Since the Military Industrial Research Institute was transferred to WLMs, the relationship between Asa and WLMs suddenly became close. As other research institutes transferred experts to these two institutions, they made rapid progress in the research and development of advanced weapons. The Australian Air Force Space Command has built a small town as its headquarters near Dock River, with a military airport, high-speed railways and roads connected to Xinwei City.
The follow-up model of the ea-class aerospace aircraft is the aerospace fighter ASF1, which is a model developed at the request of the Air Force. There are a total of five aircraft in the asf1 series including asf1a and asf1b, and asf2 is currently under development. Type 2 has improved the aerodynamic layout in the atmosphere, has a longer lifespan than asf1, can run faster, and has more powerful weapons. This type of aircraft is not easy to deal with, the missiles cannot keep up, and the electromagnetic gun cannot deal with it for the time being. Although the large laser cannon can keep up, the armor of the ASF1 has certain defense capabilities against the laser cannon. It is not a satellite, and its maneuverability is much higher than that of a space vehicle that can only slowly change orbit.
The energy of laser attenuates quickly due to absorption and scattering in the atmosphere, but it is a powerful weapon in space warfare. The Laser Cannon Laboratory of the ASA Weapons Research Institute is a department that specializes in the research of ship-borne high-power laser cannons. This thing can be used against the ground, but the laser cannon laboratory targets dangers in space, such as meteorites, comets and aliens. some type of.
¡°I don¡¯t think you established the Electromagnetic Orbital Launch Laboratory to launch satellites.¡± Andreev said.
"Haha, yes, there is an aerospace plane. Why bother to find such a troublesome launch method? The cost is not as high as we imagined. My purpose is still to study the super electromagnetic rail gun." Li Zhuang told the truth.
"There are really no aliens, right? I think the possibility of seeing them in the solar system is relatively small." The director has no time to care about more fantasy news.
"Who knows? It's always good to be prepared. We used to just mess around on the earth. This time we go to space, especially to the moon and Mars to establish space bases. I wonder if unknown species will suddenly jump out." Computer The experts are a bit nervous.
"If there are really aliens, given the military strength of the earth, I am afraid that preparations will be in vain." Andreev disagreed.
"Haha, are you an ostrich? Why do you have the same logic as those dreamers? A planet with comprehensive technology, even if the technology level is low, is capable of destroying any alien aircraft, even spacecraft using anti-matter power reactors, unless they use super Energy, such as subspace energy crystals, but I don¡¯t believe that this energy can be collected casually.¡±
The various instruments invested heavily in the construction of the Space Science Institute have not found any trace of energy crystals. It is easy to change matter into energy, and energy into matter. Currently, there is not even a guiding engineering theory. Without this type of super energy, it would be impossible to jump through space at will simply by relying on antigravity and vacuum zero-point energy. No matter what scientific system, energy is always indispensable. I don¡¯t know about other places, but at least this rule must be followed in the solar system.
Andreev muttered: "It's hard to say, I've read a lot of articles, and I always feel that the solar system is full of secrets. Maybe we are pigs raised by aliens."
"These pigs are too smart. The power of the weapons they invented has exceeded the controllable range, and it is easy to tear down the pig pen. I think prehistoric humans are more likely. Aliens are far away from us. Of course, we cannot be ruled out. Descendants of alien immigrants." Arthur interfaced, he was a science fiction fan.
"You are so boring. There are also many secrets on the earth. Maybe aliens live on the earth, maybe in the underground world. My ancestors are aliens, and it is written in the family tree." Chen Xiaojun teased.
Everyone laughed. The theory of earth structure has been questioned. It cannot establish a perfect model and cannot explain many phenomena. At present, there are only hypotheses. Many people have proposed that the earth is a complex of three layers of space, that is, there is a huge underground space. Experiments have proven that the solid earth theory is highly perfect, but it cannot explain all phenomena. The crust can be seen, and the true structure of the mantle and core is only theoretical for the time being.
Deep mining technology is a by-product of the Geophysical Institute's program, but few realize it is just that. The company's business model has led many media to believe that it is a group of businessmen in the name of research. Unfortunately, the behavior of many researchers proves this view.
The Logistics Group has built three 50,000-ton research ships and six deep submersibles for the Institute of Oceanography. Researchers spend most of their time at sea every year and are a department that spends money. Scientists from other Australian institutes, especially universities, often chip in, sharing one-third of the costs, and Canberra also allocates some funding, but it is not self-sufficient. The mining group WGM is the main sponsor of the Marine Research Institute program, which can be regarded as a virtuous circle within the company. The main purpose is to study the ocean and mining, and the side is to find anomalies in the ocean. The Marine Research Institute has three large satellites to do such boring things.
"The gamma ray bomb and the small neutron bomb?" Andreev was careful.Mention nuclear weapons cautiously.
"You guys go to the lounge and wait for me. I'll be down in half an hour." Li Zhuang said to the three bodyguards. Chen Xiaojun curled his lips and left with Li Meng and Arthur.
"They are all prepared for the spaceship. I plan to start building the launch base after the moon base is completed." Li Zhuang closed the door and confessed to Andreev.
¡°What if the United Nations passes a proposal to demilitarize the moon?¡±
"Haha, let's talk about it when the time comes. If it really doesn't work, let the aerospace plane make a few more trips and set up the frame above the earth. I will slowly add it later. I only have an idea for the time being. The universe is very dangerous. If there are a large number of spacecraft and frequent missiles in the solar system, With human activities, it is difficult to predict what will happen. I am not the kind of person who will do ostriches. In fact, neither Washington nor Moscow will do ostriches."
"Haha, I have seen someone say before that there is an alien base on the moon. Citigroup and Russia are afraid of continuing to land on the moon because they are threatened by aliens, so NASA is willing to go far away to detect Mars."
"These people are good at spreading rumors, but they have not calculated the economic calculations. NASA has a budget, and it is impossible to mobilize the whole country to go to the moon to do something at a loss. The previous technical level is not comparable to now. The design of the F1 rocket engine Engineering verification was completed by burning money, and the selection and training of astronauts was expensive. It was not just lip service. The economic crisis in the 1960s and 1970s made Citigroup miserable. As for the former Soviet Union, I believe you know better than me. .¡±
"You are right, but the moon always feels incredible. I really suspect that it is a hollow ball and a man-made aircraft, maybe made by prehistoric humans." Andreev rarely gossiped.
Li Zhuang¡¯s expression was solemn. Asa launched five large lunar probes. The images returned showed that this place is indeed a bit strange. However, after the lunar base is built, we will definitely know its secrets. I hope it won¡¯t be a bad start.
Some people predicted that humans would come into contact with aliens when they established the first lunar base, but everyone in ASA regarded it as a story. The budget of the lunar base is 5 billion gold coupons, and various groups within the company's sphere of influence are developing supporting facilities. The lunar base project team is analyzing the location and method of establishing the base. If an underground base is used, the budget will be increased. It is still unknown whether an underground base can even be established. It would be great fun if this thing was really an artificial planet.
"Why don't you say anything? I think directional electromagnetic wave weapons can be used, but the power of proton impact cannons is not powerful enough. It is better to use laser cannons and electromagnetic cannons. Magnetic storm weapons may not be easy to use. The moon is not the earth." Andreev stood up and patted The computer expert's shoulder allowed the robot to refill his teacup.
"Halo, that's an experimental device, not a weapon. I remember you don't play games. The spaceship has similar protective devices." Li Zhuang reminded him.
Andreev was a little embarrassed. He just said it casually. He didn't expect to be despised by the computer expert. If anyone knew about Tesla, he would definitely be shocked, because he has so many fans who describe him as the greatest scientist in human history, and some people say he has traveled from the future.
Li Zhuang has known Tesla for a long time because it is a unit of magnetic induction intensity, and he is no stranger to big names such as Weber and Gauss. The senior repairman often repaired precision motors and electromagnetic assemblies when he was young. He knew many experts in the fields of electricity and magnetism, but they didn't know this junior.
There are many blind Tesla fans, and a Tesla coil can drive them crazy. The lightning produced by this distributed parameter high-frequency resonant transformer is very interesting, but using it for global power transmission has been proven by engineers to be unfeasible. As for the title of "Father of Alternating Current", I don't know who put it there. When Sunway Education Group introduces the lives and achievements of famous scientists, it tries to use neutral and plain language to describe them in detail, as plain as water, without adding personal opinions.
This genius inventor was once hyped as a monster, and some said he was forgotten, which really makes people speechless. It is a rare privilege to have a surname recognized as a unit of physics, but the hecklers intentionally or unintentionally avoid it. Natural science mixed with politics is easy to lose its shape, not to mention that the people who are hyping it are insane and can even say such idealistic words as "attitude determines everything."
"Electric field and magnetic field protection devices are all prepared for spacecraft, and there is also related research within ASA. If you are not familiar with this field, you can ask the supervisor below to find out. I will give you a hard time." Computer experts can understand the actual scale of ASA It is larger than NASA and RSA combined.
Andreev said excitedly: "It's okay. I never thought that I could command such a large scientific research team. The quality is no less than that of the former Soviet Union in its heyday. If the lunar base is built, I want to see it. I have studied a few After ten years of rocket development, I have never been able to fly into space, which I have always regretted."Li Zhuang looked at his figure, a little doubtful, "Can you do it? Taking a manned spacecraft to the space station is something that most people can't bear and requires special training."
Andreev hesitated for a moment and looked determined, "If that doesn't work, I'll take the aerospace plane. Our design is quite mature. If anything happens, just treat it as God's will. Hamilton even fell down the stairs at home last year. , If it weren¡¯t for the advanced technology, I guess he could only lie in bed now, and risks are everywhere.¡±
"Haha, that's good if you think so, but the research and development of escape devices must be stepped up. The astronaut center and weapons research institute are equally important."
"There is no problem at the Astronaut Center, but the powerful weapons at the Weapons Research Institute may run into trouble. The demilitarization of space has been proposed for many years. If NASA cannot keep up with us, Washington will definitely take action."
"What are they afraid of? Who can they scare now? We don't rely on the Citigroup market. Even employees from Citigroup rarely go back now. They can't even find hostages."
The two chatted about the progress for a while. Li Zhuang saw that it was getting late, so he stood up and left. Andreev left the office and went back to his own business.
"Zhuangtou, what's the secret? Are you going to drive us out? We are very strict with our mouths." Chen Xiaojun complained.
"The less you know, the safer you will be. Don't bring up the topic of today's visit when you go back to avoid accidents, understand?" Li Zhuang asked.
Chen Xiaojun and Arthur nodded quickly, they were not stupid, but Li Meng seemed not to hear. What I saw this time were all secrets. If you talk too much, someone will come looking for you sooner or later. It's impossible for them to stay out of Wesson City all day long, and the security outside is not as tight as in Wesson City.
The car was very quiet on the way back as Li Zhuang considered the weapons the spacecraft could carry. Gamma ray bombs and neutron bombs are both used as warheads in missiles, which use solid propellant and can be used in a vacuum.
Laser cannons can be used on both large and small spacecrafts, but electromagnetic guns can only be used on large spacecrafts. These two are the main force. The energy problem must be solved. Although the existing isotope batteries and super batteries are powerful enough, they are still not as good as nuclear fusion power furnaces. Antimatter weapons will not be used in the short term. There are plans to equip high-speed space spears with little impact on the spacecraft. High-power bombs that can be used in vacuum are under development.
The Robotics Research Institute is cooperating with WLMs to develop two metal exoskeleton systems that can be used on the moon. Each system is expected to cost 2 million gold coupons. They are initially named ma221h and c221h. They have the same appearance, can be used in vacuum land operations, and use a large number of nanometers. Alloy materials.
The MA221h on the design drawing weighs about 600 kilograms. Its power source is an isotope battery. Its weapons include a 20mm heavy machine gun, a laser gun and a nano-alloy sword. This machine gun, which can be called a cannon, uses two kinds of special ammunition, armor-piercing explosive incendiary bombs and armor-piercing bombs, which are astonishingly powerful. The Australian Army Special Forces exclaimed in disbelief after watching the demonstration. They planned to purchase some similar bullets of 7.62 mm and 12.7 mm, but they shook their heads when they saw the price. These bullets and special bombs are all prepared for the lunar variables, and the price is about a hundred times that of ordinary military products on Earth, because they come from the Department of Physics, not WLMs.
Each ma221h is equipped with six micro-missiles for use in special situations. The six-legged combat robots that cooperate with each other have more powerful firepower. They use laser cannons, electromagnetic guns, and ultra-high-speed missiles as their main combat weapons, and weigh about five tons.
The weapon used by c221h is similar to ma221h. It uses a group of half a million neurons integrated with smart chips, all of which are stuffed in the stomach. It has stronger self-sustaining power and weighs about 800 kilograms.
There are five types of combat robots, either four-legged or six-legged. There are no crawlers. Traffic conditions are relatively poor in bumpy places like the moon.
Li Zhuang plans to use the flywheel battery and nuclear laser in the base defense system, but it is unknown whether they can do so. Of course, he hopes that these things will not be used, because it will cost the boss a lot of money to send them over.
The computer expert came home just in time for dinner. When he entered the living room, he unexpectedly found Zhang Kai eating and drinking. He was a little puzzled. This guy had been very busy recently and basically didn't come to his house.
"Hi! You're finally back. I have something important to do!" Zhang Kai looked up and saw the host and said hello.
