Monster Factory - 1300

Since Ye Qing felt that this repeated torpedo was a bit like a small magic metal ball floating around the Magneto King.

Then why not make it more technologically magical?

Completely use amorphous metal to make an amorphous torpedo.

Perhaps it is not appropriate to describe it as a torpedo, and the amorphous metal can change its shape arbitrarily.

In addition, torpedoes that rely on chemical reaction energy to kill ships are all one-time combat weapons. After a loud noise, it will be broken into pieces.

Ye Qing hopes to have a high-tech weapon that can be used for repeated operations, and to keep it as quiet as possible during the killing process.

Unshaped metal is naturally the best choice, and the name can be changed when the final shape is finalized.

You can also turn its shape into a fish, use the fins to swing, or swing like a squid to act as a driving force, so that it can be completely silent.

The swimming speed of sailfish in the ocean can reach nearly sixty knots, and the front end of its mouth is a slender bone-like sharp thorn.

It can easily pierce the hull of a wooden fishing boat when it swims quickly in the sea.

Using amorphous metal, it will only go faster.

“Then…what’s its weapon system?” Dianjing covered his eyes, “Boss, you really don’t intend to turn the amorphous metal into a blade and cut the hull repeatedly.”

“Although amorphous metal can turn the blade into a nanometer thickness, the thickness of the armor of a warship’s hull is between 20 and 30 millimeters, and the key parts are protected by composite armor. If you use amorphous metal to cut, I’m afraid it will have to be cut. Hours.”

“Even if there is a group of blind people living in the warship, they can follow the sound.”

“Of course I know this.” Ye Qing rubbed his forehead. Unshaped metal is magical, but it is definitely unrealistic to expect dozens of kilograms of it to sink a warship of thousands of tons.

So it is necessary to install a weapon for the unshaped torpedo.

This kind of weapon should be quiet, and it can cause huge damage to warships.

The electromagnetic generator was the first to be abandoned, it belongs to the soft kill range.

“Excluding the chemical explosion, then the energy weapon is left.” Ye Qing clapped his hands, and encouraged Dianjing and the masters: “We brainstormed to design a subversive weapon for the indeterminate torpedo.”

The exquisite master said without hesitation: “It doesn’t take much time to think about it. I have seen the destroyer that we dragged back. Its shell is made of high-strength non-magnetic steel.”

“Theoretically, this kind of steel can be cut quickly using plasma cutting technology that is common in industrial processing.”

“The biggest problem is still the energy.”

The principle of plasma cutting technology is not complicated. It uses current to generate high-temperature plasma arcs. These high-temperature arcs up to several thousand degrees can quickly melt various alloy metals in the work area. As early as when Ye Qing started his business, he used this technology to cut a high-strength explosion-proof door for a club.

So in theory, even the simplest plasma technology can cut the shell of a warship.

However, energy is conserved, and an amorphous torpedo with a volume of only tens of kilograms, even if it carries an energy module that has not yet been developed, it is impossible to sink a warship of even a thousand-ton class.

Because the sinking of the ship proceeds slowly, the crew can detect the moment the ship enters the water and quickly take remedial measures.

“Let me first calculate the energy required to cut one square meter of high-strength non-magnetic steel with plasma cutting technology.” Dianjing took out the holographic glasses belt and used the formula calculation program inside to calculate what.

After a few minutes, Dianjing led the calculation results to the electronic screen.

The high-strength non-magnetic steel shell of the frigate is 30 mm thick. If the ultra-high frequency plasma technology with an output power of 9600W is used to cut a one-square-meter gap, it would theoretically consume 0.5 kWh of electricity.

According to the energy storage density of the energy module, an energy module with a weight of 300 grams is needed for the energy consumption of one cut.

The amorphous torpedo is assumed to carry a ten kilogram energy module as the power source. After removing the necessary energy consumption to maintain the deformation of the amorphous metal, it is only enough for the UHF plasma cutter to cut a piece of armor of tens of square meters from the shell of the warship.

“It seems to work, but it doesn’t seem to work.”

This energy consumption situation did not make Ye Qing unacceptable. “Theoretically, the amorphous torpedo only cuts a small piece of armor and lets yourself go in to destroy the important facilities inside the warship, such as the ammunition depot or the fuel depot. Chances can be successful.”

“But what I want is an innovative energy weapon.”

“To get a plasma cutter, we have to have a mini reactor.”

Dianjing rolled his eyes, “Boss, we are not Stark Industries, we can’t build a small Ark reactor.”

“We have to face reality. Giant Animal Industry is currently able to manufacture batteries with the highest energy storage density, and only energy modules are available.”

“No~ the energy module hasn’t been built yet.”

Ark reactor…

If there is the kind of Ark reactor in the movie, all the difficulties will be solved. Not to mention the plasma cutting knife, even any high-energy laser, vibration knife can be made for it.

Don’t think about the technology of the Ark reactor. This thing violates the principle of conservation of energy.

The most realistic technology is to boil water and to miniaturize nuclear reactors.

The technology of miniaturized reactors, the giant beast industry, is at the forefront of the world. In theory, the reactor can be reduced to the size of a truck.

But it is still too big. When it is built and placed on a torpedo, the entire torpedo weighs at least a few hundred tons.

Without nuclear reactors, there would be insufficient energy to supply weapon systems…

reactor……

Ye Qing carefully considered the various possibilities of miniaturization of nuclear reactors.

After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Qing certainly didn’t come up with a result.

But the principle of nuclear reactors suddenly inspired Ye Qing.

“Dianjing, the UHF plasma cutter in the energy consumption formula you just mentioned, how much can the arc working temperature reach?”

Dianjing didn’t understand why Ye Qing asked this, but it immediately replied, “The arc temperature is 8000 degrees. Of course, this temperature only exists inside the arc.”

Ye Qing continued to ask, “What is the core temperature limit of the Humpback Whale?”

“Extreme temperature?”

Dian Jingxin said that the boss of this thing should be clear, “Boss, if you are referring to the removal of the cooling water in the primary circuit, let the core of the reactor heat up freely without cooling measures. Then the temperature of the reactor core will gradually It has risen to the limit of more than three thousand five hundred degrees.”

“In fact, when the core rises to three thousand degrees, the zirconium alloy fuel rods we use to seal nuclear fuel will be slowly melted by the high temperature, and then we completely lose control of the core.”

“Boss, you humans have performed the example of out of control of the core many times. I don’t need to explain how to explode.”

Ye Qing laughed, and smiled very proudly, making Dianjing a little frightened.

“Dianjing, you are right, we can’t build an Ark reactor.”

“But we can use the idea of fuel rods to create a new weapon.”

Dianjing blinked, “What…what weapon?”

“Uh…it can be called a nuclear fission knife.”

“Or it can be called a fission knife.”
