Chapter 579: Test flight

Views:

The hangar door slowly rose, and the entire hangar door, which was hundreds of meters wide, was revealed. Chen Mo and others could see the true appearance of the Goddess in the hangar from outside the door.

The door opened and several robots lined up to enter the cabin.

Chen Mo did not need a test pilot to test the flight, but chose to use a robot.

This airplane is different from traditional airplanes. You don’t have to be very skilled in flying airplanes to master it, but you must know the airplane very well.

The robot stores all the operating instructions for this aircraft. If there are any problems, they can be discovered and controlled immediately.

"Good thing I caught up."

When the plane left the warehouse, Zhao Min happened to rush over.

How could such an important moment be without her, the president of the Army Ant Group

Also coming with her was Yao Yi. Yao Yi also exchanged a few words with Li Chengzhi and briefly greeted the expert team on the field. He did not continue the conversation and looked towards the hangar.

Because everyone's attention is on the hangar.

A behemoth.

Yao Yi's eyelids jumped when he saw the true appearance of the plane.

Those who didn’t know better thought it was a national bomber coming over.

Chen Mo's handiwork is not ordinary.

"Go to the command center."

After the plane left the hangar, Chen Mo led several people towards the control room of the space center.

"OH, God, what the hell is this?" At the Pentagon, Jerrysden couldn't help but exclaimed as he looked at the images sent back by the satellite. It was already night, and the only trace of sleepiness disappeared.

The screams alerted other personnel in the spy satellite control room. There were no emergency personnel at hand, and they all gathered around.

On the screen, it was the airport of the Flying Ant Space Center, and there were planes that had just come out of the warehouse.

"How big is it?"

Wayne, a senior official in the spy satellite control room, couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the plane.

"It's bigger than the B2." A technician next to him said while retrieving information: "We don't seem to have any information about this aircraft in our current intelligence database."

"It's not like there is no technical information about the army ant group." Wayne said with a dark face.

This is the Marching Ant Group's space center. Since the construction of this space center, they have used spy satellites for monitoring, hoping to collect some useful intelligence.

The space center is in the hands of infrastructure madmen, and the construction speed is changing day by day.

Unexpectedly, not long after it was completed, the planes came out.

They don't have any information about this aircraft.

"Is it another stealth bomber from China?" Jerisden guessed.

In China's last National Day military parade, three pieces of equipment attracted the most attention: anti-stealth radar, war robots and stealth bombers.

Not long after this, another huge creature appeared.

Judging from the satellite images, this aircraft is not small, and the design looks a bit special.

"That is the space center of the Marching Ant Group. It should be an aircraft manufactured by Chen Mo. It is unknown whether it is a bomber manufactured for the Chinese military." Wayne was also a little unsure.

That perverted company can develop controlled nuclear fusion. Intelligent robots are just like toys. Nothing they make will feel weird.

"To sort out this information, we need to report it to the staff and the White House."

Wayne was not in a good mood.

China is their biggest opponent and has become more and more powerful. It is not a good thing for them to have such a terrifying aircraft.

People from the US Department of Defense were not the only ones who saw this plane.

Some countries that are concerned about the army ant group have also received news.

The personnel of the intelligence office of the Ministry of Defense of the island responsible for operating spy satellites also saw the giant thing on the Flying Ant Space Airport through satellite images.

The Army Ant Group is the Chinese enterprise they are most concerned about, especially after the war robots came out.

After the space center came out, they all collected intelligence through satellites. They didn't expect that such a behemoth would suddenly appear today.

"The analysis shows that the wingspan is about 75 meters, the length is about 35 meters, and the height is unknown. This is a three-dimensional composition simulation of the aircraft based on satellite images. The design of the abdomen is unknown, and it is a rough simulation."

Technicians quickly simulated the aircraft image through computers. They only had a rough appearance and the specific details were not clear.

But the belly of the aircraft they simulated was so different from the original that it couldn't even be considered a model.

"Could it be a new strategic bomber developed by the Army Ant Group for the Chinese military?" a thin official speculated.

"No one is sure. Let's inform the superiors." The leading official said with a dark face.

Worker Ant Defense, a subsidiary of the Marching Ant Group, has sold war robots to the Chinese military, and it is not unusual to sell other equipment.

But there is no definite information, they are just speculation.

At the same time, the Russian intelligence agency also received information and quickly transferred spy satellites passing over China to target the airport of the Flying Ant Space Center.

The world's top intelligence agencies and the military are paying attention to the mysterious aircraft at the space center airport.

No one thought it was a joke because it was the space center of the Army Ant Group.

"let's start."

In the command center, Chen Mo could clearly see the planes at the airport on his screen.

"Try taking off vertically first."

As Chen Mo's order fell, the aircraft's engine had started.

Under the plane, a huge wind had appeared, sweeping and spreading in all directions.

"Propulsion system activated."

There are no problems with the various data displayed on the command center console.

As the power continued to increase, everyone in the command center could clearly see through the glass windows that the aircraft was already three meters above the ground, suspended in it, and still rising slowly.

"It really can."

Several engine experts covered their heads and couldn't believe what was happening in front of them.

They were surprised by Chen Mo's ion engine, but they didn't believe it could propel an aircraft weighing dozens of tons.

But the facts are right in front of us.

The techniques Chen Mo mentioned are all true.

A plane of dozens of tons took off vertically. Being able to see this scene in the Year of Sound made the experts on the scene extremely excited.

"The propulsion system is normal." Mo Nu said.

"Try a vertical landing."

Chen Mo looked at the data on the computer screen and the scene of the aircraft, and gave a few instructions.

After several attempts, it was determined that vertical takeoff and landing was not a big problem.

"Elevation height, 100 meters."

Chen Mo continued to test the aircraft according to his ideas.

The aircraft, which was originally suspended at about 5 meters, climbed steadily. In less than 20 seconds, it had risen to a position of 100 meters, like a ray suspended in the air.

"Vertical takeoff and landing, this is vertical takeoff and landing."

In the intelligence room of the Pentagon's spy satellite, the lights were brightly lit, and a group of people were already making a fuss.

China's capabilities are different from those of the past. They are not surprised to be able to build such a large aircraft, but it takes off and lands vertically. Planes of dozens of tons take off and land vertically under their satellite monitoring.

How terrible is the technology that allows such a large aircraft to take off and land vertically

A group of defense intelligence officers were frightened.

"Hell, what kind of monster did the Army Ant Group develop?"

"Damn army ants."

Wayne was also shocked when he saw that the behemoth could lift vertically into the air.

This is very important information. China has mastered a terrible engine technology that allows aircraft of dozens of tons to take off and land vertically.

Intelligence agencies in other countries were shocked when they saw the plane taking off and landing vertically through spy satellites.

A plane of dozens of tons can take off and land vertically. How terrible is the technology of the Army Ant Group

When everyone was shocked, Chen Mo also issued new instructions to the plane.

"Now take off for flight testing."

There is no problem with hovering, taking off and landing in the air. Next comes the test of high-altitude navigation and space.

Following Chen Mo's instructions, the engine at the tail of the aircraft also increased its power and accelerated to a high altitude until it turned into a small black dot in everyone's field of vision.

"Height 5 kilometers."

"The propulsion system is normal."

"The power system is normal."

“…”

There was no problem during the take-off phase, which made the experts on the field breath a sigh of relief, but they were still worried.

The plane is equipped with countless high technologies that are beyond the times. If this plane falls, how much damage will be caused? And they also feel sorry for the high technology on the plane.

Unknowingly, they regarded this test flight as an experiment in which they participated.

"The altitude is 13 kilometers, the external temperature is minus 61 degrees Celsius, and the data is normal."

In the command center, the beeps of various artificial intelligences were echoing, and many experts looked at the computer screen without taking a breath.

Chen Mo stood aside and looked at the screen in front of him thoughtfully, not in any hurry.

"The altitude is 16 kilometers, the external temperature is minus 73 degrees Celsius, and it is about to enter the stratosphere. The data is normal."

Enter the stratosphere and put a smile on the face of the experts on the field.

Yang Wei secretly relaxed his tight grip a little.

The height between the top of the troposphere and the stratosphere is the most suitable for aircraft flying. The sky is clear and the visibility is high. The clouds are below and the weather has little impact on this height.

"Height 20 kilometers."

"Height 30 kilometers..."

“…”

As everyone expected, the feedback data had broken through the troposphere and entered the stratosphere. People who were originally relieved began to become nervous again.

This is the first test. It goes up so high and the height is still rising. Do you want to challenge the space

Time passes minute by minute, and the altitude is constantly being refreshed. There is no abnormality in the data. For those on the field, the fact that there is no abnormality is the best news.

With the data fed back by the aircraft, the altitude has not stopped rising.

This time, aerospace expert Huaxing couldn't sit still.

"Academician Chen, this altitude has reached the top of the stratosphere and is almost entering the middle layer. With this result in the first test, it is already perfect. Do you want to break through to a higher area without waiting for the next preparation?"

"No need." Chen Mo shook his head: "This is an aerospace plane, and this altitude is the test."

His armor can fly to the stratosphere, and the Goddess will have no problem challenging this altitude without any technical glitches.

This is an aerospace plane, and this altitude is just the beginning.

"The altitude is 55 kilometers and it has entered the mesosphere. The external temperature is minus 83 degrees Celsius. The propulsion system is normal and the air pressure in the cabin is normal."

This time everyone was not calm.

After the first test flight, enter the middle layer, continue, and reach the top of the middle layer, then the Goddess belongs to the category of spacecraft.

spacecraft category.

It means that the Goddess is a real aerospace plane, a spacecraft that can enter space.

"The altitude is 65 kilometers, the external temperature is minus 86 degrees Celsius, and the data is normal."

At this time, the position showed that the Goddess had arrived over the Pacific Ocean.

At this time, the experts on the field were numb.

It was the first test flight of the aircraft and he dared to go to the middle level of 60 kilometers. Chen Mo was not ordinary courageous.

Several experts hesitated to speak, and finally gave up trying to dissuade them.

This is the aircraft of the Army Ant Group. In theory, it has nothing to do with them. They are just guests, here to visit, and they should not disturb the work of the developers.

Chen Mo's understanding of aircraft must be more comprehensive than theirs.

"At an altitude of 80 kilometers, we have reached the top of the mesosphere. The external temperature is minus 90 degrees Celsius, the temperature inside the cabin is 25 degrees Celsius, the temperature control system is normal; the air pressure is 101.3KPa, the air pressure is normal, and the environmental control and life support systems are normal;

The power supply and distribution systems are normal; the measurement, control and communication systems are normal; the propulsion system is normal; the robotic arm system is normal; the crew system is normal; the instrumentation and lighting systems are normal; and data management is normal. "

As the plane entered the top of the mezzanine, the experts on the field were shocked.

Reaching an altitude of 80 kilometers means that the Goddess is a spacecraft that does not rely on the atmosphere to fly. Chen Mo said that this was an aerospace plane and it was successfully implemented on the first test flight.

"Okay, this test flight is over, let's return." Chen Mo gave a direct instruction.
