126: Superweapons and future technology

Superweapon: Satellite Launch Center

Cost: 10,000 Gold. Area: Requires 10,000 square meters.

> 1. Spy Satellite - 50,000 Gold per unit

Function: After launch, you can choose to monitor the Asia-Pacific region, the Europe-Africa region, or the America-Australia region (covering approximately one-third of the Earth's surface).

Effect: Provides near real-time, ultra-high-resolution global monitoring footage (for the selected area). Equipped with powerful reconnaissance capabilities such as infrared, spectral analysis, and signal interception. A divine tool for battlefield situational awareness!

> 2. Gap Generator - 40,000 Gold per unit

Function: Upon deployment, it generates a special force field covering an area of up to 100,000 square kilometers. Effects:

Potent Anti-Radar/Anti-Satellite: Makes all units within the area invisible to enemy Radar and satellite detection.

Fog of War: When non-Red Alert units or unauthorized friendly units enter the area, their visual range (including naked eye and optical equipment) is reduced by 50%, as if trapped in a dense fog.

Signal Jamming: Effectively severs missile guidance signals and communication signals entering the area, turning enemies into the "blind" and "deaf."

"This... is this a superweapon? It's too strong!" Jiang Xin sucked in a breath of cold air. Imagining the scene of the entire Lujiang or even Xijiang Province shrouded under a "Gap," a sense of security welled up within him.

Air Force Units:

> apollo aerospace fighter - 20,000 Gold per unit. The entire aircraft is built using lightweight starship-grade composite materials, offering high strength, low weight, and exceptional performance. Built-in Red Alert advanced intelligent AI fire control/flight assistance system. Powered by a nuclear fusion reactor, it can also efficiently absorb solar energy for charging.

The apollo aerospace fighter features a gravity engine, allowing it to ignore gravitational constraints for vertical takeoff and landing, hovering, and super-maneuverability as easily as moving one's arm. High-energy particle propulsion engines grant it hypersonic cruise and combat capabilities of Mach 5-10, reaching Mach 20+ in the vacuum of space! Total crew of 4. The spacious cabin can carry 30 fully armed soldiers and their equipment, and includes a lounge area and a miniature bathroom system to ensure comfort during long-duration missions—a true small aerial fortress.

Secondary Weapon - Equipped with the "Helios" 30mm Electromagnetic Railgun: Accelerates projectiles using electromagnetic force, with a muzzle velocity far exceeding traditional gunpowder weapons. Carries 2,000 rounds. Its terrifying kinetic energy provides unparalleled armor-piercing capabilities, crushing ordinary armored targets and buildings.

Main Weapon - Plasma Beam Cannon: Fires a continuous stream of ultra-high-temperature, high-energy plasma. Wherever the beam touches, even starship-grade armor will melt and be punctured! It possesses absolute destructive effects against conventional ground and air targets! Each firing consumes 1/6th of the reactor's fuel reserves.

Range: A full load of nuclear fuel supports intercontinental or space cruise missions of up to 60,000 kilometers.

"This... this is completely alien technology! Existing fighter jets on Earth are just trash in front of it!" Jiang Xin looked at the futuristic virtual model of the apollo and its terrifying weapon parameters, his heart itching with anticipation.

> peacekeeper bomber - 6,000 Gold per unit

An advanced large subsonic stealth strategic bomber (inspired by the American B-2 Spirit). Performance: Features a flying wing layout and advanced Radar-absorbent materials, resulting in an extremely small Radar cross-section. Equipped with 4 high-thrust turbofan engines. It has a massive internal bomb bay capable of carrying a total of 50 tons of various munitions (satellite-guided bombs, cruise missiles, bunker busters, cluster bombs, ordinary aerial bombs, etc.). Maximum range of 7,000 kilometers, with intercontinental strike capabilities. Crew of 2 (pilot and co-pilot).

> Nightinggale Transport - 5,000 Gold per unit

A large strategic/tactical transport aircraft. Wide-body design with high-thrust turbofan engines. Maximum payload of 72 tons, capable of transporting tanks, armored vehicles, or large quantities of personnel and supplies. Maximum range of 8,000 kilometers, meeting trans-intercontinental deployment needs. Equipped with one 20mm six-barrel rotary cannon with 1,000 rounds for low-altitude self-defense. Crew of 2.

"These bombers and transports are also at the level of Blue Star's top-tier aircraft!" Jiang Xin nodded with satisfaction. The Peacekeeper and Nightingale would greatly enhance his strategic deployment and long-range strike capabilities.

Naval Units (Requires Shipyard construction first - 4,000 Gold). Available units:

> Boreas Amphibious Assault Landing Ship - 6,000 Gold per ship. A multi-functional amphibious combat platform. Armament includes 2 single-barrel 150mm naval guns and 4 universal vertical launch systems, which can be loaded with a mix of medium-range anti-air, anti-ship, or anti-submarine missiles, totaling 20 rounds. Features a full-length flight deck capable of carrying 2 helicopters (not included). The hold can accommodate hovercraft or amphibious combat vehicles. Can carry 200 fully armed marines and their equipment for landing operations. Crew: 40.

> Aegis-class Cruiser - 35,000 Gold per ship.

A cutting-edge, all-purpose cruiser for anti-air, anti-missile, anti-ship, and land-attack missions (performance based on Blue Star's top cruisers, essentially a large destroyer). Displacement of 25,000 tons, equipped with 2 single-barrel 200mm stealth naval guns (long range, high precision). 18 sets of eight-cell universal vertical launch systems, totaling 144 launch cells, which can flexibly load long-range anti-air missiles, supersonic anti-ship missiles, land-attack cruise missiles, anti-submarine missiles, and anti-ballistic missile interceptors, with a total capacity of 210 missiles. 2 triple-tube 324mm torpedo launchers equipped with advanced heavy anti-submarine/anti-ship torpedoes, carrying 24 rounds.

2 sets of 11-barrel 30mm Phalanx Close-In Weapon Systems (CIWS) with extremely high firing rates, forming a dense curtain of fire to intercept anti-ship missiles and aircraft. Features the Red Alert Intelligent Combat System: integrates four large S-band and two X-band phased array Radars, an integrated electronic warfare system, towed array sonar, and satellite communications/data links. Possesses powerful regional air and missile defense, over-the-horizon anti-ship, precision land-attack, and anti-submarine capabilities. Crew: 200. Excellent ocean seaworthiness and sustained combat capability.

"A fortress at sea!" Jiang Xin looked at the majestic model of the Aegis-class and its terrifying armament list, his heart racing. Although there weren't many opportunities to use a navy now, it would be an indispensable pillar for venturing into the deep blue in the future.

Army Units:

> apocalypse tank - 4,000 Gold per unit. Red Alert future technology, the king of land warfare. Features lightweight high-strength composite armor (nano-ceramics + depleted uranium interlayer + electromagnetic reactive armor), with defensive power far exceeding modern main battle tanks.

Main armament consists of a twin-barrel 155mm smoothbore turret! It can fire high-explosive shells, HEAT rounds, etc., with wide fire coverage and devastating destructive effects. The top of the turret is also equipped with a 12.7mm automatic machine gun. The apocalypse tank has a powerful miniature nuclear-powered high-output engine, giving this behemoth startling high-speed breakthrough capabilities (speeds comparable to a car on a highway) and excellent off-road performance. Equipped with Red Alert intelligent fire control and driving assistance AI, greatly improving combat efficiency. Total crew of 4.

> tesla tank - 3,000 Gold. Equipped with a miniature nuclear power device and bionic high-density energy storage batteries, providing a lasting and powerful electrical reserve. The weapon is a large high-energy current cannon atop the tank! It can fire ultra-high-voltage arcs or concentrated current spheres across hundreds of meters, with powerful destructive effects on armored targets, infantry clusters, and electronic equipment. It has a fast rate of fire and no physical ammunition limitations.

Jiang Xin took a deep breath, calming his excitement. The dazzling array of cutting-edge equipment on the system panel, especially the sci-fi-like apollo fighter and the strategically significant Gap Generator, allowed him to see an unprecedented future full of infinite possibilities. The Red Alert Legion would truly become the undisputed king of this post-apocalyptic wasteland!
