What is the range of this electromagnetic gun? Luo Kai asked while holding the basic electromagnetic rifle in his hand and trying to aim.
When Wu Hao heard this question, he smiled and shook his head and said: "Traditional firearms rely on the size of the bullet and the amount of powder to determine the range of the bullet. The range difference between the same type of bullets on different firearms is actually very small. This is mainly because
Because the length of the barrel of these firearms has a certain impact on the range. The longer the barrel, the longer the bullet is stressed in the chamber, and the range will be farther. The shorter the barrel, the faster the bullet exits the chamber.
The reception time in the gun chamber is short, and the firing range is slightly shorter, but the overall difference is actually not too big.
But for our electromagnetic gun family, the range of different electromagnetic guns naturally has a big difference. Simply put, the longer the barrel, the farther the range will naturally be.
The bullets used by these guns are actually the same, but the barrel lengths of different electromagnetic guns are very different. The longest among them is the precision shooter rifle I have, which uses a long barrel, so
The longer the electromagnetic drive device inside, the longer the bullet's afterburning time, the faster the exit speed, and the longer the range.
Like the electromagnetic precision shooter rifle I have, its range can reach about two thousand meters, which is almost the limit of the shooting distance of small-caliber bullets. Usually, there are only large-caliber 12.7 heavy machine guns, but with large-caliber sniper rifle bullets
That's why I have such a range.
Our small-caliber bullet can achieve such a distance, and its effective range is about 1,200 meters.
The basic model like the one you are holding has a range of about 1,400 meters and an effective range of 800 meters. This range has exceeded many sniper rifles.
As for this carbine short-barreled model, its range is relatively short, only about 800 meters, and its effective range is only about 400 meters.
As for this submachine gun, because it adopts a short-barreled design, its range is about 400 meters, and its effective range is about 200 meters.
As for this kind of pistol, its shooting range can reach two hundred meters, and its effective shooting range can reach one hundred meters.
This last machine gun model actually uses a heavy barrel, and its range is comparable to that of a precision marksman rifle.
Comparing the actual range and effective range of these gun models, they all have a much longer range than traditional rifles. This means that within the same distance as traditional rifles, their ballistic trajectories are straighter, the bullets have a faster muzzle velocity, and they are affected by
The environmental impact is smaller, so it is naturally more accurate."
"What is the rate of fire of this electromagnetic gun? Can it be fired continuously? Or does it need time to store electricity before firing again?" Pang Zhengqing couldn't help but ask.
Wu Hao smiled and shook his head, and then responded: "It can achieve continuous launch without accumulating force. Because it uses electromagnetic propulsion technology, it can basically achieve no time gap, as long as power and ammunition can be supplied in time.
However, in summary, its rate of fire is not low. The maximum rate of fire can reach about 800 rounds per minute, and the lowest continuous rate of fire can reach about 200 rounds.
There is an adjustment switch on our firearm, which can adjust the firing rate of the firearm to meet the needs of actual combat."
Hearing Wu Hao's answer, Luo Kai and Pang Zhengqing both nodded with satisfaction. They did not need to accumulate power and could fire continuously. This was great and exceeded their expectations.
You must know that electromagnetic weapons consume very much power, and usually need to store electricity before they can be launched. Under normal circumstances, the electricity is stored in a large capacitor or a flyon generator. When it is necessary to launch, the capacitor or the flyon generator is quickly used.
The Lun generator thus delivers a large amount of electricity instantly, so that the warhead can be pushed out at ultra-high speed.
This is also the reason why an electromagnetic gun requires so much supporting equipment. The electromagnetic gun is not large in size, but there are many equipment and facilities needed to support the electromagnetic gun.
However, Wu Hao and the others were able to integrate such a complex system into a firearm. One has to marvel at their powerful scientific research capabilities.
Especially since this gun can fire continuously without charging any energy, this is incredible.
"How is this possible? Doesn't the general electromagnetic gun need a certain amount of time to accumulate energy?" Pang Zhengqing still showed an expression of disbelief and asked Wu Hao curiously.
Wu Hao smiled, then pointed at the back half of the Gunslinger and said: "There is a supercapacitor system inside, which can achieve the powerful function of storing electricity and discharging it quickly.
Traditional capacitors need to store electricity slowly first, and then discharge it all at once or in several batches when it is full. But they are all one-way, that is to say, intelligent storage or discharge, and the two cannot be performed at the same time.
.
To use an analogy, this is like thinking of a water cup. Fetching and pouring water cannot be done at the same time.
Our supercapacitor bank, or supercapacitor system, perfectly solves this problem. It can store electricity quickly and discharge it quickly, and it can also store electricity and discharge it at the same time.
The entire supercapacitor system is divided into several small capacitors, which are arranged together, and each capacitor is an electrical storage device.
This is equivalent to having many water cups at once, so that we can use these water cups to rotate and save water while pouring water.
The electric energy stored in a small capacitor can fire a bullet, and so many small capacitors can fire many bullets together. And these capacitors can store electricity quickly, so when all the capacitors in the entire system are rotated, the earliest
The batch of capacitors used have already been fully charged, and the cycle continues, realizing the function of charging and discharging at the same time.
Therefore, when using it, you cannot feel the process of it storing electricity.
Of course, it also has a disadvantage or shortcoming, that is, after each restart, a two-minute warm-up preparation is required to store power for these supercapacitor systems.
So under normal circumstances, the entire electromagnetic gun is in a charged state, so it can be fired at any time."
This problem is nothing in normal times, but it would be too fatal in wartime. The battery is out of power while the battery is being used. You still need to wait for two minutes after replacing the battery. I am afraid that in these two minutes, the enemy will have already attacked.
Luo Kai couldn't help but complain after hearing his introduction.
In response to Luo Kai's complaint, Wu Hao smiled and said: "No, it is only needed when it is turned on again after being inoperable for a long time. It is not needed at other times including replacing the battery. The capacitor itself is full of electricity, so it can be seen as
It is a kind of battery, so after changing the battery, you can continue to charge the capacitor, and there is no need to warm up the engine."
