Chapter 821: New Plan
It's true that no one knows more about tank armor than Rocky, so he didn't pay attention to tank armor at all and didn't involve derivatives, and he didn't plan to do this kind of design at all.
In Rocky's opinion, the tank warframe has no need for melee combat at all, because the normal air demon warframe is more than capable of this requirement, so instead of working on this, it is more appropriate to imagine how to make the tank warframe a more powerful support warframe.
Not only did he scoff at the derivative tank armor produced by other companies, but he also did not intend to imitate the other party at all, in fact, he had his own plan, and the idea of this plan was very clear.
He intends to further enhance the support capabilities of the tank-type warframe, while also designing a new air-magic warframe that is entirely targeted at land combat.
During this time, Rocky has actually been busy with these two things, because since the war officially started, he realized that the type of land armor close to the tank armor is simply not enough to support the counteroffensive war, so he has the above two ideas.
So when Orton and others were busy with new technology, he led the Warframe R&D team to start the research and development of new models of tank Warframes and a new generation of special armor for land warfare.
In the matter of the new tank armor, Rocky has long thought about what the focus of the improvement is, the first is attack power, and the second is precision strike ability.
Although the current tank-type armor has a good long-range strike ability, the attack power is not very strong, and the main reason is that this armor came out too early, when the tank armor came out, not only the attribute technology was not successful, but even the rune technology was not mature, so although the latest model of the tank armor also uses rune technology, it is mainly used for power, and the improvement of other performance is not large.
In this case, Rocky focused on strengthening the attack power and designed a new weapon system for it, so that the long-range strike ability of the tank warframe can reach the level that the rune warframe should have.
In addition, he also focused on strengthening the aiming system, as a special armor for support, it is definitely not possible to lack accuracy, and this is another flaw of the old tank armor, the aiming system on the old tank armor is very simple, when used as a turret, it is nothing, and it is a little powerless in the fierce battle.
Therefore, Lodge specially prepared a new aiming system to strengthen the tank armor, and the reason why he was able to do this was naturally thanks to the contribution of the Magic Energy Research Institute, and the technology they handed over included this kind of aiming technology, and it was still extremely advanced, which made Proya praise the top technology.
In this way, the design of the new tank warframe is not too difficult, and Rocky only needs to install the existing mature rune technology and attribute technology on the tank battleframe.
Therefore, his real key project is actually the research and development of a new generation of special armor for land warfare.
For the development of the road transfer armor, Rocky can be said to be quite persistent, the tank armor is the best proof of this, and now even more so, because he knows better than everyone that if he wants to occupy the land, he must rely on the special armor for land warfare, otherwise it will not help if the air power is strong.
But what kind of warframe should be designed to meet the needs of ground combat?
This became a big problem to be solved first.
"We're going to design a warframe that exists specifically for land warfare, not an air demon armor, but a special armor for land warfare. ”
In front of a group of researchers, Rocky repeatedly emphasized this matter, and asked everyone to follow through on this idea, to design a warframe specifically built for ground warfare, not an air magic warframe.
In this case, the first option was quickly proposed and adopted, and that was to completely abandon the flight capabilities of the Warframe.
Ground warfare, there is no need to fly, and now the air power of human beings is very strong, both battleships and air demon armors have long ruled the sky, even if the demons have also given birth to flying varieties, but after the rune battleship and rune armor came out successively, the demon did not shake people's dominance in the sky.
It was quickly agreed that the special armor for land warfare did not require the ability to fly at all.
And once this point is determined, other plans are immediately proposed, because once the flying ability is removed, then the biggest source of magic energy consumed by the battle armor will be gone, and there will be a large surplus of magic energy, which will undoubtedly provide a greater space for the design of the special armor for land warfare.
Therefore, in the following month, a large number of plans were put forward one after another, some were rejected, some were approved, and some were trying, as for Lodge, who was in charge of this project, he was running at both ends, on the one hand, he was concerned about the research and development of a new tank armor, and on the other hand, he was taking care of the development of a new type of special armor for land warfare.
At the same time, the counteroffensive war is still in full swing.
After successfully occupying Marta, the coalition army did not continue to attack other cities, but chose to fight steadily, which is undoubtedly a very decisive decision, because since the goal of the first battle is in Marta City, it means that the coalition forces intend to use this city as the base camp of this war, so after regaining control of the city and sweeping away all the demons in the city, the coalition army began to build a large number of fortifications in the city.
With crumbling walls, towers re-erected, and bunkers populated with soldiers, the recaptured city of Marta was quickly restored to its former glory, at least in terms of defensive capabilities, and became a solid fortress.
With such a fortress, the coalition forces have a base camp on land, and from then on, they can be mobilized around it.
However, the preparations on the part of the coalition army are in full swing, but the demons are not idle, although the demons have not appeared on a large scale in the more than a month since the restoration of Marta City, but after that, groups of demons have appeared.
As if to retake Marta City, the number of demons' first large-scale counterattack exceeded 20,000, and more than 20,000 demons of all kinds rushed like wild horses, not to mention Marta City, even the earth was constantly fighting for it.
This kind of scene has never been seen by many city lords, because even if some of the city lords have land properties and are often attacked by demons, but because the scale of the industry is too small, the number of demons attacked is only a few thousand at most, and that kind of small scene and the big scene of more than 20,000 demons rushing over together are simply very different, so many people are stunned when they see this kind of scene.
