It's not over yet......

Within a few days, a "video with the truth" post began circulating on the forums of the clubs of the Union Army: two "human sticks" of the latest RX-72 of the Federation were rudely thrown into storage.

As soon as the post came out, the top management of the federal fleet on the moon was all "surprised......

Although the officers of the Federation don't like the MS that can overturn the giant ship, the MS is after all "an expensive toy purchased at a great price", and they throw it away themselves, but what is the matter with Jean's group of separatists being captured?

In the end, a certain big guy slapped the board: "Check! Check it out! ”

The Bucher consortium was out of luck: a number of military procurement programs were excluded from the list of suppliers.

Even the Bucher Consortium's "friends" in the Union Army have drawn a line with the Bucher Consortium: We turn a blind eye to your two-headed bets, and that doesn't mean you can tacitly eat and crawl out.

The Bucher consortium's business plummeted, and its business contracted across the board, leaving a vacancy that was eaten up by several other predators......

In order to avoid being liquidated at the time, the Anaheim company, which is working hard behind the scenes, adheres to the principle of "don't shoot a gun, quietly enter the village", but only erodes a part of the business that looks inconspicuous but affects the future layout.

Originally, Scharnhorst Bucher also suspected that the Anaheim Company had taken advantage of the opportunity to beat the club, but after checking with the Federation's "friends", he abandoned this idea: the technical level of Anaheim Defense was not enough to sit on the RX-72.

The Seagull, which is the most suspicious in this incident, was also washed away because of the appearance of Liuyun and his wife in the shopping supermarket that day......

Scharnhorst Bucher spent many years in confusion and depression, until one day the Bucher Consortium's intelligence officers discovered the two pilots who had been "captured by Jean" in Side3.

Although the people were found, the intelligence officers of the Buhe consortium found that the brains of the two pilots had been washed into blanks.

"Abandoned RX-72 captured" incident, the clue is broken again......

While the Bucher consortium was lamenting the illness of the two pilots, Liuyun's shipyard completed the recycling of the two RX-72s: in addition to the power, sighting, and control systems, the parts of the two planes were sorted and turned into materials for the Yingtai......

At the beginning of UC0076, Liuyun, who was in charge of the construction of the Yingtai in the dockyard, suddenly received a call from Kelly Edwards, asking to return to the company.

Liuyun immediately put down the work at hand and drove to the company. However, when Liuyun found out why Kelly Edwards called him over, his nose almost crooked......

In order to cope with the high-performance MS-05BZaku on the Jean side, the Federation solicited proposals from major arms suppliers to design a mobile weapon based on the SP-W03 robot for space operations.

Seeing the Federation's fairly formal draft for comments, Liuyun pouted: "Do you still use the design, just cut off the RX-72 below the chest!" ”

"Claude, your jokes aren't funny!" Kelly Edwards didn't seem to get Liuyun's laugh, just stared at Liuyun expressionlessly, "As a senior weapon designer, you should know very well that once you start a war with Jean, the Federation with insufficient production capacity will use a large number of this rudimentary and easy-to-manufacture mobile weapon to attack Jean's MS......"

The smile on Liuyun's face froze......

As a former interstellar mobile force special forces who grew up from cannon fodder, Liuyun knows what it is like to exchange quantity for quality: bewitching new recruits, driving mass-produced inferior weapons, and attacking the enemy's cutting-edge weapons; The newly enlisted recruits could do nothing but consume the enemy's ammunition and could only watch as the enemy's fire devoured them......

After being silent for a while, Liuyun sighed, reached out and picked up the draft on the table, and looked at it again: "Give me a day." ”

Seeing Liuyun leave the office, Kelly Edwards breathed a sigh of relief: "This plan should be regarded as the last conscience of my retired soldiers!" ”

For Liuyun, designing a military operation robot is not a difficult task, even if it is limited by cost.

Liuyun's design basically maintains the shape of the prototype SP-W03 robot for space operations: a spherical body, a recoilless cannon overhead, and two mechanical claws that can be used as dogfights.

Named the Iron Ball mobile weapon by Liuyun in advance, the armor of the main body is made of Anaheim's traditional strong stacked armor, which can reduce the cost in addition to bulletproof: with the size of the Iron Ball, the armor can use the scraps of the battleship's armor.

Directly in front of the sphere is a concave circular bulletproof glass viewing window that is integrated into the hatch, covered by an offset piece of armor. Directly below is a pair of hydraulic-electromagnetic, dual-drive fighting claws.

The main power of the iron ball comes from the rocket thrusters on the top, bottom, left, right and rear of the ball, and the fuel of the thrusters can also be used as a coolant for the stacked armor. In addition, various radar antennas and communication antennas are scattered around the sphere......

Open the hatch, and inside is a single cockpit large enough to accommodate five or six people. Compared to the spacious cockpit, the on-board hardware of the airframe is rudimentary, with three bulletproof glass panels lined up in parallel with a comprehensive display: one to display the parameters of the airframe, one to observe the surrounding environment, and the other to aim and assist in maneuvering the mechanical claws.

Compared with the rudimentary electronic system, the control device designed by Liuyun is more conscientious: on both sides of the seat are two mechanical arms that can be operated on the hand, which can transmit the action to the outside mechanical claw to achieve the synchronization of internal and external actions; The action of the mechanical claw is driven by two sets of signal systems, electronic limit and gyroscope, double redundancy mechanical and electronically controlled.

At the front of the two arms is the joystick, and in addition to the grip lever that controls the claw and the trigger that controls the weapon, there is also a trackball with a gyroscope mounted on the upper end: the left hand is used for the direction of the body, and the right hand is used for weapon adjustment.

At the foot of the seat is a pedal that controls the accelerator......

Of course, the Flowing Cloud design is not without its drawbacks: due to the thickness of the body's armor, the "Iron Ball" cannot be equipped with an escape system.

However, with the thickness of the "Iron Ball" stacked armor, it is enough to resist the attack of 125mm armor-piercing bullets, as for the energy weapon, the small beam trolls in the hands of the Federation RX-72, as long as it is not ten consecutive shots, the pilot of the "Iron Ball" still has the possibility of rescue.

After the design was completed, Liuyun didn't even sign his name, so he put the plan and the drawings into a storage disk and threw it to Kelly Edwards......

"Claude, as a designer of weapons, don't you want to introduce yourself to your work?"

Liuyun pursed his lips disdainfully: "It's a bit embarrassing to take this thing, it's too simple!" ”

Kelly Edwards's face went straight black......

"Oh, and," Kelly Edwards called out to Liuyun as he was about to leave, "are you also preparing to run?" ”

"Sort of!" Liuyun smiled slightly, "I haven't seen Kraven for some days, are their families also preparing for ......?"

Kelly Edwards nodded helplessly......

Although it took a little care when designing the iron ball, Liuyun didn't pay too much attention to it: after all, the iron ball is just chicken ribs for Anaheim Defense, which is mainly engaged in battleship armor and MS......
