578. Rocket launch

By this time, the month-long exchange visit between the two sides had come to an end, and the first round of negotiations on the trade agreement had come to an end for the time being.

Some consensus has been reached, but no final results have been reached.

After Saratoga's debriefing, the USN Senate authorized Shangri-La to organize a trade mission to the Northern Islands to begin a second round of negotiations.

Liaoning arranged for a modified aircraft carrier to serve as an ambassador to the USN, leaving a few modified ship wives as general diplomats to handle daily affairs.

The commercial staff sent by Xingang are responsible for the daily operations of NORINCO.

Then Liaoning, Shenzhen and other delegations, as well as delegations from the Western Islands such as Hood, Richelieu, Bismarck, Veneto, and Akagi, took a plane back to Xingang together.

The ocean-going carrier was escorted back to the Northern Islands by an escort fleet.

That night, Mu Feng received the ship girls who had been separated for a month at Xingang Airport, and arranged a banquet again in the evening to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the delegation.

Because they had been away for a month, early the next morning, the high-level representatives of the Western Islands and IJN left by plane.

The second round of negotiations on the trade agreement began, and Mu Feng continued his daily scientific research work.

Four days later.

That is, the 37th day of the signing of the exploration restriction agreement between the two parties.

Mu Feng began to be busy with scientific research on the 23rd day.

Day 10 of the development of the GT50000 gas turbine inter-cooling and reheating version.

Mu Feng, who exploded his liver in the scientific research center, completed the last R&D test and received a system prompt:

"GT50000 gas turbine upgrade project, the third phase of the target has been completed, and the 'GT25000ICR' gas turbine design drawings have been generated."

Mu Feng leaned back in the chair and let out a long breath, since most of the time, he started to engage in scientific research by himself, as long as he has time, he basically pounces on scientific research.

I often work 12 hours a day, and after becoming proficient, the speed of scientific research is getting faster and faster.

It only took more than 20 days to complete the comprehensive upgrade of the gas turbine.

Mu Feng looked at the data of the gas turbine: GT50000ICR gas turbine, the module size is 12×4×6, and the output power is 80,000 kilowatts (108,800 horsepower).

Then when I closed my eyes and thought about who to try it out, the system came with two prompts.

"The Long March 11 restoration project has been completed, and the design drawings of the 'Long March 11 Modified and Promoted Version' solid-fuel launch vehicle have been generated."

"The first phase of the project to build a machine to transform satellites has been completed, and the design drawings of the 'New Remote Sensing' series of observation and communication satellites have been generated."

Mu Feng stood up suddenly, and looked back at the surrounding Yuanwang 7, Great Wall 201, Neptune, and Sirius all stood up.

Yuanwang No. 7 walked to Mu Feng:

"Commander, the rocket and satellite projects are complete, the rest of the time is a little tight, let's produce them as soon as possible and prepare for launch!"

Mu Feng nodded seriously:

"Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work......"

Mu Feng said in his mouth, went over and hugged the four of them in turn, and then turned around and said:

"I'll arrange production now, and then I'll go over tomorrow to debug, and the day after tomorrow, we will carry out the first launch mission on the space island, and then the seventh sister will need to control the whole process."

Yuanwang Seven nodded:

"No problem, it's my old job."

Next to the Great Wall 201 smiled and said:

"I shouldn't be needed for rocket launches, and then I can concentrate on the research and development of missiles and nuclear submarines, which is my old job."

Neptune followed suit:

"The research and development of rockets has provided a lot of experience for the research and development of missiles, and our new generation of submarine-launched missiles should be completed soon."

Sirius said:

"The next key task is the brilliant radiation!"

Mu Feng nodded seriously:

"I understand, you go and rest first, and then leave it to me."

Mu Feng urged the four people of Yuanwang No. 7 to rest, and he went to the manufacturing center in Xingang first, and chose two manufacturing equipment to continue to produce GT50000ICR gas turbines.

Six manufacturing facilities were then selected to continue the production of the new series of remote sensing satellites that had been completed.

Then I took a plane to a specialized rocket and missile production base.

This base, far from the center of Newport City, was already under construction at the beginning of the nuclear submarine mission, and was fully completed more than ten days ago.

There are a total of 8 sets of specialized production equipment here, which can produce strategic missiles and rockets at the same time.

Mufeng set up a set of production tasks for each of the 8 sets of equipment.

Rockets and strategic missiles are the same, not only does it take a long time to produce, but they are also disposable, and after launch, this piece of equipment is gone.

Now it seems that the preparation process of rockets and strategic missiles is much more complicated than ordinary equipment, and the general equipment of the ship is basically ten minutes to two small.

And this rocket will take six hours to produce.

Of course, the slow is only relative to the equipment of other ships, and it is more than an order of magnitude faster than the rocket production speed on the earth.

In the evening of the same day, all 8 rockets were produced, and Mufeng went to the production center again to put the completed rockets into the system space, so that the equipment could continue to produce the second batch of 8 rockets.

The next morning, the first batch of 64 satellites produced by Newport was completed.

Mu Feng took the satellite, gathered Yuanwang 7, Sirius, Neptune, Crimson, Qingyu and others, and took a plane to the space island together.

Mu Feng and the ship's wives commanded the construction of the machine, loaded the artificial satellite into the last stage of the rocket, and then fixed the three rockets to the rocket launcher.

The Long March 11, which was lying on the ground, was significantly longer than the original.

Because this planet is much larger than the Earth, with a radius of 9,555 kilometers, more than 3,000 kilometers more than the Earth, and the volume is 4 times that of the Earth, the first cosmic velocity is 9.1km/s.

Therefore, when the rocket is designed, it cannot be directly copied from the Long March 11, but on the basis of the Long March 11, the size is increased, and the thrust and carrying capacity are increased at the same time.

The weight of the new remote sensing satellites, which are built with machines as the core and transformed by adding functional modules, is much lighter than that of normal satellites, and the weight of each satellite is only more than 50 kilograms.

The Long March 11 has been upgraded and launched, which can put eight of these artificial satellites into an orbit of 500 kilometers on the ground at a time.

Tests of rockets and satellites have already been completed on scientific research equipment.

Now what needs to be confirmed is that there should be no problems during the installation process, and there will be no problems.

After a full day of repeated checks, the calculations were repeatedly confirmed to ensure that there were no problems.

The next morning, Yuanwang VII and Sirius, escorted by the escort fleet led by Aoba, unfurled their hulls in the sea off the space island, ready to observe and transmit news.

At eight o'clock in the morning, after checking again that everything was correct, the rocket officially stood up.

The mothers of the ships who have no tasks on the space island come to the launch command room, and the ships outside the space island watch the situation of the scene through the data link.

The launch console is a set of scientific equipment, and Neptune sits in front of it, keeping in touch with Yuanwang 7 and Sirius.

Mu Feng sat next to Neptune and looked at the big screen in front of him.

On the big screen there are the current status and data of planets, satellites, suns, rockets, satellites, as well as launch countdowns.

There are still monitored construction machines on the launch site, and before launching, until the last second, the launch can be stopped whenever someone notices a problem.

When the last ten seconds of the countdown remained, Neptune began to count down with a serious face:

"10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-1 launch!"
