Chapter 925 Air Defense Plan

7days ago Xuanhuan Novels 9
In fact, the key issues Roland talked about before were air defense forces.

As a person who has witnessed modern warfare, the importance of air superiority is almost engraved in his mind like a creed. Due to the breadth and depth of the sky, the party with the advantage can choose to launch an attack from any direction and at any time.

Before the radar appears, such an attack is unpredictable.

If you do not have reliable air defense capabilities, it is a dream to build a shelling position under the devil's nose.

Now he was sure that when Luo Jia fled back to Wudong City, the devil had approached the Western border more than once.

Otherwise, they would not be able to determine that this is a city dominated by ordinary people and try to reuse the threat from the first battle of divine will.

But neither the outposts on the Desperate Mountains nor the Divine Punishment Witch who went out of the defense line for early warning and reconnaissance, they had never noticed it at all. If Sylvi had not taken over the alert work, I am afraid that this round of attack would not have reacted until the enemy appeared outside the city wall.

This has fully proved that under the existing technical conditions, the vast sky will be the biggest loophole in the Winter City defense line.

After all, for this era, the Air Force is really an unimaginable concept.

After knowing that the devil has a flying terror beast, Roland has been considering air defense. Unfortunately, no one could have expected that the devil would appear so early that none of the planned despair lines, telephone networks, and new weapons research and development were truly completed.

He was not surprised that the First Army failed to achieve results. As a transition weapon, the revolver rifle was used to supplement the killing blind spots of artillery fire and machine guns, and was quite useful when cleaning the battlefield. However, its shortcomings are increasingly prominent. The limited chamber pressure has led to its low accuracy and short range. If it is not equipped with a special loader, the five-round bullet nest makes the firepower delivered within a unit time very limited, which is not conducive to scattered combat.

In addition, the air shooting has lost its usual stable fulcrum and cannot be adjusted by judging the bounce point error, so its hit rate can be imagined.

It is not impossible to improve this situation in a short period of time. The easiest way is to make modifications to the above points.

It is already planned to gradually eliminate the revolver rifle and replace it with a brand new bolt-action rifle. Previously, some parts still needed Anna to process them, so only a small-scale precision shooter team was equipped.

However, as the new generation of machine tools is put into use, workers are gradually familiar with new manufacturing methods, and processing and assembly can be achieved without relying on witches.

Once the yield rate is guaranteed, it will not be a problem to increase this part of the production capacity.

However, it is a bit difficult to rely on a few rifles to defend against air. Compared with the rotor, although the accuracy and range of the former will increase, the rate of fire will decrease.

In addition, tracer bullets with complex structures are unbearable for bullet production lines that are already running at full capacity. Even if technical research is now started, when the stable mass production can be produced, the evil moon may have passed.

Therefore, the bolt-action rifle can only be used as an auxiliary, and the First Army also needs a targeted air defense weapon.

Roland guessed that the advanced fire control route was basically out of the blue, and the barrage coverage became his only choice.

The easiest way to achieve results is to convert the Mark One heavy machine gun into an anti-aircraft machine gun. This is also a common practice in history. There is no need to add any burden to production and logistics. Just design a set of high-level dual-purpose brackets and sights to obtain a certain low-altitude defense capability.

When he designed the Mark Type 1, he did not use a water-cooled casing, but a lightweight air-cooled barrel, which was also considered for subsequent transformations.

The heavy machine gun has a high firing rate, long range, high power, and does not significantly fall within a short distance. It is enough to deal with the madman with limited throwing distance. If the devil had two Mark One machine guns that could shoot in the air when attacking the city wall, the result might be completely different.

After the meeting was announced, Roland did not return to the office immediately, but went to the Academic Academy first.

Located at the southern end of the castle area, this emerging courtyard echoes the chemistry laboratory next door, and most of the members are members of the astrological association.

However, under the halo of the sage learning, many urban residents who have completed primary education courses have recently chosen to enter the arithmetic academy, and even the recruits are 100% or 20% more than those who join the Alchemy Association.

Roland speculated that this was probably because of frequent explosions in laboratories.

Bachelor of Difference Star greeted him in the hall.

After the ceremony, the chief astrologer excitedly expressed the profoundness and beauty of mathematics.

Your Majesty, please forgive my rudeness. The book "Analysis Geometry" you gave me before is simply a work of gods!I never thought that one day the world would be so clear. It has nothing to do with the brightness of the eyes, but a person's way of thinking.Even if I grow old so much that my eyes are dizzy and I can no longer look up at the stars, the world will still be clear.For example, your curly hair now is pure numbers and symbols in my eyes, as well as your robes and boots...

Seeing that the other party couldn't stop for a moment, Roland had to interrupt him. Have you mastered all the contents in the book?

I dare not say certain, but most of them should be fine. The diffuse stars restrained their emotions. In the past six months, except for the calculation tasks you assigned, everyone has been busy with a huge task, which is to re-record all the stars observed in the past in the form of equations.For this reason, we have established the starry sky coordinates and determined that the world-destroying star is what you call the red moon, without any signs of moving.

Roland had paid attention to the Red Moon before, after all, its arrival symbolized the beginning of the battle of divine will. However, now the devil has appeared, and it is meaningless to pay attention to this countdown star.

I have a new calculation task that you need to do, and the faster the better. He went straight to the topic, but this time it was not only pure arithmetic, but also cooperated with the First Army to solve practical problems.

Are you referring to writing a cannon firing watch like you did last time?

More complicated, Roland shook his head, you have to make an instrument that can predict the target movement with the assistance of the craftsmen.It is controlled by two equations that influence each other, one describing the displacement in the horizontal direction and the other describing the displacement in the vertical direction.I have a rough design idea here, but you need to determine the specific parameters after actual testing.

This is a simple anti-fire sight prototype. By assembling the target's heading, distance and other parameters, it can give the gun body the required high angle and advance angle, thereby spreading bullet rain on the enemy's flight path to complete the blocking of the air.

It does not require any electronic equipment, the structure is fully mechanical and manual operation, the only thing it needs is a calculated meter and the most basic algebraic geometry knowledge.
