Of course, a nuclear bomb could not be used.
It was the most lethal strategic weapon mankind had ever used. Anyone who dared to use it as a weapon would instantly become the public enemy of the world.
Becoming the public enemy of the world was equivalent to activating a nightmare level dungeon and facing an endless army of sanctions.
Monster Industries was just a technology company that knew its place and was dedicated to contributing to the development of society. Why would it make a nuclear bomb?
Even if the company had a technical department that refined weapons-grade enriched uranium, it was for the purpose of using clean energy to benefit society.
Besides, from Ye Qing's perspective, although the nuclear bomb was the number one weapon in terms of physical lethality.
However, as a weapon, especially a high-tech weapon, it was a little too outdated.
Nowadays, nuclear fission technology was no longer a secret to the outside world. The detailed characteristics of nuclear fission could even be downloaded from the public database.
Many countries with a certain industrial base had the ability to develop it.
However, during the development process, there was a high probability of accidentally activating an international sanctions dungeon and enjoying an endless supply of resources and economic sanctions.
Ye Qing needed a weapon with a higher technological level that could break through all the defenses built by existing technology and quietly launch a fatal blow to the warship.
First of all, he ruled out missiles, torpedoes, and artillery shells.
"Then why don't we use the electromagnetic generator and increase its range of influence?"
Dian Jing scratched her head and explained, "From the battle video of the Humpback Whale, the large electromagnetic generator system we installed on the top of the deck was very effective."
"Within two nautical miles, the electronic guidance system of all missiles was burned, turning them into burning sticks that could only fly in a straight line."
"When they approached the frigate, the powerful electromagnetic waves could also destroy all the electronic equipment on the frigate."
Ye Qing thought for a moment.
The electromagnetic generator idea was feasible.
But from the previous battle video, he could see the obvious shortcomings of this weapon.
It could only cause damage to electronic equipment. A distance of two nautical miles was just the time it took for a missile to yawn. Even if the internal electronic guidance system was destroyed during the final acceleration phase, it could still rely on its terrifying speed and kinetic energy, as well as hundreds of kilograms of explosives, to cause great damage to the Humpback Whale.
In fact, the fact that the Humpback Whale was able to survive this battle was largely due to luck.
The commander of this operation may have greatly underestimated their opponent, the Humpback Whale, due to the asymmetry of intelligence.
If they had carried heavy supersonic missiles and attacked the Humpback Whale at Mach 2 to Mach 3, it would have been impossible for it to survive.
Therefore, electromagnetic weapons could only be used as an auxiliary means of attack. Ye Qing needed a weapon that could attack warships from dozens of nautical miles away, or even hundreds of nautical miles away.
After listening to Ye Qing's explanation, Dian Jing was slightly disappointed for a moment, but then her eyes lit up.
"Boss, do you remember the first few torpedoes released by the frigate in the battle video?"
"The Humpback Whale used its super high speed to dodge the torpedoes, and then used its body of tens of thousands of tons to crush the frigate into a discus."
"Otherwise, we can specially make a few torpedoes, a type of torpedo that can be used repeatedly. The enemy's warship won't be able to outrun the humpback whale's speed of 130 knots."
Dian Jing also learned from the Master Craftsman and used the electronic map as a drawing board. She quickly outlined a torpedo with an armor-piercing projectile shape on it.
"We can make a few super-large torpedoes that can be invisible with sonar, but they are indestructible, the kind that weighs a thousand tons."
"Usually, these torpedoes will hover around the transport submarine. Once they encounter a local warship, they will release the torpedoes and dive to the vicinity of the target. Then, they will accelerate and crash into them, completely using kinetic energy to penetrate them."
This idea was also feasible, but the target of a thousand-ton torpedo was too big. After the first attack, the warship would easily lock onto it. Even if it could not be destroyed, it would lose the advantage of striking first.
"We can make it very small. If the volume is not enough, we can make up for it with quantity."
Dian Jing naturally thought of this. "We can make ten hundred-ton torpedoes. Anyway, our torpedoes can be reused. If the first attack doesn't work, we can launch a second attack."
Ye Qing looked at the sketch drawn by Dian Jing. "A hundred-ton torpedo? There is no space for us to install nuclear power equipment."
"We can use plasma batteries or energy modules. Usually, it will hover around the transport submarine and rely on the external cable to charge. It will be released when it detects the enemy. "
"A hundred-ton torpedo is still too big."
Dian Jing said excitedly, "Then continue to shrink it. In theory, with our technology, we can make a reusable torpedo of at least one ton. But then, the kinetic energy of the impact will not be enough, and the gap caused by the impact will be easily repaired by them. "
Ye Qing was really impressed by Dian Jing's innovative ideas in war weapons. "Can you not always focus on this kind of untechnological kinetic damage?"
Ye Qing admitted that this kind of reusable torpedo was very creative.
Think about it. When the transport submarine was sneaking in the endless sea, there were a few torpedoes floating around the transport submarine to accompany it and escort the submarine.
If the cost was not considered, the strongest alloy was used to make the shell of these torpedoes.
These torpedoes could completely penetrate a warship and then circle back to launch a second attack on the warship.
A very cool idea.
They were like the magic metal balls that hovered around the transport submarine. They could block all physical attacks for the transport submarine and destroy all enemies.
The only drawback was that these torpedoes were large enough. Otherwise, they would not have enough kinetic energy to penetrate the warship.
Dian Jing was immediately unhappy when Ye Qing ridiculed her for only using untechnological kinetic damage ideas.
She snorted and said, "Boss, if you have too much money to spend, then use the amorphous metal shell."
"The amorphous metal can change into any shape. When it hits, it can turn into a sharp blade and cut the hull of the ship."
Ye Qing blushed a little at Dian Jing's words.
Ye Qing sometimes boasted in front of Dian Jing that he was the richest male on the planet. Perhaps the girls who had a crush on him could line up from the Monster Industries Building to the Dragon Creek Beach factory.
But using amorphous metal to make torpedoes …
To be honest, even if it was only a one ton torpedo, Ye Qing still couldn't afford it.
Wait a minute.
"Why should I make a one-ton torpedo?" Ye Qing suddenly had an idea. He stood up and said excitedly, "If it's using amorphous metal, then it's also possible to make a small thing that weighs dozens of kilograms."
