Chapter 268: Losing tens of millions of dollars to the U.S. military

The attack range of 1500 meters is actually not very good, and the attack range of a sniper rifle can reach this level. Of course, at a distance of 1500 meters, even the best sniper cannot guarantee a hit.

Compared with the defensive device whose main function is to defend against missiles, the distance of 1500 meters is actually not excellent, because if there is an interception error, then for the speed of the missile, 1500 meters is actually a matter of one second.

And if the other side uses a missile carrying a nuclear warhead, it can already explode directly at a distance of 1,500 meters, and even if the yield is low, the killing radius of the nuclear warhead is more than 1,500 meters.

After all, in addition to nuclear explosions, the lethality of nuclear radiation can also make all living beings helpless.

But with only 1500 meters of attack range, is the 'guard' a waste?

Of course not, otherwise, the Pentagon's delegation would not have applauded collectively after the 'Guardian' successfully intercepted four missiles.

Weapons are man-made and used by humans, and as long as they are used in the right way, even the most trash weapons can be lethal.

"Mr. Wen Ming, I hope that no matter who wins or loses this bet, we can become the only users of 'Guardian'."

General Rhodes made a request to Wen Ming with a serious expression, he had already let his subordinates control three drones to act, and the goal of the three drones was to invade within 1,500 meters of the destroyer, or within the range of 'guarding'.

Although there is a gambling contract between the two, compared to the possible transaction amount, even if Wenming's three drones are not hit, it is not worth mentioning to lose his three 'guards'. Or that Wen Ming can shoot down all three drones, and his losses will not be too big.

The premise is that Wen Ming promised that the U.S. military was the only user of the 'guard'.

General Rhodes has thought of many ways to use 'guards', but of course it is not possible to simply fix 'guards' in military bases, or on armaments similar to destroyers.

The military strength of the US military is really strong, not to mention that it is ahead of the world in terms of drones. Not only do they have drones that can fly at high speeds and even launch missiles, but there are also unmanned reconnaissance aircraft that can be almost stationary in the air.

If the 'Guard' is installed on the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, then the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft is placed on the military base that needs to be guarded, or above the military equipment. Then, whether the opponent uses missiles to attack, or uses weapons such as fighters to attack, the 'guard' on the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft can provide very strong protection capabilities.

There is also a way to use it, that is, after discovering the opponent's ICBM, calculate the flight path of the ICBM, and then use the drone to fly to the opponent's flight path with the guardian to achieve the interception function.

It sounds like a hassle, and ICBMs fly very fast, which can be a huge advantage over intercepting with physical missiles such as the Patriot.

Modern missiles have anti-interception systems, but all current missile anti-interception systems are aimed at physical missiles, such as child-mother missiles that can give birth to sons in the air. Immediately after the interceptor missile is detected, the heat source that can attract fire is dispersed, and the interceptor missile is rendered useless.

Judging from the performance of 'Guardian' just now, its energy laser intercepts the captured target. Compared with missiles with anti-interception functions, the time spent using the anti-interception function, as well as the flight speed of the missile itself, can be described as the speed of light by the laser interception device 'guard', and the hit speed after determining the target can definitely be called unparalleled in the world.

No matter how fast the speed of the ICBM is, it is also calculated in Mach, but what about the speed of the laser?

Although these uses have yet to be verified, the U.S. military is confident that it can completely solve some of the technical difficulties. The launch of any new product requires a lot of events to optimize it.

But the U.S. military also knows very well in his heart, or General Rhodes knows very well in his heart, that the U.S. military has this technical strength, which means that there are some other countries in the world that also have such technical strength.

For example, China, Russia......

Wen Ming, the R&D and technology owner of the 'guardian', is himself a Chinese, although he has joined the American nationality, but just like some arguments in the current American society, who knows if Wen Ming is interested in China?

No matter how much you admire Wen Ming's achievements, even if there are now more Americans who regard Wen Ming as an idol, the US military must not be ambiguous when it comes to such things.

And Wen Ming was also stunned for a moment after hearing General Rhodes' question, he didn't think that General Rhodes, or the Pentagon, would raise such a question. What he didn't expect was that General Rhodes would ask such a question before the ability to 'protect' was fully demonstrated.

What's more, in Wen Ming's view, the first generation of 'guardians' is actually not strong, and the really powerful ones are the second generation of 'guardians'.

How did he know that, in General Rhodes's opinion, the development time of the second generation of guards needs to be calculated at least in years. This is not an exaggeration, science and technology are not a dinner party, saying that tomorrow will be able to tomorrow. Besides, many people say that they will invite you to dinner tomorrow, and they may not be able to invite you to dinner after a year.

"I can guarantee that the 'Guardian' product will only be sold to the U.S. military."

Wen Ming's righteous words replied, as if he had already regarded himself as a real American, but in his opinion, the guardian is actually not very good, if he really wants to help the Huaxia of this world, Wen Ming has a more powerful technology in his hand than 'guarding'.

When to say what kind of words, what kind of attitude to express, if he hesitates at such a time, even if Wen Ming has mastered Facebook, the US government will not save him any face.

Rod smiled, he didn't take Wen Ming's words seriously, no one didn't lie, even if Wen Ming swore to the sky, he wouldn't really believe it. But what he needs is Wen Ming's attitude, as long as Wen Ming shows this attitude, then if the U.S. military, or intelligence agencies such as the CIA, find out that Wen Ming has sold technology to Huaxia or other countries, they can directly ignore Facebook and attack Wen Ming.

"So, just look at how powerful your 'guard' is, please believe me, if it can really do it, we will make your arms company more profitable than your Tesla."

Not compared with Apple, because Apple's audience is too large, resulting in its revenue is also very high.

As he spoke, three technicians operating the drone reported at the same time that they had controlled the drone to within 2,000 meters of the destroyer.

With the flight speed of a drone, 500 meters is just a moment.

It was at this moment that the tablet in Wen Ming's hand sounded the alarm again, and this time the destroyer did not sound the alarm, because the three drones had friend or foe identification codes.

The moment the alarm sounded, Wen Ming looked out of the porthole, and the others in the command room gathered behind the three technicians, and through the screen in front of the three technicians, they saw the picture of the perspective of the drone.

The three technicians began to perform various tactical evasion actions when the drone had not yet entered the range of 1500 meters, and they were able to complete this operation in such a short period of time, which shows the strength of the three technicians and the technical level of the US military UAV.

But no matter how advanced it is, ahead of any other country, how can it be compared with the 'guard' that has joined the black technology?

The red light outside the porthole flashed again, because of the difference in instantaneous output power, this time the red light brightness was even more dazzling.

The next second, or even less than a second later, the three technicians operating the drone all let out an exclamation because the screen in front of them had lost its picture.

At the same time, the destroyer's radar observer reported with a shocked face: "Three of our drones are falling, and now...... has fallen into the sea. ”

General Rhodes laughed happily, and everyone in the Pentagon delegation laughed, and at this time no one cared about three drones. Except, of course, for those three technicians.

Teresa Roy also laughed, and he clapped while laughing, and then realized that the applause might be a little inappropriate at this time, because the Pentagon had just lost three drones. Although it is not the expensive armament of the Global Hawk, which costs tens of millions of dollars per unit, the combined cost of the three drones is more than 10 million US dollars.

Putting away her hand, Teresa Roy looked at Wen Ming, only to find that Wen Ming didn't have a happy expression, but a look of course.

Of course this is not right, after giving Wen Ming a few looks, he saw Wen Ming laughing.

General Rhodes said: "I have cost the U.S. military tens of millions of dollars, and I think you should give me enough concessions." ”

Wen Ming smiled: "It depends on how many 'guards' you need." ”
