Chapter 113: Unspeakable Special Training (2)
This kinetic weapon is not suitable for use in space at all due to the huge recoil it will produce and the need to constantly change the magazine, and it has long been replaced by energy-based laser weapons, and even most ground forces have ceased to use it.
Many of the stronger bounty hunters also don't look down on this kind of kinetic weapon, and only a few hunters with poor conditions will use it, and the number of production is also declining rapidly.
As the most expensive type of troops, the space pilot is one of the first arms to be equipped with energy weapons, and Mu Chen has been on the Giant Whale for so long, and he has never seen any of his comrades still use this old antique.
But old Charlie didn't care about these at all, and he didn't have any reason, and he demanded that Mu Chen must master them all, without giving Mu Chen a chance to explain, and even asked him to reach more than 90% of the hit rate of kinetic weapons before he could pass the test.
Mu Chen has already accepted his fate, this old guy doesn't eat oil and salt, and he is not reasonable at all, so he has to practice patiently.
Many people think that as long as one weapon is practiced well, other firearms can be bypassed, but in fact this is not the case.
Different firearms due to the different caliber and design, there are great differences, and even between different models of the same gun type there are not a lot of differences, the M4 carbine is not necessarily used when the M4A1 carbine is used to shoot accurately, if you want to master a large number of various types of firearms, it takes a lot of energy and time to practice repeatedly, there is no quick statement.
Old Charlie quietly watched Mu Chen practice shooting with a rifle, and nodded with satisfaction.
This training may seem boring and meaningless, but it is actually a test of patience and perseverance.
Mu Chen is a very talented warrior, and his learning ability is jaw-dropping, but such talented warriors usually have a fatal weakness, that is, lack of patience.
Instructor Charlie has seen a lot of talented people, but most of these people are still eliminated, and a large number of them have given up on their own, because repeated practice will make them bored and tired of training, and this emotion will seriously affect their strength, and they have not turned the skills they have mastered into their fighting instincts.
Take shooting as an example, a gifted warrior can skillfully use a firearm in a short period of time, but to maintain a high hit rate, it takes countless times of repeated training, and it is necessary to turn the weapon in his hand into a part of his body, no matter what the situation, he will use it when he picks up the weapon, and he can hit the enemy when he uses it, which is actually very difficult to do.
If you want to become an ace warrior, talent is indispensable, but more important is indomitable spirit and unwavering perseverance.
This kind of kinetic energy weapon has indeed been eliminated, and energy-based laser weapons have an absolute advantage in any aspect, but old Charlie has specially found a large number of kinetic energy firearms, in order to hone Mu Chen's perseverance and patience.
As a space pilot, in fact, most of the time will not use this kind of individual firearm, because when he uses it, he is actually at an absolute disadvantage, which means that the fighter controlled by the pilot is no longer usable, in this case, in space combat, individual weapons actually do not have much effect.
As Mu Chen said, firearms may be of great significance to soldiers on the ground, but in the eyes of space pilots, they are actually just self-defense weapons used to deal with special situations that occur in the fighter.
As for melee weapons, they are almost decorations, with the advancement of science and technology, cold weapons have long been useless in the space battlefield, and there is no Jedi Knight in this world who can be invincible with a laser sword.
Using melee weapons against advanced fighters and heavy mechs is no different from using a mantis arm as a car and a mayfly shaking a tree.
Mu Chen's shooting level is rapidly improving, and the hit rate has increased from less than 50 percent at the beginning to nearly 80 percent now, this progress is visible to the naked eye, and even Old Charlie secretly admires Mu Chen's learning talent.
However, if you want to meet the instructor's requirements, the difficulty is still too high, and at the end of this round of shooting, Mu Chen glanced at the data in his brain, and only 83 of the 100 moving targets were hit, which was 1 more than the previous round.
This kind of random moving target is too difficult to hit, not to mention the fast moving speed, the place where it appears is still very tricky, there is no law at all, Mu Chen concentrated on it, and still missed 10 targets.
If you want to improve your performance, it is obviously not something that can be done in a short time, and this is only the first firearm in Mu Chen's training place, and there are still many firearms waiting for him later.
Kinetic weapons will produce a huge recoil force when shooting, and it is much more realistic than the feeling simulated in the learning chamber, Mu Chen tried 3 rounds of shooting, firing a total of nearly 500 bullets, and he already felt that his arm could not be raised, and the position of the butt was extremely sore.
Moving his shoulders and adjusting his breathing slightly, Mu Chen changed his ammunition and started a new round of shooting training.
A projection target quickly flashed in the shooting range, Mu Chen pulled the trigger, hit accurately, and didn't have time to make any adjustments, the next target appeared on the right side, because the speed was too fast, Mu Chen shot twice before hitting it, but the target on the left was missed......
At the end of this round of training, the statistics of the light brain were not as good as the previous round, and only 78 of the 100 targets were hit, with a hit rate of less than 75 percent.
"Damn, it's impossible to do this, there is no sound when the target appears, and I don't have long eyes behind my back, how can I guarantee that all the targets can be hit?" Mu Chen said depressedly, the difficulty of such a training task simply exceeded the limits of human beings, and he didn't believe that anyone could do it at all.
"Oh? Is this discouraged? Instructor Charlie, who had been lying on the sofa and drinking with Erlang's legs crossed, said with a smile.
"It's not that I'm discouraged, this task is too perverted, I don't believe anyone can do it."
The difficulty of this kind of training task has surpassed the kind of hell mission that Mu Chen experienced on the giant whale, although Joseph and the mission they made were perverted, they could at least use the radar system on the Blackfish fighter to judge the position of the enemy plane in advance, and theoretically it could be passed perfectly, and the shooting mission of old Charlie was already challenging the limits of human beings, and the random targets were fast, and they suddenly appeared from behind from time to time, tried a few rounds, and each time there were almost 10 targets that Mu Chen did not find at all.
"Okay, you rest for a while, and I'll show you......" said old Charlie as he patted his ass and stood up, casually threw the flask in his hand on the sofa, and burped.
