"Woo······"

After a long steam whistle, the doors of the cabins on the aft deck opened one by one, and a group of fat albatross with slender wings walked out with their short thick legs.

This group of heavyweight albatrosses, with a wingspan of more than 4 meters and a weight of 40 kilograms, is the treasure used by the Royal Navy to form the [Naval Tactical Research Group].

Immediately after getting out of the fledgling stage, they can take off directly with a weight of 15 pounds.

This is already an extremely scary "horror" achievement among birds, you know, that group of falcons that have been trained for 6 years can only take off with a weight of less than a catty.

However, at the beginning, the [Kunpeng] team was not satisfied with this result.

They are one of the secret weapons of the kingdom's army, and it is impossible to sleep on the credit book, although some animal talents cannot be further developed.

However, if you don't give it a try, how can this group of fierce generals be willing.

Therefore, in the nearly two years of training and exercises, they have constantly summed up their experiences, overcome difficulties, and worked hard to innovate.

Finally, a new method of warfare has been explored, and this take-off method can maximize the weight-bearing capacity of the albatross, that is, high-altitude gliding take-off.

Using the high-altitude gliding take-off method, the albatross can even take off with two bombs weighing 25 pounds each, and glide for 3 hours in a row.

Just as the albatross and their handler walked out of the hatch together, the ground crew of the [Naval Tactical Research Group] was already running quickly.

They pushed the ammunition boxes of the bombs, the drinking water buckets with small pipes, and the feed boxes filled with fresh marine fish to a small platform next to the three masts and two chimneys.

After choosing their respective positions and standing still, the ground crews quickly fixed these boxes, barrels, and basins on the ground hooks, and at this time, in order to prevent the containers from flying and smashing into their own people in the case of sudden strong wind and waves.

When the stationary work was completed and everything was ready, the ground crew, who was in charge of ammunition, was the first to get busy.

They put two 25-pound bombs in the fixed pits on each platform.

This kind of aerial bomb is the "latest high-tech crystallization" specially developed by the Royal Ordnance Research Institute.

This kind of 25-pound aerial bomb has several external and internal insurances, and if it does not meet certain conditions, it is impossible to be detonated.

This first insurance, which is the most basic insurance, is called "ground insurance", that is, when the bomb is on the ground and ready to take off, it must not be opened.

If this ground safety is not opened, even if the fuse on the warhead is smashed with a hammer, even if the warhead of the aerial bomb is shattered, it is impossible to explode.

Because at this time, the fuses, detonators, initiating charges, and high-explosive charges inside the bombs are not in a straight line at all, and they are blocked by solid bombs in different compartments and cannot be seen.

This second safety is called "high-altitude safety", and this safety is a rope that connects the internal structure of the bomb, which is generally hidden under the release device of the first insurance.

None of the projectiles will appear on the body until the first ground safety is lifted.

Only when the ground safety is lifted will a pull tab appear under the first safety device, which will be attached to the albatross's claws before takeoff.

When the albatross arrives at its destination, the little ones only need to release their claws, and the excellent aerodynamic shape ensures that the bomb keeps its head down during the free fall.

When the bombs fall to a certain distance, the albatross that drops the bombs is far away from the explosion range of the bombs, and after reaching a safe distance, the second high-altitude safety attached to their claws will be broken, and the high-altitude safety hidden inside the bombs will be completely lifted.

Until this time, the mechanical impact fuse, detonator, high explosive charge inside the bomb, and other structures and devices inside the bomb will really be in the same straight line and communicate with each other.

However, even at this time, the matter is not over.

There is also a safety insurance measure of "anti-minor impact insurance" in the bomb, that is, the strong spring inside the fuse.

In the fuse, the firing pin is mounted in the central cavity of a very finely machined spring of excellent and powerful alloy.

Ordinary bumps, or rather, if the falling speed of the bomb does not reach a certain level, even if the firing pin of the mechanical impact fuse is activated, and the firing pin is rushed towards the detonator, it is useless.

Under the huge resistance of the strong alloy spring, the impact of a certain strength cannot be reached, and the firing pin cannot touch the detonator at all, and the bomb cannot be detonated.

Only when the bomb exceeds the design speed, the mechanical impact fuse of the head hits a hard object, and the firing pin in the fuse breaks through the resistance of the strong spring under sufficient potential energy, and hits the detonator violently, will the detonator completely detonate the bomb.

In this, if any detail goes wrong, the bomb will not be detonated, and it will become a dud.

Originally, the Ordnance Research Institute, at the beginning, was going to use a very simple, inexpensive, mass-produced fuse-style aerial bomb.

However, the researchers at the Ordnance Research Institute really underestimated the curiosity and mischievous character of this group of unnaturally born albatrosses like bear children.

The first three batches of more than 200 training bombs with a fuse were playfully opened by this group of "bear children" when they were all trained on the ground.

Fortunately, in the beginning, all training shells were used for safety.

The training bomb only mimicked the weight and aerodynamic shape of the aerial bomb, and did not actually contain explosives.

The training bomb was originally a type of ammunition that appeared to save training expenses, and the explosives that should have been loaded inside were replaced with sand of the same weight.

Fortunately, the problem was discovered during the initial lift-off training, otherwise, I am afraid that the entire [Naval Tactical Research Group], and even the high-cost all-steel test ship "Baxia", would have been blown up to ashes.

Although the bad habits of the "bear children" can be corrected under the careful training of the trainers, Chen Xin believes that this is too dangerous.

If you are an adult, you can definitely avoid accidents after you have a sense of danger, but although albatrosses have a certain IQ, they are not as smart as humans after all.
