Chapter 272: Restoring Order

At this moment, on a large flat clearing near the right side of the new country.

More than a dozen construction vehicles are shuttling and plowing on the newly established runway, filling the vacant positions everywhere.

The construction of the airfield was tendered by the new country, and finally the construction was carried out by the largest builder at present, and the new national soldiers were also responsible for ensuring the safety of the construction site.

As the first military airport in the new country, there will certainly be a lot of advanced gadgets here.

At this moment, in the apron of the airport, there is a flat shuttle-shaped fighter plane lying quietly, shaped like a falcon, named Falcon-5.

At this moment, Xu Yuan was standing in front of the tarmac, under the leadership of Wang Haisen, to visit this new weapon developed by the Aerospace Institute.

"Falcon-5, a fixed-wing fighter, can take off through vertical take-off and landing and runway two modes, the belly can be mounted with 2 rounds of close-range anti-air **, and 4 rounds of medium and long-range anti-air or ground**, the nose part is also installed with a 10mm cannon, according to your requirements, the firepower is absolutely reliable!" Wang Haisen patted the nose of the plane and grinned at Xu Yuan.

Nowadays, the cutting-edge military products of the entire new country are basically from the technical team led by Wang Haisen, so Xu Yuan trusts him very much.

Nodding approvingly, Xu Yuan looked at the powerful fighter.

"What about stealth and speed?"

Concealment and speed are the life of a fighter, and the thickness of the armor does not have a great significance at high altitude, no matter how advanced the fighter is, it is difficult to withstand two ** strikes.

"The shell of the aircraft is coated with a radar signal attenuation coating, and the display area on most radars is only equivalent to a sparrow, and the radar signal detection system at the bottom of the aircraft can track the coordinates of the ground radar base station in reverse, and as for the speed, the maximum cruise speed can reach Mach 5." The corners of Wang Haisen's mouth hooked up a smug smile.

And for this number, Xu Yuan is also very satisfied.

The maximum speed of Mach 5 has already surpassed the record of Mach 3 set by the current Berry Nation fighter jet.

It can even be said that it is approaching the limit of the speed that a fighter can achieve in the atmosphere.

Of course, in the case of combat, it is naturally impossible to use the maximum speed for combat.

"From the engine to the fire control system, from the landing gear of the aircraft to the **, it is all made by 3D printing technology." Wang Haisen continued.

"How feasible is industrial production?" Xu Yuan asked.

3D printing is expensive and wastes a lot of materials and energy.

Moreover, the cost of 3D printing to produce a fighter jet is probably more than three times that of an industrial production line to produce a fighter jet.

Although the new country is rich and rich, if any cutting-edge weapons rely on 3D printing technology, Xu Yuan, who burns this money, is still a little distressed.

"It's difficult, it's hard to do it with our industrial level of heat-resistant materials." Wang Haisen shook his head and said.

Xu Yuan thought for a moment and said.

"Do you think it is feasible to hand over the means of production of some simple parts to external military factories and outsource these parts to them as much as possible, so that the cost should be much lower than 3D printing, and the production cycle can be shortened, do you think it is feasible?"

Wang Haisen pinched his chin and meditated.

"Is it a part with a simple process? Strictly speaking, the production process of no component is simple. ”

Xu Yuan shook his head and said with a smile.

"When I say the process is simple, I don't mean the difficulty of producing according to the production process we know, but the technical feasibility, don't underestimate the creativity of the people, as long as we offer the right price and the technology can be realized, they may be able to develop a more cost-effective production process than us."

Regarding Xu Yuan's statement, Wang Haisen is obviously not very convinced.

After all, he came from the Vault, and he really didn't believe that the survivors in the wasteland were capable of solving the problem of producing fighter parts.

However, due to the disparity in status, he did not show his disdain for the survivors of the wasteland.

Seeing that Wang Haisen didn't speak, Xu Yuan probably guessed what he was thinking, but he just smiled and didn't say much on this issue.

Wang Haisen is very arrogant, but this arrogance is not arrogant for no reason, but stems from his rigor in technology.

"Science and technology are two different things, the former determines the development space of the latter, and the latter determines the practical value of the former, and the ability to survive under the cruel radiation to this day has proven the creativity of the survivors."

"But you can't expect a group of refugees to do the job of a technician, well, if you insist."

"If I think about screws, wings, canopies, ejection seats, operator interface housings and things like that, about 60% of the basic parts are not very technically difficult." Sighing as if giving up, Wang Haisen said.

"Good." Xu Yuan nodded and patted the technician's shoulder with satisfaction,

"You make a detailed table of these parts and hand them over to Wan Xiaowen, and the rest of the parts are still produced by 3D printers."

"Understood." Wang Haisen nodded slightly.

They were only responsible for R&D and building the first prototype, providing drawings and production details.

As for the specific matters of production, the military factory of the base will be in charge, and there is no need for them scientists to worry too much.

"As for the next scientific research project," Xu Yuan paused, looked at Wang Haisen and said seriously, "I hope you will develop an airship that can stay in the air for a long time, has armor protection capabilities, and has basic firepower." ”

"Airship? Armor protection? Wang Haisen was stunned, frowned slightly, and said, "Is it still made of steel?" ”

"Is it technically difficult to implement?" Seeing Wang Haisen's embarrassed look, Xu Yuan asked.

"No, it's not that technically hard to implement, but I've never heard of an airship as a weapon." Wang Haisen said helplessly.

"It's okay, just find a way to build one from start to finish." Xu Yuan smiled.

"But to build such a fortress in the air, the steel, titanium alloy, copper, aluminum, etc. needed will be astronomical, from the point of view of cost performance, does this thing really make sense?" Wang Haisen questioned.

"Of course it makes sense." Xu Yuan had a mysterious smile on his face.

In the source star, it may be that the cost performance of this thing is almost exactly equal to 0, but on Earth, this is a symbol of strength!

What's more, waiting for the day when the radiation is clear, he wants to make the entire source star his backyard.

And all this requires strength!

Unchecked technology is dangerous, even more so than zombies and radiants.

On this planet surrounded by radiation, Xu Yuan has reason to believe that there is a greater danger waiting for him!

[Where the new country goes, where the radiation is gone]

It was a slogan put up by the soldiers of the new country in the early morning, and he was printed on the gate for all the merchants and travelers who came and went to pay their respects.

After the large-scale radiation beasts and zombie eradication operations, this has become a place that the survivors of District 9 yearn for.

Merchants and wanderers are taking the legend of the new kingdom even further, and that powerful and stable force is trying to restore order!
