The reaction from the outside world was very calm.
The only news in the Strait of Grete was that a US patrol ship had unfortunately sunk due to mechanical failure.
There wasn't much debate on the Internet about the theory of sinking after hitting a reef.
Because this destroyer was only a security ship, not an authentic US warship that traversed the ocean. According to the ranking, the aircraft carrier was considered to be an A-list star, and this security ship was at best an E-list star. It was also a foreign ship, so it was normal for it to sink.
There were some differing opinions about the Monster Industries' Horizontal Freighter being detained.
Some news reports said that the Horizontal Freighter had been released, and some news promised that the Horizontal Freighter was still detained in the Strait of Malacca.
The domestic news gradually calmed down, but as the parties involved, the Pentagon, who decided to keep it a secret, was already facing a great enemy. They were mobilizing the Fifth Fleet and the Guam Air Force Base to frantically search for traces of the Brown Wood in the Strait of Grete.
They suspected that the Dolphin was in the wrong position, or that when it sank with the ghost yacht, the ghost yacht's power still maintained for a period of time and took their position elsewhere.
For this reason, the Pentagon specially transferred the world's most advanced multi-beam underwater terrain scanning equipment from the country.
With the determination to find the sunken Brown Wood in any case, they expanded the search area to 200 square kilometers. This kind of underwater terrain scanning equipment was comparable to the size of the deep-sea detector. When it was turned on, it could map a 3D model of the terrain within a radius of 500 meters.
As for the result …
Only God knows.
…
In the secret laboratory, Ye Qing, the Master Craftsman, and Dian Jing sat in front of the big screen.
The shape of this super-high-speed freighter had been further optimized by the supercomputer, including the internal keel structure and the outline of the bow. Now, they had to come up with a plan to solve the problem of the speed exceeding 100 knots.
"Using the air cushion principle, the biggest problem is the energy consumption." Ye Qing pinched his chin and thought, "This high-speed freighter must have the ability to continuously sail more than 5,000 kilometers. But speed, load, and energy consumption are proportional. When the Lord's Battleship is sailing, it consumes gold coins, not fuel, so it can sail indefinitely, but high-speed freighters can't. Either fuel or electricity. "
"This needs to be tested. Humans have already tested fuel engines and steam turbines for us, but the results are not feasible. In the air cushion mode, the ship's range is only a few hundred kilometers. We can only try plasma batteries."
Dian Jing mimicked Ye Qing's actions and tilted her translucent head. "The input power of the plasma battery is fixed. The friction of the ship, its weight, and the weight of the cargo are also fixed. We can calculate the optimal number of standard plasma batteries through supercomputing. "
"Boss, if we want to use electricity as a source of energy, we have to use a motor to drive it. Traditional motors won't work, even the kind of rare earth permanent magnet motors on the Thunderbolt car. "The Master Craftsman said without thinking.
"If you want to reach a speed of 100 knots, you need to eject compressed air to the bottom of the ship to hold up the entire ship. Traditional motors must be equipped with a huge transmission structure to ensure that the main shaft of the turbine can rotate at a high speed and maintain enough thrust."
"2000KW motors, no less than five. Including the transmission structure and turbine mechanism, the weight of this power system alone is about 3,000 tons. "
"The power consumption will also be very terrible. I don't think the plasma battery can support it for 5,000 kilometers."
"Wait, boss, there seems to be no charging station for giant ships on the sea?" Dian Jing suddenly inserted a sentence.
"No?" The Master Craftsman looked at Ye Qing with strange eyes.
"…" Ye Qing suddenly clapped his forehead and forgot that the battery could not be charged at sea.
From Zhongyun City, Hua Xia, to Nigeria, Africa, a voyage of nearly 30,000 miles. A giant ship needs to be refueled many times at ports along the way. But there is no super charging station, so this super-high-speed cargo ship is likely to run for 30,000 miles in one breath.
Even if the Straits of Malacca may be blocked, it will take a detour to the high seas near Australia and sail 40,000 miles in one breath.
The problem comes back to the original point. It seems that counting and counting, it is most appropriate to use the Lord's Battleship.
But the Lord's Battleship only has a load of 1,000 tons, and it takes six days to go to Nigeria. It is better to go directly to the faster Il-76 for a few more trips. The purpose of building a high-speed cargo ship is to transport heavy industrial equipment. This is not possible in the narrow cargo hold of the Lord's Battleship.
"Boss, do you remember the [Electromagnetic Engine] drawing?" The Master Craftsman laughed. "Traditional motors don't work, we can use electromagnetic engines."
Ye Qing nodded quickly. Of course, he remembered this black technology drawing. When the Monster Factory was upgraded to the sixth stage, there was one of the four drawings. At that time, it was enough to make the Thunderbolt car with traditional motor technology.
Ye Qing is going to wait for the Thunderbolt car to fully occupy a place in the minds of consumers in the future, and then launch a high-end new energy supercar with an electromagnetic engine.
At this thought, Ye Qing remembered that there was a particularly powerful black technology at the beginning.
-Sound Absorbing Steel!
This is not the shield material used by Captain America in the science fiction movie. It is a special metal that can absorb electromagnetic waves. If it is used well, it is the nemesis of radar.
A giant ship that can be invisible in front of radar?
Before, Ye Qing was still worried about the lack of countermeasures for the Monster Industries. Now, in the blink of an eye, there is a forgotten stealth technology in front of him.
At the same time, Ye Qing thought of the [Energy Tower] that he got from the lottery when he upgraded to the sixth stage.
Thinking about it from another perspective, if the energy tower is moved to the ship, wouldn't it be a "super battery" with unlimited energy?
However, the energy tower can't leave the factory for too long. Currently, the production of plasma batteries still needs it to activate the bombardment chamber and turn the metal materials into liquid.
"We can build a reactor. The reactor drawings are not difficult to obtain. I have searched the technical drawings of the second generation reactor on the Internet. Now that human reactor technology has developed to the third generation, I think it is not difficult to build a small reactor. "After listening to Ye Qing's plan, Dian Jing smiled and squinted her eyes.
"A nuclear reactor for ships and a nuclear reactor for power stations are two different things." Ye Qing was a little stunned.
"That won't work. Boss, you take a three-dimensional camera and go to the UA aircraft carrier and take a few photos of the drawings." Dian Jing wanted to see the world in chaos. She jumped up from the chair and waved her small fist excitedly. "Aren't there many photos on the Internet that were taken by tourists when they boarded the aircraft carrier during the opening day of the UA aircraft carrier?"
"It just so happens that the UA set us up. We can also get some interest back from them."
"That makes sense."
"It just so happens that there is a uranium mine in the Soto Rainforest." The master artisan also agreed with this plan.
"…"
Ye Qing was more than stunned. It was like seeing a ghost. "Are you … crazy?"
