Otherworld Girl Development Guide

"Shangqiu is our most important city and cannot be lost! Therefore, the first thing we must do is strengthen the military strength of the Xirang base and completely fortify it."

"That's precisely why we sent the 'national treasure' there."

Turning the Xirang base into a fortress would require a lot of manpower and resources, and the long sea voyage would be too time-consuming. It would be better to open the gate on the spot and directly reinforce the Xirang base.

A large number of fixed 300mm anti-submarine rocket launchers are deployed along the shore...

The system features a 50mm point-defense electromagnetic railgun, an optimized 1130 Shield system with improved ammunition feeding, a 30mm ultraviolet laser point defense system, and HQ-9 and HHQ-10 missiles with upgraded warheads...

It can be said that the Xirang base has been completely fortified. After all, once the Xirang base falls, Shangqiu will face danger directly, which is unacceptable no matter what!

"Accelerate the deployment of sixth-generation fighter jets to ensure our absolute air superiority..."

In terms of maneuverability alone, the Starfish Civilization could perform acute-angle maneuvers, and its subsonic aircraft were more maneuverable than human third-generation fighter jets. Moreover, its weapon systems were more threatening than the missiles of third-generation aircraft.

After all, missiles can be interfered with using ECM, thermal decoys, evasive maneuvers, etc., but laser weapons cannot be interfered with; attacks at the speed of light cannot be dodged.

Putting everything else aside, these starfish-shaped aircraft crashed into the territory of a certain world superpower and were simply wreaking havoc!

All the planes that haven't crashed will be turned into turkeys.

Regarding air superiority, we currently have two directions...

At this point, the big shot pressed the remote control, and two directions of the future airplane appeared on the LED screen.

"The high-speed unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) of the wingman program, the J8 UAV, is made using modern materials. After being equipped with a thermonuclear turbine engine, it has a simple structure and is robust and durable..."

...The cost is approximately 1500 WRMB per unit. With mass production, the cost can be further reduced, making it ideal for quality warfare...

"...The other is the Qingluan UAV, which serves as a battlefield information node. Advanced AI allows them to autonomously analyze the battlefield situation, identify friend or foe, operate fully autonomously, and issue commands to wingmen."

Until the issue of pilots' overload resistance is resolved, we can only temporarily use this high-low mix of drones. Even if there are losses, we won't feel too bad, since the loss is only "resources" and not irreplaceable lives.

While the current Qingluan carrier-based aircraft are adequate, their payload capacity is somewhat insufficient, preventing them from achieving absolute air superiority. Experts are already considering equipping the aircraft with a vertical launch system (VLS) to carry external missile modules...

The fighter jets, like Aegis-equipped ships, can launch missiles in a saturation attack, shooting down incoming targets one by one.

The ability to mount a vertical launch system is due not only to the use of new materials in the airframe, but also to the fact that the photonic chips made from fractal silicon are sufficient to support complex calculations.

With the development of AI technology and the increasing sophistication of drones, humans are gradually withdrawing from the fierce front-line battles and instead focusing on logistics and command.

"A typhoon-level renovation would take six months..."

In the battle against the starfish, in addition to air power, the power of the sea cannot be ignored. Many important mineral deposits are located on the seabed, so control of the deep sea is also very important.

"...Since we are not confronting submarines from other countries, the requirement for stealth is not very high; as long as it does not affect our own sonar system, it will suffice..."

"...The ballistic missile launchers on the Typhoon-class deck will be upgraded to vertical torpedo launch systems, capable of launching 40 650mm torpedoes within 30 seconds; a similar vertical torpedo launch system will also be installed at the bottom..."

...the torpedo tubes at the front will also be modified, with a new high-speed loading system installed, and the torpedo tubes at the rear will be reinstalled...

In short, the goal is to transform the Typhoon-class ships into underwater "arsenal ships," capable of delivering a direct torpedo kill with a single salvo.

After discussing the military matters, the meeting moved on to discussing the next steps, such as etiquette.

How should we communicate with the other party?

This gave the bigwigs present a bit of a headache. After all, they are different species, and they are deep-sea creatures. Their communication with each other is not the same as that of humans, because they do not have vocal organs like those of orcas and dolphins.

Given the environment of the deep sea, the communication methods between individual demons are likely to include luminescence or contact-based information exchange...

This would exponentially increase the difficulty of contact between the two parties, and the seafood itself is hardly a friendly gesture.

"We've finalized our deal with the U.S. military; they're willing to sell us their decommissioned Typhoon-class aircraft, but the U.S. is expressing concern."

"It's okay, we can come up with a deep-sea development plan to fool them at the airshow."

We buy typhoons for deep-sea development. Whether you, the US, believe it or not, I, the Chinese, believe it.

"In short, we must continue to strengthen our naval capabilities and ensure that our interests in the near seas are not compromised."

Chapter 367 The US's Dream of a Space Carrier

Xirang Base.

The starfish inside the spacecraft has been dissected, and its internal organs and viscera have been packed into containers for preservation, facilitating more detailed research on the starfish in the future.

After studying the starfish, the next step is to study the "Demon's" aircraft, a weapon capable of making sharp-angle turns and flying at subsonic speeds.

After the egg-shaped container was removed, only the anti-gravity engine, energy device, avionics system, and laser emitter remained inside the aircraft, along with some sub-modules whose purpose was unknown.

"Master, what is this?"

A researcher carefully picked up a thin thread with tweezers. This thread was somewhat similar to optical fiber, but also different from it.

"It should be an information transmission medium used to send the pilot's commands to the aircraft. If I'm not mistaken, the raw material for this information transmission medium should be grating stone..."

The natural nanoscale photolithography grooves of grating stone make it the best carrier for optical communication. From this point of view alone, the avionics system of the Starfish Civilization is far superior to that of third-generation fighters, and even more advanced than the J-10 which has replaced its fiber optics.

"So, does this mean Haixing might be going to try and steal our mining rights?"

This made the researchers frown. The exact amount of grating stone reserves was still unclear, but... it couldn't be too much. As each stone was used, the reserves would dwindle, and this alone created a deep conflict of interest between the two sides.

“Take a look at their weapon systems.”

With the help of demolition crews, researchers removed the starfish spacecraft's weapon systems from its fuselage.

The design of the entire weapon system is not too difficult to understand. It concentrates the energy of the aircraft and shoots it out to form a high-energy laser, which inflicts burning damage on the target.

At the front end of the laser weapon, there is a diamond-shaped grating stone. It is through the grating stone that the laser beam is focused and emitted.

"The laser weapons on the aircraft are not powerful enough, but we have reason to suspect that the Starfish Civilization possesses more powerful laser emitters capable of effectively damaging warships..."

At this point, the researchers became somewhat puzzled. In the deep-sea environment, the efficiency of laser weapons is not very promising. After all, the refractive effect and heat absorption properties of seawater make lasers virtually harmless underwater.

Generally speaking, civilized weapons are adapted to their living environment; lasers are not suitable for underwater use, but are more suitable for space.

"Alright, next we'll remove the spacecraft's power unit..."

Energy source is the foundation of everything; without energy, an aircraft is just a lump of iron.

Soon, the staff carefully removed the aircraft's power unit. Identifying the power unit was simple: just follow the weapon's wiring to find the power system.

"This thing..."

The researchers stared at the energy device of the starfish civilization, their brows furrowing slightly, because the starfish civilization also used force!

--------------------------------------

The sun rises as usual, and in this hopeful country, more and more safe injection centers are being established, making countless addicts cheer.

Because they have a new free purchase zone to explore!

Every day, groups of zero-yuan shoppers enter the activity area to make purchases. The only price they have to pay is a certain "head tax" to the tax bureau.

"My... Mr. Trump, according to our latest intelligence, the Rabbit has purchased three decommissioned Typhoon-class submarines from the Bear, claiming that they will be modified to carry underwater unmanned vehicles for deep-sea exploration..." the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said softly.

"Do you believe it?" Trump leaned back tactically, straightened his black tie, and asked with a stern face.

"Of course, torpedoes are also a type of unmanned underwater vehicle..."

"Instead of that, we should pay attention to the other side of the ocean. It's almost October..." Trump said with some melancholy.

His approval rating has dropped somewhat recently. After all, China on the other side of the ocean has already developed space carriers and kilometer-level space stations. Where does that leave the face of the United States, the world's leading power?

In order to gain higher approval ratings, Trump had to persuade Congress to approve more funding and more military spending to make the United States great again!

First, there's a large aerospace platform, comparable to China's Pengkun. Based on the pie-in-the-sky data drawn up by the designers, and after some appropriate modifications, they successfully convinced the congressmen to approve the development of a $20 billion airborne carrier for the US.

With a wingspan of 900 meters and using the latest materials from the US laboratories, it can be said that the US has spared no expense in order to make the US great again and regain its position as the mayor!

With a wingspan of 963 meters, it's not that the US didn't want to build it larger, but even with humane adjustments to the material specifications, the material strength has already reached its limit, making it incomparable to the Chinese model. In fact, it's arguably half the size of the Chinese model, and its width and height are also only half that of the Pengkun-1...

However! In the words of the US, this is a victory for democracy; the reason for not building one the same size as the Pengkun-1 is to reduce "carbon emissions"...

Similarly, this massive ship also possesses various conventional weapons, VOL launch modules, close-in weapon systems, and other weapon modules... The only regret is that the US's space carrier still burns fossil fuels.

With 24 engines fully fueled, the US air-to-air carrier can fly for three days. Then, six KCY tanker aircraft will be needed to refuel it so that it can continue to fly in the sky.

Once fully fueled, the US's space carrier can function like an aircraft carrier, allowing the F-35 to take off and land on its 260-meter-long flight deck.

The only downside is that the radar has to be turned off when refueling, otherwise it might turn the refueling pump into a fireball.

Looking at the PowerPoint presentation showcasing the arrogance of the US, Trump nodded in satisfaction. Performance was not important; as long as the BBC and CNN launched a full-scale propaganda offensive, it would be the most advanced space carrier on Earth!

Meanwhile, the massive Pengkun II is flying inland because the airshow will be held in a month. After completing its flight tests, Pengkun II needs to undergo maintenance and have its large thermonuclear engines replaced to extend its flight endurance to infinity.

In just one month, it will be China's defense airshow. This year's airshow will showcase a lot of new equipment, from individual weapons and vehicles to aircraft, ships, and China's future research vessels. It can be said that China is preparing to make a big splash at this year's airshow.

Chapter 368 "Airshow" (4000 words)

With the crisp autumn air, it's the season for defense air shows once again.

The International Aviation & Aerospace Exhibition is an international professional aviation and aerospace exhibition... However, it has gradually transformed from an airshow into a defense exhibition, and the exhibits are no longer just aircraft, but also include other items...

Compared to last year, this year's airshow has a much larger number of attendees. After all, last year China quietly pulled off a major surprise, so who knows what they'll come up with this year!

Military enthusiasts (and big pig trotters) from all over the country flocked to the airshow venue.

Various social media platforms are discussing whether a new waifu will appear this year... such as an improved version of the Blue Bird. As for Princess 20, few people are paying attention to her anymore, since the Black Ribbon is now outdated.

On a bright and sunny morning, the Zhuhai Airshow opened, still running from October 1st to October 3rd, from 09:00 to 17:00 daily...

Similarly, security checks are more stringent than in previous years, as there are a lot more "foreign friends" participating in the exhibition this year, and the organizers have had to implement crowd control measures.

?: This is about seed oil...

?: Get lost! This isn't the White House Open Day.

On the morning of the airshow, visitors entered the airshow venue after passing through security checks.

"Brothers, I've arrived. I have to say, the crowds this year... are truly extraordinary!"

The content creator on Bilibili's military section was so crowded that he almost lost his grip on his phone. There were just people everywhere. If the organizers hadn't made dynamic adjustments, he probably wouldn't have been able to see the exhibition at all, just people.

"Compared to last year, this year's airshow has more venues, and it's even a bit surreal..."

The UP stopped at the static model display area, looking at the static model on the stand with some confusion. It was an ordinary-looking airplane model, and you could see the shadow of the Bluebird on it. However, unlike the Bluebird, there were two strange triangular devices in front of the fuselage... The UP glanced down at the description and stopped thinking.

"Sixth generation, aerospace fighter...gravity field drive? Thermonuclear turbine engine?"

"Atmospheric range: ∞..."

UP scratched his head, this was too surreal: "Brothers, shall we go... huh?"
