Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

Chapter 503 Dual-Rotor Helicopter

In the open space outside the scientific research center, a large helicopter is being towed from the hangar by a tractor.

The shape of this helicopter is very different from ordinary helicopters, because ordinary helicopters have only one propeller, while this helicopter has two huge propellers.

And these two huge propellers are not placed on both sides of the body or at the front and rear ends like some twin-propeller aircraft, but are all placed on the roof, showing a slanted cross.

This type of helicopter is called a side-by-side twin-rotor helicopter, and only a few helicopters in the world will adopt this design.

Its propellers are specially adjusted and designed so that although the trajectories interfere with each other as they turn, they do not touch.

This design can increase the weight and stability of the helicopter, although it will reduce the flexibility of the dual-rotor helicopter.

However, considering that it is aimed at improving the carrying capacity and stability, this is not unacceptable.

Of course, this helicopter is not the product of Yan Guo's own country, but one of the harvests that Chen Xin and the others brought back from Lucia, the prototype of the twin-rotor helicopter developed in the pre-Suvian era.

According to the records found, it should be a product of the same era as the V12 helicopter, and it was the result of the development of heavy helicopters in Suvia at that time.

However, just like the V12 has not been put into production, this dual-rotor helicopter has also been shelved and has not been put into production, only the two prototypes that Chen Xin and the others have found.

The two prototypes were naturally brought back by Chen Xin and the others. One of the prototypes was handed over to the equipment laboratory for dismantling and research after being transported back, and the other was placed in the warehouse for spare after maintenance.

When Chen Xin was thinking about rescuing Lucia before, he took into account the need to quickly support Lucia, and transformed the spare prototype into the current one, intending to use it as a medical transport aircraft.

I didn't expect that the plan that was originally just a backup would actually come in handy now.

There are two high-power engines on the top of this helicopter, which were originally fuel engines, but Chen Xin transformed them into the electric engines now used by Yan Guo during the upgrade, and prepared two sets of triples for each of its engines. Isotope thermoelectric battery powered.

One set for power supply, and one set for backup.

Thanks to such a transformation, the helicopter's maximum take-off weight has soared to 60 tons, while its fuselage is only 15 tons, enabling it to take off with a maximum load of 45 tons.

Because it was originally intended to be used as a medical transport aircraft, the interior layout of the cabin refers to the design of the Mi 26. The cockpit can accommodate a six-person crew, and the cargo compartment has twenty folding seats along the cargo compartment wall. The interior space can accommodate Accommodates two Light Infantry Vehicles or two Titans.

The helicopter's cabin can accommodate eighty soldiers armed with exoskeletons, if not the Titans, but only the soldiers.

Now, in the helicopter's cabin lie two specially-suited Titans that have undergone lightweight modifications, four firepower-enhanced heavy mechs, and forty soldiers wearing protective military exoskeletons.

They will take this plane and fly directly to Lucia's capital for a rescue mission.

Because it was temporarily impossible to transfer troops, the forty soldiers on the plane were all soldiers of the special forces who originally guarded the scientific research center, and they were the only ones who were most suitable for this task. After all, they relied on the innate advantages of the scientific research center. When new equipment is developed, they are handed over to them for testing, and they are most familiar with these new equipment.

"There's only one helicopter, so there won't be any problems, right?" Tang Tang asked Chen Xin while looking at the helicopter that was nervously preparing for takeoff.

"There should be no problem. The helicopter itself was specially designed by me to be able to perform long-distance missions quickly. Considering the long-distance mission flight time, I also specially designed a pilot that can accommodate a six-person crew. The cabin is equipped with two crews, which can be rotated to avoid the fatigue caused by long-term flying." Chen Xin explained to Tang Tang, on the one hand to comfort her, but also to enhance his confidence: "And the helicopter is flying at a relatively high altitude. Relatively low, you can avoid relatively high air flow, there will be no problem.”

"I hope they can successfully complete the mission and save everyone." After listening to Chen Xin's explanation, Tang Tang nodded slightly, and then asked Chen Xin again: "As for the spread of the ancient virus over Lucia, I read it before. You seem to be very concerned about this matter, are you worried that the virus will spread to our country?"

"There are concerns in this regard, and even if the virus on Lucia's side does not spread, similar incidents in China have to be prevented." Chen Xin did not deny his worries about this matter.

Hearing Chen Xin's words, Tang Tang couldn't help but look sideways. Although he felt that Chen Xin was a little too worried, considering the current situation, he really should have been prepared.

So he asked Chen Xin: "Then what do you think? The current situation is completely different from the past, and the epidemic prevention work is not easy to do!"

Chen Xin naturally agrees with this, but he is already prepared.

He took out the health bracelet temporarily transformed with nano-molecules from his pocket and handed it to Tang Tang. Chen Xin explained to her the function of this thing.

"It would be really effective if it could be monitored in real time, but how can you guarantee that everyone will be willing to wear it?" Tang Tang seemed to think more about this, she didn't think that a bracelet alone would be enough Solve the problem: "And according to what you said, it is planned to use it to detect those infected who have been infected with the virus but have not yet developed symptoms. If there is no change in their physical condition, how can the bracelet be detected?"

"So this thing is only a preliminary plan, and the country may not be able to popularize this thing on a large scale now." Chen Xin actually considered the problem that Tang Tang said. In addition to what he knew before, he was actually also Consider upgrading and adjusting the plan of the bracelet.

However, Tang Tang was not optimistic about the scheme of the bracelet, raised the bracelet in his hand and shook his head and said, "Even if the cost of such a bracelet is low, it will be a fortune to popularize the whole country and reach everyone. Huge investment, even at the national level, is not something that can be done easily.

And considering that the bracelet has a certain monitoring function, it is also a question whether ordinary people can accept it. If possible, I suggest Xiao Chen to think of other methods. I don't think it is suitable to use this bracelet. "
