Chapter 1589 New Super Unit: Floating Island Fortress

Cai Ruichen glanced over all the new units under advanced authority, but he didn't go through the description of each one.

After watching Phantom Apocalypse, I directly set my sights on super weapons.

As he expected, two of the three super weapons unlocked by the advanced authority are already owned by him, and the third super weapon is the floating island fortress that he does not yet have.

The floating island fortress is also a super weapon. Cai Ruichen is also very impressed with this unit. In Red Alert III, the floating island fortress of the Sun Empire is still one of the mission backgrounds.

Just putting this thing here as a super weapon, Cai Ruichen really doesn't understand.

Is this thing worth the superweapon class?

When he opened the golden icon of the Floating Island Fortress, Cai Ruichen's thoughts were instantly overturned.

Floating Island Fortress: A super weapon unit, an unsinkable military fortress floating on the sea, has a super strong defense like an island, comparable to land, and can withstand various devastating blows. The fortress is the territory, which can sail freely on the sea, and has a huge space above it, which can be built into various floating military bases according to the needs. The floating island fortress itself has 24 large electromagnetic guns, which are used as super strike weapons to prevent the approach of enemy ships, but other defensive units need to be built separately.

The construction price is five billion, and the construction time is half a year.

Instructions for building super weapons: Each base vehicle can only build one floating island fortress. (Sub-base vehicles also count)

Explanation: When the floating island fortress was built, it had 24 large electromagnetic railguns, 4 large docks and 36 port berths. The underwater part had 12 submarine bases and a small iron curtain. The defense device can deploy the Iron Curtain system covering the entire island, and it lasts for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, the energy of the Iron Curtain is exhausted, and it takes at least ten days to replenish the energy. The fortress has two nuclear fusion reactors, which are self-sufficient. The electricity demand of the whole fortress.

Floating island fortress data: The fortress is eight kilometers long, four kilometers wide, with a draft of 180 meters, a water surface height that can be adjusted between 100 meters and 10 meters, a normal cruising speed of 8 knots, and a maximum speed of 12 knots. Electromagnetic rail guns can strike ultra-long-distance water and land targets, with a maximum strike distance of 800 kilometers. Large docks can provide repair and maintenance services for ships, and port berths can dock any large ships and warships. The fortress is divided into five floors. A variety of facilities can be built in the space on the first floor, which can be allocated and arranged by the commander.

Description of the development of the Floating Island Fortress: You can freely choose to build all normal units and super units on the floating island fortress. It can be regarded as a territory that can move on the sea. It is the super frontier of the Corps' overseas offensive and can carry tens of millions of tons of war supplies.

Super weapon description: Think of it as a movable island, an unsinkable island.

...

The description of the Floating Island Fortress was very clear, and Cai Ruichen immediately understood that this thing is really a super weapon no matter whether it is placed in the world or in the wasteland.

Just the 30-minute Iron Curtain and the 24 large electromagnetic rail guns on it are almost comparable to super weapons.

A military fortress that can float on the sea and move freely, with an area of ​​32 square kilometers, is simply an existence against the sky.

With the current financial, manpower and material resources of various countries, it is entirely possible to build a similar floating fortress, but there is no need to do so.

For the United States, there is nothing that cannot be solved by an aircraft carrier battle group before. If one aircraft carrier battle group is not enough, then three will come.

For the United States, things like floating island fortresses are only a matter of cost and cost performance.

For countries, there is indeed no need to build such a floating sea base.

The United States has military bases all over the world, and aircraft can be transferred around the world, but there is no way for other countries. However, countries do not have similar interests in the world as the United States, and they are completely useless, not to mention that they cannot be built casually. come out.

The Red Police Corps is completely different. In Cai Ruichen's view, it is impossible for the future federation to have fixed military bases around the world like the United States, and there is no time to intervene in global interests.

However, the Red Police Corps is very likely to go thousands of kilometers away to fight overseas, and it is very likely that it will intervene in the interests and affairs of Southeast Asia, and it may even send troops to Southeast Asian countries.

The red police corps ran for thousands of miles, and the long supply line was a huge problem, but with such a fortress, the situation was completely different.

A large number of troops can directly live on the floating island fortress, and all kinds of weapons and equipment can also be used and maintained on it. It is a complete mobile base for the armed forces of the sea, land and air.

It is even possible to build a small city on it, which can be regarded as a city with a combination of military and civilian uses floating on the sea.

Of course, it doesn't mean that the higher-ups will really arrange for civilians to live there, which is a bit unrealistic, but as a complete military base, a military base belonging to the three armed forces, there is no problem at all.

And when at sea, it can also become a supply station for ocean-going navy, and all facilities that can be found on land and ports can be found on it.

On a land of 32 square kilometers, it is no problem to build a large air force base and station thousands of various aircraft, and it can even take off and land super large transport aircraft like An-225.

The Army and Marine Corps can even have their own training grounds, shooting ranges, and exercise ranges.

There are ore refineries, as well as war factories, arsenals and chariot factories, which can integrate the entire industry to it.

Of course, living quarters can also be set up. There is no problem at all with more than 100,000 troops stationed on a land of more than 30 square kilometers.

What's more, the floating island fortress is not only on the surface, but the huge part under the water is also an incomparably huge space, all of which can be used.

This is a bit similar to the underground kingdom under the main base vehicle, each floor can be used to arrange various facilities.

Therefore, the actual usable area of ​​the floating island fortress is not a simple 32 square kilometers, but a total of 162 square kilometers. If it is fully constructed and utilized, it will transport millions of The strength of the army, without any pressure, can even live in millions of people.

After all, many of the cities in the world with a population of several million are not even 150 square kilometers in size.

If it is not mainly military, it is really a super city on the sea.

Super weapon, well deserved. (to be continued)). If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users please read here. )
