The car is powered by electricity. Although the speed is slow, because it is open, the wind is too strong.
Looking back at Sheng Nan, who was dressed in a royal suit beside him, Tan Ya inquired: "the core of the warship is the nuclear fusion reactor and the plasma engine. There is no breakthrough in these two technologies. No matter how many warships are just an empty shell, how about the research and development of these two technologies?"
To Tanya's question, Sheng Nan gave a faint smile and replied: "after joint research of various countries, the nuclear fusion reactor has been able to output energy stably, but there are still some defects in the subtle control. However, it can be used. The plasma engine has produced a number of finished products, and relevant experiments are being carried out."
"Under the guidance of the prince, we found a number of tin gold mines in" Al ", which is a kind of metal with high temperature resistance and strong toughness. The material changes make everything simple. In a short time, the warships that have been built should be able to take off."
This is a big era. Sheng Nan never thought that in her generation, she could see human beings building space warships.
It's incredible, and the source of all this, the cause and effect, is the prince.
Without the prince, Al's humanity could not have progressed so fast.
During the conversation, the test site arrived, and at the edge of the site, the team stopped.
Instead of getting out of the car, the follower excitedly picked up the telescope and looked into the distance.
It's a big field. It's bare. It's a piece of soil. There's only a metal platform in the middle.
At this time, a transport boat about 50 meters long was berthed on the metal platform. The shape of the transport boat was very strange. It was a long box, slightly wide and flat.
Around the transport boat, a large number of workers in white robes are busy
Take up the telescope before, Tanya looked over.
Although her visual ability is clearer than a telescope, she can't be too conspicuous.
At this time, beside Tanya, Sheng Nan said: "after we got the design drawing of the transport boat, we analyzed the design drawing. The transport boat is a small platform, which is very suitable for the test of nuclear fusion reactor and plasma engine. We have carried out more than 30 tests like this, and only seven of them failed. The further the test, the more the future, The higher the success rate, after improvement, the last month's test has been successful. After another ten tests, this type of equipment will be finalized, followed by a large number of assembly. "
"It's going to start..."
There was new movement on the metal platform, and the staff in white robes began to evacuate by car.
After a while, there was no one on the metal platform, only the huge transport boat stood quietly on the metal platform.
Before long, about five minutes, only a "buzz" shrill sound appeared.
Under the belly of the transport boat, four blue flames burst out at the four corners.
But in a few seconds, the huge transport boat trembled slightly, rose from the ground and slowly soared into the air.
The speed is very slow. It can be seen that the pilot is very careful. When the transport boat rises to a height of 100 meters, the tail engine starts and a thick blue flame shoots out. Under the thrust, the transport boat starts to move forward slowly, circling around the test site in the sky.
The speed is getting faster and faster. At last, I seem to have received some instructions. The blue flame at the tail of the transport boat suddenly rises, thicker and longer. In the "buzz" of the engine, the speed of the transport boat suddenly speeds up, rises in the white waves, and instantly breaks through the clouds.
Warm applause, the car's entourage issued a cheering.
Over the clouds, the transport boat circled with extremely fast speed, sometimes disappeared above the clouds, sometimes appeared, it was very dexterous, and its control system was perfect.
After hovering for more than half an hour, the transport boat slowly landed from the sky and returned to the metal platform.
Tanya has to admit that the transport boat has been perfect, and it is not far from the complete finalization.
With the telescope down, Tan Ya asks Sheng Nan beside him, "what's the value of the transport boat?"
Facing Tanya's question, Sheng Nan put down his telescope and replied: "because the shape of the transport boat is not suitable for high-speed flight in the atmosphere, long-time hypersonic flight will cause damage to the ship. In the atmosphere, the ideal speed is within subsonic speed. If it flies with afterburner, it can easily break through the atmosphere and enter the orbit. On the load, It can easily load 1000 tons of goods, and the limit is 2500 tons. Because it is a pure transportation unit, it does not have too many weapons. We just equipped it with six 20 mm diameter coil rapid fire guns according to the design drawings, so that it has a certain defensive ability. "
"Although its defense capability is not as good as that of warships, its shell armor is made of 500mm C-class titanium alloy. With the existing human weapons, the most powerful magnetic acceleration gun, ordinary missiles and shells can not cause effective damage to transport boats."
Only from the numerical point of view, this type of transport boat is perfect, can meet the needs of the first Corps.
Tan yaxun asked, "if we can finalize the design and complete the experiment in one month, how about the output of transport boats in half a year?"
After a little thought, Sheng Nan replied: "because of the modular construction, a transport boat like this can be built at the same time by the current Jingbei Heavy Industry Co., Ltd., and the main ship can be built in one month. With the time of sun drying and flight test, if the production of fusion reactor and plasma engine can keep up, the finished products can be delivered in two months."
Two months?
Time is fast. After all, it's a big ship with a length of 50 meters.
Tanya knew that the first regiment was in urgent need of new equipment, and these transport boats would be the key.
At present, we don't know how long it will take for the construction of large warships. We can only let the transport boats be installed in the army first.
Thinking of this, Tan Ya said: "this type of transport boat is subject to the quantity of 300. Please deliver it as soon as possible."
It's enough for Al to bear 300 ships. As for the future demand, the earth can make it by itself.
In another year or two, the industrial capacity on the other side of the earth will not be inferior to that of al. By then, the first Legion will be able to break away from the dependence on al.
Tanya also understands that Al can't fully meet all the armament needs of the first Legion.
Now because of the deal with the first legion, Al countries will make new equipment for the first legion with the national strength.
But the deal is not infinite, there is a number, this number is decreasing, when it is zero, Al's deal with the first Legion is over.
