Although Huo Shaoheng was excited in his heart, his face remained calm.
"... Probably so." He said quietly, "Can the robotic arm find a fixed position?"
The idea of the final assembly experts is to use this robotic arm to grasp the small submarine, and then use mechanical power to fish the submarine up.
It sounds like there is no technical content, as long as the horsepower is enough.
But when you actually implement it, you know that this is not only a physical job, but also a technical job.
First, it is necessary to control the camera on the robotic arm to take all-round shots to obtain more data parameters. Otherwise, if you hold it in the wrong place, it will cause great damage to the submarine.
Secondly, the robotic arm must conduct metal detection on the seabed around the submarine to beware of traps and explosives. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.
Finally, which directions should the robotic arm grasp most securely and with the least effort, and ensure that the steel thorns can penetrate into the submarine for internal sampling? This is a comprehensive knowledge involving materials engineering, fluid dynamics, and marine geology. All aspects of content.
While controlling the robotic arm to take pictures of the small mini-submarine, the assembly experts analyzed and said: "It seems that this submarine has indeed been here for many years. Look at the shellfish and seaweed on the submarine. , black, just like a large piece of dried rock. Wow, the good titanium alloy material has been ruined like this... "
The main material of submarines is titanium alloy. The better the quality of the titanium alloy, the higher the performance of the submarine.
Sometimes, technology is no longer the threshold, but materials always are.
If big countries don't block technology, but only block materials, they can make small countries stare.
Huo Shaoheng calmly said nothing.
Four hours later, the camera on the robotic arm finally captured the entire top, bottom, left, and right of the small mini-submarine.
Then detect whether there are mines and other explosives on the seabed around the submarine.
At this time, other general assembly experts, Huo Shaoheng and Zhao Liangze, replayed the scenes just taken.
Even Zhao Liangze has never taken these close-range high-definition pictures.
Because he does not have large equipment such as a robotic arm, he can dive into the deep sea and take photos at close range.
He only has the sea drone Jiaolong, which can only sink to five thousand meters before it can no longer sink.
The place where the submarine sank happened to be an ocean trench, at least eight thousand meters from the sea surface. It was almost one of the few deep ocean trenches in the world.
He concentrated on the high-definition pictures displayed on the sixty-inch screen and silently compared them with the pictures he had taken.
The experts in the final assembly are professionals after all. They can roughly analyze the materials and structure of this small mini-submarine at a glance at the high-definition pictures.
Facing the high-definition pictures and preliminary technical analysis of the small mini-submarine in front of them, the experts were so surprised that their eyes almost popped out.
"... This, this, this submarine is not made of titanium alloy! Is it... a cement submarine?!"
"Oh my God! In my lifetime! I thought I would never see a cement submarine serving at sea in my lifetime!"
Several assembly experts almost rushed to the big screen, tremblingly touching the high-definition picture of the submarine on the big screen with their hands, as if they could touch the real submarine shell.
"Cement submarine?" Huo Shaoheng and Zhao Liangze looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes. "Isn't the cement submarine still in the model stage in the laboratory?"
"It's the model stage, but all the benefits are obvious to all!" A final assembly equipment expert gestured excitedly, "We all know that no matter how powerful a submarine is, as long as it is discovered, it will only become a target for attack by the other party."
"So how to conceal oneself has always been the most important aspect of submarine research and development, bar none."
"When looking for various concealment materials, the German cement anti-magnetic armor during World War II came into everyone's sight. This was simply a genius invention and inspired weapons experts from all over the world."
"If the submarine shell is made of special cement with special chemical components and covered with the silencer tiles on the outer layer of the submarine, the outer coating of the submarine can have double sound insulation and degaussing anti-submarine effects."
"Because the cement shell can not only absorb the sound waves of the enemy's detection sonar, but also shield the sound waves generated by itself, and will not cause the abnormal seabed magnetic field caused by traditional titanium alloy submarines when sneaking on the seabed."
"Existing submarines are made of special titanium alloy materials. This material has good sides, such as being light, strong and durable, but it also has many inherent flaws that no country can overcome. For example, it cannot shield sound waves and cannot eliminate the effects of its own actions. The magnetic field variation produced by time.”
"It wasn't until a few years ago that Russia's Ruby Central Arms Design Bureau proposed the idea of a 'cement submarine' that these problems were suddenly solved!"
"Because of the submarine's cement shell, first of all, it can easily break through the 1,800-foot diving limit of ordinary submarines and sink to the deepest seabed by relying on its own gravity."
"Secondly, its coating can disable all detection and anti-submarine systems that rely on sound and magnetic fields."
"In the end, it's just a cement fortress! It's an indestructible shield! If it's built properly, even nuclear weapons can't blow it open!"
The final assembly expert's eyes lit up like a tomb robber upon seeing a rare treasure, and he discussed the benefits of "cement submarines" at length.
Huo Shaoheng had heard a little about "cement submarines".
He sent his own people to lurk in the Russian KGB a few years ago, partly because of the new submarine "concrete submarine".
But as far as he knows, Russia's "cement submarines" are still in drawings and models, and no submarines that can actually be used in actual combat have been developed, and they are all very small, much smaller than the small mini-submarine in front of them.
They previously identified this submarine as a "small mini" compared to traditional titanium alloy submarines.
If it is really a "cement submarine", then its size is already a proper "Big Mac".
"Is it really a cement submarine?! That's really powerful." Zhao Liangze murmured to himself, "But it's so heavy, how can it rise from the bottom of the sea?"
"Look at its flanks, yes, this is the place." The expert from the final assembly used a laser pointer to circle an area on the big screen. "When you move, there will be sliding wings sticking out here, which can not only reduce resistance, but also speed up." . If nuclear power is used as the power system, it will be very good, and it will have unlimited endurance under the sea!"
"In fact, the power system and operating system of cement submarines are inherently superior to traditional submarines, because the power system of cement submarines does not need to consider weight and can be added as much as possible."
Huo Shaoheng and Zhao Liangze finally understood after the various introductions from the general assembly experts.
The cement submarine in front of us named "Cereus I" is at least twenty years ahead of the world's submarine technology!
"Chief, let's not talk about the contents of the submarine. Even if there is only one shell left of the submarine, it is still worth our trip!"
"Yes, yes! I didn't expect that there is such a good thing here!"
"No wonder this operation is so secret! Worth it! Great value for money!"
These people in the General Assembly of the Chinese Empire Military Headquarters are all knowledgeable people. They worked hard before just to complete a task assigned by their superiors.
But at this time, they were already determined to salvage the submarine from the bottom of their hearts!
Many people can't wait to issue a military order. If they can't salvage it, they will live here forever!
Because they are also experts in maritime weapons research, there are several submarine experts.
They rushed to Huo Shaoheng, shook hands with him one by one, and said sincerely: "Chief, if this submarine cannot be salvaged, we will apply to live here."
"We heard that you have set up a base here. That's amazing! Your strategic vision is unparalleled! - Can we use your base? We guarantee rent!"
Several experts in their forties and fifties looked at Huo Shaoheng longingly, hoping that he would agree to their request.
Huo Shaoheng couldn't laugh or cry, but he still looked calm and calm, saying, "Don't worry, everyone. No matter what happens, we will salvage this submarine. We will study it for you when we get back."
He paused and then added: "If the owner of the submarine allows it."
"The owner of the submarine? Does this submarine have an owner? Who is it?" an expert asked curiously.
"Cereus." Huo Shaoheng said leisurely, his heart suddenly softened.
The name came out from the tip of his tongue and collided with his lips and teeth, reminding him of Gu Nianzhi's soft lips.
Closing his eyes and quickly driving out this inappropriate charm from his mind, Huo Shaoheng straightened his face and said, "As long as she agrees."
"Cereus? Is there really such a person?" The assembly experts were even more surprised.
They thought it was just the submarine's name.
Gu Nianzhi's English name is only known by his close friends and colleagues. Of course, ordinary people, such as these military assembly experts, have no way of knowing.
Huo Shaoheng nodded and said with a smile: "Since this name is written on it, there must be this person. As long as you find her and get her permission, you can study this submarine."
The experts looked at each other and wisely shut up, not continuing to argue with Huo Shaoheng about the ownership of the name "Cereus".
Anyway, he discovered it, whatever he said is right.
If they can't get along with him, they may never have the chance to work with this submarine that they dream of.
Everyone calmed down and continued to operate the robotic arm.
Soon eight hours passed and it was time for the second group of experts to come on stage.
Before Song Jinning woke up, Huo Shaoheng asked Zhao Liangze to take the lead here while he found a place to sleep.
I don't know if it's because there is indeed a problem with the magnetic field here, or because he has been so absorbed in it that he has been thinking about it day and night. In short, Huo Shaoheng had just closed his eyes when he saw a tall, thin man wearing a khaki windbreaker standing. In front of him.
The man looked at him and smiled, with deep regret in his smile, then bowed to him and slowly disappeared.
Huo Shaoheng woke up with a start, and the man's regretful smile flashed in his mind. —Isn’t that what Gu Xiangwen looks like in Ye Xuan’s photo? !
