Rebirth of science and technology academic master

Chang'an has been prosperous since ancient times. Entering the third decade of the 21st century, Chang'an seems to have returned to the prosperous Chang'an era. Chang'an is famous throughout the country for its never-sleeping city. It is not only home to various ancient buildings, but also famous universities across the country. There are many universities here.

Of course, I have to say that this is one of the centers of China's aerospace industry. Chang'an's pillar industry is the aerospace industry, forming an almost complete aerospace industry chain. Advanced bombers, transport aircraft, and launch vehicles can be manufactured here. , manned spacecraft, satellites, etc., it can be said that it is fully covered with high precision.

In order to support the development of aerospace, Chang'an has a supercomputing center, which houses supercomputers with a computing power of one billion billion times, as well as quantum computers with world-class computing power.

Especially with the completion of the desert control project, the weather and climate are recovering at a speed that is discernible to the naked eye. It is conceivable that within a few years, the environment here will be able to compete with livable cities.

Here, the proportion of state-owned enterprises far exceeds that of other places. Whether it is the aerospace field or the military industry, private enterprises are now unable to compete. Firstly, there is no technology, and secondly, there is not such large capital investment. Private enterprises here Both fields belong to flag-waving roles.

In a huge assembly plant, it is in full swing at this time. The aerospace plane in the middle of the assembly plant has been covered with red cloth, and now the workers are hanging banners and decorating with ribbons.

"Congratulations, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Yang, you have completed the task three months ahead of schedule!" In the assembly factory, Qin Yuanqingzheng said to Yang Yue who was accompanying him, and sent out his blessings.

According to the original time schedule, the aerospace aircraft 'K1' would not be able to complete all construction tasks until around December 25, 2027, and enter the aerospace aircraft offline ceremony. However, with the efforts of the engineers, the first aerospace aircraft was moved three months ahead of schedule. All construction was completed in May, and the miniaturized 'Golden Crow Device', magnetic fluid generator set, plasma engine, anti-gravity device, and small 'quantum computer' were all successfully mounted on the space shuttle.

"Although the aerospace aircraft 'K1' was built three months in advance, the construction cost greatly exceeded the budget, reaching an astonishing 3 billion yuan, which was 2 billion yuan over the budget! I am very ashamed of this!" Yang Yue frowned. He said with a frown.

Because it was the first time to build an aerospace aircraft, the engineers were severely inexperienced, so many components had to be redone, at the cost of soaring costs. The cost of an aerospace aircraft reached an astonishing 3 billion yuan. It can be said that among aircraft of the same size , the cost of this aerospace plane is the highest, far more than other aircraft.

"I believe the construction cost of the second aerospace plane will come down. Don't worry because it exceeds the budget!" Qin Yuanqing patted Yang Yue and said.

As the deputy commander-in-chief of the "Double Ring Space Station", Yang Yue is specifically responsible for the construction of aerospace aircraft. The aerospace aircraft can be said to be the essence of China's aerospace industry, the crystallization of China's industry, and an important part of China's comprehensive national strength. It shows that its technological content far exceeds that of the Tiangong space station currently in space.

And if nothing else goes wrong, China’s third manned lunar landing in 2030 will no longer be carried out by a rocket carrier spacecraft, but by this aerospace plane. By then, it will be Shocking the whole world, it also means that China has completely achieved an absolute leading position in the aerospace field.

This is a real killer!

As the world's space craze rises, the call for space shuttles continues to rise, and the world's attention is once again focused on the space shuttle. After all, the space shuttle has great advantages over other spacecrafts. Within China, some people are constantly advocating that China should develop space shuttles to cope with the aerospace field, which will become increasingly competitive in the future.

It's a pity that they don't know that China does not develop space shuttles, but focuses on aerospace planes. Moreover, the aerospace planes are not just in the plan demonstration stage, but have already been built.

Although this aerospace shuttle 'K1' is just a standard combat aerospace plane, it can carry 5 to 7 astronauts at the same time. It can be said that its superior performance is far superior to that of previous space shuttles on the earth. The two are basically There is no comparison at all.

Such an aerospace plane is equipped with a laser cannon that can destroy any spacecraft. Even satellites will be directly destroyed if they cannot withstand the laser cannon.

"Commander Qin, are you going to give this aerospace plane a resounding code name?" Yang Yue said: "It's not good to always call it K1 or K1!"

K1 is a number, not a code name. It refers to the first aerospace plane.

The codename is an extension of the tradition of aircraft. Each aircraft model will have a codename, and the codename will be more pleasant. For example, the codename of J20 is Veyron, such as the codename of F22 is Raptor, and the codename of F35 is Lightning.

Naturally, they all hope to give this aerospace plane a shiny and powerful code name that will make people feel awesome when they hear it.

"This time the dean will personally attend the off-line ceremony of the aerospace plane. When the time comes, the dean will be asked to give the aerospace plane a name. He is much better at naming than me!" Qin Yuanqing said with a smile.

Yang Yue's eyes lit up!

He never thought that the dean would personally attend the offline ceremony of this aerospace plane.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand. The rollout of this aerospace aircraft represents that China has once again made a substantial leap in the aerospace field. It not only means that China's new generation of combat aircraft has entered the countdown to service, but also means that China will never The aviation age has truly entered the space age.

In other words, the space era has ushered in another milestone!

For such an important matter, it is normal for the dean to personally attend its offline ceremony.

"Deputy Commander Yang, after this offline ceremony and before the first flight, you have to oversee this period to ensure that everything is going smoothly. Once any problems are discovered, you must check and solve the problems as soon as possible. ." Qin Yuanqing said to Yang Yue.

After participating in tomorrow's offline ceremony, Qin Yuanqing has to leave, because China's second manned moon landing is about to begin. Qin Yuanqing needs to lead a team of experts to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the launch vehicle and spacecraft to ensure as much safety as possible Hidden danger.

Therefore, the next work will be handed over to Yang Yue.

The aerospace plane is different from other fighter jets. After it completes construction and rolls off the assembly line, it will take up to half a year before it takes off for the first time. During this half-year, the test crew will officially station in the aerospace plane and begin to become familiar with the aerospace plane. After all, this aerospace plane is different from fighters, transport planes, and bombers. It is a brand-new aerospace plane.

This means that test pilots need to spend more time getting familiar with the aerospace aircraft. Even if the entire test flight team has already completed the selection and memorized all the instructions for the use of the aerospace aircraft, or even memorized them backwards, memorization is nothing. It has to be done in practice to be real.

Unlike in the past, where only one test pilot was enough, the test flight group is a whole group, with a total of 10 people, divided into five groups, for a total of two groups.

These test pilots were all selected from the aviation group. The test pilots in both groups were very young, with an average age of only 27 years old. They all experienced fierce competition and defeated their competitors. The ones who stood out became the first A group of space shuttle astronauts!

At this moment, two people entered the assembly plant under the leadership of guards. Qin Yuanqing saw that it was Director Yan of the Air Force Equipment Department and Academician Gan, the chief engineer of the Air Force Equipment Research Institute.

Although Director Yan is over sixty years old, he is wearing a military uniform, has a serious face, and looks meticulous. His first impression gave everyone a solemn feeling.

"Director Yan!" Qin Yuanqing shook hands with Director Yan. They had dealt with each other more than once over the years. When he was developing aero engines, Director Yan was the deputy director of the Air Force Equipment Department, and then he rose through the ranks, and now he is in charge of the Air Force Equipment Department. .

Speaking of which, the two of them are old friends!

"Academician Qin, this time you have built a big satellite again. No wonder you have rejected so many new generation aircraft development plans!" Director Yan was filled with emotion.

The aerospace plane is kept highly confidential, and even he, the director of the Air Force Equipment Department, doesn't know about it.

In the past, the Air Force Equipment Department has been working on developing a new generation of combat aircraft to cope with future situations. Unfortunately, Qin Yuanqing vetoed it at every development plan meeting, which made the relevant departments of the Air Force quite annoyed, which meant that Qin Yuanqing was specifically looking for trouble.

He wanted to bypass Qin Yuanqing, but he couldn't get around him no matter what.

After all, Qin Yuanqing is known as the father of modern Chinese aviation engines. From aviation engines to aircraft body design and materials, I don’t know how many people came from Shuimu Aero Engine Research Institute, and most of what they learned were materials compiled by Qin Yuanqing. It can be said that Qin Yuanqing is Disciples and descendants.

You bypassed Qin Yuanqing, and your superiors asked Academician Qin if he had any opinions. If you said that Academician Qin was not invited to participate, your superiors would definitely give you a slap in the face, and then tear up the report without even reading it.

"Director Yan, please forgive me!" Qin Yuanqing said slightly apologetically. As the commander-in-chief of the 'Double Ring Space Station' headquarters, he is in charge of the overall work of the 'Double Ring Space Station'. Qin Yuanqing has too many secrets. He can tell anyone what he wants. He had to know all the things in his heart, otherwise the secret would be leaked and he would cause heavy losses if he was not careful.

"Academician Gan, long time no see!" Qin Yuanqing said to Academician Gan later. As the chief engineer of the Air Force Equipment Research Institute and an academician of the Academy of Engineering, Qin Yuanqing naturally knew him. Even when Qin Yuanqing developed the aero engine, Academician Gan was not Academician, the two knew each other at that time, so they can be considered old friends.

"Academician Qin, I admire it and I look forward to seeing its true appearance tomorrow!" Academician Gan said with emotion.

The aerospace plane is still just a concept and PPT, but the construction was completed so abruptly, and a roll-out ceremony will be held tomorrow.

When he was notified by his superiors, Academician Gan was still confused. Until he got here and got off the plane, he still couldn't believe it.
