[Chapter 576: Red Eagle Department]
...
During this joint landing operation, both sides dispatched personnel, with a total of nine armed tactical teams. Yang Licheng is the supreme operation commander and Blacksiton is the deputy commander. This nine-man Sino-US hybrid armed tactical team consists of five Chinese and four Americans respectively. Xiaozhuang is the main driver of the manned landing machine. "Wang Jiang" means: Ren Hong and Aislin are also involved as scientists.
This time, the landing in Pezos Heights consists of a team of fourteen people.
Ren Hong's new discovery made everyone gather together again to hold an extraordinary meeting, and the original task action plan was also adjusted, delaying the login operation for several hours. Fortunately, there was no big problem.
After 30 hours, the login operation officially began.
Ren Hong and other members of the planet landing completed the third assembly. Under the leadership of Ning Zebo, everyone walked out of the centrifugal cabin to another space capsule. Fifteen people were all wearing tight short sleeves and pants, drifting forward in the main passage cabin of the "Firefire Space Station".
There were many windows in the middle, and many people looked out into outer space through the window. They could see two huge aircraft in front of them were fixed by a truss that was more than 30 meters long. The diameter of the truss was 7 meters wide. This was a hollow passage and entered the corridor of the aircraft.
At this moment, the two trusses are more than 60 meters long in total, and two aircraft are fixed respectively, and are slowly rotating on the main cabin truss of the "Flower Space Station".
The two aircraft have a unified official title, namely: space orbit and planetary carrier, with models of the first generation (first generation). The two spacecraft also have their own independent code names, namely "Red Eagle-001" and "Red Eagle-002".
As its name suggests, the appearance of the two aircraft of the "Red Eagle" is mirrored with the color of the Martian surface. The whole body is red and copper in a long rectangular shape. The three views of the spacecraft are as if they are parallelograms, the spacecraft is as if they are looking at the side, and the spacecraft is as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are as if they are
Americans who came here discovered something very interesting. The Chinese seem to have a special liking for the name of big guys who can fly, including weapons and missiles, such as the anti-ship missile "Eagle Strike System", including the power a "Republic Eagle" which is currently famous all over the world, the nine aerospace transport aircraft "Arc Eagle" produced by cmsx, the current landing vehicle "Red Eagle" and so on.
When everyone arrived at the last corner, Ning Zebo stood at the corner and did not move. Commander Yang Licheng took the lead and led everyone through the 30-meter-long truss passage.
On the way, an American astronaut couldn't help asking: "Sir Yang, I'm curious about how this spacecraft landed?"
"You will know soon." Yang Licheng smiled slightly, opened the cabin door and entered the spacecraft first. Everyone came to the cabin of "Red Eagle-002". The Americans expressed their surprise. After entering the interior, they found that the carrying capacity of this landing vehicle was far beyond their expectations.
Xiaozhuang had already brought his deputy into the cab. Eleven people in the core cabin sat on two rows of seats in the cabin according to the serial number and fixed them with safety bolts. A double row of six pairs of twelve-wheeled Mars rover was fixed in the center of the cabin, and three containers were fixed.
Members sitting in the two rows were also isolated by the cargo boxes and rovers in the middle and could not see each other.
The carrying capacity of the "Red Eagle-002" has reached an astonishing more than 70 tons. All members of the landing have been on the line, but dozens of empty spaces are still vacant in the two rows of the cabin. The spacecraft can transport up to 40 members and four sub-container cargo at one time, or without transporting personnel, the cabin can load seven sub-container cargo after a simple modification, with a maximum load of 73 tons.
This time the spacecraft carried only about 40 tons, far from reaching the maximum carrying tonnage.
Twenty minutes later, the "Red Eagle-002" vehicle officially separated from the space station and began to "fall into" the atmosphere of Mars. The crew members could not see the outside world, but after the spacecraft had the first close contact with the atmosphere of the planet, the bumps followed.
On the Martian skyline, I saw the huge "Red Eagle-002" like a stream of light passing through the sky.
"Why should I carry a Mars rover down?" Acelyn, the only woman sitting next to Ren Hong, asked, enduring the discomfort caused by slowing down.
"Because, the landing point is a distance from the Pezos area." Ren Hong replied.
"I don't understand what you mean." Aislin shook his head.
"Well, because there is no good enough empty landing runway in the Pezos area, the Red Eagle will complete a hard landing in the plain sand 22 kilometers away from Pezos. Well, it's the same as the Airbus landing runway, which can be understood in this way." Ren Hong said.
As soon as he finished speaking, some Americans who heard it turned their heads and looked at him, "What??"
"It's going to land!" Ren Hong ignored the surprised Americans, but looked up at a crystal panel showing the distance between the spacecraft and the ground. The Americans suddenly became nervous and subconsciously held their seats tightly.
Ren Hong saw his partners' surprise and nervous expressions, and smiled and comforted: "Relax, guys, the 'Red Eagle-Series' transport ship has super environmental adaptability. You can think of 'Red Eagle 2' as a US c-130a transport aircraft. The design concept of this transport ship was obtained from the c-130a. Obviously, the adaptability of the C-130 series transport aircraft is the best choice."
"I see."
Americans are not unfamiliar with their own C-130 Series transport aircraft. The original model can be traced back to the last century. The carrying capacity of this transport aircraft may be average, but its biggest highlight is its adaptability to harsh environments and its ability to take off and land at will in beaches, grasslands, sands and other environments. As long as it is flat ground and as long as it is open enough, it is its runway. Compared with other spoiled large aircraft, the C-130 Series is simply perfect and is also the favorite of the US military. The retirement of the C-130 once made the United States sad for a long time.
I didn't expect that the Chinese Mars landing vehicle actually referenced the C-130 series transport aircraft, which was a little surprised.
Pezos region.
"Red Eagle-002" is less than 500 meters away from the Mars surface, but its speed is still astonishingly fast as it exceeds the speed of sound. The Martian atmosphere is thin and not fast enough. Such a large-sized aircraft is out of control in minutes.
However, the "Red Eagle" is about to arrive at the established landing area, and it is time to land immediately.
Just as the spacecraft began to slow down, multiple sub-engines on the abdomen of the spacecraft frantically ejected flames and pushed the huge spacecraft upward, causing the "Red Eagle 2" to slow down horizontally and stably.
