Chapter 421: New equipment design

After re-adjusting his state, Chen Xin no longer entangled with genetic

modification, and instead devoted his energy to several important things at

hand.

However, most of the projects need to wait until the construction of the

scientific research base is completed. The only thing that can be done is the

research on military weapons.

The research and development of Titans and large vehicles is limited by the

site. Chen Xin did not proceed immediately. Instead, he intends to wait for

the scientific research base to be built and the conditions are met before

proceeding with the research and development work. He now only intends to use

the time before the scientific research base is built. , Make several

exoskeleton and power armor matching weapons.

Let me tell you that the book reading app I'm using recently,

[\\mi\\mi\\read\\app\\\\] has a lot of sources, a full range of books,

and fast updates!

If it’s just an exoskeleton, it is also possible to use ordinary weapons.

Although the assistance provided by the exoskeleton is not very strong, it can

at least allow soldiers to use heavier and stronger firearms and weapons on

the battlefield. The firepower comes.

The power armor is different. Apart from anything else, the triggers of

ordinary firearms are designed with the thickness of ordinary people’s

fingers. You can wear a tactical glove or something, but if you wear heavy

antifreeze gloves, your fingers It's almost as thick as a carrot, I'm afraid

that my fingers won't fit into the trigger ring.

Therefore, weapons equipped with power armor must be enlarged at least in the

size of the trigger.

More importantly, soldiers equipped with power armor are much stronger in

terms of strength and weight.

Under such circumstances, using ordinary firearms, they can even shoot

continuously with one-handed automatic rifle without holding and pressing the

gun. They can maintain the stability of the ballistic, so naturally they can

be equipped with such as 12.7mm revolving machine guns. A heavy weapon that

can only be used with a vehicle.

However, the 12.7mm caliber is still too powerful, except that the main battle

tank can't move, ordinary vehicles, even armored vehicles, can hardly

withstand the 12.7mm caliber armor-piercing incendiary bomb.

Chen Xin remembers that Yan Guo’s weapons research department used a car to

test when it was designing the 12.7mm revolving machine gun. Not to mention

the car was directly pierced, even the whole car was hit.

Therefore, it is inevitable to design a firearm that has moderate power and is

more suitable for soldiers equipped with power armor as ordinary weapons.

After all, you can't always carry a heavy machine gun that can tear ordinary

people into two sections to perform tasks, right? That's too much firepower.

"If you want to design a weapon for power armor, what do you think Lieutenant

Deng should design?" Chen Xin asked Lieutenant Deng with a record board. At

this time, Lieutenant Deng was testing the power armor made by Chen Xinxin.

This set of power armor was made by Chen Xinxin, and it used the prototype

design that Chen Xin had completed when he and Qin Lan made the power armor

for both of them.

And Chen Xin improved its power system, using the same small isotope

thermoelectric battery as the exoskeleton power supply, but the output power

has been amplified a bit, and some adjustments have been made in flexibility.

The entire power armor looks a bit like a medieval knight's plate armor,

because it lacks edges and corners and is quite round.

In terms of design structure, this power armor is actually the design of an

exoskeleton packaging deck. As a whole, a set of exoskeleton is designed

first, and then armor pieces are installed on the exoskeleton skeleton.

Unlike the two sets of Chen Xin and Qin Lan, the internal structure of those

two sets is a more complex power armor skeleton, not just an exoskeleton

armor.

The reason why Chen Xin designed this way is not that he is reluctant to give

the military a good thing, but that he needs to consider the manufacturing

cost and whether the manufacturing process can support the complex design

structure.

Anyone who knows World War II knows that Hans Military Industries is known for

its sophisticated design and high quality. Among them, the tanks are

especially obvious. The Tiger, Leopard, and Tiger King tanks are invincible on

the battlefield, but the corresponding ones are complicated. The structure and

a large number of parts are not only troublesome to repair, but also very

labor-intensive to build.

Corresponding to this is Suvia’s T34 tank, which has a simple structure and

strong skin. It is easier to repair if it is broken. It can withstand the toss

and can withstand the toss and is more manufactured even with the extensive

maintenance style of fur. Simple, even during the Defence of Stalingrad, there

is a story of the T34 manufactured by the tractor factory that went on the

battlefield without even painting.

By comparing the two, we can know that simplicity, reliability, and ease of

maintenance are very important for a country's logistics and armaments.

Of course, Chen Xin can create power armor with advanced technology,

comprehensive functions, and powerful strength, but such a thing is closer to

a rich toy such as Iron Man suit, rather than a military equipment that can be

deployed on a large scale.

In addition, the country is now mass-producing exoskeletons. Using a

production line and using a large number of parts of the same specification

can also reduce manufacturing investment and facilitate faster production.

Lieutenant Deng didn't feel much about this ~www.mtlnovel.com~ The power armor

on his body already made him quite satisfied.

Although it was an action-feedback power armor, he didn't feel any slowness in

response. Basically, while his body was moving, the power armor had already

responded, and the efficiency was very good.

As for the question about weapons that Chen Xin asked, Lieutenant Deng thought

for a while and said: "I think it is necessary to have a stable and reliable

automatic rifle. Although I see many weapons in games or science fiction works

are quite tall, what kind of electromagnetic? , Gauss, laser and so on, but

it’s still simple and reliable, and it’s good to be able to continuously and

stably output firepower."

Chen Xin nodded, not surprised by this. A good gun does not have high

precision and a fast rate of fire. More importantly, it is reliable and

stable. Otherwise, the AK47 will not be the world's most produced firearm. ,

Even used from World War II to now.

"I understand, I will pay attention to this." Chen Xin recorded Ensign Deng's

opinion, and then asked him: "Do you think there is any improvement in this

power armor?"

"It's good in all aspects, but our special forces will carry a lot of things

when performing missions. How do you install this power armor? Is it an

external carrying device?" Lieutenant Deng asked a very critical question.

In various film and television works and video games, it is usually not

considered how the characters carry materials. The former is for aesthetics

and visual effects, while the latter has a versatile backpack space, and even

the action of digging things is not required.

But in reality it is definitely not possible. Even Chen Xin himself has built

a silo behind his power armor. This power armor for the military must have a

place to load things, otherwise, ammunition and other things. There is no

place to put things at all.
