Chapter 212 The shocking oversized space shuttle
With the official establishment of the Eastern Bloc, the entire huge China seems to have entered a period of industrial outbreak, and various factories are working overtime, especially those companies related to the Eastern Bloc, as if they have taken medicine.
At the same time, the headquarters of the Eastern Group began to be established in Shanhai City. However, the headquarters building only allocated a budget of 100 million yuan, which is really small for such a huge group that gathers one-tenth of the wealth of China! But no one has an opinion, and more wealth is used where it is really useful. The construction of the real room, the factory, and even a fifth-generation nuclear power plant that will belong entirely to the Eastern Bloc is also under intense construction.
The use of the Dream aircraft and the large amount of nuclear fuel delivered back from the moon made the planning of the fifth-generation nuclear power plant beyond imagination. There are a total of 50 units in the plan, of which three are used for emergency use with a traditional small power of 600,000 (kWh). The next is 20 units of 1.7 million kWh, and the rest are all super-large units with a single power of 2 million or even 2.5 million that have entered the final stage of research and development. Such a unit, with only a rotor of 60 meters long and a diameter of 8 meters, is a giant. The value is equal to the same weight of silver.
However, no one pays attention to such a heavy technology today, because the Rise of the Master Company's space shuttle finally held a semi-public test today!
The reason why it is semi-public means that only high-level companies, state personnel, and people related to the Eastern Bloc can visit, and everything else is prohibited. However, it is not forbidden to take pictures, and it can even be uploaded online with the appropriate confidentiality of the core number. Anyway, once the test flight is carried out, it is impossible for such a behemoth to be kept secret in today's world. It is conservatively estimated that there are at least three satellites watching at all times in the sky above the master company.
It's not the first time I've seen it, but it's all in the production process before. Today, in the sun, looking at this behemoth, although not the largest aircraft, crazy ground effect aircraft are capable of reaching a scale of 200 meters. However, this is the largest space shuttle.
With the breakthrough of technology, Western countries have now begun to gradually produce space shuttles, relying on the K01 engine of the master company, the new generation of space shuttles in the United States has flown into the sky.
Although Huaxia still firmly grasps the initiative, it has not seen any major development in recent years, and foreign countries are advancing rapidly, which makes many people worried. Fortunately, today, the master company, which has been silent for two years, has once again launched a new model, once again breaking the common sense of the world!
The Space Shuttle has since entered the era of 1,000 tons!
Dongfang Ying was in high spirits and introduced the parameters of the aircraft to hundreds of top experts from all over the country. "After repeated revisions, the final Space Shuttle Rise was 121 meters long, 100.3 meters wide, 21.54 meters high, with a dead weight of 720 tons and a safe load of 630 tons. However, because the aerodynamic performance design is reasonable, the atmospheric buoyancy can be used when taking off, so theoretically the limit take-off will eventually reach 1500 tons, excluding the self-weight, the ultimate load is 780 tons. Carrying 400 million kWh, 9 engines work at full power, which can reach 24 hours. At its limit, it is possible to make a round trip between the ground and low-earth orbit in two hours, including dwell time, loading time, etc.
The maximum acceleration is 3 times the gravity, and the maximum speed in the atmosphere is about 4 times the speed of sound; There is no limit to the speed of space.
Three driving modes are adopted, one is fully automatic plus ground control, and the technology is not very mature. The second is fully automatic plus driver, which is the most mature technology. The third type is fully manual or semi-mechanical automatic control, which is the control of the state of emergency. ”
"What is the skeleton of an airplane made of? It didn't even break? An old expert asked.
"Hello, it is a special alloy developed by the master company itself. Because of the pursuit of toughness, the hardness is about 95, which is comparable to the toughness of ordinary steel. ”
"What about the control system? It is said that the control of the master company is different, I don't know how the current rise is? Another expert asked.
"It's a 3D binary programming that's already very mature."
"Dongfang Chief Engineer, I have a question," another expert came over, "your aerodynamic performance design is not very good, if the design is very good, it can fully achieve the thrust-to-weight ratio of ten to one, or even more, in this way, the load of the aircraft will not be more?" ”
Looking at the person in front of him, it is obvious that he is the so-called "brick family" and not an expert, but the person who can get here is definitely not a simple person, Dongfang Ying still explained, "There are two reasons. The first is that when the plane returns to the atmosphere, the speed is extremely fast, even reaching 20-30 times the speed of sound, and at such a speed, if the wing is too large, it will inevitably break. So, the wing area had to be reduced.
The second point is that the space shuttle is not an aviation aircraft. The so-called thrust-to-weight ratio of aviation aircraft relies heavily on atmospheric buoyancy. By the time the space shuttle entered the sky, the air was already extremely thin and difficult to borrow. At this time, the only thing that can be relied on is the thrust of the engine. Therefore, there is a limit to the safety limit load. ”
"Taught!" This person respectfully bowed his hand, but there is such a thing.
There is a heated discussion here, and ahead, the huge space shuttle is undergoing the final inspection, and more than 1,000 inspections are meticulous, even if the uneven paint on the landing gear is a strict problem. There are only two differences in the inspection process: pass and fail; To be exact, there are only two possibilities: perfect score and fail, and there is no such thing as a so-called excellent review.
The huge aircraft has entered its final test - the balance test. With the assistance of a huge crane, just a thick wire rope dropped the plane in mid-air, completely maintaining its balance!
"Acceptance is complete, qualified!" The quality inspector submitted a thick, but well-organized inspection report. Each inspection step is followed by the seal of the person in charge, and once a problem occurs, it will be directly held accountable to the individual. Such a strict work style has allowed the master company to maintain a high-speed development.
"Knock ......" heavy footsteps came. A "young man" in a spacesuit came with his head held high, the slightly bloated spacesuit as if it did not pose a single obstacle to him, and his right hand wrapped around his helmet. This person, most people know, that is Mu Xinghai, who was once dug up by a master company at any cost!
"Sea of Stars!" A major general officer who looked to be thirty-five or sixteen years old who came with the national team looked at Mu Xinghai in front of him with a surprised expression, and he was a little afraid to recognize him.
"Oops, Iron Army! Haha, it's really funny that you came to see my flight. Mu Xinghai happily hugged this "Iron Army".
"Xinghai, you look like you're only 25 years old now! Also, I heard that you fly in space every day, I really envy you! It can't be because there are more space flights, but you are younger, right? A hint of envy flashed in Dong Tiejun's eyes.
"Haha, let's wait for the evening to find a time to get together. When the time comes, call all your comrades. Time is a little tight right now, so let's stop here. ”
"Major General Dong is good!" As Mu Xinghai's deputy this time, Liu Haibo saluted his former boss.
"You...... Are you Liu Haibo? Why does it look like you're only in your early 20s? Dong Tiejun was even more curious.
"Hehe......" Mu Xinghai and Liu Haibo looked at each other and smiled, but did not answer.
Looking at Mu Xinghai and the others, they only jumped into the 15-meter-high cab in three or two clicks, without the help of any auxiliary tools, Dong Tiejun was even more curious and envious.
"Stand back, back off! To the back of the bulletproof glass inside the security line! "The security guards at the scene urgently evacuated the crowd. After the simulation test, the behemoth in front of me was not very friendly during the take-off!
"It's time! Ignition! ”
Rumble...... In an instant, there was a loud sound like a landslide, and the powerful shock wave directly cracked the concrete ground behind the plane, and then turned into a cloud of debris.
The plane started slowly, and the violent shock wave from the tail of the engine reduced the runway, which fully meets international standards, into rubble. Some stones hit the bulletproof glass like bullets, and the sound of collisions was endless. Some even screamed in horror.
The earth is shaking, the air is **!
Circles of visible air fluctuations caused the surrounding trees to snap one after another.
It's just the beginning, and it's already so shocking before it takes off!
The golden flame, somewhat dazzling, indicates the temperature of the tail flame, at least 1800 degrees! After the dust flies, the ground is scorching lava!
Time: 13:55:00 on September 3, 2047!
