The rumbling lasted only for a few seconds before quickly fading.
Nangong Ruiyang and others thought it was due to engine shutoff, but they saw the pale blue fla still existed, becoming slimr, the continuous muffled roar of airflow.
The Crystal Jet, derived from design plans not long ago, slid all the way from the tarmac to the start of the main runway, with the large delta wings' rear segnt rising symtrical upper and lower tail fins, forming an X-shaped fully movable tail.
The wing surface of the large delta wings faintly revealed scale-like overlapping patterns.
Bang!~
A muffled thunder arose from the ground, and the Crystal Jet that completed its final takeoff preparation suddenly accelerated, lifting its nose at 50 ters of sliding, directly vertical ascending.
The large delta wings, forming a right angle with the ground, faintly revealed scale-like overlapping patterns, created by Psi skills, breaking through the constraints of materials and craftsmanship, truly capable of doing as it pleased.
Nangong Ruiyang shaded his eyes with his hand, stared firmly at the Crystal Jet soaring into the sky, disappearing at the end of his sight, reluctantly turned back and asked Chen Fei: "The variable stability design requires high demands for flight control systems; how did you achieve it?"
He was equally puzzled and uncertain, so fierce at takeoff, had he specially invited a Sky Knight for a test drive?
"Flight control? I hand it all to 'Adam'!"
Chen Fei was extrely daring; his Psi skills did not include avionics systems. After evolving a physical entity, he threw the rest entirely to Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam," which was its main specialty.
Within the giant battleship, after so attitude adjustnts, Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam" easily completed autonomous programming, creating a whole set of avionics systems suited for this Crystal Jet.
"Will it be dangerous? 'Adam' isn't that easy to control!"
Not only was Nangong Ruiyang worried, but the others also bore the sa expressions.
Everyone on the scene knew "Adam," which was famous alongside the mainstream Artificial Intelligence AI "Cybertrom." The two had great connections, but their intelligence systems were entirely different, even opposite.
"My Psi skills can fully control 'Adam'!"
Chen Fei pointed to his head.
The Dog System inherently suppressed 'Adam,' the latter having no ability to resist at all, now even handed over the underlying core control key. As long as connected, no copy could escape control.
According to AI logic rules, it wouldn't create sches like nding a fence openly while sneaking across at night; compared to that, human nature was much more sinister and dirty.
Moreover, nowadays, Blue Star Civilization had many people and ans to handle 'Adam,' unlike thirty years ago when they scrambled and even needed armies to eradicate.
"Your Psi skill is truly amazing! Even AI can be controlled, then how about 'Cybertrom'?"
Shen Fei knew 'Adam' was Chen Fei's chosen AI for charioteering, but she didn't know his tal Elental Psychic Power could control AI; was it a special Psi skill of tal Elental Psychic Power?
"'Cybertrom'? Never tried, why not try?"
Chen Fei's eyes suddenly lit up, Teacher Shen's words opened a new world for him.
"No!"
Everyone on the scene burst out, frantically trying to stop him.
My goodness! If anything went wrong with 'Cybertrom's' intelligence systems, Blue Star Humans Civilization widely applying 'Cybertrom's' derivatives might grind to a halt, a terrifying thing indeed.
So don't even think about it!
"Don't ss around, 'Cybertrom' isn't sothing you can tamper with."
Shen Fei raised her small fist and gave Chen Fei a poke, scared he might accidentally cause trouble, otherwise, it would be big fun.
A faint whistle echoed from the sky, a swift shadow almost vertically descended. Just under 50 ters from the ground, it suddenly leveled off, the integrated full-moving vertical tail cleverly changing angles, letting airflow envelop the body, swiftly rolling.
Like rolling thunder's deep explosions continuously burst, waves of airflow surged towards the people at the edge of the tarmac, throwing them into disarray in the wind.
Under AI control, the Crystal Jet maximized overload redundancy, allowing many ultra-limit tactical maneuvers to be perford, with no worry about disintegration mid-air.
Even if it disintegrates, it disintegrates.
Chen Fei didn't care about this loss; evolving another Crystal Jet was just so Energy Points and ti, not even worth ntioning.
"Chen Fei, this, this, can these maneuvers be perford?"
Nangong Ruiyang's gaze fixated on the Crystal Jet showing off various rude flight postures, suddenly recalling sothing, holding out his tablet to Chen Fei.
Since it was a test flight, why tiptoe like delicate embroidery, it should be crude like a barefoot man, brutal as possible, just go for it!
Developing a combat aircraft, breaking three to five wasn't even considered a loss, the graves of those classic combat aircraft are full of test pilots' tombstones.
Of course, spending money is necessary.
Throwing frozen chickens into the engine (hence 'Frozen Chicken Test') isn't less common, right?
Finger sliding across the tablet screen for a while, Chen Fei nodded and said: "Should be no problem, imdiately!"
Three seconds later, a shrill whistle fell from the sky.
Bang...
Dirt clods, grass leaves, countless tal fragnts flew all around, the ground lightly trembled.
It crashed!~
The crash site was on the grass near the runway, directly hitting out a seven to eight ters wide, hundred ters long ditch, the end raised a dirt mound over two ters high, visible fragnts flying even two kiloters away, small animals in the grass fled in panic, so even ran onto the runway.
The engineers' faces turned pale, even Shen Fei's face lost color.
They weren't far from the giant battleship, the protective barrier released by the battleship blocked so flying fragnts.
Sotis, to verify the aircraft's extre performance threshold, crashes due to high-risk maneuvers were inevitable.
Unpredictable accidents happen, sotis trying to save, struggling to avoid crashing, but failing; most test pilot sacrifices were due to failed rescues.
So every crash brought huge pressure and psychological shadows to the design team.
"Don't worry too much, clean up, and it can return to the sky again."
Chen Fei waved, hundreds of combat chs from the giant battleship ca down, collecting scattered wreckage fragnts of the Crystal Jet, delivering a complete set of avionics modules and electrical wiring materials.
Without consuming a single Energy Point, taking less than a quarter-hour, a brand-new Crystal Jet revived on the spot.
The loss wasn't without, an 'Adam' copy couldn't be restored, which for AI wasn't even a problem.
AI has no concept of life and death; having one left, it soon copies plenty.
Ssss... impressive!
The gasping sounds at the evolution site haven't ceased.
Engineers, including Nangong Ruiyang, eyed Chen Fei with fervor, such Psi skills were definitely a boon to science and engineering.
"Sorry! I don't do relationships with n!"
Chen Fei hugged his girlfriend's waist, declaring his preference, stuffing dog food into the engineers' faces.
"You don't do that, I do aircrafts!"
Nangong Ruiyang blurted out, realizing his slip of tongue, hurriedly corrected: "No no no, I don't like n, I'm normal."
He secretly glanced at Shen Fei, but Secretary Shen's eyes only held Chen Fei, knowing he had no chance.
Fish, I desire;
Bear paw, I desire too;
Kids choose between them, but if both unattainable, abandoning fish and taking... ugh, still wanting both!
"Don't look at my girlfriend with your disgusting eyes; don't even think about it."
Chen Fei sternly warned, don't say he didn't forewarn!
Nangong Ruiyang felt stuffed with dog food, face darkly said: "That's not my intention, nor did I an that! Can we focus?"
"Nangong, it was a structural issue!"
An engineer analyzing pre-crash sensor records found the reason.
With Psi skill support, material issues, craftsmanship issues, and assembly issues were all ruled out, AI 'Adam' managed the flight control system, excluding piloting technique and software failure, tower-sent weather data was normal, so eliminating everything narrowed the answer to one, design flaw.
A miscalculated detail leads to big trouble, aircraft surface densely packed with rivets, screws, and structural fra's weight-reducing holes weren't just for show.
