Metal Ranger of the Endless Plane - Chapter 924
Of course, since it is an unmanned aerial vehicle designed from the ground up, this time the electromagnetic gun can be directly embedded in the body instead of using the pod form.
Moreover, because the technical source of this type of electromagnetic gun is the individual coil gun that Lu Yuan bought from Los Santos Meri Weather, its energy supply device has more or less the shadow of light analysis technology.
This also means that the light analysis energy device that powers the suspension engine can also provide power to the electromagnetic gun.
In this way, Luyuan only needs to increase its capacity, and does not need to consider adding a third set of energy supply systems.
In short, in the end, an air combat drone that can only be used on the optical plane. At least half of the core technology of the whole body is an air combat drone that specializes in hunting flying biological weapons. It is used by Lu Yuan at the lowest possible cost. Made it out.
Even so, the cost of building such a UAV can be at least six main battle tanks or four self-propelled artillery.
If you add a launch vehicle that also uses black technology, the cost of the complete set will have to increase by about 50%.
This really shows that it is much harder to let something go to the sky than to let it run around on its own.
Compared with air combat drones, there is not much to say about the two types of reconnaissance aircraft.
It is nothing more than a faster fixed-wing reconnaissance aircraft, a higher flying altitude, and it is more inclined to conduct a large-scale search and reconnaissance.
This positioning is closer to the early warning aircraft of modern warfare, but its size is smaller than that of the electronic reconnaissance aircraft, so the relevant equipment actually carried is far from comparable to the real early warning aircraft.
Of course, because the current battlefield is not yet a “complex electromagnetic environment,” Lu Yuan has little demand for real early warning aircraft.
Worst of all, he also has a giant dragon drone, coupled with the system’s fee-based services, which can barely act as an airborne early warning control plane.
Compared with the fixed-wing reconnaissance aircraft with long-distance and large range but low reconnaissance accuracy, the rotary wing reconnaissance aircraft, that is, the reconnaissance drone, is aimed at the main target, such as the chameleon unit that ambushed Eliza last time.
Its combat methods and various methods used are similar to shipborne anti-submarine helicopters.
One thing is that because of the systematic payment services, Lu Yuan’s involvement in modern electronic warfare is far less extensive and profound than his knowledge of all types of land warfare weapons.
If he acts alone and carries the system with him anyway, this so-called shortcoming will not have any impact.
But when it comes to command this large-scale tactical group that has almost developed to the brigade level, the shortcomings in this area are more clearly highlighted.
Fortunately, the enemy he was dealing with was not the army of a certain modern country, but just a group of lizard people “planted” by aliens using magic-like means.
No matter how poor his electronic warfare level is, it is more than enough to bully some great people from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age transition, and the system is at most the primitive people of the slavery tribal alliance.
Especially when the masters of primitive slave owners, the Aschalotars, did not show off their housekeeping skills to help, but only sent a Loki clone to be the battle mage.
Of course, Loki, the **** of deceit, has a unique natural advantage in battle magic such as clairvoyance and wind ears, and can smooth out some technical shortcomings for these primitive lizardmen legions.
Although only a small part of his so-called battle magic comes from the reappearance of the light analysis technology by the green light devils, most of them, in Lu Yuan’s view, are mostly directly learned from the inherent magic system of the green lizards.
Because of this, he is also making the mistake Lu Yuan made, which is the legendary path dependence.
Because the existing magic is good enough, no new abilities are being developed.
Just as Lu Yuan relied on the system’s paid services, which delayed the research and upgrade of electronic warfare methods.
As a result, although the two sides seem to have little difference in the strength of reconnaissance capabilities, Lu Yuan has unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, and the Lizardmen Legion has magic, but Lu Yuan’s reconnaissance aircraft has been continuously improved during the war, and Loki is cloned. , But unable to separate from the body to research a new type of battle magic.
As a result, despite the fact that the gap between the frontal combat capabilities of the two sides is constantly widening, it is just that from a reconnaissance point of view, Lu Yuan’s advantage is also rapidly expanding.
So, after waiting for the drone launch vehicle unit led by Yanzi to join the frontline battlefield, it took less than two months. After more than ten upgrades, Lu Yuan finally successfully penetrated the entire Mesa Plateau.
At this point, crossing the southern end of the Mesa Plateau, crossing the line of the volcano called Orisaba, which was in the formation and active period, Lu Yuan finally saw the long-awaited, relatively low and flat terrain, Yucatan peninsula.
However, at this time there is still a long way to go to the peninsula in the true geographical sense, but in terms of topography and geomorphology, the “plain” in front of him belongs to the later generations of Veracruz. Compared with the Mesa Plateau, it is obviously Closer to the peninsula.
It used to be the birthplace of the oldest civilization in Central America, because it is the most suitable environment for human living nearby.
This means that lizard people who have four limbs and walk upright like humans are also suitable for large-scale reproduction in this area.
And when the road crossed the southeastern section of the Eastern Madre Mountains where the Orizaba volcano is located, and entered the “plain” of Veracruz, what you see is an endless sea of lizards.
“So that’s the case!” Lu Yuan couldn’t help but sighed, “Okay, no wonder we were allowed to make a fuss on the Mesa Plateau, that Evelyn Rocky was so calm, just to take reinforcements.”
“Hehe, it turns out that we are letting us entangle with those cannon fodder. Fortunately, you can concentrate on exploding troops in the base camp?”
“I don’t believe it, the entire Yucatan Peninsula is really filled with the Lizardmen Legion by you?”
Having said that, looking at this endless plain full of lizardmen legions, Lu Yuan still did not order a direct charge, but withdrew all the front-line ground troops back, lurking in the dense forests of the mountains and letting them fix. Wing reconnaissance plane, fly a little farther.
As a result, the results returned by the drones gave him a fluke.
Because the reconnaissance planes have been going east along the coastline, and have even flown more than 300 kilometers away from the East Madre Mountains. Later generations of roads have visited the most in Mehekou Bay, where the Kwacha Quarks is located. In the southern corner, wherever he went, there were still lizardmen legions.
Fortunately, the reconnaissance planes are not only bringing bad news.
At least, after going deep into the plains, you can find that the density of the lizardmen inside is much smaller than that on the side close to the mountains.
It seems that Evelyn Loki also knows that if the lizardmen legions are “planted” on the plains like this, even with the current climatic conditions, the ecological environment here is still not long enough to sustain it.
Once this place is eaten into a desert by the lizardmen legion, if you want to maintain such a high density of armed personnel, you will either need more logistical supplies to be transported from elsewhere, or you can only shorten the time and let them make it through. How long will I starve myself to death.
