Chapter 330 Technology Upgrade
When the ‘Polarized Light’ returned to the Peony Star where the Atlas Group headquarters is located, nearly two months had passed.
The main reason is that Amber, under the guidance of Saleh, also went to another 'Forerunner Ruins' - think tank numbered 172.
In this think tank, Amber obtained three basic technologies in one go.
One is the basic data storage and processing technology of the Jerram people. Although this technology cannot allow small data storage devices to store more things, it can allow large electronic devices that are common in current human society. The performance is greatly improved.
According to Saleh, if she is allowed to participate in experiments and try to combine this technology with current human electronic equipment, it should be able to improve performance by at least 1320%.
"So how did you come up with a number like '1320%' that has zeros and integers?"
"Mental arithmetic."
Salih smiled gracefully. , possesses a kind of convincing power - by the way, in the past two months, Isabel and this Jerram man from two million years ago have become good friends.
Although Saleh did not understand the current human language before, after establishing a spiritual channel with Amber, Saleh showed a terrifying language learning ability. After only two days, he was able to communicate with Amber. Isabel chatted happily
And if this first technology can really, as Saleh said, drastically improve the performance of all large electronic devices currently in use by humans, many things will change.
The most obvious one is the server array in the 'A Bawa Ku' asteroid base. Amber no longer dares to think that after the performance of this server array is increased by 1320%, Lilith's computing power will change. How strong it must be.
According to Lilith's own speculation, it is even possible to conduct some very large virtual experiments and achieve a complete simulation of the real world in the virtual space.
If it comes true, then Atlas's technological research and development capabilities will make a qualitative leap. Many dangerous experiments that need to be carried out under extreme conditions can be run several times in the virtual space first, and then Really again.
In addition to this 'basic data storage and processing technology', the other two technologies are the smelting technology of a new alloy and the basic data of the 'field suit' that Saleh wore before.
The former may directly replace the existing armor plate technology, while the latter will allow workers operating in space to obtain more flexible but safer "universal clothing inside and outside the cabin."
When Amber returned to the Tower of Babel with the five technologies harvested this time and presented them in front of the entire R&D team and the battleship design team who were communicating through remote meetings, everyone was dumbfounded. .
Because every technology here is a big 'explosion point' if taken alone, but Amber brought back five of them at once, and they all have complete technical information and blueprints. That kind of thing, as long as the front-end technology is satisfactory, you can basically start application experiments
"Boss, did you go there to purchase goods? If there is such a good thing next time, please bring us with you. "Oens muttered as he looked at the documents projected in front of him.
“If I take you with me, I almost won’t be able to come back.”
Amber waved her hand, interrupting the other party's fantasy.
"Anyway, the gains from this trip are all here. It's up to you how to carry out application research and development~" Amber said while looking at the battleship research and development team. "Project 12 - Super Heavy Battleship. In addition to the main gun, this thing should now have all the technologies required for other key subsystems, right?"
"Yes, Boss!" Seeing Amber asking them, the leader of the battleship design team immediately replied:
"In fact, we have been optimizing the overall design during this period, except for the 'space and earth delivery channel' you need. 'Except for the battleship's main gun, in fact, other subsystems have very mature technologies, so it is not troublesome to conquer, because the main feature of Project 12 is 'big'. As long as you are willing to invest the cost, you can definitely build the entire framework. .”
After being provoked by Amber, the design team leader of Project 12 was taken out in a 'furious rage'. After organizing the words in his mind, he continued:
"Since now' long-distance pointing If the magnetic field control technology is also available, the next step is to conduct experiments on this technology to ensure that we can fully master it, and then find ways to integrate it into the overall design of the ship."
The leader of the design team will soon The current progress of Project 12 is described. Except for the main gun that has not yet been obtained, in fact, all other technologies required for this super-heavy battleship are already in place.
If Amber agrees to retain the main gun first If there is no installation space and the construction of the first experimental ship is started directly, as long as there are no major problems with the research and development progress of the 'long-distance pointing magnetic field control technology', then the experimental ship can be completed in less than half a year.
Yes, the ship building speed is relatively fast these days.
Different from traditional ships sailing in the Hebo Ocean, the construction process of space ships is a completely different system.
The various types of shipyards deployed in outer space are not so much 'shipyards' as some kind of large-scale 'printing devices'.
Based on the current mainstream shipbuilding of the Federation and the Star Dragon Empire For example, for enterprises, the construction cycle of destroyers, frigates and small civilian ships only takes more than a month from the start of construction to 'launching'.
Light cruisers and medium-sized civilian ships only last two or three months.
Although capital ships and super-large cargo ships are large in size and have more complex systems, the shipyards used to manufacture them are also upgraded large or even giant shipyards, so they can generally be completed within four months. Complete construction.
This is also the reason why since the beginning of the war between the Federation and the Empire, there has not been a large number of fleet shortages due to too many damaged ships.
As long as both parties are willing to invest funds, major shipbuilding companies will start work 24 hours a day to build ships as quickly as possible. After the general mobilization, the construction speed will even continue to shorten
In addition to Project 12, the Project 08 battleship, which was specially prepared for the Lubion system government and is also the main product of Atlas Shipbuilding Industry, has also completed the final design.
Although there is no big highlight in the design of this battleship, the design parameters are only on par with the current main battleships of the Federation and the Empire.
So the sales department of ‘Arsen Heavy Industries’ has been racking their brains recently to think about the ‘selling points’ of this warship so that they can deceive other sellers in the future.
However, after Amber came back with new alloy smelting technology and data storage and processing technology, this problem was immediately solved.
“The performance of the ship’s central processing unit is improved by 1320%!”
Look, isn’t the ‘selling point’ here?
