After the Heavenly Blade spacecraft arrived at the air base, Gu Cheng also came here with Li Peng and others.

In this space base, Gu Cheng met with the commander of this air base, a middle-aged colonel officer.

"Mr. Gu, welcome, welcome." Colonel Wang shook hands with Gu Cheng warmly, and immediately said quickly: "I fell in love with this plane at first sight, can you go up and have a look?" ”

"Absolutely, no problem." Gu Cheng said with a smile.

It was already dusk, and under the reflection of the setting sun, the Sky Blade spacecraft parked in the air on the air base was full of epic romantic scenes, which made people impress and be fascinated.

Gu Cheng took Colonel Wang to walk towards the Heavenly Blade spaceship, and more than 80 people including Li Peng followed in a line with large bags and small bags.

Coming to the tail hatch of the spaceship, Li Peng and the others looked up at the steel giant beast, and after a while, the tail hatch of the spacecraft slowly opened. Gu Cheng turned his head to look at Leah: "Take the team members up to familiarize themselves with the cabin area." ”

Everyone immediately followed Liya to board the spaceship from the edge steel ladder at the tail hatch, Gu Cheng retracted his gaze and looked at Colonel Wang beside him, and said with a smile: "Please!" ”

The two of them quickly boarded the ship from the edge steel ladder on the other side, which was flat in the middle for large wheeled machinery.

When boarding the spaceship, Colonel Wang also unabashedly expressed his amazement, looked at the empty space in front of him, and muttered to himself: "Obediently, how big is the size of this cargo hold......

Gu Cheng said with a smile: "The total length, width and height of the cargo hold are 88.7m×19.4m×16.3m, and the three-layer composite cabin structure can be lifted and retracted, with a maximum load capacity of 1265 tons. ”

Colonel Wang was surprised when he heard this: "More than 1,200 tons of load? Wouldn't it exceed the maximum load of 19 Y-20s, good things, good things, one sortie can project almost two regiments of troops to any place in the world, tsk......"

At this moment, Senior Colonel Wang can be said to be full of emotion, and instantly has a feeling of falling in love, the Y-20 aircraft can carry about 120 paratroopers at a time, or about 160 infantry, the load of the Tianjian spacecraft can carry 2,900 infantry at one time, and the establishment of a standard regiment is about 1,500 people, nearly two regiments.

The military-strategic value of the Sky Blade spacecraft is simply immeasurable.

Gu Cheng said with a joking smile: "As soon as this big guy is built, the production line will be closed one after another from next year, and when the corresponding supply parts are almost in reserve, the entire production line will be closed. ”

The production line was shut down after just one was built, and even Tianqing Technology Group can't afford two of them now.

Colonel Wang stood with his hands in his hands, his eyes wandering around in the cargo hold of the spaceship, and suddenly said, "How much is one?" Tell me the cost, so that my Air Department will die soon. ”

Gu Chengyan was concise: "It's about five or six hundred billion, less than six hundred billion, and if you count the R&D cost, it's about seven hundred billion." ”

Hearing this number, Colonel Wang's heart died directly, and he didn't even want to answer.

The cost of an aircraft carrier is only 200 billion, and this aircraft is actually worthy of three aircraft carriers, and after a while, Colonel Wang turned his head and looked at Gu Cheng and asked, "What about the maintenance costs?" How much does it cost in a year? ”

Gu Cheng also said with a straight face: "It's not cheap, the budget expenditure is basically the same as that of an aircraft carrier in preparation." ”

Colonel Wang was completely dead when he heard this, aircraft carriers are typical even if they can afford to be able to afford them, and the total cost of raising an aircraft carrier for a year is about 140~150 billion.

It's no wonder that even Tianqing Technology can't build a second Sky Blade spaceship, and even if it does, it can't afford to raise it.

"Why are all the things you make so expensive?" Colonel Wang couldn't help but complain on the spot with an uncomfortable face, Gu Cheng smiled and didn't answer his words, this kind of next-generation scientific and technological product is not something that can be supplied by the contemporary economic base, so it is directly reflected in the incomparably expensive.

After a while, Gu Cheng said with a smile: "Wait a few more years, when the moon base is successfully built, the productivity and means of production are abundant, not to mention the price of cabbage, there is no pressure on the Air Force to equip dozens of planes." ”

Colonel Wang didn't answer him either.

Having said that, but when will it have to wait, it's not okay, but if you have it, you can't have this kind of equipment because of financial problems, how uncomfortable it is.

"Let's take a look at the cockpit and the passenger cabin." After a while, Gu Cheng said with a smile.

"Forget it, don't look at it, don't look at it, out of sight and out of mind, the more you watch, the more greedy you are, the more uncomfortable you are, and the more you worry." Colonel Wang put on a wry smile and put his hands on it, stayed in the cargo hold area for a while, and then got off the Sky Blade spaceship.

Gu Cheng couldn't cry or laugh, he really didn't mean to torture people.

At the same time, Li Peng and others followed Leah to the cabin area of the spacecraft, the huge spacecraft has a complete set of internal life support system, the spacecraft is mainly used to carry equipment and materials, and the personnel load can carry about 300 people at a time, which is equivalent to the capacity of a passenger plane, but as a spaceship, it is also quite amazing.

Li Peng followed his sign to the No. 6 independent cabin, which can accommodate 12 people in one cabin, which is actually a cylindrical space with a height of 3 meters, with no beds, seats underneath, and 12 hangers on the top.

At this time, Li Peng untied the bag he had brought, took out a sleeping bag from it and hung it on one of the hanging bags, and after a while other colleagues also came in.

"It's not like what I imagined, haha, does it feel like a bat is hanging upside down?"

"Science fiction movies can't be trusted!"

"The moon voyage lasted for a week, and we just slept hanging like this, I don't know what it was like."

Li Peng chatted with a few colleagues for a while, and then tried to sit in his seat for a while, and when the spacecraft lifted off from gravity, everyone would be like him, fixing themselves in their respective seats to withstand the overload.

After a while, Li Peng left the lounge and walked around the interior of the spacecraft, the internal space is basically cylindrical, this is because the cylindrical space can reach the highest level of utilization of the space itself, and it is the same principle as the space station, as a spaceship, space is a very precious and limited resource.

The feeling given to Li Peng by the Sky Blade spacecraft is that it is not only a means of transportation, but also a work of art, a combination of all high-tech and sophisticated technologies, especially the various high-end equipment inside the spacecraft, which has both technology and aesthetics.

It still adheres to the concept that appearance is proportional to performance.

The cockpit of the Skyblade is not in the center, but at the front of the ship, which is designed to facilitate visual flight, which is important for starships that need to land frequently.

After all, it is positioned as a non-military transport vehicle.

In the evening, a large number of transport trucks loaded with supplies from the Tianqing Industrial Zone arrived at the air base, and at this moment, a large number of glow sticks were flashing in the open-air parking area of the Sky Blade spaceship, and only professionals could understand the information represented in them.

At this time, Li Peng was not idle, he drove a six-wheel drive lunar rover from the tail module into the cargo compartment inside the spacecraft, drove into the designated elevator according to the command of other colleagues above, and after a while, he started the lunar rover again and entered the No. 2 cargo compartment on the top floor to park, fixed the lunar rover, and with the feedback information from the system to confirm, he left with peace of mind.

Li Peng drove up five lunar rovers, each of which weighed 13 tons, carried six people, and was powered not by fossil fuels, but by an integrated power system, which was a second-generation isotope energy core.

The rest of the team were not idle, and everyone did their part, carrying food, liquid nitrogen, liquid oxygen, mechanical equipment, electronic instruments, and some carbonylene alloy materials and many other materials into the cargo hold of the spacecraft in an orderly manner.

This adds up to 1108 tons.

"Hey, wait, isn't that a supply for the Tianzhou space along the way?"

"Yes."

"Then put it aside, the materials of the moon will be sent to the inner compartment first, and the materials of Tianzhou will be placed on the edge of the outer cabin, and you can't take it out if you put it inside."

"Anyway, there is no one else who takes advantage of the space bureau, saying that they will help carry a little material to Tianzhou by the way, and they will directly throw 55 tons of things over for you, and they call 55 tons of things a little?"

"There's no way, let's do a favor and carry it up, the National Aviation Administration can have more than a billion freight left, and the cost of rocket transportation is there."

"Haha, I finally understand why the Air China will be so enthusiastic to share the information on the far side of the moon with us, it seems that this will definitely not be the last, our boss has already taken the soft hands of others, and he can't refuse the rhythm."
