Chapter 875 - Electromagnetic Guns on Various Vehicles
The air conveyor belt located in the last fortress was fast, and in a moment of dazzle, everyone stepped down from the conveyor belt in front of a gate.
After passing through a corridor, I took the elevator to the city-like streets inside the fortress, and I saw neat lawns and green belts, streets made of steel, neat buildings on both sides, the ultraviolet rays of the sun simulated above and the flow of the wind, and the top structure simulated the sky outside, and I didn't know that I thought I was staying in an ordinary city.
"In order to pursue the real external environment as much as possible, there is also a sprinkler system in the sky to simulate rainfall, and the street buildings here are connected to the same structure as the alloy floor, in order to strengthen the interior of the space."
Walking on the empty street, Li Lan was also surprised in his heart, he hadn't been here for half a year, and he didn't expect that he would have what he is now. At the beginning, he jokingly said that this place could become a city in the future, but he did not officially give an order, but the people here consciously completed Li Lan's joke at the beginning, after all, it is naturally more boring to stay underground every day, but fortunately, they do not lack the power to create.
The qiē in front of him looked so familiar and very unfamiliar. The Sulud Mountains are 40 kilometers wide at their widest point, more than 200 kilometers long, and have a total area of more than 8,000 square kilometers.
Now, Li Lan and the others are staying inside the mountain, not far in front of them, there is a huge slope, and under that slope is the two-lane tunnel of the railway and highway connecting Bagua City and Erigabo, and Li Lan and they are now inside the mountain, more than 2,000 meters away from the top of the mountain.
There was no one to be seen on the street in front of me. But standing here is like standing on a very ordinary city street, if you don't see the towering iron walls on both sides. It's like being on the streets of an ordinary city.
"Very good." Shocked in his heart, Li Lan made no secret of his joy.
As soon as his voice fell. There were several electric cars on the side street, and everyone got on the buses one by one, and continued to move on, and in less than five minutes, they came to an open place.
"Why is this guy here?" Before he got out of the car, Ling Liang saw a two-hundred-meter-long warship in the distance of the site, squared on a support on the ground.
"General Ling, this is the key test object of our real room. The dreadnought has been lying here for five years. ”
"And what do you want to show us today?" Ling Liang shrugged and didn't continue to dwell on why a powerful dreadnought was left here to rust.
The old man in charge of the entire research project of the "Electromagnetic Cannon ......", when he heard that Ling Liang didn't know what to see, he seemed to have found a better person to talk to for a while, and specially lengthened the sound of the three words of the electromagnetic cannon, and when he saw the impatience on Ling Liang's face, he continued: "Install the electromagnetic cannon on various vehicles." ”
"Like the electrothermochemical cannon on the Apocalypse IV tank and the Pacifier self-propelled gun?" Ling Liang frowned, as if his interest had lost greatly for a while.
The old man in a white coat shook his head quickly and said, "The electrothermochemical cannon was a mature product a few years ago, how can it be tested by the commander and General Ling now." I'm talking about railguns. ”
Speaking of this, the old man seemed to be worried that Ling Liang would not understand, and further explained: "What I mean by this is to reduce those railguns, which are similar to giant cannons, to vehicles with active equipment. ”
I just heard the old man's explanation. Ling Liang didn't seem completely satisfied, and pointed to an obviously modified Getter cannon in the distance and said, "What is this?" ”
"This is the Getter cannon, and we've changed the weapon on it to a railgun." The old man looked at Ling Liang's fingers. His gaze softened, as if he were seeing his own children. On his lips, he looked like he couldn't stop: "General Ling, don't underestimate the Gaita cannon that has been replaced with an electromagnetic cannon, both barrels can reach a rate of fire of five hundred rounds per minute. Although the rate of fire of the previous Getter cannon is twelve times less, the firing range can reach thirty kilometers, the reaction speed is also 25% faster than the normal Getter cannon, and the hit rate is increased by 30%, which is definitely a great upgrade, the phalanx is a child in front of it, and we relied on the idea ...... at the beginning"
"Stop." Ling Liang mercilessly stopped the old man's chatter, and glanced at the area, all of which were weapons she was very familiar with, including anti-aircraft guns, sentry guns, field artillery, automatic artillery, armored vehicles, and tanks......
"These are now switched to electromagnetic cannons?" Ling Liang asked.
Li Lan, who had been quietly looking at the test site in front of him, said: "That's right, these things have undergone fundamental changes, and the weapon system has also become an electromagnetic cannon, and now the final technical verification is underway. ”
"How's it going?" Ling Liang asked.
As soon as Ling Liang heard the effect, the old man immediately said to the other scientists beside him, "The experiment will start immediately. ”
Li Lan shrugged helplessly at Ling Liang and said, "Take a look! Think of it as an appetizer before a meal. ”
Under the busyness of the scientists, a large number of targets soon appeared on the test site, the targets had fixed cement structure bunkers, and there were also iron plates of different thicknesses, replaced with various weapons of electromagnetic guns, and performed in turns, and the results soon came out, and a report of the test results appeared in the hands of Ling Liang and Li Lan.
"So-so!" Ling Liang's reaction was very calm, which made Li Lan on the side quite surprised, when he saw these reports, he was surprised.
Ling Liang's attitude made the surrounding scientists not calm, they worked hard to achieve talents, and they were praised by Li Lan, but in exchange for Ling Liang's so-so, it was not even affirmative.
However, the scientists, who were not at all good at expressing themselves, with inner dissatisfaction, immediately began the next experiment.
The creaking of the tracks was heard, and the tall future tank X1 came to the test range, and in the distance a one-meter-square composite armor was erected, and a photo of the Abrams main battle tank was pasted on the attached armor.
"The defense of this armor is at the same level as the American M1A2 main battle tank, and the weapon system on the future tank X1 uses a mature version of the electrothermochemical gun."
Under the introduction, the future tank X1 without personnel control stepped forward straight, the arm-like barrel aimed at the target in the distance, the two guns were fired at the same time, and the target in the distance was instantly covered by the dust and smoke of the explosion, but the future tank X1 did not stop the shelling, and the double-arm gun barrel actually played the efficiency of rapid-fire artillery, and it was bombarded.
Twenty seconds later, after a full twenty shells were fired, the smoke on the distant target dissipated, and the target, which had the same defensive power as the M1A2 tank, was already riddled with holes, and if it was really a tank, it would not be much better.
"It's okay, it's a bit of a thing, is there anything else?" Ling Liang did not disobey his intentions, he knew very well the effect of the original version of the future tank X1, the rate of fire was about the same, but the penetration was much worse, and it was basically impossible to break through the armor of the M1A2, but the future tank X1 in front of him could penetrate the target in dense firepower, and this improvement could not be denied.
Ling Liang's reaction made Ling Liang smile slightly, and the old man on the side seemed to be unable to lift it in one breath, his face was flushed, he pointed to the huge dreadnought in the distance, and said with great pride: "Don't underestimate our achievements, it will cause a revolution in naval equipment." ”
"Really? Can it replace the role of an aircraft carrier? Ling Liang asked.
The old man shook his head very directly and said: "Before the space carrier comes out, the role of the aircraft carrier cannot be replaced, because there are no ground and sea weapons on the same earth, and it has the strike distance of carrier-based aircraft. ”
The old man was naturally very unhappy with Ling Liang's questioning, and continued excitedly: "It turns out that the guns on the useless ship are insulting such a perfect warship, and now we have successfully loaded the railguns on it, which will bring complete revolutionary progress to combat ships. ”
"What is this, the Americans have long installed railguns on destroyers, there is no novelty at all." I don't know why, some of the words that came out of Ling Liang's mouth were so annoying, at least many scientists around him were dissatisfied.
Li Lan on the side shook his head slightly, Ling Liang's behavior made him feel very happy, these scientists had nothing to do, and they were all proud of their research results. He understood Ling Liang's behavior very well, if it weren't for his identity there, his appearance was probably similar to Ling Liang.
However, the research results in front of him are really good, the electrothermochemical cannon and the railgun technology in the electromagnetic gun are now mature, and today he is here to accept, how to apply these two mature technologies to the battlefield.
Among them, he liked dreadnoughts the most, and the reason why he was willing to put a high-cost dreadnought here for them to study was because he attached great importance to these research projects.
"If it weren't for the fact that this place was not suitable for verifying the effectiveness of the railgun, I would definitely convince General Ling Liang." The old man who wanted to organize a verbal counterattack thought about it for a long time but didn't know how to fight back, so he could only put down a sentence casually.
"However, these things are really good, our active weapons and NATO countries presumably, do not have an advantage, at most they are evenly matched, we are developing, others are also developing, today's results are worthy of recognition, I thank you on behalf of the military for your efforts." Ling Liang reversed his previous attitude and thanked the scientist very respectfully.
In fact, these weapons in front of her had already conquered her, and the reason why she looked like she didn't care was just because she didn't want to see these scientists look arrogant. The reason is very simple, the Americans have also made good breakthroughs in these weapons in recent years, electrothermochemical guns have long been equipped in the US military, and Zumwalt has also begun to install railguns.
