With a length of 11 meters and a diameter of 1.55 meters, the size of the missile would be 20.7 cubic meters. With a storage space of 30 cubic meters, it wouldn't be a problem to move it to the real world.
"Did you put in the combat components?" The combat components Jiang Chen was referring to were obviously the nuclear components.
"500,000-ton hydrogen warhead. Welding the outer shell, almost done. "Jiang Lin raised his thumb and pointed at the busy mechanical arm.
What was the concept of a 500,000-ton nuclear warhead? It could be described as four numbers.
Exposed personnel: 4.1
Tank personnel: 1.9
Bomb shelter personnel: 0.7
Personnel in Permanent Fortifications: 0.46]
The four numbers corresponded to the lethal radius (kilometers) of the 500,000-ton nuclear warhead to personnel behind different hidden objects, and this didn't include radiation contamination. Of course, this was based on the modern world's standard of protection.
The power armors and tanks in the apocalypse were usually equipped with a lead metal fiber layer, so they were much more resistant to radiation damage. Because of this, the strategic use of nuclear warheads was mainly to paralyze the enemy's infrastructure through dirty bombs, as well as to restrict light infantry from entering the battlefield.
The almost uninterceptable 500,000-ton nuclear warhead only needed to deploy two or three at the bottom of the ocean to form a nuclear deterrent. Once Xin announced that it would become a nuclear country with global strike capability, even if UA wanted to attack Xin, it would have to weigh the total market value of New York and Capital.
Deterrence was enough.
If possible, Jiang Chen hoped he would never have to use it.
Once the nuclear button was pressed, it wouldn't be able to stop. Even with the technology of the 22nd century, it couldn't stop this simple and crude weapon.
"How many nuclear warheads can the remaining nuclear materials make?" Jiang Chen asked.
"Including the uranium in the base, as well as the nuclear materials collected from the Sixth Street, two more can be made." Jiang Lin estimated and gave a conservative number.
The materials needed to make dirty bombs were lithium compounds of thorium and tritium, and the uranium-235 was only used as the detonator. There was only one way to obtain tritium on the wasteland, which was to extract one or two grams of tritium from the nuclear materials that hadn't been used up.
Of course, it would be easier to make a non-dirty bomb thermonuclear weapon. Helium-3 extracted from a civilian nuclear fusion battery could be used as the raw material. However, because the thermonuclear reaction between helium-3 and deuterium would only produce non-radioactive protons, the use of helium-3 as a nuclear warhead material would not produce radiation, so the deterrent would be much smaller.
This technology had not been developed in the modern world, and even if the technical conditions were met, it would be difficult to achieve.
The total reserves of helium-3 on Earth were estimated to be only 500 kilograms, and the nearest helium-3 vein was on the moon.
Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction and smiled. "Very good, your next task is to create two Peace Messengers."
"Are you going to use this to kill xenogeneics? Forgive me for being blunt, but nuclear weapons are not very effective against mutants. Those things crawled out of nuclear craters. Also, the nuclear crater created by the explosion could be used as a nest by mutants like the Death Claw, "Jiang Lin hesitated and reminded.
"Of course not against Mutants. If I wanted to blow up xenogeneics, I could just use a cannon to fire a nuclear bomb. Why would I waste my energy on a ballistic missile? As to where to use it, you don't have to worry about it. Just help me move the missile to the backyard of my mansion. "
After that, Jiang Chen turned around and left.
As the general, he didn't need to explain his actions to anyone. Because of this, Jiang Lin let out a helpless sigh and ordered everyone to prepare to move Dolphin-10.
…
Back in the backyard of the mansion, Jiang Chen began to dismantle the eight containers Wang Zhaowu brought back from camp 27. The 400 tons of equipment included two construction robots, a deep-sea submersible that could seat up to four people, as well as engineering and mining modules that could be attached to the submersible.
The construction robots were great. Based on the engineering information downloaded from the smart chip, they could automatically complete preset projects. Although the speed of automated construction was not as fast as manual control, it was more accurate and convenient.
For example, if Jiang Chen wanted to modify the warship sold to him by Russia, he only needed to use a scanner to scan the model of the warship and bring it back. Then the experts in Fallout Shelter 027 would use the quantum computer to design the modification plan for the warship, and then download the engineering information onto the smart chip of the construction robot. All he needed to do was provide the materials, and the specific construction steps would be automatically completed by the construction robots.
After returning to the modern world.
Jiang Chen drove the boat alone to his deserted island located east of Ange Island.
The advantage of Pannu Islands was that there were a lot of islands. Because of the ten billion USD project, most of the uninhabited islands in Xin were under his name. This included the island named "Coconut". Although when Jiang Chen landed on the island, he didn't see many coconut trees. Most of the trees were from the tropical rainforest and bare sand.
After traveling back and forth between the modern world and the apocalypse, Jiang Chen first moved the two construction robots and the drone terminal over.
With a height of 1.5 meters and a streamlined shell, although it looked dumb, it was not sloppy at all when it came to work. The crab pincer arms were equipped with a plasma welding gun, multi-purpose wrench, and a series of tools. The half-track, half-walking chassis allowed it to move quickly on flat ground and traverse all terrain.
In the dense forest in the middle of the island, a drone terminal was placed. Jiang Chen released 20 Hummingbird drones to scan the less than one square kilometer island and then logged the holographic map onto the tablet controlling the construction robots.
After completing the data transfer, Jiang Chen then traveled back and forth a few more times to move the components of the submersible, the drone terminal, the parts of the solar generator, and some steel and cement materials.
Then Jiang Chen pointed his finger and first marked the place where the materials were stored on the island. Then he selected a location on the higher terrain of the island on the 3D map and set the solar panel construction project.
The two engineering robots immediately turned the tracks on the chassis and drove toward the components of the Yang Kai Energy Generator. After moving the components to the construction site, the two construction robots began to skillfully set up the solar generator.
After waiting for 15 minutes, Jiang Chen looked at the two robots with satisfaction as they completed the task at hand.
"This is amazing."
Looking at the masterpiece completed by the two robots, Jiang Chen couldn't help but exclaim.
No wonder it was the technology of the 22nd century. It was fully automated and made building a house as easy as playing an RTS game. If this technology was available, many construction companies would go crazy over it.
Of course, Jiang Chen wouldn't introduce it to the world in the short term.
The real good stuff should be in his hands and then thrown out when he was bored.
Holding the tablet in his hand, Jiang Chen then set the two robots to connect the wires to the drone terminal to charge. Then he deployed a dual-berth dock project on the coast and listed the assembly of the submersible into the construction queue.
Looking at the sign on the screen, Jiang Chen confirmed that he didn't miss anything before he turned off the tablet.
Next, he just needed to wait for the construction to be completed.
To ensure the security and confidentiality of the island, Jiang Chen thought for a while and finally decided not to station Celestial Trade soldiers here. It wasn't because he didn't trust his subordinates, but he was worried that those with ulterior motives watching Celestial Trade's movements might notice this place.
And once there were living people stationed on the island, it meant that supplies would need to be continuously transported to the island. This would weaken the secrecy of "Coconut Island". At least before the construction robots completed the construction, it was better to keep the island a secret.
So for now, the most suitable thing to serve as security was the drone.
Returning to the drone terminal, Jiang Chen changed the behavior program of the drone from reconnaissance to alert. Once the drone noticed a ship approaching, the fourth-dimensional signal device inside would send an alert to his EP.
After doing all this, Jiang Chen stretched and returned to the apocalypse.
But what he didn't expect was that when he returned, he encountered a major incident.
