Chapter 2707: As easy as producing sausages

Ballistic missiles are very similar to launch vehicles. They both hit the sky, except that one falls and the other does not fall.
Of course, not all ballistic missiles can become carrier rockets. They must be intercontinental ballistic missiles, because only such ballistic missiles can have a sufficiently high speed, exceeding the first cosmic speed of the earth, before they can become artificial satellites. Otherwise, If it does, it can only fall off.
The Long March 2 carrier rocket was rebuilt after the Dongfeng 5 was manufactured in China. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the previous model to launch artificial satellites.
Therefore, if they want to change the carrier rocket, only their own intercontinental ballistic missile can do it, and, in order to have a sufficiently high carrying capacity, it must be a heavy-duty intercontinental ballistic missile. After all, the current satellites are gradually developing toward heavy-duty. what.
Hearing Qin Guan's words, Kumar's mind immediately started thinking. He filtered the missiles of his own design bureau and found the most suitable one.
"Our R-36M intercontinental ballistic missile is the most suitable." Kumar said: "It seems that we can try to transform this missile into a commercial launch vehicle."
The SS-18 in the previous chapter are all codenames given by the West. Xiong has its own naming rules. SS-18 is the R-36M here. This is a heavy-duty intercontinental ballistic missile and is currently theirs. The largest stock in the arsenal.
In the past, they had not tried to modify the launch vehicle. Now, Qin Guan has put forward a suggestion for them, which is quite timely.
They can transform, but they are not capable of market development. They gave up nuclear weapons in order to deceive them. The West strongly supported them, and even Eagle Country provided them with an enterprise for commercial launch market development. The launch cost of the launch vehicle is quite low, about 10 million yuan at a time, so it is still competitive.
However, after all, it is an intercontinental ballistic missile. There is no booster attached below. Its maximum low-Earth orbit carrying capacity is only about four tons. It can launch mainly small satellites. Bibihan’s Long March 2 has the largest low-earth orbit. It also has a carrying capacity of nine tons. As for the energy monster, it can have a low-Earth orbit carrying capacity of hundreds of tons in one launch. That is a true metamorphosis.
Now, Kumar had found a new way out for their Southern Design Bureau, and his eyes were bright, and when he looked at Qin Guan, he was even more admired.
"This matter, we need to take a long-term view." Qin Guan said: "You are responsible for modifying the missile. As for the launch, it can be carried out at our base. We work together to develop the world's commercial satellite launch market. Moreover, you are already With satellite research and development capabilities, they can also be bundled as a whole."
Qin Guan did not propose to hand over the R-36M missile to his own to improve it. This would cause the other party’s fear and feel that Han was stealing technology. In fact, Han has long turned to solid rockets. The technology of this missile is really good. Don't catch a cold.
It is the most important thing for everyone to make money together. At the same time, with this opportunity, all the experts here can be brought to Han country! Who doesn't want to make more money?
Xiong Country also has a space launch site, but, the current situation, presumably they are all well aware of the situation, they have no way to borrow those launch sites, it is better to directly cooperate with Han.
Qin Guan was also happy for a while. He just got two An-124 transport planes. The kind of rockets should be able to be transported directly into the belly of the transport plane, right? It really doesn't work. There is also the An-225 and the Big Mac, which will also be in my own pocket in the future, and I have money!
"Now, can we go and have a look?" Qin Guan asked Kumar. The most important purpose of coming here is to open the eyes!
This is not the Xiong Country’s space center, the Xiong Country’s salute factory, the Korolev Group, etc., are the giants in space, but there are also many good things here.
"Go, go to our engine factory first." Thinking of the bright prospects of future cooperation, Kumar is also very happy.
Back then, after the disintegration of the Xiong country, the main aerospace achievements were inherited by Da Mao. When Han was preparing for a manned space program and building an orbital space station, it would inevitably require a carrier rocket with greater thrust. It imported a large liquid rocket engine such as the RD-180, but it was rejected by Da Mao. Don’t look at his usual enthusiasm. In fact, Da Mao was still quite afraid of the rise of Han, and they would also contain it. .
Later, Han will not stop because of this. Fortunately, the relationship between Han and Ermao is quite good. It is said that the RD-120 liquid rocket engine and the supporting RD-9 attitude control rocket engine technology were obtained from Ermao. After the research and development, the Fat Five Rocket of Han Guo came out. Of course, there may be technical reference. The real relying on is still the hard work and scientific research of Han Guo's scientific and technical personnel.
Now, Han’s heavy-duty launch vehicle has already started. Without the help here, Qin Guan has brought all relevant technologies out of the cemetery. Han’s manned spaceflight program is more advanced than in history. Now that the research and development of this large rocket engine has been completed, it is not necessary to learn from it here.
Rocket engines are very important. It takes years of technical accumulation to be able to successfully develop them. Qin Guan has a deep understanding of these. A thin camel is bigger than a horse. Xiong's astronauts have accumulated in this area. It is quite deep.
When entering the workshop, Qin Guan was instantly attracted by a slogan.
We make missiles as easy as making sausages!
Standing in front of this sentence, Qin Guan was also full of emotions. Yes, this sentence was spoken by the leader of the Xiong country. After inspecting the factory here, he was very happy. The leader at that time He was originally a representative of the omnipotent missile theory. He liked missiles very much, so he said this to the factory and the world.
Later, even though the leader stepped down, this sentence remained in the factory and became a slogan for them, and it also recorded that great era.
Go all out to develop the military industry and compete with the Eagle Nation for hegemony. It seems that the Xiong Nation won, but in fact, they were dragged down by the military industry!
"Mr. Kumar, have you heard of the Scythians?" Qin Guan asked Kumar.
Speaking of the great achievements of Xiongguo Aerospace, this ballistic missile is nothing but a few big guys, one is Energy, one is Blizzard, and the other is Scythians!
