As soon as he entered the ship, Xie Yuan saw a Latina female Star Alliance officer standing in front of the door. He just saw Xie Yuan and wanted to say hello, and then he saw Congressman Anderson, the Director General of Pan Asia... and there were rumors that he died. The resurrected Shepard.
The entry of so many legendary figures made the sergeant a little at a loss, but she reacted quickly and immediately raised her hands and saluted: "Captain Xie Yuan, welcome back. Sirs, welcome to the SSV Guangfu, I am a communications technology soldier, Samantha Traynor, of Starlink Research and Development.”
"Well, take a break." Xie Yuan immediately saluted, then looked at Samantha and asked with concern, "Technical Department, I hope you won't be frightened by the second backup control system on this ship. .”
"What second set...oh...no, oh, sorry..."
Samantha didn't understand what she was talking about, but she suddenly thought of Xie Yuan's statement, her face turned pale, she apologized, and left immediately.
"Hahaha! The little girl needs to get used to it more." Xie Yuan smiled broadly at this.
"Yuan...she is your subordinate now." The director-general lowered his face and persuaded, "Anyway, don't scare the young people."
"Besides, you didn't realize something, did you?" Councilor Anderson took over, "Now that the special person is gone, you have to explain your new ship yourself, and my first question is what kind of second set The backup system would make our Samantha sick.”
"Ah... I'm so stupid." Xie Yuan shook his head, and then replied honestly:
"Well... from some of the XJ groups I have investigated, there is a type of harvest that is quite interesting and worth exploring."
"They are a sect that is extremely afraid of intelligent technology. They believe that AI technology will destroy the world, so they have used a relatively unique, but in their opinion, particularly applicable method to create a living biomass object as an auxiliary calculation. and ways to provide intelligent manipulation.”
"What is it?" Representative Anderson became interested.
"The DNA computer...operates in a manner that mimics the brain's electrical signals."
The main reason why Traynor was sent away was because he didn't want the technical soldiers to make things too unpleasant - because this sentence had another meaning, which was to use "clone human brains" to perform auxiliary calculations.
Does Congressman Anderson really not know about this stuff? He will definitely understand, but he will not be so stupid as to publicize something - and Xie Yuan also thinks that he will take care of him for the sake of the overall situation.
Sure enough, Anderson looked like he knew it all: "Oh, DNA computer technology, right? It's really a bit old-fashioned - try to dismantle it, our new spacecraft shouldn't have these old technologies - —On such a big ship, where is the DNA computer enough?!”
"I will arrange for someone to pay attention." Xie Yuan also heard the subtle hint and received it elegantly.
Then Xie Yuan also roughly promoted some "small" technologies on the ship - based on the capacitive armor principle he obtained on the first-generation nanosuit prototype, he covered the outer surface of the adamantine deck with a layer of basic voltage adaptation. Characteristic nanofilm.
"How does it compare to the Slareth armor unique to us Asaris?"
Vasseur, who had always been mediocre in the team, felt some interest and asked aloud.
Asari-made Sraleth armor can withstand the immense heat and kinetic energy of starship weapons. Once attacked with directed energy, a web of carbon nanotubes covered with chemical vapor deposited diamond compresses in the mass effect region into an ultra-dense layer that can withstand extreme temperatures—and is virtually invulnerable in terms of strength.
But it’s very expensive!
"Hmm... In terms of efficiency, my voltage armor technology is not as good as Slares' armor. After all, it is just a newly developed technology."
Xie Yuan immediately regained his self-effacing expression and admitted his technical shortcomings: "In fact, we have also purchased the authorization for this project from your military industry group - but with our limited budget, it can only cover the center part of the ship. Part of the bridge is arranged, and the rest can only be covered with voltage armor."
"Well... it's a pity." Vasseur looked a little regretful, but quickly regained his interest, "I hope this cruise will allow me to see the effects of new technologies."
"I have the liberty to ask, Captain." Parks also became interested, "I heard that the hull of the Restoration this time was made of a synthetic metal called adamantine, right?
What about the hull armor? Also a full set of fine gold? "
"That's a good question, Parks." Xie Yuan turned to look at the Salarian with admiration, "Adamantium is a newly discovered synthetic solid metal that can effectively resist kinetic and directed energy weapons, but it also Costly.
Therefore, our hull uses another type of composite armor - composite armor composed of adamantine, ceramic steel and ship-grade titanium alloy. "
"Adamantine...ceramic..." Parks pondered for a while and then asked, "Can we place an order with Pan Asia to obtain these two new materials for research?"
"Well... I don't object to this, Parks, but these details are best discussed between the scientific research group and the scientific research group - I think win-win cooperation is what everyone wants to see."
"I will tell the Salarian Institute this." Parks nodded with satisfaction.
"Captain Yuan, I also have an interesting question - is the main gun of our new ship an enlarged version of the Senix magnetic-hybrid gun?" Nilus was the last to speak.
"Yes, I have also purchased authorization for this type of design from the Turian Military Industrial Group." Xie Yuan made no secret.
"But I found that the six gun groups on the ship are all triple-mounted series. I don't understand. Is this to increase the rate of fire by firing in turns?"
Nilus, who also seemed to be proficient in firepower, raised his doubts.
So Xie Yuan glanced at the Director-General and saw an encouraging look in his eyes, so he did not conceal Pan Asia’s box bottom design over the years: “What you see is Pan Asia’s improvements in electromagnetic guns in recent years. A breakthrough design, this is a method that can utilize 60% of the waste heat rate.”
"What?!" All the officers with experience of serving on ships were shocked.
Whether it is an electromagnetic gun, a Senix magnetic-hybrid artillery, or all high-power kinetic energy artillery, there is a drawback that cannot be effectively solved.
After firing a cannon, a huge amount of waste heat will be generated, which needs to be absorbed by the refrigerant and quickly discharged before the next round can be fired.
This results in high-power artillery basically having to control four to six rounds per minute, that is, one round every ten to fifteen seconds - the theoretical one round every five seconds is based on being able to eliminate waste heat 100% effectively. It can be done... but in combat conditions, artillery will accumulate a large amount of waste heat, and spacecraft engines can also accumulate a large amount of waste heat, and the cooling system is often easily overloaded - if it is fired at the theoretical rate of fire, it will easily lead to Everyone on the ship was roasted alive.
But now Xie Yuan tells everyone that waste heat can be reused? !
How did you do it?
