87: Chapter 87 Unlocks Anti-Tank Missiles and Drones

Tianlei Type VII Anti-Aircraft Missile:

Mainly used for defending against various medium-range and long-range targets such as fighter jets, UAVs, and anti-ship cruise missiles.

Minimum operational range is 500 meters, with a maximum range of 240 kilometers.

Maximum flight ceiling is 32,000 meters, and the maximum speed reaches Mach 15.

The missile's warhead weighs 500 kilograms, with a launch weight of 1,200 kilograms.

The system is priced at 2.5 million yuan per set, including 700,000 yuan for the launcher and 1.8 million yuan for the missile.

The Tianlei Type VII Anti-Aircraft Missile has a longer interception range than the Tianlei Type VI Anti-Aircraft Missile and even possesses strong anti-ship combat capabilities.

Tianlei Type VIII Anti-Aircraft Missile:

Mainly used for all-altitude defense from ultra-low to high altitudes and from short to ultra-long ranges against various fighter jets, tactical missiles, and ballistic missiles.

Minimum operational range is 500 meters, with a maximum range of 300 kilometers.

Maximum flight ceiling is 35,000 meters, and the maximum speed reaches Mach 17.

The missile's warhead weighs 650 kilograms, with a launch weight of 1,500 kilograms.

The system is priced at 3.2 million yuan per set, including 800,000 yuan for the launcher and 2.4 million yuan for the missile.

The Tianlei Type VIII Anti-Aircraft Missile can intercept medium-to-long-range ballistic missiles, as well as medium-to-high-altitude fighter jets and cruise missiles, and can even serve as a strategic ballistic missile defense.

These two newly unlocked Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missiles further increase the operational range and enhance defensive capabilities across long, medium, and short ranges, as well as high, medium, and low altitudes, forming a powerful air defense backbone to counter the enemy's improved air strike capabilities.

Li Yi felt that by utilizing their hypersonic speeds, these two Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missiles could basically leave any incoming target within range with no chance of escape.

At the same time, two types of anti-tank missiles were unlocked.

The first model is the Tianjian Type I Anti-Tank Missile.

It is a man-portable anti-tank missile with a total weight of 20 kilograms, a launch tube length of 108 centimeters, and a diameter of 135 millimeters.

The missile body weighs 10.5 kilograms, with a maximum armor penetration depth of 750 millimeters.

The maximum speed is 600 meters per second, with an effective range of 2,500 meters and a maximum range of 3,500 meters.

The system is priced at 80,000 yuan per set, with 30,000 yuan for the launcher and 50,000 yuan for the missile.

The Tianjian Type I Anti-Tank Missile can deal with main battle tank armor, strike various bunkers, and operate in all weather conditions.

The second model is the Tianjian Type II Anti-Tank Missile.

It is also a man-portable anti-tank missile with a total weight of 22.5 kilograms, a launch tube length of 120 centimeters, and a diameter of 150 millimeters.

The missile body weighs 12 kilograms, with a maximum armor penetration depth of 1,000 millimeters.

The maximum speed is 750 meters per second, with an effective range of 3,000 meters and a maximum range of 4,500 meters.

The system is priced at 120,000 yuan per set, with 40,000 yuan for the launcher and 80,000 yuan for the missile.

The Tianjian Type II Anti-Tank Missile can penetrate 1,000 millimeters of homogeneous armor or explosive reactive armor, and can also strike bunkers, fortifications, and small vessels.

These two anti-tank missiles can operate in all weather and complex conditions, featuring fire-and-forget capability where the missile destroys the target on its own. They are also easy to relocate and can be quickly reloaded to strike the next target.

After reviewing the performance parameters of these two anti-tank missiles, Li Yi felt they should pose a threat to most main battle tanks and could easily handle simple bunkers built by the enemy, showing strong combat capability.

A new UAV has been unlocked: the Sky Dragon Mark I UAV.

It is a reconnaissance-strike integrated UAV with a wingspan of 8 meters, a length of 5.6 meters, a takeoff weight of 650 kilograms, and a maximum payload of 200 kilograms. It can carry 3 air-to-ground missiles or 4 bombs.

The maximum speed is 280 kilometers per hour, the maximum ceiling is 7,500 meters, the cruising altitude is between 3,000 to 5,000 meters, the maximum range is 2,500 kilometers, and the endurance is 15 hours.

The system is priced at 1 million yuan per set, with accompanying air-to-ground missiles at 50,000 yuan each and bombs at 10,000 yuan each.

The Sky Dragon Mark I UAV can fly at low and medium altitudes, serving as both a reconnaissance aircraft and an armed ground-attack platform, making it a multi-purpose UAV.

Li Yi was quite satisfied with this UAV; its flight range is relatively long and its endurance is high, which would be attractive to many countries.

The Multiverse Arms Trading System also unlocked many small arms, armored vehicles, fighter jets, warships, and other equipment this time, but compared to current active-duty equipment, they didn't have a clear advantage.

Li Yi just took a brief look and decided not to consider selling this equipment for the time being.

On one hand, qualified operators for fighter jets and warships cannot be easily trained. If he were to sell them now, Li Yi would not provide follow-up training services for the personnel.

On the other hand, current active-duty equipment is already in use, so it would be somewhat difficult to encourage countries to replace their small arms and armored vehicles.

Li Yi felt it was best to first sell the Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missiles, the Tianjian Series Anti-Tank Missiles, and the Tianlong Series UAVs, and then promote large-scale equipment like fighter jets and warships when conditions allowed.

This would also reduce the attention from countries like the USA and the United Kingdom, making it better to avoid direct confrontation with them for now.

Li Yi had been away from Pengcheng for some time now.

Iran's next oil payment wouldn't be completed in a short amount of time.

It would also take some time for Syria to pay with natural gas and phosphates, and the delivery of the Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missiles to Palestine could be delayed a bit.

Li Yi decided to return to Pengcheng and used the Multiverse Arms Trading System to teleport directly to his luxury mansion at Pengcheng No. 1.

He didn't check out of the presidential suite at the Riviera Hotel either. Since Mannila was paying the bill anyway and it didn't cost much, it was fine to keep it for a while longer.

Not long after returning to Pengcheng No. 1, Li Yi received a phone call.

"President Li, are you home?" It turned out to be Manager Yu from the real estate agency.

"I'm home."

"Finally got through," Li Yi heard a mutter from the other end. Then Manager Yu said, "The property deed is ready. Should I bring it over to you now?"

"Sure. Come over now."

A short while later, another call came for Li Yi.

"President Li, the volkswagen phaeton you purchased has been delivered to the underground garage at the address you provided. Is it alright if I bring all the paperwork for the car to you now?" It was the sales manager from the Volkswagen 4S Dealership.

"Come over."

Li Yi soon received the property deed for Pengcheng No. 1 and the keys to the volkswagen phaeton.

He went down to the underground garage to check on the volkswagen phaeton; it was low-key yet luxurious. After taking it for a couple of laps, he lost interest.

Anyway, Li Yi didn't drive much and had no interest in showing off, so it would likely just sit in the garage and collect dust.
