Chapter 374: Cruise Missiles
"Captain David!"
Gu Yang raised his hand and took out a jade slip and said:
"I intend to recommend you to the post of commander of the fleet, here are the detailed parameters and operational guidelines of the two ships, you should familiarize yourself with them first. ”
"Thank you, Your Excellency!"
David was overjoyed when he heard this, took the jade slip with both hands, and said worriedly:
"But Your Excellency, I have heard that the procurement proposal submitted by the military is very much resisted in Parliament......"
"The procurement case submitted now is only a part of the overall procurement plan, just to test the waters. ”
Gu Yang looked into the distance and said in a leisurely tone:
"Carrier battle groups are a new thing, and it's always a process for people to accept new things, especially when there's no pressure. Okay, you organize the training first, and we'll set sail for the war in a month at most. ”
"Yes. ”
David said with his mouth, but his heart was puzzled. The frigate was fine, after all, there was a gun emplacement in the bow and stern, and there were also a number of anti-aircraft batteries on both sides. But there was nothing on board the aircraft carrier, and she could not imagine its combat capabilities at all. But when she probed her divine sense into the jade slip, she was stunned.
This deck is actually used to take off and land aircraft, and the performance of each aircraft is even more unbelievable to her. The combat radius is 10,000 li, the strike radius is 1,000 li, the attack target is 20, and the guidance accuracy is 10 meters...... And the way of attack is quite brutal and crude, that is, an explosion, a reckless explosion. The high-ranking monks may be able to dodge in advance, but the low-ranking monks and ordinary people will definitely die in a large area. If it is on a surface ship, there is no way to hide.
Gu Yang smiled slightly, and the clouds under his feet rose into the air, heading straight for another factory in the distance. Now with ships, it's all about carrier-based aircraft and cruise missiles.
Cruise missiles can be produced on an assembly line, and carrier-based aircraft can also be produced on an assembly line, provided for sophisticated design and excellent craftsmanship.
Missiles, known as the last bow and arrow, are weapons that have been obsolete in the interstellar age. But in a world without energy cannons and ion cannons, cruise missiles are still the most efficient long-range weapons. As for ballistic missiles, it is necessary to find out whether there is outer space in this world.
The core value of missiles is not the explosive yield, but the accuracy of strikes, so guidance technology is the core technology of missiles. In the era of the earth, the guidance methods of missiles are nothing more than infrared tracking, terrain matching, satellite positioning, and target recognition......
But in the Tiangang world, there is a more efficient guidance method, which is divine guidance. The monk attached a wisp of divine consciousness to the missile to control the missile's flight, so that it could accurately hit the target thousands of miles away. Based on this design concept, a carrier-based aircraft should be equipped with at least one co-pilot, and a missile launch position should be equipped with at least 24 pilots.
This kind of attack has a great loss of divine consciousness, and the missile navigator must regularly take the elixir to nourish the divine sense, which is another troublesome matter.
"A strong life is about constantly solving new problems. ”
Gu Yang was full of spirit, and first came to Guyang Weapons Company.
Located in the west of the city of Valan, next to the military district, and covering less than 100 acres, the company is more of a weapons workshop than a military industrial base. The company's main products are firearms and bullets. The design was all done by Mozi, and the rest were mainly responsible for production and sales.
For automatic rifles, which are simple, powerful and inexpensive, everyone from the Heavenly Master to the common people is full of interest. However, the apprentices of the church starved to death of the master, and it was absolutely impossible to sell new weapons to the outside world, and it was still the old guns that were replaced when they were sold to them.
To the north is a factory that produces pistols, submachine guns, assault rifles, automatic rifles, sniper rifles, light and heavy machine guns, and various types of ammunition. The factories on the east and west sides have just been built, and the workers are piling up all kinds of raw materials in the center of the factory, obviously with sufficient orders and a thriving business.
As soon as Gu Yang appeared, a long-haired woman in a black professional skirt trotted over, and said in fear:
"Your Excellency, we didn't know you were coming, we didn't arrange a greeting, please atone for your sins. ”
Gu Yang was speechless, and his face sank and said:
"Focus on your own business, don't engage in sending to usher. ”
"Yes. ”
The female manager was silent and said carefully:
"Production and sales are normal, but the refitting of the troops is nearing completion, and we are facing excess capacity, I don't know what instructions you have. ”
Gu Yang suddenly discovered that the arms dealer was a very evil interest group, and coughed lightly:
"You don't have to worry about this, there will be countless orders flying to you soon, just start production at full capacity, and if you don't have enough money, you can directly find a bank loan. ”
"Yes!"
The female manager suddenly smiled, as if she had not thought about what the newly produced weapons would be used for.
"I'm here to develop a new product, and you vacate the factory building in the west, and no one is allowed to approach it. ”
"Is that the 'let the bullets fly'?"
The female manager's eyes suddenly widened with curiosity.
"Let the bullets fly?"
Gu Yang only felt that he was stepped on by an "alpaca", and in a blink of an eye he saw Mozi who was adding wings to cruise missiles in the factory, and was speechless for a while, and only after a while did he hold back a sentence:
"That's called a missile......"
The factory is the size of three football fields, the lights are bright under the simple roof, and several cruise missiles five or six meters long have been resting on the shelves, each one is the thickness of a bucket, pure metal texture, and full of domineering.
"How. Gu Yang asked.
"It can already be finalized, land, sea and air amphibious universal, divine guidance, the maximum range of 5,000 miles, the carrier-based aircraft is exactly 12, this is the production line design drawing. ”
Mozi said, taking out a jade slip.
The structure of the missile is extremely simple, the front is the guide, followed by the explosive, followed by the fuel tank, followed by the turbofan engine, and finally the rocket engine, a total of five modules, plug and play. If it is launched in the air, even the last rocket engine is not needed.
For this kind of core product, Gu Yang did not fake his hands to others, and began to refine and produce the magic circle after finding the materials.
Although there are only five modules, there are dozens of components subdivided, and the core technology is the magic circle that connects these parts. There are many array mages, but there are very few formation mages who can accurately design a magic circle according to actual needs, otherwise any formation mage can produce missiles.
A day later, hundreds of magic circles filled half of the factory, and under the bright lights, it was full of brilliance.
Mozi immediately took the immortal spirit materials and put them on a magic circle, and the formation immediately separated more than a dozen spirit materials and put them on different magic circles.
The second circle then erupted in blazing flames and began to smelt the materials above. Each piece of material changes into different shapes on the flame, some become turbofans, some become bearings, and some become cavities...... Then it was thrown into the next circle......
An hour later, the first missile appeared on the last circle, numbered. Mozi immediately stepped forward to check, and then said:
"It's a good product that meets the design requirements. ”
Gu Yang suddenly thought of a question and asked:
"What if someone else hits us with this missile. ”
"It's simple. ”
Mozi said disappreciatively:
"You only need to arrange a formation that prohibits divine consciousness, and you can make the missile lose its target. ”
Gu Yang then asked:
"What if the other party also uses the forbidden divine consciousness formation to defend against our missiles. ”
Mozi was stunned, and the blue light flashed in his eyes, as if he was trying his best to calculate the results.
Gu Yang raised his middle finger fiercely, gritted his teeth and said:
"Damn, this is a failed work......"
Mozi's eyes lit up, and he said seriously:
"Not every target can ban the divine consciousness, we must persist in fighting asymmetric warfare......"
"Can you still use missiles to fight an asymmetric war?"
Gu Yang raised his middle finger again......
Fifteen minutes later, the second missile was produced, which was still a good product, and the assembly line was working steadily.
In addition to missiles, carrier-based aircraft also need high-yield precision-guided bombs. This is relatively simple, Gu Yang once again refined an assembly line for the production of aerial bombs, which can produce ten per hour, and they can be detonated by loading explosives. As for air-to-air missiles, it is not too late to develop them when the enemy has aircraft.
Gu Yang then called the manager of the company for advice, and then went to Guyang Aircraft Company with Mozi......
Guyang Aircraft Company on the outskirts of the city, covering an area of 10,000 acres, is a 2,000-meter-long wide runway, and there are three civil airliners parked on the open space at the end, which is exactly the same as the one Guyang took before. Workers in blue uniforms are busy up and down.
Although three planes were built in three months, Gu Yang was very pleased. After all, it is a product that needs to be used repeatedly and with high intensity, and it is impossible to just be able to fly like a missile, and it is rare to be able to produce it on an assembly line.
Behind the apron is the factory, covering an area of 1,000 acres, which is brightly lit and in full swing. Gu Yang didn't go over, but drove the car to another deserted large factory next to the runway.
The car stopped at the door, and the lights came on, and among them were piles of small mountains of fairy materials.
A group of workers then walked out of the gatehouse, both men and women, all with well-dressed helmets, straight uniforms, and eyes full of curiosity, looking at the new generation of technical talents.
The first short-haired young woman in a uniform and skirt trotted up, opened the car door herself, and said with a smile:
"Your Excellency, the materials and engineers you want are ready. ”
"Thank you. ”
Gu Yang calmly got out of the car, glanced at everyone, and said with a smile:
"Looking at everyone's faces, it seems that they are quite worried, are they in trouble......
The female manager tugged at the corners of her mouth and said with a wry smile:
"Your Excellency, if the aviation project cannot be continued, our capital chain may have problems......"
Gu Yang knows that there are too many big projects recently, and they are all huge loans. Even if Guyang Bank does not charge interest on its own people, the interest of the central bank is a lot of money. Even if the central bank does not want interest, interest still exists because it is an inherent property of capital.
Such a mega-project of tens of billions of dollars is definitely not something that Valan Island can afford financially. Even if the government bonds were issued, the high interest rates would crush the entire national economy, unless he turned Valan into a slave state, where everyone worked without pay.
When it came to the end, Gu Yang was not very sure, but he still said:
"Rest assured, someone will pay for us, everything goes according to plan!"
