Chapter 442 UFO Incident

Adults are playing with big planes, and children also have small planes to play with.

In the afternoon of leisure, Alice and Harry play with electric aircraft on the lawn. Unlike those on sale on the market, these are all high-end products, made with 3D printers, and have a sci-fi look. There are two surrounded rotors placed on both sides of the aircraft, which can adjust the inclination angle.

It means that when the rotor is horizontally facing the ground, it can take off and land vertically, and when it is adjusted to face the direction of flight, it can achieve horizontal flight. Energy uses electricity, and the "belly" of the aircraft is equipped with batteries and circuits, so children can easily control it remotely.

An Feng and Wang Le were lying on the soft grass, located on the slope, and could clearly see the surrounding scene. The two children were following behind the plane with their remote controls, and three tigers were also running behind them. The young tiger was curious about the objects flying in the sky.

Wang Le looked at the plane above his head and said, "The generation of technology in this era is so fast. When he was a child, he was a high-end one. Now the flexibility of this thing can dodge maneuvers and hover in the air. It was unimaginable that he had more than ten years ago."

"The times are always improving," said An Feng.

Wang Le said: "I heard that there are electric planes on the market. I mean, electric planes that can really be used. Are you interested?"

An Feng shook his head: "The technology is immature, the speed is not fast, and there is no fun."

Wang Le said: "This is the future trend, and the concept stocks of electric aircraft are very optimistic."

An Feng said: "When I have time, I will also invest in electric aircraft manufacturing companies. Not only electric aircraft, but also land-air amphibious vehicles can be considered."

Wang Le said: "What a great idea. I see that the aircraft manufactured by your company are so advanced. If you enter this industry, you will definitely be very outstanding."

"Of course." An Feng was very confident. "It's just that there are too many things at present and there is no time to develop these things."

Wang Le automatically ignored his subsequent words, and was still lying on the lawn in a daze when he was not free?

Alice ran back: "Dad, Dad, the plane flew so high just now."

"Alice is so great. I can't even see the plane flying so high." An Feng said. Alice is relatively simple, and she can be happy for the afternoon by coaxing her.

Alice was indeed smiling, and she said, "Dad, let's add flying wings to the car, right? Our whole family can fly."

An Feng said: "There will definitely be something in the future."

"When will it be next?"

An Feng said: "The future will be an uncertain time in the future."

"Oh." She nodded, but she still didn't understand.

When it comes to flying cars, Anfeng feels that there will be a market in the future. With the development of battery technology and aviation technology, flying cars may not be able to take into account both. It was found more than ten years ago, but the relevant regulations are not perfect. Drivers must hold two types of driver's licenses.

An Feng kept a heart and saw what Maserati had.

Maserati has developed very well in recent years because it has seized the initiative of electric vehicles and promoted by large groups, their participation in events and named brands has tripled its value, and it has acquired the Jeep brand from Fiat, or Chrysler, expanding the SUV field.

Maserati originally took into account many aspects. From sports cars to luxury cars, expansion is generally mid- and low-end, but other brands are controlled by big car companies. In recent years, only Jeep has obtained it. I have considered taking back Jaguar's shares from India, but the matter is under negotiation.

As a car group with an annual turnover of US$5.5 billion, it is possible to regain Jaguar's strength, but if Tata Group does not agree, there is no way to... Turning to the flying car issue that Anfeng hopes, as a future conceptualization, car dealers are also concerned about it, but due to legal issues, it is not yet clear.

An Feng was just giving a comment, he did not participate in the operation of Maserati.

...

There are other problems with the aircraft.

It is well known to all over the world that Starry Sky Exploration Company develops aerospace planes, but they are mainly for commercial use and are aimed at "space taxis". For more professional purposes, the company is not a military contractor and has no research. However, robot companies are very enthusiastic in Tanzania, far away in Africa.

There is a relatively large robot base in the local area. It was built five years ago and put into operation three years ago. It is still under construction. Since the beginning of construction, it has brought benefits to the local people, first of all, jobs, secondly, taxes, and industrial development has also promoted the industrial chain from raw materials to transportation.

There are many benefits to seawater desalination projects, so it is a prestigious company in the local area. The company spent 100 million US dollars to build an airplane runway nearby, which is 3.5 kilometers long. Because it is located on the plain, the construction cost is not high. It is mainly used as aircraft testing, and of course there are also airplanes.

Artificial intelligence development technology has an unparalleled advantage: cleverness.

Hal's high computing speed is based on quantum computers, which can kill all supercomputers in seconds. Therefore, the development success rate of the aircraft is very high, and even after conceptual production, it will be successfully put on the runway for the first test flight, and only a small-scale adjustment is required in the future.

This time the test was also a drone, which was moving towards a space plane.

The plane runway is next to the factory, with a dedicated passage for robots underground. Robots of various forms send drones to the bottom of the airport through underground tracks. When night falls, the ground at one end of the airport runway will be opened, and the drone will be dragged out by the transport robot and transported to the ground.

There are many robots on site, but only one humanoid machine.

It was specially tuned by Anfeng. To be honest, the humanoid machine has little advantages in addition to its appearance. For example, transportation robots must be machines with many wheels and tracks. Working type requires six or more hands, detection, snake shape, and spider shape are more suitable.

The only humanoid machine is currently under the control of An Feng.

It's night in Tanzania, and it's still daytime in Anfeng. He uses quantum information transmission in his office to transmit the images seen by the robot to him in real time. The robot has three pairs of eyes, all-round three-dimensional vision, which has a greater advantage than human eyes.

The resolution is imitated by the human eye and the field of vision is very clear.

Hal's voice rang out next to him: "First round of test."

An Feng didn't say anything, and left the matter to the commander Hal. He only needed to see the results before deciding on the next R&D direction and plan.

Hal introduced: "It uses a graphene shell, a combination of rocket engine + ramjet engine. The rocket engine pushes the speed of the aircraft to Mach 3 (three times the speed of sound). The ramjet works, and it uses liquid hydrogen fuel, and the theoretical maximum speed reaches Mach 16."

The rocket engine of the drone is ignited. The rocket engine has a great thrust, but it has a flaw: it is used once. Therefore, this drone is a typical test machine. It mainly tests ramming engines. The flame at the tail of the drone squirts six or seven meters away, and then takes off after accelerating less than one kilometer.

Since it was night, only a dazzling light could be seen around him, which instantly disappeared in the direction of the sea. Anfeng has enabled drone monitoring, and the sensor display speed continues to rise, and the m value reading exceeds 2...2.5... The ram engine generally needs m to operate when m is greater than 3.

It is difficult for fighter jets to reach three times the speed of sound, so ramjets with simple structure and faster speed cannot be equipped with fighter jets. They are generally used on missiles or drones. After the m value exceeds 3, the rocket engine will shut down and the ramjet will work, and the drone will continue to speed.

The drone is currently climbing upwards and will dive down after reaching its highest point.

The g value of the drone has exceeded 12. The fighter can withstand the acceleration of 9 g, and it is likely to disintegrate beyond the aircraft. The pilot cannot withstand it and dies violently. The graphene-capable drone can easily break through the limit, allowing its speed to finally maintain at Mach 15... and then slow down and turn around.

An Feng was surprised: "Why don't you continue?"

"Passive radar warning. We were scanned." Hal called out a satellite map. The unmanned aerial vehicle is currently 2,000 kilometers away from Tanzania, in the center of the Indian Ocean, which may be the Indian Navy or the US Navy. Anyway, something so fast is flying, it is easy to be mistaken for missiles.

It is not an ordinary missile. Intercontinental missiles can achieve this speed.

Although several major countries also have aerospace planes, the United States is very active and they are still flying outside the atmosphere. Like the current low-altitude flight, Americans cannot do it, so when scanning nearby radar waves, they found objects that were close to 300 kilometers, which was almost scared!

Unfortunately, after the UFO slowed down, it turned around and continued to accelerate and left. The estimated maximum speed reached Mach 15, and then exceeded the radar detection radius and was completely lost in a few minutes. Everyone likes to define this unknown event as a "ufo event".

...

In fact, this is a night-distance US aircraft carrier formation.

They are performing routine night missions, but there is no major event in the Indian Ocean. In addition, it is getting late, so the personnel can't help but relax their vigilance. When the sound of radar scanning for unknown objects sounded, and then confirmed that the ultra-high-speed object had advanced nearly 100 kilometers.

There are two Burke-class destroyers in the aircraft carrier formation, equipped with the Aegis system. The Americans brag that they can scan a radius of 1,000 kilometers, but in fact the earth is round, and the radar waves are swept out in a straight line. Unless a thousand kilometers are specifically swept the sky above their heads, it will only be 450 kilometers.

If the situation is not good, 400 kilometers is good. Therefore, from the interval between scanning Aegis to unknown low-altitude objects and then responding, the other party is already so close that it is decisive and frightening. The US military officers and soldiers on the ship cannot figure out their heads. What is flying so fast at low altitude?

At first, I suspected the intercontinental missile, but the intercontinental missile must have been smashed from the top of my head. It can be sensed a thousand kilometers away. The interceptors that should be intercepted, and those who are waiting to die. This time, the unknown object flew very low and rushed over at such a high speed. If it was a missile, it would be unimaginable.

With such speed, no "standard", "sea sparrow" or "Heram" systems can respond. Perhaps the dense array of short-range defense weapons can sound a few times.

Just as the fleet responded quickly, the aircraft in the radar map turned around and accelerated the evacuation.

The carrier-based early warning aircraft on the US military is preparing to take off.

The early warning aircraft took off without permission and scanned its large radar on its back, but it still found nothing. The opponent's speed was too fast, low altitude and quick response, and matched the existing conditions, but none of them met. In the end, it was submitted as a confidential document, representing the "UFO incident in the Indian Ocean."

After this unexpected contact, the US military's dual aircraft carrier formation was active nearby for a while and wanted to try its luck, but unfortunately it still couldn't find it. They were guessing at the same time, who had this ability? India? Just kidding! But the United States is the only one left in the Indian Ocean. Is it really UFO?
