Pan Galactic Age

Chapter 990 Test
I still remember that he and Yun Congming met for the first time three years ago, and their knowledge in starship design and construction could complement each other.

He was amazed at this backward, chaotic and remote place, and there was such a young man who was about his age and had a similar level of knowledge in the cutting-edge professional field of starship design and casting.

Since the death of his mentor, An Sen, Yun Congming had no one with whom he could communicate with about starship casting. One can imagine how excited he was after communicating with Xiao Cheng.

But now looking at these data and these results, Xiao Cheng found that in the past three years, he has been busy with the construction of the Tianxin Legion, and Yun Congming has been immersed in the research of the knowledge left by An Sen, and the secrets he asked Nuwa to leave him. The essence of Ding Shenguo's starship casting, Yun Congming has really left himself too far in terms of starship design and construction.

Although it happened for a reason, it has to be said that he always felt a little regretful in his heart. After all, he was also obsessed with the design and construction of starships.

"Because the alloy armor layer selected by the magnetic armor has extremely strong self-memory recovery properties, after any place is irreversibly penetrated, the nearby armor layer will quickly fill the wounded position to avoid greater damage."

The advantage on the battlefield is extremely obvious. After the battle is over, returning to the base or relying on the logistics supply starship can restore all armor layers at the damaged position, and directly drop and replace the parts at the corresponding position. "

Participating in the battle again is still an intact warship, and there is no need to go into battle with injuries like now, which increases the probability of being destroyed. "

The dropped modules can be discarded according to the degree of damage, or the armor layer at the damaged position inside can be replaced to minimize the cost and adapt to the fast pace of war..."

Yun Congming didn't know anything about Xiao Cheng's emotion, and moved his fingers quickly on the light screen, giving a detailed introduction to the armor structure.

About 10 minutes into the introduction, he switched the light screen and signaled the staff to remove the armor modules in different positions that had been hit three times, disassemble each layer of the structure on the spot, and showed Xiao Cheng a detailed demonstration.

The armor module that was hit by electromagnetic damage just glanced at it briefly. When it was the turn of the armor module that was hit by heat energy, Yun Congming shook his head slightly and said: "...but in the face of heat energy damage...the heat energy directly melts the armor layer , although it seems that the defense capability is better than the current conventional warships, but in fact, it has damaged its stack automatic replacement feature, and made its own memory rebound useless."

Xiao Cheng looked carefully, and sure enough, as Yun Congming said, under the blow of thermal damage, the armor layers were fused together, and the original advantages were no longer obvious.

Now in space combat, in order to deal with the specially optimized armor of the local fleet for a certain type of damage, the main battleships of a fleet of the same type will choose electromagnetic, thermal, and kinetic main guns with three balanced damage main guns.

After the first wave of attack, the big data collection quickly judges and evaluates the degree of damage caused by the three, and then chooses the main gun with the weakest defense in the corresponding place.

Therefore, this kind of thermal damage is indeed the biggest weakness of this magnetic armored battleship, so he asked, "Is there any countermeasure?"

Yun Congming nodded: "We can only start from the first layer of shield to the higher resistance to heat damage."

The first layer of defense system of the starship is naturally the shield, which is based on the dense nano-layer that is evenly distributed on the surface of the battleship or tens of meters away from the surface of the battleship through energy-guided stacking. Its shape is invisible, colorless, almost transparent, and can be observed by the naked eye. Therefore, it is also habitually called an energy shield.

Under the maintenance of energy, this special nano-material has ultra-high-strength viscous properties, and all external damage can be blocked by them first, so as to protect the internal battleship from trauma.

The energy reactor inside the battleship is constantly providing sufficient energy to maintain the surface protection of the energy shield on the hull. Under normal circumstances, it is only necessary to keep the energy output of the energy reactor balanced to maintain the energy inside the entire battleship. External weapon modules, and the energy required for the energy shield to function.

But depending on the progress of the war, there are also different differences. For example, if one's own fleet is on the superior side of the war, and there is a professional defensive fleet in front to resist the enemy's attack, then the battleships in the rear will reduce the energy required by the energy shield. Return excess nano-materials into the storage space in the armor layer, and pour more energy into the weapon module to enhance attack damage.

When one's own side is passive, it will transfer part of the energy of the weapon module to the energy shield module, and extract more nanomaterials from under the hull armor module and in the warehouse to enhance the strength of the starship's energy shield .

Even during extreme passive defense and retreat, the weapon module will be completely offline, and its full output will be sent to the power system and energy shield module.

This is the operating principle of the energy shield, and the composition and production of nanomaterials are not high-tech things. This thing has a history of thousands of years since its invention. With the upgrading of weapon systems, energy shield nanomaterials are also constantly updating.

But to be honest, passive defense will never develop as fast as active offensive weapons.

The nanomaterial composition of each faction is almost the same, the difference is only in the output power of the starship's core energy reactor and the thickness and strength that the nanomaterial can maintain.

Having said that, although the starship with the magnetic armor structure has excellent defensive capabilities, it cannot break away from the first layer of defense system of the outer energy shield.

Xiao Cheng nodded when he heard the words: "Even so, this kind of warship is still very good... In addition, you can start with the material of the armor cladding. I remember that there is a metal labeled BH-35j0 that seems to have excellent resistance to scorching energy. This metal belongs to the third category of rare metals in the world, although it has a specific production area, but the price is not expensive... I forgot which sphere of influence it is in, you can check it out."

After a short pause, I thought for a moment: "The Spoiler and the subsequent warship models are the highest-level key research and development projects of our Tianxin Legion. The required materials are given priority. I will inform Lao Wu again."

However, everything here must be kept secret. The research you have done is enough to make a big country like the Tiannan Democratic Republic jealous. If it is leaked out, I am afraid it will bring us a lot of trouble. "

His words can be said to be very thorough, and all the people present nodded their heads.

PS: These chapters are actually very important. In the interstellar era, the war plot is certainly exciting, but it is also quite interesting to explore these future black technologies with a big brain hole. The explanation of the defense principles of battleships may allow everyone to imagine battleship battles more intuitively. What happened in the end.
