Chapter 603 [A Soul-Piercing Large-caliber Electromagnetic Cannon, Shocking!] 】
With a diameter of about five meters and a diameter of 600 mm, a barrel of 300 millimeters in diameter, and a black hole larger than a human head, the people waiting on the deck to witness the miracle could not help but feel a chill on their backs.
A piece of metal larger than a human head flies at a speed of more than 22,000 meters per second, and if you are hit on the body......
Not to mention people, it is estimated that elephants are all minced meat!
And after witnessing such a terrifying barrel, Xing Feng and his four assistant secretaries, as well as the former members of the Delta Squad of "Youlong No. 1", who also saw the electromagnetic cannon for the first time, a terrifying weapon that can only appear in science fiction.
Curiosity, amazement, anticipation, all kinds of emotions jump into my heart, can't wait!
When the high-speed high-magnification camera, speedometer and other test equipment were set up in place, Gao Yun, who was sitting in the command center, locked his eyes on the fire control screen, and ordered loudly: "Charge and prepare, lock the target!" ”
"Hum—"
As Gao Yun's order was given, Xing Feng and the others, who were standing on the deck ten meters away from the electromagnetic cannon and the right rear, all heard a powerful pulse of electricity that could be heard clearly, and even their bodies were affected with goosebumps.
Followed by!
"Sneer......"
Driven by the electric energy transmission device, the seemingly bulky "Lightning Bird" large-caliber electromagnetic turret, with a flexible and light rotating turret, aimed the thick and long barrel at the target ship 20 nautical miles away.
"Charge complete, target locked." The controller of the fire control system, who reports to the command center.
"Fire!"
"Bang~咻——"
Gao Yun gave an order, and in the eyes of everyone on the deck, there was no explosion of gunpowder, but it broke out with a violent loud noise, like the earth-shattering thunderclouds rolling away.
This is a normal "sonic boom" that occurs after breaking the sound barrier!
As for what everyone could see, all they could see was the blue arc that flashed through the muzzle of the gun, and the splash that exploded forty or fifty meters high 20 nautical miles away before they could react.
And all the body feels is the waves of air rushing in the face and the buzzing in the ears!
When the water splashed down 20 nautical miles away in the high-powered telescope, the four-meter-long target ship that had been parked there disappeared, along with the steel plates on it.
Nothing, nothing left!
Only the violently fluctuating waves on the surface of the sea, cascading in all directions, announced that something magical had indeed happened in this place more than a second before it was announced.
"This speed, this power is too ......",
As a battle-hardened former Delta Counter-Strike, Hute's cranial nerves are already hard enough, but seeing such terrifying power, he can't use his brain to recall what happened just now.
The sonic boom that shook the sky was still clearly heard in my ears, and the target twenty nautical miles away was completely wiped out.
It's so fast, it's unbelievable!
"Let's go to the command center to watch the video replay."
I deliberately ran to the deck to see the first scene, but I didn't see anything except a buzzing sound in my ears, what is going on?
Xingfeng said that it was nonsense!
Under the rapid pace of Xingfeng's leadership, a group of people rushed into the command center with hulala, and through Gao Yun's control, a special high-magnification high-speed camera was set up, which was slowed down by more than 40,000 times the 1 million frames per second.
The electromagnetic gun, which had an initial velocity of more than 22,000 meters, finally appeared in front of everyone at a speed of about 0.5 meters per second.
Whew-
First, a blue arc appeared in the muzzle of the cannon, followed by a meter-long electromagnetic cannon wrapped in blue electricity and coated with black heat-resistant materials.
At the same time, a white fog-like sound barrier appeared in front of the tip of the shell, as if trying to stop the flight of the shell.
Pity......
Wow~
The thick sound barrier in the shape of a white umbrella was easily broken by the electromagnetic cannon, turning into a wave of air and sweeping in all directions.
After the electromagnetic projectile flew 2,000 meters, the exterior of the heat-resistant material and air friction began to turn red, and finally when it was about to hit the target ship, it had become as red as a soldering iron.
Whew, a black ribbon of smoke burned!
And the speed was slowed down to 40,000 times again, and the electromagnetic cannonball, which burned red and burned black smoke, was wrapped in a layer of clearly visible high-pressure air waves, and crashed into the composite steel plate cube on the target ship.
The outer layer of heat-resistant material first shattered into powder, and the shock wave visible to the naked eye began to violently oscillate, followed by the alloy steel body of the outer layer of the shell and the composite steel plate of the ship, and at the same time began to deform, twist and shatter.
After the electromagnetic cannon shell shattered, the armor-piercing tungsten core inside appeared, without even the slightest pause, like chopsticks poking tofu, it easily penetrated the entire cubic thick composite steel plate, and disappeared into the endless sea water.
The alloy steel and composite steel plates of the shell shell shattered into countless fragments in the blink of an eye under the kinetic energy belt that erupted at an ultra-high speed of more than 20,000 meters.
Woooo
Tens of thousands, densely packed with countless steel body fragments with powerful kinetic energy, like flying sand and stones blown by a level 15 wind, suddenly exploded in all directions.
The target ship made of steel was torn to pieces in an instant under such a dense and high-energy shrapnel attack, and then under the impact of the collision, it was driven by the high-pressure air visible to the naked eye.
All defected en masse and became "accomplices" of electromagnetic shells!
Some of them flew into the boundless sea and air at high speed, and all the rest turned into small cannonballs, and the high-pressure air formed by the electromagnetic cannon was heavily smashed into the seawater.
Boom –
The sky-high water column soared, dozens of meters above it.
When all the sea water fell down and turned into rolling waves that swept in all directions, the original location of the target ship, except for the white flowers and rolling seawater, there was no trace of the existence of the target ship.
Shock!
It's amazing!
Indescribable shock!
This is the first time that Xing Feng and others have watched the launch of the electromagnetic cannon, as well as Gao Yun and others have seen it many times, but every time they watch it, they have the same intuitive feeling.
Compared with the shock wave killing of explosives such as gunpowder, today's artillery missiles and other weapons rely only on their own to do their work, plus kinetic energy merger.
Purely relying on the terrifying kinetic energy of the electromagnetic cannon, in addition to the powerful kinetic energy brought by its own high-speed flight, it can produce terrifying lethality to the target, and even rely on the high-pressure air generated by high-speed flight, affecting the target has also become part of its amazing power.
I have to say, this lethality is simply outrageous!
It is no wonder that the United States, China, Russia and other major countries have spent a lot of money on the research and development of electromagnetic kinetic energy weapons in recent years, and even most of the world's top weapons experts are very sure that in the future battlefield, missiles and artillery shells driven by gunpowder will inevitably become the products of historical abandonment.
