Volume Four, Volume 20, Chapter 136, Using Weapons against the Protoss(2/2)

"What? Are you jealous?" I turned my head and looked at Ryan and asked. As I said before, our bank will only focus on technological success, so effective large-scale projects can often obtain more development funds. For example, this spacecraft developed with the Iron Empire technology is definitely a forced accumulation of funds from many departments, otherwise it would be impossible to build so quickly.

Ryan didn't say anything when he asked me, but just glanced at me and said, "When my artificial soul is finished, you will still allocate funds to me. What am I afraid of?"

"Then you don't go to work hard for your funding. I'm going up and checking out the situation there, bye." After saying goodbye to Ryan, I flapped my wings and flew up, but what surprised me was that a circle of nearly transparent light curtains suddenly lit up on the side of the spacecraft above. As a result, I flew up completely and hit the protective cover. If it weren't for the distance that was too close and the speed had not been raised, I would probably have to hit my nose crookedly. "Damn, why do I have a protective cover?"

"Even if such a large spacecraft can move, it is too easy to be hit, so we directly used the city-level protective cover from Russia last time. How about it? Is the effect good?" Norene's voice appeared directly in my ears, but I didn't see anyone at all.

"Nolin, where are you? Why can't I see you?"

"I was on the boat and I just used the sound wave cannon on the boat as a loudspeaker. How about it? This kind of cannon is quite fun, right?"

"You have to let me go up first to play!"

"You stupid, you are the president, just use permission to open the channel. Although it has not been completed, it is the city protective cover of our guild after all!"

I was so dizzy that I actually forgot this. I slapped my head and directly turned on the president's authority. A gap that just enough for me to pass was immediately opened on the protective cover in front. After I flew in, the gap immediately closed.

After passing through the protective cover, I quickly arrived on the ship. When I got closer, I found that this thing was much more hit than what I saw below. The warships I saw in the Iron Empire before, and the spaceships were simply children's toys. Not to mention comparing this ship, even the water warships in our guild were hit hundreds of times more than them, but compared with the thing in front of us, our own warships had to stand aside.

Noreen saw me coming up and walked to me, and then directly introduced: "The ban's trial-made air carrier has an undetermined level. The tentative number is ss-1. The total length is 1,228 meters, the widest is 378 meters, the total height is 308 meters, and the estimated empty weight is 458,000 tons. The main power is the Iron Empire. Atlantis jointly developed an experimental strong energy propulsion engine, with a maximum output thrust of 187,000 tons per unit. The experimental model is pre-installed with three thrusters, and the thrust-weight ratio can reach 1.22. How about it? Is it tough enough?"

I was completely shocked by Norene's introduction. The total length is more than 1,000 meters! It's longer than the total length of the warship. The height is scary enough, and the gap from the top to the bottom makes me catch up with the skyscraper. Of course, the most scary thing is the weight and propulsion ability. The weight part is obviously lightweight materials, because of such a large volume, if you use standard warship steel, the weight will have to increase at least 70,000 to 80,000 tons. As for the thruster, I don't know

How can I say that? One machine has thrust of 187,000 tons! If this thing is placed directly on the ground and a fairing on the top can fly out of the earth directly, right? As for the thrust-weight ratio, 1.22 does not seem very high. But you should know that the thrust-weight ratio of mainstream fighter jets in various countries in the world is only between 1.8 and 2 (Zero is not a 21st century game, so please don’t tell me that there are no aircraft with thrust-weight ratios as high as those of thrust-weight ratios).

No matter what, the data given by Noreen just made me stunned. Looking at the wide deck around, as long as I don’t look back, I would never have thought that this was in the air. After all, such a large area can be compared with many small airports.

I looked up from the bottom and felt that the bottom of the spacecraft looked like a warship that was turned upside down, but when I looked at it, you would find that it looked like a landing ship. The middle position of this guy's hull was clearly two cross-type take-off decks that crossed together. Because the take-off deck was arranged obliquely, even if it did not extend to the bow, its single deck length reached an astonishing 1,200 meters. This length was enough for most aircraft to take off. Moreover, this x-shaped deck was still on the spacecraft, so it didn't matter that even if the aircraft ran through this length, it didn't matter that it could not fly. Anyway, after the deck reached its end, it could use the gravity potential energy during the fall, unless this thing could not fly at all, no matter how bad the flight performance was, it would be able to achieve sufficient take-off speed before landing.

Although the two decks cross in an x-shaped shape, when you look down from above, you will find that the top of the ship is actually a six-fork shape. Two of the two are obliquely oriented, while the one that is horizontal is the command tower.

The command tower of this thing is not placed on the side of the hull like an aircraft carrier, and of course it is not arranged in a longitudinal axis structure like a general warship, but rather a rather rare cross-bridge structure. Yes, it is like a large bridge, spanning the entire deck, so I said that the top structure of this thing looks like a landing ship, because many landing ships have such a structure.

This command tower, which looks like a gantry crane, has an A-shaped support structure on both sides of the deck. There is a wide deck between the apexes of the two a, and the command tower is on this horizontal deck. The advantage of this design is that it saves space and allows the command tower to have a good command vision, so that it can easily command the aircraft on the deck to take off and land. However, the disadvantage is that the command tower structure is too fragile. If the support frame is destroyed, the command tower will easily fall down. Of course, we also have countermeasures, and this spacecraft has no plan to let her carry the shells at all. So the structure is enough as long as it passes. Of course, in addition to being fragile, the wind resistance of the horizontal command tower is also slightly larger. Although a flat streamlined design has been adopted as much as possible, such a large thing is crossing, and the wind resistance cannot be as small as it is.

Because the x-type take-off deck and the elevated command tower are used, there are still many spare places on the upper deck, but these places are not empty now, but are almost filled with things. Among them, the triangle area sandwiched at the stern of the boat is the lifting platform. Its main function is to provide up and down movement paths for aircraft that require runways, and it can also directly release vertical take-off and landing aircraft. For example, the maneuvering angel of our guild.

In addition to the lower triangle area of ​​x, the two triangle areas on the left and right are entire turrets, but this turret is not a direct-fired cannon. It is a mortar-like cannon. This is mainly used to assist the turret at the bottom of the spacecraft to attack the targets below the hull, which means that these cannons are basically used for bombing. So you can also think of it as a bomb projector. As for the x-angle area on the bow of the ship, this is the largest area, but it is not a whole piece, but divided into many functional areas. The front position close to the bow of the ship is equipped with a large energy weapon, which is the last time we got it back from Ryan.

The things that have been improved by the rail gun technology, but now they can not only fire physical pills, but also energy bombs. They are also extremely powerful, but unfortunately I am not willing to use them. You also know that the power of energy shells means a lot of energy, and energy does not come out of thin air. They are all converted from magic crystal stones we bought for money? So the cannon fired is actually money, so if it is unnecessary, I have never used this kind of weapon of first-level killing weapon. Just like the system rewarded by Aisinger, it is okay to knock down a city at a time. The premise is that you can afford magic crystal stones.

Behind the super weapons that are truly super weapons that kill gods and Buddhas, are piles of functional buildings. These include city-level defense field generators, energy circulation systems, accompanying aircraft control centers, mirage system control centers and other functional facilities.

These functional facilities are very important, but they cannot be placed inside the hull, so they have to be placed in this position. Because this is the most difficult position to be shot. After all, there are a row of super cannons that no one dares to touch at the bow, so the enemy will attack from the front unless they are so smart. In this way, the bow is the safest. As for when we actively aim at the enemy and fire, this can basically be ignored, because this spacecraft is not an assault ship, and we can't let her fly to the vicinity of the enemy. Even so, it must be that we have completely grasped the initiative in the battlefield. At this time, she flies over and is mainly responsible for crushing the enemy's final will to resist.

Although there are so many things on the deck, under the introduction of Noreen, as I gradually visited the entire hull, I realized that the real weapons of the ship were all at the bottom of the ship.

Generally, warships like to install weapons on the deck because there are no weapons available underwater. You can't install hundreds of torpedo launchers on the ship, right? So ordinary warships can only put weapons on the deck. However, the ss-1 is a search spacecraft. Not only will it not be flooded by water, but it has a good shooting range. Therefore, we integrated the weapon system at the bottom of the spacecraft. The result of this design is that the bottom of the entire ship almost becomes a hedgehog. Although it doesn't seem to be obvious now, this is mainly because the weapons at the bottom of the spacecraft adopt a hidden design, that is, when the spacecraft does not need to fight, we can put all the weapons at the bottom into the hull and use armor to close the shell to have lower air resistance. At the same time, this design also has another purpose, that is, the ss-1 does actually have surface navigation capabilities, which means that it can actually be used as an ordinary ship.

Although the future SS-1 may have surface navigation capabilities, its bottom is still full of holes. Some of the diverse weapon systems are stretched out and some are stuck in half, while others are completely hidden. Anyway, various weapons are messy, and temporary energy conduits are dragged in many places. This is mainly a pipe for maintenance equipment. It will be removed after the hull is assembled, so that the hull will look much more refreshing.

"It turns out that I searched a very good spaceship." After visiting the external structure of the spaceship, I asked Noreen about the buoyancy of the spaceship. As a spaceship, the ss-1 must require buoyancy. In reality, the buoyancy of the aircraft is mostly derived from the buoyancy of the air, but the ss-1 obviously does not have such conditions. She has no airbags, and no suitable aerodynamic structure, let alone she is still in a stationary state. In reality, there are not many aircraft that can really hover vertically except helicopters. Moreover, the ss-1 is still so steady, just like stopping on the ground, without any swaying. However, this characteristic reminds me of the gravity resistance device we bought from the Iron Crusader before. The thing cannot be horizontally displaced as soon as it is started, so as long as it is equipped, don't say that you don't want to shake it, even if you want to shake it, it can't shake it horizontally.

As soon as I spoke out about the power system, Noreen pushed open the door in front of me. "I knew you would ask this, so I took you here in advance."

"Is this..." When the door opened, I was completely shocked by everything in front of me, because not only was the room super large, but there was a small sun floating in the center. Yes, it was the small sun. This thing looked like a fireball. Although it was violent, it seemed to be restricted by nearby equipment. It was trying to break through these equipment that limited it, but no matter how it crashed, it just bounced back to its original place again. "What the hell is this?"

"This is an exposed magic converter." Jiaha's voice suddenly came out of the room. I realized that there were many people around me. The management of the guild who had left me to run away were here. The reason I didn't see it before was entirely because the thing in front of me was so shocking. If no one explained it, I really thought it was a little sun.
