Chapter 419: New equipment design

After re-adjusting his state, Chen Xin no longer entangled with genetic modification, and instead devoted his energy to several important things at hand.
However, most of the projects need to wait until the construction of the scientific research base is completed. The only thing that can be done is the research on military weapons.
The research and development of Titans and large vehicles is limited by the site. Chen Xin did not proceed immediately. Instead, he intends to wait for the scientific research base to be built and the conditions are met before proceeding with the research and development work. He now only intends to use the time before the scientific research base is built. , Make several exoskeleton and power armor matching weapons.
Let me tell you that the book reading app I'm using recently, [\\mi\\mi\\read\\app\\\\] has a lot of sources, a full range of books, and fast updates!
If it’s just an exoskeleton, it is also possible to use ordinary weapons. Although the assistance provided by the exoskeleton is not very strong, it can at least allow soldiers to use heavier and stronger firearms and weapons on the battlefield. The firepower comes.
The power armor is different. Apart from anything else, the triggers of ordinary firearms are designed with the thickness of ordinary people’s fingers. You can wear a tactical glove or something, but if you wear heavy antifreeze gloves, your fingers It's almost as thick as a carrot, I'm afraid that my fingers won't fit into the trigger ring.
Therefore, weapons equipped with power armor must be enlarged at least in the size of the trigger.
More importantly, soldiers equipped with power armor are much stronger in terms of strength and weight.
Under such circumstances, using ordinary firearms, they can even shoot continuously with one-handed automatic rifle without holding and pressing the gun. They can maintain the stability of the ballistic, so naturally they can be equipped with such as 12.7mm revolving machine guns. A heavy weapon that can only be used with a vehicle.
However, the 12.7mm caliber is still too powerful, except that the main battle tank can't move, ordinary vehicles, even armored vehicles, can hardly withstand the 12.7mm caliber armor-piercing incendiary bomb.
Chen Xin remembers that Yan Guo’s weapons research department used a car to test when it was designing the 12.7mm revolving machine gun. Not to mention the car was directly pierced, even the whole car was hit.
Therefore, it is inevitable to design a firearm that has moderate power and is more suitable for soldiers equipped with power armor as ordinary weapons.
After all, you can't always carry a heavy machine gun that can tear ordinary people into two sections to perform tasks, right? That's too much firepower.
"If you want to design a weapon for power armor, what do you think Lieutenant Deng should design?" Chen Xin asked Lieutenant Deng with a record board. At this time, Lieutenant Deng was testing the power armor made by Chen Xinxin.
This set of power armor was made by Chen Xinxin, and it used the prototype design that Chen Xin had completed when he and Qin Lan made the power armor for both of them.
And Chen Xin improved its power system, using the same small isotope thermoelectric battery as the exoskeleton power supply, but the output power has been amplified a bit, and some adjustments have been made in flexibility.
The entire power armor looks a bit like a medieval knight's plate armor, because it lacks edges and corners and is quite round.
In terms of design structure, this power armor is actually the design of an exoskeleton packaging deck. As a whole, a set of exoskeleton is designed first, and then armor pieces are installed on the exoskeleton skeleton.
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 this way is not that he is reluctant to give the military a good thing, but that he needs to consider the manufacturing cost and whether the manufacturing process can support the complex design structure.
Anyone who knows World War II knows that Hans Military Industries is known for its sophisticated design and high quality. Among them, the tanks are especially obvious. The Tiger, Leopard, and Tiger King tanks are invincible on the battlefield, but the corresponding ones are complicated. The structure and a large number of parts are not only troublesome to repair, but also very labor-intensive to build.
Corresponding to this is Suvia’s T34 tank, which has a simple structure and strong skin. It is easier to repair if it is broken. It can withstand the toss and can withstand the toss and is more manufactured even with the extensive maintenance style of fur. Simple, even during the Defence of Stalingrad, there is a story of the T34 manufactured by the tractor factory that went on the battlefield without even painting.
By comparing the two, we can know that simplicity, reliability, and ease of maintenance are very important for a country's logistics and armaments.
Of course, Chen Xin can create power armor with advanced technology, comprehensive functions, and powerful strength, but such a thing is closer to a rich toy such as 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.
Lieutenant Deng didn't feel much about this ~EbookFREE.me~ The power armor on his body already made him quite satisfied.
Although it was an action-feedback power armor, he didn't feel any slowness in response. Basically, while his body was moving, the power armor had already responded, and the efficiency was very good.
As for the question about weapons that Chen Xin asked, Lieutenant Deng thought for a while and said: "I think it is necessary to have a stable and reliable automatic rifle. Although I see many weapons in games or science fiction works are quite tall, what kind of electromagnetic? , Gauss, laser and so on, but it’s still simple and reliable, and it’s good to be able to continuously and stably output firepower."
Chen Xin nodded, not surprised by this. A good gun does not have high precision and a fast rate of fire. More importantly, it is reliable and stable. Otherwise, the AK47 will not be the world's most produced firearm. , Even used from World War II to now.
"I understand, I will pay attention to this." Chen Xin recorded Ensign Deng's opinion, and then asked him: "Do you think there is any improvement in this power armor?"
"It's good in all aspects, but our special forces will carry a lot of things when performing missions. How do you install this power armor? Is it an external carrying device?" Lieutenant Deng asked a very critical question.
In various film and television works and video games, it is usually not considered how the characters carry materials. The former is for aesthetics and visual effects, while the latter has a versatile backpack space, and even the action of digging things is not required.
But in reality it is definitely not possible. Even Chen Xin himself has built a silo behind his power armor. This power armor for the military must have a place to load things, otherwise, ammunition and other things. There is no place to put things at all.
