Building a new thermonuclear engine and a new high-energy battery from scratch using all the equipment and materials in Area 51, Ingram felt that it was not that easy. He was not Law. Even if he was given some tools, he could still make these things in a few days. That guy deserved to be ordered around by Xiao Ran like a cow. After all, a capable person should have more work to do.
In short, the most important problem for Ingram was the materials. Building an engine did not require materials as strong as armor. At the very least, it needed to have a high heat resistance property. The energy aspect of this world was almost a blank, and there was not much difference in terms of materials.
Fortunately, Ingram had experience in building a Toronim engine. He had also gone through systematic learning in the Fleet World. Not only him, but Uzzes, Bai Hechou, and Kiliam, who were obviously qualified as technicians, had also received Law's experience before entering the mission world. In addition, there were also detailed technical reserves in their personal computers. It was not difficult to replicate the engine. It was just that the time required was slightly different from what Ingram had expected.
Ingram had nothing to complain about. He just sighed in front of Amro. "I really didn't expect that after decades of war, the development of weapon technology, material technology, and energy technology has not improved much at all. There's still a big gap in terms of basic industry."
"It's not something that can be done in a short period of time. That will also greatly delay the construction of our new engine."
As a pilot and the son of a technician who could build a Gundam, Amro had a good understanding of technology and had also learned about it systematically. He was barely at the level of an ordinary technician. At this time, as one of the researchers of this project, he could only nod in agreement when he heard Ingram's words.
Amro said, "But fortunately, the industrial capacity has basically met all the requirements we need to build a new engine. At least we can build something like a combat engine. Some of the industrial equipment can be used in common. With our current level, it should not be a problem to build a B-class engine. At most, it will just waste some time."
"Time. The thing we can't be sure about now is time. Not to mention the energy system, there are other problems that will really delay us for about a month or so." Ingram shook his head. "But I have to say that in terms of some gadgets, this world has done very well. For example, the entire system of the combat suit, including the retinal projection screen and the motion and thought sensing technology. These technologies can't directly improve combat power, but the combat engine needs these things to operate. I really don't know who invented these strange things."
"Body memory control, body indirect thinking control, especially the existence of the latter is simply going down the wrong path. It won't be too much of a problem for an expert, but for us, it has become a restriction. For a novice, a random thought and the fear of the battlefield will affect the body. The final result is probably that the body can't even move. The eight-minute life and death line is probably because of this strange operation method. A combat weapon that can only exist for eight minutes, hehe."
Amro also suddenly smiled. "The operation method is only suitable for ordinary experts. Why do I suddenly feel that whether it's the BETA of this world or these developed weapons, they are full of deep malice towards the humans of this world. It's as if something is deliberately guiding everything in a certain direction. In the end, they will either be destroyed or wait for the hero to save them."
Ingram was also stunned when he heard Amro's words. After pondering for a moment, he shook his head and smiled. "I guess this world is like what you said, but it's completely different since we came here."
"In short, we've wasted a lot of time. Everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared. Once the materials come off the production line, I'll leave the manufacturing of the body parts to you. I'll preside over the production of new materials and energy. In two months, the body must be built in two months at most."
Amro nodded. Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "By the way, Siman contacted me today and told me that a new joint project has been officially launched with the Far East. It seems to be called the XFJ project. It's a very important project, but the location of this project is Uzzes."
"But the body and weapons produced by the project will be sent by us as the main testers. The Yukon base in Uzzes is only responsible for assisting and acting as the coordinator of the project test. They won't be able to get in touch with the core of this project. Do you think we should let Cain or Siman fight for this position?"
"The cooperation between the United States and the Far East in the Yukon base?" Ingram thought for a moment and finally shook his head. "Let's communicate with Bai Hechou and Uzzes first. After all, that's Yukon base."
Amro nodded and stopped talking. No one else was present during the entire conversation between the two. They were in Ingram's office. Previously, it was confirmed that there were surveillance cameras in this office, but after Ingram entered the office for the first time and found all the surveillance cameras in the office in front of the leader of District 51, District 51 didn't do anything unnecessary. Therefore, no matter what the two said in this office, it wouldn't spread out.
The new body project thus began. Two months to produce the new body was just Ingram's conservative estimate. Optimistically, it would take at most one and a half months to complete the project. The reason it was so fast was that all the technology was ready-made. As long as Ingram took the lead and slowly brought out the data bit by bit, whether it was the materials or the technology, they could be solved in an instant. As for whether the American technicians understood the data or not, it was none of Ingram's business. Ingram only wanted the technicians to do what he asked them to do well.
After Ingram, Bai Hechou, Uzzes, and Kiliam communicated, they learned that the XFJ project wasn't the only project in the Yukon base. The Soviet Union had also been testing an independent project that seemed to be in a semi-abandoned state. Even Kiliam didn't know the specific information, which piqued Uzzes' interest.
Bai Hechou also had some understanding of this project. First, he sent everyone a copy of the information about the weapons and the body. After that, he expressed that he wasn't interested and ended the video call.
On the other hand, Uzzes said that the main tester of the XFJ project was personally selected by the American side. Even if he wanted to put someone in, he could only put a small team commander to cooperate with them. The bored Tetsuya was a suitable choice. If he wanted to get the position of the main tester, he could either directly kill the tester on the other side or directly control the tester, or he could only let Ingram handle it himself.
But no matter who it was, after seeing the information of this project, they didn't think that the XFJ project would affect their current plans. The body was trash and the weapons were barely useful, so it wasn't worth their attention. However, some of the black-bellied guys noticed something when the project officially started, which happened to be the time when the main mission was completed. After all, it was a sensitive time.
In the end, Uzzes said that it was better to let Ingram send someone to be the main tester. Killing the main tester was easy, but it would bring unnecessary trouble. It wasn't impossible to control the tester, but Uzzes, Kiliam, and Ingram all felt that it was better to let one of their own go. However, Uzzes was now short of manpower to control the Yukon base, so Ingram could only send someone with nothing to do.
