Located in Crescent Island to the northwest of Koro.
Since the establishment of the high-tech industrial park on Anga Island, the production line of Phantom Helmets has been transferred from the nearby maritime platform to Anga Island.
Now this offshore platform has been transformed into a deep-water port to dock guardian frigates that have been transformed by the Future Human Military Industry, as well as some experimental equipment such as submarines designed by Future Human Heavy Industry.
Standing on the maritime platform outside Crescent Island, Ivan showed Jiang Chen the latest equipment of the Star Ring Marine Corps.
This is the latest design of the Future Military Industry, the "Crocodile" Type 20 amphibious assault vehicle.You can submarine ten meters underwater, quickly attack the target coastline, and cover infantry landing...
The short and compact section looks more like a tank than an armored vehicle, but the weapon layout is basically the same as that of an ordinary armored vehicle.
The circular tubular external air tanks hanging on both sides of the armor can control the submarine altitude by drainage flushing, and the tail end is equipped with a spiral propulsion device to power the amphibious attack vehicle during diving.
The armored vehicle is equipped with an electromagnetic rapid-fire gun on the top. The mass bomb accelerated to the limit can easily tear the light armor of a general infantry combat vehicle.
The automatic loading rockets suspended on both sides of the turret can fire two types of rockets, name-piercing and high-explosion.
It has both deep penetration and firepower. Whether it is street fighting or amphibious combat, this amphibious attack vehicle named after the crocodile can be easily competent.
Jiang Chen tapped it lightly and gave a two-word evaluation for this weapon tailored for the Star Ring Marine Corps.
good.
With light armored clusters such as armored vehicles and mechanized infantry as the main force, and high-level battle tanks such as Tiger Hunting II as the auxiliary, it emphasizes rapid offense and soft target killing. This is the tactical idea of the Star Ring Marine Corps.
In the future, the research and development direction of military industry in army weapons will basically be in line with this idea.
The specific manifestation is that in all R&D projects, there is almost no shadow of the main battle tank.
There is naturally a reason for this phenomenon.
Since the advent of electromagnetic cannons, the offensive and defensive asymmetry of armored units has been differentiated to the extreme.
It is no exaggeration to say that the mass bombs accelerated by the Fifty electromagnetic cannon to ten times the speed of sound can not only easily penetrate the front armor of the M1A2 main battle tank, but also run out from behind their butts.
In fact, even if there are no next-generation weapons such as electromagnetic guns, the offense and defense asymmetry of modern main battle tanks has gradually emerged.
Putting aside the black technology of Star Ring Trade, give a very simple example.
The Type 99 tank standard ammunition of the Great Heavenly Dynasty, the 125mm armor-piercing bomb, the latest media report is 1000mm (some say 1800mm, but this is too fantasy and will not be used as a reference).
Its imaginary enemy M1A2 tank has the strongest protection position, probably in front of the turret, with a horizontal anti-support capability equivalent to 850 mm homogeneous steel, and an inclination coefficient of 13.
The equivalent thickness of depleted uranium armor may be higher, but it will not exceed 1000 mm of homogeneous steel.
What is this concept?
Even if you take the thickest place to resist the beat, M1A2 may not be able to resist the next 99-style one shot.
Of course, the other way around is the same.
When you encounter it within 2000 meters, whether it is crispy or MT, it is basically taken away in one stroke.
This is also the reason why Europe has been reluctant to equip 140mm tank guns. In addition to military expenditure issues, the most fundamental reason is that there is no need.
Even when facing the front armor of the latest main battle tank, it can easily penetrate within 2,000 meters with a 120mm tank gun and a hard core armor-piercing projectile.
If you want to effectively defend against 120mm (including Russia's 125mm) tank guns, you must significantly sacrifice mobility.
However, for modern warfare with diverse anti-tank methods, losing mobility is often more deadly than losing armor.
The current development ideas of future military industry are referenced by Jiang Chen, and Jiang Chen is referring to the world history of the end of the world.
From the mid-twentieth century to the early 22nd century, main battle tanks were indeed cold-treated for quite some time.
It was not until the emergence of brain-level designs such as the Prowler and Spider Tank that the main battle tanks had their place to use.
However, by this time, the boundary between tanks and infantry fighting vehicles was actually quite blurred.
The Prowler may still find the shadow of the tank. As for the spider tank...whether that thing looks like a tank?
After walking around the sea platform twice, and returning to Crescent Island, Jiang Chen looked at Ivan and asked.
How many crocodiles do we have in total?
At present, we have only ordered twenty vehicles from Future Military Industry.Ivan replied.
How do you think that thing is used?Jiang Chen continued to ask.
Without understanding what Jiang Chen said, Ivan hesitated for a little while and finally nodded truthfully. His performance in several exercises was quite good, and he did have a great improvement in the landing combat capabilities of the Marine Corps.
Then buy it for 500.Jiang Chen smiled and said casually, "What can twenty cars do?"Still too few.
Ivan silently wrote down this sentence and prepared to ask someone to do it immediately after a while.
By the way.Jiang Chen suddenly changed his mind and looked at Ivan. How many reserves are there?
It seemed that he felt that what he said was not accurate enough, Jiang Chen added another sentence later.
You know, I mean those mercenaries.
Including the recruits in training, there are a total of 30,000!
Too few.Jiang Chen shook his head, I felt it was necessary to increase the number of 'protocol workers'.
Ivan asked with a calm expression.
Are you going to fight?
When asked this, the Russian's pupils suddenly flashed with excitement.
Since the establishment of the Ministry of Aerospace, the Star Ring Trade Aerospace Defense Force has been included in the Ministry of Aerospace system.
It includes orbital airborne troops and power armored brigade. Although the names are collectively called Star Ring Marines due to habits, they are two completely different systems from the Star Ring Navy and Marines commanded by Ivan.
It is precisely because of this that although Star Ring Trade has been using troops to the outside world, there has been no movement for Ivan and the others.
Although he also thought that war was not a good thing, he still couldn't help but feel itchy.
Whenever he heard about which orbital airborne brigade of the Star Ring Trade achieved such victory, the more he felt uncomfortable.
From this sentence from the boss, he vaguely heard a trace of unusual meaning.
Including the BOSS, who has always focused her work on space issues, suddenly visited Crescent Island and rarely inspected the military training situation. These are all very intriguing actions in themselves.
Because the last time he frequently visited the Crescent Island military base, the Battle of Mindanao that shocked the world broke out soon after.
However, Jiang Chen did not give a clear answer to Ivan's inquiry, but just smiled faintly, leaving an ambiguous answer.
Who can say that war is a good thing?
