Chapter 160: Special Combat Transport Plane

After gathering everyone’s opinions, Tang Rui returned to the laboratory once again and modified the exoskeleton. This time, the design was much more humane.

As for the auxiliary power system, the soldiers of the special forces team unanimously agreed that it was not needed.

Compared to a few hours of usage, 48 hours sounded like a more reasonable number.

If it was just to increase mobility, there was actually no need.

Unless it could be used for a long period of time, the little bit of physical strength saved was nothing to the special forces.

Not to mention, with the help of the mechanical dog, which could carry weight and supplies, the auxiliary power could only increase mobility in battle, but it was basically useless during normal times.

With the specific design requirements, it would be done very quickly.

Tang Rui spent only ten minutes.

With Red Lotus’ cooperation, the design of the single exoskeleton was completed.

“Red Lotus, according to their physical data, create 24 sets of individual exoskeletons,” Tang Rui said to Red Lotus.

“Alright, Master. It’s being assembled. It’s expected to be completed at 4:10 am tomorrow.”

“Show me the small shuttle model I designed earlier.” After Tang Rui said that, he started to operate the model.

This small shuttle was designed for space tourism.

Now, he was going to modify it.

It was modified into an aircraft that was in line with the laws of the atmosphere. It could be used for stealth reconnaissance, ground support, and the delivery of troops. It would be used as a special aircraft for the special forces.

With this plane, the special forces team could penetrate behind enemy lines and carry out beheading operations.

Tang Rui spent half an hour modifying it.

In the end, he let Red Lotus run a simulation.

The design of this small plane was completed.

The body was 35 meters long, 8 meters wide, and 7 meters high. It was shaped like an acute triangle. The wings were integrated with the body at the top of the body, and the tail of the wings had an inclined angle.

It was equipped with two variable cycle engines, with a maximum speed of

Mach 6 and a maximum ferry range of 16000 kilometers. It could take off and land vertically.

It was equipped with a mobile multi-barrel heavy machine gun, four rocket nests, six air-to-air missiles, and close-range laser defense weapons.

It would require three crew, with the cabin able to accommodate up to 32 people, and it was equipped with a rescue basket and an emergency cable hoist. “Red Lotus, start building this plane.”

After Tang Rui took a final look at the model of this small transport plane, he let Red Lotus carry out the manufacturing.

“Alright, Master. It’s estimated to be completed in ten days.”

Tang Rui nodded after listening and got up to leave the laboratory.

He had defensive equipment and transportation tools but he lacked weapons. He wanted to go over and ask them what kind of weapons they needed before making them.

However, there was no hurry.

Tang Rui first went to the company to take a look at the situation of the employees.

It was only after lunch that Tang Rui groggily came to the edge of the building. This place was originally used as a staff dormitory.

However, none of the employees were staying there. It was just empty. Now was the perfect time for the special forces team to move in.

When Tang Rui arrived here, he discovered that the soldiers of the special forces squad were currently undergoing physical training.

Perhaps it was because the underlying injuries in his body had been healed. They had already reached the limit of their physical fitness, and they were about to break through again. This made them very excited.

Therefore, even if there was no training equipment there, could used still do physical training to maintain their physical condition.

As for Han Shu, he brought a few advisors to study the tactics of the special forces.

A few advisors?

Where did these people come from?

Tang Rui was a little dumbfounded.

“President Tang, you’re here. These people are the advisors of our Blue Army.

They’re all outstanding graduates of the Army Command College.”

After Han Shu finished talking to Tang Rui, he introduced Tang Rui to a few people.

“Hello, Consultant Tang.”

The few of them hurriedly bowed.

“Hello, we’re all on the same side. There’s no need to be so polite,” Tang Rui nodded and said with a smile.

“President Tang, why are you here?”

“I’m here to ask the members of the special forces team about the weapons they might need.”

“Alright, I’ll gather them now.”

A whistle sounded.

The 24 soldiers immediately ran over to gather.

“At ease, say a few words.”

Pa!

The members of the special forces team instantly stood at attention.

“Please take your time.”

The members of the special forces team were at ease again.

Han Shu told Tang Rui’s idea to the members of the special forces team and then asked them to raise any ideas they had.

“Report!” A soldier shouted.

“Please speak,” Tang Rui looked over and said.

“Consultant Tang, I’m a sniper. I want a sniper rifle with a longer range.” “Longer range? How far are we talking about?” Tang Rui asked.

” Precise shooting, two kilometers.”

“What about its caliber?”

“Can it penetrate a 5 mm steel plate from a distance of two kilometers?”

“No problem. Do you have any other requests?”

“Ballistic calculations?”

“Sure.”

“I have no further requests.”

“Alright, 1 got it. Where are the others?”

Tang Rui noted down the sniper’s request, then looked at the others and asked. “Report.”

“Please speak.”

“Consultant Tang, I’m an assaulter. I want a high-firing rate and high-power assault rifle,” another soldier said.

“Just tell me how fast the firing speed is and how powerful you want it to be.

Don’t worry that I can’t make it.”

Tang Rui really disliked the kind who wouldn’t provide an accurate description. “Report, the firing rate is more than 300 rounds per minute, and it can penetrate 35 mm thick steel plates in a 20 meter radius.”

This soldier directly revealed a rather frightening number.

Tang Rui didn’t feel anything after hearing it.

Was this a ridiculous number?

It was inconsequential.

Compared to his fighter jet, this was child’s play.

“No problem. Do you have any other requests?”

“No more.”

“Alright, next.”

Along with the soldiers of the special forces squad one after another revealing their requirements for weapons, Tang Rui also understood their needs.

This way, when he designed the weapon, the function would not deviate. “Brother Han, I understand the situation. You guys continue to study the warriors. I’ll go back and study the weapons first.”

After Tang Rui greeted Han Shu, he left.

He returned to the laboratory.

He wasn’t in a hurry to research weapons. Instead, he was thinking about a problem.

Gunpowder weapons.

He was definitely not going to do it anymore.

So, was he going to make laser weapons or electromagnetic weapons?

Both types had their advantages and disadvantages.

There was no need to mention laser weapons.

As long as there was enough energy, there would be unlimited ammunition. It came as a blessing for the forces, as they would not have to worry about ammunition problems.

There was no recoil, no delay, and no sound.

The weakness, however, was obvious. They couldn’t fight in all conditions. Once it encountered heavy fog, snow, or rain, the laser gun would be useless. Moreover, laser guns were too expensive and had complicated internal structures. It was easy for problems to occur and was not durable. Electromagnetic weapons were much better in this aspect.

As long as you don’t break the battery.

Electromagnetic weapons wouldn’t be broken.

Moreover, the range and kinetic energy of electromagnetic weapons far exceeded that of gunpowder bullets. After all, the energy conversion rate was there, and it had a high-limit treshhold.

Moreover, the penetration power was not bad. It was difficult for ordinary bunkers to block the penetration of electromagnetic projectiles.

However, it also had its shortcomings. It consumed too much energy.

Its battery simply wouldn’t last..
