Chapter 2610 Extreme Underwater Survival Tactics

Hearing what Zhang Xiaolei said, everyone present became interested. If this air filtration and oxygen supply circulation system could only be installed on the exoskeleton protective armor of underwater special warfare machinery, then naturally everyone would not be so excited.

Although many special forces can now conduct amphibious operations, including water and underwater operations. However, the main body of other special forces operations is still on the vast land. Only the main combat units of the Marine Corps and Marine Special Forces are placed in ocean waters, underwater environments, and amphibious island and reef areas, and are then compatible with the operational needs of other geographical environments.

Therefore, for these special forces, although they are envious of the air filtration and oxygenation circulation system that can allow divers to stay underwater for fifty or sixty hours, they will not purchase an underwater diving system specifically for underwater combat missions. Special operations mechanical exoskeleton protective armor equipment.

Therefore, after hearing Zhang Xiaolei's clear and affirmative answer, these people were naturally ecstatic. Only the Marine Corps remained calm, and there was even a hint of resentment, grievance, and displeasure.

“This air filtration and oxygen supply circulation system can be designed and manufactured as an independent air supply system, which can be carried on the back of a diver like a diving backpack, and then used normally like a gas cylinder.

Of course, this independent air supply system, due to its limited power and limited capacity, is naturally inferior to the performance of the air filtration and oxygen supply circulation system equipped on the exoskeleton protective armor. It can only provide divers with approximately Half, which is about twenty to thirty hours.

However, we believe that even twenty to thirty hours is enough to cope with various underwater combat missions. And most of the current wetsuits only have two types, one dry type and one wet type.

Even a dry suit only prevents the water that flows into the suit from flowing out, and cannot completely isolate our divers from water. This will also lead to the fact that if our divers stay underwater for too long, on the one hand, they may accelerate the loss of body heat, leading to hypothermia in the upper body, which is not only harmful to health, but may also be life-threatening. On the other hand, long-term contact of water with the skin can also cause a series of skin and body diseases.

The last thing is the breathing method. Regular diving requires breathing with a respirator. This method is not comfortable and is also a drain on people. If used for a long time, it may cause a series of problems, such as wear and inflammation of the inner wall of the mouth.

The other one wears a respirator, which means that the diver cannot enter the water to eat. Staying underwater for a long time and diving is also very taxing on the body.

Failure to replenish things in time will cause the diver's physical strength to decline rapidly, which will not only affect the completion of the task, but also bring some life dangers.

Therefore, if you are wearing this backpack with a separate air filtration and oxygen circulation system, we recommend that you do not dive underwater for more than eight hours at a time. If the amount of underwater exercise is too large, the time will be reduced accordingly to five or six hours, or even shorter. "

After listening to Zhang Xiaolei's introduction, everyone present nodded, and the expressions on the faces of the Marines also looked better.

Indeed, Zhang Xiaolei was right. Diving underwater for a long time is very physically demanding for divers. Moreover, the temperature under water is usually very low. It is easy to lose body temperature if you stay underwater for a long time. You must know that this is life-threatening.

As for Zhang Xiaolei, after she finished speaking, she was paying attention to the reactions of everyone present. After everyone digested it for a while, she smiled and walked to the underwater special warfare mechanical exoskeleton protective armor and introduced it with a smile.

"Our underwater special warfare mechanical exoskeleton protective armor uses a fully enclosed protective suit, which means that we can completely isolate people from the water, so that our wearers are always in a dry and constant temperature environment. middle.

In this way, the problem that conventional diving suits cannot isolate water and keep heat can be solved.

Secondly, everyone pays attention to the straw inside our head armor. Our wearer can use this straw to replenish water and liquid food.

We have set up a food storage box in the back backpack system, which stores water, food, and refreshing drinks. You can also freely equip some mood-enhancing foods according to your own preferences.

Through menu control, the straw can be switched anytime and anywhere to choose water or different foods. Of course, these foods must be easy to digest and less excreted.

After all, you have to stay underwater for such a long time without being able to use the toilet. In this case, the best way is not to eat, but people always have to excrete.

Therefore, at this time, it is necessary to strictly control the diet so that basically all the supplemented food can be absorbed. Of course, this is impossible.

Then our wearers can only wear diapers or urine bags. "

"Of course, this is an extreme tactic in a very extreme environment. After all, staying underwater for such a long time is a severe test for a person's willpower, physical strength, and spirit. So if conditions permit, it is better to Try to keep the mission within ten hours as much as possible. If you want to perform continuous missions, it is best to carry a watertight cabin or go to land regularly for repairs."

After listening to Zhang Xiaolei's words, everyone present began to whisper and communicate with each other.

At this time, the leader of the Marine Corps group, a lieutenant colonel with a navy flag on his armband, stood at attention and saluted Zhang Xiaolei.

"Manager Zhang, this is Zhao Chenggang from Jiaolong. You just introduced the air filtration and oxygenation circulation system on this underwater special warfare mechanical exoskeleton protective armor that allows frogmen to stay underwater for fifty or sixty hours. Could you please tell me about this data? Have you ever tried it?"

Hearing the question from the Marine Lieutenant Colonel, Zhang Xiaolei immediately faced him and replied with a smile: "No, this is just theoretical data. Actual use may be different due to different environments, so the results may be different.

During the development of this air filtration and oxygenation circulation system, we once used a swimming pool to conduct experiments, but we could not keep our testers underwater for fifty or sixty hours. We can only use multiple people to take turns to conduct the test. According to multiple test results, under normal circumstances, our air filtration and oxygen supply circulation system is equipped with 12 liters of liquid oxygen, which can sustain our testers underwater for forty months. hours or more.

This result may be different from the theoretical data. This is mainly because we cannot accurately predict the normal physiological state of people underwater, so naturally we cannot predict their oxygen consumption underwater. "
