Structural strength is something that is a sacred book for a poor student, a daily homework for a top student, something that needs to be thought about with fingernails for Kaitian, but for Li Xinyi, it can be solved by intuition.
While listening to the conversation between the wise man and Chu Jungui, the girl twirled her hair with her fingers, then held a pen in her remaining hand and drew a starship on the screen. This is a starship with a round head and a round head.
, it’s just a sketch, but it still has a lot of charm.
Li Ruobai also came over. Recently, he was so confident in starship design that he felt he could have a say.
"This little thing is quite beautiful. Did you draw it?"
"Well, our new transport ship." The girl replied casually while applying shadow lines.
"I just recently found a very easy-to-use starship appearance optimization software that can beautify the appearance of a starship according to the aesthetics of any major country. As long as you add one set, even a 300-year-old ship can be transformed into the latest version.
The star stream of style!”
The girl rolled her eyes at him, "I'm designing a starship, I don't need beauty!"
Li Ruobai didn't believe it, "Isn't this a work of art?"
"You think everyone is the same as you, only doing appearance kits!" the girl said angrily.
Li Ruobai let out a haha and said: "If this wasn't a work of art, I would... I would..."
The girl's eyes suddenly lit up: "What do you want??"
Under the girl's piercing gaze, Li Ruobai finally had the nerve to take back his words. He thought for a moment and said, "Send you the latest limited edition personal chip?"
Only then was the girl satisfied. She pulled out a central axis of the ship and wrote the number 220 meters. Then she pulled out the diameter: 100 meters. Then she turned the design around and filled in various data, and in a blink of an eye she
In no time, the sketch turned into a design with dense data.
The girl threw the design drawing to Chu Jungui and said: "New transport ship! The one-time transport capacity is 120,000 tons, and it can go back and forth three times a day. Is it enough?"
Of course it is enough. This transport ship is several times the existing transport capacity. However, Chu Jun was a little greedy when returning it: "Can it be bigger?"
"Yes, but the safety redundancy is not enough. If you want to make it bigger, you still need to use new materials. The structural design has reached its peak."
As the girl spoke, she casually drew out a new ship. This time the new ship was a little longer and slender. Although it still looked like a sketch, Li Ruobai, who had just output a chip, no longer dared to speak. Then
The limited edition chip itself is worth about 30 million, and because it is a special limited edition, the first-hand price has reached 70 million, and the second-hand price is as high as 98 million. Although Li Ruobai has been rich recently, he cannot afford to lose two in a row.
chip.
Chu Jungui looked at the girl's new starship and asked, "What are the requirements for this?"
"Two new anti-gravity engines need to be added, not the ones we use now. In addition, the main structure must use a special alloy. The formula is not difficult to find, but the elements are scarce, so three synthetic elements are needed. Well, Special Operations Department
The elements are included in the batch given to you, and the amount used per ship is not large, just a few hundred kilograms."
"Where's the transport capacity?"
"300,000 tons."
This is what Chu Jungui wants. However, the first ship designed by the girl is obviously more cost-effective. Most of the parts can be produced on Planet 4, the materials are all ready-made, and the construction period is still short. As for the issue of transportation volume
, it would be nice to build a few more ships.
The bottlenecks now facing Chu Jungui are first, computing power, second, rare elements, and third, advanced equipment. Once these three things are solved, Lightyear's development will advance by leaps and bounds. The problem is that the normal procurement channels of both the dynasty and the federation are
Being blocked, what should I do?
Chu Jungui suddenly remembered what Evans said, why spend money when you can solve it with a starship?
So Chu Jungui took stock of the starships in his hands. So far, Chu Jungui has been able to use a total of 18 destroyers plus a Titan with 5% progress. There are still 4 destroyers under construction in the dock. Now
The number of starships is not the problem, the problem is that the number of crews cannot keep up.
Chu Jungui was a little hesitant whether to put the construction of the light cruiser on the agenda. Lightyear is currently seriously lacking mature starship designers. Li Xinyi is indeed a genius, but the time and energy of a genius are also limited. Most of her designs are unconstrained.
It is full of amazing elements, but the detail optimization is very inadequate, and can even be said to be very poor. Chu Jungui knows that she cannot be blamed for this. Those mature engineers often work with several pieces of equipment or even one piece of equipment in their lifetime.
When several parts are involved, the degree of detail polishing is naturally different.
However, once the technology is updated, such engineers often find that they are old and can no longer keep up with the development of new technologies. They are eliminated from front-line positions and can only make a living in backward star areas where backward equipment still exists.
Lightyear's light cruiser design drawings currently have at least hundreds of flaws, and some are even blank. The overall completion level has not reached 85%, which is the level where it can be driven. Although the light cruiser is only one circle larger, it has many features.
The design of the place has been completely different. The girl is busy with the design of Titan, and has not put much energy here. Lightyear's own starship designers were all captured by the legion, and they were basically monks halfway. Their original title was maintenance engineer
.It is really difficult to expect these people to design high-quality starships.
Although the original destroyers were built randomly and rushed to the battlefield, the situation now is different from that then. The squirrel riding the cannon was a solution when the poverty was extremely poor, and it could only be used by Chu Jungui himself, so Li Ruobai could control it.
It's very difficult to get up, and ordinary pilots can't control it at all. Now the light-year destroyer construction level has actually matured, and the comprehensive capabilities are comparable to the current standard starships of the Dynasty and the Federation. In this case, should we build a light cruiser?
It is also difficult to judge Chu Jungui.
After careful consideration, Chu Jungui decided to build four destroyers first, and the light cruisers could wait. Among the hundreds of technologies currently being developed, more than 100 are related to light cruisers. When all these technologies are broken through, the light cruisers can
The completion rate can exceed 90%: this is at least a starship within the standard. The hull within the standard coupled with the terrifying firepower and strong defense of Lightyear, the battlefield performance can be expected.
The four new destroyers were all improved by Li Ruobai. Although he still displayed his true qualities as a starship painter, this time the design made Chu Jungui feel that these four starships would be of great use on the battlefield.
At this moment, Chu Jungui received a message: the special envoy from the 4th Fleet had arrived. It was said that he directly represented Su Jian himself and was waiting outside the starship.
