Chapter 228 Veneto One_1

Xiao Okada didn't quite understand Xie Liaofu's point. The maintenance cost of H1 was already 20 million, which meant the launch system was less than 10 million? How was that possible?

Xie Liaofu opened his X16 laptop and flipped the touch screen to a 180-degree angle to activate the electronic drawing board.

"Look, if we build an unmanned H1, not a manned one, and raise the internal temperature limit to the maximum threshold of 60 degrees, will the weight reduction be enough to fit a ten-ton payload, and can we lower the maintenance cost to below 20 million?"

"Of course, that's no problem. Whether it's 20 degrees or 60 degrees, there's no difference to the equipment. In that case, I think 16 million would definitely be enough for maintenance. The insulation layer would certainly be greatly simplified."

Xie Liaofu: "Then, it comes down to the method of launch. Have you heard of the MAKS project?"
