The ion engine has not been studied in Xia Guo, but it was later found that with the current technology, it cannot achieve the expected efficiency.

Later, the Supreme Scientific Research Institute of Xia Kingdom gave up the project.

And now what Zhou Wen said undoubtedly ignited hope in everyone's hearts.

If a mature ion engine is really built, then the next step will be to build a lunar base on the moon.

As soon as the elder group heard Zhou Wen say this, they immediately walked to his side.

"Xiaowen, you can do it boldly, just mention it to us if there is anything missing in the future."

"Yes, can you adapt to the Great Northwest Base recently?"

"That's right, as long as you ask, we old men will try to accommodate you."

A group of people gathered around Zhou Wen, and none of them took the initiative to say anything to Zhou Wen, but they cared about his daily life everywhere.

This once made Zhou Wen feel a little embarrassed, most of them didn't know each other.

It seems that the last time I heard that some people in the elder group had some opinions about themselves, why did they have a different attitude today than he thought?

Zhou Wen even felt that he was going to say that he lacked a girlfriend, and they would introduce the juniors in the family to him the next day.

"Let someone test fly!"

Several air force commanders were eager to fly on the Qiulong fighter plane.

When they came, they brought a few ace pilots in the army, in order to experience the specific performance of the Qiulong fighter.

Jiang Yuanyi asked Cheng Linfei, who was accompanying him, to lead the six ace pilots to the other hangars, while the others were taken to the observation platform outside the command to watch.

"Chief Engineer Zhou, this nuclear battery is mounted on the plane..."

"Does it mean ...."

Lin Yuhang, commander-in-chief of the Air Force, leaned in front of Zhou Wen and asked in a whisper.

Originally, he planned to ask Academician Jiang, but at this time, Academician Jiang was reporting to the elders, and he couldn't intervene in the past.

Zhou Wen knew that what he wanted to ask was the issue of the fighter's endurance.

"yes, that's what you think."

"After the fighter is equipped with a nuclear battery, as long as the other parts are not damaged, it can basically continue to operate."

The fighter R&D center has simulated and calculated this problem, and the fighter can maintain normal operation for 5 years under normal flight without entering supersonic speed.

As for why it can only be operated for five years, the main reason is the aging of some parts inside the aircraft, as well as electrical problems.

So it doesn't mean that the fighter doesn't need to be repaired and maintained after being equipped with a nuclear battery.

It's just that the number of repairs and maintenance is much reduced compared to before.

If they really want to keep the fighters running, it depends on whether they can go one step closer in materials science.

"This..."

Lin Yuhang opened his mouth and didn't say a word for a long time.

The energy provided by nuclear batteries can be said to be endless, but to put this kind of thing on a fighter plane....

The fact that a fighter plane can fly without refueling sounds amazing.

He didn't even dare to think about it just now.

Of course, Zhou Wen said that he also understood the problem.

After all, even if a fighter is equipped with a nuclear battery, it cannot be repaired or maintained.

However, with the performance of long-term combat, their fighters can achieve ultra-long-distance combat once they take off.

Even if they fight with Eagle Sauce in the back, Xia Guo's fighters can fly to their airspace for the first time with a speed of Mach 5.

It can even have bombers and warplanes act together to carry out homegrown bombing.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Navy and the Commander-in-Chief of the Army on the side heard what Zhou Wen said, and their eyes lit up.

"Zhou boy, tell me when you plan to sell this nuclear battery?"

"That's right! How long will it take? "

Wu Haitao, commander-in-chief of the Navy, is definitely the most concerned about this matter.

If the army wants to put all tanks, armored vehicles and other transport vehicles on nuclear batteries, then the number is absolutely staggering.

And for him, the number of warships and aircraft carriers is definitely less than that of the army.

Every year, they consume the most fuel of the three armies.

Every time he saw the amount of fuel burned, he felt his heart bleed.

Now with nuclear batteries, they can use this energy source for almost thousands of years with a simple modification of their warships and aircraft carriers.

How could this not make him impressed?

And the most crucial point is that in the future, when he is engaged in naval battles, he does not need to worry about his fleet being hit by the opponent at the oil depot and causing a fire.

This is simply one less weakness for their navy!

"The first generation of nuclear batteries has been developed, but the cost is still too expensive."

"Later, I will ask Academician Chen to develop a nuclear battery specifically for the equipment of the navy, land and air force."

Zhou Wen believes that if all warplanes, tanks, and warships use one type of nuclear battery, it will be too wasteful.

Including the exoskeleton armor on the side of military technology... It is also impossible to use a nuclear battery that costs 300,000 units.

So he talked to Uncle Chen about this at that time.

In the future, they will make three types of nuclear batteries.

Small nuclear batteries are provided to the army's tanks, armored vehicles and other equipment for use, and the subsequent nuclear batteries of this type can also be converted to civilian use.

Medium-sized nuclear batteries are used to provide energy for fighter and transport aircraft, while large-scale nuclear batteries are used to provide energy for large facilities such as bases, warships, and aircraft carriers.

"Great! Remember to notify me when it's developed! "

Army Ge Wenrui knew that he needed the most quantity, and the first batch of production would not necessarily give them to the army at that time.

Therefore, it is very important to have a good relationship with Zhou Wen at this time.

The two commanders on the side tugged at the corners of their mouths, feeling very helpless about this guy's behavior.

Zhou Wen had no choice but to put on his signature smile in the face of this enthusiasm.

However, when he saw the commander of the navy, he suddenly remembered the technology behind him, and he planned to tell him his thoughts.

"Commander Wu, we may not specialize in studying the equipment of the navy in the future."
