Chapter 884: Aircraft Missile (2)

"What else should we do?" Seeing that Zhang Chi's expression was wrong, Basille asked. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Most of us don't need manpower to control the missiles until they reach the target area, do we?" Zhang Chi explained: "It only does one thing, that is, to keep the course stable and fly to the area where the target is located, and only when it is about to reach the target position, it needs human control to make it fly to the target more accurately!" ”

"Oh!" Hearing this, Basil couldn't help but suddenly realize: "You mean to ...... Combining the characteristics of the two missiles, the first half of the flight is carried out in the original unmanned way, and then operated by remote control?! That's right, that saves you a lot of unnecessary trouble! ”

It's a bit like how modern missiles work...... Modern missiles take inertial guidance when flying to the target area, and inertial guidance sounds very high, but in fact, the gyroscope and accelerator installed inside the missile calculate how far the missile has traveled according to the attitude and speed of the missile's flight, so as to determine whether it is about to reach the target area, and if it is about to arrive, turn on the missile's own radar to search for the designated target and destroy it.

The method Zhang Chi said is theoretically similar, but the accuracy is much worse than that of modern missiles.

"So now......" Basil couldn't help but look at the missile with some embarrassment: "Are we going to bring it back and ...... it again?"

"Of course not!" Zhang Chi interrupted Basil and said, "This is just one of the things you need to improve!" ”

"Yes, I wrote it down!" Basil nodded admiringly at Zhang Chi.

Basille was convinced by Zhang Chi, the idea of this remote-controlled missile came directly from Zhang Chi, not to mention, Basille originally thought that there was nothing wrong with this missile, but he didn't expect Zhang Chi to find out the problem before it was launched.

If it is a missile of the German kind, the launch is very simple, it is only necessary to lift it on the launch stand and prepare it for ignition...... You don't have to worry about anything after that, because it's uncontrollable, and it's up to luck to hit the target.

But the missile that Zhang Chi now owns, which Basille calls "Caesar," is a bit complicated, because it must ensure that all kinds of communication equipment are functioning properly and that the missile can be effectively controlled...... So there is a contradiction.

The Germans defined the "aircraft missile" as a cheap weapon that could be mass-produced, so they chose the impulse jet engine...... This type of engine is characterized by its simple construction and low cost, and it is actually like a small stove, where air is drawn through the suction hole and mixed with fuel, and then ignited with a spark plug to spray a flame towards the tail.

To put it simply, it is a cycle of inhaling, mixing, and ignition, and because it can be done 43 times per second, it looks like a continuous tail flame.

The disadvantage is that it is too rough and difficult to maintain, but this is not a problem for the "aircraft missile" that is used once and is also very simple in construction.

But it had an impact on the "Caesar" with the addition of electronic equipment, and the vibrations generated by the impulse jet engine often caused some unexpected failures of these fragile electronic devices, for which Basiler also made a matching shock absorber.

This is one of the reasons why the volume of the "Caesar" will be much larger than that of the original "Aircraft Missile".

"We've got to set a goal for it!" Basile said.

Zhang Chi didn't answer, just took out the map to find a location, and then pointed it out to Basil.

"Rome train station?" A hint of hesitation flashed across Basil's face.

"Yes, what's the problem?" Zhang Chi asked.

"General!" "Are there a lot of civilians there? ”

"Perhaps!" Zhang Chi replied: "But we are attacking the German transport warehouse...... It was a long way from the Allied lines, and there was a lot of German anti-aircraft fire, plus German fighters intercepted it, and several Allied bombardments against it ended in failure! ”

"General!" "I suggest ...... It's better that this goal is not so obvious, although I also hope that this missile will destroy something more valuable, but ...... You know, this is just a test, and we're going to do it and we're going to probably get the attention of the Germans, and even the British, the Americans! ”

It should be said that Basil's words also make sense, it is nothing to attract the attention of the Germans, they have missiles, and the Allies will copy them, this is normal. But if it was caught the attention of the British and Americans...... Then it seems that Zhang Chi will have a hard time maintaining his technical advantage in this area.

But Zhang Chi quickly dispelled Basille's doubts: "You know what? The Germans bombarded the Allies with missiles all the time...... So, it's not a big deal that a missile will appear in the sky! ”

"But it is possible that our missile will hit the warehouses of the Germans!"

"That's not a problem!" Zhang Chi replied: "You all know that the Germans' missiles are uncontrollable, and it is likely that one of the missiles malfunctioned and deviated from the course and accidentally hit the warehouse, what do you say?" ”

Hearing this, Basil couldn't help but nodded.

What Zhang Chi said does make sense, and even if he doubts it, what can he do? As soon as the missile explodes, there is "no proof of death", not to mention that the explosion point is still a warehouse, and if there is ammunition stored in it, I am afraid that even the fragments of the missile will not be found if it causes an explosion. At that time, who will be able to say where this missile came from?!

"General!" After a pause, Basil said, "I need you to choose a time to launch when there are the fewest civilians around the target!" ”

Zhang Chi nodded in agreement.

This is the main reason for Basil's opposition, and scientists may have a kind of plot, that is, they are unwilling to blow up innocent people with weapons of their own invention...... But in fact, this is unavoidable, even if it can be avoided now, what about the future? When the missile continues to develop from generation to generation and becomes a veritable precision strike weapon, it will become the protagonist of the battlefield, and then it is not known how many people will die under this weapon.

"Okay!" Zhang Chi looked at his watch and said, "Then we will choose two hours later, it will be lunchtime, Italians...... You know, they never miss a mealtime! ”

The people around him couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Thank you, General!" Basille shook his hand gratefully.

This made Zhang Chi a little embarrassed, and at the same time he felt a little strange in his heart, because he found that he was like a murderer, and killing a few fewer people became a commendable good deed.
