One month later...
The knockout stage has officially begun.
This competition also brought together the heads of major military research institutes across China.
On the one hand, it is to examine the research results of its own cooperative research institutes.
On the other hand, it's of course to conduct on-site investigations to see if there are any new technologies that can be utilized.
This has strengthened China's military power.
The opening match is between Lanxiang Vocational School and Northwestern Polytechnical University.
First up is the "Red Wing Vanguard" from Lanxiang Vocational School.
All the mechanical legs have been repaired, and they've even been specially decorated with red graffiti.
"Holy crap, Lanxiang Vocational School's research capabilities are amazing! Last time it was almost scrapped, but now it's like new!"
"This time, the challenge is against the Seven Sons of National Defense, and I heard they all have heavy weapons."
"What are those two cans for? Are the robot dogs racing with baby formula?"
Unlike the previous "Red Wing Vanguard," which had graffiti on its fuselage, this one also features two black canisters on its left and right sides.
It's clearly prepared for this competition!
Northwestern Polytechnical University's "Mammoth" aeroboat entered the competition venue.
Its appearance was met with thunderous cheers.
"Is this a robot? Isn't this just a tank???"
"Full metal tracks, mecha body, its defense is maxed out!"
"Is that a heavy machine gun? Are they going all out right from the start?"
The "Mammoth" is a mechanical raptor modeled after the Type 90 tank.
The weapon used was a 7.62mm coaxial machine gun.
It uses automatic firing and automatic reloading technology, so even in modern warfare, it would be a killing machine!
"The opponent hasn't upgraded any system. Apart from the color change, there's no difference from the previous matches. Principal Yan, this game is in the bag!"
The members of the Northwestern Polytechnical University team saw that the [Red Wing Vanguard] was almost identical to the data they had.
There wasn't much technological modification involved.
"Be careful, they've installed two launch canisters; they must have come prepared!"
The captain carefully observed the Red Wing Vanguard through his binoculars and began to formulate tactics.
"What preparations could we possibly have? Captain, I've checked. Lanxiang Technical School doesn't have any military research qualifications at all. Let's just do it!"
At the referee's whistle,
The operator from the Northwestern Polytechnical University team didn't waste any words.
Operate the coaxial machine gun on top of the Mammoth to lock onto the Redwing Vanguard.
Rat-a-tat-tat~~~ It was a burst of intense output.
The sound of real gunfire stunned the audience.
"Attention! This is not a drill! This is not a drill! This is not a drill!!!"
"Go all out???"
"Is this the strength of the Seven Sons of National Defense? The cars in front look like toy cars!"
"I want to get off! This isn't the bus to the Children's Palace!!!"
Faced with the sudden attack from the Mammoth, the members of the Lanxiang team activated their emergency response plan.
Move quickly along the edge of the arena to dodge the attacks of the Mammoth.
"Major General He, what is the current movement speed?"
General Miao Lihua, director of the Fifth Research Institute of the Army, also came to watch the competition in person.
Based on years of practical experience and watching previous matches,
Major General He could clearly feel that the Red Wing Vanguard was moving much faster this time.
"Director Miao, it's at least 60 kilometers per hour, and the speed is still increasing!"
The Fifth Research Institute of the Army was the contractor for the Type 90 tank upgrade project.
Of course, I know that the Mammoth is equipped with the next generation of coaxial machine guns.
Northwestern Polytechnical University has already submitted most of the experimental data.
On the contrary, it was the power system of Lanxiang Vocational School that aroused Dean Miao's interest.
"Dean Miao, don't be fooled by its slow speed; the Red Wing Vanguard is so small..."
With limited space available for the battery system, achieving this level of mobility is already...
Dean Miao nodded.
The commentator was also taken aback by Northwestern Polytechnical University's tactics.
After stammering for a while, the commentator finally said, "The race has already begun. The Mammoth seems unwilling to waste too much time on Lanxiang Vocational School."
They started with overwhelming firepower, and now the [Red Wing Vanguard] is already running for its life!
Major General Xu, as a judge, could you offer some advice to the Lanxiang Vocational School team?
"The firepower is too strong. Now, as soon as the 'Red Wing Vanguard' from Lanxiang Vocational School slows down..."
It's highly likely it will be destroyed directly. If I remember correctly, the coaxial machine gun has a rate of fire of over 400 rounds per minute.
This generation should be the latest, and there are probably more than four hundred of them!
"A one-sided crushing defeat?"
The commentator watched Major General Xu expectantly.
"Wait for a reload opportunity. Although the coaxial machine gun is fast, its accuracy is not high. It is mainly used for self-defense against infantry."
It is extremely effective against slow-moving units at close range, but its magazine capacity is small.
The reloading window will be the Red Wing Vanguard's only chance to counterattack!
Just as Major General Xu had predicted, after a salvo, the sand and gravel on the ground were reduced to a pulp.
Because of the upgraded propulsion system of the Red Wing Vanguard, it was not hit.
However, the situation had already turned one-sided, and there wasn't even time to launch a laser cannon, let alone engage in close combat.
"Captain, the enemy is reloading!"
The operators of the Lanxiang Vocational School team keenly noticed that the enemy had stopped attacking.
"Fire the laser cannon first! Test their strength!"
"receive!"
The Red Wing Vanguard made a sudden stop and locked onto the Mammoth's machine gun turret.
The Mammoth is fully armored, but the turrets for its parallel machine guns are exposed on top of the body.
If the output weapons in the server room can be destroyed
That can turn the tide.
The internal blade battery pack began charging the transmitter.
The entire charging time is approximately 5 seconds.
Thump thump thump~~~~~
Before the Lanxiang team's operator could even press the launch button,
Another wave of attacks came crashing down.
"What's going on? Are there no bullets left?"
"Could someone be hiding inside the Mammoth reloading? The reload speed is that fast?"
"Brother, this is a robot competition. If there are people involved, what's the point of having an operator? Just declare them the loser, okay?"
"The Red Wing Vanguard's attempt to counterattack failed; the Mammoth's attack frequency was too high."
Major General Xu, is this a new technology?
"They must have installed an automatic form-filling device. I didn't expect Northwestern Polytechnical University's research on automation machinery to have such a hidden skill!"
Northwestern Polytechnical University has long been a leading university in China in the fields of weapons, ammunition, and artillery technology.
In order to achieve a breakthrough in this China Robotics Competition, the School of Mechanical Automation, the School of Power Engineering, and the School of Mechatronics joined forces.
They jointly developed an automatic loading device for this coaxial machine gun, which takes only 3 seconds.
It can then automatically complete the reloading process...
