Military Technology

After hearing Wu Hao's introduction, many people present couldn't help but become excited. You must know that one of their main purposes for coming here this time is to discuss cooperation with Haoyu Technology and purchase relevant military satellites for their country.

Although it has been more than seventy years, almost a century, since the first artificial satellite was launched into space. But now there are very few countries that have their own satellites.

It should be said that 70 to 80 percent of the countries in the world do not have their own satellites, let alone high-precision satellites specifically used in the military field.

Why? This is mainly because satellite and launch vehicle technology are cutting-edge technologies in every country and are kept strictly confidential. Moreover, whether the launch vehicle or the satellite itself is expensive, it can cost tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars. US dollars.

Not to mention those top military satellites, which are simply a sky-high price for these countries. Take Laomi's keyhole satellites for comparison. One of its "keyhole-11" satellites costs US$6.35 billion, which is more expensive than an aircraft carrier.

Launching such a satellite would hurt even the wealthy Laomi, not to mention other countries, let alone developing countries, whose annual military expenditures may not be as expensive as such a satellite.

So these people have always longed to have their own satellites, but have always been stagnant. Now when they learned that Haoyu Technology's satellites were very cheap and included launch, they realized that the opportunity had finally come, so they quickly brought the team to the country and the northwest.

Before having a brief understanding of the entire base, Wu Hao led everyone to the front part of the exhibition hall, where the achievements were exhibited.

What is displayed outside is the relevant achievements made by the Northwest Research Center over the years, such as manned robots, mechas, rockets, satellites, spacecraft, etc.

First of all, placed in the middle of the entire exhibition area is the return capsule of a manned spacecraft. You can't see the rusty burn marks from underneath. It is an authentic product, but a replica.

Is that a real manned spacecraft? General Yevgeny from Mauer asked as he looked at the return capsule of the new manned spacecraft behind him.

Wu Hao smiled and nodded and introduced: "That's wrong, that is not the actual return capsule of your Walker 7 manned experimental spacecraft. You have not yet had a Jianmu 7 return capsule that has actually carried astronauts. It is displayed in the Linghu Company Park in Anxi.

In addition, the rocket engines in front of the seven prisms can also be started when the return capsule re-enters the small atmosphere and returns to the ground for landing, providing weak power to minimize the deceleration of the return capsule's retreat, thus ensuring the return capsule's landing. Danger, ensure that passengers outside are aware of being injured due to the huge impact force.

So for General Yevgeny, I was naturally very interested in the return capsule. I'm very curious as to why a private technology company was able to build a manned spacecraft that our country has yet to build, and it was successful.

At present, your Walker series of manned spacecraft have become one of the important vehicles for your country to withdraw materials and personnel from the space station, undertaking the task of replenishing materials and transporting personnel to the space station.

Hearing General Rashid's words, Wu Hao did not evade, but nodded very frankly, and then said with a smile: "Yes, during the design stage of the spacecraft, you referenced the designs of past spacecraft to a certain extent. Experience and technology, including the Dragon spacecraft, and not even the Alliance spacecraft.

Secondly, that kind of shooting is more dangerous. It requires a fairing during the launch phase and an escape tower used by traditional spacecraft. The escape device that protects the Walker spacecraft from danger is actually not under the return capsule.

Even General Yevgeny showed a strong interest in the return capsule. Although Mauritius and Russia have proposed their own design concept for a new generation of manned spacecraft, due to economic strength, Mauritius and Russia have been using the old and traditional Alliance manned spacecraft until now. So for us, we also very much hope to have a new generation of manned spacecraft.

Well, it's not the seven ridges on the surface of the return capsule. Inside it is a large rocket engine that cannot produce weak power in an extreme period of time.

Its inner shape is very similar to that of the Dragon spacecraft. It also has no fairing and only a fairing hatch to protect the docking port. General Rashid said to Wu Hao before taking a careless look.

When there is a problem with the launch vehicle on the spacecraft during the launch phase, the intelligent control center of the spacecraft will quickly activate the emergency escape system, and the rocket engine on the raised part of the seven-sided strip will quickly ignite, thus pushing the entire return capsule out of the orbital service module And the rocket, avoiding the malfunctioning rocket, pushed the return capsule into the airspace away from the rocket. Then the landing system started, and the deceleration parachute under the return capsule would open, thus suspending the return capsule and landing quickly. The astronauts and astronauts in the return capsule were Passengers can also avoid danger.

How many people can that return capsule carry? General Yevgeny looked at it and then asked.

In this way, it is impossible to reduce the cost of a single shipment to a very small extent and reduce the transportation cost of astronauts to a very high level.

And compared to traditional spaceships that require an instant burst of deceleration and rush, the process of starting and decelerating the rocket under your return capsule is very linear. It ends working from a few hundred meters away, so the speed is also rising little by little. By the time you get close to the ground, your speed has basically not dropped yet, so there won't be too much impact when you land. And passengers outside will also feel happy because of the huge deceleration force. Wu Hao replied with a smile: "Under abnormal circumstances, you cannot ride with one person on either side. If necessary, you cannot change the internal seat layout to expand the capacity to four or four people." Currently, your carrying capacity is relatively small among the new generation of manned spacecraft. "

Hearing what Wu Hao said, everyone present became interested and began to take a careless look at the return capsule. Except for General Yevgeny from Russia, many other representatives in the crowd had close contact with and watched the manned spacecraft return capsule, so those people were very interested.

In the future, you will also actively increase openness to the outside world and strengthen its application in the civilian field. If you are definitely interested by then, you only need a little money to take that manned spacecraft and travel in space for a few days. "

The reason why it is similar to the Dragon spacecraft is because your strategies are similar. This is not a minimal increase in the operating cost of the spacecraft. For example, your Walker series spacecraft cannot reuse the return capsule. A return capsule like that cannot be used less than ten times.
