"Mass-accelerated electromagnetic orbital weapons are also a good option, but like nuclear bombs, ammunition needs to be transported from the ground into space. It's just that the cost of this weapon is much cheaper than a nuclear bomb. In terms of technology in this era, there are still problems of large volume and high energy consumption. We can compare it with laser weapons. ”

"Ionic weapons are mainly used to collect a large number of free hydrogen ions without electrons in space. These hydrogen ions are derived from solar radiation, and when the high-energy particles produced by solar radiation pass through the vicinity of the ion cannon, the ion cannon collects the hydrogen ions and emits the high-energy hydrogen ions through the emitting device. When the Ion Cannon attacks on the ground, it first fires a large number of electron beams to "soften" the atmosphere in preparation for the next attack, and it will also cause stormy weather, and then it will launch high-energy balls of positively charged hydrogen ions for large-scale destruction. ”

"In terms of raw materials, the ion cannon collects endless 'ammunition' directly from the solar wind, and the operating energy is also derived from solar energy, so most of the ions are cationic hydrogen nuclei, so the ion beam will emit a brilliant blue light after entering the atmosphere. In terms of lethality, the ion cannon will undergo obvious small-scale hydrogen fusion, which has some of the characteristics of nuclear weapons, but does not have any permanent environmental destruction. In fact, another space-based orbital weapon platform that has been used most by the Global Defense Forces themselves in parallel space is the Ion Cannon. ”

"In other words, I may have an ion cannon in the future?" "∷Top"∷Point"∷Small"∷ said, Lin Hai suddenly came to his senses, looking at the scene of the ion cannon shooting displayed on the holographic projection equipment, his expression looked very yearning.

"It's for the future, and it's useless to say it now." Zhou Yi looked at the excited Lin Hai with some helplessness, "With the technology of the current era, the ion cannon can only be regarded as science fiction for the time being, so we won't mention it for now." Let's talk about solar-focused weapons. ”

said. Zhou Yi called up a virtual projection map, which was an umbrella-shaped object, which was extremely large compared to the International Space Station next to it.

"This is ......" Lin Hai looked at the huge umbrella-shaped object hesitantly, "solar concentrator?" ”

"Exactly, this umbrella-shaped or pot-lid-shaped device is recessed. All of them are highly workmanipulated reflective lenses. It can concentrate sunlight at one point and consume no energy on its own. In terms of launch cost, this method is the most economical. Basically, such a reflective, solar-focused device can be a space station or a stand-alone weapon system. Of course, this also has its own shortcomings, first of all, it is a matter of size. The more powerful and the higher the focusing energy, the larger the area of the lens. It's easy to spot. Secondly, the attack is affected by the position of the sun, and if the sun is blocked, or the angle is insufficient, the system is useless. And it will be very slow to change orbit because of its large size. ”

"Such systems are vulnerable to ground-based weapons systems or other space-based weapon systems. And with today's technology, it is also an impossible project. So we also rule it out. After Zhou Yi roughly finished talking about those space-based weapon systems that will appear in the future. Other space-based weapon systems have been removed, leaving only the laser weapon system, "this is the most likely and easiest to achieve by the current technical means." ”

"So the purpose of what they want those scientists is to probably create a space-based laser weapon system in space?" Lin Hai nodded understandingly, "Use solar panels or directly install a small nuclear fusion reactor." to supply energy to the laser emission system. This is indeed achievable. ”

"That's right, and based on the information we have so far, if the laser weapon technology of various countries wants to attack other space equipment from space, even the ground, its entire system volume needs to be at the scale of a small space station. And it has to be a case of no cost. But it's already pretty good. Once successful, whoever has a greater say. ”

"I believe that." Lin Hai said, "In the current new Cold War environment, laser weapons can effectively intercept those ballistic missiles. If the people of country M have such weapons, then they will naturally suppress the people of country E and our country Z again. ”

"So what are we going to do about this?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Well...... Lin Hai hesitated for a moment, then said, "Can we build our own space-based weapon system now?" ”

"Uh, what's this......" Zhou Yi smiled bitterly, "Not for the time being, the space command transmission center can only launch small reconnaissance satellites into space, and if we want to launch space equipment like a space-based weapon system, which is at worst a medium-sized volume, we still need to unlock it again." ”

"Then the order goes on, we just keep an eye on the space operations of the people of country M, and keep an eye on their every space launch. As for whether the people of country M really want to kidnap scientists from various countries, as long as we don't involve ourselves, we will leave it to them for the time being. ”

"If they're going to do something to the scientists, then Miss Anya is afraid she's going to get in trouble again, so that's okay?"

"Inform Qian Huayu and send additional people to protect secretly. Thinking so, there should be no problem. As soon as he finished saying this, Lin Hai added, "When we have more information, we will tell Lin Shigong about this, saying that we have received news that there are foreign forces trying to kidnap the scientists of country Z." In this way, there should be no mistakes. ”

"Understood. Also, I think that while we can't build our own space-based weapons platform right now, we should be prepared to defend ourselves. ”

"Defense?" Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, and then agreed, "You're right, it's hard to guarantee that we won't be attacked by space-based weapons in the future, so naturally we have to have a plan to deal with it." So what do you recommend? Do we build planetary defense systems? ”

"It's just one of the options." Zhou Yi replied, "The ground planetary defense system is a relatively large project, which includes multiple sets of weapon platforms such as laser railgun missiles, and a defense system is a super-large base. Only in this way will the defense system have sufficient firepower and defense area. In our current situation, it is unlikely that we will be able to build a base of this magnitude unless we actually control a country. Otherwise, it would be impossible to build a base of this scale under the noses of others. ”

"I know this," Lin Hai nodded, indicating that he understood, and then said, "This plan will be discussed after our strength has reached a higher level." Tell us about other options. ”

"Considering that even if the people of country M succeed in building a space-based weapon platform, it will not be too big, so we can let Lieutenant Colonel Li Bai use the Dragon Eagle fighter to enter the low-earth orbit to attack. The Dragon Eagle is equipped with anti-satellite missiles. ”

Lin Hai asked suspiciously: "But if the people of country M really build a space-based weapon platform with lasers as the main means of attack, then won't the dragon eagle be attacked?" Won't the missile launched by Li Bai be intercepted? ”

"When they are done, of course they may pose some threat to us. But we can destroy the platform before they can build it. ”

"Early destruction is just a means, but not what I want to hear now, we have an infinite number of means to destroy it early. Now I just want to know what to do after the other party has already built the platform. ”

"Judging from our current level of technology, if we don't want to use the Dragon Eagle to risk attacking, then we can only consider the ground weapon system."

"Didn't you say that this scheme was too conspicuous?"

"We can make small-scale defense bases." Zhou Yi replied, "I believe that there will not be too many weapon platforms for the people of country M, after all, the cost of manufacturing them with the current technology is very high." In the current economic environment, it is impossible for the people of country M to have the money to make too many. ”

"Then tell me what's going on with your small-scale defense model base."

"A small-scale defense base, as its name suggests, is just a facility with a small footprint, a low attack frequency, and a small defense coverage area." (To be continued......)
