Chapter 666: logistics

Will the war last a long time? Chen Xin didn't know this, but he felt that at

least he must be prepared for a long-term war.

Moreover, the development of corrosion-resistant armor, even if the armor is

developed and the war is over, and the armor is not useful, it can still be

used as a technical reserve and will not be wasted.

What's more, Chen Xin, who consciously has system assistance, does not think

that he has to develop a corrosion-resistant armor that needs to be delayed

until the end of the war.

After the task was assigned, the researchers under Chen Xin did not waste

time, and soon began the research and development of anti-corrosion coatings

and anti-corrosion armor.

Chen Xin himself was also involved, and started the design of a new model of

Titan.

At this time, the entire dome city has been operating efficiently, and various

tasks are proceeding in an orderly manner. Although there are still many

things that need to be handled by Chen Xin, after Chen Xin entrusted most of

the work to Tang Tang to do it, he did so. You can devote most of your energy

to the design of the new Titan.

The large-scale application and actual combat test of the universal model of

the Titan on the battlefield has made this model of Titan very revealing, but

it has indeed exposed many problems.

First of all, just like the zoo of the Iron Cross at the time, although it is

indeed advanced and easy to use, the maintenance of Titan is still a very

troublesome thing.

So far, in the entire war zone, only the Titan Maintenance Room and Titan

Driver Training Base left over from the original scientific research center

can provide complete Titan maintenance and preparation services. In other

areas, only temporary maintenance points can be set up to supplement

ammunition and replace consumables. Easy maintenance.

However, this level of maintenance obviously cannot guarantee the use of

Titans on the battlefield.

It’s very common to light up the ammunition on the battlefield against alien

creatures. After all, when the overwhelming locust plague-like alien creature

descendants come towards you, the only thing you can do is either turn around

and run or buckle. Hold the trigger and don't let go, send out all the bullets

in the barrel.

But apart from replenishing ammunition, the biggest problem for Titan is the

wear and tear of outer armor and joint parts.

The wear and tear of the joint parts was revealed when Chen Xin took the

Titans to the Southwest for disaster relief and used them for the first time.

He tried to solve this problem, and he did make a lot of improvements,

replacing parts with better quality, adjusting the structure, and reducing

wear as much as possible...

However, these parts are still easily damaged when used with high intensity,

although they are only parts relative to other parts.

Therefore, in the previous improvement, Chen Xin and the researchers simply

designed these parts into replaceable types that can be disassembled cheaply.

Once damaged to a certain extent, the entire parts can be removed directly and

replaced with new ones.

And the old parts will not be thrown away. The worn-out parts are removed for

repair, and the other parts that are still intact can be reused.

Just replacing damaged parts requires a professional maintenance worker to do

it, and a professional site is needed.

Previously, because there were not many Titans in use, and they were not used

for combat missions with such high intensity. In addition, almost all Titans

were concentrated in the Titan training base and scientific research center.

Overall, the two maintenance points are complete. Enough.

But now the battlefield is fighting fiercely, and the Titans also have heavy

combat missions every day. Most of the time, the pilot can rest, and after the

body is maintained, they will be replaced and continue to go on.

This has maintained the number of Titans on the battlefield and ensured that

there are enough Titans to fight on the battlefield, but the consequence is

that the wear and tear of Titans is much higher than that of normal use.

The replacement parts consume a lot, and a large number of replacement parts

that can be recycled can only be sent to the training base and the preparation

room of the scientific research center that has now become the headquarters.

This undoubtedly affects the maintenance efficiency of Titan.

Therefore, Chen Xin intends to adopt a more convenient maintenance design in

the design of the new Titan, not only the easy replacement of parts, but also

the ability to set up simple maintenance points on the front line to complete

the maintenance of a Titan without making It relies too much on logistics.

Although so far, Titan's performance on the battlefield is not at all "too"

dependent on logistics.

The most critical problem that really caused this lack of logistical

maintenance is that the Titans are new equipment that is in the finalization,

research and development and trial phases. They do not have a large number of

armed forces, nor are they used in large quantities, so they have not been

established correspondingly. Establish a complete logistics support system.

It is precisely because of all of this that the Titans played well on the

battlefield, but at the same time the logistics maintenance is very difficult.

In fact, for modern warfare, it is no longer about fighting people, occupying

space, or relying on the victory of a battle to win the whole war.

What really determines the victory of a modern war is more logistics. It can

even be said that the key to military victory since the Napoleonic era has

become the success of logistics support.

This point, even on the battlefield with alien creatures, is also reflected.

In fact, from the comparison of the combat power of the two sides, although

the human army is not superior in individual strength, the military power and

various advanced weapons that mankind possesses are enough to beat the aliens.

However, the speed at which alien creatures replenish their children far

exceeds the speed at which humans can replenish equipment consumption on the

battlefield.

Humans can spend a week to build a bomb and transport it to the battlefield,

killing a bunch of alien creatures, but in this week, the alien creatures can

hatch the bomb and kill twice as many. The above new sub-body, and send them

to the battlefield. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

This is the most intuitive comparison of logistical supply capabilities

between humans and aliens at this time.

Therefore, for Chen Xin, the design of the new Titan must consider whether the

logistics can keep up, and whether the country's current production capacity

can meet the needs of large-scale production.

In addition, the more critical point is compatibility.

The design of the new Titan takes time. Although Chen Xin can quickly come up

with a suitable finalization plan, it takes time to arrange production, equip

the front line, and form combat effectiveness. Before this, it is undoubtedly

necessary to mass-produce the original. Universal Titan.

And this will also lead to the fact that after the new Titan is designed, the

army is equipped with more of the original General Titan.

If there are big differences between the two Titans, whether it is driving

mode or repair parts and repair methods, it will inevitably lead to various

use problems.

Although it is not that it cannot be overcome, as a designer, since he thinks

of it, he should avoid these problems.
