Movie black technology

There is no fairing in the world that can cover a mech that is 12 meters high, several meters wide and has an irregular shape.

Therefore, there is only one way to use rockets to transport mechs, that is, to weld the rocket propellers with the mechs, and use the rockets as the mechs' jetpacks.

Commonly known as Lida Brick Fly.

The risks of this approach are obvious.

Because when the mecha was designed, aerodynamics were not considered much.

After all, not every mecha has to fly into the sky. At most, the designer only considers the air resistance when the mecha is running.

Therefore, after the Boxer is lifted into the sky, whether it can fly according to the predetermined trajectory, in fact, no one has a definite answer in mind.

Maybe some unconsidered part of the mecha blocks the airflow, which will affect the overall flight angle, causing the flight direction to deviate and fall to the ground.

These problems are usually solved by relying on wind tunnels, but in the current situation, let alone blow tunnels, there is no time for hair dryers!

Therefore, the possible flight status of the mecha was temporarily calculated for a few hours through domestic supercomputers, and a mecha modification plan that was least likely to cause major problems was found, and it was implemented in a hurry.

A group of engineers quickly temporarily added various streamlined parts to the mecha according to the calculated modification plan. The most obvious one was to install a large spire on the shoulder armor and top of the head of the Boxer.

This big spire almost enveloped the entire mecha.

Then some other places that may enter the high-speed airflow, cause the route to deviate or damage the mecha parts, are also temporarily installed with detachable windshields.

These windshields will be removed as soon as they are in place.

Although so much work has been done, in fact, everyone can foresee that this flight will not go smoothly.

Don't say that like a recyclable rocket, every bit of it falls in the recycling circle.

As long as the mecha can fly over Hawaii and land, it will be considered a complete success!

As for some other minor problems that occurred during the flight, the only hope now is that they can be solved with the overflow thrust of the rocket.

After communicating with Kimberly and obtaining the document with the seal of the commander-in-chief submitted by the other side through formal diplomatic channels, the commander-in-chief who is directing the entire scene at the space launch center no longer delays, urging the staff on site to quickly check in place .

The rocket propellers installed on the Boxer were temporarily modified, and they were not the big rockets that were originally planned to be tested.

Those big rockets are several meters thick and taller than the Boxer. It is too difficult to weld them firmly to the mech.

Even if Emperor Wuwu himself went into battle, it would be impossible to complete this task.

Therefore, these rockets have been structurally optimized after retaining the propulsion structure. The height and thickness have been reduced a lot, and they seem to be in harmony with the Boxer.

"Wind shield inspection complete."

"Thermal bulkhead inspection complete."

"Connection inspection completed..."

After the on-site staff conducted the final inspection and confirmed that they were correct, they left the rocket and the mecha standing upright in the launch site, and quickly began to evacuate.

The three launches were planned to occur in succession, with less than ten minutes between each other.

And none of the three launches will be made public.

After all, this is not a very sure thing. If it is not done well, it may be blown up directly in the launch base.

However, taking into account the feelings of the sponsor, at the dome base, Chen Shen and the others could watch the live broadcast through the cameras in the launch base.

Kimberley at the base can also watch the launch live.

"Praise Buddha!"

"This launch mission must be successful!"

Kimberly and his attendants were sitting in the large conference room, and the screen in front of them showed the live broadcast of the launch base, and the countdown had already reached the stage.

Almost immediately after Kimberly finished praying, the countdown reached zero, and the launch button was pressed on the spot.

The rockets and mechs in the launch site suddenly made loud noises, and slowly lifted up amid billowing thick smoke.

Chen Shen, Director Qin, and other staff from the Monster Prevention and Control Bureau were also watching the live broadcast of the launch.

Seeing the rising posture, Chen Shen felt a lot more relaxed at first: "There should be no problem. I'm not sure whether I can go to Hawaii, but at least this launch will not suddenly fall to the ground..."

The result was as Chen Shen predicted. A few minutes after the rocket took off, the mecha and the rocket entered the predetermined orbit smoothly.

In particular, the mechs and rockets did not go into space.

According to the designed parabolic trajectory, the mech is in the atmosphere during the flight.

The main reason for not choosing a more energy-efficient space orbit, but choosing an atmospheric orbit that requires the thrusters to be turned on all the time, is the main reason for the mecha.

The mecha was not designed for space. The Boxer has a large number of chips on it. Once these chips enter space, they may be damaged by high-energy rays at any time.

Moreover, with the design strength of the Boxer, it cannot withstand the high temperature generated when it re-enters the atmosphere.

In the final analysis, it is just a mecha with a cost of tens of millions.

Even in order to prevent the mecha from overheating during the flight, the propeller had to reduce the output to avoid the speed being too fast and causing the mecha to overheat.

Thanks to the blue blood fuel, otherwise there is no rocket on the earth that can continue to output for such a long time.

According to the set trajectory, the average flying speed of the mech is about three kilometers per second, which is more than twice the speed of sound.

However, only the rising stage is relatively fierce. After reaching the preset peak and starting to slide, the engine will switch to low-power operation, and at the same time turn around slowly to prepare for landing and reverse thrust.

Calculated in this way, it only takes about 40 minutes from the launch base to Hawaii.

It is precisely because this trajectory and speed are within the interceptable and trackable range that the other party finally agreed that the mecha landed on the Hawaiian Islands.

Otherwise, they were really afraid that the country would not talk about martial arts and make a sneak attack, so they took the opportunity to send them a big mushroom weighing 300 tons.

After confirming that the first rocket entered the predetermined orbit, everyone was relieved.

According to the current situation, at least the first rocket can reach Hawaii smoothly. With this guarantee, even if the next two rockets fail, the country can still collect money with peace of mind.

Then, the second rocket was launched quickly.

The process was as smooth as the first shot, and the rocket successfully took off without exploding in situ.

However, a few minutes after liftoff, an abnormal report came from the flight control hall.

"What is the situation!"

Kimberly in front of the screen was more anxious than the commander-in-chief, picked up the phone to connect with the commander-in-chief and shouted.

After understanding the situation, the commander-in-chief coughed, and replied with some embarrassment: "Due to the influence of unknown reasons, the orbit of the second rocket has just shifted."

"Track shift?"

"Yes, due to unknown reasons, the rocket flew up with the mech..."

"What does that mean?"

"They will probably fly into space in the future and become the world's first mechs to orbit the earth. What we can do next is to pick a suitable altitude and orbit to turn off the engine, so as to prevent it from crashing into the space orbit. other satellites."

"This can also help you to reduce the burden a little."

According to the agreement, Kimberly and the others will pay for all the consequences of the entire launch process, that is to say, if the satellite is damaged, Kimberly and the others will also have to pay for it.

"..."

"But don't worry, we're firing the third shot now!"

"The third shot still has a chance to succeed!"

The commander-in-chief quickly changed the subject and started commanding the third rocket.

Kimberly and the others stared at each other without daring to disturb them, and could only sigh in the end.

Chen Shen could only shrug his shoulders and express his helplessness in this situation.

He could also guess the reason for the deviation of the rocket's orbit. The high probability is that the mech did not block any loophole, and the impact of the incoming airflow just happened to lift the mecha's orbit.

When this happens during an emergency launch, there is no way to save it.
