Chapter 420

After readjusting his status, Chen Xin stopped worrying about genetic modification and instead focused on several important things at hand.

However, most of the projects need to wait for the completion of the construction of the scientific research base before they can start. The only thing that can be done is the research on military weapons.

The R & D of Titan and large vehicles is limited by the site. Chen Xin didn't do it right away. Instead, he planned to wait until the scientific research base was built and the conditions were ready to carry out the R & D work. Now he just planned to use the time before the scientific research base was built to make a few exoskeletons and power armor supporting weapons.

If it's just exoskeletons, it's OK to use ordinary weapons. Although the power brought by exoskeletons is not very strong, it can at least make soldiers use heavier guns and weapons with stronger recoil force to play a more powerful firepower in the battlefield.

The power armor is different. Apart from other things, the trigger of ordinary guns is designed according to the thickness of ordinary people's fingers. You can wear tactical gloves or something, but if you wear heavy anti freezing gloves, your fingers are almost as thick as carrots. I'm afraid your fingers can't fit into the trigger ring.

Therefore, weapons equipped with power armor should at least be enlarged in the size of the trigger.

What's more, soldiers equipped with power armor are much stronger both in strength and load.

In this case, using ordinary guns, they can even hold an automatic rifle in one hand and shoot continuously without holding and pressing the gun. So naturally, they can be equipped with heavy weapons such as 12.7mm Gatling machine gun, which can only be used with vehicles.

However, the 12.7mm caliber is still too powerful. Apart from the main battle tank, ordinary vehicles, even armored vehicles, can hardly withstand the 12.7mm caliber armor piercing incendiary bombs.

Chen Xin remembers that when the weapons research department of Yanguo designed the 12.7mm Gatling machine gun, it tested it with a car, and the car was directly shot through, not to mention the whole car.

Therefore, it is inevitable to design a kind of gun with moderate power, which is more suitable for soldiers equipped with power armor to be used as ordinary weapons.

After all, you can't always carry a heavy machine gun that can tear ordinary people into two sections to perform tasks, can you? That's too much firepower.

"If you want to design a weapon for power armor, what do you think it should look like, Lieutenant Deng?" Chen Xin is holding a record board to ask second lieutenant Deng. At this time, Second Lieutenant Deng is testing the power armor made by Chen Xinxin.

This set of power armor is made by Chen Xinxin, using the prototype design that Chen Xin had completed when he made his and Qin Lan's power armor.

And Chen Xin improved its power system, using the same small isotope thermoelectric battery as the exoskeleton power supply, but the output power was amplified a little, and some adjustments were made in flexibility.

The whole power armor looks a bit like medieval knight plate armor, which is rather round due to the lack of edges and corners.

In terms of design structure, this set of power armor is actually the design of exoskeleton packaging deck. On the whole, a set of exoskeleton is designed first, and then armor plates are installed on the exoskeleton skeleton.

Unlike the two sets of Chen Xin and Qin LAN, the internal structure of the two sets is more complex power armor skeleton, not just exoskeleton armor.

The reason for Chen Xin's design is not that he is reluctant to give good things to the military, but that he needs to consider the manufacturing cost and whether the manufacturing process can support the complex design structure.

People who know about World War II all know that Hans military industry is famous for its precise design and high quality, especially for tanks. Tiger, leopard and tiger king tanks are invincible in the battlefield. However, corresponding to them are complex structures and a large number of parts, which are not only troublesome to repair, but also time-consuming to build.

Correspondingly, suvia's T34 tank is simple in structure and hard to build. If it is damaged, it will be easier to repair. Even with maozi's extensive maintenance style, it can stand up to setbacks, and it will be easier to manufacture. Even during the battle of Stalingrad, there was a story about the T34 made by a tractor factory going to the battlefield without painting.

By comparison, we can see that it is very important for a country's logistics and armaments to be simple, reliable and easy to maintain.

Of course, Chen Xin can make power armor with advanced technology, comprehensive functions and powerful force, but that kind of thing is closer to the rich toys such as Iron Man Battle clothes, rather than a military equipment that can be used to train troops on a large scale.

In addition, the country is now in mass production of exoskeleton, using the production line, using a large number of parts with the same specifications, can also reduce the investment in manufacturing, convenient and faster production.

Lieutenant Deng didn't feel much about this. He was quite satisfied with his power armor.

Although it's motion feedback power armor, he doesn't feel any slow response. Basically, when his body moves, the power armor has already responded, and the efficiency is very good.

As for Chen Xinwen's question about weapons, Second Lieutenant Deng thought about it and said, "I think it's necessary to have a stable and reliable automatic rifle. Although many weapons in games or science fiction works are tall, such as electromagnetism, Gauss and laser, they are simple and reliable, and can output fire continuously and stably."Chen Xin nodded. It's no surprise that a good gun will not end with high precision and fast firing speed. What's more important is its reliability and stability. Otherwise, the AK47 will not be the world's highest production gun, even since World War II.

"I see. I'll pay attention to that." Chen Xin recorded Deng's opinions and then asked him, "do you think there is any improvement in this set of power armor?"

"Every aspect is very good, but our special forces will bring a lot of things when they are on duty. How can we load this set of power armor? Is it a plug-in carrying device? " Lieutenant Deng asked a key question.

In all kinds of film and television works and video games, we usually don't think about how the characters carry materials. The former is for aesthetic and visual effects, while the latter has omnipotent backpack space, and even doesn't need to dig things.

But it can't be done in reality. Even Chen Xin himself has built a silo behind his power armor. This kind of power armor for the military must have a place for loading things, otherwise there is no place for ammunition and other things.
