Chapter five hundred and eighty seventh son of the dragon
The combat mecha is a combat power multiplier for extraordinary beings.
The world's top big and powerful countries such as Daxia, America, Iroh, and Europe, as well as secondary powers such as Indy, Tisland, Feisen, and Japan, have invested a lot of manpower in this field.
Material resources to form the future mobile armor army.
This invisible arms race began ten years ago.
There is no doubt about the practicality of fighting mechas. After an F-level enhanced transcendent is equipped with a fighting mech, he can completely crush his E-level or even D-level counterparts, and his combat effectiveness will be even more powerful in large-scale battles.
So far, relying on the creative capabilities of technological extraordinary people, combat armor projects in various countries have become mature, and many parts and accessories can be put into actual combat use. The only thing that restricts the explosion of combat armor technology is the core power part.
Once the motivation is solved, there will be no obstacles.
The field of high-energy power is precisely Daxia's weakness. Even if there are a large number of technological extraordinary people, without sufficient technological foundation and accumulation, it is impossible for black technology to suddenly burst out.
Now seeing that both America and Iroh have made breakthrough progress in this area, Daxia's senior officials are naturally restless.
America and Europe are allies, and there are long-term technical exchanges between the two sides. Once America officially installs combat mechas, Europe will definitely receive corresponding support soon-even if it is a castrated version.
Daxia and Yiluo also have a mutual aid alliance, but Yiluo is no less prepared for Daxia than it is for Europe. Moreover, the Yiluo people are greedy. If you want to obtain their power technology, you must pay an extremely high price.
The people of Daxia are used to being self-reliant. Unless they have no choice, purchasing Yiluo technology is the last choice.
"I want to see our armor."
As a member of Daxia, Zuo Yi of the lawful camp is willing to contribute to the country. However, although he has some ideas, he must not speak freely before seeing the actual armor.
"no problem."
Wu Yongjian was well prepared and immediately took Zuo Yi to the secret laboratory in the underground base of the Supervision Bureau.
Daxia's battle armor project was codenamed "Son of the Dragon" and was extremely secretive. Except for Wu Yongjian and Lu Guang who participated in the project, Qin Qin was not qualified to enter the battle armor laboratory.
On the test bench in the underground laboratory, Zuo Yi saw two combat mechas filled with various cables.
"This is Yaju type 1..."
Lu Guang pointed to the silver-red painted battle armor on the right and said: "The main battle armor!"
Then he pointed to another dark green armor next to him that was larger in size and had thicker armor and introduced: "This is the Baxia Type 1, an auxiliary combat armor."
The "Dragon Son" project is led by the Daxia Cabinet, with the Daxia National Defense Force and Xia Chaolian as the main research and development forces, and the three major laboratories of the Imperial Capital, Shanghai and Jiangnan Supervision Bureau are jointly participating.
When the "Dragon Son" project was first established, two different models were identified to meet different combat needs.
As of now, the completion rate of the first-generation Yajuan 1 aircraft has reached 89.7%, and the completion rate of the first-generation Baxia 1 aircraft is 92.5%. They are all stuck on the power core, especially the Baxia 1 aircraft. As long as it is equipped with qualified power
package, it can be installed directly.
Without strong power, they are just useless products!
Zuo Yi noticed that there was a square metal package mounted on the back of both Yajuan 1 and Baxia 1.
"This is a high-energy fuel package..."
Lu Guang noticed Zuo Yi's gaze and explained: "Limited to its size, its battery life is very poor."
High-energy fuel packs are the source of energy for the Warframe's engines.
The first-generation aircraft of the Yajuan 1 and Basia 1 are both equipped with six micro-ion engines. If they are only used to assist in combat, the reserves in the fuel packs are sufficient. However, once they take off and fly, they are seriously insufficient.
The current fuel package is only enough to support the flight of the first-generation Yaju 1 aircraft for more than half an hour. If the altitude and speed are increased, the time will be greatly shortened.
The larger and heavier Basia Type 1 is even worse.
The biggest problem is that such a large high-energy fuel package is too easy to be targeted by the enemy. Even if it is covered with armor, it is still a fatal weakness.
Moreover, the armor of the fuel pack is thickened, which affects the battery life. It is simply an unsolvable bug.
In contrast, America's Titan Armor and Iroh's Warrior Armor do not have similar problems. Their power cores are obviously placed inside the armor, making them technologically superior!
After listening to Lu Guang's introduction, Zuo Yi touched his chin and asked: "If the fuel pack is removed, can it still be used?"
"OK."
Lu Guang replied without hesitation: "The fuel pack is a modular plug-in standard part. We have previously considered technical factors, so we also designed a battery pack."
Battery packs are much thinner than fuel packs, are heavier and have better defense, and will not catch fire or explode if penetrated by ammunition.
The problem is that the battery pack cannot drive the ion engine, so after replacement, the armor loses its ability to fly and can only supply energy to the built-in electronic system and firepower system, at best serving as auxiliary power.
In this way, the mobility of the armor is greatly reduced, and the combat effectiveness is also much weaker. It can be used, but don't expect to compete with the opponent.
"Then replace the battery pack..."
Zuo Yi said with great interest: "Let me try Yaizhan Type 1."
If someone else made such a request, it would definitely not work. You must know that the "Dragon Son" project is extremely classified. In the entire Jiangnan Supervision Bureau, only Lu Guang, who is in charge of the project, can get started directly, and Wu Yongjian does not use the equipment.
Permissions.
But Zuo Yi's authority is completely sufficient.
Lu Guang immediately directed the laboratory staff to remove the test equipment of the first-generation Yaju 1 aircraft, then disassembled the high-energy fuel pack and replaced it with a thin battery pack.
This armor has a high degree of redundancy in design. Unless the user's body shape is very special, most people can equip it and use it, and Zuo Yi is no exception.
With Lu Guang's help, Zuo Yi quickly equipped himself with the Yaju Type 1.
Due to technology limitations, combat mechas are far less powerful than Iron Man's suits in comics and movies, but they have many similarities in terms of functions. The Yaju 1 is equipped with advanced intelligent control systems and fire control systems, and has very good control performance.
Under the guidance of the intelligent armor system, Zuo Yi easily mastered its basic usage, and then conducted the first test in the test field next door.
From starting to running, to melee combat and long-range weapon attacks, it only took more than half an hour. Zuo Yi had already mastered the Yajuan Type 1 to the point where he could use his arms and fingers like an arm.
