Chapter 085: Rocket Launch Platform

On the night of the same day, three Haizi's "Atago-class" guided missile destroyers and two "Soryu-class" AIP submarines docked at the Yokosuka military port quietly set sail and sailed south along the Crooked Strait toward the waters of the Indian Ocean. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Among them, the three "Atago-class" missile destroyers also carried 36 members of three special assault teams.

After the fleet enters the Indian Ocean, the three special assault teams will transfer to the "Soryu-class" AIP submarine, then stealthily approach the coast of Dream Island, and finally get out of the submarine through the mouth of the submarine's torpedo launch tube and swim to Dream Island.

As for the weapons and equipment needed by the three special assault teams, they were transported to the shore of Dream Island by two pocket submarines accompanying them.

According to Junichiro Koizumi's concept, the three special assault teams secretly landed on Dream Island to approach Su Hongwen, and quickly solved the problem after the bodyguard team caught the mission target Su Hongwen, and then returned the same way and escaped from the pursuit of the Dream Island Navy on the submarine.

Such an operation is a standard special infiltration decapitation, and once Su Hongwen is successfully captured, it can basically guarantee that Su Hongwen will be brought back to Japan.

After all, even if there are five ships on Dream Island, it is impossible to intercept the Japanese submarine in time, Dream Island is surrounded by the sea, and Dream Island currently has no other residents except for construction personnel and military personnel, and it is very simple to escape.

Of course, even if the ships of Dream Island discover and intercept the Japanese submarine, they are not afraid, not to mention the help of the ships of the Mi Army around, the ships sent by Japan this time are not inferior to the ships of the Dream Island fleet in terms of quantity and quality, and the two sides really do it, and it is not certain who loses and who wins!

…………………………

When the Japanese ships were carrying the special assault team to the waters of the Indian Ocean, Su Hongwen did not know, and under the leadership of Xiaobai, he came to a valley located in the southernmost part of Dream Island.

It is a huge valley with a width of three kilometers from north to south and more than five kilometers from east to west, surrounded by steep mountains, strange volcanic rocks, and dense and lush trees all over the valley and beyond.

It was originally a volcanic crater, and there was nothing around it except for the rocks, and all kinds of trees and flowers were transplanted recently.

A barracks lay at the exit of the valley, and on this side was stationed a company of vigilant troops, dedicated to the security of the area.

At the back of the barracks, an eye-catching tower-shaped building stands in the valley.

The height of the tower is basically the same as the surrounding mountain cliffs, and the surface of the tower can not see any doors and windows, which are fully enclosed, and if you look closely at the details, you can suddenly feel its metallic texture.

The tower, built to cover up the space launch site that is under emergency construction here, is actually a crack generator similar to the one in the Red Alert game.

It can effectively block the shooting and reconnaissance of satellites and high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft from space.

If the reconnaissance satellite of the Mi Army flies over Dream Island, when filming this area, nothing can be found except for mountains and rocks.

After a distance of about three kilometers through the barracks and towers, you will see a huge rocket launch platform that has been built.

Unlike other countries' cosmodromes, this rocket launch platform does not have any launch pads, only a huge 100-meter-long square platform, which is 300 meters high from the ground, and in the center of the platform there is a circular hole with a diameter of 70 meters, which is closed by a manhole cover at the moment.

Because the construction and assembly of the rocket is completed in the underground arsenal, there is no need to move over long distances, before each launch, only need to lift the underground rocket into the round hole in the center of the platform through the elevator, open the manhole cover and launch it directly.

To put it simply, this launch platform, somewhat similar to an ICBM silo, is done in this silo whether it is refueling or loading the spacecraft onto a rocket.

A huge manhole cover with a diameter of 70 meters, one end is fixed by a hinge, and two hydraulic jacks and two solid gunpowder accumulators are installed on both sides under the bottom of the manhole cover.

In normal times, when there is no launch mission, this huge manhole cover is closed and closed.

Once there is a launch mission, when the rocket is launched, the manhole cover can be opened in only 7-9 seconds with an opening angle of 105 degrees using a solid powder accumulator.

One kilometer east of the launch pad, there is an entrance and exit to the underground military factory, which is camouflaged, and unless you look closely at it from a distance of three meters, you will see an ordinary mountain wall.

After observing these, Su Hongwen came to the inside of the launch pad under the guidance of Xiaobai.

"Welcome Commander!"

Seeing Su Hongwen, the engineering robots who were busy in an orderly manner immediately stood up and saluted Su Hongwen.

"Well, I'm just going to come over and take a look, just keep yourself busy!" It was the first time for Su Hongwen to face the collective salute of so many people, and he was in a trance for a while, and then he reacted and hurriedly said.

Subsequently, under the leadership of the person in charge of rocket launch and assembly, Su Hongwen and Xiaobai came to the factory where the launch vehicle was being assembled.

At this time, the assembly of a rocket is almost complete, and the engineering robot is assembling the satellite to the top of the rocket.

On the other side, more than a dozen engineering robots are manipulating the machinery to assemble the second launch vehicle.

"Commander, this is the No. 1 rocket assembly plant, which can assemble two launch vehicles at the same time, the No. 2, No. 3, No. 4 and No. 5 assembly plants are in the shape of a cross with the No. 1 assembly plant, the first is in the center, and in the four directions of the No. 1 assembly plant are the other four assembly plants." The robot engineer in charge of leading the work introduced to Su Hongwen.

Su Hongwen looked curiously at the rocket that had been assembled, this was the first time he had watched the rocket up close, and he had only seen the rocket launch through live TV before.

Although Su Hongwen imagined that the volume of the rocket was very large, he did not expect it to be so huge.

"Commander, this is the first launch vehicle that we have built after optimization and modification based on the rocket and intercontinental missile technology of various countries on Earth provided by Lord Starry Sky, codename: Dream! The height of the rocket body is 76.3 meters, including the satellite or spacecraft on the top, the total height is 102.4 meters, the diameter of the first and second stages is 9.8 meters, the diameter of the third stage and the instrument compartment is 6.1 meters, the launch weight is 2612.8 tons, the carrying capacity of low earth orbit is 102.1 tons, and the carrying capacity of earth escape orbit is 42.6 tons. ”

Su Hongwen was stunned for a moment and said, "What is the position of such a carrying capacity on the earth?" ”

"It is comparable to the carrying capacity of the 'N-1' of the former Soviet Union and the 'Saturn V' of the former Soviet Union, the largest launch vehicle on the earth, but now the United States and Russia have not launched these two rockets for many years, and in recent years, the 'Hercules IV' and 'Proton' launch vehicles with relatively small carrying capacity have been used."
