Chapter 1280 Coming to Osad

As the ignition order came, I saw the rocket on the TV screen. First, a white smoke came out from the bottom, and then a flame, hot gas, instantly surrounded the entire launch pad.

On the launch pad, the rocket trembled slightly for a second, and then it began to take off.

At the beginning, it flew very slowly, and three flames could be seen from the three engines at the rear.

This is the easiest way. When the thrust of one engine is insufficient, then several engines are connected in parallel to increase the thrust. This is the reason why our own rocket can develop a secondary rocket so quickly.

However, this is not optimal. If the required thrust is large, then more engines must be connected in parallel. Thinking about the Soviet Union in later generations, in order to land on the moon first, it was a rocket with 30 NK-15 engines connected in parallel. Thirty units are arranged in a circle, which looks very violent aesthetics. Unfortunately, the reliability is greatly reduced. As a result, one launch fails once, and the moon landing plan has to be abandoned.

The Soviets woke up from the Great Leap Forward and started to work on big rockets, which finally came to fruition. It is a pity that the Soviet Union had disintegrated at that time. As a result, the Energy rocket had only been launched twice before it died.

Germany's current rocket plan is one step at a time. Although the existing technology is used for the sake of speed, the three V-2 engines are connected in parallel, but the follow-up high-thrust engine is being developed in an orderly manner, until the development is successful. , then there can be long-range missiles, and even intercontinental missiles.

Now, watching the rocket lift off gradually, everyone present cheered.

The rocket kept rising and the speed was getting faster and faster. Finally, only the tail smoke was captured by the camera, so the screen switched to the launch hall again.

The development of computer technology has brought great convenience to Germany's aerospace industry. For example, now, on the giant display screen in the launch hall, there are two lines, one is the predetermined orbit, which is calculated by the computer and output to The one on the screen, and the other, is the trajectory observed by the large radar inside the launch base.

The two trajectories, which are almost coincident, indicate that the rocket is flying along the correct path.

At this time, the experts inside were all staring at the screen nervously. They watched the flight of their own aircraft suddenly paused, and then continued to accelerate. "The first-stage rocket fell off normally, and the second-stage rocket ignited successfully!"

Immediately, everyone cheered. For them, a successful launch is not considered a success. It must be ensured that the first level falls off and the second level is ignited, then it is considered a success.

There were cheers everywhere, and in the wolf's den, everyone was smiling.

"According to our current technological development, in another two years, we will have missiles that can directly hit the United States." Keitel said: "At that time, even if we do not use bombers, we can directly use missiles to threaten the United States. ."

Many weapons developed by Germany were prepared to deal with the United States. Now that the missiles are progressing rapidly, Keitel's words have won the appreciation of many people.

"Yes, but for us, the missile that hits the United States is only a small goal. Our big goal is to launch artificial satellites, land on the moon, and explore deep space." Cyric said with a smile.

Using rocket technology to develop missiles is only one aspect. In later generations, artificial satellites will be an important way to change human life. Just navigating satellites will bring about huge changes.

Cyric's vision has always been long-term. If others say that they will land on the moon, they must be joking, but since President Cyric said so, it must be possible.

"Unfortunately, this rocket is too big. If we want to launch maneuvers, transportation will be a problem," Scherner said.

Germany's existing V-2 missiles were improved using the chassis of an all-wheel drive off-road truck, and the new missiles, three times the length of the existing ones, are not suitable for use in such vehicles, and must be improved. .

In Cyric's mind, a big guy like the Soviet missile launcher of later generations appeared. It seems that it is time to develop this kind of chassis, but it seems that he has a ready-made one now, right?

"What do you think about our rat tank chassis?" Cyric said with a smile.

The big man of the mouse tank, after improvement, it is completely no problem to carry this kind of missile on the back, and even better, this chassis is tracked, and it is more convenient to move than the wheeled one.

"Führer Cyric, what you said makes sense, but the transportation of this kind of chassis is inconvenient." Speer said with emotion.

The 502nd Heavy Armored Battalion encountered this problem.

After receiving the order, the 502 heavy tank battalion was eager to rush to the battlefield immediately. They took the train all the way to the border between Romania and the Soviet Union. After getting off the train, they fell into a speechless situation.

They can no longer take the train, they can only rely on the trailer they brought, and drag the rat tank to the battlefield.

However, the bridges along the way could not bear the weight of the rat tank.

The rat tank is 150 tons, and with the reinforced trailer, it has a full 200 tons. The bridges along the way have a carrying capacity of dozens of tons. Therefore, the engineers can only reinforce the bridges all the way in front.

Although the off-road of the rat tank is no problem, its off-road travel is quite limited. Good steel is used on the blade. The rat tank will only come off the trailer after entering the battlefield.

And now, their progress is rather slow.

"Long, rumbling." The 8*8 tractor roared loudly. In front of it, there was a Tiger tank with a traction rope behind it, pulling the trailer.

Now it is equivalent to the Tiger and the tractor dragging the trailer behind, because it is uphill.

Ossad is surrounded by mountains. If you want to go to Ossad to fight, you have to climb over these mountains.

There are traces of fighting everywhere on the road. The Romanians fought tenaciously, all the way to the outskirts of Osad, and now they are on the road of the Romanians' attack.

Come on! Battalion Commander Mark shouted loudly from the side.

He looked at the black smoke coming out of the engine of the Tiger tank, but it didn't move, and the 8*8 trailer behind it and the four wide off-road tires on one side were all idling, but the trailer behind it didn't move!

The back is so heavy and the hills are so steep that they are almost at their towing limit.

"Come on!" Hans shouted loudly. Behind him, dozens of young men followed him to the side of the trailer, their bodies leaned forward, their hands pushed the side of the trailer, their The military uniform on his body has long been stained gray with dust.

"One, two, push!" Hans shouted, and as they pushed hard, the wheels of the off-road trailer in front were moving forward again!

Mark nodded with satisfaction. He knew that the officers and soldiers under him had a lot of history, and now, these officers and soldiers behaved just like ordinary imperial soldiers. They were not afraid of hardship, fatigue, and selfless dedication. The best soldier!

Finally, the trailer drove to the top of the mountain, Hans wiped the sweat from his face, and suddenly raised his head, what was flying in the sky in the distance?
