Chapter 350: Ballistic Missiles (8)
Yan Mingcheng looked at the small fish in front of him that exuded a fishy smell, and he suddenly thought of a way to make it real. Be prepared for the next time you encounter such a problem, there is a good solution. In this way, there will be no interference from these stinky fish when developing weapons.
"Old Yan! We are all soldiers, how can we be like this! How can a soldier confuse the real with the fake!" Zhao Zhongyao listened to Yan Mingcheng's words, and made another joke with him.
"Don't say that, it's because we're soldiers that we're confusing the real with the fake! Just like what we're doing now, isn't it just the fake to be true!" Yan Mingcheng listened to Zhao Zhongyao's words, and then laughed and defended.
"Well, you're saying that. It seems that we really have to be true in the future!" Zhao Zhongyao listened to Yan Mingcheng's words, and he was a little speechless to refute.
"Hey, don't talk about these useless things. Zhongyao, you better hurry up and study your ballistic missiles! I won't bother you. Yan Mingcheng knew that now their task was also urgent, so he didn't want to bother Zhao Zhongyao anymore.
When Zhao Zhongyao heard this, he looked at Yan Mingcheng and said, "I have already developed a ballistic missile warhead, but I don't know how to do it yet! Let's take it to the workshop to test it." ”
Zhao Zhongyao has been specially used in the study of ballistic missile warheads in the past few days, and he thinks that since he wants to make the warhead resistant to high temperatures, he can only use a metal like tungsten. Only tungsten has a high melting point, and it may be used to make warheads for ballistic missiles.
"Yes, then let's go test it!" As soon as Yan Mingcheng heard Zhao Zhongyao say this, he and Zhao Zhongyao came to the workshop again.
Zhao Zhongyao put a tungsten warhead that had been developed long ago on the test device. Yan Mingcheng also came to help, and the two of them tied this tungsten warhead to a ring of the annular device.
Next, Zhao Zhongyao pressed the switch, and the ring device suddenly spun rapidly. And the speed is getting faster and faster, almost to the point where you can't see what's on the ring.
About half an hour later, Zhao Zhongyao turned off the switch again. The circular ring slowly stopped.
At this time, Zhao Zhongyao looked at it with some dejection, the tungsten warhead he had developed before had been melted at high temperature, and the warhead was completely dented into it.
"Zhongyao, this is not very good! It seems that you still can't use a tungsten warhead! Look at it, the whole warhead is dented in. ”
Yan Mingcheng also saw a phenomenon that surprised him a little, the very hard metal tungsten melted at a high temperature. So that the warhead, which was originally very sharp, is now flattened.
"Yes! Tungsten warhead still can't be used! What can I do! Tungsten is already the element with the highest melting point!"
Zhao Zhongyao looked at the scene in front of him, which made him a little discouraged, and he didn't know what kind of warhead to develop next.
"Zhongyao, don't be in a hurry and take your time! Maybe the enemy, like us, is also testing this kind of warhead, but the test has failed!"
Yan Mingcheng saw that Zhao Zhongyao was a little discouraged, so he comforted Zhao Zhongyao.
"I'm not going to give up. I'll continue to work on it. Zhao Zhongyao said as he came out of the workshop.
Yan Mingcheng knew that Zhao Zhongyao needed a quiet environment. So he didn't follow, but asked Zhao Zhongyao to go outside alone to be quiet.
And Jonnis was the same, he also conducted a test of a warhead, and he also used a tungsten warhead! As long as you have some knowledge of physics, you know that tungsten is the metal with the highest melting point of all metals.
Now if you want to use a metal that is resistant to high temperatures, it is of course tungsten!
Jonnis with his student, Wesley. A test was conducted, and the purpose was the same as Zhao Zhongyao's idea, that is, to test whether the tungsten warhead they developed could withstand extremely high temperatures.
But the results of the test also disappointed him. Because the results of their experiments were the same as those of Zhao Zhongyao.
Their tungsten warhead also melted on the rotating device, and the entire warhead became a pit.
"Hey, how can this be! How can this kind of warhead still not withstand the test of high temperatures!" Jonnis was now very unhappy looking at the warhead he had developed, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
"Teacher, you don't have to worry, no experiment can be successful at one time! Wesley wasn't in a hurry, he was quite able to hold his breath.
"Wesley, don't you know that tungsten has the highest melting point of all metals!
Jonnis listened to Wesley's words, and he also said helplessly.
"Teacher, you can also try it with titanium! Isn't the melting point of titanium also very high!" Wesley listened to Jonice's words, and he gave his opinion.
"The melting point of titanium is very high, but it is not as high as the melting point of tungsten! You say that you can't use tungsten, so you say it's okay to use tungsten!"
Wesley told his teacher what he thought again.
"What you think is very good, but even if the melting point of titanium is very high, dare not have the melting point of tungsten!
Jonnis listened to Wesley's words, he was a little unimpressed, feeling that what Wesley said was a little unreliable and didn't work at all.
"No, teacher, don't look at the melting point of titanium is lower than tungsten, but the thermal conductivity of this metal is lower than that of tungsten, and the hardness is also higher than that of tungsten. I think you can experiment with it as well. ”
Wesley spoke his thoughts to Jonis.
Jonnis listened to it and felt that there was still some truth.
"Well, yes, you kid is getting smarter and smarter! I think I can test it. ”
Jonnis listened to Wesley's analysis, and he felt that there was some truth to it.
So the master and apprentice destroyed the original warhead and redeveloped the titanium warhead.
After a week of development, they finally produced a completely new warhead, that is, a titanium warhead.
"Teacher, we can test it again now, there should be no problem, this kind of warhead should be more resistant to high temperatures than tungsten warheads. ”
Wesley was confident.
When Joannis heard this, he also said, "Okay." Let's test it out. ”
After the two finished speaking, they came to the laboratory with the developed titanium warhead.
Their device is similar to the test device developed by Zhao Zhongyao.
It's just that their test setup is a bit more complicated. After all, he is an old military industrialist, and he has some experience in developing some equipment than Zhao Zhongyao.
In particular, he has more experience than Zhao Zhongyao in the development of these test equipment.
The test device made by Zhao Zhongyao is just a very powerful motor and a large ring.
But the ring device developed by Jonis not only has a large motor, but also an outer protective cover. After all, this is also a dangerous experiment!
If a protective cover is not installed on the outside, it will naturally be easy for the warhead to fly out of the ring when it is rotating rapidly.
If the warhead spun rapidly on the ring and suddenly flew out, it would be faster than a bullet! At such a speed, if it touched a person, it would be miserable, and the warhead could pass directly through the human body!
Jonnis has some experience. Therefore, when developing this device, another protective cover was used outside, so that it was much safer.
But. Zhao Zhongyao also quickly realized this problem, and he would soon install a protective cover on his device.
Now let's not talk about Zhao Zhongyao, but then Jonnis and his student Wesley, together with him, developed a titanium warhead. Then another test was conducted.
This time, Jonis was really satisfied.
Because this titanium warhead is really able to withstand high temperatures of several thousand degrees. It didn't melt. It's really weird, too.
Theoretically, the melting point of tungsten is higher than that of titanium. But in practical applications, titanium has more high-temperature resistance than tungsten!
"Wesley, you're really not simple! It seems that you can become a teacher! I didn't expect that this problem would be solved by you!"
Jonnis saw that the problem he couldn't solve before was solved by his own students, he felt very faceless, but at the same time he felt very faceless, after all, Wesley was his student! No matter how good Wesley was, was he a good teacher!
"Teacher, don't praise me, I just have this idea, and I don't know if I can succeed!
Wesley didn't expect that his idea would be successful!
Actually, this time they were able to succeed in the experiment because there was a little problem with their device just now, so the speed of the rapidly spinning ring just now was not as fast as before.
It's just that this kind of round thing in the state of high-speed rotation, even if it is a little slower, is not visible to the naked eye.
This is because just now, when Jonnis and Wesley were doing the test, the voltage of this motor was slightly lower, so that the working efficiency of this motor would naturally be lower.
But all of this didn't even get Jonis and Wesley to notice!
The two of them actually thought that they had succeeded in their experiment!
Actually, think about it, since the melting point of tungsten is much higher than that of titanium, how can titanium be more resistant to high temperatures than tungsten? Is this unscientific? It's just that both Jonnis and Wesley only paid attention to the test results and did not think about it further.
"Well, that's great, we've solved this problem, then we can work on ballistic missiles. ”
As soon as Joannis saw that he had solved the problem of the warhead, he wanted to start developing the missile.
"Okay, let's start developing missiles right away. Wesley listened, and was naturally very happy.
One of the most important problems of ballistic missiles is the high temperature resistance of warheads, and now Jonnis and Wesley feel that they have solved it. So the development of missiles began!
Soon, they developed a test bomb.
This is a small test bomb, only three meters long and twenty centimeters in diameter. The warhead is fifty centimeters long.
"Teacher, this time, we will definitely be able to succeed at one time. ”
Wesley looked at the missiles they had developed, and he was still very confident!
"Yes! We will definitely succeed this time, and when the time comes, we will be able to develop a real ballistic missile. Then, you can continue to declare war on China. I still don't believe that our ballistic missile can't beat any bullshit cruise missile developed by Zhao Zhongyao. ”
Jonnis looked at the small test missile in front of him, and he was dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Festival again! He thought that he would use the ballistic missile he developed to compete with the cruise missile developed by Zhao Zhongyao!
"Teacher, I believe that the ballistic missile we developed this time will definitely be able to defeat the cruise missile developed by Zhao Zhongyao. ”
Wesley looked at the test missile in front of him, and he was also very confident!
"Okay, let's start the launch test right away, the weather is really good today. Joannis saw that the weather was fine outside, and he urged Wesley to begin the test launch of the missile.
"Okay, I'll immediately ask someone to transport the test missile to the launch site. ”
After Wesley finished speaking, he called a few fighters and transported the test missile to a nearby launch site.
When everything was ready, Jonis personally pressed the launch button.
Suddenly, the test missile took off into the air and flew vertically into the air.
"Haha, that's great, everything went well!" Jonnis and Wesley laughed happily as they saw that the launch was going well.
In this way, after a while, after flying to a certain altitude, the test missile began to dive downward. It dives downwards at almost a vertical angle! This is also the difference between ballistic missiles and ordinary missiles.
The reason why a ballistic missile is more powerful than an ordinary missile is that when it attacks a target, it dives towards the target like a fighter plane.
In this way, the speed of the ballistic missile will be very high, which can reach more than a dozen times the speed of sound.
Under such a high-speed attack, no missile weapon can intercept it.
Now the test missile developed by Jonnis and Wesley swooped down from high altitude and flew towards a target in the sea.
However, the missile had only just dived more than 100 meters when a burst of flames came out of the warhead of the test ballistic missile. Then the whole test bomb began to tumble. Finally, it exploded with a 'boom' in the air dozens of meters above the sea surface. The entire test bomb disintegrated into pieces.
"Ah, how so, what's going on!" Jonis cried out in shock as soon as he saw the situation.
"Yes, teacher, what the hell is going on! How could the missile suddenly catch fire and roll in the air!" Wesley looked at some missile fragments in the air, and he was also very puzzled! )
