Chapter 740 Rules for the Installation of Civilian Spacecraft Weapons
The first is about aerospace aircraft whose length does not exceed 30 meters and whose load does not exceed one thousand tons. This type of aerospace aircraft is only allowed to install conventional weapons with a caliber of less than 30 millimeters and low-power beam energy weapons.
They are gunpowder weapons and beam energy weapons with a power of less than 300,000 kilowatts.
Of course, this is actually the limit of this type of aerospace plane. After all, this type of aerospace plane is just a small civilian aerospace plane. The cannon is fine, and it does not require the energy of the aerospace plane itself. As long as the overall body of the aircraft is strong enough, it will be enough.
Okay, and beam energy weapons require very large amounts of energy. Even today's civilian aerospace aircraft have begun to use controllable nuclear fusion as the energy source for the aircraft. However, the size of this small aerospace aircraft is limited.
, so even the energy generated by controllable nuclear fusion is limited.
The second is the medium-sized aerospace aircraft. The size of this type of aerospace aircraft has a track diameter or a length of less than 60 meters in the rules. This type of aerospace aircraft is only allowed to install ordinary cannons with a caliber of less than 60 millimeters and a power of less than 60 meters.
Beam energy weapons with a power of less than 600,000 kilowatts can also be installed with electromagnetic guns with a caliber of 20 mm and a power of less than 300,000 kilowatts.
Then there are the large aerospace aircraft. According to regulations, the volume and diameter of this type of aerospace aircraft do not exceed one hundred meters. This type of aerospace aircraft is allowed to install ordinary artillery with a caliber of less than 100 millimeters and a power of less than 900,000 kilowatts.
beam energy weapons, and can also be equipped with electromagnetic guns with a caliber of less than 50 mm and a power of no more than 600,000 kilowatts, and can also be equipped with a certain number of missiles and other weapons.
Then there are aerospace planes that are special among aerospace planes, which are heavy-duty aerospace planes with a volume and diameter of more than 100 meters and less than 150 meters. Of course, this kind of aerospace plane is also called a micro spacecraft.
The aerospace aircraft is allowed to install two 150 mm artillery pieces, multiple beam energy weapons with a power of less than 1.5 million kilowatts, and multiple electromagnetic guns with a caliber less than 75 mm and a power not exceeding 1.5 million kilowatts.
Of course, various types of aerospace planes are allowed to install weapons, so various types of spaceships are naturally equipped to install weapons. However, compared with aerospace planes, the weapons of spacecrafts are much more complicated. Not only do they have various types of ordinary weapons and beams
energy weapons, as well as various types of missiles, detector launch systems, drone launch systems, electromagnetic weapon launch systems, etc.
At the same time, in terms of the price of weapons, the weapons of the spaceship are also much more expensive.
Take the small spaceship purchased by Nannan Village and the others, for example. Because their spaceship is a relatively large spacecraft among small spaceships, the length of the spacecraft reaches 290 meters, and it is judged by the federation to be a small spacecraft.
Class spacecraft, so their spacecraft can not only install two ordinary artillery pieces with a diameter of 300 mm, but also can install at least five ordinary artillery pieces with a diameter of 210 mm. In addition, it can also install more than ten ordinary artillery pieces.
Artillery of 100-150 mm, as for artillery below 100 mm and above 20 mm, there are also specific regulations, that is, no more than one hundred, while those below 20 mm are no longer called artillery and are classified as guns.
Therefore, there are no specific quantity regulations. Even if you fill the entire front of the spacecraft, the Federation will not care.
In addition to ordinary gunpowder weapons, there are specific regulations on the number of energy beam weapons, electromagnetic weapons, missile weapons, ship-borne unmanned aerial vehicles or manned aircraft.
Just when Yu Haiming was looking at these new federal regulations, the young people next to him also saw Yu Haiming holding hands with the new federal regulations on the installation of weapons on spacecraft on the virtual screen, so these young people suddenly became excited.
Yes, after all, this is a weapon! The young man didn't like it.
So someone immediately asked Haiming: "Village Chief! Are our spaceships going to be equipped with weapons?"
After listening to the young man's words, the village chief immediately replied: "Of course it must be installed! After all, this is related to our future wealth and life! It is also related to the future of our village. After all, this spaceship has brought together our entire village.
If something happens in the universe due to weapons problems, then we will definitely become the sinners of our village.
It’s just that we have to consider how many weapons to install. After all, these weapons are not cheap! Take the most common artillery as an example. The most expensive 300 mm caliber artillery costs tens of millions per unit, even if it has average performance.
The price of a 210mm cannon is as high as tens of millions, and the price of 210mm artillery is as high as more than five million. The price of good performance is even more outrageous, not to mention energy beam weapons and electromagnetic gun weapons." The village chief said with emotion.
said.
"Yes! These weapons are really expensive. I won't say much about artillery. Even the price of artillery shells is outrageous. Take ordinary artillery shells with a caliber of 300 mm as an example. The price of each one is as high as tens of thousands of yuan.
Above, no wonder everyone says that a cannon is worth ten thousand taels of gold!" the young man next to him also said.
"But! No matter how expensive it is, weapons like this still need to be installed. But for large-caliber artillery like this, I think we should install less first! For example, for a 300mm-caliber artillery, we will install one
It doesn’t matter whether the door is in accordance with the requirements. For example, 210 mm, just have 1-2 doors. As for the 210 mm to 100 mm, especially the ones below 150 mm, we can install a few more doors, and then for beam energy weapons and electromagnetic weapons, I think we
It’s better not to install it, it’s too expensive and consumes too much energy.” At this moment, another young man from their village said.
Just when he finished speaking, the people in his village nodded. After all, only their village knew about their village. They really couldn't afford to install those expensive weapons now. Ordinary artillery was just for them.
It's enough. After all, for them, entering the universe and making money is the most important thing. As for weapons, it's enough to be able to deal with ordinary dangers in the universe. For example, if they are suddenly threatened by an asteroid, then use these
Ordinary weapons are enough.
"Okay! Then for the large-caliber artillery, we will first install one 300mm, two 210mm, and five 150 or 155mm. For the small-caliber artillery, we will install eight 100mm artillery and ten 75mm artillery.
, 12 50mm cannons. As for the installation locations of other weapons on the spacecraft, I think all machine guns below 20mm should be installed first!
After we earn money and replace the loan, we can install other weapons. Moreover, our main mission areas are basically in the inner circle of the solar system. I think these weapons are enough to protect our spacecraft within the solar system.
The circle is safe." Village chief Yu Haiming thought for a while and said.
In fact, when he said that he would install so many weapons, his heart was shaking. After all, the price of these weapons alone did not include the shells, and the total amount was already as high as nearly 20 million. But since their village had already taken out a loan
