Doomsday Bunker Upgrade Chapter 472: Energy Crystal

Train guns may indeed have been very powerful battlefield support weapons during World War II, but after nearly a century of technology booming after World War II, the technology mastered by human beings has already undergone earth-shaking changes.

The district train gun is like a large target in front of the missiles, rockets, bombers, and even more sci-fi space-based weapons equipped by the modern army.

In terms of the military equipment mastered by the modern army, if you want to dismantle a train gun that was considered a weapon during World War II, you only need two armed helicopters.

So although the Suvian Land Cruiser does look very powerful and scary, in fact, this thing is already an obsolete product of history.

In fact, after this thing was actually built, Suvia's executives realized that it was not practical, so Suvia's executives soon gave up the idea of ​​mass production.

Otherwise, with the madness of the Soviet Union and the Federation during the Cold War at that time, after the successful development of this big killer carrying two 305 thick pipes, there is no reason for the Suvians not to equip them on a large scale.

As for the Suvians that cannot be built so much, imagine that their tank production plan was in units of 10,000 vehicles, and a little production plan was allocated from it to build a hundred and eighty such land cruisers. As far as the industrial strength of Suvia is concerned, there is absolutely no problem.

But the Suvians did not choose to mass-produce the Land Cruiser, and even only built two experimental machines and one mass-produced model and sealed these things in a secret military base in Siberia, and never used it again.

It takes a lot of resources and time investment, and the final product is manufactured, but it is directly sealed, which is really a wasteful practice.

However, in the Cold War era, it was not unimaginable that a technology invested a lot of resources in research, only to find that the results had become out of date. It is a common thing in armament research.

Especially after World War II, the rapid development of military technology has made many military equipment outdated.

It's just that some of them can be used just fine, while others can only be discarded and sealed.

And it is not that the Suvians did not consider using these three land cruisers. When the relationship between the Yan Kingdom and Suvia was the worst, and even border conflicts broke out, the Suvians considered using them just now. The three preserved monsters participated in the border conflict.

However, due to the long distance, the three Land Cruisers cannot be transported by train, and can only travel to the conflict area by their own power, which takes too long.

And it was only a border conflict at the time. Although the two sides used force, they still maintained restraint and did not break out a full-scale conflict. Although the Suvians did consider using this thing, they finally gave up such an idea.

This matter has also become a dusty archive, left unnoticed for half a century.

Until this time, in order to obtain the assistance of the Yan Kingdom, the Lucian people took out all their sealed possessions, and then found out the records of this matter from the dusty Suvia filing cabinet. .

Also let Yan Guo know that in the border conflict that year, the Suvians actually planned to use such a powerful weapon.

Fortunately, this is all in the past. Suvia has been disintegrated for more than 30 years. It doesn't mean anything when it comes out now. It just made Yan Guo interested in these three land cruisers. That's it.

As for why the three Land Cruisers were brought back, it's really not as simple as converting them into all-terrain vehicles as stated in the document.

While the higher-ups do plan to ship the three Land Cruisers back and convert them into all-terrain vehicles, there is a deeper purpose beyond that.

The three Land Cruisers used nuclear reactors as the source of electricity. In terms of Suvia's nuclear technology at the time, this was indeed something that could be done. After all, they had built something like a mobile nuclear power plant at that time. It was only later abandoned due to the Qicheng incident.

However, through the unsealed top-secret information, Chen Xin learned that the Suvians only used the nuclear reactor on the second test machine and the mass-produced model. As for the power source of the first prototype, the Suvia Humans do not use nuclear reactors.

Instead, they used an energy crystal accidentally obtained by the Suvians, and this is the real purpose of Chen Xin's trip to Siberia this time.

If you can get the three Land Cruisers back, you can get them. If you can't get them back, do a survey and mapping. If you get the blueprints, you can come back and build a new one yourself. something to get.

It is precisely because of this that the top management sent such a team to Siberia in order to get this energy crystal comparable to a nuclear reactor back.

After all, according to another top-secret information provided by Lucia, the volume of this energy crystal is only the size of a fist, but it can stably output energy equivalent to a small nuclear reactor of that era.

If it weren't for the fact that the scientists in Suvia did not use all means to replicate this thing, and even did not understand the principle and material structure of this thing, it would not be a waste to apply it to the construction of land cruisers.

This also makes Chen Xin very interested in this thing, because it is recorded in the research materials of the Suvians~IndoMTL.com~ Although this crystal is continuously releasing energy, its mass has not decreased. , even if the Suvians used the most sophisticated instruments for measurement and long-term observation, they did not find any change in the quality of this thing.

This is very counterintuitive, because in the process of converting matter into energy, the greater the energy released, the more the mass of the matter is reduced, and the energy is continuously released. In theory, the mass should also be in decreasing.

But this crystal has been studied in the hands of the Suvians for a long time, and it has been releasing energy continuously without any reduction in mass, which is obviously not in line with the laws of physics.

There are two possibilities for this situation. Either the crystal absorbs new substances to supplement itself during the process of releasing energy, forming a cycle; or it is actually a very high-density energy crystal. , has been releasing energy in a "low-power" way. Although energy is released, the mass reduction is too small to be found by the observation methods of the Suvians at that time.

As for what the situation is, Chen Xin can't be sure now. Only after he really gets used to this thing can he judge what it is.

And because of the appearance of this thing, Chen Xin finally became interested in this journey.
