Chapter 104 Blue Shell

Chapter 104 Blue Shell

First of all, the technology Fu Qinghai currently has in mind is the complete design of Iron Man Mark-1 to Mark-44, because the timeline when Fu Qinghai obtained the "Tony Stark electronic soul backup" was in 2012 in the MCU. At that time, Tony Stark had not yet used models above the Mark-42, but the first draft of the corresponding design concepts was already available, including the first-generation Hulkbuster suit Mark-44.

But there is no Mark-50 nano-suit "Bleeding Edge", no second-generation Hulkbuster Mark-48, and no Mark-48 that later played in Endgame, which added Uru metal to absorb magic damage. -85 super nano battle armor.

And because it comes from Iron Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there are naturally no Model series armors in other universes that surpass the Mark series: for example, the Model-38 Anti-Phoenix Armor, and the Model-61 Anti-Celestial Armor ( Also called God-killing Armor), Model-68 Virtual Armor.

(PS: So those book friends who say that the upper limit of technology flow is low and have been thinking that the protagonist wants to learn magic should think about it carefully)

Let’s first compare the generations of Space Marine power armor in the Warhammer 40K universe with Iron Man’s Mark series armor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

First, there is the difference in cost positioning.

Although the power armor of Space Marines is very high-tech and expensive, it is still a mass-produced weapon and equipment. At the peak of the 30K Human Empire, there were two million Space Marines, and they all Equip power armor.

Iron Man's Mark series armor is a personal equipment tailor-made for himself by one of the world's top rich men. It is not a mass-produced equipment for the US military or some other military force. It is a proper personal equipment.

The cost is different.

Secondly, the battlefield positioning is different.

What do Space Marines wear power armor for? They are going to fight. To fight a serious interstellar war, you have to brave the hail of bullets and artillery missiles to advance, and you have to withstand all kinds of unknown AOE damage on the battlefield.

And what is Iron Man doing wearing a suit? Fighting? No, he wants to be a world policeman and a superhero, to punish individual criminals and maintain world peace in an overall peaceful environment.

The power armor of Space Marines faces a war environment, so it can sacrifice flexibility and speed to a certain extent, but it requires heavy armor and a thick defense to ensure the survival of the warriors on the battlefield.

Iron Man does not need to face the battlefield environment of cannons and missiles. What he needs more is rapid global deployment. He needs to be able to arrive at the scene of a conflict and crime within a few minutes and needs to be worn quickly in sudden emergencies.

Therefore, the battlefield positioning of the Iron Man suit is actually to be light, flexible, and fast.

But compared to other superheroes in the American comic universe who just put on a bodysuit and rush out to fight, Iron Man seems to have very strong defense.

It's not that Tony Stark can't build a more defensive armor. The Hulkbuster armor is an example. It's just that under normal circumstances he doesn't need a stronger armor.

The armor shell made of titanium alloy is enough to withstand the small-caliber weapons of most criminals on the earth. The remaining energy can be spent on studying how to fly faster.

As long as it flies fast enough, large-caliber weapons cannot catch up.

Fu Qinghai was lying on his chair, his elbow resting on the back of his other hand, and he was spinning a ballpoint pen rapidly in his hand.

This is a subconscious action when he is thinking.

Now that Fu Qinghai wants to build his own armor, he naturally has to make certain trade-offs and choices between the two.

Fu Qinghai considered that he had left the anchor of the world in the Warhammer 40K universe. In the long run, he would definitely spend most of his time in the Warhammer 40K universe, so he could not focus on speed and ignore defense like Iron Man. His armor The defense must be strong enough.

There's a reason why Iron Man can fly so fast, faster than a fighter jet. That's because the armor of the armor is light and thin enough. And Iron Man's first attempt at power positioning, the Mark-38 Egg, completely The flight module was cancelled, and the power of the reactor was fully outputted in terms of strength. It alone supported the collapsing gantry crane in the port battle in "Iron Man 3". The subsequent two generations of Hulkbuster suits were also unable to fly.

So should I fly? Fu Qinghai was thinking while turning his pen.

To fly.

Of course fly.

The answer is yes.

Fu Qinghai chose a compromise solution - jump-pack flying soldiers in Space Marines.

The jump pack pilot uses a special power backpack. The output power is much greater than that of an ordinary power backpack. The size of the two nozzles is even larger. Using the jet pack, you can fly and jump short distances, and its function is not as long as Iron Man's. Intercontinental flight is just about crossing battlefield obstacles.

Many Space Marine legions like to focus on the use of jump pack flying units. The Jagged Sun Chapter in the Word Bearers, all flying units, the Sky Claws in Space Wolves, flying units, and the Blood Angels. And the Raven Guard, have special custom-made jetpacks, the Blood Angels' spouts are rectangular, and the Raven Guard's have two steel wings.

Now, Fu Qinghai decided to use Stark Industries' propulsion technology to customize a special jetpack for himself. Although it is not as fast as Iron Man, it is faster than all Space Marines! Because the essence of white scars is speed! And it is a detachable equipped jetpack, which can be used at critical moments.

That's it.

Next question, weapons.

Before the development of nano-war armor, the weapons and equipment of Iron Man and War Machine, including palm mines, micro-missiles, automatic cannons, etc., were integrated into the armor itself. To be integrated into the armor, it must be small. For miniaturization, the aerodynamic shape must be considered. In order to achieve this, a lot of power is naturally sacrificed.

If you just want to be a world policeman on earth, punishing evil and promoting good, then of course this powerful weapon will be enough.

But to be honest, for Fu Qinghai who wants to fight an interstellar war, he doesn't think highly of this power. Let alone in the Warhammer 40K universe, even on the surface of the earth, it is not a powerful weapon.

Therefore, Fu Qinghai decided that he should hold the weapon in his hand like a Space Marine's power armor, instead of welding it directly onto the armor.

The next question is about armor AI, artificial intelligence.

According to Fu Qinghai's own analysis, at least 30% to 40% of the Iron Man armor's combat effectiveness comes from the AI ​​system installed on the armor.

Whether it is the early "Jarvis" or the later "Friday", Iron Man's armor AI is not only a combat auxiliary program, a life support system, but also an all-weather and all-environment battlefield situation observation and analysis brain. The kind that can synthesize complex battlefield environments and give Tony Stark tactical analysis and decision-making suggestions.

Of course, the Space Marine's helmet also has a sighting system, a fire control system, an identification friend or foe system, a driving assistance system, etc., but overall, compared with several generations of Iron Man's AIs, they are still far inferior.

After all, artificial intelligence is better than rigid programs.

Here is an example for you.

Unlike other superheroes, such as Captain America, Winter Soldier, Widow Sister, etc., these people learn fighting skills. No matter what genre they are, they just study hard and practice hard to develop their fighting skills into muscle memory.

Including Fu Qinghai himself, who learned the assassination boxing fighting style with old man Hu Xian, this is also the case.

But Iron Man is different.

This guy has a very unique idea for learning fighting techniques. He recorded all the fighting processes of other superheroes using their armors, and then took them back for human body modeling analysis, analyzed various fighting styles and fighting techniques, and calculated them separately using algorithms. Counterattack and response combat strategies, and then let the AI ​​control the armor to automatically counterattack during the battle.

Because he took off his armor, Tony Stark is an ordinary person who has not received much combat training and military skills training. The reason why he can show extraordinary neurological reaction speed and continuous moves in close combat is In fact, it is all the result of AI automatically controlling the armor according to the preset fighting program.

Mechanical and electrical signal transmission cannot be slower than biological nerve signal transmission.

This is a bit like in the Street Fighter universe. Seth, who has a "black hole effect" device on his belly, can absorb and learn the skills of all other fighters. Theoretically, as long as the Iron Man armor AI has enough fighting experience, he can Defeat anyone in melee combat with skill.

Moreover, Tony Stark is a very scheming person. His position in the Avengers is the same as Batman in the Justice League. He is always on guard against his teammates. Iron Man’s AI database not only stores the information of his enemies The abilities and corresponding countermeasures include the abilities and corresponding countermeasures of each of his teammates, whether it is Thor, Captain America or Hulk.

Different from the previous flying and weapons, when it comes to artificial intelligence, Fu Qinghai is really hesitant and entangled.

Fu Qinghai is very aware of the power of Iron Man's armor with AI, and he also has a full set of technologies for Iron Man to develop the "Jarvis" system. However, in the Warhammer 40K universe, all silicon-based chips and silicon-based life forms belong to Hating intelligence, all violated the Crimson Protocol.

Fu Qinghai stopped turning his pen, frowning, thinking.

The Heretic Tribunal and the Mechanicus Church came to cause trouble. This was a trivial matter. Fu Qinghai thought of the Iron Hands and the Iron Warriors. It is said that these two legions are good at mechanical technology. Some of their Dreadnought Mechas were opened, and inside All are empty.

When the Astartes Legions were powerful, neither the Inquisition nor the Adeptus Mechanicus dared to do anything like this that was obviously playing with AI.

The point is, there is Tzeentch in Warhammer 40K, and there is Tzeentch's electronic demon.

That's the big deal.

Fu Qinghai recalled that on the Sossalan, a group of his own were fooled around by a pink fear monster from Tzeentch.

There are psychological shadows all over.

What if it is replaced by an artificial biological brain from the Thinker system?

Fu Qinghai shook his head. The Thinker system was too large and could not be miniaturized like a silicon-based chip.

Moreover, the Thinker system is only an alternative to silicon-based chips, not an alternative to silicon-based life.

In other words, can serious artificial intelligence be born inside the brain of an artificial creature?

Fu Qinghai doesn't know, and neither does Tony Stark's electronic soul backup.

"Well..." Fu Qinghai sighed and rubbed his eyebrows.

Regarding the plan to carry artificial intelligence in the armor, the final decision was to reserve a place for the chip interface, but put it on hold for the time being and not develop an artificial intelligence system.

After all, developing an artificial intelligence system is also a huge information project. The amount and difficulty of the code are no less than using a small shovel to build a Great Wall, and Fu Qinghai cannot develop it in a short time.

Let's do this for now.

…

After solving the above three major problems, flight, weapons and AI, the design of the remaining power armor will be simple.

There are many and numerous technical materials in Fu Qinghai's mind, some from Iron Man, representing the top science and technology on the surface of the MCU earth, and some from Master Quinto, representing the top science and technology of the human empire in the Warhammer 40K universe.

There is so much technical information, which may seem chaotic, but in fact it can be simply summarized and classified into two points:

〖Material〗

〖energy〗

Material science and energy science are the foundation and precursor science of all engineering.

On a planet without iron elements, it is impossible to build a spaceship that can leave the atmosphere with stones, wood and bones. This is the importance of materials science.

Not to mention energy science. If you are still using fossil energy internal combustion engines, you will be embarrassed to say that you are a reincarnation.

Fu Qinghai felt that it was time to categorize and organize the electronic soul backups in his mind. After thinking about it carefully, he added a third item based on his nineteen transformation surgeries and Warhammer 40K alien taxonomy data:

〖Biochemistry〗

Biochemical technology, together with materials science and energy science, are the three major categories of science and technology that Fu Qinghai currently masters.

〖Material〗:

Titanium alloy, which is the main material of the Iron Man Mark series of armors, is neither strong nor weak in the Marvel universe, mainly because it is light enough.

Ceramic, which is the main protective material for Space Marine power armor, has the advantage of strong defense and wide range of defense. It has good resistance to many weapons, including kinetic energy weapons, laser weapons, and fire-breathing weapons, and is resistant to high temperatures and heat. Corrosion is an excellent alloy that can maintain its properties in extremely harsh environments such as deserts, acid fog, and salt seas.

The disadvantage is that it is heavy. Ceramic steel is not light at all and is brittle. Objects with strong rigidity must also be brittle. Power armor is usually loaded with ceramic steel in the form of a composite armor plate like a tank. If it is cracked, one layer will be removed. , just exchange it directly, it is a battlefield consumable.

Plastic steel is the alloy Fu Qinghai provided to Hammer Industries. It is lighter in weight than ceramic steel and has good overall performance. It can be regarded as a cheap and cheap version of titanium alloy in the interstellar era.

As for fine gold, Adamantium alloy, and vibranium, Fu Qinghai also wanted them, but he didn't have them.

(PS: In Warhammer 40K, the English names of Adamantium and Adamantite are the same, but in order to distinguish them from Marvel, they will be two different metals in my book from now on)

It was decided that the main material of the power armor would still be ceramite-plastic-steel composite armor. The thickness would be slightly adjusted to be lowered, and titanium alloy would be added. Three layers of composite armor. Anyway, Hammer Industries was not short of money.

〖energy〗

The Ark Reactor is the first and leading energy source, the core technology of Stark Industries and even the Stark family. It is a cold nuclear fusion reactor with extremely powerful output power. The key is, it is still small! It can also be miniaturized!

What Howard Stark failed to do, his son Tony Stark did. How small can the Ark reactor be in the later period? Iron Man put seven of them on his armor at once, including the chest, back, palms and knees.

It also overcame the over-reliance on palladium in the early Ark reactor, which resulted in excessive heavy metals and radioactive poisoning.

A subatomic fusion reactor and a backup solar energy charging system (including 100 solar cells) are the standard energy core of the Space Marine power armor.

The advantage is that it is stable and will not easily overload or explode due to problems such as high temperature, current, extrusion, deformation, etc. It has a very long battery life, measured in ten years, and its power is also very strong, but the melting of subatomic nuclei of the same volume Compared with the Ark reactor, the output power of the reactor is not that interesting.

After all, compared with Iron Man's slim and streamlined armor, the large power backpack on the back of the Space Marine is not small. Of course, the power backpack contains not only subatomic nuclear fusion reactors, but also other life-support systems.

In this regard, Fu Qinghai's decision was to completely integrate the plan!

Combining the advantages of the two, he re-developed an energy core that is smaller in size but has greater output power.

Ark - Subatomic Nuclear Fusion Reactor.

…

After solving [Material] and [Energy], what is left is the engineering design that combines the two.

Although the Iron Man suit has artificial intelligence and the power armor does not, the power armor also has many excellent designs that the Iron Man suit does not.

Take, for example, the bundles of electronic muscle fibers that line the inner layer of the armor.

The power armor worn by Space Marines is divided into two layers. The outer shell is a huge power armor, and the inner layer is a black lining made of close-fitting metal fiber wires. This not-so-thin lining is the electronic muscle fiber bundle.

Except for the Mark-38 Egg and the two generations of Hulkbuster armors, all Mark series armors have vector drive cores with only simple directions, and do not have electronic muscle fiber bundles that can provide complex action strength enhancement devices. At this point, In terms of design, the design of power armor is ahead of the Iron Man suit.

In short, Iron Man can fly over and hit people, and his simple punches and kicks can also be promoted by the Ark Reactor, but there is no increase in power in complex fighting movements.

Of course, good design must continue.

"call--"

Fu Qinghai let out a sigh of relief.

The complete construction of the power armor plan, literally brainstorming, is finally completed.

Fu Qinghai, who had completed the modeling process in his mind, did not start manufacturing non-stop.

Instead, I thought about a question first.

name.

The first product he made, a mechanical servo arm, was named "Qingshan 1.0 Mechanical Servo Arm".

Now Fu Qinghai feels that something is wrong. He named a servo arm after "Qingshan". What if he develops more complex and powerful equipment in the future?

However, the "Aoyama Type 1.0 Mechanical Servo Arm" happened to be damaged on the wild planet of Warhammer 40K, and there will be no Type 2.0 in the future.

The new armor will not continue the code name "Mark" from the Iron Man armor and power armor, it is too uncreative.

Fu Qinghai decided to name it "Blue Shell 1.0 Power Armor"!

After thinking about it, this was the first model. It had not been tested on the battlefield and might have flaws, so Fu Qinghai added "beta", which means test version.

So, the final name is:

Blue Shell 1.0 beta. type power armor.

…………

Thanks to Fenel, the proletarian monk Astartes, the giant swordsman, DK Qin Ge, Yu Jing, the senior brother and master were captured by monsters, the invasion is like fire and thunder, and several book friends for their rewards.

Three big explosions!

The drama actor pretending to be a Manchu and Justin Hammer were locked up in a prison. This is the story in the Marvel short film "Long Live the King". This unpopular short film is probably not seen by many book friends. It is to lead to the following " "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings" story, but the filming of Shang-Chi was so fucking bad.
