"What else?" Lin Hai looked at Wang Hammer puzzled, "Could it be that the armed satellites of the Global Defense Force only have such a little ability?" It is not capable of attacking ground targets! ”

"The Sky Eye was originally developed as part of the global missile defense system." "And it's only a ton in weight, so it's not that big. The natural weapons module and the energy module will not be much bigger. For these reasons, the power of the laser is not much greater, and if the power is not enough, its effective killing range will not be too far, and the effective killing range of 800 kilometers is already considered very far. After all, this kind of Tianyan-type armed satellite is only a simple equipment that can be mass-produced, and its autonomy is very limited, and it even needs a ground command center to control it. ”

"By the way," Lin Hai suddenly reacted, "Can this Sky Eye Pose be used to attack other satellites?" Change the direction of its attack? ”

Wang Hammer didn't answer immediately, but thought about it for a while, and then discussed it with Li Zhengyang? Not? Wrong? After a while, Wang Hammer replied: "General, Tianyan has not tried such a combat method before, and its design goal is only to form a defensive network with a huge number of downward interception of missiles that rise into the air. If we want to do that, we're going to have to put it to the test. ”

"If you want to test it in actual combat......" Lin Hai was about to nod in agreement, and then thought of a question, "By the way, the eye of the sky weighs a ton, do we have the ability to send this thing into space now?" This isn't a space station, can it be assembled slowly in space? ”

"We can use a standard transport aircraft to transport satellites, and then, after the transport aircraft has reached its ultimate altitude, launch a propulsion rocket from the transport aircraft to launch the satellite into orbit." As he spoke, Wang Hammer released an analog image on the main projector, "Let's wrap the satellite in a heat-resistant and pressure-resistant shell first. Then a high-power thruster is installed behind the casing. Because the ultimate altitude of a standard transport aircraft can reach an altitude of 150 kilometers, the fuel of the propulsion rocket is saved, allowing the propulsion rocket to send a one-ton armed satellite into space. ”

"Then ......" Lin Hai opened his mouth, but stopped again.

Seeing that Lin Hai wanted to stop talking, he knew what Lin Hai wanted to ask, and Wang Hammer said directly: "This method is not suitable for building a space station. First, take the propulsion rockets that we can make at the moment. Putting a ton of objects into orbit is already the limit, and it can only be a one-time satellite, and it is impossible to use this method to send something into space and then assemble it, and the equipment cannot withstand such bumps. In addition, both propulsion rockets and Sky Eye armed satellites can only be manufactured at a high cost in the physics laboratory of the Advanced Technology Center. Because we don't have a production line to manufacture them in batches yet. Basically, for every satellite launched, we need 500 units of resources each. Although much less than building a space station. But it's not something that can be just launched and played. ”

"I see." Lin Hai sighed, only then did he really give up the space station plan, which was unrealistic in the current situation, and accepted the reality, and then he began to seriously think about the possibility of using the Sky Eye armed satellite, "If we need to deploy enough Sky Eye satellites to guard against possible ballistic missile attacks, or attack space targets that threaten us, you see." How many satellites are needed in this way? ”

"First of all, we definitely want to make sure that the area above us is safe. Therefore, "Li Zhengyang first marked the areas under his control on the map," Mount Kilimanjaro, Obia, Antarctica, and Alvinson. There must be an eye in the sky. These four regions require at least four satellites to operate. If, for the sake of security, this number would have to be tripled, twelve armed satellites would be needed. In addition to securing the skies above our heads, we also need to deploy armed satellites over forces that could attack us. ”…

"You mean to deploy the Sky Eye in the sky over the mainland of country M?" Lin Hai looked at the map. The signal markers that appeared in the sky over the area belonging to country M understood what Li Zhengyang meant, "That is to say, once the people of country M want to launch missiles, then we can intercept those missiles in advance, just when the missiles are launched." ”

"Exactly." Li Zhengyang said, "But after all, the power of our armed satellites is limited, and the range of 800 kilometers is not enough to cover the entire country M from space, and country M also has nuclear submarines that can submarine-launch ballistic missiles, so there are more satellites needed." If we want complete protection, then we can only fill the orbits of artificial satellites above the earth with armed satellites. At that level, there must be at least 1,000 satellites. ”

"That's a huge project." Lin Hai smiled bitterly, "We can't eat it at all now." ”

"So we have to have a plan to deploy satellites step by step. I am confident that we will not be immediately attacked by ballistic weapons. We still have plenty of time to complete this plan. ”

"That's good, as you said before, launch one into space first, test it, and see if it can be anti-satellite in addition to anti-missiles." Lin Hai turned to Zhou Yi, "Do we need to continue to build the ground defense base you mentioned?" After all, now that we have armed satellites, we don't have to be in such a hurry, we can take our time. You can also choose a suitable location first. ”

"Kilimanjaro is certainly not suitable." Zhou Yi replied casually, indicating that he had already considered this question, "It is a tourist mecca, and there are a lot of people, even if we can only enter and exit there at night now." Although we are in talks with the local government to lease a large area of the neighborhood for private use, it has not been negotiated. Neither can Obia, which has become the focus of attention from all sides. But if we make a big move, it will attract the attention of others. Alvinson can't, for the same reason as Obia, unless we build a completely hidden base here, and even the royal government doesn't tell us. The only thing left to build is the Antarctic base. It's sparsely populated, and it will be our future headquarters. It doesn't matter how much we toss, as long as it is not discovered by scientists in various countries. ”

"But there's no point in building at the Antarctic base, right?" Lin Hai said, "It's not necessary at all. The Antarctic base is more secluded and less easily spotted than the Kilimanjaro base. There's no need to build planetary defense bases. ”

After a pause, Lin Hai pointed to Alvinson's location on the map, and then said, "Don't talk about the Obiya base, after all, we may not be able to stay there for a long time. Let's start with Alvinson, we can build two bases, one is on the surface, and the local government has been informed. The other was built in secret in someone else's name. There will certainly be a lot of institutions coming in for the post-war reconstruction of Alvinson, and we can set up a leather bag company, like Qianhuayu, to carry out the works here. Moreover, in order to restore the economy, Alvinson will definitely attract large-scale investment from both outside and at home, and at that time, it will be easy for us to build such underground defense bases and go unnoticed. ”

"yes, that's a good idea." Zhou Yi nodded and agreed with Lin Hai's statement, "I really didn't think that I could use the people's livelihood aspect to cover for us." ”

"It should also be noted that the construction of the two bases had to be separated, staggered and not reminiscent of each other. Therefore, two bases cannot be deployed in the same area. ”

"We all know that, General." After Zhou Yi finished speaking, he directly conveyed the order in front of the operation console, "Let's use this airport and the surrounding area for the base on the surface, anyway, we have expanded the airport a lot, and there are mountains, water, and forests near here, and then build a town for simulating street battles can be used as a training base." ”

"I don't care about that, you go and talk to the one who sits on the throne. As for the other secret base, I guess it could be set up in Wesley. With that kind of destruction in that city, it will take more time and materials to rebuild, and it will be on a larger scale, so it will be easier for us to intervene. As for the specific location, you will send experts to explore before deciding. (To be continued......)
