590. The Times Project
After Ista returned to the Tyranid Empire, he soon had a lot of national affairs waiting for him to deal with. But these ghosts, he looked at them and stared at them, and many of them were hastily signed.
However, there were still some important documents that attracted his attention: "What is this?" ”
"Isn't it written? - The 'Times' project. ”
In the imperial study of the Keha Palace, Ishtar leaned comfortably in the boss's chair, flipping through the papers. At the same time, he listened to the adjutant's explanation: "The Times Project, a project that has been considered during the federal period, wants to develop a super-large warship that attracts worldwide attention!" However, due to various technical reasons, the development of the region has stagnated. There is evidence that more than a decade ago, the Federation attacked Kemorian in order to obtain enough resources to build this super strategic weapon. ”
A general introduction, the specific detailed information, has been written in the document. Ishtar nodded, "But because of our rise, the dream of the Federation has come to naught." What a pity! This 'era' plan looks very good, and if such a super warship is completed, it may become a great weapon for our country! ”
The blueprint described in the Epochal Plan would be an unimaginably large supership, with the population of a planet even accommodating in its body, as well as a group of thousands of warships of massive size. It is equipped with a doomsday-level weapon with terrifying power that can destroy planets.
Such a blueprint is very well depicted, and if it can really be built, it will definitely become an existence beyond the "rigid system". Moreover, it is a ship that can be added to the battlefield at any time, and the potential combat power is simply unpredictable.
But the cost of the cost, as well as the technology required, is probably absolutely staggering. Let's not talk about anything else, if it's really a super ship, how much power does the thruster need? And how much energy is needed to meet such power, and how strong is the energy core support?
So it's no wonder why the Federation wants to build it, but it can't build it for a long time.
The adjutant also has ideas about these problems: "According to the deduction and calculation of the scientific research department, with our current technology, there should be no problem with the advancement, but the speed cannot be guaranteed, and there is still the problem of the jump, which may need to be dealt with with a little technology." The energy core is a hard injury, originally the Federation was planning to import the core of the Haiji civilization, but we can't help it. However, it is possible to consider the parallel use of multiple cores, which should be able to barely satisfy! ”
There are still bottlenecks in science and technology, especially for ships, the most critical energy core, without a surging energy system, the whole ship has no way to drive. Whether it's a power system, or a weapon system, or even a life-sustaining system, etc.
When Estar saw this document, he stared at it for a moment and thought for a long time: "The idea of such a super battleship is very good, although it is not necessarily very practical. But if you look at it as a force that can be projected into the battlefield at any time, the strategic capability is still considerable! I think it should be worth a try! ”
Seriously, Ishtar also understands that this special giant battleship does not correspond to the practicality on the battlefield. A bit similar to nuclear weapons once upon a time, the real meaning is more about strategic deterrence!
You have, everyone looks up to you, you don't, others want to beat you up without discussion.
Of course, as mentioned here, as a kind of warship, although it is quite large, it has the ability to project troops. In this case, it should not be reduced to an ornament.
Estar is a pragmatist, and naturally he is most interested in practical performance. If it can really be done, it can join the battlefield at any time, and it is a strategic-level existence, and the deterrent effect on the enemy should not need to be questioned.
However, the adjutant here also said another point: "The construction of such a battleship cannot be said to be completely impossible for us now. At least the R&D work and optimization of the design layout will be strengthened, and the performance parameters can still meet the basic needs within two years. But the problem is that our country is constantly fighting, and the financial and resource are concentrated on the battlefield, and there is no way to squeeze out more resources to put more resources on this costly project. ”
Well, that's a problem. To build such a huge and huge ship, the cost must be high and frightening to death. With the current national strength of the Tyranid Empire, it is not enough to support such a large project.
Esta thought for a moment: "Well, Kemorian's Mining Federation, a batch of resources will be delivered soon." Take out part of the hull to start construction first, and you also said that the core components will take time to improve performance, which can be slowed down for a while. When there are sufficient funds and resources, do you think this solution is feasible to load these core components? ”
"No problem!" The adjutant expressed his support: "To start building the hull of such a giant warship, it will not take two or three years, and it will indeed not be easy to take shape." ”
The adjutant is going to use the base's starport for production, a base starport that can be fully automated, but it will save a lot of time and effort. Twenty-four hours a day to build, if even the hull is not well outfitted, it will really be in vain in the name of base technology.
It just so happens that during this period of time, we can also do a good job in scientific and technological research to ensure that the operational requirements of this warship can be met when the core components are loaded.
Esta has a vision for this era, after all, as a man, especially a very ambitious man, galloping through the sea of stars to conquer all directions, this is his dream since childhood.
If it was still the previous **, he might only be able to think about it.
But as the power in his hands grew, his ambitions and desires also expanded. As he once said, he made three vows: "1. All major events in the world come from me!" 2. The handsome master invades the country, and the ruler holds the king and asks the guilt in front! 3. Win the world's best and wife! ”
Greater rights, greater ambitions.
This may be why Ishtar was later called the "tyrant". Just to satisfy his own ambitions and desires, as the emperor of the Tyranid Empire, he will of course lead the way in the direction of this country!
Speaking of this, he immediately returned one thing, which made him reveal the essence of a tyrant. It was not long ago that General Les captured several members of the Creation Family during a military operation.
Now, after a few rounds, we have come to Keha.
