    "As for the second method, we start with materials. Pure metal armor materials can no longer meet our needs. So in the future, we can start with other materials, including non-metallic materials. By looking for different materials, we may be able to  Get a very satisfying defense.¡±

    Carl nodded again and again.  Sure enough, just as Major Kromlin introduced, Qin Baoshan's thinking is very broad, and he can provide them with different ideas.  Whether it is the problem of tank explosion or the current protection problem.  What Qin Baoshan said were all directions that they had never considered, and it was possible to realize it.

    At this time, Lieutenant Colonel William came over and said to Qin Baoshan: "What do you think about our airborne motorcycle?"

    Don't always discuss the issue of tanks, anyway, their paratroopers can't equip them.  Lieutenant Colonel William is even more enthusiastic about motorcycles.

    Hearing what he said, Qin Baoshan thought for a while, and then said: "There is nothing wrong on the plane, so let me draw a blueprint."

    The last time Qin Baoshan drew a blueprint, Lieutenant Colonel William took it for processing, and finally made a very effective rocket launcher.  This time Qin Baoshan was going to draw again.  What he drew was just a sketch. According to the memory in his mind, he drew the airborne motorcycle.

    In order for the motorcycle to be airborne, its body must be particularly compact and its overall height must be reduced.  So the engine and the fuel tank are all underneath, just like a baby car.  At the same time, the seat must be liftable.  For the size of American soldiers, it is estimated that the seat must be raised to the head to allow them to drive this motorcycle more comfortably.  The seat is raised and lowered, and the steering handle in the front is folded and can be folded back together.  In this way, the entire compact motorcycle can be put into a box.  Hang a parachute outside, then you can parachute down.

    Qin Baoshan also had an impression of this motorcycle.  In his original time and space, this kind of World War II decommissioned materials are also very popular. There are a large group of World War II enthusiasts who like to collect these things.  Of course, for Qin Baoshan in that time and space, he was only qualified to watch, not to buy at all.  Among them, this kind of airborne motorcycle is a commodity that is in short supply.  Those with slightly better quality can be sold for more than 10,000 US dollars. In the United States, with this money, you can buy a large-displacement Harley or BMW motorcycle.

    At this time, Qin Baoshan drew the blueprint of this motorcycle according to his own memory.  Lieutenant Colonel William looked at it with gusto, especially since this motorcycle can be stuffed into a box, which is very convenient.  Just looking at this design drawing, Lieutenant Colonel William is already full of interest in him, and hopes that this weapon can be built as soon as possible.

    In fact, compared to this kind of motorcycle, electric vehicles are more suitable.  As long as it is fully charged, it can run a distance. For the airborne troops, what is needed is the mobility of this initial period.  But in this era, there is no supporting production capacity for electric bicycles at all, so Qin Baoshan doesn't bother with it.

    The plane flew to Detroit soon and landed in a military airport.  Then the group boarded a military off-road vehicle and headed towards Chrysler.

    Karl has a high status in the company, so when he brought these people of unknown origin into the factory, no one came to stop him, and he brought them in without any formalities.  Carl had just entered the office, though.  He called a few people to sit down, and before he could take a breath, someone came to him.

    "Carl, you are finally back, we have encountered a problem." A person came in from outside.  Holding some materials in his hand, he talked while walking.  After he walked in, he found that Carl's office was full of people, which made him a little strange.  Carl has always been quite proud, when has he ever seen him entertain so many people in his office.

    "Philips, what's the matter?" Carl asked.  Philip looked at the people present and was a little embarrassed. After all, this matter was kept secret, but Karl did not have this awareness. He said to his companion: "If you have any questions, please speak up. We have a very good  engineer, maybe he can help us."

    Hearing Carl's words, Philips looked at these people even more curiously.  He knew that Karl had always been very arrogant, when would he be able to praise others as a very good engineer?  How many of them are soldiers, and how many of them have oriental faces. Could it be that these orientals are engineers?

    Although he was a little curious, since Carl said so, Philips didn't care.  He said: "Washington ordered a batch of centrifuges from us. Among them, our centrifuges are required to have strong corrosion resistance. Therefore, after careful consideration, we chose Gold.?Nickel to make pipes.  But our research has found that the amount of this metal needed is too large, even if we find all the nickel in the world, it will not be enough at all.  "

    Hearing this, Qin Baoshan could only feel his heart beating.  He never thought that such a thing would happen here.

    The three words centrifuge seem to be no big deal in this era.  Centrifugal exercise is a very common physical exercise.  Centrifugal phenomena can be produced simply by accelerating something to a high rotational speed.  For example, the dryer of the washing machine is a model of centrifugal motion.  In industrial production, centrifuges are also needed.

    But soon, everyone will pay special attention to the word centrifuge, because the centrifuge will soon be combined with the atomic bomb.  Centrifuges are used to purify nuclear materials.  For many countries, nuclear weapons are an insurmountable mountain.  Because if you want to produce a nuclear explosion, you need highly enriched nuclear materials.  This requires a centrifuge to complete.  For some countries with insufficient industrial foundation, even if they concentrate all the electricity of the whole country and supply it to centrifuges, it is not enough for them to purify weapon-grade nuclear materials.

    The Manhattan Project is a very secretive project in the United States.  But for many subordinate agencies, they don't even know what they are going to do.  Even at the base of the Manhattan Project, only a few people knew exactly what they were going to do.  Most of the employees are doing research step by step.  The Chrysler factory is a well-known factory, so they got an order for a batch of centrifuges. As a result, they encountered difficulties during the development.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
