The Rise of Space Technology Chapter 189

   Chapter 189, much simpler than building an aircraft carrier

   "An aerospace carrier is not as difficult as an aerospace fighter. It has anti-gravity devices, and it flies in the sky. It is much simpler than building an aircraft carrier."

   Tang Peng said with a smile immediately after hearing this.

He is not talking nonsense. Originally everyone thought that building an air carrier would be a very difficult super project, a big project, but when they really saw the power of anti-gravity technology, the scientists and engineers of the project team went through rigorous After discussions and arguments, it was found to be simpler and easier than building an aircraft carrier.

  Because the aircraft carrier has to sail at sea, it still involves many disciplines and fields related to shipbuilding. These disciplines and fields alone are enough to cause headaches for a long time, and detailed planning and involvement are required.

   But the helicarrier does not need it, because it flies directly in the sky and space, and there is no need to consider these factors at all.

   What it needs to consider is how to support the continuous work of its anti-gravity device, to ensure the safety, reliability and continuity of the anti-gravity device, so that it does not fall from the sky.

   And because of the existence of anti-gravity technology, the biggest problem that the aircraft needs to consider, the problem of overcoming gravity has been solved, and the other problems are small problems.

  Like an aircraft carrier, its design is largely limited by the size of the volume and the internal structure, and the aircraft carrier does not need to worry about these.

   In terms of power, hybrid power is adopted.

  An anti-gravity device provides anti-gravity to overcome gravity, and then installs several aero-engines developed and produced by itself as auxiliary power for propulsion. If it enters space, there are several rocket engines as propulsion power.

  Because there is no need to consider the factor of gravity, it is not considered a behemoth, but the use of self-developed aero engines and rocket engines is enough to provide enough thrust, so that the speed of the air carrier will not be worse than the average fighter.

   The original anti-gravity device requires a lot of electricity, and it is obviously unrealistic to use batteries. Therefore, nuclear power is directly installed, and nuclear power is used to generate electricity and provide powerful electricity and energy.

These are the core designs. If they are placed on an aircraft carrier, there are many factors that need to be considered. Because of the limitations of volume, mass and drainage, plus the need to build fighter planes and enough combat personnel, its design needs to be There are many factors to consider.

  The sky carrier is different.

   As long as the anti-gravity device can provide strong enough anti-gravity to allow it to overcome gravity, it can be made very large, and the appearance and internal structure can be simpler and safer.

  In terms of security, because the aircraft carrier is fighting on the sea, it needs to consider the attack from the air and the sea, and if it is too close to the land, also consider the land attack.

   Therefore, it is necessary to comprehensively consider various aspects, and also need to equip multiple auxiliary warships, submarines, etc.

   But the helicarrier does not need to consider many factors.

When an air carrier is in combat, it flies directly into space. The weapons that can attack targets in space are very limited. Except for large intercontinental missiles and attacks from space, there is nothing at all. Able to affect the air carrier.

   You can't fly into space at all with an ordinary plane, and you can't even reach its shadow. The safety can be greatly increased, and there are very few places to consider.

   This is also the strength of the helicarrier. It is in space. For traditional weapons and equipment and combat methods, it is a general existence that reduces dimensions.

   This is like when you lose air dominance, the other side's fighter jets keep dropping bombs on your head unscrupulously, but your artillery can't hit the other side at all.

  The existence of an air carrier is no longer the right to dominate the air, but the right to dominate the space.

  The air carrier can not only carry a large number of aerospace fighters, but also can carry a large number of missiles and bombs to attack you directly from the sky.

  The air carrier can also launch attacks on all space targets in the sky, clean up the space at the first time, and make you completely lose your eyes in space.

   But you have no way to take this air carrier.

   Your fighter plane cannot fly into space and pose no threat to it.

   In addition to the intercontinental missiles that can enter space, other air-to-air, ground-to-ground, low-altitude and other missiles can use it in any way.

   But the missiles on the helicarrier can easily intercept the ICBMs you launch, and you still have no threat to it.

   As for other weapons, it has absolutely no effect or effect.

   These factors all determine that building an air carrier is actually much simpler and easier than building an aircraft carrier.

   So much so that everyone directly launched a nuclear-powered aerospace carrier, using nuclear power to provide energy for anti-gravity and aerospace carrier, and aero-engine and rocket engine to provide auxiliary power.

   After this arrangement is made, other design aspects will be even simpler, the only ones that cannot be attack systems, defense systems, personnel safety systems, and survival systems.

   And because the internal space is large enough, the design can be done with ease. Even though everyone is designing and building an air carrier for the first time, the demonstration and design are still completed quickly.

  As for the faster construction, the aircraft carrier has to consider the use of special materials and the like. In addition to the radiation and the gravity-free environment in space, the aircraft carrier needs to consider fewer other factors.

  You can directly use thick steel plates to build your shell, and you don't need to consider seawater corrosion. Ordinary steel is fully capable. In order to reduce the quality, alloy materials are used.

  What needs to be considered the most is the continuity, safety and operability of many equipment and instruments in the space environment, but in this regard, we have our own space station and have accumulated a lot of experience.

   Therefore, after some argumentation and discussion, everyone was pleasantly surprised to find that building an air carrier is even simpler than building an aircraft carrier, and it does not take too long to build.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that we have a strong fruit, there are hundreds of scientists and engineers in related majors and fields, there are thousands of related factories and enterprises, and even we have several large shipyards, with rich The construction and operation of large-scale ships, and even the genes of aircraft carrier building have been accumulated very rich.

   "It is indeed much simpler than building an aircraft carrier. This is mainly because of the anti-gravity technology. With this technology, we have almost 90% less troubles and fewer things to consider."

   "If there is no anti-gravity technology, even if we can build a powerful engine that can propel an air carrier, we probably won't be able to build an air carrier."

   "I understand now, why the fighters, bombers and the like can be built casually, and the performance of each one is very excellent and powerful, because there are so many benefits of having a strong heart."

   Liang Youying also strongly agrees with this.

  What I thought was difficult at first was found to be very simple when it was actually done. The application of anti-gravity technology solved most of the difficulties and troubles of the helicarrier.

   "I'm really looking forward to the moment when it soars up to 90,000 miles!"

  Tang Peng looked at the Kunpeng-class nuclear-powered aerospace carrier in front of him. It was really huge. Its huge body was really like a Kunpeng.

"What are you talking about?"

   At this moment, Liu Yuan walked over with a smile on his face.

   "Let's say it's easier to build a helicarrier than an aircraft carrier."

   Tang Peng replied with a smile.

   "Well, it is indeed easier to build an air carrier than an aircraft carrier, even easier than an aerospace plane."

   Liu Yuan thought about it and agreed.

   He is of course the most aware of this. The sky carrier is the beginning of the space battleship. For the mother-star civilization, it is a weapon for dimensionality reduction and does not need to be considered too much.

However, with the development of science and technology, once it enters the interstellar era, and the war is transferred from the planet to space, it will gradually develop to interstellar warships and space warships, and there will be more things to consider at that time. The first stage is The age of cannons on ships.

The initial stage of the interstellar battleship is to be more resistant and more powerful than anyone else's attack. At that time, it really needs to be constantly tempered, constantly integrating many technologies, constantly innovating, and carrying more fighters that can be attacked. Has stronger defense capabilities and more.

   "By the way, how is the research on aerospace fighters?"

  Liang Youying looked at Liu Yuan, thought about it and asked.

This kid Liu Yuan is a genius, but he doesn't seem to have any interest in building an aerospace carrier, but is more interested in building an aerospace plane, because he feels that the technology and experience of building an aerospace plane can be used for personal rebellion in the future. Go to the top of the gravity aircraft, so you can use it to make money.

   So I also brought my own scientists and engineers to the aerospace aircraft R&D team every day, and I have the clearest understanding of the development progress of the aerospace aircraft.

"The plan has been decided. In fact, it is very simple. It is also a combination of hybrid power, anti-gravity and jet power. The most difficult thing is actually the shell material. Because the speed of the aerospace fighter is too fast, we have to re-study it. A new type of material."

"The other is the problem of too fast acceleration and deceleration overload. We also spent a lot of energy to solve this problem. Too fast acceleration and deceleration is also a headache. The overload is too large and it is very unbearable. related protections.”

  Liu Yuan thought about it and replied, the biggest problem with aerospace fighters is the many problems caused by too fast speed. After solving the two major problems, aerospace fighters can also be manufactured very quickly.

  PS: I didn't update it after I snooze in the morning. I'm asking for tickets and support. I hope everyone will come to the starting point to support Lao Niu. After all, you still have to rely on subscriptions to eat~
