Chapter 1564： Magnificent launch scene (1/2)
The first German computer, and also the first in the world, still used paper belts to input and output data. This method led to inefficiency. As a result, Cyric proposed a new method, design A solidified compiler uses mnemonics to replace machine instructions. In this way, the operating efficiency is greatly increased.
The input device is also replaced by a keyboard, allowing quick input.
At the same time, after the first one was manufactured, with the first one as a model, Germany began the peak of building the first computer. It was needed in many places. Braun research rockets were used, Dr. Messerschmidt Research jets need to be used, nuclear weapons agencies need to use.
The missile launch base here can be assigned to one, which is also after Cyric’s special instructions.
At this time, the operator's hand quickly pressed on the keyboard, input one by one instructions, the huge computer began to enter high-speed operation, counting the shooting elements.
The firing of short-range missiles is only a few hundred kilometers, and the Earth is the coordinate system. However, the launching of medium-range missiles is different. It is a thousand miles away. It is necessary to consider the rotation of the earth and the wind speed at the launch site. Happening. When launching from high latitudes to low latitudes, the difference in linear velocity at different latitudes must also be considered.
At this time, a mechanical calculator is definitely not enough, only this kind of electronic computer will do.
While the electronic computer is calculating the firing elements, the pre-launch preparations are being carried out intensively and effectively on the launch position.
After the fuel has been refilled, the seal test is performed, the various parts of the system on the missile enter the self-test, the gyro is ready to start, and the fuel pump begins to exhaust air. Everything is going on normally. The rigorous Germans are doing these experiments. Serious.
”The computer has completed the trajectory calculation.” At this moment, the hum of the huge computer system disappeared, and instructions appeared on the terminal screen.
”Assign to various silos and bind them to the missile system.”
Time was passing by little by little. At this time, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening in Iceland, and the night in Iceland was slowly coming.
The sun slipped to the sea level to the west, but soon, it will rise again from the east. Although it is not as good as the absolute polar day in the Arctic Circle, the real night will not exceed two hours, and it is not completely dark. It's just a gray feeling.
All preparations have been completed.
”Silo 1 is ready.”
”Silo 2 is ready.”
…
When Silo No. 20 finished the report, Colonel Dornberg looked at the clock on the wall at 11:15.
”The launch begins!” Colonel Dornberg said, ”Let the Americans tremble, and let them know that in front of our No. 14 unit, no city is fortified!”
The launch begins!
Following Colonel Dornberg's order, a famous launcher slammed his hand to the launch button on the console.
Silo No. 1.
There was a burst of white gas from the three cone-shaped engine nozzles. This was the rapid gasification of nitric acid. Then, in the sound of the turbine of the fuel pump, unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine was sprayed into the combustion chamber of the rocket engine. It burns quickly.
