Chapter 1118 (1/2)

Jiang Chenyue liked the 20 meter long gun barrel.

Although the actual combat value of this kind of pure kinetic energy weapon in the space war of tens of thousands of kilometers has not been determined yet, it is really the romance of men that the huge ships and cannons are! The scene of the simultaneous firing of ten thousand guns is just a reflection.

Now that the cannons are available, will the ship be far away?

”Can you test it?” Jiang Chen looks at Ling Tao and asks.

”Of course! Now I'll show you its power. ” With that, Ling Tao took off the walkie talkie on his shoulder and gave orders to the engineers of the Research Institute. Soon, the gun barrel with a length of more than 20 meters was slowly lifted from the ground by the mechanical arm.

Ling Tao raised his hand and stretched out his finger to count on the touch panel. Soon, the door of the warehouse where the electromagnetic turret was stored was closed and locked. The nozzle embedded in the top of the ceiling began to throw dry ice into the warehouse inside the protective wall. At the same time, more than ten large vacuum pumps in the laboratory began to work.

With the enchanting smoke, the storehouse where the turret is located was soon vacuumed.

A few centimeter thick ”steel plates”, under the movement of mechanical cantilever, were slowly placed in the slot 500 meters in front of the electromagnetic gun tower, and stacked upright into a steel wall. However, this is not over. When the steel plates were stacked to a thickness of more than five meters, a concrete wall with a thickness of more than ten meters was raised behind the row of steel plates.

After all, the scale of the whole vacuum laboratory is limited, and the maximum can only test 500 meters. However, for weapons used in space, there is no big difference between 500m and 5km. After all, there is no air resistance in the universe, so kinetic energy attenuation is not necessary.

The gun barrel swayed to the five meter thick ”steel plate”. The capacitor in the turret began to charge, and even the faint blue arc could be seen from the muzzle of the gun barrel.

When everything is ready, Ling Tao looks at Jiang Chen, smiles, respectfully makes a gesture of invitation to the touchpad, and says.

”Just press the red launch button.”

According to Ling Tao's suggestion, Jiang Chen stepped forward two steps, looked at the turret inside the wall, and pressed the red button.

There is no sign.

The blue arc flashed suddenly, and the dazzling white light flashed away. The 50 kg mass bomb hit the steel plate at the same time, accompanied by the tremor of the earth and the roar from the bottom of the feet.

“……”

Simple words can't describe the shock in Jiang Chen's heart.

Almost as soon as he regained consciousness, a fracture as thick as a thigh was engraved on the steel plate, and this steel wall made of dozens of steel plates has been blasted into a ”V” shape with side openings.

As for the concrete behind the steel, half of it was shattered

Because I've seen it many times, Ling Tao doesn't have much reaction.

”The maximum barrel can fire a 50 kg mass projectile. Theoretically, the firing rate can reach nine rounds per minute. Is it necessary to test the next round?”

”No, I've seen the power.” Jiang chendao shakes his head.

”OK”

nodded, and Ling Tao went forward and nodded several times on the touch panel. After the overflowing electric energy in the high-energy capacitor of the turret was released slowly, he immediately turned off the power supply of the turret. That dark blue arc light also with dim down, finally disappeared.

After a long time, Jiang Chen finished his silence and said with great emotion: -- Now I'm thinking, if you put this thing in the Pacific Ocean, which warship can resist it

”No warship can carry this kind of turret,” Ling Tao thought his boss had such a plan, so he quickly explained to him, ”now the electromagnetic guns on the guard level are strong enough, and no armor of any kind of warship can eat a gun and still be safe --”

”I know,” Jiang Chen waved his hand, ”I just talk about it. How can I really take it The cannons are going to kill mosquitoes

Looking at the turret, Jiang Chen stopped for a moment and continued to ask, ”how much is the cost of such a turret?”

”Ignoring the R & D costs, this prototype costs about S $1 billion.”

S $1 billion!
