It doesn't even need to look like a warship. For example, just a piece of ice floating on the Arctic Ocean, plus the power system, and flattening it, it will be a good aircraft carrier platform.

The United States does not lack aircraft, and the current P-51 Mustang is also being manufactured on a large scale. What the United States lacks is aircraft carriers, which is a necessary platform for naval warfare.

However, ideals are full and reality is cruel.

Although ice cubes have the advantages and disadvantages just now, they are also very obvious, and the intensity of ice cubes is not high.

The climatic conditions on the Atlantic Ocean are very harsh. The ice cubes will be knocked down by a wave at any time, turning into two halves, then three halves and four halves, so it is impossible to use it to make aircraft carriers.

Roosevelt gave up, but Jeffrey did not. Now, he came to report to President Roosevelt, and of course he found a solution to the problem.

To increase the strength of the ice cube, you need to change the internal structure of the ice cube.

Following Jeffrey are two famous American scientists, Walter Hornstein and Hermann Mark.

"Mr. President, after our research, we found that the ice made by adding cotton and fiber to fresh water has good mechanical properties and high strength, which fully meets the construction needs of aircraft carriers." Walter said: "We can ensure that it can withstand the wind and waves of the Atlantic Ocean."

"How do you prove it?" asked President Roosevelt.

His eyes were placed on a wooden box brought by the other party. At this time, Hermann was slowly opening the wooden box. The box was covered with layers of quilts. When it was opened, you could see white air coming out from it.

In fact, it does not appear inside, but because it is cold inside, so when it is opened, the air outside is liquefied to form white air, which is the same as the white air breathed out in winter.

When they were all opened, two ice cubes were exposed inside, one of which was ordinary ice, clear and transparent, while the other was a frozen turbid substance, which looked a bit like frozen cheese.

"We can do an experiment on the spot to forgive us for being rude. Can you ask your guard to shoot at it?" Jeffrey asked.

If you want to prove whether something is hard or not, shooting it is the easiest way.

"Okay, let's go to the garden outside," said Roosevelt.

It is inappropriate to shoot here.

So, Jeffrey pushed Roosevelt, Walter and Hermann in the wheelchair each with a piece of ice, left the room and came to the open space outside the garden.

Their actions attracted the attention of many people. When they came to the garden, Marshall and others also came to see them.

"It's not possible to use a pistol, change to a rifle." Marshall shouted to the captain of the guard with a cigarette in his mouth.

So, Roosevelt's guard captain changed into a standard rifle and stood about fifty meters away from the ice, ready to shoot.

Roosevelt was also looking at the expectant eyes in his wheelchair. The small ice cube held too much hope.

"Bang!" The gunshot sounded, and as the gunshot sounded, a bullet spun and hit the small ice cube. Then, the ice cubes immediately scattered and splashed everywhere.

The crystal clear ice turned into broken ice chips and bloomed a beautiful little flower.

This is an ordinary ice cube, without any mechanical strength, and it almost breaks at a touch.

The captain of the guard slowly turned the muzzle and aimed at the second piece, which was the main thing. Everyone's eyes were staring at the ice cube of the same size and thickness, staring at the turbid ice cube of the inside because of impurities.

"Bang!" The second gunshot sounded, and when flames popped out of the muzzle, the bullets also flew onto the ice.

I saw the ice cube being pushed back for a while, and at the same time, the bullet was actually bouncing away.

This thing is actually harder than steel, and it actually bounced the bullet away!

"Oh!" At this time, Marshall roared loudly, and he lowered his head nervously, and his military cap had already flown aside.

After the bullet was bounced away just now, it rushed towards him. The wise Marshall and the important staff member of Roosevelt almost went to see God in advance because of this accident.

Marshall retracted his head, and was really scared. Just now, bullets hit his hat and also brought a lot of impact to his head. Sweat was whizzing out from his back.

However, when he saw everyone looking at him, Marshall immediately calmed down. He could not be embarrassed in front of so many people!

So Marshall bent down, picked up his hat, patted the dirt, and put it on his head again, but two bullet holes were left on it, which looked very funny.

Marshall strode forward and came to the front of the ice to divert everyone's attention. It's better to focus on key projects.

"Well, this ice cube is really hard." Marshall looked at the front of the ice cube, and left a shallow pit under the impact of the bullet. It can even be said that the pit was not hit, but the heat generated by the impact of the bullet should have melted.

This strength is definitely high enough, and it is no less than steel plates of the same thickness.

"We put special cotton and fibers in it, but we have done other experiments. If we want to further reduce the cost, we can add it with the most ordinary sawdust. Just build it in cold areas and freeze it for one night." Jeffrey said it very easily. From then on, the United States no longer has to worry about insufficient warships. They have the simplest and most cost-effective solution.

"Let's go, let's go to the office and say." Roosevelt's eyes were no longer as excited as before. At this time, his brows frowned, as if he had thought of something.

Sure enough, when he returned to the office, Roosevelt spoke again: "Our first problem has been overcome. The ice has enough strength to be used as a material for building aircraft carriers. However, we still have new problems. It needs to melt when the temperature is high. How can we overcome this problem?"

Built in cold areas, you don’t have to think about how to freeze it into ice. For example, in Canada, there are many cold lakes, where you can make it by directly using local fresh water.

However, it does not only fight in high-altitude areas, it will fight in the Atlantic Ocean. How to ensure that such warships do not melt under the sun?

If a huge fleet goes on a war and melts in the middle, it will definitely become a joke for the whole world.
