The last assessment is tactical coordination, which is also the most important of all assessments.

On the way to send Chu Tianjiang to the training camp, in order not to affect Chu Tianjiang's participation in the assessment, Zhang Xiaogang did not mention the matter of talking to Luo Jinyong.

This time, Howard waited for ten special forces in the training camp for the first time. In the previous five assessments, Howard only appeared after the special forces arrived. The special forces who arrived one after another realized that this was the most critical assessment that would determine their status in the Doomsday Force.

After the personnel arrived, Howard first introduced the basic principles of assessment.

In the name of "tactical coordination", it is natural to group reference personnel. The 10 special forces will be divided into two five-person tactical teams by drawing lots. Unlike crossing obstacles, this time the grouping is more equitable. That is, the first and second place, third and fourth place, fifth and sixth place, seventh and eighth place, ninth and tenth place are drawn from two table tennis balls of different colors, and the same color is drawn to form a tactical group. In this way, the strength of the two tactical groups will be evenly matched.

Chu Tianjiang and Aldrich have the same number of points, and they are the leaders of the two tactical teams.

The draw also started by two people. Chu Tianjiang drew an orange table tennis ball, and Aldrich drew a white table tennis ball.

Next up are Halevy and Schultz. The result was extremely ideal for Chu Tianjiang, because Halevi drew the orange ping pong ball. Then Petronovich and Sullivan joined Chu Tianjiang's team. When the desert island Long Zhijian drew the orange ping pong ball, Chu Tianjiang and the other four special forces all tightened their brows.

A rat feces can stink a pot of porridge, and with the black sheep of the desert island Long Zhijian, the situation is not optimistic.

Something is wrong. Chu Tianjiang felt a little puzzled, because Halevy ranked third, the Peterovich faction was fifth, Sullivan was seventh, and Desert Island Long Zhijian was ninth. In addition to the white table tennis balls drawn by Aldrich in the first round of the draw, only one special forces soldier came forward to draw the lot in the next four times, and all the orange table tennis balls were drawn. Because the result was decided, the other special forces were not allowed to draw lots.

Could it be that there are only orange ping pong balls in the box, and no white ping pong balls?

Although he had doubts, Chu Tianjiang couldn't prove it. In addition, Aldrich did take out a white ping pong ball from the box, and there were only two ping pong balls in the box.

The probability of winning the orange ping pong ball four times in a row is only 1 in 16. Counting the first time, the probability of winning the same table tennis ball five times in a row is 1 in 32.

At the end of the grouping, Howard announced the points criteria.

Unlike the previous five rounds, this time the "all-takes-all" principle is adopted, and the basic points are doubled. That is, the five special forces in the winning group each get 200 basic points, and the five special forces in the losing group have zero basic points. What's more, there are also bonus and penalty points. That is, for each "killing" of an opposing special forces, one hundred bonus points will be awarded, and one hundred points will be deducted for "killing". In addition, saving an "injured" teammate will give you half of your teammate's points, and "mistakenly" teammate will get half of your points. In the event of a more serious situation, such as "killing" a teammate, not only will the team lose, but the special forces who "attack" the teammate will also be penalized for all points.

According to this points method, even Vincent, who is at the bottom of the points, has a chance to finish first overall.

After Howard introduced the points, the ten special forces began to pay attention to the assessment method. Because there was an accident in which Kojiro Nakamura died during the assessment, he definitely won't use a real gun. What's more, Diego Garcy is small and simply has no suitable assessment venue.

In actual combat, a five-person tactical team has an operating range of up to several tens of square kilometers.

If it is an infiltration combat operation, the combat area is as high as thousands of square kilometers, while the land area of Diego Garcia is only more than 20 square kilometers.

Besides, there are no suitable terrain conditions on the island.

"The assessment will be conducted indoors."

When Howard said this, the eyes of the ten special forces widened.

Was it a street fight in the city, or an operation to rescue hostages? Chu Tianjiang was very puzzled. Although these two combat methods are the strengths of special forces, and they are snipers' forte, they are definitely not a typical tactical environment, and the capabilities of special forces cannot be fully displayed.

"Now, all of you get on board!" Howard didn't explain.

There was no need to explain, because after ten minutes, the ten special forces knew what was going on.

The assessment location is in the scientific research center, but the scientific research center is not a battlefield, and ten special forces will complete this assessment in a virtual environment!

Each special soldier was assigned a room, and the equipment in the room was familiar to everyone.

This is the adaptive platform that Chu Tianjiang used when conducting basic tests in China before joining the Doomsday Force. The difference is that there is no projector in the room to generate a virtual scene, and the special forces are prepared with a helmet equipped with a holographic 3D virtual scene display.

The field of view of the head-mounted display is 140 degrees, and the high and low viewing angles are 30 degrees and 60 degrees, respectively, which is comparable to the basic field of view of a human. The full-scene resolution of up to 150 million pixels, as well as the condensed resolution of 50 million pixels, achieve the normal naked-eye visual power. With a built-in positioning device, the display is able to improve the resolution of the gaze area according to the changes in the pupils of the special forces. Twenty-four locators with high-precision laser gyroscopes as the core are installed on the outside of the helmet, which obtains the movement of the helmet and determines the display information.

To put it simply, put on the helmet, and the special forces will enter a completely virtual three-dimensional world.

In terms of hearing, there are eight built-in headphones inside the helmet, which are able to generate a stereo field according to the actual situation, and the accuracy of sound source localization exceeds the highest discrimination ability of the human ear.

Only, having a helmet is not enough.

Special forces also have to wear a special set of "combat uniforms". According to Howard, this suit uses some of the advanced techniques of the Doomsday Warrior system. The key is that there are 128 high-precision locators on each set of combat uniforms, which can accurately determine the position of various parts of the special forces' body in the virtual three-dimensional world. Using the inductive force weight controller, the combat suit can simulate various force situations such as running, impacting, jumping, climbing, falling, etc., and can even imitate being shot. In addition, the suit mimics the forces applied during combat. In other words, if the special forces encounter and fight in the virtual world, it will not be much different from the combat in reality.

At the very least, it's weapons.

Each special forces can choose the right weapon according to their preferences, only all weapons are left without ammunition, and instead of ammunition is a laser launcher.

When firing with a weapon, the laser beam is intercepted by a light sensor mounted on the wall, and then the trajectory of the "bullet" is calculated according to the environment in which the special forces are shooting, so as to determine whether the "bullet" hit the target and how much damage it caused.

In the interest of a fair period, the 10 Member States sent not only commissioners but also scientific advisers.

The results of the assessment are valid only if they are approved by all commissioners and scientific advisers. However, in order to overturn the results of the assessment, it is necessary to produce sufficient convincing evidence and obtain the support of more than half of the commissioners and scientific advisors in the monitoring team.

To support this assessment, all 10 member states shipped the simulation test system to Diego Garcia.

In addition, each of the 10 member states has provided a supercomputer with a speed of at least 100 trillion operations per second to support their respective simulation test systems, and the United States has provided an additional supercomputer with a speed of up to 10,000 operations per second to act as the central computer. Ten supercomputers are connected to a central computer through a fiber-optic network with a data transmission speed of 1 gigabit per second in both directions, forming a data processing system.

In Howard's words, the system has been tested more than a dozen times and is extremely reliable.

When the system is running at full speed, it needs to supply power to the two nuclear power plants in the research center at the same time, and all power-consuming equipment except for lighting must be switched off.

The main thing is that eleven supercomputers consume too much power.

In order to get the Special Forces used to the new way of being assessed, Howard gave everyone thirty minutes to warm up through a simulation program similar to a video game. Although he was not used to it at first, after adapting to it, Chu Tianjiang found that there was not much difference between fighting in a virtual environment and reality. Because the visual focus resolution can be adjusted, it is more convenient to use a sniper rifle.

The warm-up is over, and the assessment officially begins.

After a short period of darkness, Chu Tianjiang found that on a low-flying transport plane with Halevi and others, an unknown US flight attendant was signaling for them to parachute.

Is this guy a real person, or a dummy made up by a computer?

Chu Tianjiang didn't think much about it, and after greeting the four teammates, he jumped out of the cabin first.

Below, there is a densely vegetated forest.

The landing went well, all five special forces landed in the glade, not caught in the trees, and no one was injured during the landing.

Battlefield information appeared on the screen, and they parachuted into an island with a radius of more than twenty kilometers.

Judging by the common plants, it is a tropical island with abundant rainfall, tall trees everywhere, and a thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground.

Aldrich's group also landed on the island by parachuting, but the battlefield information was only the landing location of the other party.

The task is to seize the high ground in the center of the island and hold the high ground, which will be supported in half an hour. Unless all the enemies are killed, whoever holds the high ground for half an hour first will win. If you lose the high ground and regain it, the time will be recalculated. In a battle for the high ground, both sides can summon artillery support from the fleet, but each has only one chance.
