God-level Trader of Rebirth
Chapter 493 Southwest Proving Ground
Under the instructions of Chen Weidong and Lin Zeju, both domestic and African bases have been making various preparations for the Utopia Plan for several years.
They develop and fight in the shopping mall, earn back large sums of money, and effectively support the smooth progress of the utopian project.
Including at the press conference, the spokesperson claimed that this was only a preliminary test of lunar exploration, and the aerospace aircraft was far from perfect.
But in fact, let alone the three-year-long data flight test organized by Zhao Gong and others in the southwest region of the ten-meter shrinkage data collection machine.
Even this 98-meter full-size verification aircraft has been tested for takeoff, landing, and low-altitude performance more than once or twice.
However, because the verification aircraft has never reached medium and high altitudes, and among the mountains in the southwest, it is difficult for foreign long-range radars to detect targets at such long distances and under complex terrain conditions.
It was not discovered by the national monitoring station.
Now, the vast mountains in the southwest have become Infinite Company's secret base specifically for testing heavy equipment.
A few years ago, the location of the base was just a river valley.
The water flow brought rich soil and gravel, which after reverberating in the valley, settled down and gradually filled the valley into a gentle valley.
Engineers repaired the valley entrance and built a dike to prevent the river from flowing back during the rainy season.
After that, they leveled the land in the valley and built factories and dormitories.
The sealed environment at the bottom of the valley and the natural terrain shaped like a basin are an excellent location for building a confidential factory.
In order to transport supplies, the military also specially allocated a large amount of manpower and material resources to build an asphalt road leading outside the mountain.
Soldiers are stationed along the road, responsible for checking the road conditions along the way, so as to carry out timely road repair and maintenance and ensure smooth access of materials.
This winding path, about ten meters wide, is the secret factory and the only way to maintain contact with the outside of the mountain.
At the mouth of the valley, a battalion of soldiers is stationed here all year round.
All people entering and leaving must wear identification tags, and everyone has a complete file. Even strangers with letters of introduction from the province or military divisions cannot enter the valley.
Anyone who dares to break in will definitely be shot to death on the spot.
From here, there is a cordon every five hundred meters.
There are three such cordons.
In addition to light firepower, there are also heavy equipment such as wheeled armored vehicles and transport helicopters.
Warning posts were set up on the surrounding hills. Telephone lines were crisscrossed. Surveillance cameras were all over the hills, 360 degrees, and there were no blind spots in all directions.
Thirty kilometers away from the valley, there are two ground radar stations monitoring the sky.
More than a dozen sets of anti-aircraft missile positions are scattered around the valley.
High-speed aircraft positions, anti-aircraft artillery positions, and individual air defense missiles form a high-low air defense system.
Although there is no air force fighter protection, in the southern theater several hundred kilometers away, two squadrons newly equipped with J-10 fighters are ready at any time.
There will be two planes on duty every day, hovering over the southwest mountainous area, euphemistically called familiarizing the equipment.
In fact, as long as they give an order, they can rush to the sky above the base and provide air cover within ten minutes.
With such tight protection, unless the enemy uses long-range nuclear missile attacks, no one can shake the base at all.
Moreover, in recent years, engineers have blasted into the mountainside, preparing to hollow out the interior of the mountain.
Once the entire project is completed and the several-meter-thick lead-iron alloy door is closed, even if a nuclear bomb attack is used, the production base may not be wiped off the map.
Such tight protection has never been seen before.
What are they protecting?
The answer was quickly revealed.
Under the protection of a large number of leading vehicles and rear guard vehicles, 50-wheel heavy-duty military trucks slowly moved into the base in the night.
The machines unloaded from the truck range in size from seven to eight meters square to tens of meters in size.
And these are just some parts of a complete machine!
These parts were carefully transported to the factory by technicians and installed under the guidance of another group of people wearing dark blue uniforms.
The time for transporting parts was all arranged at night, and the time for the American satellite to take off was accurately calculated, and the parts were delivered quietly.
This process lasted for two or three months.
Under the guidance of Infinite Company's engineering and technical experts, huge machine tools were installed one by one, and with post-debugging and precision calibration, this batch of large machine tool equipment was initially installed.
At this point, this is the core of China's military industry.
Tank turret?
Cast in one go!
Large aircraft engine?
no problem!
The special production line can complete the processing in one go without changing the machine tool.
Without changing to a better alloy formula, the strength of the engine has increased by ten to more than ten percent.
Fuel consumption has been greatly improved, and the airborne time has been greatly improved.
The service life has jumped from a few hundred hours to nearly a thousand hours.
It greatly extends the service life of military equipment in peacetime and reduces the cost of military maintenance.
Submarine propellers, new high-precision ultra-large machine tool equipment, and processed submarine propulsion blades can reduce the power propulsion noise to less than 80 decibels when the submarine is traveling on the seabed.
It was completely covered by the noise of ocean surges and underwater creatures, making it impossible for the enemy's underwater sonar to detect it.
Rocket engines, large warship keels, and fighter aircraft shell castings.
With the continuous operation of the base, from the initial single-piece trial production, to the mid-term small batch processing, to the later stage, the three armies lined up to send the main components of large-scale military products here for manufacturing one after another.
This base has officially played the role of the core of China's military industry.
The J-10 is still the same J-10, but its improved engine gives it more power.
The take-off weight increased from thirteen tons to seventeen tons, which increased the load by more than four tons.
The powerful power support greatly improves the fighter's climbing ability and turning radius, making air combat flexibility more prominent.
If it is said that the performance of the J-16 is already equivalent to that of the F16, there is a psychological comfort factor in it, but the modified J- is not inferior to the F in terms of its air combat performance.
In addition, the shell casting and propellers of a new model of nuclear-powered attack submarine were all trial-produced by Infinite Company's machinery department at this foundry base.
After the final assembly was launched, the test results were extremely satisfactory to the Navy.
After that, during combat readiness patrols, this type of submarine suddenly surfaced without warning in front of the M and Japanese fleets that "accidentally entered" our waters several times, and appeared in front of the opposing fleets.
Scared them into a cold sweat and kept them far away from this sea area.
In the other party's official submission document, this new model of submarine was called a "ghost submarine."
Wandering in the deep sea, coming and going without a trace, elusive and untraceable.
The military's strategic duty nuclear submarine built a test boat and after a year of testing, all the remaining shell and blade manufacturing tasks were handed over to Infinite Company's large equipment casting base.
The military's large-scale weapon systems have achieved a huge leap in overall performance through the manufacturing of Infinite Company's ultra-high-precision equipment.
By 2010, the mountainside project was completed. The engineers used TNT to blast out a huge space that extended underground and covered dozens of square kilometers.
The thickest part is two to three kilometers long, while the weakest part is only one or two kilometers long, enough to withstand a frontal attack by a nuclear bomb.
Internally, there are engine casting workshops, large deformation equipment manufacturing workshops, special equipment manufacturing workshops, etc., and there are more than ten large workshops.
Each workshop is divided according to levels.
In total, tens of thousands of people can work, live and rest inside.
The new foundry base operates in three eight-hour shifts. After each shift at the cave entrance, the eight-meter-thick lead-iron alloy gate will be slowly closed driven by a high-power motor to prevent emergencies.
There is an air filtration system inside the mountain and it is connected to underground water. In addition, a large amount of food and equipment are stored.
In possible critical moments, the cave can protect 20,000 people from the outside environment within a year.
After the factory was relocated to the center of the mountain, the temporary factory building outside became vacant.
However, it was only vacant for less than half a year before new staff arrived.
This is the aerospace aircraft test team led by Zhao Gong.
They retained a factory building near the mountain wall, and the other buildings were knocked down and filled in.
After that, high-grade cement was transported from outside the mountain and a ten-kilometer-long ultra-long runway was built.
The collection machine used to test data is only about one-tenth of its full size and is about ten meters long.
However, because the aerospace aircraft must ensure supersonic flight, it cannot adopt the shape design of a conventional aircraft. An excessively long wingspan will create strong resistance during flight.
Therefore, the aerospace plane designed by Infinity Company uses what is called a "rising body" in supersonic aerodynamics.
That is, a blunt triangle.
An aircraft with this shape design will form an upward lifting force when flying at supersonic speed, reducing power consumption and saving energy.
However, the wingspan of this aircraft is too small, so when taking off with conventional turbine drive, a longer runway is needed.
Moreover, due to the large size of the aircraft and the use of a new alloy formula, the full-size demonstrator weighed one hundred and twenty tons.
The lifting and landing support frames and sliding tires alone must be specially made.
In addition, a special reinforced design has been made in the belly area.
This kind of aircraft has no way to take off and land on conventional runways. It can only take off and land on specially-made super-high-grade runways.
The paved runway alone is 1.5 meters thick!
For this alone, the cost of building this runway has reached more than 300 million yuan!
This approximately ten-meter model aircraft adopts an operation mode that combines ground remote control flight and artificial intelligence driving.
They specially borrowed a J-10 from the Air Force for modification, removed the weapon system, and installed a remote-controlled gondola. The operator flew the aircraft remotely in the back seat.
There is no other way.
The composite engine used by the aerospace aircraft uses a turbine when taking off. When it reaches Mach 4, it uses a rocket engine to accelerate for a short time. When it reaches a speed of Mach 7 or above, the scramjet engine can start.
Once started, his speed can suddenly increase to more than ten, or even Mach 20 or 30.
Radio tracking will be extremely difficult.
Even if the J-Shilai high-altitude remote control is used, it can only fly to high altitude in advance and use segmented remote control to ensure that the aircraft will not escape control.
As for the ceiling, it's not a problem. The J-10's maximum ceiling reaches an ultra-high altitude of 18 kilometers.
This is the normal take-off altitude of the aerospace plane.
Going up further, you can only use rocket engines to boost you to break out of the thin atmosphere.
After that, it goes up hundreds of kilometers to the low-Earth orbit, and then through orbit correction and maneuvering to increase its speed relative to the blue star, it can truly get rid of the planet's gravity and enter outer space and cosmic space.
Just talking about it casually, the technology involved is already very complicated.
In fact, at the African base, researchers have tested various indicators of the aerospace aircraft in simulated environments and have made tens of thousands of improved designs.
This is an advantage that no other country or scientific research organization can match.
In a near-real physical environment, design loopholes that may cause fatal flaws are found in advance, and then improved or redesigned.
During the research process of other aircraft, it takes several years or even more than ten years of repeated flight tests to master some key data.
During this process, it is not uncommon for test machines to crash due to design flaws.
In order to find the cause of the crash, the designers had to re-create a verification machine with the same defect to find the problem that caused the accident.
It’s no surprise that after a long period of tossing and turning, a research was stuck on some key data.
While foreign researchers are still troubled by the high experimental costs and slow research progress, researchers at the African base have already obtained all the proofs in the virtual environment.
All they spent was their ingenuity and some electricity consumption.
If it weren't for the fact that human scientific understanding is far from enough and the virtual environment cannot achieve 100% perfect simulation, the African base would not need to conduct actual testing at all to finalize and produce prototypes.
Even so, it is still a test machine used for initial data collection.
Except for the fact that the model machine manufactured by Zhao Gong and the others is only one-tenth of the full size, from the core to the technology, it is extremely mature and has little difference from the final model of the real machine.
The only difference between this aircraft and a real person is that it uses intelligent remote control.
Inside it, there are three photon processor chips building an intelligent auxiliary flight system.
The control center is equipped with a miniature version of the Tiandao intelligent system.
The remote control operator only needs to give a simple command, such as taking off, landing, circling, flying upward, etc., and the intelligent system will make certain autonomous responses according to the preset program.
According to the flight status and control performance of the aircraft at that time, the instructions are executed.
Gong Zhao and the others were very careful, and each project was tested dozens or hundreds of times before moving on to the next one.
Families of employees at Infinite Company's large foundry base in the southwest discovered that the formerly peaceful valley had turned into a busy airport.
The sound of supersonic speeds breaking through the sky can be heard every day, sometimes far and sometimes near, rumbling across the sky.
In those years, the intelligence agency also intercepted the children of several employees and secretly took photos of aircraft in an attempt to post them on the Internet. They were immediately dealt with very severely.
People have endured the noise caused by the harsh supersonic sound barrier for more than two years.
Then, they woke up one day and suddenly found that the voice that disturbed them every day had suddenly disappeared.
The factories in the valley are still there and the runways are still straight and straight.
However, those dark blue uniforms who laughed and danced around a model airplane like children every day were missing.
It's like they never came. (End of chapter)
