The biggest problem of the Fourth Civilization is the huge gap between it and the Galactic Republic. Now they really need such a talent to integrate their economic system with that of the Republic, so as to reap the last dividend before the war.
.
Saimid's joining is a timely help.
Tang Xiao is not worried about Semed's disloyal intentions, because there is no place for him in the vast galaxy. As soon as he shows up, he will immediately attract endless pursuit from the Interstellar Banking Association.
Saimid's only choice is to stay in the fourth group, and he should also understand his situation. If he cannot show enough value, then Tang Xiao will definitely 'dispose' of him without hesitation, and give him
Hego-Damask II sells a good one.
Thinking of this, Tang Xiao's mood improved a lot. He came to the porthole and looked around the mothership. Now the surroundings of the mothership were a lot more lively, with a large number of transport ships shuttled through the gas giant planet's mining station, which had been expanded to five.
between.
There are also a large number of transport ships constantly traveling between the Dawn Planet and the mothership. After expansion and construction, they now have more than 20 transport ships, and there are already 100 mining transport ships that can only fly in the universe.
Two huge umbrella-shaped space research modules with a diameter of more than 200 meters float around the mothership, captured by the mothership's own gravity, and move slowly in a synchronous orbit with the mothership. These are the Institute of Physics and the Research Institute of Mechanical Engineering respectively.
Place.
Among them, the Engineering Research Institute has added many ancillary modules, which are even larger in size. You can also see a 30-meter-long spacecraft docked outside the Engineering Research Institute. This spacecraft is equipped with two large turrets, which looks a bit strange.
Match.
On the other side are two interstellar docks, one of which is under construction and has not yet been completed. This is a small interstellar dock used by frigate-class spacecraft. The rectangular assembly factory is about 100 meters long. Next to it are more than ten engineering cantilevers in the dock area.
Fixing the unfinished spacecraft, judging from the coverage of these cantilevers, it should be possible to build a frigate with a length of no more than 50 meters.
This is also the size of a standard light frigate——
According to the standards of the Fourth Civilization, aircraft under 15 meters are called light fighters;
Aircraft between 15 and 30 meters are called heavy fighter aircraft;
An aircraft of 30 to 50 meters is called a corvette;
50 to 80 meters are heavy frigates;
80 to 150 meters is a light destroyer;
150 meters to 300 meters are heavy destroyers;
300 meters to 500 meters is a light cruiser;
500 meters to 1000 meters is a heavy cruiser;
Above 1,000 meters is a battleship, and there are more types of battleships, such as aircraft carriers, battleships, battlecruisers, etc.
Now in the completed shipyard, a spaceship that is almost identical to the one docked outside the Engineering Research Institute is being assembled, but the size of the turret on this spacecraft is much more normal. The structure of the spacecraft has been completed, and several cantilevers are
The automatic robotic arm is installing heavy outer armor on the spacecraft.
Around the unfinished shipyard, more than a dozen small engineering spacecraft are constantly busy. The construction workers drove the spacecraft to take out the processed equipment parts from the mothership's manufacturing center, and then flew over to install them on the shipyard. It seems that this
The dock will take several more days to complete.
Tang Xiao nodded, picked up the communicator and connected to the research room. The person who answered the call was Dr. Qu Xuewen. She bowed slightly to Tang Xiao and then asked: "How can I help you? Manager."
Tang Xiao asked directly: "Has the research on the Hammer-class frigate been completed now?"
Qu Xuewen nodded and replied: "Yes, the research was completed two days ago, when you were still on Dawn Planet. Because Qi Jian was pressing hard, we started production immediately."
"By the way, the frigate parked outside your research institute..."
"Does it look different?" Qu Xuewen laughed, "This frigate is the first Hammer-class frigate we built. The turrets on it are two turbolaser turrets, which we collected from previous attacks.
Relatively complete items obtained from the wreckage of three bounty hunter spacecraft. It would be too wasteful to install them on a transport ship, so Professor Chi is leading us to make some modifications, and then find a way to install the turbo laser turret on the frigate."
"Can I come and visit?"
"Yes, manager. I will report to Professor Chi immediately and make arrangements."
Taking the transport ship to the Engineering Research Center, this was Tang Xiao's first time here. Before, he had only been to the engineering laboratory set up inside the mothership.
The current research center built in space is much more compact, but the equipment inside is denser and more advanced.
Tang Xiao also saw that a medium-sized blue outer laser cannon was being tested in a laboratory. A laser cannon more than 4 meters long was set up on a frame, with dense wires and pipes behind it. As the technician gave the order
, the laser cannon fires a blue laser beam that is not dazzling and shines on a target set in outer space.
However, the laser beam only irradiated the target for less than 1 second, and suddenly billowing smoke and sparks flashed from the pipeline behind it. The technicians quickly stopped the experiment, and several people in protective clothing rushed away with fire extinguishers.
Go in and spray the pipes.
Qu Xuewen came forward, she followed Tang Xiao's gaze, smiled and said: "This is the prototype of the out-of-blue laser that Guan Yan sent from the physics laboratory. It has been tested three times today.
.However, although out-of-blue lasers are much more powerful than infrared lasers, and suffer less interference due to their shorter wavelengths and thus have a longer range, our current weapon platforms are not sufficient to use this advanced laser."
She walked over and looked at the laser cannon that was already covered with fire-extinguishing foam. She shook her head and said to a technician next to her: "This prototype is no longer usable. Give the data receipt to Dr. Guan Yan. Tell her about the energy conversion relay.
The parameters of the generator are too high. If we want our current energy supply equipment to be usable, we need to lower the parameters by at least 5%."
"Another 5% reduction? Dr. Guan will definitely curse when he hears this..." The technician wiped away a cold sweat.
"Then let her curse. Anyway, it's the street that's being scolded, not me." Qu Xuewen smoothed his hair and said disapprovingly, "I'll leave this to you. I need to accompany the manager to Professor Chi."
"Ah? Manager! Hello manager!" The technician saw Tang Xiao's presence and bowed quickly.
Tang Xiao nodded in return, and then accompanied by Qu Xuewen, he visited the research center and walked to the other side. Along the way, Qu Xuewen introduced the research projects and facilities here to Tang Xiao in a very talkative manner. She obviously and Tang Xiao
The kind of female doctor in my impression is completely different. She has no social anxiety at all. On the contrary, she talks a lot.
