward to by the country. If successful, it will be the first step for humanity to break out of the earth and into the universe. Although human beings only go to the Earth's moon to develop, produce, and live, the distance is not too far, only 380,000 kilometers. This is negligible compared to the distance in the universe.
However, it is significant.
The first is to lay a solid foundation for mankind to enter the universe and accumulate experience.
Once human beings rush out of the earth and go to the universe and live in space, they will face a much harsher environment than the moon. Moreover, human beings also need to replenish supplies as they walk through the universe.
Where do the supplies come from? Develop the planets you encounter, mine on them, refuel them, and more.
With the experience of lunar development, it will be much easier to do this kind of thing again.
The second is to prepare the power for human beings to enter the universe, that is, helium-3.
Helium-3 is the power of nuclear fusion engines, and the Celestial Empire is already working on nuclear fusion engines, and it is believed that in a period of time, it will be able to break through the theory, enter the actual design stage, and then manufacture it. Without enough helium-3, humanity will not be able to go far.
Helium-3 is stored in very limited quantities on Earth, but it is abundant on the Moon.
It is precisely because the development of the moon has such a broad prospect, such an important significance, and such a far-reaching impact that the country attaches great importance to it. In order to complete the development of the moon, it is necessary to explore the moon first, and to fully grasp the situation of the moon, it is necessary to have a lunar vehicle.
"Thank you, Chief." Ye Chen: They were very excited.
After admonishing for a while, the chief hung up the phone.
"Xiao Ye, come on! I'm sure you'll make it! "Before General Xiao left, cheer Ye Chen and them on.
Before General Luo Liu Ganshang and General Gan left, they were also cheered up, and then went offline.
Ye Chen and the others were at the scene, but their interest was high, and no one was willing to leave. Look at them like that, I wish they were living here.
It wasn't until the next day that Huang Lao, Wu Lao, and Xu Gong reluctantly left. If it weren't for the fact that they were going to crack the genes and need to make the equipment, they would have liked to live here.
The rest of the people ran here whenever they had time.
Ye Chen, the main energy is here.
In a blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed, the nose fuselage wing processing has been completed, and it is time to roll off the assembly line.
Zhuang Lao and they came when they heard the wind, and it didn't take long for the control room to be crowded with people.
"You're too well-informed, aren't you?" Ye Chen said speechlessly, as soon as they heard that they were going offline, they rushed over.
"We're not well-informed, we're always paying attention." Zhuang Lao corrected Ye Chen's words.
"That's right. Lunar vehicles are related to our country's lunar development program. It would be even better if we could see it with our own eyes in our lifetime, can we not pay attention? "Xu Lao almost sang it.
The development of the moon is exciting and represents a huge step forward for humanity. However, it will take a long time, and Xu Lao is not too young to complete it immediately, and they can see it in their lifetime.
If that's the case, it would be wonderful.
"Since it's so neat, I'll find out about the other things first." Chief Master Ye Chen asked, "What is the situation with the air and space fighters?" ”
Ye Chen was busy building a lunar vehicle, and the matter of contacting the aerospace fighter was handed over to Chief Qian.
"Xiao Ye, don't worry, it's going well. Now the fuselage is ready, and various equipment is already being installed. I believe that in another month or two, we will be able to test flights. Chief Cadre let out a long breath and said with a smile: "We are waiting for the air and space fighters." ”
The air-space fighter is an extremely complex system engineering, and after the fuselage is completed, it will be necessary to install various equipment, which will take a long time, and you will not want to complete it in a few months.
"That's good. What about the test flight? Ye Chen asked again.
"Xiao Ye, it's no problem." Chief Cadre said with joy and regret: "All the test flights have been tested, and there is no problem." Now we are waiting for the aerospace fighter to be ready and loaded for the final test flight. The point is that the extreme test flight cannot be tested. ”
The flight hair and the black ribbon do not match, it feels like a big horse-drawn car, not enough to fly.
"Chief Master Lei, what about the gas turbine?" Ye Chen asked.
"Xiaoye, let me tell you, the sea trials in the Pacific Ocean have been completed, and there is no problem. Now our warships have arrived in the Western Hemisphere and are ready to participate in escort missions in the Western Hemisphere, tested by real combat. Master Lei said with a smile.
Warships are used for combat, and our country now has no naval battles to fight, and the performance of gas turbines can only be tested by escort ships. This is a bit unsatisfactory, but it is much better than just a sea trial.
"If only we could fight." Ye Chen frowned and said, "Actual combat is the best test of weapons. ”
The United States has always looked down on the weapons of the Celestial Empire, why? In addition to the arrogance of the United States, there is another very important reason, that is, the weapons of the Celestial Empire have not been tested in actual combat. On the contrary, the weapons of the United States have been tested in actual combat, and the United States has launched so many wars overseas, in addition to pursuing national interests, it also has another purpose, to experiment with weapons.
"Don't you tell me it's a pirate? drove a warship to fight pirates, and he looked up to pirates too much. "The pirates in the Western Hemisphere are no longer the pirates of the most prosperous period of piracy in history, their strength is weak, and it is really overkill to use warships to fight pirates, Ye Chen has little interest in this approach.
"Xiao Ye, of course the state has taken this into account. Have you paid attention to the situation in the Middle East? The current situation in the Middle East is very strange. "Master Lei means something.
Ye Chen's eyes lit up suddenly.
