Chapter 126: The Department of Defense’s Thanks to Raymond!

“Is the data normal?”

“Is there any change in the process?”

Raymond’s brows were tightly knitted, and sweat was already appearing on his forehead.

All the researchers were busy.

“There’s no problem with the process. The hardness test passed!”

“The equipment is normal!”

“The new titanium alloy composite material is simulating normal pressure!”

“The simulated underwater depth is 600 meters, and the material appears to be slightly broken.”

The researchers kept feeding back the data.

Hearing this, Raymond nodded in satisfaction. “Continue to increase the underwater depth!”

The simulated underwater depth of 600 meters was still very different from the actual depth.

After all, the material used in the simulation could only be a small piece or a small area.

After the nuclear submarine entered the water, the situation it would face would be much more complicated than the situation in the simulation.

The simulation was just a reference value.

To get the real value, it had to depend on the real situation.

At this moment, the researcher continued to operate,

A moment later, the new titanium alloy composite used in the simulation in the instrument immediately broke.

The researcher looked at the data in shock and raised his head. His face was filled with shock.

“General Raymond, the simulation is 680 meters underwater. The material has broken!”

Raymond and Professor Thorpe stared and exclaimed in unison, “Really!?”

The simulation was 680 meters underwater. This was a very important breakthrough! Although it was 680 meters in the simulation, in the actual situation, as long as it could break through the 500 mark…

It could let the United States nuclear submarine diving depth compare to the international top nuclear submarines!

“Yes!” The researcher nodded heavily.

“We did it! General Raymond! We did it!” Professor Thorpe shouted excitedly, clutching Raymond’s hands tightly.

With a shout from Professor Thorpe…

One kind of researcher inside the research institute all reveled.

“We’ve succeeded! We’ve finally succeeded!”

“That’s great!”

“Wu! Wu! Wu! Wu! We, we’ve succeeded!”

Some of the researchers couldn’t stop their tears from flowing down, but they were all tears of excitement.

One after another, excited shouts sounded.

One after another, excited faces appeared in the laboratory.

Raymond swept his gaze across the people in the research institute. The corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a rare bright smile.

He had succeeded, he had finally succeeded!

The entire Q-Series second-generation offensive nuclear submarine had taken one and a half months to develop!

Now, only everyone’s results were left to be assembled on the nuclear submarine to carry out the final test of the water!

“Congratulations, General Raymond. The entire scientific research project has been successfully completed!”

The Secretary of Homeland Security and Secretary of Defense hurried over, excitedly holding Raymond’s hand.

“It’s done, General Raymond, we’ve done it!”

Professor Hoppes couldn’t hide his excitement.

Seeing this scene, Raymond’s excitement couldn’t be described with words.

The Secretary of Homeland Security took a few steps back with a serious expression. He said excitedly, “Professor Raymond, thank you for your efforts all this time. On behalf of all the scientific research staff, I would like to express our highest gratitude to you!”

“Thank you, General Raymond!”

“General Raymond!”

At this moment, Raymond attracted the attention of everyone present and became the center of attention.

Feeling the arrival of these gazes… Raymond smiled faintly. “Today’s achievements in the scientific research project are not only due to my efforts alone, but also the efforts of everyone present here. I would also like to thank everyone here. Thank you for trusting me so much and for everyone’s hard work. Thank you, everyone.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a smile appeared on the faces of the researchers, and the fatigue on their faces instantly disappeared.

Then, after a short exchange, the researchers of the new titanium alloy composite material laboratory continued to work on the research.

The experiment was already completed.

Next was to develop the shell structure of their research results, the Q-Series second-generation offensive nuclear submarine!

…

Three days later.

The new titanium alloy composite material had been completely developed, and the equipment work had been completed.

On this day.

Inside Raymond’s research institute.

The Navy Commander, the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Secretary of Defense, and a type of military personnel.

Professor Thorpe, Professor Hoppes, and the old scientists involved in the whole project were all gathered in the hall.

Naturally, Raymond was among them.

In front of them, there was a large screen.

The screen was divided into two halves.

On one screen, there was a meeting room for the higher-ups and generals.

On the other screen, there was a brand new Q-Series second-generation offensive nuclear submarine that was glowing with silver light. It was now renamed Q-01 Nuclear Submarine!

Today would be the test of the Q-01.

“General Raymond, Professor Thorpe, Professor Hoppes, and all scientists and researchers, on behalf of the national security of the United States, I would like to thank you for your hard work all this time!”

The Secretary of Homeland Security stood up. With a serious expression and a look of astonishment, he raised his hand and saluted respectfully.

The officers were the same. They stood up straight and looked at the many researchers in the hall of the research institute, saluting them.

“It’s our mission to show up for the scientific research of the United States!” Raymond immediately said when he saw this.

…

“General Raymond, can we start the water test now?”

At this moment, a voice appeared on another screen. It was the President’s video screen.

The President’s eyes were filled with anticipation. He was very optimistic about the water test this time.

Once this test was successful, it would be a qualitative leap for the U.S. nuclear submarine!

Moreover, it had only taken less than two months. Putting aside whether this test would be successful, just the overall development speed alone was several times faster than other countries!

This speed of scientific research could even be said to be impossible in the entire world!

At this moment, Raymond said, “Yes, President!”

The last time the nuclear submarine exploded underwater, it left a deep impression in everyone’s hearts.

Therefore, this time, the test was to use an unmanned nuclear submarine to dive.

All the preparations had been completed.

Apart from Raymond and Professor Thorpe, a group of scientists sat in the stands, staring at the big screen with smiles on their faces.

At this time, Professor Thorpe looked at Raymond and said with a smile, “General Raymond, this time, you will be in charge of the entire testing process.”

Raymond did not refuse and nodded.

“Is the data normal?”

“Everything is normal. The testing can begin!”

The staff quickly replied.

Raymond’s expression became serious. “The testing can begin!”

As soon as he finished speaking, all the staff members in the command room began to operate and transmit the orders.

Immediately after, on the screen, the Q-01 nuclear submarine that everyone was looking forward to slowly moved and headed towards the surface of the water not far away!

Everyone’s eyes were filled with anticipation as they stared at the screen. They were focused. They did not want to miss this scene for even a moment!
