803 Weapons Discussion

"Armor-piercing shells? Really? Wu Han couldn't believe his ears, and for the first time in his age, he suspected that he had a hearing problem, "I said Ye Fei, you kid is too good at tinkering, right?" ”

The answer was so simple that Wu Han didn't know what to say, and while checking the information of the armor-piercing bullet, he muttered at length.

"Of course it's true, how dare I fool you with this kind of thing, turn around and make you unhappy, and still don't push me to the end?" Ye Fei teased with a smile.

Wu Han briefly read the information of the armor-piercing bullet, and said with emotion: "It would have been nice if I had known that this thing would be useful, but now it's an afterthought." ”

"It's not too late to know, it's always useful." A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Ye Fei's eyes, "Don't talk about it, at least we have to snatch the earth back, right?" ”

It has been more than three years since humans came into contact with the Atlanteans, and the two sides have fought many air battles and sabotage attacks, but the only direct confrontation between the ground forces face-to-face is YM174.

Although when the Atlanteans invaded the solar system, the moon base wiped out a group of Atlantean troops, the defensive weapons on the periphery of the moon base were at least at the battery level, not comparable to the less powerful individual weapons.

Wu Han listened to Ye Fei's words and smiled bitterly: "I don't know that in the Year of the Monkey, Ma Yue can only save a fleet to fight against the occupying army, but it's okay, no one can say that one day the ground troops will be useful, and it is better to be prepared now than to hold on to it temporarily...... Is there any difficulty in making armor-piercing bullets practical? Do you need me to coordinate with the design department? ”

Emotionally speaking, Wu Han didn't want the forward fleet to stay in the Blue Light Star to build a new colonial star. Although the blue star can be used as a bridgehead for the future counterattack on the solar system, there is nothing wrong with withdrawing the fleet to the base star, and it will not take a few days to complete the construction of the support base by dispatching a little more robots during the counteroffensive.

However, intellectually speaking, the advance fleet staying near the solar system has a dual military and political significance, although the strength of the fleet is completely incomparable with the enemy, but maintaining a certain range of military strength in the fallen solar system is itself a merit worthy of special mention and full publicity!

At the very least, it can let the people who have left their homeland know that the military has never given up resistance!

If you look at the history of the republic with blood and tears in your eyes, you will only get worse bullying if you go against it. Only by rising up and resisting. in order to obtain true dignity with blood and life.

The universe, like the earth, is a place where strength is paramount, and whoever has the biggest fist has more right to speak. Although the base star is safe, if it is a corner of peace because of this, it will become an ostrich who will not want to think about it, even if the humans are not ruined in the hands of the Atlanteans. Sooner or later, it will be extinct under the aggression of some other cosmic race.

"Don't worry. No problem at all. Ye Fei said. The design of the smoothbore guns is ready-made, and with a slight change, it can be equipped with mechs, and the new shells of 50 mm caliber have also been realized. The individual warhead does not work well, but the tandem warhead works very well, and if necessary, it is possible to create a triple warhead, and my side has already begun to work on the construction of a new arsenal, which will not be long before it can be equipped with mecha units in large quantities. ”

"Just a mech unit?" Wu Han was a little disappointed, "Can't the commando team be used?" ”

"Can't!" Ye Fei said categorically, "The triple warhead must also reach a minimum of thirty-five millimeters to have sufficient penetration, and the assault team can only be used as a support weapon, unless one person is carrying a grenade launcher in his hand, but in this way, the amount of ammunition carried is too small, and the duration of the battle is too short, so it is meaningless at all." ”

The commandos can use this kind of warhead with rocket artillery, grenade launchers, missiles and other weapons, but the amount of equipment for a person with dozens of rounds is indeed too small, you must know that the rifle ammunition base of each commando starts at nearly 700 rounds, compared to the rocket artillery that carries the most amount is only 44 rounds.

"Looks like the mechs have to be preserved." Wu Han said, "The mecha did not perform well in the YM174 War, and it was originally a real unit, and now the demand for the base star is very high, and they all demand the cancellation of the flashy equipment of the mecha." ”

"The failure of the YM174 is not in the mecha, but in the problem with the weapons in which the mecha is configured." Ye Fei said, "The commandos here have all experienced the battles on the YM174, and these fighters on the front line know better than anyone what kind of equipment they need. ”

"This sentence is reasonable, then let's do it first, but Ye Fei, do you think there is any possibility of application of other weapon platforms besides mechas? Like tanks or something. ”

Ye Fei thought carefully before replying: "I believe the answer is yes, but no matter what kind of equipment needs to be re-adapted by the commando, only the mecha can form combat effectiveness in the shortest possible time." ”

What are you kidding, is the tank thing suitable for commandos to be airborne? The operation is complicated, not to mention the slow speed, unless the tank armor can protect against the Atlantean decomposition beam, it is not a good thing at all.

However, if the tank armor had this ability, wouldn't it be able to play the same role if it was directly mounted on the combat armor or mech?

If it weren't for the fact that the caliber of the armor-piercing bullet couldn't be lowered at all, Ye Fei really wanted to eliminate all the mechas.

"We can't do anything with Atlantean armor, it's a bit like when tanks first appeared, no one could do anything with this thing." Wu Han said, "In ancient times, helicopter gunships were specially used to deal with tanks, do you think they can be used?" ”

"I'm afraid it is...... No way! Ye Fei replied cautiously, "The Atlanteans also have flying troops, and they fly fast and have strong firepower. Besides, the Atlanteans' decomposition beam is not nearby, and if it flies slowly, it is equivalent to hitting the muzzle of the gun, and it is simply delivering food. ”

Helicopters are the nemesis of tanks, fighter jets hitting helicopters is a one-sided slaughter, and the Atlanteans also apply the law of one thing to one thing.

"If you say so, you have to develop flying mechs." Wu Han smiled, "Okay, just do it, you are the commander at the front, and my side must pay attention to your opinion." But Ye Fei, don't forget the ordinary commandos, equip them with new weapons, if it weren't for the fact that the antimatter weapon has not broken through, how can it be so troublesome, and one person and one pistol can directly surprise the Atlanteans! ”

"That's a good feeling!" Ye Fei imagined that if antimatter weapons really became a reality, ordinary 5.5mm warheads would definitely be able to hit the power of missiles. (To be continued......)
