"Surprisingly...it's still possible to do this..."

Weapons experts were obviously shocked by Catherine's idea. They had no idea that weapons and armor could be designed in this way.

Different from today's wars, the "power armor" used by this kind of machine gunners will undoubtedly change the wars of the future - as long as this thing can really be manufactured.

In theory, there is no problem at all in listing it.

The principle of hydraulic pressure is used to drive the armor, and the powerful transmission device can accurately transmit the movement to the armor. There is also a fine microcomputer for control inside the machine, and the energy source is a nuclear fission battery...

The only problem lies in the actual technology. For example, nuclear fission batteries are what everyone is researching, but the finished product will not appear until the 1990s, but it has not been put into mass production until the 21st century. From the current point of view, the technology

No matter how rapid the level is, it will be difficult to achieve it within 30 years.

"What a genius design..."

Some people started to sigh.

"Others are easy to say. The problem lies in energy and microcomputers."

Someone raised a question.

"If there is no suitable energy source, this product cannot be put into practical use at all. If it is a microcomputer control system, I think it should not be a problem." - As long as Intel is here, this is indeed not a problem.

"Powered armor is really amazing...but it may be more useful in other situations, such as places where gravity is not so strong...Look, the original design was for space combat..."

"You mean...the moon?"

The other party nodded solemnly.

Yes, both the United States and the Soviet Union are now seeking to land on the moon. But does just landing on the moon prove its strength?

There is no guarantee that conflicts and conflicts will not break out between the two sides on the moon.

But if there were such powerful armed elites...then everything would be completely different.

Although helium 3 is still not recognized as an important resource, there is no doubt about the strategic significance of the moon. If the US military can establish a lunar base, the Soviet Union will be on pins and needles no matter what?

Today's scholars still have some "làng romantic feelings" about space. Most people believe that with current development, it is very likely that people will truly conquer the moon by the beginning of the 21st century.

But unfortunately, after the Apollo moon landing, the Soviet Union withdrew from this round of space hegemony, and the Americans no longer sought to land on the moon after discovering that there were no resources worth developing on the moon.

If both sides do not weaken their enthusiasm for the moon, then it might be possible to develop a lunar base in the future...

"On the contrary, this crucio tank is more valuable in use. Look at this design... Oh, my God, how wonderful this is..."

Someone took out another design drawing.

In order to design this crucio tank, Catherine spent a lot of effort. Fortunately, because the company was developing a fire control system for the United States, Catherine was lucky enough to get the drawings of the M45 and M60 - of course not all of them.

Catherine couldn't look at hundreds of kilograms of (correct) drawings. She just disassembled them according to the full cross-section of the tank. As for the drawings of the parts one by one, Catherine didn't look at them at all. She just looked at them herself.

I roughly drew a deformed pattern next to it.

"Double-barreled 90mm artillery, and a siege artillery... are indeed sharp weapons among conventional weapons..."

Some people agree.

"However, there seems to be some problems with this design. Although there are not many deformation functions, you see, if it changes frequently, the stress on the beams here will become uneven, and because it needs to withstand high temperatures, it is easy to accumulate stress.

This design looks good, but when it is actually developed, there will be a lot of problems."

Someone saw the flaw at a glance.

"It's a matter of materials, and the design itself could also use a double-beam structure to increase strength."

"But wouldn't the three-barrel artillery be a little too extravagant?"

Others had doubts about Catherine's bold idea.

"There is no problem with this at all." Someone said confidently: "The Soviet Union also knows this information, so we can use this reason to threaten Congress. I believe that those guys who are stingier than Grandet will pay for us.

."

Everyone laughed.

Indeed, this is a good idea.

But some people are worried: "As for the Soviet Union...will they develop such a tank? If they develop it first, it will become a huge deterrent to Europe, and once a group is formed, they will become

Become an indestructible existence.”

Yes, as long as logistics can be ensured, no matter how solid a position is, it will become nothing.

Some people are already fantasizing about the U.S. Army sweeping the world, but at this moment, someone comes out to pour cold water on it...

"I'm just afraid of guerrilla warfare..."

Just a few words can extinguish everyone's enthusiasm...

Yes, if the other party hides in the jungle or other places... then there is really no good way.

"But such a tank is not for guerrilla warfare, right? It should be for large-scale battles and positional warfare."

"In any case, the material strength of the deformed tank is the most troublesome problem. If this problem is not solved, no matter how powerful such a tank is, it will be useless."

Yes, if the machine breaks down when it's time to transform...it's too late to cry.

"...Also, regarding this submarine carrier, I think this is most likely to be realized within ten years."

Someone spoke out their thoughts.

"It's also a matter of materials. It's very difficult to achieve sealing. But compared to deformed tanks, this idea is indeed easier to implement."

——Katherine would never have imagined that her most despised idea would actually be taken seriously by these people.

"The combination of aircraft carriers and submarines will be very effective in conducting harassment operations, and with this design... we can completely realize the independent operations of the aircraft carrier."

Although the aircraft carrier is the "artifact" of the blue water navy, if there is no escort fleet, even the aircraft carrier may be destroyed before it can play its role...

But if it is such a diving aircraft carrier, it can completely operate alone.

When encountering a small fleet, such an aircraft carrier can completely crush it with its own strength. If it encounters a large force, it can escape safely at a speed of up to 30 knots.

"Materials..."

Someone else sighed.

Yes, so far, the factor that restricts the development of these products is not other things, but... materials, theory, etc., this is not a problem at all. With the help of these experts, Catherine's products have become

It seems that it can be realized, but if there are not enough good materials, the products produced may still be just fancy...

The hardness is not enough, the pressure resistance is not enough, the plasticity is not enough... the current steel materials simply do not meet the conditions.

"Do you need to invite Miss Edson to explain it in person?"

someone asked.

"No, and we are not sure whether these ideas are the other party's hard work or careful consideration. And she is just a young nvxing who is less than 20 years old. I do admit that these things are of great help to us, but I

I’m more inclined to think that the other person is doing it with their own heart.”

Someone seemed to have some kind of dissatisfaction with Catherine.

But someone said: "Creativity is not valuable, but creativity that can be turned into reality is priceless."

Different ideas have different meanings to different people.

Just like a "second-level" young man who knows how to clamor every day, he tells the world that his idea can sell 100 million, and probably no one will pay attention to him, even if his idea is really worth that much, or even far away.

Far more than that, I'm afraid it won't work.

People will only think that this person has changed from a "chuunibyou patient" to a "severe chuunibyou" patient.

But if it were Bill Gates who came up with the same idea, it wouldn't take long for his idea to be realized. Even if he provided this idea to others.

This is the difference in status.

If Catherine were a novelist, her creativity would probably not be taken seriously.

But whether it is Pip-Boy's fire control system or the Internet that is now spread all over the United States, it can be said that it was all handled by Catherine, and there is also the bonus point of "data stolen by the Soviet Union" - if her

The information is not important, why do the Soviets need it? - If it were not for the fact that Catherine was a girl, the level of attention she received now would be just as high as it is now.

"I think it would be better for us to conduct a detailed evaluation of these products first?"

"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult. If you want to deduce it, it may take a long time. I'm afraid it will take a lot of time to calculate."

"Maybe it would be a little easier if we could use a supercomputer?"

"The fastest supercomputer at present is Miss Edson's product, right?"

There was a moment of silence.

"Okay, I admit she is a genius."

Someone from before suddenly said...

Although Catherine did not know that her idea was being evaluated by a large group of people, she was mentally prepared for this situation to occur. Since all of her products had been stolen by the Soviets, there must be something good about it.

Value--even with this mentality, I'm afraid some people will look through Catherine's products.

Catherine's products indeed gave them a lot of inspiration, but she didn't know that the future trajectory had already undergone major changes...

If we use a fashionable term, it is that the change rate of the world line has exceeded 1...

Uh... Today I ate from 4pm to 9pm. I felt a little nauseous, and then I ate a grapefruit as an appetizer. I always felt that my stomach was full and bloated. It was so uncomfortable. I will update tomorrow.
