Competition, or trial.
that two or more weapons manufacturing companies (organisations) perform performance tests betting on the official recruitment of the military;
For example, a Lockheed Martin F-22 fighter and a Northrop F-23 fighter who fought over the seat of the U.S. Air Force's next major fighter.
So, how do we evaluate two or more weapons with different characteristics?
There are two main ways.
One is simply a way to make two weapons battle one-on-one.
It's very easy to understand and muscular that winning is more formal hiring.
But this method has the disadvantage that the results are changed by the skill of the person who manipulates the weapon - in the case of a fighter - the pilot.
Another way is to evaluate performance from a variety of perspectives.
Continuing to be an example of a fighter, such as mountable weapons, weapon loads, combat action radii, cruise speeds, maximum speeds, practical lift limits, etc.
On the soldier-stationary side, how often do you malfunction, how easy are parts to procure, how easy are they to maintain, how much hassle (when people) does it take to service, etc.
This means that weapons are evaluated and scored from a variety of perspectives, such as battle, barracks, and sometimes political aspects, and higher-overall scores are recruited.
In modern times it is mostly evaluated by the latter method.
Taking the former method is often employed in a world such as animation because of its good picture surface.
Look, if the protagonists and heroines were fighting each other, it would burn so bad, wouldn't it?
So, I decide to take the latter method in this trial.
That is most realistic, because we can see weapons multilaterally, and because the two weapons that fight this time cannot be battled one-on-one because of the characteristics of their mission.
But perhaps the biggest reason was because the weapons prototyped by the Missaca Design Authority were too rare for me to realize yet.
It was supposed to be something to check before the trial, but there was a reason I couldn't do that.
Because...
"Now let's start the First Demon King Army Next Main Weapon Comparison Performance Assessment Test!
"" "" "Whoa, whoa, whoa!!" ""
"I'm in charge of the MC, Yurier, the out-of-court officer at the barracks station! Are you guys ready?!?"
"" "" "OOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" ""
"Ok, ok!
Because the trial was sometime turned into a major event sponsored by the Bureau of Military Stations.
The evaluation test site was packed with residents of the Devil's Capital going up to 10,000 units of where it had sprung from.
"- How did this happen!
How many times have I shouted like this since I came to this world?

Retrospective, ten days ago.
The "Misaka Design Bureau", founded under the leadership of Yayoi Misaka, said it had succeeded in developing weapons for Demon King military use only a few days after the foundation design, even though there had been no inter-establishment.
At that point, it was not possible to perform a full force test yet, but there was a communication that it wanted to conduct a performance evaluation test combined with a full force test.
So I suggested a trial, and I told Leona from the IGAD about it.
"Why not! Why did you become a competitor?"
"Because neither the Combat Corps nor the Station Bureau have made any requests regarding the development of weapons. I'm making my first request here right now."
"That's the story on the paper, right?!?"
"This world is important to talk about on paper."
What, it is common for there to be some discrepancy between headquarters and the field, resulting in jet lag.
It is also the job of our station to improve such things (bar reading).
"Akira, you liar! I thought you said you'd officially hire me!
I said, "If the improvement goes ahead, mass production will start, but I didn't say I would definitely officially adopt it."
"It's hardly like I said!
"When the improvements go on in due course, I'm really going to hire you, right?
The last performance evaluation test of the prototype demon statue was rated "Better than conventional".
The relative rating just went up because the comparator was so snug first.
So if the Missaca Design Authority's new weapon performs well compared to the IGAD prototype demon statue, it employs the Design Authority's weapon to kick the prototype demon statue.
There's no reason not to do that.
"Ugh... but it's not Junken after that! It's sloppy!
"I don't know how that feels, but from now on, we'll just have to develop it after we get a proper request. That would be fair."
Well, of course, Leona has room for (I don't want to admit to) the extenuating circumstance, so I'll take that into account.
You think you can score (handles) in advance?
But still, Leona doesn't seem convinced.
It feels like I would be in trouble if the demonic statue I created, like my beloved daughter, were not adopted on the verge.
If this happens, it is the last resort part 2.
"Or are you not sure you can beat the new weapons from the Missaca Design Bureau? Leona Kalzette and Araud, who pride themselves on having the best technical skills in the Demon King's Army, are wasting their time here thinking they're going to lose to the young lady who popped out?
"You can't be! You know, there's no way I'm a genius to lose to a kid who doesn't seem to live 20% more than half of my life!?"
No, I don't think it's 20%. He's an animal.
"But Leona, I do now -"
"Aya the Word!
Aside from the triviality that it's "weird" not Aya.
"Well, I'll be doing another performance evaluation test in ten days. Performance comparison evaluation test, to be exact. No problem, right?
"There can't be! If you had my demonic statue, you'd crush that kid's toy to the atomic level!
"Hmm. I'm counting on you."
All right, we got an agreement between the two sides. All you have to do is wait for the exam.
"Oh, and Akira. What happened to the nomenclature?
…………
"Hey!? Threaten me, you're not gonna tell me you forgot or anything!?"
"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm still considering it."
Yeah, I'm considering it. Really. Trust me.
Because cells are having a heated argument with each other in the corner of my head. Uh, I figured it was a person's name in due course. Ha-ha-ha.
"Hurry up!
Yes, excuse me.

That's why it's time to talk to His Majesty the Demon King Hell Arche for a while.
"I see, the naming convention? That's certainly a heartbreaking topic, Akira."
"Yes, but I thought I'd let His Majesty decide what to do because if I let Leona say, 'I don't have any taste'"
"Don't worry about me."
"Your Majesty is fine."
Because the rules that everyone agrees with are easy to understand and quick to talk about when you say, "Everyone trusts and everyone makes a decision to pledge allegiance."
My God, I can't even tell you how torn my mouth is and I desperately try not to be read my mind.
"But I don't have a sense of naming either. I think it's best to learn first... how about that?
"No, not in the Demon King's Army when I say first..."
"I'm not talking about our world."
That's what I said, Your Majesty pointed to me.
Oh, you know what? I mean, you're probably listening to the naming rules on Earth.
It's different from country to country and from weapon to weapon, and sometimes like this militia, "nobody uses an nickname". I don't know everything either.
So I gave a typical example.
People names, place names, tribe names, organization names, country names, animal names, etc. Anyway, a lot of things.
Explain that one by one, and then wait for His Majesty's opinion.
"Let's not use names."
His Majesty was the first to say so.
"If the weapon is so useless, I'm sorry for him."
"... I see"
Apparently the monarch of some country said the same thing, but His Majesty was the mouth of it.
"I don't know if you like place names very much either. It could be disrespectful to those who live in the land, just like the names of men."
Tribe (race) names, organization names and country names were, of course, excluded for similar reasons.
Even if it's an animal name, for example, the werewolves would be saddened if they saw a failure named Wolf.
One candidate at a time disappeared like that, and the last thing left was the "name of the natural phenomenon" and the "name of the plant".
Speaking on Earth, the former is a Japanese destroyer, such as a pyrotechnic destroyer, and the latter is some weapons, such as a flower-grade corvette.
"Even if it's futile, it's not so much a problem, is it?"
"Well. Every race has its own iconic flowers and phenomena."
"Shall I exclude that individually?"
As a result of that discussion between His Majesty and the two of us, the rules for naming demonic statues were decided on the "symbol representing the type of demonic statue + the second digit of the year of adoption + the name of the natural phenomenon".
As far as weapons other than demonic statues are concerned, I am glad that the naming rules for weapons that will be boring have been successfully decided.
"But why did we suddenly talk about naming rules? Nothing. You can let Lord Leona decide what she wants, and if you don't like it, the Barracks can name it after you."
Whoa, with that said, I missed my report to Your Majesty. You weren't talking about the trial at all.
That explains it.
His Majesty Hell Arche, who is probably a jerk, honestly accepted my metaphor and did not pursue it.
Angry, just one thing.
"I can't believe Akira didn't call me to such an interesting event,"
"I'm sorry I didn't like it"
No, it's not an event.
What you do is a plain performance assessment test. Nothing notable. Strongly speaking, it means Lori will have the first weapon she's ever built.
"I'm also greatly interested in the rumored weapon of a genius girl. I'd love to see it."
"… So will Your Majesty also see the exam?
So the trivial desire not to say "yeah" was smashed, naturally.
… we need to prepare for an acceptance attitude.
