Chapter 847

The runway is still the same as the test flight, but the test flight is different from the last one.

Chen Xin has done a good job on the current aerospace plane. Although it has not been greatly changed, it is obvious that some problems exposed during the last test flight have been adjusted in this upgrade, and the shield device has been installed.

This test flight, in addition to further testing the ultimate performance of the aerospace aircraft, is to test the shield device to test whether the shield device can operate normally at an altitude of 40000 meters.

Because it has flown once, this takeoff is not as nervous as last time.

"Academician Chen, what do you think of the test flight?" a scientific researcher from Europe asked Chen Xin in English.

These scientific researchers from Europe have also been familiar with the working environment of Yanguo during this period, and have more contact with Chen Xin, the general person in charge, and become familiar with him gradually.

While waiting for the space plane to complete the take-off inspection, I couldn't help chatting with Chen Xin.

"This test flight? I don't have any opinion. The plane has flown once. There is no problem in all aspects of design. Theoretically, it can meet the design requirements. I don't think there will be any problems in this test flight, unless there is an accident." facing this problem, Chen Xin didn't say much, but just showed his confidence in this test flight.

In fact, the same is true. After all, the overhead plane has flown once before and has been optimized by him with the system. There is no possibility of problems in terms of performance or quality.

Although there is still the possibility of accidents, in theory, the test flight is safe.

Hearing Chen Xin's words, the European researcher raised his eyebrows and was obviously surprised by Chen Xin's confidence in the test flight.

But he didn't say anything more, just nodded and said, "I hope God bless everything as smoothly as academician Chen said."

"This is in China, you have to say God bless." Chen Xin joked, but he didn't make fun of other people's beliefs.

Although this apocalyptic disaster has caused great suffering to the whole world and seriously affected the religions of all countries in the world, there are still a large number of devout believers who are more determined in this case.

They believe that this disaster is only a test given by the gods to mankind. Mankind needs to abandon bad habits and sins, purify themselves and regain the care of the gods.

Chen Xin has always scoffed at this statement. When he was in Europe, he had a conflict with religious groups in a city, which ended in violent repression.

But he has great respect for people who really believe in piety and are willing to be strict with themselves and not force others to believe.

The foreign researcher in front of us is obviously not a pious person. The so-called God bless is just a mantra developed over the years.

So in the face of Chen Xin's ridicule, he just shrugged and made an indifferent expression.

While they chatted, the aerospace plane also completed the preparations before the test flight, entered the runway and soared to the sky with the roar of the engine.

Watching the SkyPlane climb, Chen Xin suddenly asked the researchers aside, "do you have any ideas about the weapons of the SkyPlane?"

"At present, there is no good idea. I'm afraid it doesn't make much sense to install missiles on aerospace aircraft. After all, the flight speed of aerospace aircraft can reach Mach 10, which is faster than that of many missiles." the researchers shook their heads. Obviously, there is no good answer to Chen Xin's question.

In fact, the same is true. Even if the ultra-high speed missile df-17 currently equipped by Yanguo has a maximum flight speed of Mach 10, it is still a ballistic missile, which is not the same as the missile equipped on ordinary fighters.

Therefore, the project team has a headache about what weapons the aerospace plane should be equipped with.

If we want to develop missiles for use in hypersonic environment, it is undoubtedly a new project, which will increase the investment cost of air and space fighters.

However, it is obviously impossible to say or not to do. After all, aerospace aircraft are used for war. It is impossible to say that aircraft are made without weapons and can only be used as high-speed reconnaissance aircraft.

But it is obviously not easy to develop a hypersonic air-to-air missile or air-to-ground missile that did not exist before.

First of all, the engine of the missile is a big problem. After all, not all missiles can reach a flight speed of more than Mach 10.

Df-17 is a ballistic missile. Relevant design experience cannot be directly applied to air-to-air missiles or air-to-ground missiles.

"How about laser weapons?" Chen Xin put forward an idea.

In the ultra-high speed environment, the laser is indeed much more ideal than the missile. After all, no matter how fast the aircraft is, it is not as fast as the speed of light.

"Laser weapons are indeed feasible, but under the current technical conditions, high-power laser weapons will have large optical lenses, which will be easily damaged in the ultra-high speed environment. If this problem can not be solved, the laser weapons can not be used in the ultra-high speed aircraft." the researchers nodded and agreed with Chen Xin's idea, but also pointed out the problem.

At the current scientific and technological level of mankind, the most practical laser weapons are those made by Chen Xin's scientific research center. However, even if those laser weapons that have been tested in actual combat want to be applied to ultra-high speed air and space fighters, there are still many technical difficulties to be overcome.

Without Chen Xin's intervention, it is obvious that mankind can not make such a scientific and technological breakthrough in a short time.

Chen Xin also nodded clearly. He naturally knows this. After all, he has also participated in the R & D and manufacturing of laser weapons.

But difficulties are difficulties. If there is no good solution to the problem, we should do it, whether it is laser weapons, hypersonic air-to-air missiles and air-to-air missiles.

However, at this time, another scientific researcher on the side suddenly said, "I don't know whether the high-energy particle beam weapon is feasible? Since we can build a magnetic beam device to restrain the high-energy charged particles into a shield, can we also launch it into a weapon?"

"High energy particle beam? Do you mean to accelerate charged particles with a magnetic field and then use the kinetic energy carried by the particle beam to cause damage?" Chen Xin couldn't help but feel bright at the suggestion of the scientific researcher.

This is indeed a very feasible idea. After all, the energy shield has been built. The technical principle used between the two is the same, just changing the application mode of electromagnetic field.
