I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World Chapter 917: Magnetic confinement and plasma
Remember [novelmao.com] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
In the warehouse of Camp 27, a barrel of approximately seven or eight meters long is connected to a turret of more than ten square meters, and a hydraulic triangle bracket is connected to the middle of the barrel. Except at first glance, this cannon seems to have “no more growth” except that the barrel is long enough, but this is not the case.
The long and narrow barrel will not fire any physical projectiles. Instead, it will be magnetically confined by a plasma with a central temperature of up to tens of millions of degrees. After the plasma bound by the magnetic field hits the target, it will rely on its own thermal energy to penetrate the metal armor of the target, and at the same time release the electrical energy condensed in the plasma instantly, destroying the soft target and electronic equipment in the armor unit.
In short, this is a large plasma gun. There are similarities and differences between the Wanderer’s 52-type particle gun, but there are many differences in details. However, whether it is a particle gun or a plasma gun, it can be regarded as a well-deserved “tank killer” at medium and close distances!
Speaking of this, this large plasma gun can be completed, thanks to Lin Ling ’s research on antimatter technology. The magnetic restraint device used to wrap antimatter can also be used to wrap plasma. Researchers at Camp No. 27 are based on Lin Ling ’s research results and made further derivations to solve the problem of delays after the magnetic confinement body was disengaged from the device.
After solving this problem, the magnetic confinement body covered with high temperature plasma can be “shot” as a projectile projectile!
Researchers at Camp 27 explained the technical connotation to Jiang Chen, and immediately entered the weapons testing stage under Jiang Chen ’s order. Several staff members loaded the running tower onto the truck and checked it into the shooting range.
As the research project leader Zou Rong came to the shooting range, Jiang Chen stood behind a bulletproof glass.
Jiang Chen massively shot the turret in the shooting range, reached out and knocked on the bulletproof glass, and then asked Zou Rong casually.
“Why use black glass?”
“The projectiles fired by the shells will be quite dazzling. The use of dark glass is mainly to protect your eyes.” Zou Rong explained to Jiang Chen with a smile.
Weapon testing begins!
After receiving the order, a NAC soldier stepped forward and connected the wire behind the turret to the tablet terminal, skillfully setting the shooting parameters. On the other side of the shooting range, an A-shaped steel plate with a thickness of 200 mm was raised on the open ground about 800 meters away from the turret.
Zou Rong ordered that the soldier standing ten meters behind the turret immediately pressed the shooting button.
With a dazzling white light, the plasma gun suddenly ejected the energy projectile bound by the magnetic field. Even in the daytime, the bright white plasma is still dazzling to the extent that it is difficult to look directly at.
The energy projectile is in contact with the steel, and there is almost no knocking impact. Out of the shackles of the magnetic field, the constrained high-temperature plasma, like a bridle horse, gushing out from that narrow space, almost no suspense fused through the steel with a thickness of nearly 200mm!
A dazzling blue arc flashing behind the armor spreads like a cobweb and instantly penetrates into the ground …
Standing behind the ink glass, witnessing this amazing scene, Jiang Chen slightly opened his eyes slightly, and the expression on his face gradually changed from shock to excitement.
Zhou Rong puffed up the corner of his mouth with pride and noticed the expression on Marshal’s face.
“In the atmosphere, this plasma projectile maintains a stable state for a short time, so this tentatively named RK-1 plasma gun has a maximum range of only 800 meters. However, as you can see, the power The armored unit’s killing is quite amazing. Once it is hit, let alone a wanderer, even a pan-Asian cooperative destroyer must be burned out. “
The gun was fired after approaching 800 meters. As long as it hit the body, it could turn the almost impeccable wanderer into a pile of scrap iron. It may be a bit reluctant to reach a distance of 800 meters on the plain, but in urban terrain, the 800 meters of combat distance is almost normal.
Jiang Chen was also skeptical about the “technology that will change the direction of war” before, but when he saw this RK-1 plasma gun projectile, he melted through 200mm steel armor without suspense. I have firmly believed this at the moment.
“What is the approximate cost of producing this plasma gun?” Jiang Chen asked Zou Rong.
“Under the conditions of the same production scale, the production cost of this RK-1 is about three times that of the fifty-type electromagnetic gun.”
Jiang Chen nodded. This cost is within the acceptable range of NAC. Generally speaking, cost and production difficulty are also positively related. He doesn’t care how much money and materials he spends, but if he wants the Second Division to install this weapon in this war, he must complete the production work in the shortest time.
Without any hesitation, Jiang Chen immediately found Wang Qing and ordered her to start organizing the production of RK-1 weapons. At present, the industrial level of the Sixth Block has begun to take shape. The key high-energy capacitors, electromagnetic generating devices, particle acceleration tracks and other parts can be outsourced to private factories by placing orders.
In order to be able to carry this RK-1 plasma gun, engineers at Camp 27 also modified the body of the Tiger II to some extent. While reducing the thickness of the armor and increasing the output power of the engine, the turret was redesigned.
Due to the difficulty of accelerating the particles, the RK-1 barrel design is very long. According to the original turret design, the barrel will be several meters beyond the body, and the center of gravity of the entire tank will also be moved to the front.
The engineers at Camp 27 boldly canceled the turret design directly, or the entire turret was sunk into the carriage and designed as a turretless tank destroyer. This design is obviously not in line with the historical trend, but it is the most suitable design for the situation facing the Second Division.
Anyway, there is only one chance to fire a gun. If you do n’t hit, you will basically not have a chance to fire a second gun. The particle guns on the opposite side are the same for tanks without energy shields, regardless of whether they are fired in front armor or side armor, so the presence or absence of a turret does not make much difference to it.
The retro-styled tank is named Longbowman I. It plans to produce 120 vehicles. It is expected that 20 vehicles will be sent to Wushi in 10 days to replace Tiger II, which has no effect on prowlers.
However, in the eyes of most people, this plan is undoubtedly somewhat whimsical, such as the Zhao Group, which has contracted 70% of the plan ’s production tasks.
Although he coveted the profits from the order of hundreds of tanks, Zhao Chenwu knew that this was almost an impossible task. In this wasteland, not all problems can be solved with “money”.
Zhao Chenwu followed Jiang Chen on the way out of the community center of Yubujiu Base, and he complained to him about the difficulty, trying to persuade the marshal of the “Great Joy” to reduce the number of orders.
“We do n’t have so many resources at all. If we want to complete all of these orders, we need tens of thousands of tons of steel and aluminum, and countless chromium, nickel, and other rare earth metals. Even if we sold out the entire sixth block Market, we can’t make it up — “
Squeak–!
Without any explanation, Jiang Chen pushed open the door of the fish bone base warehouse. Incandescent lamps on the ceiling light up in sequence, illuminating the entire warehouse space.
The unfinished words choked in the throat, and Zhao Chenwu stared blankly at the warehouse.
The piles of ore piled up in the warehouse into hills, and the reflected light blinded his eyes. At this moment, he could not think about where these ores came from. He just wanted to pinch his arms to confirm whether he was dreaming …
Turning around, Jiang Chen looked at Zhao Chenwu, who was stunned, and shrugged.
“You may need some trucks.” (To be continued.)
