S.H.I.E.L.D. Aerospace Company!

However, most of them are still in the early preparation and project initiation stages, and only a very few companies, such as the United States Aerion Corporation mentioned earlier, have entered the research and development and testing stage. It will be a long time before they are truly put on the market.

Since Chen Mo possessed top-notch aircraft manufacturing technology and had a need for it, he didn't plan to build a propeller plane to practice first. Instead, he simply started manufacturing a supersonic passenger plane!

At this point, Chen Mo's previous vigorous development of S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto began to show results. A large number of skilled workers, technicians, engineers, and administrative personnel were transferred to S.H.I.E.L.D. Aerospace Company. In addition, J.A.R.V.I.S. recruited a large number of aerospace talents, and the framework of S.H.I.E.L.D. Aerospace Company was quickly established. After Chen Mo provided the complete set of blueprints and production technology data for the aircraft, the construction of the first aircraft was quickly put into operation.

Chen Mo did not intend to build a medium-sized passenger plane like the Concorde that could accommodate more than a hundred passengers, but rather a small business jet that could accommodate a dozen or so people.

While some wealthy individuals may like to convert large passenger planes like the Boeing 747 (over 70 meters long) into spacious private jets, most people travel with no more than 20 entourage members, making it unnecessary to purchase large private jets. Therefore, the private jet sector still sees the greatest demand, with small and medium-sized aircraft dominating the market.

The reason Chen Mo was able to produce the blueprints directly, without needing to modify them like he had done with the car blueprints, was because the blueprints he produced were actually for an outdated and obsolete supersonic bomber from HYDRA!

Although it was considered an "outdated" aircraft that HYDRA had phased out, that was only in comparison to the superior technology HYDRA possessed. Its performance was in no way inferior to supersonic bombers from other countries in the real world, and in many aspects it even surpassed them.

This supersonic bomber has a fuselage length of 35 meters and originally had a large bomb bay. The overall structure does not need major modifications. Only a slight modification to the cabin layout is needed to meet the needs of a private aircraft.

As a supersonic strategic bomber, its Gao Fei speed can reach Mach 3, which is more than 3,600 kilometers per hour, half as fast as the once popular Concorde!

The distance from Los Angeles to Bincheng used to be several kilometers, and a regular flight would take twelve hours, but this plane can get there in less than three hours, which is more than four times faster than a regular plane!

However, this aircraft is not cheap to build. At three times the speed of sound, the requirements for the strength and heat resistance of the fuselage materials are extremely high, and the original H-2 special alloy can no longer meet the requirements.

HYDRA naturally has several Super Alloy and special materials specifically used for manufacturing supersonic aircraft. Although their cost is much cheaper than the incredibly expensive Titanium Alloy used by various countries in the fields of fighter jets and aerospace, almost half of the main structure of the entire aircraft uses these materials, making the overall cost of the aircraft very high. Preliminary calculations show that it has reached tens of millions of US dollars, which exceeds the price of most luxury private jets.

Moreover, Chen Mo couldn't possibly calculate based on the true cost. After all, no one knows the true value of these alloys and special materials. He would definitely calculate based on the current world's normal level. As for whether anyone would buy if the price was too high, well...

Are the Knight expensive? Are the Thunder expensive?

If you ask people who bought the car whether it's worth it, their answer will definitely be "It's totally worth it!"

Why did major aircraft manufacturers start investing in the research and development of supersonic passenger aircraft? Because there is sufficient market demand. People who can afford private jets may not necessarily be very wealthy, since a cheaper small private jet only costs a few million dollars. However, those who want to buy Supersonic Private Jet are all the world's top billionaires. Money is just a number to them. Compared to faster speed and timeliness, price is not a problem at all!

Moreover, the advantages of this Supersonic Private Jet don't stop there, but we'll have to wait until the aircraft is actually manufactured to truly experience them.

Even if no one buys it, Chen Mo will consider it as something he built for himself. As the boss, he travels far and wide all the time and has to wear his battle suit to travel around. He deserves to indulge himself and enjoy himself. Chen Mo has already decided that the first plane he builds will be kept for his own use!

Although Chen Mo provided the blueprints and related technologies, aircraft manufacturing is not something that can be done overnight. While many related electronic instruments, radars, and other equipment can be purchased from abroad, the most crucial turbojet engine needs to be manufactured by themselves.

However, with the extensive manufacturing experience of S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto Company, along with complete technical drawings and supporting special alloy materials, the engine manufacturing was not too difficult.

However, with the establishment of several new companies, Chen Mo began to feel that he didn't have enough people at his disposal.

Workers, technicians, and administrative staff are relatively easy to manage; they can simply be recruited directly. J.A.R.V.I.S. has the screening and oversight capabilities, and the core technologies are well protected, so there's no need to worry about leaks.

However, Chen Mo, the company's top management, did not intend to hire just anyone to take charge. After all, loyalty still needs to be cultivated. Newly recruited people should start from middle management, be trained little by little, and after confirming that they have sufficient ability and loyalty, they can be entrusted with independent responsibilities in the future. But for the time being, there is no suitable candidate. The old guards of S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto Company are good at maintaining the status quo, but they are not enough to explore new fields and lead the development of new companies.

Therefore, Chen Mo currently has a severe shortage of senior management talent.

Chen Mo fondly remembers the days in the worlds of Captain America and Iron Man, when HYDRA and S.H.I.E.L.D.. were there to serve him, and he didn't have to worry about such things.

Now that there's a way to bring people back from the movie world to the real world, Chen Mo is determined to bring back a group of his men the next time he returns to the world of Iron Man!

However, although there is a shortage of talent, it is not to the point that the work cannot be carried out.

With S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto and S.H.I.E.L.D. Machinery now fully mature and operating stably, Chen Mo removed Su Wan and Anna from their positions. S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto was taken over by General Manager Michael, while S.H.I.E.L.D. Machinery was headed by a high-performing former senior executive from S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto. The third phase of the industrial park's construction was also handed over to Michael. With the foundation laid by Su Wan and Anna, they only needed to proceed step by step, and Chen Mo believed they could do a good job.
