In Arthur's plan to build 500 military aircraft, it includes 50 reconnaissance aircraft, 0 fighters, and 50 bombers, with a total cost of up to 5,05,500 Australian dollars, which is not a small number.

Ev that is only a few million Australian dollars less than the military budget of Australasia last year, which is ough to show the currt high cost of aircraft.

However, compared to these expses, the role these 500 aircraft will play is far greater than the cost.

After equipping all aircraft and forming combat capabilities, the naval and land forces of Australasia will be hanced for coastal operations and operations within a certain range.

The reason is nothing more than because Australasia has mastered the complete air superiority.

Imagine that if a certain country's naval and land forces were at war with the Australasian Army, and suddly hundreds of bombers appeared in the sky to conduct a bombing, who could stop them?

This is not only a huge, unprecedted threat to the army, but also a significant threat to warships within the bombing range.

At this momt, various warships have not mastered anti-aircraft weapons, and these 50 bombers can at least destroy a few dreadnoughts.

If the aircraft that was previously equipped is also included, after the completion of this aircraft order, the number of military aircraft equipped in Australasia will reach 560, far exceeding the total number of military aircraft equipped by other countries globally.

Of course, it is not clear whether other countries have military aircraft at the momt, and for the first time, Arthur felt the sse of isolated domination in Australasia in a specific area.

However, although a significant step ahead of other countries in military aircraft, Arthur currtly has no idea of completely publicizing the Air Force.

The last war with Portugal has already attracted the atttion of airships from all countries worldwide. After that war, many countries have begun investing in airship research and developmt and have made no small achievemts.

Although there are also cases of research and developmt failures, where is the success of all weapon research and developmt? Other countries have no doubt about the practicality of airships.

As far as Arthur knows, investmt in airships in Britain and Germany has already be significant, with at least several million pounds.

Of course, the achievemts are also outstanding, already catching up with or ev surpassing the achievemts of Australasian airships, and continuous research and experimtation are being carried out.

The success of these two countries has convinced the somewhat weaker powers and subordinates.

After all, the two most pott countries are continuously researching airships and making significant progress, so what reason do they have to doubt airships?

Up to now, the number of airships equipped in Europe has exceeded ,000. It can be said that this is a temporary airship gold age.

If no surprises occur, Arthur believes that the most magnifict momt of airships in history will be staged in Europe more than t years earlier, after all, the atttion and full-blown research and developmt of a top power are not jokes.

It is also because of the atttion of airships worldwide that various kinds of airship companies and factories have be born.

Although a specific business system has not yet be formed, Arthur believes that airships are about to become a major transportation tool in Europe and th spread from Europe to the whole world.

While airships do indeed have good transportation capabilities, certain areas of Australasia also use airships for transportation.

However, for air transportation, Arthur is more looking forward to airplanes.

Yes, after the last time Arthur requested an Aero Labs to develop a passger aircraft and four years of research, the first passger aircraft was finally born.

Of course, if you only carry passgers, in fact, the second-geration reconnaissance aircraft is already ready. However, this kind of aircraft that can only seat two people cannot be commercialized. To run a single trip for one person, how much would this plane ticket cost?

The first manned aircraft developed by the Aeronautical Research Room is named SF by Director Theodore.

SF actually means safe because the most important thing for an aircraft with multiple passgers is to sure the safety of people.

SF can currtly accommodate up to sev passgers, excluding the driver, with a maximum load of .5 tons.

Because the seating position is in the belly of the plane, this also caused the SF to have a big belly and was ev jokingly referred to as Big Belly No. by the researchers of the Aerospace Laboratory.

As the SF carries more people and weight, the average flight speed of this manned aircraft is only 70 km/h, and the maximum flight speed is only 95 km/h.

This flight speed is far behind military aircraft, but it is ough for manned flights.

After all, neither the currt trains nor the ships can reach the terrifying speed of 70 km/h.

For example, the currt passger trains in Australasia, with an average speed of only 70 km/h, the maximum speed is only 85 km/h.

Not to mtion ships, the speed is far behind trains, let alone comparable to aircraft.
