Chapter 364
After finishing the business, an elder immediately proposed to see the mechanical corps built by Kang Chi with his own eyes.
This proposal simply expressed everyone’s thoughts and naturally received unanimous support.
So Dumont immediately returned to the command room and asked the soldiers of the Storm Battalion to drive the robot corps over and gather in the open space near the general command room.
When the group walked to the open space, the Storm Battalion also arrived.
No matter what it is, the feeling of seeing it on the screen is far less intuitive and shocking than seeing it with your own eyes.
After seeing teams of robots coming to him and forming a square formation, the old man couldn’t help but sigh: “To be honest, I still feel like I’m dreaming. It’s unreal.”
Another old man nodded immediately and said: “Even if I see it with my own eyes now, I guess I will still feel like I’m dreaming after I go back. If I don’t see it with my own eyes a few times a day, it will always feel a little unreal…”
”That’s easy.” Kang Chi immediately said with a smile, “Just transport a few back to serve as guards.”
”That’s not necessary. Let’s keep them for more training for the soldiers and wait until the production volume increases in the future.”
Kang Chi nodded, and then introduced the performance and characteristics of each model of robot on the spot.
“…The blasting bug can carry up to 100 kilograms of explosives to blast the enemy’s underground defense buildings. In terms of specific parameters, its excavation speed is 1-3 kilometers per hour and the excavation distance is 6-18 kilometers. Both efficiency and noise depend mainly on the geological structure.”
”In areas with loose soil, its efficiency and concealment are very strong. Unless in special circumstances, I do not recommend using it in places with particularly hard geological structures. One is that the efficiency is slow, and the other is that the noise is relatively loud and it is easy to be discovered…”
”But even if it is discovered, it is actually not a big problem. I guess the enemy can’t do anything about it.”
”This is the E1 supply model of the dreadnought. It can carry a two-ton ammunition depot at most and use a mechanical arm to automatically supply ammunition to various equipment. Some non- Precise emergency repairs are also possible. ”
”This is a humanoid robot – the Reaper. It is a general-purpose robot. It may not have obvious specialties on the battlefield, but it also has no particularly big shortcomings. Basically, it can do everything that humans can do. ”
”Its ability mainly depends on the person who controls it, so its functions are relatively flexible and changeable. ”
”At the same time, its manufacturing cost is also the highest. The manufacturing of the prototype alone cost 100 million yuan, mainly because its internal parts structure is the most complex, and most of them have to be customized and polished by hand. If it can be mass-produced in the future, the cost should be controlled within 5 million. ”
”…”
During the explanation, Kang Chi was able to directly demonstrate the functions on the spot, and he also asked the soldiers of the Storm Camp to perform on the spot.
Originally, he just suggested to visit it in person, but the shock brought to them by this link was hundreds of times more intense than the exercise! The exercise just now was not a warm-up…
It was just blowing, right? “Ahem… Um, Dr. Kang, I suddenly have a question.”
”You tell me.”
”Since these equipments are so powerful, do we really need to mass produce so many? Is it possible… to make a few thousand or tens of thousands will be enough?”
The old man’s question immediately made the military leaders afraid of insufficient firepower.
What a joke, Such good equipment, only tens of thousands? Or even a few thousand?
Who can use it? The military leaders immediately focused their attention on Kang Chi’s face.
Even Chief Shen winked at him…
”It’s not impossible… but the cost-effectiveness is too low.” Kang Chi just told the truth, “If you can get higher production capacity and build more robots with the same money, why not do it?”
”Take the Reaper robot as an example. The cost of the prototype alone is 100 million, and this is when my laboratory equipment is very complete and advanced.”
”If it is changed to other laboratories, I dare say it will cost at least 500 million, and it may not even be built.”
”Assuming that the Reaper is only manufactured in small batches of 5,000, although it can indeed reduce the investment in the production line, the cost of a single Reaper is definitely more than 50 million, and the efficiency is still very low.”
”In this case, why don’t we use this cost to buildA mass production line, this production line will be built sooner or later anyway, even the current annual output of 300,000, I think it will definitely not be enough in the future… But considering that the investment is really too large, we can only appropriately reduce the cost performance first, and consider expanding production when there is a more urgent need in the future. ”
”…”
Good guy, Does it think that 10 trillion is just barely enough, and will it expand production in the future?
Is it going to fight aliens?
The military leaders were relieved and silently gave Kang Chi a thumbs up for his answer.
After listening, the old man just nodded and did not mention this topic again.
He also knew that tightening the belt now is to create a better future.
But facing such a spendthrift, the pressure is still quite great…
After reviewing the Storm Camp, Shi It was just noon.
Thanks to the extraordinary performance of the Storm Camp, everyone can have an early holiday this time…
However, the leaders who came to visit the exercise were all busy people. Even if this matter was over in advance, there were still more things waiting for them to deal with. Therefore, after lunch, the leaders left one after another by various means of transportation.
However, before leaving, the old man called Kang Chi over alone and took a walk together in this open field.
”It seems that you haven’t given a formal name for the drone carrier plan yet?”
”Well, the naming of the aircraft carrier must be voted by the people and then referred to the General Staff Office, right?”
”You can give it a code name first, such as 004, 005, etc.”
”I don’t know how many 000s it has been built now…”
The old man smiled slightly: “Then let’s go with 006. ”
006?
Does that mean 005 is already under construction?
Is the speed of production so fast? “Originally, 006 was already in the plan, but with your drone carrier, there is no need to build the original 006… Now you have one of the three major plans in your entire plan. What do you plan to do first with the remaining aircraft carrier hull and carrier-based aircraft?”
“It should be an aircraft carrier. The construction cycle of an aircraft carrier is relatively long. Some modules that have been determined can be started first. The remaining modules will be built one by one, and the carrier-based aircraft will also be carried out simultaneously. In addition, there is something I just want to discuss with you.”
“Well, what is it?”
“Controlled nuclear fusion!”
The old man stopped immediately and turned to look at Kang Chi seriously.
“Are you planning to… put a fusion reactor on 006?”
“Yes!”
