74. Ghost fighter, first flight!
No wonder Tang Xiao is so excited, because the construction of Dawn City has been stalled for a long time. What needs to be built next include some large factories and large buildings. The engineering mechanized exoskeleton they are using now is simply not enough.
The SCV is different. This kind of all-purpose engineering mecha can build and repair everything from space battleships to various buildings.
Once the SCV is put into use, Goolaham submitted an application very early, and the thick stack of construction plans that are still on his desk in his office can be started immediately!
It is foreseeable that large machinery factories, parts factories, large cloud computing centers, large airports, etc. can transform Dawn City into a large comprehensive city.
"This... how come the development of SCV is so fast!" Tang Xiao grabbed Qu Xuewen's arm, extremely excited.
If it were any other occasion, Qu Xuewen would definitely be extremely excited because of this physical contact, but now she just rolled her eyes and said lightly: "Under the leadership of Professor Chi, the research and development of the ghost fighter has been almost completed. . With the technological accumulation of the Ghost fighter, it will certainly be very fast to study the SCV, which is also a product of the Terran Empire and has relatively low technical content."
She pouted towards the laboratory and said, "Dr. Feng Yongwang is now in charge of this project. He has been transferred from the Ghost Fighter project. It is expected that we will be able to use the SCV in up to two weeks. "
"Hahahaha! It's so good!!" Tang Xiao was overjoyed, hugged Qu Xuewen and kissed her on the face. Then he left the beautiful scientist who instantly turned into a stone sculpture and walked to the next laboratory alone. , "So what is this frame? It looks like a spaceship?"
"This is the engineering spacecraft of the Traders Emergency Alliance. It is still in the early stages of the project. After the Ghost Fighter project is completely completed, we will immediately start the research and development of this engineering spacecraft." Professor Chi's voice came from behind Tang Xiao.
"Professor Chi!" Tang Xiao turned around suddenly and saw Professor Chi Jianjun walking towards here with several members of the expert team.
"Manager, I received the notification before. I was still wondering why you haven't come over yet. I didn't expect you to be looking at the SCV and engineering spacecraft." Professor Chi nodded, and then asked: "The ghost fighter developed by Dr. Wang before Simulating the operating system, how is your practice going?"
Chi Jianjun is like this, he never shows mercy to anyone when he speaks, there is no respect, only right and wrong. In fact, in this environment where everyone was very respectful to him, Tang Xiao sometimes felt that getting along with Chi Jianjun was more straightforward.
He smiled and nodded in reply: "I have practiced it no less than a thousand times in the past few days! I am completely familiar with the operation of the Phantom fighter."
"Very good, let's get started. This way, please." Chi Jianjun turned around and led Tang Xiao towards the hangar platform of the research space station.
A rolling shutter door slowly opened in front of Tang Xiao's eyes, and a silver-grey fighter plane that looked like a 'Shi' was parked quietly in the hangar. With a structure full of industrial atmosphere, powerful engines, and devastating weapons and equipment, this is the main fighter that Tang Xiao has been dreaming about for half a year -
CF/A-17, Wraith, Ghost fighter!
Tang Xiao walked over and stretched his hand across the cold shell. His movements were very gentle, as if he were touching the girl's delicate skin. However, the feedback of the touch told him that the armor of this aircraft was very thick.
This fighter is 18 meters long and has a maximum wingspan of 21 meters. There is no doubt that it is a weapon of the same level that can compete with the ARC-170 heavy fighter currently equipped by the Galactic Republic.
In the cosmic environment, this means that this fighter jet has faster speed and stronger firepower, and can deal with all kinds of enemies.
And this is also true. In "StarCraft", the ghost fighter is a very flexible unit of the Terran Empire and can be used to fight against almost all opponents. From the golden fleet of the protoss to the flying dragons of the Zerg, there is nothing that the ghost fighter cannot deal with.
In that unprecedented war between the three races, the ghost fighter planes were almost present throughout, exerting their own energy on every battlefield.
Tang Xiao sat in the cockpit of the Phantom fighter, took a deep breath, and started the engine as he had done thousands of times in the simulation system.
The anti-gravity device was activated, and the fighter slowly flew up until it was about 5 meters above the ground. The originally straight wings began to shrink inward into an M-shape.
The engine speed is getting faster and faster, and the color of the nozzle at the back gradually changes from blue to white. At this time, Professor Chi's voice came from the communication: "It's time to take off."
The corners of Tang Xiao's mouth turned up slightly, and he pushed the joystick suddenly, and the fighter jet instantly started flying out of the hangar platform like an arrow from the string. This speed was like lightning, and the ground crew on the platform could only see an afterimage passing in front of their eyes!
After flying out of the hangar platform, the originally contracted reverse flaps under the Phantom began to expand. This was also the Phantom's complete combat form. This fighter jet is equipped with two Gemini missile launchers, each equipped with 10 bombs, and an infrared laser cannon is installed on each of the three wings.
Three laser cannons and 20 Gemini missiles simply arm the fighter to the teeth.
Tang Xiao flew the Phantom fighter towards the first target drone. Professor Chi's voice came over the communication, "Try shooting at a distance of 1,000 kilometers, using a laser cannon."
"Okay." Tang Xiao activated the fire control radar and locked the target almost immediately. When the data fed back in the driving helmet showed that the distance was 1,000 kilometers, he decisively pulled the trigger.
Three red laser beams instantly illuminated the target drone, and the blade fighter used as the target drone was immediately destroyed and turned into a ball of fire.
Then he tested the Gemini missile. Under the aiming of the Phantom fighter's more advanced fire control system, Tang Xiao locked two target drones in completely different directions at the same time, and then launched the missile.
Two fireballs exploded on both sides of the fighter jet almost simultaneously, and the weapon system test was almost perfect!
Tang Xiao felt a sense of relief in his heart as he flew the ghost fighter through the universe like a meteor. The fighter's acceleration and steering flexibility far exceed that of the Blade fighter.
Now Tang Xiao is very sure that when Tieya Kuken attacked before, if he had 20 ghost fighters, he would not have to go through so much trouble and just give him a boost.
Returning to the hangar of the research institute, Tang Xiao jumped out of the cockpit, threw his helmet to the ground crew aside, and said directly: "After completing the final test, all Blade fighters will be put into reserve, and all the production lines of the mothership will be fully produced to produce Phantom fighters. . This will be our main fighter for a long time to come."
