Chapter 349 Tasteless Helicopter

The helicopter took off perfectly under the control of the pilot and carried out aerial strikes against ground targets. The effect looked very good.

"Papa papa!" Seeing this perfect demonstration, everyone around except the dwarves applauded involuntarily.

"Thank you! Thank you everyone. This honor is achieved through the hard work of the players." Sachs thanked while enjoying applause from the side.

"Lem, how many helicopters do you dwarves have now that can directly participate in the war?" Zhang Hao's cold words suddenly silenced the surrounding area.

"There are more than five hundred aircraft in all major cities and in stock, and now it is said that there are thirty finished products every day." Lem replied seriously.

"Then do you think there is any difference between the helicopter we made and the original version?" Zhang Hao asked again.

"Let me see? There is no difference except that it is a little bigger. But after all, your human body is much bigger than ours. It is normal for this plane to be bigger. As for the combat effectiveness, it is basically the same, but the target of your country's helicopter is too big. , definitely not as flexible as us." Lime faced Zhang Hao's questions in a matter-of-fact manner, without any intention of complimenting him.

"Dean Sachs? What do you think?" Zhang Hao turned around and asked Sachs, who was a little trembling at the side.

"Your Highness...Your Highness, we still have room for improvement."

"Oh? Tell me about it?"

"Er... that, it's possible to cut down the armor on combat helicopters to carry bombs too... and... and..."

"Stop, Sachs, although the successful demonstration of the helicopter today will definitely be recorded in the annals of the empire, but it is not enough!" looked around and continued.

"The drawings sent are mature and complete. If you can't fly after assembling according to the instructions, what use does the empire want you for? Is your applause for the helicopter or the dwarves?" Zhang Hao said as he strode towards the landing. Next to the coming helicopter.

"Two rotors can carry a dwarf helicopter, and four can carry a human helicopter, so why didn't you think about turning them into a big one?"

"Then...then Your Highness? Where should we put it into one big one?" Someone in the crowd raised his hand and asked.

"The half-enclosed one can be changed to a fully-enclosed one, and put it on the top of the plane," Zhang Hao said, grabbing the notebook in Sachs' hand and drawing a conceptual sketch of a modern helicopter on it. "Look, build according to this rough outline."

"Your Highness! Is the back here empty?" After Zhang Hao drew the sketch, everyone immediately gathered around, and Lime immediately asked the question.

"Yes, all the surrounding structures are not necessarily solid, and one more person can be seated in the back. If the width is increased, it is not a problem to seat four people in one plane!" Zhang Hao patiently explained.

"That's right! If you're alone in the back, you can shoot with long-range weapons! Or drop bombs!!" Sachs widened his eyes and thought about the role of the back row.

"Sachs, you have a good idea, but this is a combat helicopter! If the back row is empty, you can add another hell blast cannon! If you add the front, then this helicopter will have two hell blast cannons!"

"But Your Highness, wouldn't we only be able to fight on one side in that case? Moreover, it is easy to cause losses of rear row personnel due to enemy attacks in the air. At that time, wouldn't there be no one to operate the second blast cannon?" After all, Lem is Engineers with a lot of practical experience asked sharp questions, while the Empire's engineers were all confused.

"Lem, compared to flying creatures, how's the battle damage of your helicopter?" Zhang Hao asked with a smile.

Lem thought for a while and said, "Even vampire bats can cause various obstacles and losses to the pilot and rotor. Therefore, in terms of air-to-air combat damage, the helicopter's combat damage is usually much higher than that of the enemy. If you look at the specific value, it will also be scored by the enemy in the air." What is."

"The ghost of the vampire."

"Three to one, three combat helicopters for one sky ghost." Although Lem is unwilling to admit it, this is the fact. Otherwise, why do we always hear about vampires invading dwarves' territory but rarely hear about dwarves invading vampires? Just because of vampires' The air force is too powerful, and it can come and go as it pleases, and there is no effective hostile method at all.

"So!" Zhang Hao paused and asked everyone to focus their attention. "You have mistaken the target of the helicopter from the beginning! The definition of a helicopter should be to fight on the ground. Whether it is a cavalry or a giant beast, as long as it is Guarantee a safe height. Who can do this to you? Against the air? How can you deal with a long-range air unit with two blast cannons? Even if the back row does not add cannons, it is very convenient and fast to quietly transport supplies, personnel or the wounded. ? It’s a joke to go head-to-head with melee and long-range combat. Which helicopter can be as flexible as natural wings?! So, Sachs! Make me a new helicopter according to the idea I gave you! I want that kind of helicopter The enemy infantry will directly feel despair when they see the helicopter! It is not a product of this kind of imitation!"

Zhang Hao's remarks made everyone present feel dizzy. The reason why helicopters have a high status is because they allow races that cannot fly to have more possibilities. However, with current technology, we cannot fight against those who are born to be free in the air. The flying race is really unreliable, even though now because of Zhang Ha's new concept, everyone has no time to design a real fighter jet.

"Then...then...the enemy's air force?" Sachs asked subconsciously.

"The pegasus of Bretonnia, the dragon of Athel Loren, the horned eagle, the vampire's celestial ghost, the bat, the zombie dragon, heh, do we still lack air power?" Zhang Hao stuffed the small book into Sachs's arms confidently replied.

"Then why do we still have to work hard to make these things?" A word came from the crowd, which immediately brought everyone back to their senses and looked at Zhang Hao.

"If you want to do big things! Then you must have a big picture! We can't fly after all, and no one can change this situation. Now we can't defeat those flying monsters, what about the future? Don't we have the strength to fight yet? Sachs, Do you know what I was most angry about just now?"

"Please, Your Highness, please clarify."

"How long have the dwarf helicopters been developed? But in addition to their improvements in function and materials, Mr. Lem, please forgive me for not disparaging the nobles... The overall structure is still the same as 100 years ago, but you hold it The blueprints don’t want to upgrade or perfect them, but just create a new one according to the original appearance. So what’s the use of all the effort I put into getting these blueprints? Even if what you gave me today is something that’s still on the blueprints I would feel extremely gratified. After all, this thing cannot be perfectly manufactured overnight, but as the chief engineer of the empire, you are not willing to think more about how the empire can trust you to put all the resources of the entire continent into your hands. superior!"

"Yes... yes... His Highness taught you a lesson..." Sachs replied in shame. He actually just wanted to produce helicopters as soon as possible and distribute them to the army. He didn't expect that he would create such a helicopter for someone who didn't understand war and battlefield conditions. It's a tasteless thing. The imperial helicopter is bulky, not as flexible as the dwarves, and it is not as powerful as the dwarves (the sulfur machine used by the dwarves is transformed from an organ gun, which is more powerful than a blast gun). It is a target when it is sent to the battlefield. Now it is built One is nothing, and when tens of thousands are produced, it will really become a hugely expensive vase. It is better to build a few more cannons if you have this time and energy.
