Chapter 883 - The Technology of Area 51 (1/2)

With a faint clunking sound, the iron door was gently pushed open.

Jiang Chen stepped into the file room and looked around.

In addition to a row of file racks, at the end of the file racks were two closet-sized servers. Seeing the two servers at the end, Jiang Chen was suddenly ecstatic. It would completely exhaust him if he had to flip through every single document in the room, but if they backed up the data on electronic devices, regardless how secure their server was, Jiang Chen could dig the data out eventually!

He could even trace and find something else!

Restraining the excitement in his head, Jiang Chen asked knowingly, “Jean, can you infiltrate these two machines?”

“That’s easy,” Jean said calmly, still in an emotionless tone.

Pulling out the adjustable data cable from the arm, Jiang Chen found the interface on the servers and inserted the data cable. Soon, the screen of the tactical helmet flashed several reading windows. Jean integrated the computing resources of both the watch and the kinetic skeleton and quickly infiltrated the firewall built by security experts.

In fact, during the infiltration process, Jean simply didn’t encounter any strong resistance. Even the most skilled hackers wouldn’t break into computers that aren’t connected to the Internet. Similarly, if the computer wasn’t connected to the Internet at all, then it was naturally not necessary to frequently update the firewall.

Area 51 was such an exclusive military zone that is independent of the outside world. There wasn’t even one kilobyte of data exchange between the Internet and the Intranet here. Naturally, there would be no so-called network security problems.

As for whether there would be any hackers who could sneak inside?

The soldiers at Area 51 weren’t worried at all.

Dozens and dozens of Soviet spies were captured there.

Just the sensors spread out all over the military base were enough to make it difficult to even advance an inch for those who wanted to approach it illegally.

Jiang Chen patiently waited to read the article and watched the data stream flashing through.

The downloading speed was increased to the maximum. Jean copied all the confidential files stored on the server. To artificial intelligence of the 22nd century, the firewall installed on these two machines was simply child’s play.

Half an hour later, all the data were quietly fragmented into 0s and 1s and disappeared into the tactical helmet screen.

“Complete.”

Jean used her unemotional tone and declared the outcome of this silent battle.

Jiang Chen didn’t stop to rest and immediately opened the ten terabyte of compressed file that Jean downloaded onto the memory card. To review these documents with human effort would take at least one to two months to categorize the documents. However, for an artifical intelligence, all documents were sorted out in less than a minute.

In these projects, Jiang Chen saw many shocking things.

Document Number: 10020

Record Name: RQ-180 Drone Improvement

Development Direction: Improve the cruising ability, strengthen the cruising speed, and enhance the ability to defend against EMP weapons…

Development Budget: One illion US Dollars.

Content: …

A strange expression gradually appeared on Jiang Chen’s face as he skimmed the information in the document,

It seemed that the EMP did scare the UA. He looked at more than a dozen projects, and all of them specifically stated improvements against EMP. For example, reducing the size of electronic components of key equipment as much as possible to reduce the high temperature generated by electromagnetic pulses, or even sacrificing a small amount of stealth and agility to apply a specific metal coating to form a Faraday cage on the fighters.

With limited scientific and technological conditions, these methods were somewhat effective. However, even the researchers in Area 51 didn’t find a good solution for the EMP’s attacks on the grid, civilian facilities, and factories.

However, the Capital already established this project and allocated a budget of five billion US Dollars to study how to defend against EMP on the soil.

In addition, Area 51 seemed to be studying a small four-rotor attack drone. This drone shape was similar to Future Group’s Beta-3, but at the bottom were hanging muzzles and magazines. At present, this type of drone had already entered the testing phase. Researchers in Area 51 were determining ways to eliminate rotor noise and wanted to design AIs that could automatically identify friendly and enemy targets.
