Chapter 27 Refined Alloys
Faced with Qin Feiyun's different opinion, Hu Ming just smiled and said, "Good idea, but let's not talk about the fact that the materials we have at the moment simply don't support the manufacture of tanks with sufficient power."
Given the size and strength of those mutated beasts, how many tanks do you think would be needed to guarantee a head-on kill?
The original powerful mutant beast will also be much larger than before it mutated.
This is beyond doubt.
Hu Ming's idea for the airplane came about because he had witnessed many battles against source energy beasts along the way with Wu Ou and the others.
The aircraft he is designing now is not a high-altitude fighter jet, but a medium- and low-altitude manned fighter jet.
Even when necessary, the aircraft's own cannons and bomb bays are not the primary means of attack; instead, the guns held by the people on board are relied upon.
Although most of the Source Beasts have increased in size, only a small number of those that live on the ground still retain a decent but very limited jumping ability.
Excluding those special individuals that have evolved to have ranged attack capabilities, most Source Beasts lack the ability to retaliate against aerial attacks.
Especially those that are larger and relatively slow-moving are more likely to become targets for attacks from the air!
Since it doesn't need to ascend to high altitudes, it naturally won't attract too much attention from birds, reducing the threat of direct aerial attacks.
In addition, air transport is much more convenient for transportation. Not to mention the snow and ice outside, the wildly growing plants and the terrain changed by collapsed buildings will put tanks and the like at a great disadvantage.
"Look at this, I call it the Hummingbird Low-Altitude Fighter." Hu Ming turned around and picked up the simulation diagram of the aircraft he designed from the table.
The data listed above includes various parameters such as material strength and micro-angles, making it a clearly professional design solution.
"Old Hu, this..." After just one glance, Commander Tian had already figured out how to use this small fighter jet and its advantages.
Qin Feiyun and the others also saw the data above, and when they looked at Hu Ming again, their eyes showed a hint of respect.
"Mr. Hu, your design is indeed very suitable for improving the combat effectiveness of the Northern Base at present, but we also have our own advantages."
We can directly modify the existing cars appropriately…
"Where's the oil?" Hu Ming asked a crucial question directly.
"You guys aren't planning to try using animal fat, are you?!"
Energy issues are a major challenge facing the entire planet as it attempts to restore basic national systems.
After all, energy scientists can't perform matter conversion; they can't directly turn water into gasoline!
"That is indeed a problem, but it's also a problem that your design must address, isn't it?"
As they spoke, their eyes met, and they both laughed simultaneously.
"Use electricity!" the two said in unison.
Commander Tian chuckled. "Haha, it seems you two have a good understanding. I imagine you'll be able to work together to develop these defensive weapons suitable for our northern base!"
Commander Tian directly pulled up the right hands of the two men and placed them together to form a handshake.
Only the true high-ranking officers know how much survival pressure the northern base is right now, and only the guards who grit their teeth and hunt down mutated beasts in the freezing cold outside know best!
Northern base, this is tough!
"Commander Tian, we will work together to overcome the difficulties as soon as possible!" Qin Feiyun said, giving Commander Tian a sense of reassurance.
"Alright, alright, then I won't bother you anymore! Old Yu, teach the kid a lesson and wait until you get home, I'm leaving!" Commander Tian helped Yu Xing out of his somewhat awkward situation.
After the door closed, Yu Lei narrowed his eyes and glanced at Qin Feiyun. "If you want to take the lead here, it's not enough to just convince Old Hu."
After saying that, he picked up the metal from the ground and continued making parts with another person.
"Old Hu, we all know very well that the energy problem is difficult to solve, not to mention the Northern Base, but for the entire Dragon Kingdom and even the whole world."
Building a power plant is a necessary choice.
But before that, we need to solve the food problem and directly manufacture deterrent weapons; at least our tanks require less energy to operate than your aircraft.
He unfolded the blueprints and pointed to a mark on them, saying, "I know you're planning to use aerodynamic principles to reduce the pressure on the power system caused by the aircraft's weight, but with the metal materials we have now, it's basically impossible to mass-produce such a structure."
"puff!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Lei couldn't help but chuckle.
Not to mention Qin Feiyun, even the three people with him glared at him.
"What? Do you think Feiyun is wrong?" A long-haired woman with glasses widened her eyes, looking angry.
"It's nothing. I just want to say that if you can't do something, don't assume that others can't either!" he said, tossing the completed part to Qin Feiyun.
"This weight..." Just by handling it and using his mental perception, Qin Feiyun discovered that this metal was much lighter than he had imagined.
"Another thing, Xiao Qin, I'll take the liberty of calling you that."
In fact, we can temporarily solve the energy problem.
In another room, Wu Ou arrived at a urinal.
slam-la-
It's like turning a tap to its maximum, but what comes out is gasoline! And it's standard 95 octane!
Yes, under Mr. Hu's "guidance", Wu Ou not only mastered the formulas of various alloys, but also the basic particle structure of gasoline, diesel and even petroleum.
That's why Old Hu is helping him hide his abilities. Even with such performance, once his abilities are confirmed, he will definitely be closely watched and used as a "production machine" to manufacture various urgently needed items!
Being willing to use one's abilities to contribute to the country and being completely controlled by the country as a human machine are two different concepts!
However, even if Wu Ou has this ability, it is unrealistic to expect him to supply energy to numerous energy-demanding areas on his own.
Therefore, Hu Ming's plan is to use the new alloy material that Qin Feiyun currently has to create a fuselage that is estimated to be very lightweight.
Combined with aerodynamic configuration and his designed mechanical power structure to enhance energy conversion efficiency, he was able to manufacture ten aircraft in a short time and then launch a sweeping attack on several nearby animal herds that had stopped migrating.
This will alleviate the food needs of the entire northern base for a period of time.
Subsequently, the first batch of potatoes ripened, and both the winery and the thermal power plant were almost ready for construction.
"How is it? This is our current plan. If you join us, the process will be executed even more smoothly." Hu Ming extended his right hand.
The look of surprise in Qin Feiyun's eyes lasted for several seconds.
"I understand, we are willing to fully cooperate in the implementation of this plan!"
