SpacingOutMan Posted August 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Project Update(s) Ceramic Armor Basic theory and viability has been set aside as easily produced. Due to such a quick finding, the government has granted the MRDC 640 million Mechas in order to pursue advances into body armor in general. This money has been thankfully budgeted, with a small percentage being locked away for future projects. However, as the research has become broadened, testing will take a longer time than expected. Therefore this technology has advanced to stage 1 testing with an approximate completion rate of 18%. Nanosolar Technology Scientists have sampled various methods of attaining solar energy and have come down to several conclusions, all of which are scientifically viable and possible. However, through precedence and mechanical theory, researchers have found that crystalline silicon solar cells are the best course of action. Therefore the government has granted the MRDC 450 million Mechas to begin testing crystalline silicon solar cells. Therefore this technology has advanced to stage 3 testing with an approximate completion rate of 48%. Tidal Energy Technologies With the varying tides, scientists have formulate various models in order to produce viable theories for different systems. At the current moment, however, the government is likely skeptical about the efficiency of such a system and is currently discussing within itself the possibility of pursuit in this field. Therefore this technology has advanced to step 2: grant acquisition. It has an approximate completion rate of 10%. Space & Universal Technologies Due to the broad nature of this research project, scientists have narrowed it down to an extensive array of highly efficient satellites that would be deployed into orbit. Such highly anticipated system, however, has yet to be agreed upon by scientists. Therefore this technology remains at step 1, with an approximate completion rate of 3%. Extensive BattleNet System With the growing needs of the military, several systems have been formulated to conduct extremely intricate coordinate within the military to increase overall efficiency. Due to the utmost importance of improved military cooperation, the MRDC has received a grant of 810 million Mechas to fund such a project. Therefore this technology has advanced to stage 1 testing at an approximate completion rate of 17%. Heavy Bomber Models In light of the recent Nodic war, the FB-22 light bomber and the X-47 Pegasus proved to be insufficient to the military's needs. Scientists have relayed several ideas that prove to be very viable, and because of such a military deficiency, the MRDC has received a grant of 380 million Mechas to perform extensive research and testing. Therefore this technology has advanced to stage 1 testing at an approximate completion rate of 15%. Wide-Ranged Extensive Missile Defense System Several wide-ranged systems have come into play amongst scientists that prove to be extremely efficient. With the current missile defense systems in place, improvements are imperative at this point. As such, the MRDC has received a grant of 600 million Mechas to further the research and development of such a system which includes, but is not limited to, missile coordination, defensive shield, and BattleNet systems once available. Therefore this technology has advanced to stage 1 testing at an approximate completion rate of 16%. Electromagnetic Weaponry The modern day weapons simply are not capable in keeping up with new generation weaponry possessed by other first world nations, such as the Rail Gun. As such, projectile weapons and any other weaponry utilizing electromagnetic forces have been fundamentally proven viable by scientists and researchers. As such, the MRDC has received a grant of 550 million Mechas. Therefore this technology has advanced to stage 1 testing at an approximate completion rate of 12%.

SpacingOutMan Posted August 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Project Update(s) BattleNet Sytem The current system utilized by the UMS military coordinates between ground control grenadiers and aerial/artillery units. Accuracy, however, is solely dependent on the accuracy of human success, which proves to have a margin of error of approximately 13%. A new system has shone brightly over its three major competitors and extensively covers all major gaps. It offers stream line coordination operative options, allowing increased accuracy with GPS modifiers on ground airburst systems supplied by grenadiers. It will also decrease time delay from .07 seconds to .04 seconds, along with large memory caches exerting less stress on operating hard drives. Communication systems would also be increased in larger integrated ranges, along with a tidbit of other improvements. Therefore this technology has advanced to stage 3 testing at an approximate completion rate of 57%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpacingOutMan Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Project Update(s) General Body Armor The project has finally surpassed several 'hindrances' and has been specifically narrowed down to a material derived from carbon nanotubes, and has achieved theoretical levels of attributes specific to Level 4 body protection. This system utilizes a combination of ceramic materials and carbon fiber technologies to be applicable in blocking typical automatic rifle bursts and other medium caliber bullets. With Level 4 capacity, the armor is already capable of blocking .30 caliber bullets to a certain extent. It is the goal, however, to be able to block at least a single .50 caliber sniper bullet from a high muzzle velocity sniper rifle. Therefore this technology has reached stage 3 testing with an approximate completion rate of 68%. Electromagnetic Weaponry There have been three efficient weapon systems utilized in this research: EMP pulsation, Gauss weaponry, and rail gun weaponry. As such, this project has been branched into three sub branches. For EMP pulsation, research into High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulses will be utilized for possible air application over any combative regions. Therefore these technologies have reached stage 3 testing with an approximate completion rate of 70%. Heavy Bomber Model Great strides have been seen in this research and a definitive model for a man-handled heavy bomber model has been reached. It is similar to the Tupolev Tu-160, however adding on some comparative advantages that increase its overall efficiency and aerial strengths. With the currently model, it can reach speeds up to Mach 2.75 at high altitudes and an extended range of 13,000 km. To limit drag, however, the overall height (from base to top) has been shortened for more steam line aerodynamics. It also has a defensive stealth array, capable of defending against enemy RADAR and other defensive systems. This model also includes electronic warfare weaponry capable of stand-off jamming and extensive ECM potential. Therefore this technology has reached stage 5 testing at an approximate completion rate of 91%. Sophisticated Satellite System This project has been merged into the Extensive BattleNet system due to overlapping applications. Therefore this technology has been cut off from grant money and is removed from testing schedules. Extensive BattleNet System With smoother advances with the incoming Sophisticated Satellite System scientists, greater strides have been made over a shorter period of time. Applicable communication between all branches of military are now available, along with mechanical and computerized automation for UAV aircraft and targeting systems for the new heavy bomber models are already foreseen! Therefore this technology has reached stage 5 tests at an approximate completion rate of 89%. Wide-Ranged Extensive Missile Defense System A formidable technology array has been made, though a strategic defensive array against high velocity missiles are still being worked on. Therefore this technology has reached stage 2 testing at an approximate completion rate of 38%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpacingOutMan Posted August 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Project Update(s) General Body Armor The body armor tested utilizing carbon fibers and ceramic applications have proven to be a major success and have been able to block roughly THREE .30 caliber shots from a traditional sniper rifle. In the .50 caliber test, the body armor managed to block a single shot from a .50 caliber sniper rifle, and approximately FOUR shots from a fully automatic machine gun at approximate 800 meters. This is due to the lower muzzle velocity of traditional heavy machine guns and aren't powered by the same locomotive properties. The government has shown an expressed interest and are ready to conduct the official economic testing. The armor, however, has been noted to be a tad cumbersome but not overbearing. Therefore this technology has reached stage 5 testing at an approximate completion rate of 92%. Electromagnetic Weaponry Successful tests of a rail gun from both naval and land placement have proven to be extremely accurate and effective. The rounds were fired off at around 2,829 m/s with an energy of 11.67 MJ. It fired at an approximate muzzle velocity of 5.9 kilometers per second and can shoot around 11 shots per minute. The range application is roughly 260 nautical miles with a percent error of .03%. As for the coil gun technology, there was similar yielded results. Therefore this technology has reached stage 5 testing at an approximate completion rate of 94%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
