Zhao Zhongyao began to design the 'gyroscope' thing. This thing looks simple, but it's not as easy to design.

Although the gyroscope is not a complicated instrument, it can be regarded as a very sophisticated instrument, and it is by no means just a small spinning top.

Gyroscope is a kind of mechanical device, its main part is a rotor that rotates the axis of rotation at a very high angular velocity, and the rotor is installed in a bracket; an inner ring frame is added on the central axis of the rotor, then the gyroscope can move freely around the two axes of the plane; then, an outer ring frame is added outside the inner ring frame; this gyroscope has two balance rings, can move freely around the three axes of the plane, is a complete space gyroscope.

Although Zhao Zhongyao was not a military expert before his death, he was also a military enthusiast and knew some knowledge of the military industry.

For something like a gyroscope, he had studied it before. It's easy to design this thing now.

After all, he already had the shape of this thing in his head, and what he had to do now was to draw the image in his brain.

In this way, Zhao Zhongyao spent a day drawing the shape of a space gyroscope he imagined.

With this blueprint, it will naturally be much easier to produce this thing.

In another day, Zhao Zhongyao made the space gyroscope.

At that time, Yan Mingcheng was also watching from the side, and when he saw Zhao Zhongyao making a gadget, he said in surprise: "Is this what you said about 'gyroscope'!"

Zhao Zhongyao took the 'gyroscope' in his hand and played with it and said, "Yes! Why, don't you believe it!"

Yan Mingcheng scratched his head and smiled: "How can you not believe it, I just feel that this thing is too simple! That's it, can it maintain the balance of the missile!"

Zhao Zhongyao glanced at the 'gyroscope' in his hand again and said, "If you can, just try it." ”

Zhao Zhongyao said, and put this small gyroscope into the tail of an experimental missile next to him.

Previously, he had made improvements to the missile's tail so that the little 'gyroscope' had a place to put it.

After everything is done. He said to Yan Mingcheng: "Let's go, we can continue to conduct missile experiments." ”

Yan Mingcheng followed behind Zhao Zhongyao suspiciously.

The two of them walked out of the workshop, then went to a temporary company next to them, and called a few fighters.

This is a company of a missile battalion improvised on a small island. It was used for missile launch tests.

As before, Yan Mingcheng went over to call a few fighters out and transported the experimental missile where Zhao Zhongyao had placed the 'gyroscope' just now in a small car.

Then came to a nearby makeshift launch site.

There is a makeshift launch pad there.

Since ballistic missiles are all vertically launched. Therefore, the launch pad, that is, the rocket launcher used in the world before Zhao Zhongyao's death, is almost the same.

Originally, ballistic missiles and launch vehicles were members of the same missile family. It's just that their uses are different, and their names are different.

Generally speaking, ballistic missiles that are civilian are naturally not called missiles. It's called a launch vehicle. And the ballistic missiles used by the army are naturally called missiles, not rockets.

Zhao Zhongyao and Yan Mingcheng worked together to let the soldiers install this experimental missile on the launch frame again.

Everything was the same as before, commanded by Yan Mingcheng, and then Zhao Zhongyao personally pressed the launch button.

"Boom!", this experimental missile went straight into the sky again.

After a few minutes of vertical flight, the missile began to fly horizontally again.

After flying horizontally for less than a minute, he began to dive again to attack the target.

When it is seen that the missile has started to attack the target again. Zhao Zhongyao and Yan Mingcheng are still a little nervous!

Since the target area is tens of nautical miles away from their island, it is not easy to see the target area clearly with the naked eye on the island.

If you want to see the target area clearly, you need to use a telescope!

Now Zhao Zhongyao and Yan Mingcheng each hold an ordinary military telescope in their hands. Keep watching the movement in the target area.

You know, it's been a few failures before. If he is not successful, Zhao Zhongyao will not know how to develop this ballistic missile.

Both of them were holding their breath now, waiting to see if the missile would be the same as before. I'm afraid that the missile will roll and self-destruct and explode when it approaches the target!

Now the missile is very close to the target. It is only about a hundred meters away from the target.

Zhao Zhongyao and Yan Mingcheng were very nervous, and their eyes widened in surprise.

Although Zhao Zhongyao felt. This time it should work.

But after all, it's an experiment. Whether he can succeed or not, he has no score in his heart.

Yan Mingcheng became even more nervous. Because he felt that the little 'gyroscope' was not a high-tech precision instrument. With this gadget, it can really solve such a big problem as missile balance.

So, both of them looked very nervously at the experimental missile that was still flying at high speed in the sky. One by one's eyes were staring at each other, afraid that the missile would explode on its own like before.

Now the missile immediately flew over the target, and it was already less than twenty meters away. This distance is already something that none of the previous experimental missiles have done.

"Boom!"

The missile managed to destroy the target and did not explode in mid-air.

"Haha, good, good, successful, successful. ”

Zhao Zhongyao and Yan Mingcheng jumped up happily when they saw that the experimental missile had finally succeeded in destroying the target this time.

"Zhongyao, I really didn't expect that the little 'gyroscope' you developed would really work! It could really make the missile stop rolling and successfully destroy the target!"

Yan Mingcheng looked at a model warship with a telescope that had blown the missile to pieces, and he was very happy.

"Whether it has a role or not has little to do with the size of the component. Last time, the 'electronic cutter' I developed was not very big! It was much smaller than this electronic 'gyroscope,' but it didn't take down the enemy's unmanned reconnaissance plane.

The more sophisticated the instrument, the smaller it is, which is a common phenomenon. What else can't you understand!"

Zhao Zhongyao listened to Yan Mingcheng's words and explained to him.

"Zhongyao, what you said makes sense. I'm a layman, and I really don't know much about your military industry!"

Yan Mingcheng listened to Zhao Zhongyao's words, he scratched his head again, looking a little embarrassed.

"I'm not talking about you! Lao Yan, you are also a division commander. Although you are not an expert in the military industry, you should also know more about the military industry.

In future wars, the role of weapons will become more and more significant. As a military commander who uses weapons, only by being familiar with and understanding the weapons in his hands can he give better play to the performance of weapons!

If you want to be a commander. If there is no education at all, and there is no knowledge of military industry at all, how can it be possible to command a modern army well! This is an unthinkable thing!"

Zhao Zhongyao saw that Yan Mingcheng had been following him for so long, and his military level didn't seem to have improved, so he said a few words about Yan Mingcheng.

When Yan Mingcheng heard this, he also smiled a little embarrassedly: "Haha, Zhongyao, you are criticizing and educating me! Okay, I'll listen to you." In the future, I will definitely learn more from you, so that I can become a super military expert like you as soon as possible. ”

"Haha, the tone is not small, and I am a super military expert like me. It's nice if you can act like an ordinary military expert. Zhao Zhongyao said in a joking tone. laughed at Yan Mingcheng.

"Hey, Zhongyao, don't say that, the experiment of this experimental missile just now was successful. I also have some credit!" Yan Mingcheng seemed to think of something again, and looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said with a smile.

"Yes, what credit do you have. I developed this 'gyroscope'. I also designed the experimental missile. What bird credit do you have. Zhao Zhongyao listened to Yan Mingcheng's words, and said a little unconvinced.

"Zhongyao, don't forget, you can develop a 'gyroscope', it all depends on the result of me taking a small alarm clock to repair it for you! If I hadn't given you a small alarm clock first, then how would you have thought of developing a 'gyroscope'!"

Yan Mingcheng is really good at quibbling, which makes Zhao Zhongyao really speechless.

"Well, you seem to have a lot to do! Well, you'll do the rest." You will develop the first medium-range ballistic missile!"

Zhao Zhongyao looked at Yan Mingcheng and gave him an unfinishable task.

"Don't, don't, don't! Zhongyao, aren't you joking! I know what! And let me develop a ballistic missile, even if I am asked to develop a pistol, I can't develop it!"

Yan Mingcheng saw that Zhao Zhongyao was going to give him such a difficult task, and he was about to refuse. Because, for Yan Mingcheng, this arduous task is an impossible task.

"That's it, since you can't develop it, don't give me the credit. All the credit for this is mine. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Yan Mingcheng and made a joke that made Yan Mingcheng a little embarrassed.

"Yes, yes, it's all from Zhongyao. Yan Mingcheng carefully accompanied the smiling face. "Haha! What are we talking about! The great mission has just begun! Let's not waste time, I'm going to hurry back to designing ballistic missiles. ”

Zhao Zhongyao knew that he still had an arduous task! He had not yet designed the first real ballistic missile! This was the most important task in the development of the missile this time. Only when the drawings of this ballistic missile are first designed can the next step be carried out.

"Okay, let's go, let's go back!" Yan Mingcheng was no longer joking with Zhao Zhongyao.

The two returned to the office area from the launch site.

Zhao Zhongyao went straight back to his office.

Yan Mingcheng was naturally embarrassed to disturb Zhao Zhongyao again, so he returned to his office.

A few days later, Zhao Zhongyao finally designed the drawings of an intermediate-range ballistic missile after some hard work.

Then, after taking it to the workshop and showing it to the relevant technicians, the production of this heavyweight weapon began immediately.

A month later, Huaguo's first medium-range ballistic missile was finally developed and produced from the workshop.

It was a good day of calm and calm.

It's time to launch a real ballistic missile.

This is an important moment because ballistic missiles are expensive to build. The first one will cost millions of dollars! Therefore, after the successful development, the experiment will be carried out this time. You can't do such a high-level test again and again!

As this is an important moment. Of course, the higher-ups also came to the launch site. It is also necessary to see how Huaguo's heavyweight weapons show their great power.

Most of the leaders who came were leaders of the armament department. Of course, Director Liu and Chief of Staff Yang are also among them.

Now this heavyweight ballistic missile has been installed on a high launcher.

It is a piece that is thirty meters high and nearly one meter in diameter. A big guy weighing twenty-six tons. A round, pointed warhead with four small tails. Standing vertically on the launch stand, it is obviously incomparably mighty and domineering.

"Zhongyao, how far can this big guy hit!" Director Liu looked at such a big guy and wanted to know how far this missile could hit!

"Well, it's not too far, this ballistic missile is designed to have a maximum range of 5,000 kilometers. Zhao Zhongyao looked at Director Liu confidently and said.

"Good guy, can you launch 5,000 kilometers! Can you shoot half of the Pacific Ocean?" Director Liu was very surprised when he heard Zhao Zhongyao's words.

"Zhongyao, is it really so powerful!" Chief of Staff Yang was beside Director Liu, and he also heard what Zhao Zhongyao said, and when he heard it, he was also very surprised.

"Yes, in theory, of course. It's just that the longer the range, the greater the accuracy of hitting the target. It should be said that the effective range of this ballistic missile is also within 4,000 kilometers. ”

The data that Zhao Zhongyao said is, of course, some theoretical data. What will happen in the end, that can only be tested by practice.

"Four thousand kilometers is far enough. Zhongyao, you are really powerful, if this thing hits the enemy, then you can hit the enemy far away without leaving home!"

"Yes, we can strike at any enemy within a radius of 4,000 kilometers just by using this small island!" Zhao Zhongyao said very confidently.

"Hey, Zhongyao, where is the target of the attack launched in this experiment! With such a long attack range, it won't be nearby!" Chief of Staff Yang suddenly thought of this question.

"Of course, it won't be around anymore. The target of our attack this time was a target 3,000 kilometers away from this small island. Zhao Zhongyao looked at the sea in the distance and said.

"Ah, it's so far away, what kind of place is that!" As soon as Director Liu heard Zhao Zhongyao say that the target of this ballistic missile attack was 3,000 kilometers away, he wanted to know very much, what kind of place is this! )
