    Weather weapons are nothing new, nor are they science fiction. As early as the Second World War in the last century, humans had actually already had preliminary applications of weather weapons.

    De-fogging the airport to ensure the take-off and landing of aircraft, and creating heavy fog to protect troops from crossing rivers are all early applications of meteorological weapons.

    In the true sense, the technology of artificial weather modification appeared in the 1940s. The success of federal scientists' experiments on supercooled fog nuclei turning into ice laid the foundation for the development of artificial weather modification.

    Since then, the Federation has begun experiments in applying artificial weather intervention technology to the military field.

    Since 1966, the federal government secretly carried out artificial rainfall on the Vietnam battlefield for seven years to disrupt traffic and cause difficulties in the mobilization and material transportation of the Vietnamese People's Army.

    The whole process is divided into two stages: test and actual operation. The test stage was carried out in Laos in 1966, and the actual operation stage was carried out in the narrow strip at the junction of Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia during the annual rainy season from 1967 to 1972.

    The main method of operation is to use wc-130e weather reconnaissance aircraft and rf-4c reconnaissance aircraft to launch smoke bombs containing silver iodide or lead iodide into cumulus clouds in the operating area.  The cigarette bomb is ignited during the falling process and produces artificial crystal nuclei to achieve the purpose of urging clouds and rain.

    This federal artificial rainfall operation is considered a precedent for the use of meteorological weapons for meteorological warfare, and it became the beginning of the application of meteorological weapons to the battlefield.

    As for the term weather weapon, it appeared in the 1970s, and its outstanding feature is its strong concealment.

    Sometimes the consequences of artificial weather modification are mixed with natural weather changes, and the effects of artificial weather modification exerted on the weather at a certain time and place may be far away from the target area hours, days or even weeks later.  area can be expressed.

    It is difficult to discern the connection between such consequences and artificial impact operations, and it is easy for attackers to evade the responsibility of those who initiated the war.

    Although as early as 1977, the United Nations promulgated the Convention on the Prohibition of the Use of Means to Affect Climate Change for Military Purposes, and in the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, it reiterated the prohibition on the development of meteorological weapons. However, the federal government has  The research on weather control technology by the European and American military powers has never stopped.

    Meteorological weapons are strategic weapons that embody the concept of total war and have destructive capabilities comparable to weapons of mass destruction such as nuclear, biological and chemical weapons. At the same time, meteorological weapons are also concealed, making it difficult for the victimized country to hold accountable.

    Therefore, in the era of bipolar hegemony, the Federation has such a powerful weapon, how can Suvia be willing to lag behind and be threatened by the Federation's weather weapons?

    Therefore, during the most intense period of the bipolar struggle for hegemony in the last century, Suvia also invested heavily in the research of its own weather weapons, and achieved quite good results, and even completed a weather controller similar to that found in science fiction novels.

    It¡¯s just that this weather controller has flaws due to technical reasons. It can only affect the weather within a certain range centered on the instrument. It cannot affect and control the weather from a long distance. The cost of using it once is also quite high and requires a lot of operations.  preparation work.

    This also made this weather controller as useless to Suvia at the time, tasteless and a pity to abandon.

    The Soviets started this machine several times, and all they could do was adjust the weather near the capital and avoid two droughts.

    Of course, for the Suvians of that era, this level of weather control was already a very remarkable achievement. At least it could defend the capital from attacks by federal weather weapons.

    And the Suvians did not skimp on subsequent investment and still planned to continue research.

    But with the deterioration of the economic situation in the late Suvian era and the eventual disintegration of Suviya, the successor Lucia did not have enough strength to continue to promote these studies.

    The space program of the Soviet era was forced to suspend. Even the space shuttles that had been built could only be abandoned and allowed to decay. A large number of scientific research institutions were unable to support them and had to be disbanded. The same was true for the research on meteorological weapons.

    The entire weather controller was sealed together with the supporting base. Although Lucia officials wanted to restart the research several times, they were too poor to come up with the funds to restart the research, or even maintain the sealed base.  Neither can be done.

    This also led to the fact that when Chen Xin and others came here, the gate of the base was the same as the base that Chen Xin and the others had visited in Siberia before. It had not been opened for decades.

    Looking at the dust raised after the door was opened, as well as the dust covered on the surrounding equipment and various thingsWith a thick layer of dust, Chen Xin couldn't help but said: "Even if you don't have money for maintenance, you won't say that you won't even clean it for decades, right?"

    "The level of confidentiality here is very high. No one has come in since it was sealed." The accompanying Lucia officials were obviously not surprised by this situation. After all, they inherited too rich a legacy when Suvia was disintegrated.  I have become accustomed to these things and don't really care about them.

    In fact, this research base and the weapons testing site in Siberia that Chen Xin and the others had seen before were both sealed and the files were left in the warehouse for decades without anyone noticing.

    If the leader of Lucia had not come from the Soviet intelligence service and had some understanding of these things, and had taken stock of these heritages of the Soviet era after coming to power, I am afraid that the existence of these things would have even been forgotten.  No one will remember that Suvia conducted these studies.

    Chen Xin could only shake his head helplessly at this, stepping on the thick dust on the ground to enter the research base, wanting to see what the weather controller made by the Suvians looked like.

    However, when Chen Xin walked into the base, he realized through the introduction of the official Lucia next to him that the so-called weather controller was actually the entire base.

    The weather controller manufactured by the Soviets at that time continued the consistent thinking and style of Soviet military weapons. Not to mention it was stupid, black and rough. After realizing the function, it directly relied on power to defeat it.

    Thanks to it, the entire weather controller is extremely large. Although the core part is not particularly large, its supporting equipment requires the entire base to accommodate it.

    And if you want to use this weather controller once, you need a supporting nuclear power plant to supply power to it, and you also need aircraft to sow relevant chemicals in the corresponding airspace in advance to enhance the effect, which is very cumbersome.

    If the tedious steps and huge investment are just a price Suvia can accept, the fact that this weather controller can only affect the weather in its surrounding area makes subsequent Lucia officials feel that it is really worthless.  .

    This also makes them willing to trade this seemingly important strategic weapon with Yan State.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
