Chapter 1646 Railgun

"boom."
Slamming down the button heavily, a trace of madness flashed across Miles' face.
Magnetic rail gun, also called rail gun, is an advanced kinetic energy killing weapon made by electromagnetic launch technology.
Unlike traditional cannons, which use gunpowder gas pressure to act on projectiles, railguns use the force of the electromagnetic field in the electromagnetic system, which acts for a much longer time, which can greatly increase the speed and range of projectiles.
A railgun consists of two parallel rails between which the projectile is sandwiched.The two rails are connected to the power supply, and the current flows through one guide rail to the projectile and then to the other guide rail to generate a strong magnetic field. The magnetic field interacts with the current to generate a strong ampere force to push the projectile to a high speed.
Here, Miles knows, their rail gun, is capable of sublight speeds.
Many people may not know what a rail gun is.
Or they know what a rail gun is, but they don't think there is anything terrible about rail guns.
You know, the real power of rail guns is quite amazing.
Miles is still very clear about this.
He was once involved in the development of rail guns.
In the distant past, probably decades ago, he will never forget that scene:
A frigate obtained the coordinates of the location of the enemy headquarters 300 kilometers away.
However, it did not launch a Tomahawk cruise missile worth 100 million Sam coins to destroy the target, but fired a shell about 1 meter long and weighed about 20 kilograms from the superconducting electromagnetic track of the barrel.
The power source of this kind of shell is neither gunpowder nor fuel, but the electric energy injected into the cannon by the warship engine, and the shell is ejected at a speed of more than 7 times the speed of sound.
Its unbelievable speed gives it enough momentum to blow a target to pieces in an instant.
The gun barrel of the electromagnetic railgun is composed of two parallel guide rails about 6 meters long, which are connected by a smooth rotor. The current flows out of one rail, passes through the rotor, and then flows back from the other rail. This loop generates a magnetic field to push The rotor, which in turn pushes the projectile in front of the rotor out of orbit.
The range of ordinary naval guns is only 20 kilometers, and the accuracy is very poor.
Cruise missiles have an effective range of more than 300 kilometers, but they are expensive, and a ship can only carry up to 70 of them.
Since it cannot be loaded and unloaded at sea, it must also return to the port when replenishing.
The electromagnetic railgun has high hopes from the Ministry of National Defense of Sam because of its advantages such as long range, low cost, convenient transportation and supplementation.
Back then, Miles, who participated in the research and development and experimentation, witnessed the development of the rail gun with his own eyes.
Railguns are simply deadly weapons.
Especially 2003.
That year, he witnessed the horror of rail guns.
In April 2003, a sea demonstration test of how a 4mm electromagnetic gun fires hypersonic ammunition was successfully completed in Kirkcudbright, Scotland.
The test was jointly completed by the Sam's National Marine System Command and the electromagnetic gun factory of the UK's Queenetik Company. The system used in the test was a prototype that was only 1/8 the size of the future prototype, but at an initial speed of more than 2500 m/s. Velocity fired the projectile.
Many senior officials of the Sam State Navy, including Admiral Robert, the Commander of the Sam State Naval Fleet, and Rear Admiral Jay, the Director of the Naval Research Bureau, attended this promising technology demonstration test.
The test is a key step in the development of electrically powered weapons to revolutionize naval fires and transform the role of a new generation of naval gun naval surface combatants.
Naval Sea Systems Command presented the results of the Coulkbury test to the Sam Nation Naval Sea Research Advisory Committee Electromagnetic Gun Technology Study Group.
The group published an assessment report in February 2004.
The report identifies railguns as a potentially transformational weapon and recommends that the Navy initiate a risk-mitigation research program to ensure the weapon is suitable for future destroyer programs.
The team also believes that the electromagnetic gun is a revolutionary electromagnetic gun combat system that can carry out lethal strikes on targets beyond 200 nautical miles, and at the same time has the advantages of increasing ammunition reserves, improving launch accuracy, reducing costs and logistical support requirements.
After a while, military officials of the State of Sam announced that naval engineers of the State of Sam successfully tested the first prototype of an electromagnetic railgun manufactured by a military enterprise at the Dahlgren Ground Warfare Center in Virginia. Work on a new long-range weapon has advanced a step further.
According to the information released by the Navy, the initial velocity of the shell can reach 7000 to 8000 meters per second, and it can hit targets 90 to 180 kilometers away.
Electromagnetic gun project manager Roger Ellis said that the main purpose of the test firing was to evaluate the barrel life and overall structure of the prototype gun.
This will bring the Navy one step closer to a future tactical weapon system, he said.
If fully developed, the railgun could greatly enhance the Navy's multi-mission capabilities.
Its muzzle velocity and range far exceed that of ordinary ship-borne artillery, which means that the navy can implement precise long-range fire support for land military operations, intercept incoming enemy cruise missiles or ballistic missiles, and attack enemy ships.
The prototype of the electromagnetic railgun with a kinetic energy of 32 megajoules manufactured by the Sam Country Branch of the Eagle Country Ordnance Development Company has undergone six test firings within a week, and the test firing has opened up a two-month evaluation process.
In the process, the Navy will evaluate the railgun prototype built by BAE against another railgun prototype built by General Atomic Systems.
These are all key points.
In the next ten years, rail guns have made great progress.
A series of real rail guns that can be used in actual combat are officially installed on warships.
When human beings were able to step out of the earth and embark on the technology of the Milky Way, rail guns were even installed on space battleships.
At this time, space battleships are no longer the traditional third-tier warships on Earth.
At this time, the space battleship is quite mature.
What is a space battleship?
Refers to military spacecraft with powerful destructive capabilities that can navigate in space, and are used to perform various military missions in space combat, including attack, reconnaissance, cruise, and escort.
There are many types of space battleships, the only one that has no combat effectiveness is the reconnaissance ship.
Reconnaissance ships are generally small warships with fast flying speed and quick response. They are not heavily armed and can be used for reconnaissance, surveillance, etc., or have stealth functions.
Although the transport ship that Miles is currently controlling has no combat effectiveness in name, this transport ship is after all a refit of a battleship.
Even though the exterior is covered with the shell of a transport ship, the inside is still the core of a battleship.
Therefore, rail guns are installed in more than one place on battleships.
If fired at all, this battleship is enough to destroy the entire planet Pandora.
