Black tech predators

Chapter 286 [Controversy]

After Vera finished speaking, she stopped talking, and Kane and the other senior officers did not speak. She is a scientist, and it is difficult to make judgments on technical issues.

The professional is not right, and they are very witty and don't talk to each other.

But after a few seconds, another middle-aged scientific advisor wearing glasses at the meeting immediately looked at Vera and questioned him on the spot:
"It is true that the speed of laser weapons is the speed of light strikes, but I think that even if it is feasible to shoot down aircraft that can break through the upper limit of the speed of the second universe, it is only theoretical and unrealistic, not to mention that their Skyblade fighters are so small. Like a ballistic missile that is fast but can calculate its orbit, even if the terminal has the ability to change orbit, it will not be frequent."

"But for a fighter plane, its flight trajectory is like a chaotic system. You can't calculate where it will appear in the next moment, unless you control the fighter plane."

"Then here comes the problem. Laser weapons strike at the speed of light, but not destroy them at the speed of light. Laser weapons need continuous fixed-point output in order to achieve damage. The lower the output power, the longer the continuous output time. Even if the laser irradiates the sky blade Fighters, also in a very short period of time, will soon use maneuvers to evade, need a second lock, equal to recalculation, and the impact of the atmospheric environment, smog can really prevent lasers.”

"What's more, in order to achieve a considerable damage effect, the laser needs to reach an output power of megawatts, and at least it must be continuously irradiated at a fixed point for no less than 1 minute. Where does the space-based platform have so much energy to provide and consume?"

The Minister of Defense at the time of Yingjiang, Kane and the other senior staff all silently looked at the scientist Barabara Datong. Seeing that he stopped talking, Kane, White Beard Bourdain and the others turned their heads surprisingly unanimously. Look to Vera Lopez.

Whitebeard Bourdain has a big headache and can't get in the conversation, which is very distressing, but this matter really can only be counted on the scientists, so like other high-ranking candidates, they have to endure them to continue blah blah.

Vera said: "This is why I am trying my best to save the space-based platform. Most of the disadvantages you mentioned are in the atmosphere, and the combat effectiveness of the Skyblade fighter will be greatly weakened in the atmosphere, and the cruising speed will also be in the atmosphere. Below Mach 20, if it flies in the atmosphere for a long time at the ultra-high speed of the Tianren fighter like a traditional fighter, its lifespan will drop sharply."

"I think the material of the Tianren fighter jet should be mainly carbonyne alloy. It is not surprising that it may be more expensive than the B-2. The military expenditure of the US military can't afford it, let alone the people of Huaguo?"

"The Tianren fighter's home field is the high-altitude atmosphere, where its greatest strategic value can be released, which is to destroy orbiting satellites and paralyze the enemy's communication capabilities. Intercontinental ballistic missiles will break through the high-altitude atmosphere and eventually return to the atmosphere, and the Tianren fighter jet can intercept intercontinental ballistic missiles outside the high-altitude atmosphere."

"As for the air-based, it goes without saying that even though the Skyblade fighter is restricted in the atmosphere, the technological gap still makes all non-aerospace aircraft desperate."

"If the Tianren fighter does not enter outer space, it will not pose a strategic threat. As long as it enters outer space, where will the smog come from? What's more, in outer space, the output energy level of the laser will not decay, and the solar wind in outer space carries a large amount of electricity. Particles, the resulting inverse Compton effect also increases a certain energy level."

"There is another point that you are wrong. The laser energy level I mentioned is not the output power of megawatts, but the output power of 1 gigawatts. It is not necessary to irradiate for one minute, but one second is enough."

The middle-aged male scientific advisor was noncommittal about Vera's previous remarks, but when he heard her last sentence, he was stunned and immediately sneered.

"The output power reaches the 1-gigawatt level? Even if the solar panels on the space-based platform are enlarged by a hundred times, it will not be able to meet the energy level requirements of this order of magnitude. [-] millisecond."

Having said that, the middle-aged scientific advisor smiled sarcastically and turned his head away.

Kane and the others watched the two scientists bickering with each other, and everyone looked at Vera Lopez. It must be said that Vera's sister paper is very proud. In her eyes, all human beings except for the few hundred people, the rest People's minds are full of mud. If it weren't for the need for funding and Marilyn Hewson's persuasion to come, she wouldn't want to stay here and waste time.

Vera put it succinctly: "What if the space-based platform has a fusion core reactor?"

"What?"

"Are you killing me???"

The other two scientists who were invited to the meeting turned their heads and looked at Vera Lopez in a surprisingly unanimous manner.

"Could it be that the CFR controllable fusion research you led has already..." The middle-aged scientific consultant wearing glasses raised his hand to adjust the mirror in astonishment, but then shook his head: "Impossible, impossible so fast, within 20 years human beings It is impossible to master controlled nuclear fusion."

"Nothing is impossible. In fact, there is a 99% chance that the people of Huaguo have mastered the technology of controlled nuclear fusion, and they have also achieved incredible miniaturization. The body of the Tianren fighter is unbelievably small. The source of power can only be controlled by nuclear fusion. It can be explained that its voyage can cover the earth-moon system, and only the fusion core can maintain the energy consumption."

Another scientific consultant who participated in the meeting said that the middle-aged scientist wearing glasses did not speak out to refute, that is to say, he acquiesced.

Even aerospace planes have appeared, and they are still the kind that can transform into mechas. It is not a fantasy to say that the people of Huaguo have mastered the technology of controllable nuclear fusion. Otherwise, there is no way to explain the power of the Skyblade fighter. energy to support.

Superconducting battery?The energy density is indeed the highest in the world at present, but it is impossible.If it is power consumption, the engine of the Skyblade fighter must be an electric propulsion engine, but the problem arises again, it will definitely not have such a monster-level thrust, and the electric ion engine will not work at all.

Chemical fuel?That's even more impossible.

Antimatter?It is also impossible. Although it has been proved that antimatter exists objectively, natural antimatter has never been found in nature.

Then there is only one explanation - nuclear energy!

Even the proud sister Vera didn't expect that the energy core of the Skyblade fighter is light.

Light cannot be captured, light has no rest mass, and it is impossible to generate thrust, otherwise it violates the conservation of momentum.

Therefore, using the method of elimination, they finally agreed that only nuclear energy is the most tenable.

At this time, the Minister of Defense who had remained silent all this time finally spoke. He looked at the talented girls from North America who were present at the meeting.

"Ms. Vera, I want you to give me an accurate answer. Can the Lockheed Martin CFR project you lead succeed?"
