"Half a year ago, Mu Xing asked me for a trial production license for a full range of weapons, and I thought it was no problem......
Holding a photo in his hand, Professor Xu Zhengze defended a little weakly. As a result, his words caused a burst of laughter, but not ridicule - everyone in the room knew that it was actually authorized by the Star Federation Council, not General Xu's personal actions - in fact, since that hijacking, no one has been able to refuse Mu Xing's request.
But...... Well, who would have thought that her unsuccessful brother would suddenly change his ways and own a very large military factory! Apparently...... The current situation is that Mu Xingtong guΓ² her younger brother Lu Yuan has "trial production" of some strange things, and these things will set off a storm throughout the galaxy!
This is the meeting room of the dreadnought "Kilimanjaro". Present were three fleet commanders, Admiral Hackett of the Fifth Fleet, and Nittish of the Third Fleet. Admiral Singh, and Vice Admiral Young, the Sixth Fleet, which is being formed; As well as the vice president of the Naval Research Institute, Professor Xu Zhengze, Mu Xing's father-in-law, and the three most senior warship experts. Separate meetings were held on the battleship, with no records and no attendance via the guΓ² teleconferencing system, which meant that it was a top-secret meeting.
"Kilimanjaro" is the first ship of the Starlink Kilimanjaro class, and it is the latest dreadnought of Starlink. Prior to the Kilimanjaro class, Starlink already owned three dreadnoughts of the Everest-class group, namely the USS Everest, USS Elbrus, and USS Fuji.
Originally, after the Kilimanjaro. At least four dreadnoughts of the same class will start production at once! But now everyone knows that all those plans are wasted paper, even the newest Kilimanjaro-class dreadnought. Probably, the Sixth Fleet is reluctant to receive it. Vice Admiral Yang prefers to wait two years and then build his new fleet around the new dreadnought-class battleships designed by Muxing.
Until then......
"We don't need a new type of dreadnought for the time being, as it is, bring me twenty heavy cruisers to make do with it first." Lieutenant General Yang said shamelessly, which immediately attracted a lot of scolding! "Make do with your sister!" The voices are endless. Lieutenant General Keyang dug out his ears and pretended not to hear. At this time, the indisputable person is a fool!
Yes, now in front of these figures, who stand at the pinnacle of the Star Alliance Navy, is a copy of the latest heavy cruiser design. and some photos.
These are all from which genius girl, Mu Xing's hand. Mu Xing has been in contact with a lot of military equipment, and even on the Gagarin space station, there is a cruiser that she completely dismantled into parts and threw there. Battleships costing hundreds of millions of star dollars have become scrap. The bigwigs of the military don't blink an eye! In their opinion. That's the necessary cost of producing genius scientists.
However, they didn't expect to receive a return so soon - no one believed that Mu Xing could do it until she came up with this plan! Even though she had already taken it out, the Naval Research Institute still quarreled day and night for a week before this plan came to the current conference table.
Because during the whole quarrel, Mu Xing never came to explain, but they were constantly slapped in the face by the plan - because of the quarrel, many places were understood. Then the face was swollen.
"Let's talk about this plan," General Hackett said, putting down the picture in his hand. I pinched the bridge of my nose helplessly, and things that went beyond the plan are always a headache, even if it's a good thing. "I wonder why it makes you so excited."
Several old battleship experts looked at each other, and finally asked Professor Xu Zhengze to speak. Although his technical level is average, after all, he is Mu Xing's father-in-law, even if he says something wrong, no one laughs at him.
"This is an integrated warship design plan laid out around the core of Mass Effect. No one had ever done this before Mu Xing......" Professor Xu began his long narrative with this. And the three generals listened with burning eyes, and the more they listened, the more hot their hearts became, and they couldn't wait for this heavy patrol ship to jump off the paper and become a reality!
The genius girl, who has been completely silent since moving to the Gagarin space station, has once again come up with something shocking - and this time, the military will definitely not let it leak out!
The first is the application of new technology - short-range wireless transmission technology (a weakened version of wireless transmission), which has brought about earth-shaking changes! Because of the amount of work required to build a cruiser, one-fifth is on the line. Moreover, wireless power transmission also improves the warship's ability to resist attacks. In the past, warships were most afraid of side attacks, because a horizontal wound was likely to paralyze half of the battleship, because the main line of axial distribution was destroyed.
Short-range wireless transmission technology, in the long run, will undoubtedly bring about changes in the industrial pattern of the whole world. But in the short term, it will certainly be limited to the military category, and the first to benefit will definitely be the newly built cruisers and battleships. That's why Vice Admiral Yang is reluctant to ask for the "Kilimanjaro" - it will be obsolete before getting off the slipway, and that's what he is talking about!
Then there is the material used in the hull, the nanomaterial "Jupiter-1". Don't say anything about this, it's all tears! Seeing this nanoscale alloy formula, how many material experts plan to change their careers from now on! High strength, good heat resistance, and burn resistance are all cool points, but not the point. The most incredible point is that there is a detailed manufacturing process behind it - it turns out that the real cow C is a low production process transformation cost and production cost......
(As an ally, Cerberus got the recipe a month early, and their factory was already remodeled.) There is no doubt that the biggest pie will be available in the future. οΌ
The Six-Way Internal Force Engine (a simplified and improved version of the Destiny Transcendent Internal Force Engine, which retains only the six directions of maneuver in the up, down, left, right, front, and rear) is equivalent to cutting the auxiliary thrusters on the battleship by 75%.
Then there is the conceptual update - for the first time, it is proposed to have a layout centered on the Mass Effect Core, and 60% of the systems or equipment on the entire battleship are closely related to the Mass Core.
This means that once the mass core is destroyed. Then the entire battleship is equivalent to scrapping (although it used to be about the same). But correspondingly, in the past, it was comprehensive protection, and now it only needs to focus on protecting the quality core. can make the battleship have sustained combat effectiveness. Because there is no verification of actual warships, it is difficult to say which is better or worse. But in terms of simplified systems, the layout of this battleship is very good.
Finally, on the assessment of combat effectiveness, when Professor Xu said, "A new type of heavy cruiser with a design length of 545 meters." Its twin-wound main gun power will be 70%-115% of that of the Everest-class dreadnought, and the overall combat power assessment of the battleship will exceed that of the Everest-class (because the dreadnoughts of Starlink are mainly main gun battles. There are very few secondary guns)", and the entire conference room fell silent.
No one objected, but all of them thought of a big question - the "Farrickson Limitation Dreadnought Agreement"!
Nima ...... This heavy cruiser. Is it a dreadnought or not? Or is it not a dreadnought? Or is it not a dreadnought?
More powerful than a dreadnought, with only half the cost, everyone seems to think of the explosion of heavy cruises - the scene is so beautiful that it makes you want to cry!

"Well, I'm looking forward to Muxing's future design for dreadnoughts." A word from Old Man Hackett. Pull everyone out of fantasy in time. Oh, yes! There will be a new type of Dreadnought in the future! We don't ask for much...... Against the dreadnoughts of the Upper Turks. It's not too much to pick five, right?! (Not too much of your sister) The era of the Great Star Alliance is finally coming!
"But ah, there are still a lot of problems with this design!" Old man Hackett's tone changed, and everyone was stunned. The first thought was, old man, didn't you rise from the big-headed soldiers? Have you forgotten to be called a "civilian general"? When did you become a battleship expert again?!
"That's not a problem!" A battleship expert immediately slapped the table! What he said was that on the drawings of the battleship, there was a large number of "this equipment submitted to the research institute for design." The required parameters are...... What can't be done is stupid". Don't say genius, even if it's a genius. You can't do the design of an entire battleship alone. Muxing's approach is that all equipment that has a mature design adopts mature products, and she only requires the entrance and exit parameters and volume. No, ask the research institute to do it itself - with a full set of materials of Asari and Turui as a reference - it is indeed stupid to design it!
Just for the sake of this note, gambling on the dignity of the research institute, several old men also have to complete the task!
"Oh," said General Hackett's old face, a faint redden. We just want to change the subject...... However, he still insisted on taking a closer look, and suddenly, he found a big problem! "What's going on with that captain's room?! The captain only needs a bed with a toilet, when does the captain's room need to have a banquet?! It's a complete waste of space! I can't agree more. β
A bed with a toilet is a vicious description - but the captain's room of a battleship is basically a bed and a small toilet with a shower.
However, his words made these commanders, and those who had also served as captains, notice, indeed! This captain's room is too big! The bedroom alone is enough...... 20 square meters?! And ah, when...... The chief officer and chief engineer are allowed to have separate bedrooms?! Is this a war or a tourist! It's too extravagant!
"And, there's!" Old man Hackett kept stirring up trouble, "The capacity is less than a hundred, and there are actually eight separate collective dormitories!" Do you think our Navy soldiers are big stars?! Do you still want a military spirit? Hmph, the little girl has never been on a warship at first glance, so she should be trained with a battleship for a few months......"
It's all about picking bones in eggs. Although everyone understands that he wants to divert that sensitive topic...... But, old man, don't you think it's a provocation to Mu Xing's design...... Is it actually more sensitive? No one answered his words.
Because although General Hackett has a good relationship with Lu Yuan and Mu Xing's siblings, it is in private, and others don't know it. Now everyone looks at Admiral Hackett sympathetically, looking like your Fifth Fleet is going to be unlucky-the Second Fleet has been canceled by Muxing Studio, and the blow has not eased up yet.
"Ahem," Professor Xu coughed twice and interjected, "The load balancing of the hull is an extremely complex calculation process, you know...... If it were to be changed here, the entire battleship would have to be torn down and rebuilt......"
"No, no!" As soon as he heard that it was going to be postponed, Vice Admiral Yang, who was about to build a fleet, immediately quit. "I just like the roll-around command room! I just like that my soldiers sleep well and play well! Which one doesn't like it, his cabin has been changed to a toilet! β
"There are not so many toilets...... "The old man Hackett, who was pushed back, muttered, "It will be a ...... to change the material warehouse"
So, this matter can be regarded as a drop.
At this time, Hackett picked up the photo in his hand again, and his head began to hurt again, "Now, let's discuss this thing......"
This photo was taken from the Nirvana Star 4 satellite of the Utopia Galaxy, and from the photo, you can clearly see that in the orbital space, thousands of people are building a main gun with a length of 3 kilometers and a diameter of several hundred meters!
This is Mu Xing's production license, and the big trouble in Lu Yuan's hands - this caliber, this size...... It made several commanders simply think about it. Is this going to kill fried rice in one shot?
It's impossible, but I want to fit it on my flagship!

PS: It seems that there have been too many things about battleships recently, and the follow-up should focus on the plot, otherwise it will not be able to stop at all. (To be continued......)
