Chapter 1088 1088: War promotes development (first update, there are three updates today!)
Saint Peter and Akara looked at each other, and after receiving each other's support, they began to issue orders.
"Ultramane, if you were asked to form an airborne force and an air defense force, how long would it take you to complete it?"
Ultramane said excitedly: "With weapons and equipment, I can complete the framework within one year and truly form combat effectiveness. It will take two years."
St. Peter nodded, raised his hand and said: "Is the bill on the establishment of the airborne force and air defense force passed?"
This motion went smoothly beyond expectations.
Many members of Congress don't care about the airborne force, but the air defense force must be taken seriously.
With the development of aviation magic troops, the sky has slowly become the new main battlefield. Coupled with this airborne operation, no congressman wants to wake up and see the enemy's airborne troops landing on him like dandelions.
countries and territories.
This is also the great thing about St. Peter's. It tied the two arms together, so that some lawmakers who were unwilling to build airborne troops had to agree.
After all, the newly trained army needs money to spend, it cannot be created out of thin air.
"The voting is over, twenty-one votes passed, three voted no, and three abstained! The motion passed."
"As for the proposal on the development and production of air defense weapons and transport aircraft, I will give everyone three minutes to consider it."
St. Peter immediately proposed a second motion.
This bill aroused discussion among many members, among which those from several major countries were the most excited. They supported the bill very much, but they all said that both scientific research bases and future production bases must be built in their countries.
The huge interests contained in this are enough to make the legislators fight.
Needless to say, anti-aircraft weapons exist to protect the country. However, as a producing country, it can naturally give priority to equipping anti-aircraft weapons.
The benefits contained in transport aircraft are even greater. Transport aircraft are not as good as the aviation magic troops in transporting materials, but they are combat troops, not logistics troops. Once a war breaks out, the aviation magic troops will not have time to serve as logistics transportation troops.
The second is civilian use. The countries under the Magic City are not close to each other, and even many big countries have vast territories. High-level professionals can also use flying to reduce travel time, but what about ordinary people and low- and middle-level professionals?
In the future, a large number of airports will be built all over the Magic City to minimize the distance between cities in the Magic City.
I can't believe how much benefit this contains.
………………
This airborne operation also sounded a wake-up call to the Maxim Empire.
Because of the aviation magic troops, Foer had always had a dispensable attitude towards the development of imperial aircraft. It was not until the battle in the main city of New Weimar that he suddenly woke up.
Immediately issued the order to form an airborne force, increased the production and research and development of aircraft, and also jointly purchased ten Hercules transport aircraft from Blue Star to train the airborne force in advance.
As for the air defense force, the Maxim Empire has never fallen behind. After the development of the aviation magic force, the size of the Maxim Empire's air defense force has been expanding.
With the large-scale purchase of various aviation cannons from Blue Star Alliance, in terms of air defense capabilities, the entire continent is second only to the Melox Empire.
………………
Compared with the two countries that are intensively developing airborne troops and transport aircraft formations, the reaction of the Eastern God Church is half a beat slower. They are still studying the tactical role of the airborne troops. As for the development and research of transport aircraft, they are discrediting it. When it comes to industry,
Strength level.
Eastern Shintoism is the last one, and even according to some teachings, the development of industrial technology is a challenge to the authority of God.
Under this distorted religious thought, as magic technology develops faster and faster, the strength gap between the Eastern God Sect and the other three countries will slowly widen.
………………
When it comes to air defense and air transport capabilities, the Merlox Empire is undoubtedly the number one on the continent, and even the Blue Star Alliance is fearful of it.
Inheriting the Kanglai World Industry and the magic industry developed by itself, in terms of industrial strength alone, the Merlox Empire is not inferior to the Blue Star Alliance, and the weapons and equipment developed are very suitable for the general environment of the Sino Continent.
Compared with Blue Star, which mainly uses missiles as its air defense force, tracking guidance is completely useless on the Xinuo continent, and the missiles can only be used as large long-distance rockets.
Anti-aircraft artillery is the mainstream air defense force in the Sino continent.
The Merlox Empire is most famous for its 88mm FLAK anti-aircraft gun developed under the leadership of Guineaville.
As you can tell from the name, it is an anti-aircraft gun designed based on the German 88 gun of World War II.
This is a very successful medium-caliber anti-aircraft gun, but it is most talked about for its unparalleled anti-tank capabilities.
In addition to being able to fire armor-piercing artillery shells and grenades, there are also high-explosive shells equipped with magic induction fuzes and time fuzes.
The former detonates by sensing magic fluctuations, while the latter causes the shells to explode in front or in the middle of the aircraft's flight, using a large number of shell fragments produced during the explosion to damage the target. It is a very effective means of air defense.
Anti-aircraft shells using these two types of fuzes generally do not need to be aimed directly and only need to be knocked down at a nearby location to produce a barrage that is close to hundreds of meters, causing serious damage to nearby targets.
An 88FLAK anti-aircraft artillery battalion can carry out a saturation strike on an airspace with a diameter of more than ten kilometers. This is why the United Army rarely allows aviation magic troops to be stationed in the base camp during wars.
This time the Outer Continent Joint Council was held, more than forty anti-aircraft artillery battalions were deployed around and in Mero City, with enough firepower to cover the entire Mero City.
Medea looked at the busy city of Merlo, the imperial capital. Merlo Avenue was already lined with imperial flags. An anti-aircraft gun battalion was also deployed around the assembly hall. The 88FLAK anti-aircraft gun stood quietly there, with soldiers neatly guarding the anti-aircraft gun.
Ready to fight at any time.
The construction of the Great Hall has come to an end, and workers are working hard to complete the final decoration. Magic soldiers are even dispatched to assist, just to complete it within the scheduled time.
"Aslan has been playing crazy lately! He doesn't plan to come back yet." Medea said angrily.
If she hadn't been afraid of Sicano, Medea would have killed him long ago and brought Aslan back.
"Teacher! The latest news from Mr. Hathaway."
When Medea was gloomy and uncertain, Malyu's voice sounded.
"Oh, bring it here quickly."
Medea suddenly turned from cloudy to sunny, looking expectantly at the information in Malu's hand.
Hathaway was sent by Medea to monitor Aslan's every move. Hathaway sent information to Medea more frequently than Lancelot, but the two of them used specially refined medicine by Medea.
