Galactic Tech Empire

Chapter 280

4 month 15 day.

The Huoshao Island Satellite Launch Base on Dongdao was in a state of awe.

A Hsiung Feng 9A launch vehicle is quietly standing in the middle of the silo.

The heroic figure with a length of 16.5 meters, a diameter of 2.78 meters and an overall weight of more than 60 tons is full of majesty and violence.

"emission!"

The manhole cover of the silo bounced off in an instant, and Xiongfeng 9 shot straight into the sky.

at the same time.

Powerful countries all over the world are paying attention to Xiongfeng 9.

NASA headquarters.

[Dididi!Level [-] alert! ]

[Lock target, bearing...]
[Speed ​​8743 meters per second...]
Maxwell looked at the satellite surveillance screen, his expression darkened.

This so-called satellite launch vehicle is too fast, with a speed of nearly Mach 26, it cannot be stopped at all.

At this speed, it only takes half an hour to run 1.8 kilometers, which is terrifying to the extreme.

Dr. Archimedes looked at the satellite monitoring screen and the data analyzed by the computer, frowned and said, "Mr. Mike, something is wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"Look at the data. From the data point of view, this launch vehicle is 41 in the DF series. The entire launch vehicle is at most 63 to 65 tons. According to this weight, it is impossible to reach a distance of 1.8 kilometers." Archimedes The doctor analyzed.

Maxwell looked at the data and found that the situation was indeed as Archimedes said, but this discovery did not make him very happy.

"Look and talk."

Dr. Archimedes did not refute. After all, the technology of Yinhe Technology is sometimes so weird. If others can't do it, it doesn't mean that Yinhe Technology can't do it.

Like NASA, the Maoxiong Space Agency, the Western Space Agency, the Sun Kingdom, and Tianzhu have all discovered the strangeness of Xiongfeng 9.

Around ten past ten.

Xiongfeng 9 has flown nearly 6000 kilometers, and when it was approaching Port Vila, Vanuatu, the first-stage rocket stalled and left.

Since the flying altitude of Xiongfeng 9 is about 94 kilometers above sea level, the first-stage rocket that is separated from the main body will automatically activate the self-destruct device after ten seconds.

The first-stage rocket instantly turned into a ball of fire, and countless fragments fell towards the sea below. At this height and speed, these fragments would be burned by the friction of the atmosphere before falling to the ground or the sea.

At around 9:1.2, Hsiung Feng [-] has flown [-] kilometers and reached the famous South Pacific spacecraft cemetery.

The second-stage rocket flamed out, and like the first-stage rocket, its fate was to self-destruct.

The remaining third-stage rocket will carry the payload, make a big bend in the South Pacific, turn back northwest, and then crash in the sea about 1000 kilometers southwest of Easter Island.

29:[-].

In the NASA satellite monitoring screen, in the South Pacific Ocean, a huge hole appeared in the sea area at about 30 degrees south latitude and 120 degrees west longitude.

"..." Maxwell looked at the satellite monitoring screen in silence.

"Equivalent to 450-500 tons of equivalent, very amazing, really amazing." Archimedes was amazed.

The sober Maxwell ordered: "Estimate their payload?"

"pass it to me."

Dr. Archimedes called up the monitored data and began to calculate. After 10 minutes: "Mr. Mike, two bad news."

"Come on! We've got to face reality, don't we?"

Archimedes paused, and organized his language: "The preliminary estimate is that the payload is about 7 to 8 tons, which means that the charge they used is between 60 and 70 times that of T."

"In addition, the payload is 7-8 tons, also..."

"It also means that the opponent's effective load factor is very high." Maxwell continued in a deep voice.

"My initial estimate is that they have a payload factor of 10 to 12 percent, which is very difficult to do."

There was a dead silence in NASA's satellite monitoring room. They were all professionals, so of course they knew the horror of this data.

Although Mao Xiong's Satan launch vehicle looks very good, but if you look closely, you can see the gap between the two.

Satan has a total weight of about 200 tons, a payload of 8.8 tons, and a payload factor of only 4.4%.

The Xiongfeng 9 has a total weight of 64 tons, a payload of 7.6 tons, and a payload factor of 11.8%.

The effective load factor of Xiongfeng 9 is 2.68 times that of Satan, which means that if Xiongfeng 9 is as heavy as Satan, the payload that can be delivered within a distance of 1.8 kilometers may reach 45 to 50 tons.

In addition, Xiongfeng's speed is very fast, so fast that it is difficult to intercept and react.

The west coast of Mi Li’s home is about 1 kilometers away from Dongtang, and the east coast is about 1.4 kilometers away. Xiongfeng 9 can deliver express delivery to the door by making a bend.

As for other places in Asia, Western Europe, and Oceania, let alone.

Even though it is known that due to the existence of mushroom eggs, world-class conflicts are unlikely to happen, the strength of Dongtang still makes people feel a lot of pressure.

Other countries monitoring this experiment also fell silent. This kind of strength reminded them of another old friend, an old friend who was cheated to death by them.

The current situation in the world is more and more like before 1991. Both the economy and the fist are very strong Dongtang, and the Mili family is declining. This has to make people worry about the future.

In a situation where countries around the world are worried.

A ghost airship team successfully recovered the data cabin of Xiongfeng 9.

Dongdao Huoshao Island Base.

"According to the experimental data, the maximum distance reached 1.8713 kilometers." Li Jie's analysis report said.

"1.87 kilometers, the performance is obviously excessive. I suggest that it is enough to suppress the maximum distance to 1.6 kilometers. In this way, the payload can be increased to about 16 tons." Another researcher suggested.

"That's a good proposal. We can make some improved models." The experts from the mainland delegation also nodded.

They like to go berserk the most. Of course, the bigger the payload, the better. It's best to be able to hit the soul with one shot, that's the most enjoyable.

Of course, the payload of 7.6-16, for those countries whose area does not exceed 10 square kilometers, it is definitely a sour shot to heaven.

"After the test of another Xiongfeng 9 is completed tomorrow, let's discuss how to improve it!" Huang Haojie returned the report to Li Jie.

"Ok."

"Just listen to Mr. Huang."...

4 month 16 day.

The second Xiongfeng 9 soared into the sky.

But this time, the Hsiung Feng 9 was launched on a transport ship.

It broke into the sky over the northeast of the Tianzhu Ocean, then passed through the southwest of the Tianzhu Ocean, entered the South Atlantic Ocean and crashed.

Unlike the single type of the first Xiongfeng 9, the second Xiongfeng 9 is a mother-child type.

The satellite monitoring departments of all countries in the world have been shocked to the point of numbness. Even if this thing adopts the current design and does not use mushrooms, it is estimated that one can equalize a large Ford fleet.

Data pod recovered.

Huang Haojie held a meeting with the researchers of the research institute, the investigation team from the mainland, and Wang Dalong from Supernova Industry to discuss the next arrangement.

Due to the excess performance of Xiongfeng 9, especially in terms of distance, the discussion revolves around these issues.

For example, the enlarged version of Xiongfeng 9; or the version that suppresses the distance and enhances the payload; or the version that can launch high-orbit satellites, etc.

In terms of usage and launch methods, they have discussed as many as a dozen improved versions.

Based on the principle that it doesn't cost money to open their mouths, these guys have thrown out all kinds of magically modified versions. If Huang Haojie didn't let them stop in moderation in the end, there would be more improved models.
