But whether the moon is big or small, it has an area of ​​nearly 40 million square kilometers.

On the moon, there are currently only twelve lunar bases established by six companies, including Leso and Citigroup, distributed on both sides of the moon.

Obviously, for the nearly 40 million square kilometers of the moon, there are only twelve bases or security stations, which is really too few.

However, countries and investors cannot mine on the sites of Leso and Citigroup Six, and can only mine helium-3 and other mineral deposits further afield.

Therefore, there is undoubtedly a need for a large transport aircraft to help transport personnel and equipment.

So Xia Yang had already asked Letso to modify and design a lunar transport aircraft based on the Black Bat transport aircraft.

The moon has no air and is a space environment, so any advanced turbofan or turbojet engine on the Blue Star is useless.

Therefore, the original advanced beast engine of the Black Bat transport aircraft must be removed, and it can only use a rocket engine. The fuel used is also fuel such as hydrogen and methane, and then mixed with oxygen.

Of course, for safety reasons, it also adopts a separate design like the rocket engine, and it is safer in the lunar environment, because there is no oxygen, and explosive fuels such as hydrogen and methane cannot be burned.

Except for the difficulty of the engine, the Black Bat Lunar version of the transport aircraft is not difficult for Leso at all. All that remains is to modify the flight control system and replace it with more advanced fuselage materials to withstand the harsh environment of the moon.

In addition, the Black Bat Lunar version of the transport plane has arrived at the moon, which has another big benefit.

The moon's gravity is only one-sixth of the Blue Star. In other words, under the same thrust, the Black Bat Lunar Transport Vehicle's load capacity is six times greater than that of the Blue Star, and its load capacity on the moon and in space is as high as a terrifying 1,200 tons.

In addition, the moon has no air to stop it, so its speed becomes faster.

In fact, the Black Bat Lunar Transport Plane is considered a real spaceship, but its range is relatively short.
