Chapter 142: Pilot (Third Update)
As the saying goes, the layman looks at the bustle, and the insider looks at the doorway.
When ordinary people see the thrusters behind the crimson storm, they can also describe it with a sentence of "lying down".
But in the eyes of some knowledgeable people, they immediately recognize what this thing is!
"! Isn't this a vector engine? ”
The military fans in the live broadcast room recognized these three thick tubes that could be turned up and down almost instantly!
Vector engines have always attracted attention in the eyes of domestic military fans, because China is currently the only three vector engine players in the world, and its strength is not as good as the other two players.
The backward ones are always in the spotlight.
But how can this thing be seen on a mecha!?
And it's so big!
Although they don't know the exact size of the engine, compared to the 76-meter Crimson Tempest, everyone knows that the nozzle diameter of this thing is definitely not small!
At least certainly bigger than all the vector engines in the world at the moment!
These people are just like the vector engine team that had just received Chen Shen's technical information, and a strong sense of absurdity rose in their hearts.
If anyone had told them before that the vector engine could be used on a mech, they would have spit on that person and told him that it didn't make sense, but not today......
Because such a magic change really exists!
……
Inside the main control room.
The researchers were busy in front of their computers, and they kept an eye on every data of the mecha and every detail of the change.
"If they shoot into the sea at this speed, they won't have enough fuel on them!"
The researcher monitoring the fuel data quickly frowned, and he looked at Chen Shen to indicate if they needed to alert the driver.
Chen Shen shook his head: "Don't worry, those three brothers are measured." ”
The three groups of pilots have been exposed to mecha-related training for a long time, and are familiar with the various performance data of the Crimson Tempest, so they naturally know that this will consume a lot of fuel.
"They'll only jet up in shallow waters, and if you go deeper, they'll turn off." Chen Shen knew the three brothers well and could guess their thoughts.
The deeper they went, the greater the resistance to the mecha, and it wouldn't be much faster to activate the jet acceleration, and the three brothers wouldn't fail to understand this truth.
"Understood." The researcher nodded, returning his attention to his computer.
Chen Shen was in his position, calmly looking at the comprehensive data on the master control screen.
These precise data from the countless sensors on Crimson Tempest's body form a report on the current status of the mecha on the computer, and he can obtain all the current mecha body conditions from these data.
At the top of the main control room, there is also a screen, which is the live broadcast of the outside real-time picture.
The picture quality of this live TV broadcast is very clear, mainly because of Chen Shen's special request, and the live broadcast team this time cannot be those who shoot rockets and frigates.
Otherwise, this live broadcast will not play a promotional role, and it will already be blessed by God if it has no negative effect!
So Central TV hurriedly transferred a professional film team over.
This is one of the reasons why the Crimson Storm can bring such a shock, and the professional photographers have a perfect control of all kinds of lenses.
And this time is outside.
The camera crew on board the film crew had retreated into the background, replaced by a re-launched aerial camera crew, who approached the Crimson Storm in a helicopter.
Recently, it was only more than 20 meters, and the lines on the armor could be clearly seen with the naked eye.
"As you can see, the weather conditions are not very good, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and the waves are starting to get bigger...... which is not suitable for testing," the reporter on the helicopter explained to the audience, and the photographer took pictures in the air.
"But according to the information we have so far, the ability of the red storm to resist the wind and waves is very strong, even if it is a storm, it also has the ability to go to sea, so the current rain can only be a little wind and rain for it, you don't need to worry......"
The photographer's lens is always locked on the crimson storm at sea.
At this time, the crimson storm was getting deeper and deeper, and the sea water had completely submerged its calves, and occasionally some wind and waves hit its back, and it would immediately be evaporated by the hot flames ejected by the vector thrusters.
However, at this time, the driver in the cab is feeling more and more resistance.
The driving bracket of the fourth-generation mecha is still mechanically driven, and the resistance of the mecha is large, and it will also be transmitted to the tripod after it is reduced, which is also a way of human-computer interaction.
"Turn off the thrusters!"
Under He Chuan's operation, the thrusters on the back of the mecha were closed, and the dazzling flames gradually converged.
Then the three of them controlled the mecha, lined up the resistance, and slowly walked towards the destination according to the established route.
Their destination is 7 nautical miles away, where there is a small fault and the depth of the sea will reach 87 meters.
Woo~~~
Suddenly, there was a long whistle.
I saw three huge frigates moving to the front, and their voices came over the radio.
"Crimson Tempest, we're going to carry out the pilot mission for you."
"Roger, thanks." He Chuan was not surprised at all, and calmly replied to them, this pilot task had already been set.
Then they changed their orientation, and the three frigates spread out in a zigzag pattern, leading the way, and the crimson storm was slightly behind the three ships.
This way, the frigates in front can help to remove part of the resistance to advance.
The scene of the frigate piloting the mecha was faithfully captured by the photographer on the helicopter.
On the dim sea, the frigate in front is slender, while the crimson mecha in the back is tall and mighty, and the searchlight above the head shines on the sea in front, and the whole picture looks extremely harmonious and complementary.
For a while, the people in the live broadcast room and the TV had a feeling-
This is a normal fleet, carrying out their daily missions, and not a single one of them feels that it is very incompatible for mechs and ships to act together.
The helicopter also circled in front of the frigate and deliberately lowered the altitude to allow the photographer to capture a near-flat perspective.
At sea level, behind the slender figures of the three frigates, a mecha emerged with a half-cut body, several times taller than the frigate, and was closely following behind them.
From this point of view, the frigate magically transforms into a small boat in a basin of water, and the huge mecha that follows behind it is magnified several times......
"Mecha plus fleet, Ah Wei sleeps in the grave!"
"This is so handsome!"
The barrage full of screens fully illustrates the shock of this scene to the audience.
Under everyone's attention, the frigate took the mecha to the next mile, a full half an hour of travel, and not a single audience was bored.
Everyone looked at this inexplicably suitable pair of CPs on the sea, and their hearts were smiling.
All kinds of memes have begun to spread on the Internet, and some people have even taken screenshots of this scene and added dialogue, turning the relationship between the three frigates and the mecha into a four-cornered love......
Finally, under the guidance of the fleet, the Crimson Storm came to the edge of the fault.
"General control room, we have reached the fault as scheduled."
"Perform tasks as planned." Chen Shen's voice came from the radio.
"Roger."
"Close all the cabins and prepare for the dive."
The three frigates continued to move ahead, while the Crimson Storm followed as usual, but was already slowly descending as the depth of the ocean floor changed.
Soon, the sea water had already submerged the mecha's body, leaving only the tallest one-eyed cockpit still on the surface of the sea.
At this time, on the frigate in front, a photographer quickly captured this scene.
In the midst of the raging waves, the circular observation window of the Crimson Storm cockpit faces the camera, emitting a bright yellow light, like a bright moon slowly falling......
