Chapter 424 Hypersonic flight test project

The experts present did not object to the words of the head of their national aerospace department.

Because this is the fact that China is now very strong in aerospace. Not to mention other things, just today, China can complete the launch of the core module and experimental module of the space station in one day and complete docking. This is no longer something that an ordinary space power can do. You know, this can be completed in one day!

Therefore, many people present now do not think that China will really build a giant weighing more than 800 tons by then. They are not sure that China will really not be able to create it. After all, there are too many miracles created by China.

In addition, they are very sure of China's various infrastructure capabilities on the ground, so no one can guarantee whether China will apply this capability to the space industry.

However, they also knew that China was unable to stop the launch of this space station, and even other countries participating in this project were unable to stop it. After all, the countries that could participate in this project were not small countries.

Fortunately, Western Continent International, as their bald eagle ally, has not participated in China's space station plan except one or two.

This also made them feel relieved. If those countries really participated in this project in China, it would be a problem for them!

At the same time, they are also very clear that the reason why these Western mainland countries have not made any statement yet is not that China is a problem, but that these countries are waiting for their attitude. If they do not come up with corresponding plans, then these countries will definitely join China's projects.

After all, as long as you are not a fool, you can see how big it is. This is related to the status of various countries in the future in the future of mankind!

In fact, the bald eagle at this time has no good way except to come up with its own space plan.

And if it is a practical action, it is not just announcing the public as before.

So, after a while, someone in the conference room finally stood up and said, "Sir! With the current situation, we have no other good way to follow up on the space station project in China, and our plan must be larger than the project in China. Even at the lowest level, we must have a level of China."

The person in charge also nodded. After all, he thought so, but when he thought about the funds needed to build this space station worth nearly 1,000 tons, he suddenly felt that he was overwhelmed.

Because the funds needed to build this space station must be very large during the period, at least it will cost hundreds of billions or even trillions of dollars. With such a huge amount of funds, even their country, as the most powerful country in the world, cannot be used at once.

In other words, for a long time in the future, they will argue with these allies in the Western Continent to achieve the funds to be paid by the participating countries.

On that day, the Bald Eagle's meeting lasted for five or six hours. It was known that the meeting was the introduction at eight or nine o'clock in the evening, and it was better to come up with the basic framework.

And just the next day, they contacted the senior management first. After obtaining permission, they immediately announced the plan and then began to contact countries in the Western Continent...

In short, with the construction of China's space station, many people were suddenly anxious. After all, although the Bald Eagle hoped that China would invest most of its funds in space, they would not watch it. In this regard, China has left them too much. After all, the space industry is related to the future of mankind.

Wang Bin naturally would not pay attention to the situation on the other side of the ocean, after all, he has been busy these days!

Just the day after the rocket was launched, Wang Bin and the others began to conduct a series of inspections on the Phoenix-M1 aircraft. After all, the previous flight was a double-three standard, and it was not the first subsonic flight.

Therefore, the pressure on the fuselage and the fuselage during flight is naturally not comparable to ordinary flights.

Fortunately, this Phoenix-M1 aircraft from Tiangong Technology is excellent in design, materials selection and manufacturing, although this inspection is much stricter than the inspection after the first test flight.

However, during the inspection, Wang Bin and the others did not find any problems with the plane. In fact, this also shows that the design of their plane was very successful. Perhaps the only flaw is that the running and landing tracks required for the plane were too long.

With the completion of the inspection of this aircraft, it was a week after the second test flight, so Wang Bin and the others immediately began to arrange the third test flight.

This test flight is the biggest test for this aircraft, that is, this test flight, the aircraft will conduct maximum speed and extreme altitude test flights.

You should know that according to the design data, the maximum height of this aircraft can reach more than 40,000 meters! In terms of speed, it can reach Mach 6.0 or above. At such an altitude and speed, the aircraft and the crew on the aircraft will definitely bear pressure that ordinary people can't imagine.

So one day before the test flight, Mr. Qiu and his team carefully selected the best pilots in the base in the base, and explained to them the dangers and challenges they had to face during this test flight, and allowed them to withdraw without any pressure.

However, as Chinese soldiers, even though they knew the dangers and challenges that they had to bear in this test flight, they still accepted the challenge without hesitation. Even before the test flight, they had already written a suicide note.

The next day, according to the official meteorological observatory, the weather today was very good, and even the weather in most parts of the country was very good, and it was a good weather for the test flight just now.

As the plane took off, Wang Bin, Mr. Qiu and others stared at the display screen in the tower, especially when the speed of the plane exceeded Mach 3 and the altitude exceeded 30,000 meters.

Speed ​​Mach 3.1, Mach 3.2, Mach 3.4, Mach 3.8, Mach 4.0, Mach 4.5, 5.1.........

Flying altitude is 30,000 meters, 31,000 meters, 35,000 meters.........

As the aircraft's speed became faster and higher and higher, finally when the aircraft's speed reached Mach 5.8, the engine suddenly stopped, and the aircraft's speed did not increase.

This surprised Wang Bin and others. However, when they saw that the altitude of the aircraft had reached an astonishing altitude of 45,000 meters, Wang Bin and others were relieved because they knew that at this altitude, since the oxygen content in the atmosphere was already very low and was not enough to support the engine's operation, the engine would stop running and shut down.
