#734 - Chapter 734: Uranus is about to take off? Go to Shenfei! Strategic transport aircraft, Y-30!
"General! Bad news!" The anxious voice of General Wang came over the phone: "High-resolution satellites have detected that North America is preparing to launch a rocket, and what it's carrying is... a fighter jet we've never seen before!"
The military satellites of other countries, especially those used for surveillance, were shot down long ago.
At the same time.
Countless high-resolution satellites in China are monitoring the globe!
They underestimated Chen Hao's technology!
In the high-resolution satellite's lens, there's almost no difference between night and day; every move is under surveillance.
Why is North America launching a rocket?
Their space fighter can't directly take off from the ground and enter space.
It needs to be launched with a heavy rocket. After reaching the designated altitude in space, the fighter can separate from the rocket and cruise in outer space for a long time, which means...
Chen Hao suddenly thought of a question.
"General?"
Why isn't the General saying anything about such an urgent matter?
Could he be spacing out?
"Just thought of something."
Chen Hao chuckled.
"What is it?"
"I was thinking..."
Chen Hao had a mischievous look on his face: "The cost of North America's space fighter to go into space once is so high, they definitely can't just come down casually. Staying in outer space for a long time, what about the pilots' eating, drinking, and bathroom breaks... will it be very smelly?"
General Wang's eyes widened in disbelief.
I'm telling you that North America is about to launch a rocket, and it's likely carrying a space fighter.
It's urgent!
And you're telling me it'll be smelly?
"General, it's not..."
"Alright."
Chen Hao quickly said, "Is the air combat training going well?"
"We're always training!"
"Good."
"We've produced eight J-40s in the past month. Do you want to send them into the sky...?"
One is the national system.
The second is the globally crushing technology, and the scale of light and heavy industrial clusters.
In short.
China's military production capacity is terrifying.
In General Wang's view, although both sides use laser weapons, the performance of the fighters themselves is not on the same level.
The J-40 not only integrates artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and consciousness interaction, but also has an ion shield that can resist lasers. These are things that North America can't match—easily allowing the enemy to return empty-handed.
"The particle cannon has just been test-fired successfully."
Chen Hao said.
"I heard about it, but... wasn't it not mass-produced?"
General Wang said helplessly.
"We have a prototype."
"You mean..."
General Wang was stunned: "That's a prototype, the probability of failure is too high!"
"Can't it also be equipped with laser weapons?"
Chen Hao chuckled.
The prototype has a higher failure rate.
But it can be equipped with laser weapons at the same time.
Even if the particle cannon fails, the original laser secondary weapon, coupled with the J-40's heaven-defying performance, will not have any problems.
...
North America is preparing to launch a rocket.
Before the launch, a series of preparations are needed, and Chen Hao's side has plenty of time.
He immediately ordered the particle cannon to be crated.
He didn't go to the civil aviation airport.
This thing is too sensitive to allow civil aviation transportation.
A certain military airport.
A fully armed special force built a cordon around the airport. Chen Hao, wrapped like a dumpling, walked towards a transport plane with a wooden box, accompanied by Li Zhiguang and others.
The J-40 is also their achievement.
It's going to be in actual combat!
How could they not see it with their own eyes?
Seeing the parked transport plane, Chen Hao's eyes obviously paused.
"Chief Chen, it's the Yun-30."
Zhang Enhe smiled.
"Mass production started three months ago, but you were too busy with work, so we didn't specifically tell you."
Li Zhiguang added.
Before his eyes!
It is China's strategic transport aircraft—the Yun-30!
After the brain-computer interface R\u0026D was completed, Chen Hao gave an unspeakable amount of technology.
From small arms to large warships.
How could he be told about every kind of R\u0026D?
Did he have that much free time?
In addition, Chen Hao's biggest focus is on equipment directly used for combat.
Such as nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
Such as the Type 055, J-22, and J-40.
Strategic transport aircraft...
Of course, it's important!
But it's not an offensive weapon, so Chen Hao pays less attention to it.
He looked at the transport plane in front of him.
He provided the technology, and he knows the performance data better than anyone else.
But seeing it with his own eyes is still shocking!
65 meters long.
Empty weight of 145 tons.
Maximum take-off weight of 328 tons, and a payload of over 120 tons with sufficient fuel.
The maximum range is as high as 12,700 kilometers!
China has not had its own independently developed large transport aircraft in the past few decades.
Not to mention strategic transport aircraft.
Now, it has!
Not just strategic transport aircraft?
His focus is on front-line combat equipment, and the military technology handed over to the country...
Is countless!
Today's sea, land, and air equipment all crush the entire era!
"Let's go."
Chen Hao took a deep breath: "Go to Shenfei!"
...
Merritt Island, Florida.
Kennedy Space Center.
Albert and a group of senior military officials are waiting in the launch control center.
It is late at night.
Launching at night can avoid China's surveillance.
Unfortunately...
They don't understand China's technology well enough.
In fact, even knowing that they will be monitored, there is no better choice.
The space launch center is huge and requires a series of logistical support, so it is impossible to hide it at all.
They can't just not launch or test fly, right?
Albert made two preparations.
First, keep quiet.
Did not release a rocket launch statement in advance.
If discovered, say it is launching a space shuttle. Anyway, the space fighter project must not be admitted, even if it means death.
Albert is in a good mood.
Over the past month, in addition to the initial prototype, two new fighters have been completed.
Where did the money come from?
Originally, it wasn't like they didn't have a penny.
It's just that the money to build ten wasn't enough, but two was definitely more than enough.
Secondly...
Three-party negotiations were held more than a month ago.
They were North America, China, and major consortia.
North America took a step back, claiming that it could let the consortium leave. Not only could people in North America leave, but assets could also leave North America, but a certain tax must be paid—otherwise, they would rather die!
China mainly played a mediation role in the negotiations. Whether to agree depends on the consortium.
After all...
The original core team of major consortia are currently all in North America—it's a matter of life and death.
Indeed!
The equity of these people, as well as the control of the group, have been transferred to those younger generations, but...
Can the descendants who fled to China ignore the life and death of their elders?
Even if they want to ignore it...
Assets cannot be transferred to China.
It's better for the assets to be in North America, right?
Finally.
The three parties reached a unanimous agreement to pay a certain percentage of tax according to the assets of the major consortia.
The White House requested 10%, and finally negotiated to 8%.
Is 8% a small amount?
Consortia that have been operating for a century have countless assets under their names. 8% does not refer to the equity held, but to all assets!
The total amount...
Exceeds one trillion US dollars!
With this money, let alone ten space fighters, the entire 'Freedom Nation Project' has the funds it needs.
Albert is naturally in a great mood.
The key!
The Uranus fighter is about to take off!
