In the most mysterious scientific research base in China, a huge metal box was carefully opened.
Everyone is full of curiosity about the contents of this box. They don't know what is in the box, and they don't know the origin of the box either.
The escort breathed a sigh of relief after delivering the box to this base. This box was delivered from a private person. The most top-secret route was used along the way, and the level of confidentiality was very high.
The metal box is slowly opened after several consecutive information verifications. The box is equipped with a self-destruction device. The system above will seriously damage the person who opens the box, and it will self-destruct immediately if there is an unexpected situation.
The box was slowly opened, and when it was opened, everyone finally knew what it was.
An aerospace engine, this engine is as beautiful as a work of art. The whole engine looks a bit delicate, with a large nozzle, but the combustion chamber behind it is very small, which looks very weird.
Next to the engine, there was a simple manual. Mr. Song picked up the manual and read it carefully. After reading it, Mr. Song's eyes widened.
"How is this possible?"
Mr. Song's face was full of shock. He quickly ran to the rear of the engine and looked inside. When he saw the inside, Mr. Song took a deep breath.
There is no combustion chamber and no turbofan. There is only an ion injector.
"Quick, be careful and arrange experiments immediately."
Mr. Song became excited. If the data in the instruction manual were true, then it would be too different for Mr. Song.
The engine was sent to the test bench and directly connected to the power supply. After adjusting the voltage, Mr. Song started the engine according to the instructions.
"call……"
The blue airflow spurted directly from the tail. The powerful airflow had no temperature, but was full of thrust.
Seeing this thrust, the surrounding researchers also became curious.
"increase thrust"
Mr. Song continued to issue orders, and as the thrust controller slowly advanced, the thrust of the engine continued to increase. This terrifying thrust made everyone take a breath of cold air.
It's so terrifying, the thrust is so terrifying. No one thought that such a small engine could have such terrifying thrust.
"Continue to increase"
Mr. Song's face was full of excitement. He was so excited that he finally had a big heart. And this heart far exceeded Mr. Song's expectations.
This big heart is awesome. Mr. Song knows about the super battery project. The sixth-generation fighter aircraft developed by Mr. Song uses super batteries as energy source.
But super batteries are not enough. China is also developing this kind of electronic injection engine. Ion engines are also under development, but their performance cannot meet the requirements at all.
Now the power of this engine far meets all these needs. With this engine, everything is solved.
After several hours of experiments, some basic data were tested. Looking at these basic data, Mr. Song was very excited.
"Great. With this engine, our sixth-generation aircraft can finally take shape. And it will be better than before."
Mr. Song said excitedly.
"Mr. Song, there is more good news. This is the information sent by the materials department. These new materials can be used in new fighters."
The person in charge of the materials department handed the information to Mr. Song. Looking at the information, Mr. Song's eyes lit up completely.
"Come on, laboratory, our plan needs to be drastically changed."
Mr. Song said excitedly that all the researchers took action. However, the experiment on the engine did not stop and was directly fixed on the test bench for durability experiments.
Durability experiments take a long time. In terms of service life, the ion engine has huge advantages. Without a combustion chamber, and with the use of new materials, the theoretical safe life can be as high as 50,000 hours.
This kind of service life is a geometric increase. You must know that the engine life of China's main fighter jets is less than 10,000 hours.
The longer the service life, the lower the maintenance cost. This is very important for a fighter jet.
A fighter jet must not only have outstanding performance, but also be cost-effective. Only in this way can the country afford to equip and maintain it.
In the laboratory, Mr. Song led everyone to get busy. The research and development of the sixth-generation aircraft has been going on for a long time. Now that there have been breakthroughs in engines and new materials, they can optimize some plans.
"The shell can be replaced with new materials, so that the ultimate speed can exceed Mach 7."
"The original twin-engine design can now be changed to a single-engine. With such thrust, one engine is enough."
"This time we can take off and land vertically. The strength of the landing gear must be strengthened, but new materials can fully satisfy it."
In the laboratory, the plan is being modified rapidly. The computer used here is a quantum chip computer, and the computer chip was purchased from the Zhang Group.
Not only that, virtual reality technology is also used here. Therefore, the plan was modified very quickly. In just two days, the modified plan was calculated and verified on the quantum computer.
With the advancement of technology, many research and development times have also been shortened. Without supercomputers and virtual technology, the modification of this plan would take at least several months.
Looking at the latest modified plan, Song Lao swallowed his saliva. The modified fighter jet had already left the original plan far behind.
The sixth-generation super-stealth fighter is a single-engine heavy-duty fighter. The ion engine allows this fighter to reach a top speed of Mach 7.
Super batteries are used for energy supply, and the super batteries are reasonably distributed around the area. The combat radius is 16,000 kilometers.
This combat radius can be longer, and it only needs to be hung on the secondary battery. But it is generally not used at all, because this radius can cover the entire United States.
With a super speed of Mach 7, if necessary, it can attack anywhere in the United States in two hours from China. Not to mention Europe, it can take more than an hour.
In addition to these, the magazine of this fighter is also relatively large. After removing an engine, a lot of space is saved, and the use of new materials makes the space more reasonable.
The bomb load of one such fighter is equivalent to the bomb load of two F22s. The more bombs it can carry, the stronger its combat effectiveness will be.
It adopts the latest stealth design and stealth layer materials. These are the biggest highlights. The biggest highlight is that this aircraft is a true aerospace fighter.
Because it is equipped with an ion engine, this engine can fly directly in space. When there is no mission, it can even float in space, just like a satellite.
If there is a need for combat, you can attack the enemy directly from space. This is the most terrifying thing.
"This fighter jet can serve for at least thirty years."
Mr. Song said excitedly. The performance of this fighter jet is far beyond modern technology. Mr. Song is confident that even thirty years later, this fighter jet may not lag behind.
If super batteries and ion engines cannot be developed, no country may be able to produce such a fighter jet in fifty years. Even if there is only one squadron of such a fighter jet, it is enough to form a huge strategic deterrent, and its scientific value is even greater.
