"Good job. Can this satellite be completed by early January?"
"It's the beginning of January, but now it's already the end of the month. [Fengyun.com]" Jiang Lin smiled bitterly, scratched his messy hair, and sighed, "I'll try my best. If the shelter 27 side can handle the key issues quickly, As for the cooling of components, we can finish it very quickly.”
"I'll go to Shelter No. 27 in a while, and I'll help you with this." Jiang Chen said.
In early January, Starlink Trading will start its second satellite launch plan S. According to the plan, the plan will launch S high-power communication satellites to provide free WiFi services throughout New Zealand to improve the tourism rating of the Pannu Islands. Of course, Jiang Chen would not foolishly tell others that it was a quantum communication satellite, and Starlink Trading would not give any explanation as to why the satellite could provide network services with less than latency.
Taking into account New Zealand's diplomatic relations with neighboring countries such as New Guinea, Australia, and New Zealand, the satellite will also provide paid ifi services in some areas of these countries. As for the specific charges, Xinghuan Trading will send salesmen to negotiate with the country's telecom operators to find a reasonable price.
It is expected that the number of people using iFi on a monthly basis will exceed 500,000, which will ensure a balance between maintenance fees and income.
"If you are going to go to Shelter 27, take this with you for me." Jiang Lin seemed to have remembered something. He walked to the workbench and removed a palm-sized circuit board from the top. .
"What's this?" Jiang Chen took the circuit board in his hand and looked at it for a moment, but he couldn't see anything about it.
"Good stuff. When the Zhao Group's caravan was traveling from the Jinling area, they exchanged it for a can from a scavenger." Jiang Lin chuckled, "The main control of the power system of the xk92 bipedal combat mecha. Chip, this is the first time I have seen such a complete sample."
"Can you build a mecha?" Jiang Chen couldn't help but be moved.
However, Jiang Lin touched his nose and looked away awkwardly.
"Mecha... I'm afraid this will disappoint you. However, the relevant technology has been analyzed from the main control chip of this power system, and the performance of our existing K1 mechanical exoskeleton, T-3, and T-4 powered armor has been analyzed. There’s nothing wrong with taking it up a notch.”
Bai was very happy.
But it's better than nothing.
Jiang Chen rolled his eyes at Jiang Lin, put the palm-sized chip back into the box, and stuffed it into his pocket.
"If there's nothing else. Then I'll leave first."
"Well, there's nothing else. I heard that the steel airship at Camp 27 is almost finished. You can go and take a look. I saw it when I went to Camp 27 for business last time. It's quite spectacular." Jiang Lin laughed. said. Watched him leave.
…
When Jiang Chen arrived at Camp 27 by car, he saw the majesty of the airship.
It was a fortress made of steel, floating above the open space a hundred meters away from Camp 27, at a low altitude of about 20 meters. The fortress is tethered by tough graphene cables and connected by steel scaffolding. Engineering robots and engineers worked together to construct it. Under the flying snowflakes, the remaining 50% of the project was completed.
It is a hundred meters long and more than twenty wide, with a total of three decks. Its curved belly is like a seal's belly, while the bow that opens and closes is as ferocious as a shark.
The flat wings on both sides are connected to the large YZ-51 scroll engines, which are used to provide forward thrust for this huge airship. The movable robotic arm suspended directly below the airship provides a harbor for the YZ-51 to dock. The suspension cabin suspended by a hundred-meter-long graphene can deploy up to four Hunter Tiger II tanks vertically to the ground at the same time.
The layout of the airship is in an inverted "concave" shape, with the top deck being the runway. Aurora-20 is allowed to take off and land vertically. A large amount of space inside the airship is a helium chamber that provides buoyancy. Only the middle deck and one-tenth of the internal space are available for personnel activities. The lower suspended deck carries supplies and munitions. It also leaves room for modification of a Type 50 J-type electromagnetic gun, which can cause devastating strikes on long-range ground hard targets.
The main structure of the airship uses superplastic steel intermittent armor and high-strength aluminum foam materials. While retaining a certain level of live ammunition protection, the net weight of the airship is reduced to the greatest extent. Of course, the protection of the airship still relies on the cooperation of nitrogen shields and laser anti-missile, as well as the suppression of local air defense units by ground forces.
In a practical sense, the main value of this airship is definitely not to fly to the enemy's head and drop bombs like in World War II, but to play the role of a "land aircraft carrier."
It has a dead weight of less than 100 tons. It can carry 500 tons of weight. There is no need to pass through dangerous areas densely populated by alien species and zombies, minimizing the loss of long-distance march inland. Without taking into account the thermal weapons in the hands of hostile humans, the airship is indeed an artifact in the apocalypse!
After all, there are not many alien species that can fly at high altitudes.
According to the chief engineer of the airship design. At present, 50% of the project progress has been completed, and it will be completed in half a year at the latest. By then, the NAC's combat radius will be expanded to more than 500 kilometers, and the banner of order will also be passed to farther places.
Without staying outside Camp 27 for too long, Jiang Chen saw Xu Lu and Wang Zhaowu who greeted him at the door. After reviewing the Second Corps garrison, he followed Xu Lu to the underground shelter No. 27.
Inside the institute. Jiang Chen found Fang Weixian, who was busy around an electronic device the size of a watermelon with his colleagues who were also wearing white coats. I think that is the key component of quantum communication, but judging from his frown, it seems that solving this refrigeration problem will be a big hassle.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen didn't want to disturb him. He handed the chip to the assistant who was working in the institute, and then simply urged the development of quantum communication equipment.
Without staying any longer, Jiang Chen then went to the Institute of Biotechnology, found the person in charge, Wang Fangping, and explained the purpose of his visit.
The attacker who was shot by Ayesha last time is currently being interrogated at the Crescent Island military base. According to what Ivan said, that man refused to be tortured no matter what, and any wounds he suffered would heal at an incredible speed. So Jiang Chen thought of Wang Fangping, who was engaged in bioengineering research, hoping to find the answer from him.
"Extremely strong recovery ability? Without the help of machinery and medicine?" When he heard Jiang Chen's description, Wang Fangping was stunned for a moment, then frowned, "There are many ways to speed up recovery, right? There is one kind of gunshot wound from a sniper rifle... The hidden genetic code called toughness can achieve a similar effect."
Sun Jiao's hidden genetic code was tenacity, but Jiang Chen had seen the effect of that skill with his own eyes. He was able to stand up from a pool of blood despite being shot several times, but the cost was overdrafting his vitality. But despite this, Jiang Chen always felt that the attacker's ability had nothing to do with the genetic code.
What's more, it is impossible for genetic medicine to exist in this world.
"Besides genetic code, are there any other possibilities?" Jiang Chen asked.
"Other possibilities... there are actually many. Some dangerous human body modifications can also achieve the same effect, but such modifications usually cause adverse consequences. By the way, speaking of it... mutants seem to fit your description." Wang Fangping used He said in a half-joking tone.
