Chapter 680
The target was destroyed, and the target was still alive.
At this time, Su Mo and Han Sanqiu, as well as Chief Zhao and Political Commissar Lei, all stepped forward quickly.
They couldn’t wait to test the specific power of the electromagnetic pulse rifle.
When they approached and took a closer look, they saw that after the target was hit and destroyed, not only was there a fist-sized hole in the center.
Even the entire surface of the target was charred as if it had been struck by lightning.
Looking at the target made of steel plates, there was actually a hole that could fit a fist.
After getting closer, Chief Zhao sighed: “Oh my goodness, is this the effect of a rifle?”
Political Commissar Lei also looked unbelievable: “Even if a heavy sniper rifle is equipped with armor-piercing bullets, it will not have such power!”
Su Mo heard this, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips and explained: “Chief, electromagnetic pulse rifles and traditional rifles are two different concepts.”
“Traditional rifles use the energy of gunpowder gas to generate high-pressure gas in the chamber, pushing the bullet along the barrel to accelerate forward, relying on speed to penetrate and kill.”
“But the electromagnetic pulse rifle does not fire a live bullet, but an ultra-high-voltage pulse current compressed by special means.”
“The principles between the two are different, and the effects presented will naturally be very different.”
After hearing Su Mo’s explanation, Chief Zhao and Political Commissar Lei nodded as if they understood.
After all, the two were not engaged in scientific research, and they could only understand the principle of this new weapon roughly.
“Little comrade, let me see the gun.” Chief Zhao waved to the weapon tester.
“Yes! Chief!” After turning off the safety, the tester quickly handed it over with both hands.
After taking the electromagnetic pulse rifle and holding it in his hand, Chief Zhao subconsciously said: “Wow! So light?”
Su Mo, who was standing next to him, smiled and replied: “Chief, the main feature of rifles between countries now is light weight and portability.”
“So this electromagnetic pulse rifle is the same as the Dragon 191 rifle, and the whole is made of engineering plastics.”
“In addition, the mechanical principle is different, so it is 40% lighter than the traditional Dragon 191 rifle.”
Hearing Su Mo say this, Chief Zhao nodded with great satisfaction.
If a rifle is too heavy, it will undoubtedly consume too much physical strength of the soldiers and become a burden on the battlefield.
Especially in the fast pace of modern warfare and the ever-changing battlefield, lightweight rifles are more conducive to soldiers’ rapid response and action.
Therefore, the mainstream rifles between the armies of various countries now have replaced the traditional solid wood gun body with lighter engineering plastics.
While reducing the overall weight of the gun, it also has sufficient strength and good impact resistance and wear resistance, and is not easy to deform and crack.
It has good resistance to water and various corrosive substances, unlike solid wood gun bodies that are easily damp and rotten in humid or harsh environments.
Holding this electromagnetic pulse rifle, Chief Zhao carefully looked at it and couldn’t help wanting to try the performance of this gun himself.
He opened the safety with his right hand and took a standard standing shooting posture.
Chief Zhao’s sudden move scared Su Mo, Political Commissar Lei and others, and they hurried forward to stop him.
This gun is currently only in the testing stage, and its stability cannot be guaranteed. If something unexpected happens, it’s not a joke!
Although the probability is so small that it can be ignored, Su Mo didn’t dare to let the chief of the war zone take risks.
Moreover, Chief Zhao didn’t wear a bulletproof vest and bulletproof helmet like the weapon testers, and he also wore special goggles and insulating gloves.
Su Mo, Political Commissar Lei and others would never agree to test the gun without any protective measures.
Under the constant persuasion of everyone, Chief Zhao, who was itching to try the new weapon, had to give up.
The weapon tester who took over the electromagnetic pulse rifle again conducted a long-range shooting test as instructed.
This time, the fixed target at 50 meters was changed to 200 meters away.
A beam of blue light shot out from the mouth of the electromagnetic pulse rifle.
Almost at the moment when the tester pulled the trigger, a fist-sized hole was punched on the fixed target 200 meters away.
The display screen connected to the target electronic collector was instantly burned black by the current like last time.
As the test progressed, this electromagnetic pulse rifle still accurately hit the target at a distance of 400 meters, and another electronic collector encountered a short circuit.
“800
Meter fixed target test!”
When the observer reported this number, his voice was full of tension.
Chief Zhao, Political Commissar Lei, Han Sanqiu and others also held their breath.
Because looking at the world, the maximum range of automatic rifles is usually around 600 meters, and the Dragon 191 rifle is within this range.
And the longest-range fully automatic rifle is the United States’ M27, with an effective killing range of 800 meters.
As the trigger was pulled, another blue light cut through the air!
A fist-sized hole appeared again on the fixed target 800 meters away!
“Wow, 800 meters still has such a strong killing power? ! “Chief Zhao and Political Commissar Lei exclaimed.
Su Mo, who was standing next to him, always had a confident smile on his face.
He knew very well that a mere 800 meters was just an appetizer for the electromagnetic pulse rifle.
And next was the challenging 1000-meter test.
This distance was beyond the shooting range of the automatic rifle.
If you want to hit an object 1000 meters away, you need to use a sniper rifle with a 6x scope.
And as the distance increases, external factors such as wind speed and temperature will interfere with the trajectory.
But since the electromagnetic pulse rifle has no bullets, it will not be affected by this.
The dark blue The beam was still as fast as lightning, instantly hitting the fixed target 1000 meters away, and leaving a big hole.
As the test progressed, the shooting distance was constantly increasing.
Soon it increased from 1000 meters to a terrifying 2000 meters!
At this distance, even the large-caliber heavy sniper rifle Barrett could only barely hit it.
But the next second!
A big hole instantly appeared on the target 2000 meters away!
Seeing this, everyone at the scene couldn’t help but take a breath again!
Seeing that it was too slow to increase the shooting distance little by little, Su Mo said directly:
“Put on a 40x super high-power scope and shoot a 5000-meter fixed target.”
As soon as Su Mo finished speaking, the pupils of Chief Zhao and Political Commissar Lei suddenly shrank.
“What? 5000-meter range?”
“Su kid, are you kidding?! ”
The two of them reacted so strongly that they even suspected that they had heard it wrong.
It is because the current record for the longest range in the world is only 3540 meters, and the anti-material heavy sniper rifle used is Milan TAC50.
The barrel of this heavy sniper rifle is 1.5 meters long, and Barrett can only be regarded as a younger brother in front of it.
And the recoil is also very terrifying. If the operation is not done properly, the shoulder blade can be directly shattered!
For ordinary people who have not received professional training, the wrist and arm can be comminuted by the recoil of this gun!
