The thick and flat fuselage, the cockpit with the nose position similar to that of the Earth World civil aircraft, is indeed very similar to the monkfish. If you put wings together, although it is several times fatter than the transport plane of the earth world, the painting style is always normal.

But the most striking thing about this transport plane is not the body, but something much larger than the size of the body. Richie and Halligos were stunned by the thing at first glance, and only then did they come back to their senses to look at the body.

Wings, bizarre wings, distributed in a regular triangle, run through the entire plane.

The back is wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, with a dorsal fin twenty or thirty meters high, and the left and right fuselages stretch diagonally to the same ...... Wings, in contrast, the fuselage is more like a gadget hanging from this pair of wings, or a shelf.

"It's kind of like a grill with a fish fork," the blue dragon smacked his lips.

"This is a three-phase floating frame", Help was a little surprised: "The cardinal should know the latest achievements of the mobile fortress engineering floating system project team." ”

Li Qi suddenly said: "This is the three-phase floating frame?"

The 596 Project and the Mobile Fortress Project would send him briefings every day, and he would usually look at them carefully one by one. In the past few days, I have been training and preparing for the cactus base, and I just swept the title.

This thing mentioned in the title is related to the study of how multiple floating furnaces work effectively.

"With this shelf, the interference problem of two floating furnaces operating at the same time has been solved, and the floating capacity is even more than the sum of the two floating furnaces", Help said excitedly: "We originally put most of our strength on the design of the single floating furnace transport aircraft, but two days ago the mobile fortress engineering floating project invented the double floating furnace technology, I think what we urgently need now is a larger transport aircraft, so we transferred the power to this." Yesterday I sent a message to the Cardinal, as if you ......"

Yes, yesterday I was so busy that I didn't even read the title, and Li Qi didn't say anything and waved his hand to continue.

Help continued: "The technology of the double floating furnace is perfect, and we use it as soon as we use it. The technology related to the transport aircraft was also matured in the single-furnace model, so it only took us one day to redesign the airframe. In terms of indicators...... With a maximum load of 12 tons and a full load of about 400 kilometers per hour, the flight range can be from Beta City directly to Terros. ”

The load limit of a three-stage floating furnace is ten tons, and the remaining load is about five tons, except for the body, oil and various loads. Now the two units together can actually get a load of twelve tons, which is definitely the effect of one plus one is greater than two.

That's quite an achievement!

Li Qi found the report of the three-phase floating frame in the briefing, and at the end mentioned the "principle and model of multi-phase stacking of the floating array".

Hey, even the theory is there!

Looking at it again, joy and excitement rolled in Richie's heart, mixed with a strong sense of pride.

The original decision to take the 596 project as the interior and the mobile fortress project as the table was really wise!

The report briefly described the process of discovering this principle, which originally could not be fused and operated by two floating circles, each with its own scope of action. Even if the design is based on the minimum range of action, it must be separated by more than 100 meters. If you put it together, not only will there be no bonus, but the effect will be weakened by which floating circle is working.

After understanding the research direction of this project through the terminal of the floating project team, Ewen Tiwan found that there are similarities with the technical principles of the magic guide cannon through comparative reference.

The reason why the magic cannon can use multiple fireballs to stack up the firestorm technique, that is, the big fireball, is because it uses a set of buffers to ensure that each circle can be fully synchronized to fire.

The levitation project team received the guidance of Ewen Tiwan, and the direction was suddenly clear. Through the study of the buffer device of the magic cannon and the internal mechanism of the floating circle, they invented a set of synergistic mechanisms that can realize the simultaneous excitation and control of multiple floating circles, thus realizing the stacking.

However, the fireball stacking magic cannon is a plastic energy spell, and the spell effect is quickly released, and the floating furnace uses the magic field to generate a continuous floating force field, not only the magic impact generated will continue to accumulate, interfering with the magic circle, and the floating force field formed by the stacking will also deviate in the fusion area, so that the effect of one plus one is far less than two, at most one and a half.

At this time, Iwen Tiwan found inspiration in the Mobile Fortress Power System project, which transformed the magic field resonance technique into a magic circle, ready to be used to alleviate the continuous magic field distortion caused by the Super Mana Well, this technology has been introduced by Ewen Tiwan to the Super Magic Cannon project, in the past, this technology was used by magicians to reduce the mana cost of spells, and of course, the spell effect will also be reduced.

With the help of the supercomputer, the floating project team transformed the magic field resonance array accordingly and invented the three-phase stacked floating frame. Not only does it solve the interference problem of the two floating furnaces, but it also achieves a stacking effect, which is perfect.

It's not so perfect to say, this shelf is too big and eye-catching.

Help said, "Actually, it's a copper tube wrapped in a Mithril line, and the outermost layer is slime rubber. Although it is large, it does not weigh much, and the base attached to the fuselage is just right to arrange the flaps. ”

Li Qi looked at the monkfish transport plane in the air, and felt that there was a big problem in addition to being eye-catching, but he couldn't say it for a while.

Or Halligos, who was a flying unit, came to his senses: "How are you going to land?"

As Halligos said, this is a grill that holds a fish in three directions, and there is no way to land on flat ground, so why build a special landing pad?

"Cardinal, please see", probably thinking that it was not enough to say it with his mouth, Help asked the transport plane to demonstrate it live.

The "monkfish" began to descend with its dorsal fin as long as a long sword, and in the process, the pelvic fin as long as the dorsal fin began to fold upward, and when the landing gear was lowered and the plane landed firmly on the ground, the pelvic fin had been folded to a vertical angle, and when viewed from the head, it looked like a trident.

The thick flat head and the dorsal fin of the trident, although there is no chandelier, but it still reveals a strange sense of oppression, the name monkfish is really very appropriate, you must know that another name for this fish is called manta ray.

Help said regretfully: "We have spent a little more time on the question of how to break the shelf, otherwise we would have sent good news to the cardinal yesterday." ”

This method was really whimsical, but Richie had another question: "Doesn't this affect the stacking effect?"

"yes, so the ultimate load is only 12 tons, which could have been 15 tons," says Help, "considering that the 15 tons load is not intrinsically improved, it leaves room for the floating furnace." In terms of power, only one magic furnace with 9 dragon power is enough, and there is no need for two magic furnaces for fighters, and we think this restriction is acceptable. ”

The propulsion system of the monkfish transporter is obviously not a single propeller, but a twin propeller, completely borrowed from the coaxial reversal system of the salmon, not mounted in the tail position, but on the short wing of the back of the aircraft. This allows the rear of the aircraft to open a springboard door to facilitate loading and unloading of materials and accommodate larger cargo sizes.

Li Qi sent the information of the various layouts of the Earth World to the research institute, which was a choice they made according to their actual needs.

"Not bad, not bad", Richie stepped onto the gangplank and carefully inspected the wide cargo hold.

It cannot be directly compared to the cargo plane of Earthworld, but Rich roughly estimates that the carrying capacity is about the same as that of the C130. It is possible to carry twelve tons of cargo, or close to a hundred soldiers. The speed is not comparable, but there is no need for a runway.

As a universal transport aircraft, it should be enough.

"But this shelf is still too troublesome," he said dissatisfiedly, "It would be nice if there was a single floating furnace with higher power." ”

Compared with Richie, the pioneer of the new era of magic guided aircraft, Help finally showed a better professionalism: "A more powerful floating furnace requires a higher level of floating crystals, just like the chief cardinal stacks the magic cannon with a three-level fireball magic array, stacking with low-cost three-level floating crystals is the right direction." ”

Well, being educated by students, Li Qi was embarrassed and relieved.

"Of course, such shelves are really troublesome," Help added, "The Mobile Fortress Levitation Project Team has begun to study the construction of joint arrays with multiple floating circles, and if successful, these shelves can be removed." But that should take a long time, and until then, these shelves will not be removed. The floating project team is also working on the stacking method of the three floating furnaces, and the shelves will change from three phases to four phases. ”

Li Qi thought about the four-phase transport plane, and suddenly the scene of two iron sticks crossing over and setting up a fish roast suddenly appeared in his mind.

Magic technology has finally transformed into the normal painting style of this world......

Although the style of painting is normal all of a sudden, it is not adaptable.,At the same time, there are such and such flaws.,But time waits for no one.。 Litch asked Help to hurry up and refine the details of the monkfish transporter, hand over the drawings to the workshop next door, and put it into mass production as soon as possible.

Romrose is waiting to be fed and desperately needs his arms support. With such transport aircraft, heavier and larger equipment can be transported over.

"Well, in addition to perfecting the monkfish, the next task of the institute is to improve the salmon and at the same time devote its efforts to the research of a one-man air superiority fighter," Li Qi pointed out the goal for the institute.

Looking at the bloodshot director, and then at the one or two hundred people circling around the transport plane, Li Qi was a little worried: "You guys...... Can you still take care of it?"

"Of course we can't take care of it alone," Help replied very sincerely: "Everyone has been burning like a torch these days, and now although I feel that there is a bigger goal, I feel that the fire is much smaller, and even almost extinguished, no way, people are not puppets, they will always be tired." ”

Li Qi was about to arrange for them to take a group break, and Help smiled again: "But then we don't have to do everything ourselves, the magic wind tunnel has been built, from fighter jets to transport planes, we have followed the cardinal through the whole process, we know what needs to be done to design an airplane, and what to pay attention to." ”

"There have been a lot of design proposals from the Aviators' Guild that have been submitted to us, and many of them have been very impressive. The next work of our institute should be to refine and decompose the needs of the cardinal and the air force, and then complete the new design through the strength of these professional organizations. ”

"In other words, we have gone from being apprentices who have to complete tasks directly with their hands and brains to mentors who release tasks to apprentices and select good designs to become reality. ”

Li Qi wanted to pat his head, how to forget this stubble, this is still something he promoted on the day of Chinese New Year's Eve.

He asked, "So, Help, do you want to be a flying machine in the future...... What about the director of the engineering bureau, or as a designer?"

That's right, in the future, the Aircraft Research Institute will be renamed the Aircraft Engineering Bureau. It is no longer responsible for the specific design and manufacture of aircraft, but provides basic research sites and equipment for the willing and powerful aircraft design team, releases aircraft requirements to the society, and manages matters related to aircraft design and manufacturing.

"My dream was to design faster and more convenient magic flying machines, but after Cardinal General achieved such a breakthrough with a simple propeller, I felt that as a designer, I would not be able to climb very high in my life. ”

Helpe looked at this transport plane with a magical painting style, and said leisurely: "Now, I want to see more designers realize their wishes with my help, and see how far they can make the magic guide aircraft develop." ”

Richie had thought that the propeller was just opening the door to a new world of flight, with more colorful colors inside, and that telling the principle of the jet engine might make Help and his fellows burn again until they burned to ashes, but he couldn't help it.

Let's use the propeller to open this door in Fein first, and when the time is a little more ripe, we will continue to unveil the next era of flying.

Optimistically, at least ...... Half a year later, it's been a long time.

With the transport plane, Li Qi's side has to rush to build a transport aircraft force, and those people in the cactus base who have not even been selected for the fourth squadron happen to have a place to go.

Even better, with the transport planes, the air warning system conceived by Litch has fallen. By putting the heavy equipment that salmon can't carry on the AWACS plane, not only does Tina not have to monitor the sky on the ground, but ordinary people who have died can sit on the AWACS aircraft and grasp all the movements in the sky above the Godfall Plateau.

"You didn't tell Help about dragon boosters!"

When the blue dragon returned to the cactus base, the blue dragon made an accusation.

"This ...... Didn't you hear that the institute is no longer engaged in specific design?"

Li Qi said perfunctorily: "You can publish a research assignment at the Citizen Service Center, of course, I will give the reward." ”

Blue Dragon is not so easy to fool: "But I'm not a citizen yet, even my sideman is a foreigner!"

"Then you have to be naturalized," said Richie, "but you think about it, naturalization is our full member." Our side implements public ownership, so you have to say goodbye to the dragon life ideal of lying in a cave covered with sapphires and worshipping the servants and dependents, and work hard to be a dragon who contributes to the cause of Datongism and is willing to be a paving stone for the revolutionary cause. ”

The blue dragon, who had no revolutionary consciousness at all, flapped his wings like flies: "Can't you sleep on the sapphire?

It seems that it needs to be educated slowly......

Li Qi returned to the base, commended all the officers and men, including the Fourth Squadron, and began to form a transport aircraft unit, not to mention that the battle on 5 January was just an emotion for ordinary people, such as "there are a lot of flying dragons" and "propellers can fly so fast", but it had a different impact on the Fei Communist Party and its enemies.

"Can a propeller fly so fast?"

In the deep dragon's lair on the precipitous peaks southeast of Kxter, a halfling warlock is talking to a hooded man in the light curtain.

"Interesting, although it is not as fast as the magic flying boat, just by making the propeller several times larger, it can far exceed the flight speed of the dragons", the hooded man was also looking at another light curtain, which was impressively the aerial battle image north of Beta.

"But the firepower is still too weak, and it's just against the Wyvern," said the hooded man, "and there's no hope for a floating ship, this kind of ...... Stuff, no threat to the floating ship. So, Lord Milhaus, your right choice is to continue to buy our Ted family's floating ships, the new generation of ...... we have developed."

"I don't have that many Jinpu ears, and I don't want to think about the idea of fighting my dragon", the halfling screamed, "And your floating ships are too slow, and it is troublesome enough to encounter a strong enemy, didn't Romrose just shoot down a few?"

"That's ...... That's the Mad King's plan for cheapness, and he didn't buy our additional protection scheme", the hooded man tried to explain, "The floating ship is the master of the sky, this is a truth that has not been shaken in the era of the Magic Empire. The ones you bought before were all small armed floating ships, not really warships, as long as you buy our family's new generation of star-class warships, even if it is only two, they can dominate the sky of the Godfall Plateau. ”

The halfling didn't speak, and the hooded man coughed and said, "So...... The preferential price of one ship is 1.2 million. ”

"I've got my trump card, and I don't need to keep smashing the Campling on one or two big chunky guys," said the halfling, "I'm just going to ask you to make these propellers, and then you can put them on my wyverns to make them fly faster, and you can carry halflings in battle with magic guns." ”

The hooded man let out a series of violent coughs, as if to disguise some kind of strong emotion, and finally said in a tone that he tried to hide, "This ...... We Ted don't touch anything that we Ted don't touch, and I can introduce you to some workshops. ”

The halfling interrupted the communication in annoyance: "Okay, you guys are the same! I'll find someone myself!"

In one room, the light curtain has dissipated, and the hooded man is still in a daze.

After a while, he muttered uncertainly: "Although it is very subtle, it is not a new change that can be completely ignored, should I tell the patriarch?"

Then he shook his head: "Forget it, the patriarch is still busy with her business, and it's not worth bothering her for this kind of thing that is not even as good as a magic flying boat." ”
