Vol 2 Chapter 1551: New weapon

1551 New weapons
"How is the next-generation armor unit developed?" Tang Yu continued to ask.
"The chassis is still in the design and finalization process, but the replacement module has been built." Remi said.
"Is there any problem with the chassis?" Tang Yu asked.
"One of the deadliest weakness of the Horned Dragon tank is that the firepower of this tank is too weak. Although we have learned and communicated with the 01 country, the technology of the electromagnetic suspension engine has been improved to a higher level, but it is also loaded with 50 tons. The weight, the unit cost based on the ground and the unit cost suspended in the air are completely different." Remi said.
Tang Yu nodded. In fact, with the spread of the entire empire, many equipment designs are no longer handled by himself. For example, the next-generation tank of the Horned Dragon tank, he said: "So the chassis of the next-generation tank is to be tracked? Or wheeled? Or is it walking?"
"All three have designs. The wheeled chassis is faster, easier to maintain, and has the lowest cost. However, the load-bearing capacity is not great, and although the design is a solid tire, the impact resistance is still a symbol. The weight of the crawler type is also strong enough, but once damaged, it is difficult to repair on the battlefield, and the speed is not ideal. If it is walking, the speed is too slow. If the model is designed to be variable to form a crawler, the cost is too high. Does not meet our needs." Remi said.
Tang Yu touched his chin and said, "Then let the scientific research team solve it by myself. I won't intervene. I haven't participated in the two wars in the "Alien vs. Predator" world and in the "Dragon Age" world. More, let them design according to the needs of the battlefield."
"Then look at the arms designed for the new generation of tanks." Remy said.
Tang Yu drove directly to the laboratory on the other side, where he was prepared for the experiment. The special truck was loaded with several weapon modules made for the new generation of tanks and was being tested on the test site.
"Although there are still many differences in the design of a new generation of tanks, the basic concept is the same, that is, to achieve a variety of functions through modularization, to maximize the use of industrial assembly line capacity. So on this basis, we give priority to weapons The module is made." Remi said.
Tang Yu saw one of the modules turned into a diamond shape, which looked like a car, and more than a dozen soldiers were opening the doors to enter and exit, and constantly feedback the comfort level of the seats inside and whether access was obstructed. Then they sat in again and tested the situation when they were bumped, shaken or even attacked.
"This is the troop transport module?" Tang Yu said.
"Yes, it can transport up to 20 soldiers, as well as the weapons and ammunition carried by these soldiers. If these soldiers are equipped with mechanized exoskeletons, the number will be reduced to 10. On this module, dual-purpose dual-purpose dual-units are also equipped The six-barreled electromagnetic machine gun can provide a certain amount of support firepower. According to the situation, the machine gun can also be replaced with a shield generator." Remy replied.
Tang Yu looked at the other direction. The truck mounted in this direction was a heavy artillery turret. The barrel is square, with energy flashing in sections. Then, the heavy artillery fired! A dazzling electric light was emitted from the muzzle, followed by a shell of electricity, almost hitting the m1a1 tank as a target vehicle at a distance of 500 meters!
"This is our latest electromagnetic gun with a caliber of 150 mm, a barrel of 75 times, a limit rate of fire of 12 rounds per minute, and uses a 35 kg heavy shellless armor-piercing projectile with an initial velocity of 4500 meters per second and a maximum range of 8000 meters. The range is 6000 meters. That is to say, the shells can hit all the targets in the range within 1.5 seconds. By the way, the m1a1 tank target car we used is filled with steel, that is, it is solid. "Remi said.
The trailer quickly towed the target car. Tang Yu suddenly saw that the front of the m1a1 tank filled with steel had been opened. A large hole with a diameter of more than 1 meter appeared on the front of the tank. Moreover, the tank had been I put on a pair! ! The external reaction armor and the ceramic composite armor can't stop the bombardment of this artillery. They are penetrated like a piece of paper, showing the solid steel inside the tank that was burnt red by violent friction.
"Contact Fulan, send a captive Apocalypse tank over, use this electromagnetic gun to experiment on the Apocalypse tank, and see if it can penetrate the frontal armor of the Apocalypse tank." Tang Yu ordered.
"Ok."
Next, Tang Yu also saw the experiments on the air modules, maintenance modules, battlefield support modules, bridge modules, etc., but he felt that something was missing. So he turned around and asked, "Why are there no weapons for long-range fire support?"
"Because of the new generation of long-range firepower support weapons, our main reform is in the artillery shells. According to the scientific team’s speculation, the Xuanwu self-propelled artillery is still a very efficient artillery, and its potential has not yet been fully developed. Therefore, in our decision Xuanwu self-propelled artillery can be used for a long time until the gunpowder cannon is completely replaced by plasma guns." Remy said.
"New shells?"
"Yes, three types of shells. One is a shell used to kill soldiers behind bunkers. It is a white phosphorus shell. After the shell is launched over the target, it will lock up to a maximum of 80 infrared targets under a short time, and then launch sub-munitions. The hit rate is more than 70%. The submunition is a white phosphorus incendiary bomb, basically hitting one shot, the person is dead. In previous experiments, five Xuanwu self-propelled artillery fired 10 such white phosphorus submunitions at once. All human targets in the 500-meter-long bunker can be emptied. In addition, I think that in the war we are facing, should there not be a United Nations to condemn us for using white phosphorus bombs?" Remy said expressionlessly.
"The second type is high-explosive shells. This shell uses terminal guidance technology, which can adjust its landing point during the descent phase to hit a higher-value target. In addition, the charge is the latest cl-20 explosive~www .EbookFREE.me~ A 155mm high-explosive shell with a killing radius of 150 meters to 200 meters, which is 5 times that of ordinary high-explosive shells. To make an inappropriate analogy, like the World Trade Center in the past, this kind of target The shells can be ploughed to the ground with one shot."
"The last one you should be very interested in is a tactical nuclear bomb." Remy said.
"Nuclear shells?" Tang Yu seemed somewhat interested in lacking. "Now our legion's most urgent need is not damage ability?"
"In fact, the equivalent of this shell is not large, mainly to generate electromagnetic pulses by controlled nuclear fusion, so it is actually the first electromagnetic pulse bomb! The electromagnetic pulse radiation range generated by each shell can reach 400 To 600 meters! That is to say, if the enemy's electronic equipment is not protected within this range, it will be completely burned." Remy said.
"If this is the case, then it will be very interesting!" Tang Yu suddenly blinked, "In the war with Izumo, this bomb will definitely play a key role!"
"Let's be cautious," Remy said. "Izumo's technology of this level is impossible without considering the attack of electromagnetic pulse weapons."
