Chapter 398 The Storm Is Coming
After hanging up the phone with Wang Weimin, Chu Yang continued to type in the laboratory.
And while the assembly work is going on.
Chu Yang also asked Xuanwu to compile a project information and sent it directly to Wang Weimin's mailbox.
Inside the office.
Less than ten minutes before or after Wang Weimin hung up the phone, he received a message from Chu Yang in his internal private mailbox.
Seeing this scene, he immediately clicked his tongue: "This brat, couldn't he just wait for this phone call from me and just hang up the phone and send me the information?"
But then, he quickly put on his reading glasses.
After taking a sip of the freshly brewed wolfberry and chrysanthemum tea, he squinted his eyes and read carefully: "Detailed project application form for the meteorological satellite (Sky Punishment Project)..."
When I saw this line of text.
With a "pop", Wang Weimin spit out the wolfberry and chrysanthemum tea that he had just drank before he could swallow it. The corners of his mouth twitched crazily, and his eyelids kept moving.
Space-based weapons!
This guy actually wants to research space-based weapons!
As long as you are a researcher in the field of national defense.
Basically no one is unfamiliar with these four words.
Space-based weapons, as the name suggests, are launched through ground launch vehicles or spacecrafts, sending weapons-grade satellites or space stations into geosynchronous orbit, and using such weapons to launch vertical attacks on targets in the atmosphere in geosynchronous orbit.
Strike, weapons with this type of operation mode are collectively called space-based weapons.
Space-based weapons are also a new concept weapon system that has been proposed for many years.
currently known in world history.
The only country that may have space-based weapons is the beautiful country on the other side of the ocean.
They started the deployment ten years ago, and it is expected that it will take ten to fifteen years to develop their own space-based weapon system.
He even had a cool-sounding name - "The Power of God!"
Theoretically, there are actually three types of space-based weapons.
The first is a space-based laser satellite.
Used to attack deep targets in enemy countries and attack satellites of other countries.
Due to the light speed characteristics and extremely low energy scattering of lasers, lasers are very suitable for accurately striking high-value targets on the ground.
In a sense, using this kind of space-based weapon can easily kill the president of an enemy country without harming the bodyguards around him.
at the same time.
Space-based laser weapons will be the first barrier to ballistic missile defense in the future.
Also the best choice!
As long as the power is strong enough, it can even block all enemy missile launches!
The second type is projectile space-based weapons.
That is the "Rod of God" space-based kinetic energy weapon system that the beautiful country wants to deploy.
The principle is to throw dense metal substances directly to the earth's surface outside the atmosphere, and the powerful impact will produce considerable power.
This type of weapon can effectively attack enemies and facilities buried deep in underground bunkers.
Especially suitable for decapitation operations. Cooperate with ground troops to complete assassination and subversion missions.
However, due to limitations in speed and delivery method, this type of weapon cannot hit moving targets.
The last type is the moon base.
Its properties and characteristics are consistent with those of space-based laser satellites.
However, because the space on the moon is large enough, very, very large laser weapons can be built.
Therefore, this type of space-based weapon was once a strategic-level scientific research project. Once completed, it can become a new strategic commanding height and a new strategic-level deterrent weapon!
but.
For China now, this can only be a plan!
If you want to build a similar space-based weapons base on the moon, it will be difficult to break through both the technical difficulty and the international fishing boats!
The only one that has been practiced.
There is only a second type of projectile space-based weapon.
He even participated in related project seminars back then!
However, after two years of this project, it was discontinued.
Because, through their continuous research and design, and various analysis of data, the final conclusion is that China currently does not have the ability to research space-based weapons.
Otherwise, the situation may be the same as the current controllable nuclear fusion technology, which requires a lot of national power!
Although it sounds like the research principle of space-based weapons is actually not difficult, it is very possible to develop it with the current technology on earth.
Because projectile space-based weapon systems generally use solid alloys with extremely high ignition points and high temperature resistance to create projectiles.
Their original idea was to use metal rods made of tungsten, titanium and other alloys.
Preload multiple such metal rods into weapons satellites and space stations with automatic loading systems in advance.
After being launched into geosynchronous orbit, these live ammunition metal rods are launched at enemy targets in the atmosphere.
And relying on the gravitational acceleration of it falling from the geosynchronous orbit to the ground in one fell swoop, it forms a powerful high-speed impact kinetic energy to destroy enemy targets.
Theoretically speaking.
Each tungsten alloy rod is 6.1x0.3 meters in size and weighs 9 tons.
Taking into account the dual effects of gravity acceleration and air resistance, the maximum speed when it hits the ground is about Mach 10.
Combining this velocity data and converting the impact kinetic energy into TNT equivalent, the final result is that the final power of a tungsten alloy rod is approximately equivalent to the explosion equivalent of 12 tons of TNT.
Say it in simpler terms.
The power of a tungsten alloy rod is at least as powerful as 8 DF21s equipped with conventional warheads!
[Note: DF21 is a conventional warhead for domestic land-based medium-range missiles with a single weight of one ton. 】
However, this time the problem arises.
Although space-based weapons sound like a strategic-level space weapon system!
However, take the situation where a general space-based weapon is loaded with ten "tungsten rods".
The cost of transporting a total of 10 6.1x0.3 meter, single 9-ton tungsten alloy rods into space is much higher than that of 10, or even 100 or 200 DF21 medium-range ballistic missiles.
higher.
Let's talk less.
Want to really complete this project.
At the very least, it will cost hundreds of billions of dollars.
A low value for money.
Moreover, although this thing sounds awesome, it is basically not of much use.
More than one country in the world has satellites in space.
It has the ability to launch satellites into space, and naturally it also has the ability to launch missiles. It can be said that it is easy to destroy this kind of projection-type space-based weapon system.
So.
It is for these reasons that China gave up its research on space-based weapons!
This thing.
It can be said that it is useless to eat and it is a pity to discard it!
...
Soon, after reading most of the project information, Wang Weimin planned to take off his reading glasses, rub his tired eyes, and persuade Chu Yang to give up.
Even if he believed that Chu Yang could develop space-based weapons.
But judging from the current international situation, space-based weapons do not have much effect!
However, just after he unconsciously glanced at the content below, he suddenly quickly put on his reading glasses and continued to read with a serious expression: "This weather satellite, in addition to being able to carry astronomical equipment,
In addition to the weapon-based system, it is also equipped with another monitoring system, whose research theoretical basis is..."
Until all the information is read.
Wang Weimin couldn't help but make an action that promoted "global warming".
This brat.
This is going to cause trouble!
Sure enough, those people had no choice but to attack Lin Qingxue.
Chapter completed!
