The reason why the Combined Fleet went retrograde along the predetermined orbit of the alien fleet was to block the enemy forces to the greatest extent and ensure the annihilation effect of this battle.

Although the aviation forces continue to use the tactics of the combined fleet, they are not far from learning from the past, and of course they will not make the same mistake again.

After leaving the earth, more than 100 heavy aerospace fighters divided into four waves, sailing close to the orbit of the alien fleet, but did not enter its orbit, and after avoiding the coverage of the debris, they approached from the front side of the alien fleet, and immediately broke away after firing missiles.

A wave of thirty fighters, each fighter with eight missiles, each salvo is a simultaneous attack of 240 missiles, even if the alien battleship is hidden in a dense cloud of debris, it is still overwhelmed by the continuous nuclear explosion, only two waves of missiles are fired, and the remaining eight alien warships are disgusted on the spot.

However, the aviation did not stop there, and the remaining two waves still launched all the missiles, bombarding the cloud of debris over and over again, until they could not find half a slightly larger debris, and then they returned to the ship contentedly.

It was not easy for the battleship to turn around, but the fighter said that it would go back and go back, and it would not drag the mud and water at all...... The size of the fighter plane is so small, and there is no extra place to load supplies, so let the fighter fly for ten days and a half and then return to Earth, and a large number of pilots must starve to death.

The victory of the air force was seen as a sign of the end of the Raglan campaign. Moreover, the success of the interception operation confirmed the superiority of the air force and directly led to the military's determination to develop aerospace carriers.

Just one day later, a cloud of debris passed near the Earth, and a small amount of debris was captured by the Earth's gravity, crashing several satellites in outer space and falling into the atmosphere, causing a meteor shower that lasted more than 40 minutes.

The main body of the debris cloud crossed the Earth's orbit and cut into the gap between Venus and the Earth's orbit, and later the debris cloud was affected by the gravitational pull of Venus and divided into two parts, one part fell into Venus, and the other debris formed a sparse debris belt between the Earth and Venus, which was much smaller than the asteroid belt, but somewhat similar.

In early March, the research institute finally completed the design of the nuclear power engine, and the design drawings were sent to Beiyuezhou as soon as possible.

Under the coordination and command of the Northern Capital, Beiyuezhou dispatched elite soldiers and strong generals, and it took only two days to manufacture two prototypes of nuclear power engines.

The principle of the nuclear power engine is no different from that of the Orion Project, but decades have passed, and the rapid progress of technology has led the design institute to completely abandon the old design content and design a new nuclear power engine.

The structure of this engine is very similar to that of a conventional recoil engine, and the engine has a cavity structure similar to a fuel chamber, called a reaction chamber.

In the deepest part of the chamber is a very simple firing device that continuously fires small plastic balls the size of mung bean grains.

Don't underestimate this inconspicuous little plastic ball, this thing is the real heart of the nuclear power engine - the hydrogen atom in the plastic ball is not ordinary hydrogen, but the isotope deuterium of hydrogen, and the plastic ball also contains the right amount of helium3.

When the plastic pellet is launched from the bottom of the reaction chamber, it will fly outward along the reaction chamber, and when the pellet flies to the end of the reaction chamber, a beam of high-energy laser will irradiate the plastic pellet, causing the fusion of deuterium and helium-3 nuclei, resulting in a very small nuclear explosion.

The explosion plasmizes the other elements that make up the plastic pellets, and the plasma at high temperature and pressure spreads rapidly in the reaction chamber, and some of them are quickly ejected out of the reaction chamber, allowing the nuclear engine to gain reverse propulsion.

By precisely controlling the amount of deuterium and helium-3 in the pellets, the nuclear explosion yield in the reaction chamber can be precisely controlled, and the energy is too high to destroy the reaction chamber.

The continuous discharge of fuel balls from the reactor chamber can provide a steady stream of propulsion to the engine, achieving a similar effect to the recoil engine, but consuming very little fuel.

When the military top brass learned of the news, they shattered the lenses of their glasses.

Solid-state fuel is not news, and all the missiles deployed by the military in outer space are solid-state fuel.

But the nuclear-powered engine is also made of solid fuel, and the work is as ridiculous as a BB bomb, which is really shocking.

But no matter what kind of way it works, whether it can be used or not, whether it is good or not is the most critical question.

The two prototypes produced by Beiyuezhou were sent to the orbital factory as soon as possible and installed on a 011-class warship.

This 011-class was returned to the factory for overhaul due to a breakdown and failed to join the combined fleet, and it is currently the only 011-class warship owned by Beiyuezhou.

After being fitted with a new engine, the 011-class immediately began sea trials.

It was found that the nuclear power engine not only fully met the design standards, but also slightly exceeded its acceleration performance, and its acceleration ability was no less than that of a chemical fuel engine.

According to the calculations of the design institute, if the 024 class is equipped with a nuclear power engine, it only takes one month to fly from the Earth to Mars, and it only takes four to five months to fly to Jupiter!

Such data does not seem to be a big deal, it is nothing more than twice as powerful as an electromagnetic engine.

But this data is true direct flight data, in other words, a spacecraft with a nuclear-powered engine does not need to use the Earth's gravitational slingshot to accelerate, but only relies on the engine to accelerate, and can fly to Jupiter in more than four months.

It's scary.

The emergence of nuclear power engines made up for the last shortcoming of space warships, and Beidu immediately notified Beiyuezhou to immediately start building the first generation of aerospace carriers.

The military's need for new warships was extremely urgent, but it was worried about the uncertainties brought about by the direct launch of large warships, and after thinking about it, it finally decided to launch medium-sized aerospace carriers.

In mid-March, the keel of the first space carrier was laid, which was officially named Penglai.

In order to protect the fragile thrusters, the Penglai did not use a dangerous external engine scheme, but installed a brake engine in the bow, and it was designed to rotate 360 degrees to adjust the attitude of the battleship.

The installation of engines in the bow will inevitably affect the armament of the bow, but in general the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

According to the experience of the Navy, the use of the aerospace carrier alone is risky, and it is necessary to form an aerospace battle group with the aerospace carrier as the core, referring to the experience of the aircraft carrier battle group, the 024 class and the 026 class have become the escort warships of the aircraft carrier battle group, and supply ships, medical ships and other special warships are also being designed.

However, the design institute first came up with not the design of the battleship, but the design of the second-generation aerospace fighter.

The wing-mounted engine scheme, which could not be applied to the warship, was directly transferred to the design of the fighter by the designers, giving the new fighter unparalleled maneuverability.

Human beings have been applying wing-mounted engine solutions to large aircraft such as passenger planes and transport aircraft, but now it is just a bomber-structured aircraft to perform the tasks of fighters, and no one stipulates that the engine is not considered a fighter under the wings, and the practical plan is the best solution.

Isn't it?
