Chapter 71 Matrix of Clustered Laser Floating System
On the surface, Shen Sen, who has almost influenced tens of thousands of people, has infinite scenery, but only Shen Sen himself knows that he is now a person who picks up rags everywhere.
Every day, I am trying to find a way to do something here and there, seizing every opportunity to secretly strengthen my strength, seeking the ability to overturn the table one day.
Although in some ways, the Blue Star, where Region 9 is located, has a lot to do with Earth, but in terms of social and technological development, there is a big difference between the two.
For example, the military technology of the world in the ninth region is developing at a high speed in this era, and all countries are frantically increasing military spending and launching an arms race.
Coupled with the advent of alien prawns, although they could not break through some of the high-tech techniques of prawns, through research, they still obtained some corner techniques.
In this situation, MUN, which is formed by a multinational alliance, has become the second largest arms manufacturer in Blue Star in just a few years, and will produce a large number of advanced weapons and equipment next year.
Compared to Earth, the military power here is much stronger than it was during the Cold War.
Therefore, in the face of such a situation, considering the resources available to him, Shen Sen did not dare to engage in wind and rain at all, and could only use the unique three-regardless area of the ninth district to develop obscenely.
But to be honest, Shen Sen felt very lucky in this situation, if the exit of the gate of time and space was in other regions, maybe he would be approached by a large number of official organizations as soon as he emerged.
Although some of his weapons are highly technological, they will turn into a mass of scrap metal, an electromagnetic firearm without many bullets, and a mechanical exoskeleton without energy, just a mass of tasteless and discarded garbage.
Therefore, when Old Man Li told him that it was possible to buy one get one free for this operation, the face on his mechanical exoskeleton that others could not see already had a happy look.
"Hive?"
"Is that this thing painted on the wall?"
A silver-gray giant metal ball that looked like it was floating in the air, with sunken holes on the surface that could give goosebumps to people with dense phobia, Shen Sen really couldn't tell what type of weapon it was for a while.
"Are you sure it's a weapon, not some totem that the gang scribbled?" Shen Sen confirmed again
Old man Li's expression was solemn: "The old man doesn't dare to say that he is 100 percent, and he is 80 percent sure."
Although I myself am not engaged in the field of military-technical research in the Republic. But the pattern on the wall, I still know it.
Because its prototype is too famous, it is a small unmanned space equipment that we landed on this planet, in order to deal with the local threat on the planet, and rushed to work, but the effect is good. The full name is called the Cluster Laser Floating System Matrix, codenamed Honeycomb. ”
"Aerospace equipment?" Shen Sen was stunned, he only heard these words in a series of introductions, and then he asked tentatively: "Is it a weapon that is unmanned and can still fly in the sky?" ”
"Ugh!" Old man Li didn't react for a while, his expression was a little hesitant, and finally he affirmed in a hesitant tone: "That's pretty much it, the leader can understand it like this!" ”
After saying that, Old Man Li regretted it a little, he was careless, and almost forgot, this Shen Sen leader is a remnant of the wasteland, and it is estimated that he doesn't understand these professional concepts very well, so next time he must organize the language and introduce these things in a way that everyone can understand.
However, what Old Man Li didn't know was that after Shen Sen gave a definite answer, a corresponding thing immediately popped up in his heart - drones.
Although he did not know why he heard the tall name, but the weapon that can fly is unmanned and unmanned, so he immediately understood, isn't this the same principle as the drone!
That's it?
Can he not understand?
Throwing away those matrices, clusters, systems, and floats, in Shen Sen's current impression, this weapon called the hive has become a drone that looks like a large ball in the air.
Military drones, Shen Sen is not too familiar, but not too unfamiliar.
Because before he crossed, there were just two small countries on the earth fighting a war during that time, and in this war, the most eye-catching thing was the use of military drones.
He watched the news, and by the way, because of curiosity, he checked the relevant information, so he knew a little.
From a certain point of view, this war between small countries should not have attracted the attention of so many forces, but what everyone did not expect was that this war turned out to be the first international-level drone war in human history.
UAVs no longer play a supporting role in the war, but are systematically and massively thrown into the main attacking force and become a decisive force for victory on the battlefield.
At the beginning of the war, the first attacking side invested a large number of armored forces, tanks, artillery, and combat vehicles, while the other side was originally slightly weaker, but unexpectedly they chose to invest a large number of attack drones, and won an early victory in the war with an overwhelming advantage.
In the first 10 days of the war, the side attacked by UAVs not only lost a large number of combat vehicles, artillery, and tanks, but also lost missile and air defense equipment and fire control radars one after another, and the ground troops were completely reduced to lambs to the slaughter.
The war was almost one-sided.
What determines the victory or defeat of the war is no longer morale and hand-to-hand combat, but the technical level of the UAV, as well as the calm blow of the operator behind it.
No one cares about the outcome of this war, but the role of military drones in it still surprises everyone.
No one can say what modern or even future warfare will look like, but in those days on Earth, it was believed that information would be the focus of contention and control between the warring parties.
Under this trend, the military technology of various countries is also developing in the direction of intelligence, networking, miniaturization, hypersonic speed, and even unmanned.
And under certain technical limitations, UAVs have some irreplaceable advantages over manned fighters.
For example, the reaction time of humans is not less than 0.1 seconds, but the reaction time of AI is no more than one millisecond, which is more than 100 times the difference between the two.
The world's martial arts are only fast and unbreakable.
On the basis of this speed of reaction, it is possible that the UAV will again gain the ability to maneuver to evade.
The second is greater overload tolerance, and human physical fitness has become a bottleneck for the further improvement of fighter maneuverability.
Fighter jets can be improved with rapid iterations of materials and energy, but the human body cannot keep pace with the evolution of equipment, and it is estimated that it can only withstand up to 11g for a long time, and drones seem to be the fastest way to solve this problem.
Then there is the fact that there is no cost of training and no fear of combat losses.
It takes years for a good pilot to train, and it only takes seconds for AI to be downloaded to the on-board computer, and there is no cost.
In this way, the big countries will use drones to intervene in local wars, and they will no longer be afraid of the plane being shot down, it is nothing more than a matter of money.
Not to mention the other advantages, lighter, more powerful, and strong stealth, these advantages seem to show that drones have a lot to offer in the scope of human warfare.
But this is also on a conventional level, because on the planet, countries that can develop unmanned fighters think that they have enough fighters at hand to crush all countries except those big powers, and countries that need them cannot build them.
And those big powers are basically unlikely to fight until the nuclear deterrence disappears.
Because no one can guarantee that in the end, the two sides can still maintain the most rational decision, instead of throwing Big Ivan at each other!
The rest is an ethical issue, which is essentially an AI technology issue.
When drones can't do the same as people, although some unmanned ground vehicles in several large countries have exceeded the average level of soldiers in the identification rate of friend or foe against individual targets, the decision to attack is still in the hands of soldiers.
This is where the entanglement and contradiction of human beings lies!
