Military Technology

In the future, if our flying-wing reusable launch vehicle technology is successfully developed, after solving the problem of cost control, this flying-wing reusable rocket technology will also be applied to the second Jianmu 9 rocket. Above the rocket. In this way, the entire Jianmu 9 launch vehicle can be recycled and reused except for the ‘upper stage’ in the fairing that cannot be recycled, so that transportation costs can be greatly reduced. "

　　 Hearing his words, the discussion on the scene suddenly became louder. A leader next to him immediately asked, "How about the carrying capacity of this Jianmu 9 rocket?"

　　 This issue naturally attracted the attention of others present. I am afraid that the thrust of such a large rocket is not small.

　　 Wu Hao replied with a smile: "This Jianmu 9 carrier rocket has a low-Earth orbit carrying capacity of 42 tons, a geosynchronous transfer orbit can reach 20 tons, and a ground-fire (Mars) transfer orbit has a carrying capacity of about 8 tons."

　　 hiss...

　　 Hearing his introduction, someone at the scene couldn't help but sucked in a cold breath, and was really taken aback by such a powerful carrying capacity.

　　 In this way, this Jianmu 9 launch vehicle is twice as long as our five, and it is almost the same as our 921 rocket. Some experts sighed.

Qin Xinghe said to Wu Hao: "The low-Earth orbit can reach forty tons. This carrying capacity is considered outstanding among all commercial launch vehicles. It can be used for most of your space launch missions, including your commercial launch. Space station construction task."

　　 He didn't show any expression of surprise, because he had seen relevant information about this rocket in the report a long time ago. At that time, he was also taken aback. Now it is naturally much better.

　　 Wu Hao nodded and replied: "Yes, several loads in this commercial space station in the future will need it for transportation. In addition, some of our other important tasks also need its participation."

Um? Hearing the second half of Wu Hao's words, everyone was taken aback and then reacted.

　　 A bald expert in the crowd nodded and said: "Indeed, the twenty-ton Earth-moon transfer orbit is enough for the construction of your lunar scientific research station."

　　 More than eight tons of ground fire transfer orbital transport capacity, I am afraid you are also planning to prepare for the exploration of Mars. Another fatter expert next to him spoke.

　　Wu Hao just smiled at the words of these experts and did not answer. However, his reaction was understood by everyone as acquiescence, which also made many people on the scene sigh with emotion. It had long been thought that Wu Hao and the others had great ambitions, but they still underestimated them.

　　 When do you plan to fly this rocket for the first time? Asked the white-haired old expert in the crowd.

Wu Hao smiled and replied: "I am afraid that we will have to wait until the end of next year to the next year at the earliest. Next year, our main mission will be manned space missions. Moreover, our current Jianmu 7 rocket's carrying capacity is not bad, and it can meet the requirements. Our series of launch missions."

Hearing what he said, everyone was still very surprised. After all, large rockets like this usually take five years and ten years to produce results. I didn’t expect Wu Hao and the others to do so quickly. Is this a commercial company? The efficiency is so high, is it true that all the work is overtime, just like the rumors of the outside world?

　　 After visiting the launch vehicle model exhibition area, basically all the furnishings in the hall have been visited. But in the end, everyone's eyes stayed on a model of an aerospace vehicle displayed in a very remote corner of a booth.

　　 The entire model is only twenty centimeters long. Under so many large objects, it looks very small and easily overlooked. But the hall is full of experts in aerospace systems, even if it is something inconspicuous, as long as it is dazzling, it will definitely attract the attention of these experts.

　　The aerospace vehicle that these professional eyes are focusing on is a bit like a space shuttle, but not all. It is more like an airplane integrated with a rocket, but it does not look like an airplane.

　　 It has two wings, a pair of fins and a vertical tail at the tail, the whole fuselage is slender, and there is a hanging window in the nose part. It can be seen that this aerospace vehicle can sit on people.

　　 This is a good thing, Xiao Wu, since you have shown it here, you should not be afraid to let us see it. Zou Huanyi laughed and joked at him.

The experts next to 　　 laughed after hearing the words. Qin Xinghe said, "What's the matter, let us introduce it. I don't know that you are hiding such a project."

　　 Obviously, the experts and leaders present are full of interest in this aerospace vehicle.

　　 In the face of the expectant gaze of everyone, Wu Hao deserves to bite the bullet, take out the model on the platform, and then show it to everyone and introduce it with a smile.

　　"This is an aerospace vehicle that we have developed. It is a bit like those space orbiters developed by various countries at present, with the same basic structure.

　　 The only difference is that our aerospace vehicle is large in size and can carry people inside. In addition to the two pilots and co-pilots in the cockpit, it can also carry ten to fourteen members.

　　Like the orbiter, it is also launched into space by a rocket, after completing its orbital mission, and then gliding back to the ground. "

　　 is the same as the space shuttle? The bald expert asked him.

　　Wu Hao smiled and shook his head, then erected the aerospace vehicle and said to everyone: "No~www.readwn.com~ is different from the space shuttle, it is smaller and slender than the space shuttle.

　　The way it launches is not relying on external fuel tanks and boosters, but a first-level rocket and booster rocket are installed at its tail.

　　 To put it plainly, it is to install the Jianmu 9 heavy rocket's first-stage rocket and multiple boosters at its tail to launch it into the air. After reaching the predetermined altitude, the booster and the first-stage rocket were turned off and the aerospace vehicle began to ignite autonomously and continued to rise, finally entering space.

　　 In fact, everyone can understand that we have merged the two-stage rocket of the launch vehicle with the flying-wing multiplexing design structure and the manned spacecraft to form an aerospace vehicle. "

　　 After listening to Wu Hao's explanation, everyone understood it, and then carefully looked at the model of the aerospace vehicle in his hand.

　　 Very good idea. Zou Huanyi complimented, and then said with a smile: "At present, all countries are engaged in orbital vehicles, and there are already very successful representatives, such as the famous X47B of Lao Mi.

　　 Although many people have thought about using this orbiter to manned flights, there is no such thing as a practice. It seems that the only thing that resembles you is the interstellar spacecraft belonging to Musk.

　　 But compared with its interstellar spacecraft, I think aerospace pilots like you are more suitable for commercial use. "

　　 Hearing Zou Huanyi's praise, everyone on the scene nodded one after another. Obviously, Musk's interstellar spacecraft has taken too much stride, and Wu Hao's approach of trotting step by step is more suitable for development.
