"Set the attack coordinates, 38.2512 north latitude, 122.5821 east longitude, lock on to the target immediately!”
Li Qiu ordered the people in the self-propelled electromagnetic cannon armored vehicle.
"Roger!"
In the armored vehicle equipped with the electromagnetic railgun weapon system, the tester immediately entered the strike coordinates on the console.
"How many people do we need to operate this electromagnetic railgun weapon system?”
Lieutenant General Liu Zhenguo stood beside Li Qiu and asked.
Traditional self-propelled artillery required at least a driver, a captain, a gunner, and a loading hand. Some even had two gunner assistants. At least six people were needed to fire the shells.
For example, some heavy howitzers had a firing team of 12 people.
Although the electromagnetic railgun weapon system had not been tested yet, the core leader of the Ministry of Defense had already considered the issue of weapons and personnel.
A weapon that could fire artillery shells could actually increase its attack range to more than 1000 kilometers. It was comparable to a medium-range ballistic missile. He was very satisfied with this weapon.
"Sir, the electromagnetic railgun's trajectory is different from traditional cannons. It doesn't need to be tested every time it reaches a new area, and it doesn't need to consider the atmospheric conditions and other factors such as changing the firing table and calculations.”
"The electromagnetic railgun's fire control system only needs to know the coordinates of the firing position itself and the precise coordinates of the target point. The newly designed fire control system will automatically adjust the firing position, cannon elevation, and power output.”
"And even if it is loaded, this electromagnetic railgun weapon system also uses an automatic loading system, so there is no need to load it.”
"Therefore, even one person can control this electromagnetic pulse cannon weapon system!”
Li Qiu replied.
"Only one person is needed to control it?”
"And it's a super intelligent precision strike?”
After hearing Li Qiu's answer, Lieutenant General Liu Zhenguo was shocked beyond words.
"How is this possible?"
"The friction between the atmospheric density and the cannonball, the wind, and the gravity field of different regions are all important factors that affect the accuracy of the cannonball.”
"Traditional artillery requires so many people to help the gunner calculate the impact of these values, so as to make corresponding adjustments to the firing table to improve the accuracy of the strike. You only input the coordinates of the cannon position and the target, completely ignoring the impact of these links in the middle. How can you achieve accurate strikes?”
"We are not short of personnel. If a few more people can improve the accuracy of this electromagnetic railgun, I think it is worth it.”
A major general from the General Assembly Department said to Li Qiu earnestly.
He felt that Li Qiu's design of the Electromagnetic Railgun had already reached a shocking level. There was no need to nitpick to the point where one person could fire and use the Electromagnetic Railgun.
On the contrary, if there were a few more people to help the cannon captain with the calibrations and improve the accuracy of the shells, it would be worth it to assign 20 people to this set of electromagnetic railguns.
Li Qiu also understood what the leader of the General Assembly Department meant.
However, the theory he mentioned was only for traditional artillery. The electromagnetic railgun did not need those at all.
"Chief, it's not that I don't want to add a few more people to control the electromagnetic railgun weapon system, but there's really no need.”
"The electromagnetic railgun has a range of more than 1000 kilometers and is launched at an angle of more than 70 degrees. The trajectory of the shell is similar to that of an intercontinental missile. Most of the time, it will fly outside the Karman line. Only during the final descent, it will need to enter the lower atmosphere more than ten kilometers vertically.”
"Therefore, we only need to know the position of the cannon and the coordinates of the target. The wind and air pressure changes will have minimal interference.”
"It is precisely for this reason that the electromagnetic railguns have more regular trajectories. Their actual accuracy is far beyond that of ordinary cannonballs. They can even be compared to guided cannonballs!”
Li Qiu explained.
After Li Qiu finished speaking, all the leaders of the assembly department opened their mouths wide and looked at Li Qiu in shock.
They were all in the technical field and knew that the accuracy of the electromagnetic railgun was a big problem.
However, they never expected that the problem that Beauty Nation had been studying for decades would be solved by Li Qiu with such a genius or simple method.
It even raised the accuracy of the electromagnetic railgun to a whole new level?
"The younger generation is formidable, a genius and a great pioneering work. So this is the real electromagnetic railgun!”
"Without a genius like Li Qiuqiu, if we continue to research in the direction of Beauty Nation, I'm afraid we won't be able to solve the accuracy of the electromagnetic rail cannon.”
"Li Qiu Tongzhi, your contribution to the electromagnetic railgun can be called the father of the electromagnetic railgun in our Dragon Country!”
The general of the General Assembly Department who had just asked Li Qiu a question sighed.
Although he had said the wrong thing just now, there was no unhappiness on his face at this moment. Instead, he was highly appreciative of Li Qiu, his eyes full of love and admiration.
"Li Qiu's design has greatly reduced the pressure on us when designing armored vehicles.”
"Due to the reduction of personnel and space requirements, we can greatly improve the performance and protection of armored vehicles.”
At this moment, Liu Gong said emotionally.
When he was designing the armored vehicle, he had asked Li Qiu about the personnel configuration of the weapon system. He hoped that Li Qiu would reduce the number of personnel as much as possible to improve the performance of the vehicle.
When Li Qiu told him that the electromagnetic railgun weapon system only needed one person to operate, Liu Gong was even excited for a few days.
He had never met such a cooperative project partner in his entire military design career.
However, Li Qiu felt a little embarrassed after being praised by the chief of so many.
Li Qiu felt even more guilty when he heard Liu Gong's praise.
Because the electromagnetic railgun only needed one person to operate it, it was obviously meant to serve his alien mecha, not to facilitate Liu Gong's design of the armored vehicle.
"Report, target locked!”
Just as Li Qiu and the others were talking, the voice of the equipment tester came from the communicator.
In front of the control panel of the armored vehicle, the real-time image captured by the satellite was also synchronized with the display screen of the control panel.
The target island provided by Captain Liu Yehua had been completely locked onto by the electromagnetic railgun.
In addition, even when facing a moving target, this fire control system could calculate the movement trajectory of the locked target based on the real-time information transmitted back by the satellite, and then carry out a pre-judgment strike!
"Fire!"
Li Qiu ordered through the communicator.
Immediately after, the two rails of the electromagnetic pulse cannon on the armored vehicle and the hub in the middle immediately burst out blue lightning.
With the sizzling sound of the electric current and the increasingly bright electric light, the electromagnetic railgun was fully charged. A specially made tungsten alloy projectile was launched at an initial speed of nearly Mach 21 by electromagnetic force!
Everyone covered their ears as the bullets were fired.
"Our side has launched a precise strike at the target's coordinates. Captain Liu, please pay attention to your observations.”
After the sound barrier disappeared, Li Qiu contacted the observation ship through the communicator.
"Roger, observing!”
On the observation ship, all the observation equipment had been aimed at the target island they had chosen, ready to record all the data in real time.
Although the distance of more than 1,000 kilometers was far, with the speed of the electromagnetic railgun projectile close to Mach 20, in just two minutes, a huge sound barrier resounded in the ears of every crew member of the observation ship.
Almost at the same time, a huge amount of steam rose in front of them. The roar was accompanied by the steam that filled the sky and the clouds that crashed into the sky. Everyone's ears and eyes seemed to have lost their hearing and vision.
"
What happened?"
"What's Liu Yehua doing? Why hasn't he reported to us after three minutes?”
"According to the speed of the electromagnetic railgun's projectile at Mach 20, which is only lower than the speed of the first universe, it should hit the target in two minutes!”
"This Liu Yehua is too unreliable. I can't even contact him through the communicator!”
In a fit of anger, Lieutenant Liu Zhenguo directly threw the communicator he had snatched from Li Qiu's hands to the guard, stomping his feet anxiously!
At the same time, he looked at Lieutenant General Wang Hang, who was beside him, with disappointment.
"Old Wang, can you stop grabbing the corner of my shirt?”
"I'm also very anxious!"
"If Liu Yehua still dares to lose contact with us in another minute, I'll fire him!”
Lieutenant General Liu Zhenguo cursed.
It had been four minutes. Did the observation ship hit the target? Why did they lose contact?
Not only the two lieutenant generals, but many other military leaders were also looking at the sea in the southeast.
They had placed so much hope on the electromagnetic pulse cannon that they were extremely anxious and nervous after experiencing so many storms!
