Doomsday Super Merchant

Chapter 300 Epoch-making technological research and development

The emergence of the Bird's Nest aircraft carrier has given people more ideas, and it will be of immeasurable value to the Chamber of Commerce's future strategies and tactics.

Of course, it is not difficult for Tulong to be satisfied with such a huge size, but it can only carry less than 200 various types of fighters, bombers, and armed helicopters. Think about it, a super surface aircraft carrier is only less than 300 meters long and less than 40 meters wide.

, it can carry more than a hundred fighters. The Bird's Nest aircraft carrier is more than three times larger than it, but it has not made much progress in carrying it. This is something Tulong is very dissatisfied with.

Therefore, the new airship-type aircraft carrier design has become one of the primary goals of Dragon Slaying.

The strategic department also has a strong interest in airship-type aircraft carriers. After a group of people gathered together to discuss, a new aircraft carrier with a twin airship structure began to be proposed and entered into a feasible design. It will integrate the technological power currently possessed by the Chamber of Commerce.

Each department provided top authorities to form the aircraft carrier design department and began to design this globally positioned strategic weapon.

The project codenamed Xiaoniao certainly aroused Zhou Yuanqiang's interest. Although he didn't know much about this aspect, he still stepped in and personally served as the leader of the design team.

There is no other way. Who dares to be the team leader if he is the president and not the team leader? However, the best thing about Zhou Yuan is that he will never point fingers at what he does not understand, but will leave it to more professional people.

Do it. Although he is the team leader, he also has three deputy team leaders, who are the backbone leaders of the entire design team. Zhou Yuanqiang is just interested in knowing what their design will look like. Although the design will eventually be completed

It's in his own hands, but Zhou Yuanqiang just likes to enjoy the process of watching them perfect it little by little.

The Xiaoniao Design Team has been extremely large since the beginning, with more than 200 elites from various departments gathering together to start the design.

The new airship aircraft carrier, as its name suggests, uses two airships as its main structure, with upper and lower decks erected in the middle of them. In fact, the role of the two airships is to serve as the piers of the pontoon bridge. This use,

It can handle the huge load capacity of the airship very well. Its double deck provides twice the carrying capacity of fighter planes and reasonable utilization of various areas. From the beginning, its carrying capacity has reached an astonishing 600 aircraft of various types.

Fighter-like aircraft.

Such a huge new airship aircraft carrier is definitely the largest flyover in human history.

The only thing that cannot be solved now is what kind of power is used to propel such a huge thing? If the air force's fighter engine is used, this is simply unrealistic. From an aerodynamic point of view, if we want to make this

To reach a speed of 70 kilometers per hour, at least hundreds of engines must be working at the same time.

The amount of fuel consumed by a fighter jet's engine in one hour is astonishing. The consumption of hundreds of engines is not in the interests of the Chamber of Commerce at all. It is conceivable that if the propulsion power of hundreds of engines is used, at least one hour will be consumed.

With seventy or eighty tons of aviation fuel, it will be enough for the entire airship aircraft carrier to simply carry aviation fuel, and nothing else can be done.

Therefore, the Little Bird Design Team first assigned the Chamber of Commerce Engine Company the task of developing a new engine.

After receiving the task letter signed by the chairman of the Xiaoniao design team, the entire engine company had to stop other engine research and focus on this. However, developing new engine technology is not a trivial matter.

What's more, it is very difficult to propel such a huge thing and meet the technical requirements of low consumption.

In the past, aircraft carriers could use nuclear energy to provide more powerful power, and a one-time replenishment would be enough for surface aircraft carriers to run all over the world.

The Chamber of Commerce has established a Department of Nuclear Energy, but this newly established department only has a few people. If you count on them, you will not get any benefits from the Department of Nuclear Energy until two or three years. It can be said that using nuclear energy as an engine

There is currently no use for fuel.

It's just a new kind of energy that suddenly entered the eyes of the engine company. This is crystallized energy.

Crystallized energy can be said to be ever-changing. The key is how you extract its energy and what method you use to use it. For example, its use in electrical energy and biological energy has an absolutely huge impact on people's thinking.

Yes, no one thought that a small amount of crystallized energy could perform such miraculous things.

Regarding the engine company's issues, Huang Changnian, who is from the Crystallization Research Institute, is of course the most influential. As for whether crystallized energy can be used as an energy source for thrusters, he made it very clear after perfecting several of his previous experiments.

, Crystallized energy is actually an energy source that can be compared with nuclear energy. Super thrusters can be designed and manufactured based on crystallized energy. More importantly, through special fission, crystallized energy can also provide lasting power.

Prior to this, Huang Changnian had carried out experimental research on the application of crystallized energy in machinery. The results showed that crystallization, a new type of energy, can indeed replace all fuel. What is even more terrifying is that it can use special

Fission devices, like nuclear energy, provide huge energy.

Compared with nuclear energy, crystallized energy is not polluting at all and can be called green energy.

Now Huang Changnian doesn't know whether this catastrophe for mankind is good or bad. If it is bad, it may be the death of a large number of human beings, almost extinct. If it is good, it may be this small crystal.

Its emergence, as I said before, is absolutely epoch-making and changes the entire scientific and technological process of mankind.

Huang Changnian has every reason to believe that he has only studied the tip of the iceberg of crystallized energy, and there is more that he can explore.

After receiving Huang Changnian's reply, the design and development department of the engine company immediately started the design. In the past, it was purely an energy problem that could not be solved. Now there is a green super energy source such as crystallization, which can sustain the super thruster in the design for one hour.

For its work, all it requires is a very small amount of crystallized fission energy, which is completely in line with the global strategic goals of the new airship.

Once the engine company has overcome this problem, the new propeller can of course be used normally, and it also gives the Birdie design team a definite answer.

In fact, the Xiaoniao design team did not stop because of the engine problem. Instead, they optimized the deck of the new airship aircraft carrier, trying to make every place reasonably designed and maximized. No one in the design team had such a problem.

On the one hand, the experience is completely to cross the river by feeling the stones, and we can only use the deck of the surface aircraft carrier as a reference object.

However, the length of the deck of the new airship-type aircraft carrier is only 100 meters different from that of the airship used as a bridge pier, reaching 860 meters. The width reaches more than 600 meters due to the bridge-pier structure.

Different from surface aircraft carriers, the flight deck of airship-type aircraft carriers does not need to be slightly tilted. Compared with the 520-meter runway of the Bird's Nest aircraft carrier, the Bird Design Team redesigned it and believed that the previous 520 meters was a complete waste.

.Because the airship-type aircraft carrier can fly at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, even if there is no runway, fighter jets can directly break away from the aircraft carrier and start flying in the air.

The direct function of the deck is not to take off, but to recover fighter aircraft. Therefore, the 250-meter runway can fully meet this requirement.

Then, after a series of optimizations, the number of fighters carried can be greatly increased. It is completely feasible to carry more than 600 fighters, and it will even exceed this number when it is finalized. However,

The hy-2 fighter is not a specialized attack aircraft, so the Flight Design and Research Department of the Chamber of Commerce also needs to design and manufacture a brand new attack aircraft for airship-type aircraft carriers, a bomber suitable for aircraft carriers.

Now Zhou Yuanqiang finally understands why aircraft carriers are a large combination of military technology. Almost every component represents a brand-new technology integration and research and development.

Not only the engines need to be specially developed, but also the fighter planes. The following specialized radar systems, attack missile systems, defensive missile systems, ground defense systems, air defense systems, etc. all require new design and research.

Improve the survivability and combat capabilities of airship-type aircraft carriers.

Like aircraft carriers, they all need to have safety ships guarding them at close range, and airship-type aircraft carriers are no exception.

Theoretically speaking, it has ten times more air and ground defense capabilities than a surface aircraft carrier, as well as ten times more missile attack capabilities. With a huge number of attack aircraft, it is impossible for any fighter plane to break through and get close to an airship-type aircraft carrier. But for

Just in case, it was equipped with six warships and airships, guarding it in six directions, front, rear, left, right, top and bottom, forming its last line of defense.

The entire design plan, after allocating all the available manpower of the entire chamber of commerce, is undoubtedly progressing at a rapid pace. By the time the design is completed, the zombie offensive on the entire wasteland front is coming to an end, and modern huge aviation

With the support of bombs, the air force's bombing became the main lethality, which was enough to crush the zombies' fourth offensive.

Although there are still nearly ten million zombies on the front line, they have also broken through the first front line and are approaching the second front line.

However, the second front line is 5 meters high, which is not comparable to the first front line. So they can only swarm onto the wall of the front line and be completely blocked. Tens of millions of zombies look like a lot, but they are scattered.

On the front line of hundreds of kilometers, it becomes sporadic and has no threatening power.

The battle lasted for nearly a month, and the soldiers were already exhausted. As for the zombies that bared their teeth and claws outside the wall every day, the soldiers felt like vomiting when they saw them. This kind of vomiting was not because of their disgusting appearance.

Vomiting, and seeing them irritated and disgusting.

Anyone who has been fighting them for more than a month and facing disgusting faces every day will feel tired.

The armistice on the eastern front gave the Chamber of Commerce time to relax. With the level 1 war state cancelled, all factories and companies returned to normal. Transport airships were again fully loaded with cargo, heading towards the routes they had stopped before.

.The difference is that this time the transport airships have specialized fighter planes patrolling the routes to ensure their flight safety.

The cessation of trade for more than a month has affected not only the chamber of commerce, but also the settlements that have accepted colorful coins as currency, and the impact is even greater.

In the hands of many people, all the crystals have been exchanged for colorful coins. If trade is interrupted for more than a month, anyone will feel uneasy. Is this Yuanqiang Chamber of Commerce lazy? Will they run away after getting crystals? Or is this Yuanqiang Chamber of Commerce lazy?

The Chamber of Commerce was captured by zombies and became history from then on? Or...

Yes, no one is not worried. After all, too many people already have interests and are linked to the Yuanqiang Chamber of Commerce.

The reason why there is no panic is also due to the fact that the Chamber of Commerce offices are still working normally and have not been evacuated. Otherwise, the situation is really hard to predict, and chaos would have been caused in various settlements.

It can be seen that the status of Yuanqiang Chamber of Commerce has penetrated into the hearts of people in various settlements. The circulation and issuance of colorful coins has firmly tied these settlements to the chariot of the Chamber of Commerce. Although the soft knife of the Chamber of Commerce is still

It has not reached maturity yet, but with the current development speed, can it be far behind?

Just the issuance and circulation of a currency brings to the chamber of commerce, but it does not require war to obtain everything the chamber of commerce needs. This is the power of the soft knife.

The use of crystallized energy is a mechanical breakthrough, which is like opening a valve and opening a new door of science and technology to mankind. The research on crystallized engines, first of all, is the airship-style aircraft carrier super thruster, with this breakthrough

, the aerospace engine company tried to apply this technology to ordinary fighter aircraft.

Unfortunately, the direct utilization of crystallized energy is less than one percent. It can only provide huge energy after fission through special processing. The fission device is very complex. Although it is not as good as the fission device of nuclear energy, it is not far behind.

Even after nearly a century of research, human beings have not been able to reduce the huge size. It is far from being achieved by the current aero-engine companies.

But this is after all a goal set by humans. At least if you have a goal, you will have hope. It just takes time.

There is no need to worry about leakage of crystallized energy, resulting in pollution and radiation. Its greenness and energy efficiency no less than that of nuclear energy determine its irreplaceable role. Especially from super thrusters, it has given aerospace engine companies

Enough inspiration to start developing vertical lift thrusters, we also formally submitted the feasibility proposal for a large air transport aircraft to the Aircraft Design and Research Department to solve the current problem of the chamber of commerce transporting airships needing to be escorted.

The current crystalline engine can only be used for large air targets, which means that this large air transport aircraft will be a giant transport aircraft. Its vertical take-off capability will make it out of the scope of traditional transport aircraft.

The key is that the vertical thruster can work all the time, like a pallet, suspending it in the air like an airship.

There is no doubt that if this kind of transport aircraft appears, it will indeed bring greater military value to the Air Force. At the same time, it can be applied to fighter aircraft to create giant fighters.

All of this is just the goal of the design, and there is still a long way to go to achieve this. But as long as the mind is open and there is a fulcrum to support all of this, is it still a long way from being fully designed and manufactured?

Crystallization is not limited to this, it is like the fission method of nuclear energy, which instantly increases the energy tens of thousands of times, making its price infinitely expand, completely replacing the status of nuclear energy.

As the newly established Strategic Weapons Research Department, of course it was impossible to let go of this discovery. They had already begun to study some technologies for nuclear weapons. Now the fissionability of crystallized energy naturally made them ecstatic, and on several occasions

Through experiments, the controllability and instantaneous release of crystalline energy fission have met the needs of strategic-level weapons. It is completely possible to abandon the research of nuclear weapons and develop this new type of crystallized strategic-level weapons.

The problems plaguing Qingyuan City’s power generation are just like the emergence of crystalline energy. Its fissionability has also led to preparations for the first crystalline energy power plant. Its green and environmental protection means that it can form more reaction systems.

, so that this crystalline energy power plant can provide all the electronic needs of the entire Qingyuan City and Tianzhou City, and there is still a lot of surplus.

If nothing unexpected happens, the power transmission industry will become the next most important profit point for the Chamber of Commerce.

You must know that there are only a few settlements in Lianlanxi Plateau that can use electricity. Even if there is electricity, it is very limited. At night, it is still dark. As a Yuanqiang Chamber of Commerce that started as a business, how could this be possible?

Will they give up this hugely profitable industry?

Not to mention other more backward settlements, which have been in an almost primitive society for several years, do you expect them to have access to electricity?

The original secret of crystallization can be said to have been completely discovered now. With the discovery of technology, there will definitely be more and more industries that can apply it, and its influence on mankind will also be greater.

The stronger.

But the fatal point of crystallization is that it is less durable than petroleum. It is limited and will one day be used up.

Each crystal represents a zombie. The billions of zombies in the world can only provide billions of crystals of various levels and types. They are scattered around the world and are controlled by countless forces. Communication is not clear, and

With the existence of zombies, no one knows what the outside world is like. Maybe forces from other countries have also figured out the secrets of using crystals?

It is impossible for anyone to know all this. It is like a mystery and needs to be explored bit by bit.

The importance of crystals forces the Chamber of Commerce to list the collection of crystals as the first strategic goal. But even if you hold billions of crystals around the world in your hands, how many years can the consumption of various industries be sustained? Is it decades, or is it

Hundreds of years? When the time comes, humans who are accustomed to this crystallized energy will fall into what kind of chaos if they lose this energy?

Of course Huang Changnian understood that, so the first task of the Crystallization Research Institute was no longer to develop the applicability of crystallized energy, but to study the feasibility of workers manufacturing crystallized energy.
