Vol 2 Chapter 1437: What weapon is this big guy equipped with?
And compared to these armored fighting vehicles and main battle tanks, this humanoid mech is more flexible and maneuverable, especially in complex environments, which is unmatched by armored fighting vehicles and tanks.
In the end, it was Zou Xiaodong who was the most concerned and most curious field, and he took the lead in asking this question.
What kind of weapons can be equipped on a big guy like this?
Hearing Zou Xiaodong’s greetings, Meng Hai laughed: “There are many weapons that can be equipped. The most common ones are automatic machine guns and small-caliber artillery.
For example, we can equip it with a 12.7mm Gatling machine gun, making it a mobile fortress of human firepower.
Or equip it with a dual 20mm rapid-fire gun. As a result, its ability to suppress enemy positions on the battlefield is still very strong.
Or, we can add a 40mm automatic grenade launcher to it. With sufficient ammunition capacity, it can quickly launch a large number of grenades to the designated area, turning the enemy's position into a sea of flames.
In addition, we can also install rocket launchers, rocket launchers, anti-tank missiles, anti-aircraft missiles and so on.
If its size continues to expand, we can also equip it with larger-caliber artillery, and some other weapons are all possible. "
Judging from Meng Hai’s narration, the weapon firepower of this Xingtian Mecha (robot) is not strong, but not weak. Perhaps its firepower is compared to an ordinary armored combat vehicle.
But its maneuverability, especially the maneuverability to adapt to a variety of terrain, is unmatched by armored vehicles. Moreover, its strong firepower continuity can also play a huge role on the battlefield.
In addition, it is of course that it has strong battlefield survivability. Unless it is hit by large-caliber artillery or missile rockets, generally small-caliber weapons can cause no harm to it.
Therefore, in addition to being suitable for combat in complex terrain such as jungles and mountains, it is also suitable for a battlefield, that is, urban combat. As we all know, urban combat will be a main battlefield in future wars. In the narrow streets of the city, it can be said that it is very unfavorable for armored vehicles to fight, because these armored vehicles cannot compare attacks from all angles.
And such Xingtian Mecha (robot), which is essentially a humanoid robot, can be suitable for entering some small spaces to fight, and it is difficult for general light weapons to damage it.
It is suitable to use it to clean up the remaining enemies hiding in the city alleys and buildings.
In addition, this Xingtian Mecha (robot) is also suitable for public security patrols in post-war cities and other areas. Its powerful maneuverability and sense of oppression can greatly deter those remaining enemies. And in the event of an attack, it can respond quickly and quickly wipe out these remaining enemies.
When will the second prototype be completed? Wu Hao asked Meng Hai.
Hearing Wu Hao’s question, Meng Hai thought about it carefully, and then replied: “The development of the Xingtian Mecha (robot) No. 2 prototype has already begun. It is expected to be manufactured this winter, and you will be able to enter it immediately. Testing phase.
We plan to complete four to five such prototypes by next summer, and start the field test phase, and send them to the northeast, the west, the plateau, and the south for extreme tests in different environments to test them. Its reliability in extreme environments. "
After listening to Meng Hai’s answer, Wu Hao nodded, then looked at this Xingtian Mecha (robot) and said: “Hurry up, I hope to officially introduce it to military leaders at the military-civilian technology integration exchange exhibition next spring. .
Besides, if possible, I hope to send it to the Pearl City Air Show next fall. "
Hearing Wu Hao's words, Meng Hai and all the researchers were excited. Being able to board a domestic cutting-edge technology exhibition such as the military-civilian technology integration exhibition, and formally introduce it to the military, proves that Wu Hao recognizes the performance of this Xingtian mecha (robot) very much, and also trusts them incomparably.
Being able to board the Pearl City Air Show, the major air show in the world today, would like to show their latest masterpieces by military industry counterparts from all over the world. This will be their greatest glory.
Of course, no glory can compare to the weapons and equipment they have developed. They can play a role in the construction of national defense and perform well in defending the country.
Compared to those compliments, this is the greatest recognition for them, and also their greatest wish.
You can rest assured that we will rush to hand over two qualified Xingtian Mechas (robots) to you at the military-civilian technology integration exchange exhibition next spring. Allows you to take them to the exhibition and show its excellent performance to military leaders. Meng Hai assured Wu Hao.
That's good, I'll wait and see. When the project is successful, I personally congratulate you. Wu Hao responded readily.
Thank you Mr. Wu. Meng Hai and other project scientists and technicians expressed their gratitude.
Wu Hao waved his hand, then looked at the surrounding environment and smiled and asked: "Are there any difficulties or problems in your life in your current research and development work?"
This is also the most frequently asked by his inspection work. If there is any problem or request, as long as it is reasonable, he will take the opportunity to help solve it in time. If it can't be solved on the spot, he will deal with it as soon as possible after returning.
Everyone knows this, Meng Hai opened his mouth when he heard Wu Hao's question, but he still didn't say it, hesitated in his expression. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
Wu Hao smiled and asked: "If you have any problems, just say them openly. If I can help you solve them, I will do my best to help you solve them. If I can't help you solve them, I have nothing to do with you.
So, what can I say quickly while I am here. "
Hearing Wu Hao’s words, Meng Hai finally didn’t hesitate, and immediately said to him: “In our current development work, there is indeed a problem that hinders the progress of the entire project.”
What's the problem, just say it. Wu Hao waved his hand and acted vigorously. At work, he likes to go straight, and he doesn't like the kind of circle and officialdom. People who have dealt with him know this.
Therefore, seeing Wu Hao’s expression, Meng Hai immediately replied to him seriously: “That’s right, this Xingtian Mecha (robot) is relatively large. Based on our current site conditions, it’s difficult to control its full performance. carry out testing.
But if it is placed outdoors, it is easy to leak. So we wondered if we could build a large indoor test field for us to follow up related tests of Xingtian Mecha (robot).
This project is not only real-time, but many projects also need such a large indoor test field. Just because of the conditions, it has not been mentioned. "
Hearing Meng Hai’s words, Wu Hao thought a little bit, and did not immediately agree, but said to him: “In this way, I’ll go back and let someone do a research first, and then I will give you an official answer.”
