Chapter 837: The Combat Artifact of the Mountain Troops
Compared with other guests who felt exoskeleton for the first time, Tang Xiaoqi on the podium had seen it before, so he didn't feel that much surprise.
However, everyone is still very interested in the first time a real person wears this exoskeleton.
The entire display link shows a static display link, with each soldier wearing an exoskeleton displaying his or her exoskeleton equipment at a time.
These exoskeletons are different, but one thing is that they are very flexible and lightweight, and do not have the cumbersome feeling of previous exoskeleton products.
Immediately after the display began, these exoskeletons were displayed. The first one shown was the veteran wearing a half-length exoskeleton.
He first stepped out of the queue and saluted everyone on the podium, and then began to prepare. What he wanted to demonstrate was the super mobility of this half-body exoskeleton.
I saw him moving his legs, and then assuming a preparatory posture before running.
As soon as the starter blew the whistle, the veteran ran forward. The running speed was no less critical than the 100-meter run in the Olympic track and field.
The testing ground was still very large, but the soldier seemed to have reached the end in an instant, then turned and started running towards the obstacles on the outside.
Seeing a sand pit about ten meters long, the veteran jumped up and easily crossed the sand pit, which was about ten meters long, and then continued running forward.
good……
Just when everyone was cheering and applauding, there was about a four-meter high wall in front of the veteran. But the veteran did not slow down and actually jumped at a very fast speed when he was still a few meters away from the high wall.
He stood up, tapped the wall with his foot, and then collapsed easily.
"this……"
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but froze. The previous applause also stopped, and the scene was very quiet.
After seven or eight seconds, the audience burst into applause again, which was even more enthusiastic than before.
Everyone may have seen or understood exoskeletons. But any exoskeleton equipment they have known in the past is not as amazing as the exoskeleton shown today.
First of all, it is flexible. It is so flexible that it seems to grow on the wearer's body. There is no inconvenience for the wearer to move. On the contrary, with the help of the exoskeleton, it becomes extremely fast.
He can be carried faster than a professional 100-meter athlete, can jump farther than a world champion, let alone high jump, and I have never heard of a person who can jump over a four-meter wall in one leap.
Even those who had seen these exoskeletons yesterday were no longer calm after seeing such amazing performances.
"So flexible?" Commander Qi asked in disbelief.
Ahem, Chief Xiao coughed twice, put away his gaffe, and said to Wu Hao: "This is much more shocking than your introduction yesterday. How did you do it? This is too flexible.
, there is no delay or cumbersomeness at all, and there is a feeling of being even more powerful.”
Wu Hao smiled and said: "Actually, it is the five major systems of this exoskeleton that I introduced yesterday, the support system, the transmission assist system, the induction following system, the intelligent control system, and the power supply system.
Especially the induction following system and the transmission main system, the performance of the exoskeleton completely depends on these two functions.
What is an exoskeleton? To put it bluntly, it is an external skeletal support and assistance system for the human body. Its core functions are nothing more than two. One is to provide additional support for the human body and share the pressure on the wearer's lower limbs.
The second is the boosting effect, which allows our wearer's lower limbs to have stronger strength. In this way, when he is running or long jumping, he will have stronger strength than normal people."
"It's easier said than done." Commander Xiao shook his head after hearing what he said.
If it is true as Wu Hao said, then the exoskeleton has been made and equipped with troops long ago. In fact, the exoskeleton is still a laboratory product and is far from being put into practical use.
The products displayed by Wu Hao and others this time are equivalent to pushing exoskeleton equipment into the field of practical application for the first time, and its significance is obviously self-evident.
Of course, compared to its significance, the actual function of this exoskeleton is greater.
Let’s not talk about other exoskeleton products, let’s talk about this half-body exoskeleton, once put into equipment, it will greatly improve the mobility of soldiers. If nothing else, let’s talk about this super obstacle-crossing ability, in some
It can play a great role in extreme combat.
Secondly, there are some long-term combat missions in special fields. This exoskeleton can not only share the pressure on the soldiers' lower limbs, so that they do not feel tired, so that they can walk longer distances. It can also carry more supplies and equipment.
Conducive to long-term combat.
Finally, when encountering some cliffs, rivers, or other obstacles, soldiers can easily pass with the help of this exoskeleton.
"This is simply a combat artifact of the mountain troops!" Commander Tang said with burning eyes as he looked at the half-length exoskeleton on the veteran who had stopped.
"Not only the mountain troops, but also the combat effectiveness of airborne vertical strike operations has been significantly improved." Commander Xiao also affirmed.
As we all know, airborne troops are airdropped into combat zones in most cases. Due to transportation capabilities, many large equipment cannot be airdropped into combat zones.
Even if it was airdropped, there would only be a small number of light armored vehicles.
Therefore, the equipment and materials that soldiers can carry with them are very limited. If this exoskeleton is available, the combat effectiveness of the airborne troops will be qualitatively improved.
"Xiao Wu, how is the battery life of this half-body exoskeleton?" Chief Tang couldn't help but ask him.
Wu Hao smiled and replied: "It is shorter than the heavy-duty exoskeleton, but it can still last for about sixty hours. There is no problem in two days of high-intensity combat.
Moreover, the batteries on these exoskeletons adopt a modular design, which is easy to replace, and also supports hot replacement, which means that the battery can be replaced without shutting down the equipment."
"Two days is enough. In fact, most combat missions will not exceed this time. And judging from the equipment and supplies currently carried by the infantry, they can support such a long period of high-intensity combat." Commander Tang nodded in approval.
Wu Hao continued with a smile: "If necessary, after losing some weight-bearing materials, the wearer can also carry an extra backup battery, which can double the combat time.
Of course, the battery can also be replaced or recharged by airdrop or logistical supply.
Even considering some special circumstances, this exoskeleton also supports fast charging function. Under normal civilian voltage, it only takes two hours to fully charge 80% of the battery."
