After Zhang Zhong introduced it like this, Qin Tao also prefers this ground-effect aircraft plan. After all, this plan is being studied by himself, and a 100,000-ton aerospace aircraft carrier will definitely not be able to take off and land on the runway with tires. It can only take off and land on the runway.

Taking off and landing in the sea is the same as ground effect aircraft.

"What is the use of such a large aerospace aircraft carrier? Wouldn't it be used the same way if we put it on the sea?" Someone asked the second question.

Qin Tao smiled: "Everyone is from the navy, so they don't realize the benefits of this thing. If the air force is called over, they will know the benefits immediately."

Only those from the Air Force can better understand aerospace aircraft carriers!

Because the Air Force has been studying the plan of a carrier aircraft for many years, this aerospace aircraft carrier is equivalent to a large carrier aircraft!

"Because aircraft carriers can only sail at sea, and our aerospace aircraft carriers, in addition to seas, can also fly over land." Zhang Zhong explained this problem: "Aircraft carriers can only attack coastal countries and cannot attack inland countries.

, For example, if the U.S. Navy wants to attack Lao Maozi, the most it can do is attack Lao Maozi's coastal areas. Lao Maozi can hide in the Ural region to accumulate strength for counterattack just like during World War II. However, if the United States has an aerospace aircraft carrier,

Then it can appear in the sky above Laomaozi's interior, and even if the weather conditions are suitable, it can fly over the North Pole and directly attack Laomaozi's hinterland."

Everyone suddenly realized that the advantage of an aerospace aircraft carrier is that it can attack inland! Although 70% of the earth is seawater, after all, isn't there still 130% inland? Moreover, seawater like the Arctic Ocean

There is a huge ice layer, which is no different from the inland.

There are still advantages to aerospace aircraft carriers!

"Yes, our aerospace aircraft carrier can fly over land, but such a big thing will be greatly affected by bad weather, right?"

"So, the index we designed is higher, and it has to fly to the top of the stratosphere."

"The ceiling is 20,000 meters? Then don't the workers on the deck have to carry oxygen bottles?" The big guy raised a new question.

At an altitude of 20,000 meters, the air is extremely thin. If you are directly exposed there, you will definitely suffocate to death. At the same time, even if there is oxygen, it is still very cold there!

It’s uncomfortable to think about a group of people wearing thick winter clothes and carrying oxygen bottles working in that kind of airspace.

"Everyone, the ceiling is only the maximum altitude that the aircraft can fly to. It does not mean that the aircraft will fly at that altitude for a long time."

Ordinary fighter jets can fly above 15,000 meters, and better ones can fly up to 20,000 meters. So, will fighter jets fly that high every time? Of course not!

Flying to an altitude of 20,000 meters is only occasional, and usually we fly below an altitude of 10,000 meters. In the MiG-21 era, two types of flight suits and helmets were prepared. If you fly to high altitudes, you wear a fully enclosed helmet, which is similar to that of astronauts.

When it comes to normal flight suits, just wear ordinary ones. Later, as the number of aircraft that can fly 20,000 meters continued to increase, it was considered that they were no longer specialized.

The same is true for aerospace aircraft carriers. Occasionally when encountering bad weather, they fly to high places to avoid the storm. Normally, flying two to three thousand meters is enough. If you want to take advantage of ground effects, you can even fly to a height of tens of meters.

become.

"If the height is increased, will it become science fiction?" Qin Tao asked.

Want to increase the height? Everyone looked at Qin Tao curiously, and Zhang Zhong asked: "Mr. Qin, how much do you plan to increase the height?"

"Forty thousand meters." Qin Tao said.

Zhang Zhong shook his head: "How is that possible? Is there still air at 40,000 meters? Then we definitely can't use air power, we have to use rocket power. Do we not only use nuclear fusion reactors, but also need to use nuclear fusion rocket engines?"

"Why not?" Qin Tao said.

Humanity can't wait to develop controllable nuclear fusion, not just nuclear fusion reactors, but also nuclear fusion rocket engines, which are nuclear rockets!

Can nuclear power really be used only to heat steam and then drive a steam turbine? Of course not! Nuclear power can also be used in other ways, such as allowing humans to fly into space!

The performance of chemical rockets has reached its limit there. If you want to develop more advanced rockets, you must have a brand new engine!

After the development of nuclear reactors, many scientists began to tinker with nuclear rocket engines. The first one was Los Alamos Laboratory. Later, Lao Maozi also started related research, Keldish Institute of Thermal Processes, Kurcia

Institutions such as the TOEF Institute for Atomic Energy have invested a lot of effort.

The working principle of these rocket engines is almost the same: using a high-temperature core to heat the working fluid and allowing the working fluid to be ejected from the nozzle of the engine.

Chemical rocket engines use combustion to generate high-temperature and high-pressure gas, while nuclear-powered rocket engines use a nuclear reactor to directly heat the fuel, turning the fuel into high-temperature and high-pressure gas and ejecting it out. This only requires a working fluid and no oxidizer.

In order to reduce the weight, liquid hydrogen with the smallest molecular weight needs to be used, which can also increase the specific impulse.

When the hydrogen is heated by the high-temperature core, it can be ejected from the nozzle at high speed at a temperature of more than 2,500 Kelvin, and the specific impulse obtained is more than twice that of a chemical rocket.

There are nuclear-powered rocket design plans in many science fiction novels. This plan also has a theoretical basis. Lao Maozi's temperature is even higher. The exhaust temperature of the nuclear rocket engine RD-0410 reaches 3,000 Kelvin, and the specific impulse is also very high.

high.

Unfortunately, until the collapse of the Red Empire, this kind of engine was not developed, and the project was abandoned after that. After all, there was no money to support this kind of development.

Now, Qin Tao talked about nuclear-powered rocket engines again, and everyone's brains couldn't keep up.

"Mr. Qin, the nuclear fusion rocket engine is too far away. It is difficult for us to achieve technological breakthroughs. If this technology is added, our project will not be easily believed by others." Zhang Zhong knew that there must be a bottom line when deceiving people, and he cannot

Talk nonsense.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Then we will use it as a technical reserve. Our aerospace aircraft carriers only use nuclear fusion reactors at this stage. After the nuclear fusion rocket engines mature, we can install these

Build a rocket engine so that it can be deployed at any time, and you can reach anywhere in the world in half a day."

"Okay." Zhang Zhong nodded. We will do whatever Mr. Qin says. Anyway, it is a technical reserve that proves that we are conducting research. Moreover, Mingzhou Group has a starship company. Even if they want to develop nuclear-powered rockets, then

It also makes sense.

"Okay, let's stop talking about the power system of this space carrier, and then talk about its protection system. We use electromagnetic guns and laser cannons as defensive weapons. Isn't that excessive?"

Zhang Zhong nodded: "Of course it's not too much. These weapons have gradually matured, especially the electromagnetic gun. Everyone can foresee that in the next ten or twenty years, it will be equipped with troops. We will put this kind of gun on the space carrier."

Ship, of course it’s no problem, as long as you don’t mention any energy shield.”

Qin Tao was dumbfounded. He really wanted to talk about the energy shield. Using electromagnetic deflection technology to make the flying missiles turn directly, this is not too much. After all, we have a high-power nuclear fusion reactor!

However, Zhang Zhong directly blocked Qin Tao's words.

"Okay, then the energy shield will be the future development direction. This is not too much, right? Just like our nuclear fusion rocket engine, it is a technical pre-research."

Zhang Zhong nodded: "We estimate that it will be put into use within the next fifty years. It is still possible. After all, our technology is developing at an accelerated pace."

Having said this, it’s time to talk about carrier-based aircraft.

"This kind of aerospace mothership needs aerospace fighters. We now have the Baidi aerospace plane, which can be used as one of them. However, we can also assume another type of unmanned fighter aircraft. This kind of fighter is called Xuannv Aircraft.

The Sky Fighter also uses a variable cycle engine and has a maximum speed of Mach 5."

"Taozi, you are very good at naming names. In such a short period of time, you came up with several names, and each of them sounds very nice, with a...romantic feeling." Wu Shengli said.

Qin Tao smiled shyly, of course these were all plagiarized, but can the things of scholars be called stealing?

"At the same time, in order to solve the battle on the ground, we also need a mecha. This kind of mecha can also be driven by a small nuclear fusion reactor, let's call it Tianhe." Qin Tao continued to introduce the idea.

It is too rare that a country or nation can be brought to its knees by relying on air power. War on the ground never stops, and the navy also has marines, who have to fight on the ground.

Now we rely on tanks, and in the future we will rely on mechas!

"Mechas are not considered science fiction. After all, we already have mechanical exoskeletons. If this kind of equipment continues to develop, it will gradually transition to mechas. The key is power. With small nuclear fusion reactors, mechas can also

Let’s tinker with it.” Zhang Zhong said, “When I go back, I’ll design it carefully.”

The project was not handed over to the scientific research institute but to Zhang Zhong, so of course it was meant to deceive the outside world.

Zhang Zhong will definitely be able to complete this task well.

Qin Tao nodded: "The entire plan is codenamed Nantianmen. It is our Mingzhou Group's advanced plan for the next fifty years. Our group will use all funds to study this plan and work hard to realize it."

After thinking for a while, Qin Tao continued: "Of course, this is not to provoke an arms race. We are for the development of human civilization. If controllable nuclear fusion is developed, mankind will enter a first-level civilization."

The scientific community has divided the entire cosmic civilization into seven levels. Humanity's current civilization is only at a few tenths. Without realizing interplanetary navigation, it will not be able to reach the first level civilization, and this requires a breakthrough in controllable nuclear fusion technology.

Zhang Zhong nodded: "I understand!"

In the Yellow Building of the Navy, the Nantianmen Plan was officially determined. This plan was true and false. Once it was launched, it immediately caused shock and posed a big problem to countless people.

How did Reagan cripple the Red Empire back then? Now, things have turned around!

At the same time when the plan was being formulated, Krasnopolski had already taken a plane and appeared in football country as a famous nuclear reactor expert and the head of an African laboratory.

"Mr. Krasnopolsky, welcome to football country." Sagastrese came to the airport to greet him personally, and was surrounded by heavy protection. He valued visitors from the East very much.

Although Krasnopolsky has now established an African laboratory, which sounds awesome, everyone knows that this laboratory is just an empty shell. Conducting scientific research in Africa? This is simply impossible.

However, with this name, it has nothing to do with Mingzhou Group and Dongfang. Even if such secret activities are leaked, there is no need to worry about causing trouble.

"Well, I'm very happy to be here. I heard that you need advanced nuclear power with high power and a cylindrical shape. Don't worry, our African laboratory has enough technology. We will provide you with whatever products you want.

product."

Nuclear power treasure? Sagastres was surprised for a few seconds before suddenly reacting: "Yes, it is a nuclear power treasure! We need advanced nuclear power treasures! We will discuss the specific details when we go back."

"good."

The guys got in the car and did not go to the capital city, but to the Itaguaí Naval Shipyard, the largest in football country.

The sea water in Sepetiba Bay was flowing quietly, and the air at the seaside was humid. Since it was summer here, many tourists could still be seen on the beach. The car drove along the seaside road until it entered the shipyard and stopped directly.

In the submarine production workshop.

The construction of submarines is continuing in the tall factory building. Looking at the size of the sections, it has a displacement of two thousand tons.

Renault Poyet, the director of the shipyard, warmly received everyone and introduced to Krasnopolski: "Dear guests, this is the Tupi-class submarine we are building, which is a replica of the German 209 submarine.

What do you think of our construction technology?”

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Not bad."

"Now, we want to order an advanced nuclear power plant from you to install in front of the engine room of this Tupi-class submarine. Please give us some suggestions." Sagastres said excitedly.
