Thinking silently in his heart, Li Chen raised his eyes to look at the person in charge.
He waved his hand and said calmly and confidently.
"You don't need to worry too much about the problems you just mentioned. If there is anything you can't solve in the future, remember to report it as soon as possible!"
With his promise, the person in charge immediately nodded excitedly.
"Then Mr. Commander, I'll go down and arrange work first?"
He can't wait now, and he will continue to immerse himself in science and technology.
But Li Chen stopped him at this time.
"Wait, tell me the data about the third-generation curvature engine first, so that I can have a bottom line."
"It also makes everyone feel at ease."
With that said, Li Chen looked at the expectant eyes all around.
Millions of commanders here have heard the conversation just now.
Let them have a good understanding of how powerful the fleet they will command in the future is.
This is very necessary.
As the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing your enemy is a cliché...
"Mr. Commander, the relevant data has already been sent to you, and you can check it anytime and anywhere!"
The person in charge of the power system design department turned around and explained to Li Chen in surprise.
"oh?"
"Is it…"
Li Chen said, and opened the detailed data panel about the third-generation curvature engine.
After seeing the detailed data of the third-generation curvature engine, his eyes flickered slightly.
At this time, those commanders around.
All of them stretched their necks and looked forward to it. Obviously, they also wanted to know the data of this third-generation curvature engine.
Li Chen concealed some key information and data.
Switched to an abbreviated version that won't reveal the secret.
Then the relevant data information was displayed in front of each commander.
And as expected, after seeing these information data.
The commanders in the audience were instantly shocked.
"What! Is the performance of the third-generation curvature engine so powerful?"
"Amazing! It's no wonder that with the current material technology, the research progress of the new generation of curvature engines has already hit a bottleneck!"
"Although my head is a mess about this kind of data, it doesn't stop me from thinking it's amazing!"
"..."
These commanders, after seeing the data in front of them clearly.
All of them were shocked beyond measure.
The third generation of curvature engine.
It is very different from the previous first-generation and second-generation curvature engines.
To put it simply, the curvature engines of the first and second generations still follow the standard set of ordinary propulsion systems.
There are only five gears used, namely forward one, forward two, forward three, forward four and forward five.
These five gears correspond to 30%, 50%, 100%, 500%, and 5000% of the maximum conventional speed that the current ship can reach.
Such as the second-generation curvature engine.
Its conventional maximum speed is 10,000 times the speed of light.
If one gear is used, its speed is three thousand times the speed of light.
Moving forward two times is five thousand times the speed of light.
At forward four, sailing at a strong speed, then it will achieve a 500% effect, reaching a speed of 50,000 times the speed of light.
And moving forward five times is fifty times the full speed, that is, five hundred thousand times the speed of light.
This is the gear of the second-generation curvature engine.
However, this division of gears makes the optional power of the ship very limited.
Sometimes it cannot meet the requirements of more complex battlefield environment and actual use environment.
It's either too fast or too slow, there's no other choice.
It's going to be **** the people who pilot these ships.
The third-generation curvature engine perfectly solves this problem.
They're not just a bigger increase in maximum speed.
Moreover, the shift of gears has become more flexible and humanized.
Still take the forward gear as an example.
The third-generation curvature engine has a maximum normal speed of 30,000 times the speed of light.
It is divided into ten gears from 1 to 10 in total.
Each gear can be fine-tuned for speed, achieving a more detailed control of the engine output power.
Level 1 speed gear can make the ship have a normal speed of 30%, which has not changed much.
Under this gear, it can travel at nine thousand times the speed of light.
The second gear is 50% of the normal speed, which is no different from the previous generation.
This is also true for the 3rd gear, 4th gear, and 5th gear, and there is no change from the previous one.
It will only be different when you reach the gear above level 5.
The gears above level 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, increase the speed by 100 times, 200 times, 300 times, 500 times and 1000 times respectively.
The corresponding speed changes are 3 million times the speed of light, 6 million times the speed of light, 9 million times the speed of light...and so on.
In other words, the maximum speed of the third-generation curvature engine can reach 30 million times the speed of light!
Of course, these gears can be fine-tuned, for example, each gear can be accelerated or decelerated by 100 steps.
Each increment or deceleration means that the speed of the current gear is reduced or increased by 1%.
For example, level 1 gear is 9,000 times the speed of light.
Speed up by 100 blocks.
That is equivalent to increasing the speed by 9,000 times the speed of light, making the maximum speed of level 1 gear 18,000 times the speed of light.
And decelerating 100 blocks means "stopping", that is, the power output is zero.
This is very convenient to adjust the speed requirements of the ship in different environments.
What Li Chen is concerned about at this moment is the impact of this new change.
However, most of the commanders are concerned about the change of the maximum speed.
"One thousand times the normal speed gear! Isn't that thirty million times the speed of light? This is too powerful!"
"Yeah, it's sixty times the maximum speed of the second-generation curvature engine, which means we... sorry I'm not good at math, who will calculate for me the speed of our Star Destroyer battle group, how much it will become quick?"
"Simple! Thirty million times the speed of light means that our speed is about 0.95 light-years per second, which can be approximately regarded as one light-year per second!"
"A light year per second?! Are you kidding me?"
"The value displayed on the data is like this, and the calculation result is of course like this..."
"..."
The commanders below speak to each other.
The data seen in front of them has completely exceeded their cognition.
While many people were amazed, some data emperors began to debate fiercely.
But at this moment, some of those high-ranking commanders felt worried.
"Commander, with the powerful speed of our third-generation curvature engine, the energy consumed will be an astronomical figure..."
It was naturally Xu Ruoxi who raised this doubt and worry.
