My Black Tech Shelter

On December 20, after Lu Chen designed the two spacecrafts, the third batch of spacecraft and the first batch of spacecraft formed a new flight formation to go to Mars.

The reason for setting off so late this time is to prepare more supplies to transport to Mars, so the departure is postponed until now.

There are 10 spaceships in total this time, and Comet 1 in the first batch was left on the moon for navigation between blue moons.

In addition, due to the finalization of the new warship, a lot of equipment for the warship production line was also carried this time.

According to Lu Chen's requirement of 100 production lines, the construction tasks of 50 production lines were assigned on Mars.

This time, the 10 spacecrafts brought a total of all the equipment of two production lines.

It’s not that I don’t want to bring more equipment, as long as the space of the comet-class spacecraft is limited, and the construction equipment of the asteroid-class and hummingbird-class spacecraft is very large,

Even if Lu Chen adopts modular assembly technology, there will still be a lot of equipment after disassembly, and it will take up a lot of space.

In addition to ensuring the basic construction materials of the base, only two production lines can be carried.

Fortunately, in the design, Lu Chen considered the versatility of spacecraft construction and directly modified the production line of asteroid-class spacecraft to be able to build a Hummingbird-class spacecraft.

After all, the asteroid-class spacecraft is much larger than the Hummingbird-class spacecraft.

Therefore, the two production lines this time are the same general production lines, used to build two types of test ships respectively.

After the construction was completed, it happened to be driven to the asteroid belt nearby for testing. Although the artificial intelligence operation could only exert about 50% of the complete combat power, the general performance could still be tested.

However, Lu Chen is also making preparations for the crew. The first step is to recruit seafarers from various industries. These people mainly work on cargo spacecraft.

The warship crews are recruited from veterans of the Dragon Kingdom.

According to Lu Chen's positioning, the Hummingbird-class destroyer will later serve as an escort warship for cargo spacecraft to guard against some dangers in space.

Although we don't need any escort now in the solar system, we still have to form a formation after leaving the solar system.

While other fleets use frigates as fleet escort warships,

According to Lu Chen's research during this period, after entering the interstellar era, the competition will be who has the longest range, high damage, strong armor or shield, and who is faster.

As for the so-called carrier-based aircraft raid, Lu Chen said that the armor and shields of the battleships are not vegetarian.

Think about it, the armor or shield that can resist the battleship's main gun is not something that a small carrier-based aircraft can break.

As for carrier-based aircraft carrying powerful weapons, Lu Chen said that the most powerful weapons at this stage are probably nuclear bombs.

But if a carrier-based aircraft carries a nuclear bomb and explodes in the vacuum of space, can it escape?

Do you really think these carrier-based aircraft pilots are assembly line products? It’s not like kamikaze or Allah fighters carrying out suicide attacks.

Not to mention other things, such as Lu Chen’s latest design of the Hummingbird-class destroyer,

Don’t underestimate it just because you think it’s a destroyer. When you get close to it, the 1-meter-caliber close-in defense gun on it will make you a new person.

After being equipped with a quantum radar, unless you attack outside the radar range, you will have no way to hide within the radar detection range.

Moreover, the Hummingbird-class destroyer is already nuclear-proof. As long as it is not hit head-on and is within one kilometer of the center of the nuclear bomb explosion, it will basically not be affected by the nuclear radiation from the explosion.

At most, they will be affected by the shock wave and be pushed away from their location.

Currently, the only things that can damage destroyers are the battleship's main gun and the road-based electromagnetic gun or ion cannon.

However, although carrier-based aircraft are useless in Star Wars, they are a very good support method for landing operations.

Its high-speed support and huge bomb load can provide powerful air support for mobile infantry units landing on planets.

During this period of time, when Lu Chen had nothing to do, he worked on a new type of plasma bomb, which used high-temperature ionized plasma as a killing substance. Basically, when a bomb was dropped, there would be a scorched earth within a radius of 100 meters.

Lu Chen also made a special experiment. After seeing this situation, he could only seal it in Zero's database as a technical reserve.

Thinking about this, Lu Chen returned to his residence, turned on the TV, and started watching current affairs news.

"Good morning, viewers! Welcome to the morning news! Here are the main contents of today!"

“On the 19th, the Dragon Kingdom’s military announced that in order to better cope with the development of science and technology and build the Great Wall of Steel, it would adjust its military establishment, canceling the original navy queue and integrating it into the interstellar army.

At the same time, a new generation of warships is already under development and is expected to be delivered to the interstellar military in half a year.

It is understood that this warship uses the latest ion engine, and the total mass of the entire warship exceeds 100,000 tons! Please read the detailed report later! "

"In order to help the development of domestic enterprises and boost the private economy, the country has currently passed relevant bills to allow legal private companies controlled by Dragon Kingdom citizens to purchase the Star 3 spacecraft.

It is understood that the first batch of 20 Starry Sky-3 spacecraft will be sold. The relevant sales date will be announced in the near future. Please read the detailed report later! "

"The National Reform Commission issued an announcement today that it will launch a Mars development plan in six months. For details, please see today's detailed report!"

After looking at the few news briefings mentioned by the host, Lu Chen also roughly understood the official actions.

The first is the reorganization of the army, from the original three armies to the current interstellar army and army.

The original air force and navy were reorganized and transformed into today's interstellar army.

The army has become an interstellar army, specializing in planetary landing warfare and shipboarding operations.

It is more intuitive to help the private economy. In order to cope with the crisis in a few years, the country is also taking precautions and selling some of the spaceships that are already being phased out to the bosses of these private enterprises in the country, so that they can join the big cake of interstellar development. among,

After the spacecraft is sold, the funds obtained will be invested back into the market to purchase relevant spacecraft manufacturing materials and equipment.

This will ensure the cyclical development of all walks of life, and will also drive the entire interstellar spacecraft manufacturing industry chain to develop even better.

In the past, Lu Chen might not have had so many insights, but now that he has reached this height, many things can be understood at a glance.

As for the Reform Commission's announcement, Lu Chen knew that the national team was about to end.

The entire Dragon Kingdom did not suffer much losses during the Disaster Day, so it now has a large population.

It might have been a burden in the past. After all, it takes a lot of energy to ensure that so many people live and work in peace and contentment.

Therefore, the country’s focus cannot be entirely on interstellar development.

Unlike me, I can just ignore everything else and focus on developing aerospace technology.

After such a long period of social adjustment, the officials finally had time to develop interstellar resources.

Thinking about this, Lu Chen continued to watch the morning news, followed by some foreign news.

But they are all small and medium-sized things, such as a certain city is being rebuilt, a protest march occurred in a certain place, and a shooting incident occurred in a certain place, etc.

Lu Chen didn't pay attention to these. The only thing that made Lu Chen pay attention was the development of foreign aerospace technology.

Due to the small actions of the Star-Spangled Kingdom before, Daxiong and Xiou no longer took him to play, so they could only do it alone.

But I have to say that the technological foundation of the Stars and Stripes Country is still good. Now it has developed an ion engine with performance close to the first generation. This surprised Lu Chen.

But I was just surprised. After all, the first-generation ion engine could not break through the gravitational constraints of the Blue Star.

It will probably take a year until the second generation ion engine is developed, unless they also have wall mounts there.

Western Europe and Daxiong are a bit confused. In order to catch up with the Dragon Kingdom, the two sides have deepened their cooperation in the field of spacecraft.

In order to study super power, power experts from both sides gathered together and began to conduct research based on existing nuclear power engines.

The latest report is that test runs have begun.

But according to what Lu Chen learned from the news

The thrust of the current nuclear power engine has exceeded 10,000 tons, but the speed is a bit unsatisfactory and can only reach the speed of the third-generation ion engine.

Moreover, this kind of engine is huge and weighs more than 3,000 tons. It can be said that the payload is only 7,000 tons. In addition, other equipment must be installed.

In the end, Lu Chen estimated that if three such nuclear engines were used as power, the payload might not exceed 6,000 tons, and the size, full load is estimated to be only 25,000 tons. After all, in addition to the 9,000 tons of the three engines, only The remaining 16,000 tons of payload, plus the weight of the hull and internal systems, would be good to have a 6,000-ton payload.

However, these are all Lu Chen's guesses, but he thinks there shouldn't be much difference, and nuclear radiation is always a troublesome problem. I wonder if these experts have found a solution.

The last piece of news is a riot that has just appeared recently. On a street in Stars and Stripes, a huge, deformed figure is destroying everywhere, and the surrounding people are also constantly fleeing from this place.

Soon, official law enforcement officers arrived and killed the deformed creature on the spot.

According to the reporter's on-site interview, we learned that the deformed creature ran out of a nearby biological research institute.

The officials of the Stars and Stripes Country quickly responded, claiming that this was a bioenhancer studied by a private biological laboratory, but the experiment failed and the test product accidentally escaped. The official had sealed the biological laboratory. and took care of it,

However, Lu Chen estimated that Xingstripe Kingdom secretly stuffed scientific researchers into his research team.

After all, these foreigners are very greedy for Dragon Kingdom's human enhancement pills, but its unique internal genetic identification method makes the secretly smuggled potions useless at all, and the testers even had diarrhea for several days.
