God of Rebirth Trader

Rested all night.

The next day they left the headquarters of Infinite Company, and under the leadership of Zhao Gong and others, headed for the mountainous area in the southwest hinterland.

He saw several other pilots in the team, all of whom had dark circles under their eyes. They were obviously too excited and had not slept well all night.

The leader's cordial reception made them even more enthusiastic, and they secretly swore in their hearts that they would not hesitate to risk their lives for the sake of their common ideal!

Southwest mountainous area.

The scale of Infinite Company's large-scale equipment manufacturing base shocked all pilots who came here for the first time.

There were soldiers guarding everywhere, and under the air defense net, the looming anti-aircraft gun barrels were pointing towards the sky.

In some flat places, you can see anti-aircraft missiles waiting on launchers.

Every thirty meters, you can see soldiers patrolling, as well as security personnel wearing digital individual equipment, leading wolf dogs around.

According to the personnel accompanying the base, a few years ago, a foreign female spy actually crossed the perimeter cordon and sneaked into the edge of the base.

At that time, it was only thanks to a hidden infrared surveillance camera that we discovered where the other party was hiding.

Just after the opponent finished taking a film, the security personnel rushed over with the wolfdog and shot the opponent before he could escape.

Since it was not known whether the base had been exposed, relevant security measures have been tightened since then.

All persons entering and exiting must undergo multiple identity verifications and retinal comparisons.

To prevent someone from using their identity to sneak in.

After entering the base and the residential area outside the valley, people who came here for the first time were intoxicated by the beautiful environment here.

The air in the mountainous area is fresh and wild flowers are everywhere. Take a breath and your lungs will be filled with the sweet smell.

Entering the checkpoint in the valley, it's a different scene.

Their first impression was that the runway was so long and straight!

In order to verify that the aircraft can take off and land better in the atmosphere, the runway has been lengthened, widened and expanded. The current length is several kilometers longer than the previous data collection aircraft test.

It reached fifteen kilometers.

As the car drove on the roads on both sides of the runway, it was discovered that the runway was almost half a waist higher than the road outside.

Its strength is evident.

On both sides of the mountain wall, there are factory buildings standing, and the roar of machines can be heard.

These factories left outside are now all used for manufacturing aerospace aircraft-related parts.

Dozens of factories all use automated production lines and robot operations to ensure that the accuracy of parts is within the allowable error range.

Only the engine is manufactured at the African base and shipped back to China by ship.

Near the bottom of the valley and near the gate of the mountain base, they saw two extremely large factories.

On the left is the airframe manufacturing plant, which is a special large-scale manufacturing equipment specially transported from the African base to perform one-time molding processing on the airframe.

The one on the right is the final assembly workshop, which also serves as a hangar for the aerospace aircraft.

The total length of the aerospace aircraft is 98 meters, so the two factories are also extremely large, with a span of nearly 300 meters. They are formed by the merger of two factories.

In the final assembly workshop and hangar, they saw the aerospace plane they had seen countless times in their dreams.

In the virtual world, they actually already know the final appearance of the aerospace plane after manufacturing is completed.

But at this moment, looking at the silver-white fuselage and feeling the unique metallic luster, everyone lost control of their emotions and quickly ran towards their cars.

Only when they really stood in front of the aerospace aircraft did they deeply realize how huge this aircraft was.

The fuselage is nearly ten meters high. If it is just a number, they have no intuitive feeling.

But now, standing at the nose of the plane and looking up at the slightly upturned nose, they felt that this guy was so tall.

It's like standing on the ground and looking up at the top of a three-story building.

Looking from the nose to the tail, the long body gradually expands to both sides, resembling a sharp triangle.

The nose of the machine is like an arrow!

The jet pipe at the tail of the aerospace aircraft is as thick as a common cement cylindrical pipe.

The volume of the combined engine occupies one-third of the entire aerospace aircraft. The alloy combination newly developed by Yan Lao is the alloy material used in the final shape of the engine.

Compared with the ten-meter-long data collection machine, each engine only needs to work at full power for dozens of hours before being scrapped.

Using a new type of alloy, the engine produced has a theoretical lifespan of 826 hours and can conduct at least a dozen transatmospheric flights.

If used properly, it can achieve an ideal service life of twenty or thirty times.

In this regard, the cost of using an aerospace plane is much lower than that of a space shuttle.

But despite this, it still fell short of the hundreds of round-trip flights necessary for the utopian plan.

The materials department at the African base is still conducting in-depth research.

Now that they have photonic computers, their research progress has improved rapidly.

But there are still countless formulas that they need to verify.

Some virtual research has clearly produced results, but in order to ensure flight safety, they have to conduct a large number of actual experiments to obtain more accurate and reliable data.

In order to help their research, more than half of the researchers in the materials department of Infinite Company have gone to African bases one after another.

The main direction of research in the materials department that remains in China is more towards commercialization research.

In the middle section of the aerospace plane, there is a cargo compartment composed of opening and closing devices.

The cargo capacity of the aerospace plane has reached 37 tons. Although it is insignificant compared with the weight of the fuselage of more than 100 tons, considering the special shape of the fuselage of the aerospace plane, it is not very suitable for flying in the atmosphere.

.

To break through gravity, there must be enough fuel support.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This cargo data is already very high.

If you want to build a large space station, you will often need to transport hundreds of tons of materials to outer space. Depending on the 37-ton load capacity of the aerospace plane, you will need to fly around more than 20 times.

For this reason, at least two engines of the aerospace plane will be scrapped.

Therefore, people who know about the Utopia plan and have expectations for it know that the aerospace plane only means the first step of the plan.

If you want to establish a base on the moon, in addition to transiting the space station, you also need to transport a large amount of construction materials there.

This inevitably requires the addition of a space shuttle dedicated to Earth-moon flights.

It is still very difficult to achieve this goal.

Interstellar navigation is so difficult.

There are too many unknown things that need people to explore.

Two weeks after Zhang Yan and the others arrived at the base, they began the formal flight test after adequate rest and state adjustment.

Generally speaking, after simulation testing in the virtual world and verification and modification of the data collection machine, the functions of this prototype are sufficiently complete.

However, none of the previous tests were manned tests.

What does it feel like when a pilot actually controls an aerospace aircraft? This needs to be experienced by the pilots themselves.

Each of Zhang Yan and the others wore heavy load-bearing compensation joint space suits, and with the help of the staff, they got into the cockpit.

When an aerospace aircraft accelerates, the overload is extremely high. Without special clothing protection, it would undoubtedly be suicide.

The anti-load compensation joint suit is actually a combination of a variety of special equipment, which have multiple functions such as anti-overload, anti-immersion, cold protection, and space radiation protection.

In a large overload environment, the pressure regulator of the anti-gravity suit will automatically inflate the suit and adjust the air pressure according to the needs of the human body, forcing blood to avoid influx of blood to the lower body and ensuring the normal supply of blood to the head.

To put it bluntly, a space suit creates a pressure-balanced environment in a sealed environment to ensure that the pilot will not be harmed.

Moreover, the space suit also protects the pilot from various rays, micrometeoroids, high and low temperatures in space, and provides oxygen to the astronauts.

The entire joint suit is made of a variety of special materials, and its value is as high as 20 to 30 million yuan!

Zhang Yan and others felt that their bodies were tightly restrained by the joint uniforms and it was very inconvenient to move.

But they also know that this joint suit looks very clumsy in the atmosphere, but when they enter a microgravity environment, it will appear very light.

Aerospace planes are not fighter jets and do not need to stay in the atmosphere for too long. As long as they accelerate, they will start their rocket engines and send them to low orbit.

Their cockpit is also tilted backwards.

This is also to allow pilots to withstand greater loads.

Zhang Yan and other five pilots all went through high-G training for one and a half years, and the maximum G reached ten G!

Under the highest overload condition, only he and the other pilot could maintain a clear mind and control the aerospace aircraft.

Some pilots even fainted directly during high-G simulated flights.

Fortunately, the monitor noticed their physiological dysfunction, quickly stopped the flight simulator, and rushed them to the ambulance department for rescue.

It is precisely after hard training and rigorous simulation exercises that are almost harsh.

Only then did they have the confidence to fly into space with this most advanced aerospace aircraft.

All pilots checked the instruments meticulously.

Although they all know that these instruments have undergone very strict inspections and will never make mistakes, no one will play with their own lives.

From the day they become pilots, they have no right to neglect.

Unless you take your life as a joke!

"Power control room, everything is normal!"

"Instruments in the cabin check normal!"

"The cabin door has been closed, all cabin controls are in control, everything is normal!"

"The life support system is working normally!"

From various working positions of the flight team, the pilots' inspection reports came and rang in Zhang Yan's helmet headset.

To his right, another pilot also completed the inspection and reported to him: "The instruments in the main control room have checked normally! You can take off!"

Zhang Yan checked the LCD screen one last time and found that all the instruments showed normal green lights before turning on the microphone and reporting to the tower:

"The special team of Kongtian No. 1 reported that we are ready, all instruments are operating normally, and we are requesting to enter the runway!"

The tower's voice came from the headset: "The tower received it, all signals are normal, the sound is clear, the runway has been cleared, and entry is allowed."

The hangar door slowly opened to both sides.

A ray of sunlight slanted in from outside the gate, coating the silver-white body with a golden color.

"Today is such a nice weather!"

Zhang Yan pushed down the handle, the fuselage trembled slightly, and the engine started to work.

In front of me is the boundless blue sky.
