Papa Paladin

  Chapter 588 Son of the Dragon

  Battle mecha is the combat power multiplier of the extraordinary.

The world's first-class big and powerful countries such as Bactria, America, Iro, and Europe, as well as the second-level strengths such as Indy, Tislan, Feisen, and Japan, have invested a lot of manpower in this field Material resources to form the future mobile armor army.

  This invisible arms race started ten years ago.

  The practicability of the battle mech is unquestionable. After equipped with a battle mech, an F-level enhanced superhuman can completely crush E-level or even D-level similar ones, and the combat effectiveness in large-scale battles is even stronger.

  So far, relying on the creative capabilities of technological superhumans, the battle armor projects of various countries have matured. Many components and accessories can be put into actual combat use. The only thing that restricts the explosion of battle armor technology is the core power part.

   Solve the motivation, then there will be no obstacles.

  The field of high-energy power is precisely the weakness of Daxia. Even if there are a large number of technological supernatural beings without sufficient technological background and technical accumulation, it is impossible to suddenly burst out black technological technology.

   Now seeing that both America and Iro have made breakthroughs in this area, the senior management of Daxia is naturally restless.

  America and Europe are allies, and the two sides have long-term technical exchanges. Once America officially installs combat armor, then Europe will definitely receive corresponding support soon—even if it is a castrated version.

   Daxia and Yiluo also have a mutual aid covenant, but Yiluo is no less prepared against Daxia than against Europe, and Yiluo people are greedy in character, and they must pay a very high price if they want to obtain their power technology.

  Bactrians are used to self-reliance, and buying Iro technology is the last option unless absolutely necessary.

   "I want to see our armor."

  As a member of Great Xia, Zuo Yi of the lawful camp is willing to contribute to the country, but although he has some ideas, he must not speak at will before seeing the actual armor.

"no problem."

  Wu Yongjian had been prepared for a long time, and immediately brought Zuo Yi to the secret laboratory of the underground base of the Surveillance Management Bureau.

   Daxia's battle armor project is code-named "Son of the Dragon", and the level of secrecy is extremely high. Except for Wu Yongjian and Lu Guang who participated in the project, Qin Qin is not eligible to enter the battle armor laboratory.

   On the test bench in the underground laboratory, Zuo Yi saw two battle mechs filled with various cables.

   "This is Yazi Type I..."

  Lu Guang pointed to the silver-red painted armor on the right and said, "The main battle armor!"

   Then he pointed to another dark green armor with a larger size and thicker armor beside him and introduced: "This is the Tyrant I, an auxiliary battle armor."

  The "Son of the Dragon" project is led by the Daxia Cabinet, with the Daxia National Defense Army and Xia Chaolian as the main research and development forces, and the three major laboratories of the Imperial Capital, Shanghai and Jiangnan Super Management Bureau jointly participated.

   At the beginning of the "Son of the Dragon" project, two different models were determined to meet different combat needs.

Up to now, the completion rate of the first-generation Yazi I has reached 89.7%, and the completion of the first-generation Paxia I is 92.5%. They are all stuck on the power core, especially the Baxia I. package, it can be directly listed.

   Without strong power, they are just slick but useless goods!

  Zuo Yi noticed that there was a square metal bag mounted on the back of Yazi Ⅰ and Baxia Ⅰ.

   "This is a high energy fuel pack..."

   Lu Guang noticed Zuo Yi's gaze and explained: "Limited to the size, the battery life is very poor."

  High energy fuel pack is the energy source for Warframe engines.

   Both Yazi Ⅰ and Baxia Ⅰ first-generation aircraft are equipped with six miniature ion engines. If it is only for assisting in combat, then the reserves in the fuel pack are sufficient, but once they take off into the air, it is seriously insufficient.

  The current fuel pack is only enough to support the first-generation Yazi I to fly for more than half an hour. If the altitude and speed are increased, the time will be greatly shortened.

  The larger and heavier Baxia Type I is even worse.

  The other biggest problem is that such a large high-energy fuel package is too easy to become the target of enemy attacks. Even if it is covered with armor, it is also a fatal weakness.

  Moreover, the armor of the fuel pack is thickened, which also affects the battery life, which is simply an unsolvable bug.

   In contrast, America’s Titan Armor and Iro’s Warrior Armor have no similar problems. Their power cores are obviously placed inside the armor, and they are technologically superior!

  After listening to Lu Guang's introduction, Zuo Yi touched his chin and asked, "If the fuel pack is removed, can it still be used?"

"OK."

  Lu Guang replied without hesitation: "The fuel pack is a modular external standard part. We have considered technical factors before, so we also designed the battery pack."

  Battery packs are much thinner than fuel packs, they are stronger and better for defense, and they will not catch fire and explode if they are penetrated by ammunition.

  The problem is that the battery pack can’t drive the ion engine, so after replacing it, the armor loses its ability to fly, and can only supply energy to the built-in electronic system and firepower system, at most as an auxiliary power.

   In this way, the mobility of the armor is greatly reduced, and the combat power is also much weaker. It can be used, but don't expect to compete with the opponent.

   "Then replace the battery pack..."

  Zuo Yi said with great interest: "Let me try Yazi Type I."

If someone else made such a request, it would definitely not work. You must know that the "Son of the Dragon" project is extremely secret, and only Lu Guang, who is in charge of the project, can get started directly in the entire Jiangnan Super Management Bureau, and Wu Yongjian did not use the equipment. authority.

  But Zuo Yi's authority is enough.

  Lu Guang immediately commanded the laboratory staff to remove the test device of the first-generation Yazi I, and then removed the high-energy fuel pack and replaced it with a thin and light battery pack.

   This set of battle armor is designed with high redundancy. Unless the user's body is very special, most people can use it, and Zuo Yi is no exception.

  With the help of Lu Guang, Zuo Yi quickly equipped himself with the Yazi Type I.

  Limited to technology, the battle mech is far less powerful than the Iron Man suit in comics and movies, but it has many similarities in terms of functions. Yazi I is equipped with advanced intelligent control system and fire control system, and its control performance is very good.

  Under the guidance of the intelligent armor system, Zuo Yi easily mastered its basic usage, and then conducted the first test in the testing field next door.

   From starting to running, to melee combat and long-range weapon attack, it only took more than half an hour, and Zuo Yi has already played the Yazi Type I to the point where he can use his fingers.
