I am farming in the real world.

Chapter 236 An-225 is just a younger brother in front of it!
As the Flying Cube landed, the entire aviation base was in an uproar.

Ground crew, pilots, and leaders at all levels came to the hangar to observe.

Especially after using the mechanical arms to support the ground and making a crawling movement posture similar to that of a spider robot, the originally warm atmosphere on the scene was frozen as if a time-stopping magic was cast!
“Can you actually crawl?”

“Is this still a flying machine?”

"In flight mode, the robotic arm is still hidden in the cabin?"

"This isn't like Transformers!"

The crowd of onlookers talked a lot.

After all, in the past two years, China has begun to plan and get involved in the future low-altitude flight economy, and many large drone manufacturers, including some car manufacturers, have begun to enter this field.

Electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, also known as "flying cars", have been used to great effect by eVTOL manufacturers such as Geely's Wofei Changkong and Xiaopeng Huitian.

The idea of ​​putting a four-axis multi-rotor aircraft into a car and making the car fly into the air has long since become a reality from science fiction movies of the past.

However, most of the land-based aircraft carrier flying cars developed by Xiaopeng Huitian rely on the wheeled structure of the car to operate.

There has never been an aircraft on the market that can "grow its own legs" and run around like this cube in front of you.

One moves on wheels, the other moves on bionic feet.

The difference in technical difficulty is so great that even a layman can tell the difference immediately.

What's more, this cube-shaped aircraft is equipped with its own electric jet engine.

After landing and the engine is turned off, the noise of the entire aircraft is as quiet as that of new energy vehicles on the road.

The technological content here is no longer as high as a three or four-story building in front of these traditional aircraft practitioners, but it is definitely black technology!
Of course, when Chen Jue made an emergency landing at this aviation base, he was a little nervous.

After all, this is the first time I have encountered such a confidential unit.

However, looking at the crowd of onlookers shown in the panoramic camera, and the desire, expectation and curiosity on their faces, Chen Jue suddenly grinned, feeling that he had completely succeeded in pretending this time.

"Calm down, I'm a cheating Steve after all, there's nothing to panic about." Chen Jue said to himself.

As a hidden hatch opened on the side of the Flying Cube, a group of people walked out of the cabin.

At this time, several base leaders in uniform came over to salute and started talking with Chen Jue and others.

"Comrade, was this aircraft developed by your company independently? Can you give us a detailed introduction?" Colonel Wu Chunfeng turned his eyes and glanced into the cabin from time to time.

Because after the door of this mysterious aircraft was opened, he discovered through the cabin passage that the internal space of this thing seemed to be very large.

It is not small compared to traditional medium and large transport aircraft.

If the flight parameters and the performance data of the aircraft are sufficient, he even wants to convert this civilian aircraft into a military one.

Because the domestic military has always been in an important link of making up for historical debts in terms of medium and long-range delivery capabilities.

Even though the 'Yun-20' represented by Kunpeng has been put into use in large quantities in recent years, the maximum load capacity of a single Y-20 is only 66 tons, and the maximum load capacity of 100 soldiers at a time has always been a weak point of the military.

After all, the Americans have the 'C-131 Galaxy transport aircraft' which has a payload of 200 tons and can carry 5 people at a time.

The same goes for the Big Goose, which inherited the Soviet legacy of the An-124 and An-225, and is a leader in the field of large transport aircraft, even more so than the American Galaxy transport aircraft.

So when Colonel Wu and others saw the internal space of the Flying Rubik's Cube, they realized the strategic importance of this thing without much thought!
When Chen Jue saw these military leaders looking around with an expression of "eager to recruit talents", he immediately realized that big business had come to him.

So he led everyone into the cabin of the Flying Cube for a tour.

"Dear leaders, the Flying Cube is a multifunctional vector manned aircraft jointly developed by our Cube Group and Juneyao Airlines. The aircraft is purely electric-driven, equipped with 21 'Cube Pioneer' electronic fuel injection engines and 10-ton Cube graphene lithium batteries." "The maximum take-off load of a single aircraft is 200 tons, and the maximum cruising speed is Mach 2.2. Because only simulated flights have been carried out in the workshop, the maximum cruising range is currently estimated to be about 9320 kilometers." Chen Jue began to introduce the parameters obtained during the test flight.

I just reported these key parameters.

All the base leaders who entered the cabin froze, as if they had seen a ghost!
"What did you say?"

"A payload of 200 tons? How is that possible!"

"A manned aircraft capable of supersonic cruise?"

"Purely electric! This aircraft is actually purely electric?!"

"Graphene lithium battery? Is it a solid-state battery? Isn't this thing still in the laboratory stage? How can it be mass-produced?"

The leaders of the base were collectively furious.

Because the performance parameters of this machine are too scary!
The leader, Colonel Wu, was the same, his eyes kept looking intently into the simple yet extremely ordinary cabin.

Because from his visual observation, the interior of this cube-shaped aircraft, just the cabin itself, was as high as a three-story building.

If no seating equipment is put in, at least 3 to 400 people can be crammed in just for standing.

If the 200-ton payload mentioned by the chairman of the Magic Cube Group can really be achieved, then the carrying capacity of this mysterious aircraft will be the best in the world.

After all, the world's last An-250 super-large transport aircraft, which was developed by the Antonov Design Bureau during the Soviet era and claimed to be able to carry 225 tons, was completely destroyed on the Russian-Ukrainian battlefield two years ago.

Even if Russia itself wants to replicate it, it cannot do so with its current industrial capabilities.

"Um... 200 tons is still a conservative estimate."

“If we don’t consider energy consumption and driving range, and put in a few more tons of batteries, there won’t be any problem in pulling three or four hundred tons.” Chen Jue scratched his head and said weakly.

Once these nonsense words were spoken, the base leaders who were walking around in the cabin could no longer sit still!
Colonel Wu asked: "This... Can the Flying Cube still fly now?"

Chen Jue nodded: "Yes, the battery still has 90% power."

"What are you waiting for! Conduct a low-altitude manned test flight immediately!"

The leading Colonel Wu was very excited. He called a messenger to run out of the cabin and gave orders to several teams of ground crew and soldiers lined up outside.

What he meant was simple.

High-tech things should be left to professional scientific researchers to work on.

They are a bunch of rough guys in the base and don't care about so many tricks.

To find out whether there is a load of several hundred tons, just put people and things in it and it can be measured immediately on site.

So within a few minutes, more than 200 young men with flat heads and armed with guns squeezed into the originally empty Flying Cube cabin.

Hearing the urging of the base leaders, Chen Jue pressed the start button of the Flying Rubik's Cube with a confused look on his face.

As the four electronic fuel injection engines at the bottom started, the Flying Cube that was originally parked in the hangar took off again.

In an extremely stable posture, it was suspended in the air more than 3 meters above the ground.

This scene not only made Colonel Wu and his companions burst into tears, but also a team of airmen observing from outside burst into enthusiastic cheers: "Wuhu~Take off!"
