After re-adjusting his state, Chen Xin stopped worrying about genetic modification and instead focused his energy on a few more important things at hand.
However, most projects need to wait until the construction of the scientific research base is completed before they can be launched. The only thing that can be done is the research of military weapons.
The research and development of Titan and large vehicles was limited by the space. Chen Xin did not proceed immediately. Instead, he planned to wait until the scientific research base was built and the conditions were met before conducting research and development work. He now only plans to use the time before the scientific research base is completed. , make a few weapons matching the exoskeleton and power armor.
If it is just an exoskeleton, it is also possible to use ordinary weapons. Although the assistance brought by the exoskeleton is not very strong, it can at least allow soldiers to use heavier firearms and weapons with stronger recoil, making them more powerful on the battlefield. The firepower comes.
But power armor is different. Among other things, the triggers of ordinary firearms are designed with the thickness of ordinary people's fingers. You can still wear tactical gloves or something, but if you wear thick anti-freeze gloves, your fingers It's almost as thick as a carrot, and I'm afraid I can't fit my finger into the trigger ring.
Therefore, weapons equipped for power armor must at least be enlarged in size of the trigger.
What¡¯s more important is that soldiers equipped with power armor are much stronger in terms of strength and weight.
Under such circumstances, using ordinary firearms, they can even hold an automatic rifle with one hand and shoot continuously without having to hold and press the gun to maintain ballistic stability. Therefore, they can naturally be equipped with equipment such as a 12.7mm rotary machine gun. Heavy weapons that were originally meant to be used with vehicles.
" However, the 12.7mm caliber is still too powerful. Except for main battle tanks, it is difficult for ordinary vehicles, even armored vehicles, to withstand the 12.7mm caliber armor-piercing incendiary bombs.
Chen Xin remembers that Yan Guo¡¯s weapons research department used a car to test it when designing the 12.7mm rotating machine gun. Not only was the car directly penetrated, but the entire car was hit.
Therefore, it has become inevitable to design a firearm with moderate power that is more suitable for soldiers equipped with power armor to use as an ordinary weapon.
After all, you can¡¯t always carry out missions with a heavy machine gun that can tear an ordinary person into two, right? That's too much firepower.
"If you want to design a weapon for power armor, Second Lieutenant Deng, what do you think the design should be like?" Chen Xin asked Second Lieutenant Deng holding a recording board. At this time, Second Lieutenant Deng was testing the power armor made by Chen Xinxin.
This set of power armor was made by Chen Xinxin, using the prototype design drawings that Chen Xin had completed when he was making power armor for himself and Qin Lan.
And Chen Xin has improved its power system, using the same small isotope thermoelectric battery as the exoskeleton power supply, but the output power has been amplified and some adjustments have been made in flexibility.
The whole set of power armor looks a bit like medieval knight plate armor, because it lacks edges and corners and looks quite rounded.
From the design structure point of view, this set of power armor is actually the design of an exoskeleton packaging deck. Generally speaking, a set of exoskeleton is designed first, and then armor plates are installed on the skeleton of the exoskeleton.
Unlike the two sets of Chen Xin and Qin Lan, the internal structure of those two sets is a more complex power armor skeleton, not just an exoskeleton armor.
The reason why Chen Xin designed it this way was not because he was reluctant to give good things to the military, but because he needed to consider the manufacturing cost and whether the manufacturing process could support the complex design structure.
Anyone who knows about World War II knows that Hans Military Industry is famous for its precision design and high quality, especially tanks. The Tiger, Panther and King Tiger tanks are invincible on the battlefield, but correspondingly they are complex. The structure and large number of parts are not only troublesome to repair, but also very time-consuming to build.
Correspondingly, Suvia's T34 tank has a simple structure and strong leather. It is easier to repair if it is damaged. Even with Maozi's extensive maintenance style, it can withstand the torment, and it is easier to manufacture. It¡¯s so simple that during the Battle of Stalingrad, there was a story of the T34 manufactured by the tractor factory being driven onto the battlefield without even being painted.
By comparing the two, we can know that for a country's logistics and armaments, simplicity, reliability and ease of maintenance are very important.
Chen Xin can certainly create a technologically advanced, fully functional, and powerful power armor, but such a thing is closer to a rich toy like the Iron Man suit, rather than a military equipment that can be deployed on a large scale.
¡°In addition, the country is now mass-producing exoskeletons,¡±Using a production line and using a large number of parts of the same specification can also reduce manufacturing investment and facilitate faster production.
Second Lieutenant Deng didn¡¯t feel much about this. He was quite satisfied with the power armor he wore.
Although it is a motion feedback powered armor, he did not feel any slow response. Basically, when his body moved, the powered armor already responded, and the efficiency was very good.
As for Chen Xin¡¯s question about weapons, Second Lieutenant Deng thought for a while and said: ¡°I think an automatic rifle with stable and reliable performance is necessary. Although I see many weapons in games or science fiction works are quite advanced, what about electromagnetic , Gaussian, laser, etc., but it is still simple and reliable, as long as it can output firepower continuously and stably.¡±
Chen Xin nodded, not surprised by this. A good gun is not just about high accuracy and fast firing rate, but more importantly, reliability and stability. Otherwise, the AK47 would not be the most produced firearm in the world. , even used from World War II to the present.
"I understand, I will pay attention to this." Chen Xin recorded Second Lieutenant Deng's opinions, and then asked him: "Do you think there is any improvement in this set of power armor?"
"It's good in all aspects, but our special forces team will bring a lot of things with them when they perform missions. How do you pack this set of power armor? Do you use external carrying equipment?" Lieutenant Deng asked a very critical question.
In various film and television works and video games, we usually don¡¯t consider how the characters carry supplies. The former is for aesthetics and visual effects, while the latter has a versatile backpack space and does not even require the action of taking out items.
But it definitely won't work in reality. Even Chen Xin himself built a silo behind his power armor. This kind of power armor supplied to the military must have a place to store things. Otherwise, ammunition and other There is no place to put things. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
