Chapter One Thousand and Fifty Seven
Leaving the training center, the hoplites are stationed outside. Unlike other arms, the hoplites have very complex garrison facilities because of the armor of individual soldiers, and in order to keep confidentiality as much as possible, the entire garrison is a closed building. ?E Xiao? ??say ??? ??????????
However, the so-called resident in front of me is actually an empty shell on the surface. From the outside world, it looks more like a factory, but it is just a huge factory building, and I don't know what it is.
The same is true for the training center next to it. On the surface, they are no different from those factories.
In the hoplite's garrison, there is a passage leading to the underground kingdom. The real hoplite's garrison is actually in the underground kingdom.
After more than three years of construction, the underground kingdom has begun to take shape, and a large number of units in the base are all concentrated in the underground kingdom, which has become a veritable underground industrial cluster.
Entering the heavy infantry garrison, the first thing you can see is the neat rows of closed mechanical devices in the middle of the garrison.
The number of these mechanical devices is so large that it is almost impossible to see at a glance. There is an underground hangar next to it. In the underground hangar, you can see rows of Nighthawk helicopters and peacekeeping transport planes, and even mountain-moving transport planes and three A jumbo-like super transport aircraft.
In the station, a large number of engineers in yellow overalls shuttled around these closed mechanical devices, and their personal terminals were comparing the data in the mechanical devices, as if they were adjusting something.
When he and Yang Wu came to the garrison, Cai Ruichen got on an electric car directly. With such a huge garrison of hoplites, it was a waste of time to walk on two feet alone.
What's more, after entering the gate of the heavy infantry garrison, you still need to walk through a huge training ground before you can reach the real garrison.
At the moment, in the garrison training ground, teams of heavy infantry wearing individual armor are conducting routine training inside.
Subjects like obstacle training are the most important training methods for hoplites, and every hoplite needs to be able to use individual armor like his own body.
The complex battlefield environment also requires every hoplite to be able to move and dodge flexibly and counterattack under maneuvering actions.
And this is just an ordinary training ground. There is no gravity room in a professional training center, and the goal is the same as in general training physical fitness and reflexes.
The arrival of Cai Ruichen,
It didn't disturb the training here, and all the hoplites still carried out various trainings very simply.
Watching the two-meter-high individual armor in the training ground, jumping up and down like monkeys on the training ground. Although Cai Ruichen was expressionless, there was indescribable satisfaction in his heart.
He is not a rookie who just got the base, and he can see the outstanding side of these soldiers.
And looking at these tall individual armors, he also felt a little excited.
Reinforced iron bones, standing upright. This is the true romance of a man.
However, the individual armor looks majestic, but it cannot dominate the current battlefield, because the survival probability of such individual armor on the battlefield is not too high.
The individual armor of hoplites is also a kind of mecha, and naturally there is a common problem with mechas, that is, the problem of practicality.
In this era of overwhelming defense, even main battle tanks can be easily destroyed by individual firepower. Thin power mechs, with current human material technology. It can be said that the action is false!
The reason why Cai Ruichen requested such training is because for individual soldiers, the ability to maneuver and move flexibly is the first attribute that needs to be preserved first.
For the contemporary real war system, the type of mecha that is most likely to become a valuable existence-the tonnage level is above the individual soldier and below the main battle tank. Deployed to the front line of war in any hotspot area, adapt to any high temperature, low cold, mountainous, jungle environment.
The operation is simple, flexible and humanized, and it can cooperate with individual soldiers. It is a general-purpose multi-functional mech that provides fire support for squad or platoon-level combat units, and can also perform related logistics work after combat.
Just like the history of the elimination and evolution of tanks on the battlefield that year, the mediocre individual armor of hoplites is not the most powerful, nor is the armor the strongest. But it is the most suitable for the needs of the battlefield environment.
After all, for long-distance battlefield maneuvering, mechas cannot be compared to main battle tanks, and heavy firepower projection cannot be compared to combat aircraft, but they can make up for many shortcomings in today's battlefield environment.
Human-shaped general-purpose mechas can squeeze out their own place in the army's equipment series only by giving full play to their flexibility and filling the gaps in demand that still exist on the battlefield.
But even so. There are still many chronic problems in the use of mechas, and the existence of these chronic problems will bring a lot of troubles to the use of mechas.
One of the most obvious problems is logistics. The overly complex structure of the mecha will obviously greatly increase the probability of failures and accidents, and logistics is the biggest weakness of the mecha in use.
In this regard, the evolutionary history of various military equipment has left a profound lesson.
However, logistical problems are not a problem for the Red Police Corps, because all the maintenance of the mechas is done by the automated logistics support vehicle, and no workers are required to deal with the mechanical failure of the mechas.
If it weren't for the fully automated logistics support vehicles, it would be a disaster to let the mechs with complex structures engage in more complex combat tasks.
The structure of individual armor is very complicated, plus there are a large number of weapon modules to choose to replace, maintenance and logistics, if it is placed in the army of any country, it will be a tragedy.
If the Red Police Corps wants to use such individual armor on the battlefield, it also needs sufficient logistical support.
One of them is the battery supply that provides power to individual armor. Six hours of high-intensity combat sounds like a lot, but in a high-intensity battlefield, six hours is very short.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, individual armor will carry a spare battery, and it must be able to replenish ammunition and power logistic support at any time.
However, these are not the most troublesome, the most troublesome thing is how to send such individual armor to the battlefield.
It is simply impossible for heavy infantry to wear armor and maneuver together with ordinary infantry.
And if you want to bring individual mechas to follow the large army, you need to make many preparations.
Any additional preparations will put more burden on the troops to move quickly, and the same is true for individual armor.
Fortunately, the development of the Red Police Corps has always been pursuing sufficient logistical support, and a new logistical support system has been added, which is nothing compared to the combat effectiveness of the heavy infantry. (To be continued.)
