Most of the people in the conference room still agree with Xiong Antai's statement, but there are still many people who are not very receptive to this idea.
"I don't know much about the role of guided missiles in space. In my impression, most of the power of missiles is caused by shock waves?
But in space, there is no air to spread, the lethality of the missile seems to be very small? Just to be a launch vehicle, I don't think it's worthwhile to invest a lot of money in research? " Tian Mingli asked his question.
This is also the question of most people in the conference room. After all, we all have such a cognition. We can't see how much the slow weapon like missiles can play in space. Therefore, we all looked curiously at Xiong Antai to see how he explained it.
If the explanation is not good, everyone should suspect that this guy is trying to find an excuse to pull research funds for his rocket laboratory. Although the company has always fully supported the investment in R & D funds at the request of Lei Tiantang, the approval of funds also needs a legitimate reason or R & D direction, and most people in the conference room are doubted It's all in it.
Seeing that everyone, including the boss, had such questions, Xiong Antai was not surprised at all. He said with a confident smile: "I know your questions. Maybe in your understanding, a weapon like a missile can only have good lethality on earth, but in space, its lethality is not good!
This is mainly because we think that the most important shock wave of missile killing is not available in space, but this is only a limited view. On the one hand, the lethality of modern missiles is accomplished by shock waves, but there are also damage modes such as skin damage and thermal radiation damage.
Take the nuclear bomb as an example. Its power mainly comes from the blast wave when it explodes, but its radiation lethality is not small. Of course, the radiation in the cosmic environment is very strong, so the radiation protection effect of space warships can be guaranteed, which leads to the effect of radiation killing in the sky is not very big.
But let's not forget that the nuclear bomb also has one of the most lethal properties, that is, the temperature generated immediately when it explodes is as high as 100 million degrees, and the temperature of hydrogen bomb and three-phase bomb explosion is even higher!
So even if their biggest shock wave lethality in space is gone, as long as their high-temperature lethality is still there, they will not be eliminated, because as long as the nuclear bomb carried by the guided missile hits, it is basically finished. Because no warship's protective layer can survive such high temperature, it is incorrect to say that guided missile has no power.
Even if the missile is guided by a nuclear bomb, it can not be guided by the warhead. Even if it is guided by the missile, it can not be guided by us!
It can also carry electromagnetic bombs, corrosion bombs and other warheads, flexibility is its most important feature!
In the space age, the general weapon launch will be limited by the detection range, and if the target is not accurate, it can not be hit. However, the guided missile is different. You only need to input a general target and then launch the missile. It will use its own detection device to automatically aim and attack when it reaches the target!
Moreover, weapons such as electromagnetic railguns can only carry out linear attack, which is much less flexible. Moreover, it is difficult to attack the important parts of the space warship of the other side. For places like engines, intelligent guided missiles can only be used to turn and attack.
In particular, the concealment of the guided missile is also very important. It can be launched cold and use inertia to fly away from the spacecraft for a certain distance and then ignite. In this way, we will not easily expose the position of our own spaceship.
It can also camouflage as space junk and make a sudden approach attack when the other warship approaches. This advantage is not available to other weapons.
Of course, the reaction speed of guided missiles is also an advantage. We should know that no matter what kind of energy weapons they are, they need impulse energy before launching, which will lead to the reaction speed of energy weapons will be very slow in case of attack during space operations.
The advantages of guided missiles that can be launched immediately in the face of an attack are reflected in this time. They can become the vanguard of warships' rapid defense and counterattack, so that energy weapons will not be destroyed before delivery.
There are some other advantages that I will not explain one by one. As far as I say these advantages can prove that the guided missile is an indispensable weapon in the future space, so it is very necessary to develop it!
The above are my views, which I think in my daily work. I paid attention when we initially discussed what weapons should be installed on the spaceship. I hope my view can be approved by all of you! "
"Good! Director Xiong's idea is really eye-catching! " Lei Tiantang said happily while clapping.
There were also warm applause in the conference room. After listening to Xiong Antai's explanation, everyone now expressed their support for him to list the guided missile as one of the weapons on the company's future spaceships.
"In this way, the research and development of missiles will be left to your rocket laboratory! Your laboratory has set up an independent missile research and development laboratory to carry out research and development of various missiles. Anyway, this is what you are good at!It's professional to turn the head of rockets and engage in missiles. Just a few years ago, those countries and media who were displeased with our company were also saying that we were going to do ballistic missile research and that we were a threat. Now we are really threatening to show them! " Lei Tian Tang said with a smile.
Everyone laughed when they heard the boss say so. They were also very unhappy about this matter for some time. Now turn those people's worries into reality and see how you can do!
"Boss, since director Xiong said that our space weapons can't walk on one leg and guided missiles have been added, I also propose to add laser weapons!
I think we all know the power of laser weapons. Its firing speed is very important for future space operations. We should know that whether it is electromagnetic railguns or guided missiles, their speed will not be able to make a great breakthrough for a long time.
However, once the laser weapon is launched, the speed of light is not comparable to the two weapons, so it should also be one of the main weapons on our company's spaceship in the future! " Zhang hanxiu, director of the deep space laboratory, also said his own ideas at this time.
