Chapter 803: Qin Lan's reminder

5 min read1,255 words

In the laboratory, Chen Xinzheng and Qin Lan watched this laser weapon test

together.

After the researchers who came to Chen Xin told him that the laser weapon had

made a breakthrough, he and Qin Lan came to the laboratory together, and in

order to show him the research results, the scientific research team prepared

this experiment.

In front of Chen Xin was the same laser weapon he had seen before, but

apparently some improvements had been made.

And 20 meters in front of it is a new combat sub-body carapace as a target.

"Get started, let me see what breakthroughs you have made." After speaking,

Chen Xin motioned the researcher on the side to start testing.

"The fourth experimental laser irradiation weapon, the third damage test, the

target combat sub-body carapace, the purpose of the experiment is to test the

damage effect of the laser irradiation weapon on alien creatures." It is still

the researcher responsible for reporting the scene when Chen Xinlai was

watching the test last time. After finishing the experimental project, he did

not ask Chen Xin again this time, so he said loudly: "The experiment begins!"

With that, another researcher pressed the button on the console.

It is slightly different from the scene Chen Xin saw last time. Although a

laser beam is also shining on the target this time, this time it is not

ablation, but almost a second or two after the laser is irradiated. , There

was an explosion on the carapace that was the target, but the explosion was

very small, only blasting a hole in the carapace and splitting it in half.

This made Chen Xin involuntarily raised his eyebrows, and looked at the

researcher aside with a little surprise: "How did you do this?"

"We changed our thinking." Faced with Chen Xin's surprise, the project team

leader explained to Chen Xin: "Before, we have always used continuous laser to

continuously irradiate the target, and use thermal damage to achieve the goal

of melting and destroying the material. , This is also our main research

direction before, that is, using laser weapons to counter low and slow

targets.

But what you said to us last time, Academician Chen, especially the metaphor

of drying the sea, made us realize that our research direction needs to be

adjusted. What we have to deal with is not a slow and small aircraft, but a

huge body and a fast moving speed. , And an alien creature with a strong

defense.

Therefore, we replaced the original continuous laser with a pulsed laser. At

first, we planned to use high-power density laser irradiation to achieve the

effect of laser cutting. However, in the experiment, we found that the pulsed

laser will produce considerable kinetic energy impact at a certain frequency,

so The machine was adjusted and the kinetic energy impact generated by the

high-frequency laser was used to damage the target.

This kind of adjustment is not easy, but fortunately, we have done some

research in this area before. After several trial adjustments, we have the

test machine that Academician Chen you see now. The effect is pretty good at

present. "

After listening to the explanations of the scientific researchers, Chen Xin

nodded clearly.

It’s no wonder that the project team came up with a new experimental model so

quickly. It used to have researched in this area. Now, relying on the

performance of the door, it has this laser that is already very impressive in

Chen Xin’s eyes. arms.

Although in Chen Xin's opinion this laser weapon is still a long way from

being put into practical use on the battlefield, on the whole, it is already a

promising laser weapon.

It only takes some more time to research and improve, and it can be installed

in the army.

"The results you have achieved this time are very good, and this laser weapon

is also very promising, but my advice to you is not to give up the previous

research." Chen Xin affirmed the results of the project team, but also felt

that they There is no need to give up the previous research.

Although the laser weapon was not powerful enough and the damage effect was

not good enough in the last test, it is also a scientific research route that

is worth investing in research and development.

"Academician, please rest assured that we have not given up on continuous

laser research. It is just that our research team is not equipped with enough

staff to carry out research on two topics at the same time, so we have

concentrated our staff on pulsed laser research." The team leader explained to

Chen Xin that the previous research was also the result of their hard work,

and the research has not failed, so naturally they will not give up casually.

Even if it does not have practical value, it will be reserved for technical

accumulation, not to mention that it is a research project with the same

prospects.

Hearing the group leader's words, Chen Xin nodded in satisfaction.

Although he had been upset about the development of new weapons before, now

after Qin Lan's comfort and watching a successful experiment, he has resolved

the irritation in his heart.

This made Chen Xin feel relieved, and he was about to go back to start his

work again, but Qin Lan on the side grabbed him.

"Alan, what's the matter?" Chen Xin was a little strange, not understanding

why Qin Lan was holding him.

"Aren't you researching new weapons? Isn't this kind of laser weapon!" Qin Lan

said to Chen Xin in a low voice, emotionally slightly excited: "I have fought

in an underground cave environment before. This kind of laser weapon is

comparable to a live ammunition weapon. Easy to use!"

Hearing Qin Lan's words, Chen Xin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly

reacted.

Yes, laser weapons are indeed very suitable for use in underground spaces.

They are non-physical weapons. Naturally, there is no problem of ricocheting

caused by live ammunition weapons.

As for the question of insufficient power or excessive power, this is not a

problem for Chen Xin.

After all, laser weapons are energy weapons. The output power can be

controlled by adjustment. There is no such thing as missiles or artillery

shells that the explosive power of fixed ammunition is fixed and

uncontrollable.

Moreover, the size of this laser weapon is not large, and it can be mounted on

the Bobcat assault vehicle that Chen Xin was optimistic about before, and used

as a mobile laser launch platform to provide fire support for troops in

underground caves.

Thinking of this, Chen Xin was also excited. He hugged Qin Lan abruptly, and

after kissing her on the face, he asked the researchers on the side excitedly:

"How long can you build another laser like this? arms?"

"Um, this..." The researcher was a little overwhelmed by Chen Xin's sudden

excitement, but quickly replied: "If there are enough raw materials, it will

take about three days to install and debug. The technology is all Mature, just

assemble the parts. Now with 3D printing equipment, it is very convenient to

produce these parts."

Hearing what the researcher said, Chen Xin nodded very satisfied, and said to

him: "Then please make another laser weapon like this... No, two. Make one of

the previous one. Give you five. Is there enough time in a few days? Tell me

what is missing and I will solve it."

"Enough." The researcher replied affirmatively.
