The moment the light fell again, Lynch noticed that Peleus had already removed the strap used to fix it, and he directly took the night vision device in his hand.

He was a little excited, "What is this?"

Lynch glanced at the chief engineer, who had cooperated with Lynch many times, and the two cooperated very well.

"This is the night vision device, Your Excellency the General."

"Its working principle is to convert some light that we humans cannot see into light that we can see, and the function of this machine is to emit these light that we cannot see."

"Actually, it's just a high-power flashlight, there's nothing magical about it!"

The chief engineer explained it briefly, but it was still difficult for soldiers with little knowledge to understand, but this did not prevent them from realizing the magic of this thing!

"If you have it, then the problem we have now..."

He couldn't help but think of the situation where the Pengjieao people on the southern continent had been fighting at night. If they had these things, they would have an overall advantage.

It can even be said that whether there are airborne troops is not so important. Everyone is fighting with their eyes closed at night.

Suddenly they can see at night, it's not the slightest advantage anymore, it's the other **** cheating!

They can effectively cover the enemy's defense facilities with firepower, and they don't have to worry too much about being named by the enemy's long-range firepower. This thing is very useful.

But Lynch quickly poured cold water on him, "If you want the entire battlefield to be illuminated, then we may need a lot of high-power equipment, and even need to solve some technical difficulties."

"But only for relatively small-scale applications at present, we can still be satisfied."

He glanced at the slightly deformed hood in Peleus' hands, "Don't hold it so tightly, there is a row of batteries inside..."

The biggest problem with this gadget is not actually the power of the transmission, but the equipment that receives it also needs power.

Peleus looked at the obviously smaller device in his hand, and took out a row of batteries from it.

To him, who was too strong to be human, he couldn't feel the addition of a battery or the lack of a battery, but for ordinary people, this thing was very heavy.

After the miniaturization research task of electronic components developed by Professor Vito Curryland State University was completed, Lynch dug him into another laboratory of his own to preside over various research work.

His first task was to find a way to shrink the battery.

The previous batteries were large and heavy, weighing several pounds, so when the professor showed Lynch his portable "call receiver," the entire receiver was assembled in a suitcase.

Otherwise, there is really no place to arrange such a big thing.

Now, as the project progresses, and Lynch uses the memory of the brain's limited battery, he has made great progress in research.

Sometimes for scientific inventions, it's just a little bit of inspiration!

These battery technologies have not been disclosed to the outside world, and they already have small-scale production with low and medium technical thresholds.

These batteries used to power the night vision devices are patented products from another laboratory.

Peleus didn't quite understand these, he just summed it up with "batteries are so small now" and ignored it.

"Why not get two glasses?"

Lynch took off his equipment and weighed it in his hand, "Cost, price, weight."

"It's more for the main fire than everyone wears a pair."

Peleus smiled nonchalantly, "Money is not a problem."

Lynch also laughed, "That's no problem!"

Then he invited everyone into the conference room, and people hung up a huge picture of the future development direction of the product.

"This is a kind of equipment and model specially used for air operations. It will use the aircraft as a carrier to emit light downward at a certain height."

"The advantage of this is that there is no need to arrange a separate light emitting machine on the ground, and it will not be affected by the terrain."

"It's a device that fires at a smaller angle, but maintains high power, and it can mark distant targets at night, providing clear targets for artillery, etc..."

"This is…"

The chief engineer stood beside Lynch and continued to make some additions and supplements for him. Lynch acted calmly, but the chief engineer was a little bit numb.

Not to mention the prototypes of these things, even the project has not been **** established. Up to now, it is completely out of Lynch's imagination.

Sometimes he couldn't understand Lynch's mind at all.

Call him a scientist, but he often acts more like a madman than a scientist.

But if you want to say that he doesn't know at all, he is always able to find the direction of research and development for everyone at the critical moment of research and development.

The only thing the chief engineer can do is to help Lynch complete what he boasted, at least on a theoretical level.

People from the military are interested in these futuristic tech-style devices, especially the two projects Lynch mentioned.

The first project is a project named "Little Sun"—

"This special aircraft will bring a more powerful transmitter into the sky. Once it starts to shine on the ground in the air, we can get a certain degree of effective vision in a very large range."

The second item is the technical content—

"We're working on a special shell that will acquire a self-correcting ability."

"It will fine-tune its orbit all the time based on a point specified by our high-frequency signal as the coordinates of the target!"

If some of the previous projects Lynch was just talking about the possibility of future development, then the second project that the military is interested in is complete nonsense!

How could the shell possibly know how to adjust its aim by itself?

In the words of an officer who seems to be joking, if the shells can find their own targets, will everyone develop super giant cannons in the future?

The kind of giant cannon that can fly hundreds of thousands of kilometers with one shell, and one shell with long eyes can destroy the designated target within the range.

How to fight that battle?

Shoot each other, and the war is over.

It's not because everyone is dead, but because each other's presidents or rulers are dead.

Everyone laughed, thinking that this might be an unrealistic sci-fi romanticism.

However, Peleus is still very interested in this project.

After simple and uncomplicated negotiations, the two parties basically reached an agreement on the price.

The price of a single high-power launcher like a small tank is 450,000. It is more expensive than a tank, but obviously the military thinks it is worth it.

In addition to the most advanced technology, there are not many opportunities to use it in actual warfare, and it does not need to be deployed on a large scale like tanks.

There may be three or five units in one division, or even two or three units, so the price seems high, but the total unit price is not high.

The second is the night vision device used by individual soldiers. The whole set costs 1,350 yuan, and the net profit is about 600 yuan.

But if Lynch didn't tell, who would know?

In addition, Peleus sponsored 10 million to the Flight Research Institute, mainly for the development of two projects he was interested in.

Aerial lighting, and guidance.

The development cost of the former is actually not high. It is nothing more than modifying the bomber and then running a wind tunnel. As long as it does not fall off, just add a little more armor.

Its job is to hover all the time. Since it does not emit light, there is no big problem in hovering at low altitudes.

As for guidance, there is basically no possibility of realizing it in a short time.

But no matter what, it is definitely better than nothing if you can eat 10 million R&D funds for free.

Soon Peleus and others returned to the military with samples, and then a new order fell on Lynch.

The federal military has proposed some improvements. If Lynch can complete these improvements, then the order can fall on him.

From the current point of view, the first batch of military needs at least 500 launch vehicles, 50,000 sets of individual night vision devices, and more and larger large-scale night vision equipment with focusing and long-range functions.

The total order value exceeds 350 million.

Such a large order must still be paid for by the federal government's military expenses. It is impossible for the military to take out the money in the small treasury by itself.

Since it needs to be paid by the federal government, it must be signed by Mr. Truman, otherwise the federal government will not approve such a large amount of money.

Seeing Lynch's name on a big contract again, Mr. Truman felt a little headache, "Are all these things necessary?"

He looked at some terms and contents in the contract that he couldn't understand at all, and he didn't want to check them one by one for a while.

He is exhausted from being busy every day, and he also believes that the military will not be so greedy.

At least they won't show greed, and it won't be revealed in this contract, so even if he thinks about it line by line, he may not be able to get the answer he wants or doesn't want in the end.

The officer who came to deliver the contract nodded repeatedly, "It will determine whether we can break through the blockade of the Pengjieao people~lightnovelpub.net~It really is very important!

Mr. Truman thought for a while, and finally took out a pen to approve his opinion, and he agreed to the temporary military application.

The Congress will pay out soon, and now the lords of Congress don't even have the power to review.

After watching the officer leave, Mr. Truman picked up the phone and called Peleus, and the two chatted about Lynch's new order.

He also knew its significance from Peleus, and it would change the situation that the Federation had been passively beaten in the night battle.

As long as they can gain the initiative on the battlefield, they have a great chance of crushing the insidious and forced blockade tactics of the Penteo people.

At the end, he asked Peleus a question, casually, as if by accident.

"Has no one in other R&D institutions achieved anything in this regard?"

"I found out we've been ordering equipment from Lynch lately."
