Redemption of WWII

Although Feng Bryan's experimental fly hit the target, Liu Qi questioned Bryan. 【】

There is no way to do this, the fly that Brian made is really far from the fly that Liu Qi imagined he should see.Although Liu Qi didn't learn to fly, Liu Qi still knows the common sense of physics.The object is flying in the air, the more stable the flight path is, the greater the probability that the object will reach the designated target.Rather than what Liu Qi saw, the fly itself kept rotating, resulting in an irregular spiral flight trajectory.

Feng Bryan did not think that Liu Qi was insulting his own product.Von Bryan said with a wry smile, "Colonel Andri, to tell you the truth, I don't know what this thing is called. You may have arrived, and the rocket rotated the moment it flew out of the generator. It should happen, but because the flying wings made of the new material provided by Dr. Hollander are extremely sensitive to heat changes, the rocket will rotate irregularly. However, after the rocket is rotated, it can still correctly focus on the target. I can't explain it to you very well now. Let Dr. Olander talk about his method." Feng Bryan is really depressed, he is the producer of this weapon, but he even Why can a weapon hit the target correctly? I can't tell you how ugly it is. It would be strange if I wasn't depressed.

After listening to Brian's words, Liu Qi also felt dumbfounded.So Liu Qi turned around and asked Olande next to him, "Dr. Olande, can you tell me how this weapon works?"

Upon hearing Liu Qi's words, Oland quickly waved his hands and said, "Colonel Andri, don't ask me these things. I'm just a metal physicist, and I'm not very professional in aerodynamics. All I can say now is The most surprising thing is that the material used to make the rocket's flying wings is an alloy that is the most sensitive to heat energy among the metal materials I have experimented with. As for why it can hit the target, I can't tell."

Hearing this, Liu Qi almost fell to the ground. Two of the most learned doctors in the world couldn't figure out why Fei could hit the target. This... this is too ridiculous.Liu Qi suddenly felt like a blind cat catching a dead mouse. Liu Qi said in his heart, "It is said that science cannot be false. Every weapon is produced after rigorous testing of scientific theories. But today's abnormal No one can explain it scientifically, and what's even more absurd is that the weapon has been successfully tested."

Liu Qi's principle of life has always been that if he can't figure it out, he doesn't think about it. Anyway, it doesn't matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat.No matter what his reasoning is, as long as he can shoot down the planes of the allies who are about to fly over Germany.

"Okay, Dr. Brian. You can think about the principle of how the weapon hits the target. Can I ask you a word now. When will your weapon today be able to fully equip the entire army." Liu Qi directly Just throw out your own intentions.Yes, the use of weapons is ultimately a preparation for the final battle.A weapon that has not passed the battlefield test will be a pile of scrap iron no matter how amazingly crafted it is.

"This..." Feng Brian hesitated when he heard Liu Qi's question.

Liu Qi seemed to have something hard to say about Feng Bryan, and quickly asked, "What's the matter, Dr. Bryan, do you have any questions?"

"What, Colonel Andri, I'll tell you the truth. The two launchers and the rockets we use today are made by me using the equipment at the rocket base. Don't worry about the small size of the rockets, they are actually constructed exactly the same as the large rockets. Even the engine is a miniature version of the V-shaped rocket. According to our current military level in Germany, these things cannot be mass-produced. There are also some difficulties that we cannot overcome..." Brian said.

Listening to Brian's faltering words, Liu Qi immediately sensed that Brian's words had something to say.Liu Qi said, "Dr. Brian, you can rest assured that as long as you can draw the blueprint of this thing, it will be produced. If you have any difficulties, you can tell them all. I will definitely help you solve it."

"That, nothing else, it's just that the cost of this weapon is a little higher..." Brian hesitated whether he should tell Liu Qi.

"Oh, so that's the case. Isn't it just money, Dr. Brian, please don't worry about money. As long as we can get off the plane, we don't hesitate to make the production cost higher." Liu Qi looks like a rich man .It is true that Liu Qi is rich, the hundreds of tons of gold in the ring alone have already made Liu Qi feel no pain in his back while standing and talking.Liu Qi then asked casually, "How much does it cost to make a fly?"

"Not much. The current production cost is about 15 Reichsmarks. If it can be mass-produced, it is estimated that the cost will definitely be reduced to less than [-] Reichsmarks." von Blaine said.

"15 marks, isn't that much? What..." At first Liu Qi felt that 15 marks was not a big number.But then he came over in a daze. "Dr. Brian, how much did you say? I can't hear you wrong. Are you sure it's 15 marks? Isn't it 15 yen?" Liu Qi gritted his teeth when he said 15.

"That's right, Colonel Andri, you heard it right, it's 15 marks. We don't use Japanese currency as the unit of cost calculation. I wonder why you think of Japanese yen." Feng Bryan asked why Liu Qi would It is very strange to think of using the yen as the unit of measurement.

"15 marks..." Liu Qi couldn't help but gasped.This is a real 15 gold marks. You must know that it is still in the first half of the [-]th century, and the economies of various countries are still in a semi-closed state. Prepare enough banknotes, the world's big economic cycle has not yet formed.The currencies of every country are still extremely expensive.Even the current Japanese yen is quite valuable, and the military expenditure of the Japanese Navy is only a few billion yen every year.It can be said that the current currency is the real gold currency.

Now the average monthly salary in Germany is only less than 1 marks, and a luxury car is only more than 12 marks.Even the counterfeiting of expensive military technical equipment has not reached such an outrageous level.Take the latest German Leopard tank as an example. The purchase price of a finished Leopard tank army is only [-] marks, and this also includes a large amount of profits from arms dealers.

Needless to say, Liu Qi also knew that this was a typical prodigal behavior for spending more money than a Leopard tank, a sharp weapon of land warfare, to build a one-off weapon for shooting planes.Germany is now at a critical juncture in the war, and Britain and the United States may launch air strikes against Germany from the long European defense line at any time.For defending these densely packed air fortresses, Liu Qi couldn't tell how many such anti-air weapons were needed.How many such weapons are needed for a battle, whether it is two thousand, five thousand, or ten thousand.

If that were the case, the Third Reich would be dragged down within a few battles, and Hitler would have to pawn his underpants to resume his glorious career as a tramp.

Liu Qi really wanted to ask Brian, "Is your thing inlaid with gold trim, but Liu Qi knows that even if this thing is all made of gold, it can't be worth so much money. This is a weapon. This... ...Isn't this obviously a prodigal?" However, Liu Qi didn't want to dampen the high fighting spirit of the people present, so Liu Qi thought for a while and said, "Dr. What is the approximate cost of the v2 rocket you are developing now."

Brian was stunned by Liu Qi's question, but Brian was a genius with an IQ over 160 after all, so he quickly understood what Liu Qi meant.Brian smiled and replied, "Colonel Andri, I know what you mean. I can tell you clearly that the cost of v2 is less than 100 million yuan. However, the 100 million yuan does not include labor costs, because we use The labor comes from those prisoners. This saves more than half of the cost of v2 production."

"Oh, then I want to ask Dr. Brian. A rocket that is thousands of times larger than this weapon and can fly outside the atmosphere only costs 100 million marks. This one-time weapon that is only used for air defense operations costs 15 Mark [-], isn’t it too expensive?” Liu Qi asked.

"Colonel Andri, what you said is correct. According to the size ratio of the weapon and its military use, this weapon is indeed expensive. But there is no way to do it. Due to the miniaturization of the engine, the thinned engine wall is even more expensive. It is easy to be melted by heat, so we have to use expensive rare metals as raw materials for making engines. The value of this rare metal is more than ten times that of gold. In addition, this metal must also be used in the navigator for making this weapon. That's it Two points lead to the high cost of this weapon. Dr. Hollander understands this more clearly, he is a metal physicist after all." von Blaine explained.

Hearing Brian call his name, Olande said beside him, "Colonel Andri, what Dr. Brian said is indeed true. The alloy made of this rare metal is indeed very expensive, and we don't have this kind of metal in Europe." , This kind of metal is imported from other countries. After the war began, due to the British blockade of our sea, it became more and more difficult to import rare metals. This caused the price of our domestic rare metals to skyrocket.”

Liu Qi was born in construction, and has a very rich knowledge of metal materials.Liu Qi knows that some metals can indeed withstand high temperatures, and these metals are widely used in the production of military weapons.But the 15 is indeed a bit too nonsense, this is no longer a war, it's all a waste of money.
