Everyone: Are mechanics weak? I wake up and rectify the natural disaster

What do you think of 'Antimatter on Ship'?

This question is very untechnical...

Of course the mental dolls raised their hands in approval!

Who doesn't like weapons technology that is a level higher than the current "mass-produced ship equipment"?

Nowadays, without mentioning the mental Rubik’s Cube system,

Among the conventional ship equipment of mass-produced ships, weapons, defense, and avionics have indeed been improved.

...It can even be said that there are more than a few, it has been improved a lot.

Especially armor.

All the armor went to T6, which was outrageous.

In terms of weapons, due to the unlimited use of massive hard lights, there has also been a huge improvement.

Only energy has always been embarrassing.

——The vast majority of mass-produced ships, whether military or civilian, still use T3 cold fusion reactors.

...It's really embarrassing.

Considering the role of the energy system in the ship, it is appropriate to say 'brain-body upside down'.

But no way.

Energy is no better than weapons and defense, and this system is not suitable for 'use-ism'.

Su Wen could casually equip mass-produced ships with hard light kinetic energy cannons and nano-grid resistant steel armor because of the gains from the Ark of Life and the Ether Dragon.

But it is impossible to continue to slap the head and change the cold fusion reactor into a hard light reactor...

First of all, I didn’t understand the technology thoroughly.

The latter is T6 level energy technology,

They are all on the same level as dark matter reactors, dark energy reactors, and mental cube energy reactors.

The empire didn't have any technical foundation in this area, so it rushed into action... basically waiting for a technical accident to occur.

Secondly, based on the above reasons, an energy system with too low reliability will not pass the safety review.

When it comes to things like energy, it doesn't mean that the more awesome the better.

Any type of energy is dangerous to a certain extent.

Even in the pre-interstellar era, this was the same.

Nuclear fusion is an artificial sun. Are there no fire accidents involving electric vehicles?

When the internal combustion engine was first invented, some people described it as "forcibly controlling a four-stroke cycle bomb", not to mention steam power.

All energy systems should have 'reliability' as their top priority.

It is very undesirable to skip development. The technology line of 'energy' should be slowly climbed up step by step.

Before T4's antimatter energy was figured out, Su Wen had no idea of ​​making a leap forward and trying to directly develop T6's hard light energy.

Can't do anything.

Step by step is the safest approach.

The characteristic of 'stable' itself means high returns in terms of technological development.

If you don't make mistakes, you will generate positive returns compared to the losses caused by making mistakes every day.

"The 'Positron Reactor' is theoretically a T4-level energy technology, right?"

Su Wen looked at St. Louis on the right side of the long table.

"According to our standards, it is T4. Compared with the average level of the star field, both T4 and T5 are acceptable."

In serious situations, even car kings like St. Louis look dignified.

That soft yet steady smile was obviously imitating a certain initial mental human form.

It was unimaginable that this guy would break his waist while riding on Su Wen.

"It's better to be rigorous, there is no need to be too exaggerated,"

Su Wen waved his hand,

"T4 is just T4, we don't pay attention to this here."

"The key is that the technology applied must be reliable enough."

"Not to mention how easy it would be to form a siege by friendly forces if it was too crudely built and easily exploded during battle.

The loss of positronium alone is enough to cause pain.

We now only have one anti-particle cage, and no matter how high the output is, it is limited. We must use all the good steel on the blade. "

People are really fickle.

When I inspected the 'Antiparticle Cage' two days ago, I thought that it could collect dozens of kilograms of positrons in less than two days, and the output was really impressive;

Now Su Wen starts to feel that it is too little.

...no way.

Once the excitement of 'new megastructure completed' and 'new resource output' passed,

His thinking naturally returned to the most realistic daily necessities.

"The reason why I suggest you consider using positronium on cruisers is also because of this consideration,"

Su Wen frowned and said,

“For the capital ship, using positron energy is of course a good choice.

There is nothing wrong with upgrading energy technology;

But if we also build a positron light cannon...

What should be said is that with the number and tonnage of our battleships, the consumption is too great. "

Beside them, Frederick and New Jersey both looked thoughtful and nodded.

The efficiency of the battleship's main gun in consuming ammunition is definitely far higher than that of light ships.

Whether it is firing live ammunition or beams, a large amount of positronium must be consumed.

Especially the beam.

Energy weapons are good, but the cost is really high.

If this live ammunition weapon is just 'high consumption',

Beam type energy weapons are equivalent to spraying out.

Otherwise, at the beginning,

When Su Wen saw those out-of-control Omnic "Star Stone" battleships with five anti-neutron beams above their heads,

Not that surprising:

What the hell, why does Anti-Neutron require no money?

T6-level antimatter particles are something that no one else dares to use.

This thing can be used on doomsday weapons like 'neutron jet'.

Not cabbage from the field.

... Even the cabbage in the field cannot be harvested like this.

——Use the 'Anti-Neutron Beam' to deal with a bunch of little Karami whose average level is at most T2 level.

What is this concept?

How many oil fields do you have at home?

have to say,

Those guys really opened Boss Su's eyes.

If it were Su Wen himself,

At present, even the 'positron jet', which is lower than the 'antineutron beam',

He also doesn’t want to implement it into active service.

That's not necessary.

We are still at the stage where cost-effectiveness is important.

...certainly.

If we have to calculate it based on 'cost-effectiveness', the 'space torpedo' will be a more cost-effective choice than the 'live ammunition main gun'.

"In my opinion, it may be possible to design a mine patrol that is specialized in lightning strike capabilities based on existing technology,"

Su Wen tried to describe his idea,

He actually doesn't care whether what he says is professional and feasible enough.

The humanoids around me don't care about those problems.

Not only will he not care, but he will also help him solve all feasible problems in every possible way.

All he needs to do is provide an idea,

"Under normal circumstances, maintaining the front line is still based on our existing 'hard light kinetic energy cannon', 'phase laser', 'particle light spear' and other systems.

The lightning cruiser equipped with a 'positron space torpedo' was waiting for an opportunity on the second line.

It can rely on its strong maneuverability, as well as its long-distance delivery capability with sufficient range and rate of fire,

At the critical moment, place the 'Positron Air Mine' at the right location to achieve an unexpected wave of damage....

...What do you think? "

...

Su Wen's idea is feasible to a large extent.

Although the description is a bit general and abstract.

But everyone here understood what he meant.

To put it bluntly... just rely on the power of anti-matter weapons to penetrate the soul with one shot?

It is not impossible.

In fact, today's empire has weapons with similar ideas.

The 'Space Distortion Warhead' is something not much different from it.

Regardless of range, reliability, and kill type, their roles even overlap somewhat.

...Of course, since the above shortcomings have been mentioned, they naturally cannot overlap.

"In terms of range, the positron air mine is estimated to be much higher than the space distortion warhead,"

St. Louis said,

“It’s not like one or two kilometers with mosquito legs, it’s probably twice as many.

The projection capabilities required by both sides are also very different. "

Even if the 'space distortion warhead' could be integrated into a carrier-based aircraft weapon, it would actually be a super-castrated version that has been shrunk and cut off countless times.

Using relatively primitive means such as quantum vacuum implosion bombs to achieve the effect of 'space distortion',

Inevitably, this results in an extremely large missile warhead.

The 'Mosquito' can carry it because it is equipped with a more advanced Rubik's Cube version, not the quantum version.

Without the use of Rubik's Cube energy technology, this thing would not be distributed to carrier-based aircraft.

The destroyer is difficult to carry on its back.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be necessary to design a large launch bay that can only be installed on a battleship.

If we follow Su Wen's idea and replace it with a positron warhead...

"Maybe it can really add a trump card to the empire's regular mass-produced fleet?"

She looked at the others and guessed uncertainly.
