Chapter 678: Incredible Engine
Standing on the top of the shrine hill and looking down at the quiet Tokyo below, a fallen leaf fell on Wang Yi's shoulder in the cold January wind.
"It's windy."
It seemed that as Wang Yi finished speaking, a cold wind blew, rolling up large pieces of fallen leaves, spiraling straight into the sky.
Although the program arranged by Da Piaoliang was very interesting and she had come up with a lot of fun things, the time was almost up.
No matter it's an alien attack or the development of another world, don't stand in the way.
I built those three solar furnaces myself, and I hope they will be a great debut...
…
"What? What kind of acceleration is this? What kind of speed is this?"
"Impossible! Even if their engine is strong enough, it won't be like this!"
"Are they crazy? How far can they fly at this speed?"
"The faster the speed, the greater the acceleration, the higher the energy consumption! Are they fully loaded with oil?"
"They also have innovations in fuel? Magic heavy oil?"
"It cannot be ruled out. Magic has always had a stronger interference effect on organic matter. I didn't expect them to hide so deeply..."
“…”
On the surface, Da Piaoliang was doing a live broadcast and appeared to be quite confident and arrogant, but in fact, she was watching closely the whole time.
Even if it was just a live broadcast that Xiao Gou made casually, it was immediately transmitted to some experts.
After the plane took off, the frame-by-frame analysis began.
"There is a problem with the jet flame, but the air intake at the front is a traditional structure, so it should be correct."
"The color and appearance of the flames are a bit like their engineering robots in space. Do you think their aircraft can be used in both air and space?"
"The angle and direction of the flight are also straight into the blue sky, it's very likely!"
“Incredible…”
"I want to say it's impossible, but if it's Umbrella, then it's really possible..."
"In the past, the space shuttle had to be launched into space by rockets. Has it come to this now? It's really magical."
"The calculations for 'Don Quixote' have come out. The instantaneous acceleration is over 20G and it continues."
"More than 20G, or continuous?"
"Are they done pretending? Super soldiers..."
"Can you capture the trajectory?"
"They are moving too fast and the friction with the air generates heat which is captured by our defense satellites. They are indeed heading into space! They are still accelerating!"
"What? What speed? Can it be detected by temperature?"
“…”
In order to prevent intercontinental ballistic missiles, each country has some corresponding detection satellites, and the number of these satellites in Da Piaoliang is undoubtedly the largest.
Regardless of whether the aircraft itself is made of stealth materials and structures, when the speed increases in the atmosphere it will cause temperature to rise.
The resistance of the air will manifest itself in the form of heat.
But normally, today's stealth fighters can also suppress this temperature under normal supersonic conditions.
But now they have been discovered by the satellite that was originally used to capture intercontinental missiles, which is really confusing.
"There are captured satellite images!"
"Show it to me now!"
Low-orbit satellites circle the earth more than ten times a day, so it is definitely impossible to conduct fixed-point observations. In this case, it can be said that they are quite lucky to accidentally capture Umbrella's traces. They do not have Umbrella's more than 20,000 satellites.
Soon, satellite images were transmitted, and inside the atmosphere, a meteorite-like "fireball" was clearly seen rushing out of the atmosphere in the opposite direction!
The first cosmic speed is 7.9 km per second, which is more than Mach 20!
This Temo appeared on a plane?
Even though some people had guessed this before, when it really happened , they were still shocked.
"How could it be possible... How can we maintain this high speed after the atmosphere becomes thinner?"
"Purely by inertia?"
"Although the resistance is reduced as the atmosphere becomes thinner, but..."
"They must increase their speed to a sufficient level in the atmosphere, and then use their space propulsion engines to connect with each other when they reach the rarefied area. Theoretically, it is possible, but it is too difficult to do."
"What kind of engine material is this? It's such a waste..."
Currently, the flight principle of almost all top fighter jets requires a front air intake, and the air is burned, pressurized and injected through the turbine engine to form thrust.
In addition, the wings of the aircraft also need to rely on air to provide lift.
Therefore, most aircraft have corresponding flight altitude restrictions.
Even most missiles are like this.
Therefore, some reconnaissance drones that can fly at ultra-high altitudes where the atmosphere is thin are almost invincible.
But at this time, Umbrella's fighter was obviously not like that. The terrifying thrust and acceleration were really incomprehensible and even unreasonable!
If an airplane of this size can easily fly into space, then why do we need rockets to push it? They also need oxidizers, which consume a lot of energy.
I guess I made something this big just for fun?!
The theory of aerospace planes has always existed, and in fact has always been studied, but the difficulty is indeed too great, and all aspects need to be taken into consideration.
Switching of engines, materials, modes, etc.
And even if normal means were designed, it wouldn't be this kind of acceleration!
It can only be said that it is the combination of Umbrella's materials, technology, and pilot strength that has achieved this effect!
"Moreover, with this kind of acceleration and speed, the energy consumption is also quite high! Although their fighter planes are larger than traditional fighter planes, their fuel reserves are too exaggerated. What is the combustion efficiency of their magic heavy oil?!"
An aircraft expert pounded the table with his hand, he just couldn't figure it out.
"Their flames are really not like oil, judging by the color. They are too clean and full."
"And what's that blue light on your back?"
"It can't be electricity, right?"
"Don't tell such a joke..."
Several aviation experts first made a joke, but then calmed down and became silent.
Even if Umbrella used magic to optimize some kind of fuel and achieved a structure that they could not understand.
But flying at such a high speed and over such a distance still exceeds the limit of chemical energy, bastard...
“It can’t be nuclear energy.”
One expert gave a dry laugh.
nuclear energy!
In fact, the miniaturized use of nuclear energy has existed since the Cold War.
However, if nuclear power is to be used safely, it still cannot get rid of the limitation of boiling water. For example, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers still rely on nuclear energy to drive steam turbines.
This is also why the Great Beauty started with steam catapults, because it is readily available and the technology is mature.
There are also corresponding blueprints for nuclear-powered missiles and torpedoes. In theory, they can be miniaturized to this extent without the need to boil water.
A nuclear reactor heating up the air jet is a nuclear-powered missile, right? Not to mention the pollution, in theory it can be this small if there is no need for cumbersome steam cycle equipment.
The same is true for torpedoes.
But the question is, what about security?
A plan for nuclear-powered aircraft was put forward decades ago, and the HTRE-3 engine theoretically has a range of tens of thousands of kilometers.
But in the end, all related research was stopped because there was no way to guarantee the safety of the personnel, and the particles were scattered almost wherever they flew.
"If Umbrella has developed a material that has a strong isolation effect against nuclear radiation, then this is not impossible!"
"this……"
After considering this incredible possibility, many experts in related fields fell silent.
The aircraft parameters, speed, and energy consumption are all here, and now nuclear energy is the only possibility!
"Didn't they launch three? How come only two made it into space?"
Someone else discovered a new point.
"This..., judging from the directions of these two planes, one is flying towards Japan and South Korea, and the other is heading straight for the mainland. So the other one might be targeting our fleet in the atmosphere?"
"Heading straight to the mainland, are you planning a decapitation operation? Let's notify them first. No matter what, no matter how powerful these three planes are, even if they carry nuclear bombs, they can't win this confrontation!"
"Haha, just three planes. No matter how advanced they are, there's nothing to worry about..."
