Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

In the laboratory, Chen Xinzheng and Qin Lan watched this laser weapon test together.

After the researchers who came to Chen Xin told him that the laser weapon had made a breakthrough, he and Qin Lan came to the laboratory together, and in order to show him the research results, the scientific research team prepared this experiment.

In front of Chen Xin was the same laser weapon he had seen before, but apparently some improvements had been made.

And 20 meters in front of it is a new combat sub-body carapace as a target.

"Get started, let me see what breakthroughs you have made." After speaking, Chen Xin motioned the researcher on the side to start testing.

"The fourth experimental laser irradiation weapon, the third damage test, the target combat sub-body carapace, the purpose of the experiment is to test the damage effect of the laser irradiation weapon on alien creatures." It is still the researcher responsible for reporting the scene when Chen Xinlai was watching the test last time. After finishing the experimental project, he did not ask Chen Xin again this time, so he said loudly: "The experiment begins!"

With that, another researcher pressed the button on the console.

It is slightly different from the scene Chen Xin saw last time. Although a laser beam is also shining on the target this time, this time it is not ablation, but almost a second or two after the laser is irradiated. , There was an explosion on the carapace that was the target, but the explosion was very small, only blasting a hole in the carapace and splitting it in half.

This made Chen Xin involuntarily raised his eyebrows, and looked at the researcher aside with a little surprise: "How did you do this?"

"We changed our thinking." Faced with Chen Xin's surprise, the project team leader explained to Chen Xin: "Before, we have always used continuous laser to continuously irradiate the target, and use thermal damage to achieve the goal of melting and destroying the material. , This is also our main research direction before, that is, using laser weapons to counter low and slow targets.

But what you said to us last time, Academician Chen, especially the metaphor of drying the sea, made us realize that our research direction needs to be adjusted. What we have to deal with is not a slow and small aircraft, but a huge body and a fast moving speed. , And an alien creature with a strong defense.

Therefore, we replaced the original continuous laser with a pulsed laser. At first, we planned to use high-power density laser irradiation to achieve the effect of laser cutting. However, in the experiment, we found that the pulsed laser will produce considerable kinetic energy impact at a certain frequency, so The machine was adjusted and the kinetic energy impact generated by the high-frequency laser was used to damage the target.

This kind of adjustment is not easy, but fortunately, we have done some research in this area before. After several trial adjustments, we have the test machine that Academician Chen you see now. The effect is pretty good at present. "

After listening to the explanations of the scientific researchers, Chen Xin nodded clearly.

It’s no wonder that the project team came up with a new experimental model so quickly. It used to have researched in this area. Now, relying on the performance of the door, it has this laser that is already very impressive in Chen Xin’s eyes. arms.

Although in Chen Xin's opinion this laser weapon is still a long way from being put into practical use on the battlefield, on the whole, it is already a promising laser weapon.

It only takes some more time to research and improve, and it can be installed in the army.

"The results you have achieved this time are very good, and this laser weapon is also very promising, but my advice to you is not to give up the previous research." Chen Xin affirmed the results of the project team, but also felt that they There is no need to give up the previous research.

Although the laser weapon was not powerful enough and the damage effect was not good enough in the last test, it is also a scientific research route that is worth investing in research and development.

"Academician, please rest assured that we have not given up on continuous laser research. It is just that our research team is not equipped with enough staff to carry out research on two topics at the same time, so we have concentrated our staff on pulsed laser research." The team leader explained to Chen Xin that the previous research was also the result of their hard work, and the research has not failed, so naturally they will not give up casually.

Even if it does not have practical value, it will be reserved for technical accumulation, not to mention that it is a research project with the same prospects.

Hearing the group leader's words, Chen Xin nodded in satisfaction.

Although he had been upset about the development of new weapons before, now after Qin Lan's comfort and watching a successful experiment, he has resolved the irritation in his heart.

This made Chen Xin feel relieved, and he was about to go back to start his work again, but Qin Lan on the side grabbed him.

"Alan, what's the matter?" Chen Xin was a little strange, not understanding why Qin Lan was holding him.

"Aren't you researching new weapons? Isn't this kind of laser weapon!" Qin Lan said to Chen Xin in a low voice, emotionally slightly excited: "I have fought in an underground cave environment before. This kind of laser weapon is comparable to a live ammunition weapon. Easy to use!"

Hearing Qin Lan's words, Chen Xin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted.

Yes, laser weapons are indeed very suitable for use in underground spaces. They are non-physical weapons. Naturally, there is no problem of ricocheting caused by live ammunition weapons.

As for the question of insufficient power or excessive power, this is not a problem for Chen Xin.

After all, laser weapons are energy weapons. The output power can be controlled by adjustment. There is no such thing as missiles or artillery shells that the explosive power of fixed ammunition is fixed and uncontrollable.

Moreover, the size of this laser weapon is not large, and it can be mounted on the Bobcat assault vehicle that Chen Xin was optimistic about before, and used as a mobile laser launch platform to provide fire support for troops in underground caves.

Thinking of this, Chen Xin was also excited. He hugged Qin Lan abruptly, and after kissing her on the face, he asked the researchers on the side excitedly: "How long can you build another laser like this? arms?"

"Um, this..." The researcher was a little overwhelmed by Chen Xin's sudden excitement, but quickly replied: "If there are enough raw materials, it will take about three days to install and debug. The technology is all Mature, just assemble the parts. Now with 3D printing equipment, it is very convenient to produce these parts."

Hearing what the researcher said, Chen Xin nodded very satisfied, and said to him: "Then please make another laser weapon like this... No, two. Make one of the previous one. Give you five. Is there enough time in a few days? Tell me what is missing and I will solve it."

"Enough." The researcher replied affirmatively.
