The mechanical craze in Marvel

Locke Technology's Hive Base welcomed a group of visitors.

These are all buyers who intend to view Lockheed Martin's military products.

Nolan gave him a warm welcome.

"I'm sorry, this place is still in its early stages, and many things haven't been built yet."

Nolan began to speak.

The beehive is now just an empty shell.

In many places, it's just a preliminary reinforced concrete structure.

No one cared.

Leading the way was Major General Hagrid.

He opened his mouth and said:

"For the military, our biggest concern is always quality."

Because it concerns the lives of our soldiers.

Testing conventional weapons is straightforward.

Judging from everyone's expressions, Nolan knew they were very satisfied.

Then comes the crucial part.

The SAR-1 combat robot, and the still imperfect T-800.

The rear admiral asked:

"Mr. Locke, the SAR-1 combat robot is the product our army is most looking forward to. Its performance is enough to make us excited."

But how do you plan to conduct the test?

Nolan smiled and said:

"The technology of the SAR-1 combat robot is already very advanced. As for the testing method, I have two proposals."

The first test could be conducted by Lockheed Martin; the second could be conducted by the military through field testing.

Hearing the second half of the sentence.

The naval admiral smiled.

"Then let's do it."

As they were speaking, a group of soldiers stepped forward.

"These are the army's best soldiers. We need to determine the actual effectiveness of your SAR-1 combat robots."

And regarding the T-800 you mentioned, we'd like to test it if possible.

"No problem at all."

Nolan was smiling broadly.

Chapter 28 SAR-1's Perfect Performance

Everyone had high expectations for this test.

In particular, Major General Hagrid of the Army.

He knew very well that if the SAR-1 combat robot could really play a significant role...

It is enough to change the course of future wars.

The current military still operates on a war model of simultaneous human and tank warfare.

However, in small-scale battles, the synchronized operation of tanks and human combat becomes difficult.

Because tanks are not maneuverable enough.

The SAR-1 combat robot is not large in size.

Sufficient flexibility.

And the price is much lower.

Most importantly, it can reduce troop casualties.

The average equipment value for an infantryman is around 20,000 US dollars.

However, the death benefits amount to hundreds of thousands.

Moreover, this doesn't even include the time and resources required to train a single soldier.

Therefore, the price of $80 seems very high to the military.

However, after considering all factors, the price is perfectly acceptable.

Inside the test site.

In order to better utilize the performance of the SAR-1 combat robot.

The test site was chosen to be urban warfare terrain.

The experiment involved an infantry squad fighting against 10 SAR-1 combat robots.

All the soldiers were full of confidence.

They were all true elites, specially brought by the general.

Not to mention these SAR-1 combat robots.

Their real goal, however, is to counter the T-800.

Because in their hands, they not only have ordinary weapons, but also heavy firepower, including RPGs.

Of course……

The SAR-1 combat robot can only use blank rounds.

General Hagrid glanced at the testing ground and smiled:

"How long do you think these SAR-1 combat robots can hold out?"

Everyone wore a smile.

"With this setup, I think the battle will be over in less than ten minutes."

"If the SAR-1 combat robot really has the performance that Mr. Locke described."

It might inflict 30% casualties on this squad.

Clearly, no one had high hopes for the SAR-1 combat robot squad.

"Mr. Nolan, what do you think?"

"It was the rear admiral from the Navy who asked."

Nolan laughed:

"I also think the battle can be resolved within ten minutes."

Although these soldiers are all excellent.

But they still can't deal with the SAR-1 combat robot.

Hear this.

Everyone burst into laughter.

Nolan Locke was, after all, a naive and inexperienced young man.

If it's being manipulated, then so be it.

According to Nolan Locke.

This time, the SAR-1 combat robots all use autonomous programs.

Nolan did not argue.

They simply don't understand how powerful these combat robots can be in small-scale battles.

The battle begins.

The large and small squads advanced in a fan shape.

Everyone looked wary.

They are confident because they have the ability.

But they will never let their guard down.

Suddenly, a dense barrage of fire appeared.

Everyone was instantly horrified.

They didn't even have time to react.

Two people were 'killed' under the barrage of fire.

Fortunately, the others had already taken evasive action and taken cover under obstacles.

"Counterattack! Where's the RPG?!"

The captain roared.

He hadn't expected such a huge mistake to occur at the start of the battle.

In the stands, Nolan's lips curled into a smile.

General Hagrid's expression was not good.

"These idiots actually got ambushed by a bunch of robots."

He cursed a couple of times, but didn't really care.

The soldiers lacked sufficient understanding of these combat robots.

It's normal to have a bad start.
