Volume II Beginnings 397 The Problem of Missiles II
Volume II begins with 397 missiles on question II
"Well, just two ......"
I looked at him a little puzzled, and while this statistic is indeed shocking, you don't need to shout so loudly; Look, the crowd of onlookers around us is looking at us with strange eyes......
Of course, the meaning in my eyes was not correctly understood by Dole, and in his eyes, my eyes at this time were just a very calm, very calm, or very calm meaning; But when he heard my affirmative repetition, he immediately reacted, and quickly shut his mouth, but there was a thick look of shock that could not be stopped between his expressions; In fact, Milia Arya on his side is now the same as him, but before she could open her mouth to exclaim, her little hand had unconsciously covered Sakura's lips, causing the voice to not come out, well, the appearance of covering her mouth is very cute.

As for Lux, C.C., and Artoria, although they were also shocked by the data I reported, they didn't have too many gaffes, but they were a little stunned and came back to their senses; After pondering for a moment what I had just said, Lux's expression became a little subtle, and I only heard her whisper in my ear, "This is the data that the Jiuer family reported to Kiki?" ”
Because the Klein family and the Jiuer family have formed an alliance, the two sides are mutually incompatible with each other in terms of intelligence on some war weapons; For example, no one knows about MS yet, in fact, people who have an alliance with my Klein family, such as Isalia, Shiho, Pakrit, Yuli, Tad and so on, all know about the data of these missiles, and the ones who are more concerned about it are me, Isaria, Shiho, Paklit, Yuri and others.
But then again, in order to test its practicality, the Jiuer family can be said to have invested a lot of money, and even purchased a Nikosius-class battleship for testing with some secret relationships; Considering the price of the Nikosius-class battleships, even a wealthy person like me thinks the cost of this test is too expensive......
"Well, that's right...... After the tests of the Nikosius-class battleships, the data reported to me by the Joor family also included the actual tests of the cruisers; Among them, two Burning Mosa Heavy Crossbow III missiles are needed to destroy a cruiser, and ten are required for battleships; Of course, this test data is not stable, after all, even the Jiuer family does not have so much money to fully test the stability performance of the Burning Mosa Heavy Crossbow Missile Launcher. ”
My soft-spoken answer made Lux look understanding, in fact, Lux couldn't help but feel a certain sympathy for Shiho just thinking about the price of a Nikosius-class battleship, because to be honest, the price of Nikosius-class battleships is really expensive......
"Can a missile made at a cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars destroy a Nimorelins-class cruiser with a sales price of 14.6 billion?" Miriel Arya said at this moment suddenly; And after hearing Miriaria's words, I naturally nodded undeniably, yes, although on the surface it only takes hundreds of thousands of yuan to destroy a Nemolins-class cruiser, but in fact, it is an unimaginable and incredible thing.
"Although it is said that it only takes a few missiles to destroy the Nemollins-class cruiser, the premise is still 'hit'."
I nodded in agreement with Miriaria's question, and then explained it like this, especially in the word hit; Although I said that the close-range fire power of a cruiser is not very strong, in fact, with that level of firepower, it is very easy to intercept less than ten missiles, not to mention the use of inducing missiles to detonate enemy missiles. So in reality, the number of missiles that need to be paid to destroy a cruiser will definitely be in the tens or even hundreds, not a few on the surface.
Miria Arya naturally understood what I meant, so after receiving my reminder, a smile appeared on her innocent and lovely little face, and then after nodding to me, she asked again: "According to what Qi just said, the reason why countries are not installing more missile launchers is actually because the cost of missiles is too high if they want to achieve the desired results, right?" After all, the amount of money required for a Thunder Heavy missile is between five and six figures. ”
"Huh...... To be more precise, the manufacturing cost of a Thunder heavy missile is tens of thousands of world coins, and the cost of selling it is even more expensive, about 300,000 world coins; And if you want the Thunder heavy missile to get the imaginary result, then it is not just about five heavy missiles on the surface, but more, maybe dozens, or even hundreds...... Relatively speaking, if you use the main gun to destroy the enemy, it will only cost a little energy...... It is precisely for this reason that missiles that are consumables but are too expensive have gradually withdrawn from the stage, so now they are ...... The Age of Giant Cannons! ”
A calm smile appeared on her handsome face, and her tone still seemed unhurried to explain this to Miriaria, and when I saw the look on her face, I knew that she had understood what I meant; As I just said, although the main gun may not be able to destroy an enemy ship with one or two shots, and it itself has a certain maintenance cost, which is almost negligible compared to the amount of money required to use the missile...... Well, I'm talking about beam weapons, which basically don't need to pay any extra money, aside from providing plenty of energy and some amount of maintenance, because they don't need ammo.
And if it's a linear gun, cough, cough, as a physical gun, it still needs ammunition, so compared to the low maintenance cost of beam weapons, the cost and logistics of a physical gun of this type of linear gun are more expensive...... Of course, compared to missiles, it can be considered low, after all, the amount of money required to build a missile is really not much.
(Well, it seems that the maintenance cost of a high-precision beam weapon should be not low...... However, the logistical cost of a beam weapon that does not require ammunition should be lower than that of a physical weapon...... Right? )
