Chapter 2606: An underwater weapon tailor-made for the Marine Corps
Through Zhang Xiaolei's introduction, everyone present had a preliminary understanding of the basic situation of this underwater special warfare mechanical exoskeleton protective armor, especially its protective capabilities.
Although after listening to this introduction, the special operations team members and officers from the army and air force naturally took a whiff of it, but did not take a fancy to it at all. This is because the protective performance of this underwater special warfare mechanical exoskeleton armor is basically
It is not comparable to the regular version of mechanical exoskeleton protective armor used by the Army and Air Force, let alone the special version and the heavy mechanical exoskeleton protective armor used by the Army.
This kind is too thin and can be penetrated in just a few hits on the battlefield. In their opinion, this thing has no protective power at all.
But for the officers and special operations personnel of the Navy, this underwater special operations mechanical exoskeleton protective armor is simply tailor-made for them, no, it is tailor-made.
The army and air force are a bunch of landlubbers, so they can understand the pain of their navy. They don't know if Haoyu Technology's mechanical exoskeleton protective armor is good, but they can't use it because it is too heavy and too heavy.
There is no way. Although the Air Force also pays attention to lightness, the main combat operations of the airborne troops and Air Force Special Forces are still on land. The Marine Corps and Special Forces, although they are also on land, still have the need to take into account maritime operations.
This kind of mechanical exoskeleton protective armor is very good, but they can only be used in combat, such as many amphibious operations and underwater combat missions, and are not used at all. Sometimes these exoskeletons are even used for safety reasons.
Armor can only be changed when approaching islands and land.
However, the advantages and strengths of the Marine Corps and Special Forces cannot be fully utilized due to weight restrictions.
Therefore, the Navy has more than once expressed the hope to Wu Hao and others to develop a lightweight mechanical exoskeleton protective armor specifically for the Navy, but progress has been slow. The reason is that the Navy requires that it be lightweight and capable of sneaking in the water, while also having to
It is necessary to ensure the protective performance of the entire mechanical exoskeleton.
Such a requirement really makes the entire R&D team feel embarrassed, because usually, the protective performance of armor has a great relationship with its own weight. The heavier the weight, the better the protective performance. I have never seen any light thing with good protective performance.
of.
But this time, Wu Hao and the others broke this iron rule and made a piece of cloth-like material able to block the impact of bullets and have excellent bulletproof properties.
This is like making their dreams become a reality all of a sudden, how can they not be happy?
Noticing the excitement of the naval officers and special operations team members, Zhang Xiaolei smiled and continued to introduce.
"Is this enough? No, this is not what we want.
Since it is developed for the Marine Corps and Special Forces, we should develop it in a targeted manner based on the combat characteristics of the Marine Corps.
Just like the mechanical exoskeleton support and assist system on this underwater special operations mechanical exoskeleton protective armor, we have redesigned it specifically for the marine and underwater combat environment, focusing on solving a series of technical problems. For example
The entire system is waterproof in marine and underwater environments.
This is not the IP68 waterproof level advertised by those digital products, but the military-grade waterproof standard. Therefore, we replaced many metal materials that are prone to oxidation and corrosion on the entire exoskeleton support system with polymers with higher strength.
composite materials, and carbon fiber materials.
In some places where metal components are needed, stainless steel is used that is more resistant to corrosion and oxidation, and electroplating is also performed on the surface of these metals to give it better resistance to corrosion and oxidation."
"Taking into account the need for underwater submersion, this time our underwater special warfare mechanical exoskeleton protective armor has prepared a more lightweight and flexible support system.
Wearing it, our Marines can still swim underwater, and their feet can swing freely and flexibly.
And in order to save the physical strength of our special operations team members, we can program this set of underwater special operations mechanical exoskeleton protective armor for underwater swimming, allowing the mechanical exoskeleton to be carried to assist our special operations forces in carrying out underwater flippers.
swing.
In addition, if we use the fins specially prepared for this set of underwater special warfare mechanical exoskeleton protective armor, our underwater frogmen can move forward without swinging their feet and legs. The fins can swing forward by themselves.
.
Of course, if necessary, the propulsion system on this underwater special warfare mechanical exoskeleton protective armor can also be activated, thereby promoting our special warfare to travel quickly underwater.
However, water jet propellers will emit bubbles and noise, so using a power-carrying method and automatic fins to swing the water can greatly reduce the noise of the frogman when sneaking underwater and avoid being detected by the enemy's underwater monitoring equipment."
After hearing Zhang Xiaolei's introduction, the navy applauded one after another. Seeing this, others also applauded and then looked at the navy.
For the navy personnel, Zhang Xiaolei's introduction made them very excited, and it can be said that it was full of surprises. Haoyu Industry not only considers portability, but also attaches great importance to protective capabilities. And as for this, it can also target
Due to their long-term dealings with marine waters, anti-corrosion and anti-oxidation non-metallic materials are used as much as possible. Even metal materials are treated with anti-rust treatment, which is rare.
And considering that they have been fighting in the water for a long time, the water release performance of the entire equipment has also been focused on improving to ensure that the entire equipment can operate normally underwater.
In addition, what surprised them even more was that they also considered their inability to swim underwater and arranged a variety of propulsion modes for them.
The first is of course the simplest and most conventional method, using thrusters to carry the frogmen forward. But this time, Haoyu Industry actually installed the thrusters on the entire set of underwater special warfare machinery exoskeleton protective armor.
In this way, land combatants do not need to hold the propeller or move with anyone underwater. One person can move freely alone, thus having high maneuverability underwater, which is very useful for underwater combat.
important.
When you are in contact with the enemy alone, you can rush forward and retreat calmly. After hitting the target with one hit, you can run away. It is basically impossible for the enemy to pursue you.
And by virtue of the propellers equipped on the protective armor of the underwater special warfare mechanical exoskeleton, it can deal with the enemy very flexibly and calmly underwater, and control the enemy in the palm of its hand.
What's more, with the blessing of this set of protective armor, the enemy's underwater weapons have basically lost their effect, thus becoming the target of complete abuse.
