Super technology leader

Naturally, there have been space weapons a long time ago.

In the earliest days, decades ago, the White Bear launched space weapons and satellites equipped with upgraded aircraft cannons into Earth orbit.

It’s just that the test firing effect is not ideal, because the weight of the satellite is only two tons, and the space environment is complex, which is completely different from the environment in the atmosphere, so even if the aerial artillery hits a target a few kilometers away, it is useless.

However, there is no shortage of brain-hole masters in that crazy era. Later, they developed a more powerful "Polar One", which is a big guy.

This gadget has a diameter of 4 meters, a length of 37 meters, and a mass of 80 tons.

It can fly in a space orbit of 280 kilometers, equipped with radar and optical sighting system, equipped with a 1 MW carbon dioxide laser cannon, and a recoilless launch system for the deployment of nuclear space mines.

Once such a powerful force is sent to space, it will have a huge impact on the international situation. Maybe it will turn the cold war into a hot war and cause unpredictable consequences.

Fortunately, it crashed into the Pacific Ocean due to a malfunction.

And the cost is huge, I don't know if it has become one of the dark lines of death of the white bear.

As the first to fight against the white bear at the time, Meriken, who was vying for world leadership, would naturally not lag behind in this regard, but because of technical reasons, there were not many successful projects.

Even if it was successful, it was restricted due to various reasons and finally gave up.

However, mankind has never given up the idea of ​​developing space weapons, especially the leading powers.

No way, the situation between human nations is like this.

It’s just that although the space looks empty, the environment is actually extremely complicated, and even just breaking through the earth’s atmosphere is quite laborious, so space wars and so on are currently only stuck in the plans of various countries and science fiction films.

It could not be done decades ago, and it is not necessarily now.

At least several methods of attacking orbiting satellites in the atmosphere have been upgraded for several generations, such as anti-satellite missiles, anti-satellite lasers, and anti-satellite satellites.

It’s just that these gadgets are too uncertain to use. Destroying a satellite can produce thousands of fragments. If one is not careful, it is easy to reset the entire satellite orbit with one key, so that the earth will create a new man-made one. clothes.

It's even better than the project to stamp the Pacific Ocean.

But with the continuous development and changes of science and technology and the international environment, the previous restrictions and scruples are slowly disappearing.

For example, now Meriken wants to develop a real space fighter.

As soon as he got the news, Tang Chao notified Zhao Li, and then asked him to inform him of the upper end.

When it comes to weapons and wars, there is no need to carry it down by yourself and tell the authorities that letting them make the decision is the right choice.

Comprehensive analysis of the information provided by the six major private aerospace companies and the Tianxia official got a little bit of news. Meriken’s space weapons were mainly modified in the early stage, and the platforms are the official "X-37B" and the private aerospace company "Dream Chaser" number".

Their function is to let Meriken quickly own its own space fighter. As for whether it is professional or unprofessional, let alone whether it can be used, it must have it, and it must be fast.

While transforming them, design and manufacture real space fighters, which is the resurrected "X-33" project.

Decades ago, it was positioned to transport cargo, but now it seems to be too stupid. The cargo can be shipped with a recoverable rocket. This simple maintenance, reusable, single-stage orbitable spacecraft should be used As a space fighter.

As for the real "Adventure Star" plan, it is said that after research, it is worthless to restart, and they have a better plan.

For something that big, I don't want to react quickly and launch flexibly, but think of ways to keep it in the earth's orbit for a long time.

Therefore, it is necessary to increase its payload as much as possible, and it can even be assembled on orbit, making it a super-heavy orbital bomber, or a space carrier that can carry small space fighters.

So the reusable rocket is undoubtedly a good thing.

The largest reusable rocket currently under development by Meriken is the "Starship Launch System" of Space Fork.

Because of these news, Tianxia really can no longer go according to the previous plan. There are no fine-tunings, and major changes must be made.

Because Meriken, it is an international gangster, shameless, if you are only economically and technologically powerful, but do not have the weapons to protect yourself, then it will definitely beat you to death and become your father.

It has too many previous convictions, and there are several in East Asia alone.

The most famous is the Sakura Country. The famous fat pig that once had a serious mismatch in economic and military strength directly caused Meriken to "fight" and couldn't find North, "killed" to eat meat, and has not recovered.

Therefore, Tianxia officials held an emergency meeting after receiving Tang Chao's information.

Now they have an advantage over Meriken, that is, several private aerospace companies of Meriken have cooperated with Tang Chao for the development of the company and to become a giant.

Even, they knew that Tang Chao would contact Tianxia's officials, so they said so much.

Of course, the information they can know is also limited, only in the space domain, so it is not enough for Tianxia to completely defeat Meriken with this information.

In order to completely defeat Meriken, Tianxia still needs to continue to accumulate strength. According to calculations, at least ten or several decades later, right?

By then, the world may not be like that.

As a beneficiary, Tianxia will not try to expose them. After all, they are considered "allies" to a certain extent, and Tianxia does not need to expose his "informants".

This is also the reason why the six major private aerospace companies are so unscrupulous. They have the confidence to ride the express train of the space race and become a super giant in more than ten years.

It has to be said that Western private companies have a heart to break through the horizon. Those super companies that replace the country in cyberpunk are their goals.

At Tianxia, ​​after an internal emergency meeting, I talked to Tang Chao again, and then convened aerospace companies across the country to hold a huge space meeting.

Because Tang Chao proposed a super big plan, it needs the national aerospace force and even the national manufacturing force to participate.

A super large space station!

A space spectacle visible to the naked eye on the ground!

During the meeting, Tang Chao took out the second phase of the space station plan of the Navigator Company and acted as an explanation of the design and manufacturing plan of this plan.

At the beginning, he considered docking with the Tiangong Space Station, so the whole plan didn't feel inconsistent at all. All that was needed was a new distribution and manufacturing plan.

"We will definitely not give up the manned moon landing plan. It will continue as planned. After all, the people in China have been waiting for that day for a long time!"

"However, we have also calculated in detail. There will certainly be difficulties in carrying out the two plans at the same time, but they are not impossible to overcome. If we want continuous development, we must continue to overcome difficulties!"

"Difficult things, let's talk a little bit, let me talk about our super space station plan first, when I finish talking about it, you will definitely forget the suffering I mentioned before."

"Because once it is completed, we will enter a new era. As the big bosses of aerospace companies, you are very longing for an era!"

"That is, the future!"

After that, the big screen behind Tang Chao showed a huge space station structure diagram.

The space capsules section by section are its body.

One by one, the sun's wings are its wings.

It is the future!

It is the Tianting Space Station!
