The privately owned super airship took off. Only a few minutes after the super airship appeared, the U.S. intelligence agency had already received the news.
This guy is too big and conspicuous. Even in satellite pictures, he looks like a super big guy.
The United States then began to track the airship, but when the airship reached an altitude of 50,000 meters, the U.S. intelligence agency immediately became serious.
"What did Zhang Fan do again? This airship is too big. And at this altitude, 50,000 meters above sea level, our plane can't even fly to this height..."
A military expert couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the intelligence sent. Soon they roughly knew the data of the airship based on the pictures.
Airships are not an advanced thing. They have been eliminated long ago. After all, this thing is too fragile in front of fighter jets.
But now, facing such a super airship, no one dares to say that this thing is useless.
"If the thickness of the airbag of this airship reaches fifty meters, its load capacity can reach one hundred thousand tons. If it is used in the military, bombing can be carried out with control of the air..."
When a young military expert mentioned this possibility, everyone took a breath of cold air.
One hundred thousand tons, the maximum load of our B2 stealth bomber is only 23 tons. Even based on the maximum load, the carrying capacity of this airship is equivalent to 4,347 B2s.
Using this thing to bomb the enemy, you can imagine that if 4347 B2s bombed the enemy, the scene would be absolutely shocking.
"If you build a 100,000-ton super bomb and throw it from an airship."
A weapons expert said something so imaginative that everyone almost collapsed. Damn, how dare you think about it.
If there really is such a super bomb, is it still a conventional weapon? You must know that the Little Boy atomic bomb dropped on Japan was only 30,000 tons.
In other words, this bomb is equivalent to three little boys.
Although the imagination is wide open, after seeing this airship, everyone thinks that this imagination may actually come true.
There is no technical problem at all in building a 100,000-ton super bomb. It's just a matter of loading more explosives.
No one knows how powerful it will be when so many explosives explode. This is because there has never been such an experiment in human history.
"This bastard..."
Looking at the super airship, American military experts couldn't help scolding Zhang Fan. It would be crazy if this thing was put into military use.
"Keep track of this airship at all times. Mobilize all your forces to obtain relevant technology of the airship. To be able to send such a large airship to an altitude of 50,000 meters, new technology must be used."
The person in charge gave the order directly. The airship technology is simple, so simple that even ordinary people can make one.
But the simpler something is, the less simple it is. Being able to make simple things perfect requires powerful technology.
For example, the airships currently being flown by private citizens have reached a maximum altitude of 50,000 meters. They are currently hovering at an altitude of 40,000 meters.
Letting such a behemoth rise so high requires a lot of technology. The first is the material. The airship relies on helium to increase its lift, so it can carry more weight. The material of the airship itself must be light and strong.
This is what private airships are flying now. The carbon fiber skeleton is very light. In addition to carbon fiber, the most important thing is the airbag material.
The new airbag material is described as being as light as a feather. It is not only light, but also has excellent performance. Coupled with the latest public welfare, this is the super airship.
At an altitude of 40,000 meters, the airflow is thin, the solar radiation is very strong, and the temperature is relatively low. At such a high altitude, if you want to maintain internal conditions, you need to have strong technical reserves.
Super photovoltaic films provide energy, and light-guiding optical fibers not only provide light, but also allow people to enjoy the same environment as on the ground.
At the same time, there is an independent ecosystem inside, and the operation of this system keeps the interior of the airship in a very good state.
The airship took off, and the United States was not the only country that captured the airship. Many countries captured this super big guy, even China.
But no one said anything. They just used satellites and other reconnaissance equipment to monitor this super airship to see what it was doing.
Inside the airship, at an altitude of 45,000 meters, the small animals are in very good physical condition. There are not only various animals in the airship, but also various plants.
A large number of intelligent robots are busy on the airship. These robots take care of these animals and plants and collect various data. Only with these experimental data can we better find the shortcomings of the airship.
"The hover experiment is over and all indicators are performing normally..."
After 24 hours of hovering experiments, all performances were normal.
"Enter the next stage of experiments. Conduct flight experiments..."
The chief designer gave the order, and the huge spiral of the super airship spun in the sky.
Driven by the huge spiral warps, the speed of the airship slowly increased, and soon reached its maximum speed. Two hundred kilometers per hour, which is the speed of this super airship, and the large number of spiral warps provide huge thrust.
Although the airship is large, it looks like a flying ant in the open sky. The airship adjusts its direction and flies directly towards the Atlantic Ocean.
The open sea is the best place for experiments. Even if there is an accident, the loss will be minimized.
The U.S. Intelligence Agency, look at this airship. Some people really want to launch a missile to knock the airship down, and then drag the entire airship back and study it carefully.
But they knew that they were just thinking about it. This airship now has countless national monitors. If the United States really dares to take it down, it will completely fall out with the private leader.
When Zhang Fan takes revenge, no one knows what he will lose. The most important thing is that although this thing looks scary, it cannot threaten the United States at all.
Such a big thing, and it's not invisible, is just a living target. Fifty thousand meters in the air may seem very high, but it's nothing to a missile.
It doesn't have any defensive capabilities. As for arming it with weapons, that's a bit ridiculous. How many defensive weapons can you install on an armed airship? After installing the defensive weapons, how many things can you bring?
This thing can be brought down with just one missile. At such a high altitude, not even fighter jets can escort it.
The second thing is the pitiful speed, which is too slow. It is also suitable for carrying out large-scale carpet bombing after occupying air supremacy, or as a transport plane to transport supplies.
Although it does not pose a threat, the future of this thing is very big. Once the technology is mature, it can completely change many of the current patterns. Because the transportation times of airships are the lowest among the currently known means of transportation, including ships, they cannot match the transportation of airships.
