Chapter 451 (1/2)
At present, the lowest cost way to occupy the air supremacy is hot-air balloons, but using hot-air balloons to fight is obviously a joke.
Not to mention its poor carrying capacity, slow moving speed and slow control mode, these two points have completely limited the military use of hot-air balloons.
The one that really works is the Skybreaker that croto made.
However, the Skybreaker is obviously a semi-finished product. In Donne's mind, the best air control weapons are supersonic fighters and high-altitude bombers. The former is extremely fast and difficult to defend, and the latter is located at an altitude of thousands of meters. General attack methods can't affect them at all.
In addition, high-altitude bombers can also have variants. High altitude transport aircraft can transport a large number of soldiers to the rear of the theater for encirclement warfare. This mobility is much faster than the current marching mode.
But now there are many technical limitations to realize these things, and only Mithril universal alloy can barely meet the requirements. Take off can be realized by controlling the anti gravity magic array, and the power can be realized by the wind power magic engine. In other words, the wind power magic engine was inspired by the turbojet engine from the beginning, This is a return to its original function.
Just want to integrate these technologies, there are still many problems.
The most important point is that under supersonic conditions, ordinary drivers can't bear this acceleration at all, so they must be apocalyptic, so the number is very rare.
On the other hand, how to fight at supersonic speed?
There is no computer and radar here, so we can't lock the target at a long distance. When we see the enemy, I'm afraid the two sides have collided with each other.
The control of weapons also needs computers, or something similar to computers.
Before solving this problem, the plan of the fighter can only be stranded temporarily. The improved dwarf aircraft and helicopter are the best choice at present. They are fully manually controlled, and the speed is neither slow nor fast. They can fight within the sight distance or avoid conventional attacks.
Although Donne also wants to produce his own aircraft, it is very difficult to build an industrial production line from scratch. He doesn't have the energy and need for the time being. He simply cooperates directly with croto and provides technical support to each other.
Computers are more demanding. It is impossible to restore them completely. We can only think of other ways.
Because there were too many situations to consider, Donne put the priority of this matter behind for the time being. After leaving the magic Energy Engineering Research Institute, he returned to the Lord's house.
”... Mr. Gallian, I told you before that this is naked blackmail! We won't agree to pay this bill!”
As soon as he passed the study, Donne heard Fiona's dissatisfied voice. After being stunned for a while, he entered the study and saw Fiona and Gallian confronting each other. At the moment, Gallian is not Gallian, the branch president of the Star Diamond bank, but Gallian, an arms dealer with a cigar in his mouth.
”However, dear Fiona, you must admit that my people and weapons have played a great role in resisting the animal tide. If I hadn't recklessly consumed a lot of valuable goods, Ellington would have been completely destroyed by the animal tide.”
Gallian vomited a thick smoke ring, and Fiona frowned. Fortunately, it was an ornament. There was only a smell of fruit, otherwise she would have driven him out.
”The situation was urgent, so I didn't discuss it with you. I had only one idea: keep Ellington at all costs!”
Gallian said solemnly, ”I did it, so it's natural for me to ask for compensation!”
”But we didn't buy those bombs from you at all! You and master croto were angry and took them out to compare!”
What Fiona can't stand most is this. It's obviously the result of the fight between goblins and dwarfs. Why should Lord Ellington's house pay instead?
Kloto got Donne's technical support, so he didn't say anything, but Gallian, a cheeky guy, came directly to the businessmen to deliver the bill - the fourth time in half a month!
It seems that there is no result this time. He is going to stay.
Don couldn't help asking, ”what's the matter, your highness Gallian?”
”Lord!”
Fiona and Gallian spoke at the same time. Gallian immediately filled his face with a smile: ”thank God, you finally appeared today.”
Donne has been busy recently. He has been free to rest these two days. No wonder Gallian feels so sad.
”Lord, your highness Gallian has sent a bill.”
”Bill?”
”Yes, about the arms bill consumed in resisting the animal tide.”
Fiona took a swipe from the corner of her mouth and handed a bill to Donne: ”look.”
Donne took the bill and scanned it. Suddenly, he took a swipe at the corners of his mouth and said, ”your ability to take advantage of the fire is really perfect, your highness Gallian.”
”No, no, no, you're wrong. If you want to take advantage of the fire, I won't pass you the bill at this time.”
