Even if Xia Yu dared to buy it, no one dared to buy it. It had to be melted into copper ingots first.
He used to watch videos on pipe transport on Bilibili, and there was a guy nicknamed Copper Smelting Addict. His videos of home metal smelting were very relaxing. Unfortunately, Xia Yu didn't have a small gas blast furnace like his at home.
No, he had something better than a blast furnace.
"Buzz~~"
The ship's crane lifted a Yak-141 from the hangar, while Feng Manxue and Lin Rou took out the shell casings from the tank. They didn't know what Xia Yu was going to do, but they just had to obey.
“Swoosh~~”
Xia Yu got his upper body into the cockpit of the Yak-141, started the engine, controlled the tail nozzle to tilt to a certain angle, then opened the throttle valve to increase fuel, and the hot and bright tail flame instantly ejected.
Now the color of the tail flame is golden yellow, and the temperature is about 1300 degrees Celsius, while the melting point of copper is only 1083.4 degrees Celsius, which is enough for him to smelt copper.
Wearing heat-insulating gloves, Xia Yu clamped a shell casing with an iron clamp and held it against the tail flame. The copper shell instantly turned red and deformed, gradually melting into liquid and falling into the crucible below.
The melting point of iron is 1538 degrees Celsius. The temperature of the tail flame can only heat the iron clamp but cannot melt it. Xia Yu's method of smelting copper is considered a "primitive" method. After all, the conditions are too harsh.
In this way, the shell casings were melted into copper ingots and neatly stacked in the suitcase.
After the vacation, Xia Yu will take them back to China and sell them to the scrap collection station in his hometown community. He remembers that the price of scrap copper should be around 20 kilograms at this time.
This, this doesn’t seem to be enough to buy the aviation fuel he burned?
Forget it, forget it, I'm willing to do it even if it's priceless. During World War II, the American Air Force flew fighter jets into the sky to make ice cream, and they used taxpayers' money. But he used his own money, so he just treated it as warming up the fighter jets.
After refueling the Yak-141, it was time for dinner, so Xia Yu returned to the restaurant to eat.
Today's lunch menu includes grilled tuna belly, tuna tofu soup, and steamed tuna tail. Yuan Qiansui was afraid that Xia Yu would be hungry in the afternoon, so she made him a tuna sandwich for him to eat on the plane.
This is truly a tuna feast. It looks like Xia Yu can fulfill his wish of eating bluefin tuna until he vomits. What does cherry freedom mean to him?
After enjoying the fish feast, as the appointed time was approaching, he changed into a gravity suit and put on a flight helmet.
“Swoosh~~”
Driving the warhawk into the sky, the Yak-141 quickly disappeared at the end of the horizon.
Although Xia Yu wanted to switch to flying the Sea Harrier, the strongest kill record of the Sea Harrier was only the Mirage III fighter of the United States. At most, it could fight against the MiG-21. To fight against the MiG-29, it had to use the Jagd-141.
They rushed to the airspace of the uninhabited islands and reefs. On the other side of the Hawaiian island of Lanai, David Ellison boarded the plane at his father's urging, while old Larry changed to the MB-339 advanced trainer aircraft. He was mainly there to watch the battle today.
The two fighter jets took off one after another, and after saying hello to the military, they rushed to the deep Pacific Ocean. With the father and son fighting together, they should be able to defeat that little Chinese brat today, right?
Xia Yu is more than 50 years younger than old Larry and more than ten years younger than David. There is nothing wrong with calling him a kid, but ambition is not limited by age, and don't bully the young and poor.
At 1:30 in the afternoon, Xia Yu arrived at the target airspace first. The airborne radar did not scan the target, so the other party should still be two hundred kilometers away.
So he should take this time to lose some weight?
“Swoosh~~”
Xia Yu lowered the nose of the plane and dived, and both he and the plane fell towards the island like a cannonball.
"Woo~~"
Amidst the rapid sounds of gunfire, a bright flame flashed from the lower fairing on the right side of the Yak-141 fuselage.
How could a fighter jet not be equipped with a weapon system? Not to mention missiles, a 30mm Gsh-6-30 six-barreled machine gun is the last combat weapon of the Yak-141.
Xia Yu wanted to come to the island for shooting exercises yesterday, but unfortunately he met Larry Ellison and was dragged into an air combat simulation. He only remembered this after landing.
He had been keeping this in mind today, and since he arrived early, it would be a good idea to use the machine gun to hit the rocks without hurting the flowers and plants.
The maximum firing rate of the machine gun is 6,000 rounds per minute. Even if Xia Yu slowed down the firing rate, the gun was still used up quickly. The fuselage is somewhat lighter, and it can be more flexible without the auxiliary fuel tank.
David Ellison is on today, he can't just give in to others anymore, right?
“Beep~beep~beep~~”
The alarm sounded and the radar issued a warning. He saw two targets on the screen flying towards him at high speed.
(There are still 1,000 words left, try to revise it before 1 a.m.!)
Wearing heat-insulating gloves, Xia Yu clamped a shell casing with an iron clamp and held it against the tail flame. The copper shell instantly turned red and deformed, gradually melting into liquid and falling into the crucible below.
The melting point of iron is 1538 degrees Celsius. The temperature of the tail flame can only heat the iron clamp but cannot melt it. Xia Yu's method of smelting copper is considered a "primitive" method. After all, the conditions are too harsh.
