"The performance of this gun, for a specialized sniper rifle, is not very good. At least it is necessary to achieve accurate design within 800 meters, mass production, and equipment are not suitable. Xiao Manzhi did not answer what the cost was, but told everyone that this gun was not good.

"It's also true that the 56 semi-automatic can be equipped with a scope, which can provide a precise design in the range of 600 meters. He Chao nodded and said, "At a distance of 600 meters, as long as there is a scope, veterans with better marksmanship can hit chest targets." Ordinary fighters can control a distance of 200 meters with firepower. ”

During the previous training, the troops had a slogan called 200 meters of hard kung fu, and the soldiers of each unit studied hard and practiced hard in order to achieve a distance of 200 meters in front of them and a range of 30 meters to the left and right, which belonged to their fire control range.

The soldiers of the People's Liberation Army, using 56 and a half, without a scope, can kill the enemy's living target at a distance of 300 meters.

The appearance of the 79 sniper is because the Vietnamese snipers use the sniper rifles provided by the Soviet Union to hide from 600 meters away to shoot cold guns, such a distance cannot be suppressed by the 56 semi-automatic without a scope.

Even with the addition of a scope, the 79 sniper rifle was not particularly useful because of the accuracy problem. The troops can make the enemy snipers suffer, not by the performance of the guns, but by the sharpshooters in the various units!

"So, it's just for you to try out, and count the R&D expenses. Xie Kai said.

If you want the troops to pay for it, you must first let them see excellent performance, after all, in the current military mind, snipers are a possibility.

The military industry of the republic was learned from the USSR, which helped build it, but not all of them learned the Soviet model of the army, even if the armored clusters were learning.

During the war between the Soviet Union and Germany, the preparation for a major war and the end of it were moments for sharpshooters on both sides. Therefore, in the post-war Soviet Union, the first professional sniper rifle was developed, the Degladenov sniper rifle, which was equipped to the squad platoon level.

The Soviet Union's war mentality determined the role and mission of the sniper.

For the attacking Soviet troops, they were equipped with snipers at the platoon level, just to provide fire cover, to clear out the opposing machine gunners, or to point out valuable targets.

So, the Degradnov sniper rifle is equipped only with a 4x scope and is responsible for fire cover at a range of 800 meters, or even within 400 meters.

A little further, the Soviets believed that it was the range of fire of heavy weapons.

Following the Soviet model, the 79 sniper is also equipped to the squad platoon level.

China attaches great importance to snipers, and it is not until the special operation of the Gulf War shocks the whole world and the country begins to form special forces in the real sense that the real role of snipers is discovered.

At that time, the role of the 85 sniper was greatly limited because of the problem of the gun not being equipped with ammunition and its own defects.

The design of the 88 sniper was successful, but the small-caliber sniper rifle, the bullet warhead weighed only a few grams, and at a distance of several hundred meters, the bullet was blown by the wind and did not know where.

Even a 7.62 mm warhead with a penetration higher than the 85 sniper at a distance of 1,000 meters has too much ballistic dispersion and cannot provide precision strikes.

Therefore, the position of the 88 sniper in the army is embarrassing, and the accuracy of the 85 sniper is not enough......

In this way, even if the accuracy of the 88 sniper is much higher than that of the 85 sniper, it has not completely replaced the 85 sniper. In the armed police force that needs accurate shooting at close range and will shoot when rescuing hostages, Qingyishui is equipped with 85 snipers, rather than 88 snipers with higher accuracy.

If Xie Kai wants to change this situation, he must make He Chao pay attention to the status of snipers at the very beginning of their exploration of the special operations mode.

The status of snipers not only depends on their own military literacy, but more importantly, they must have a sniper rifle that can provide accurate shooting at a distance of 1,000 meters and has reliable performance.

In this way, the military cannot be frightened by the fact that the price is too high at the beginning.

"Xiao Xie, the price of a gun like ours is not cheap, if we provide ...... for a long time" Even Han Weidong frowned and reminded Xie Kai.

The garrison regiment can give a part of the funds, and the pressure on them to study will be much less.

"It's okay, the development of any weapons and equipment is not a simple matter, and having a garrison regiment that provides us with more complete data is a self-evident benefit to us. Xie Kai said. "You don't have to worry about the money, you just need to come up with a sniper rifle with better performance. ”

"Yes, Lao Han, what Xiao Xie said is right, you just need to do the research. Wang Guilin also spoke.

Han Weidong is for funding, after all, this is their first official project in so many years.

"In terms of the barrel, I suggest that we also have to re-study, the internal chrome plating, although it has been processed, has a great impact on the ballistics of the bullet, and it is best to study the material that can prevent corrosion without chrome plating, so as to ensure better accuracy...... The material from which the barrel is made can be forged before processing, so that the internal organization is more tightly organized...... "Xie Kai put forward some suggestions of his own.

In firearms research, materials and production processes also need to be guaranteed.

In this way, the sniper rifle developed can reach the top level in terms of accuracy.

As long as there is an impact on the trajectory of the bullet, it must be improved, and it is impossible to eliminate the impact, but the impact can be reduced to a lower degree.

"Why do I have a bad premonition?" On the way out, Yang Bin asked He Chao, "That kid has the same urine as Zheng Yucheng, this gun shouldn't be cheap, and it's provided for us for free......"

"What are you worried about? Even if he asks for money, how much can we give? Even if there is really some conspiracy, what can we do? We just need to make our special forces more combat-capable. He Chao said indifferently.

For Xie Kai's generous behavior, he actually felt incredible.

I can't figure out what his purpose is.

"What is the purpose? Let them record all kinds of situations in the process of using them, and provide more data for us to study. Xie Kai replied when facing Zheng Yucheng's inquiry.

Zheng Yucheng and the others looked at him, "Long-term experiments, they have funds, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat!"

Zheng Yucheng got the news from Wang Guilin that Xie Kai would provide firearms and ammunition for the garrison for free for a long time in the future, and he was a little dissatisfied in his heart.

The production cost of a 79 sniper rifle is only about 3,000 yuan, but after they remodeled it, it was equipped with a specially redesigned sniper scope, and the price was more than 20,000 yuan.

If improvements continue to be made, the cost will be higher, and God knows what price will be reached in the end.

Originally, he thought that five million was enough, but Zheng Yucheng now found that five million is really not much, and maybe he can't achieve the kind of result Xie Kai wants when he runs out.

According to Xie Kai's requirements, the barrel material has to choose materials with greater strength, and it has to go through forging and other processes to improve the strength of the material, and the processing accuracy is high, so how much does it cost?

Bullets also have to go through a lot of research work, and it's a costly process.

A sniper rifle, with such a large investment, and not much profit......

Han Weidong and others can't be blamed for things.

After asking if it was Xie Kai who made the decision, Zheng Yucheng and others went to the firearms workshop to find Xie Kai in person.

"We have to take a long-term view, don't we?" Xie Kai looked at Zheng Yucheng.

"It's not a question of long-term vision. Zheng Yucheng looked at Xie Kai, "If the investment can't be recovered, we might as well use it somewhere else." ”

The base now has a lot of money, the airport has begun the foundation construction, and the building resources such as reinforced concrete that are difficult to get outside are continuously transported in through the railway from Jiayuguan to the base.

What used to be two buses a day has now become three, although it's still at night.

"Who said that it can't be recovered? Now our guns, although the performance has improved a lot, but there is not a big gap with the 79 sniper rifles equipped by the troops, the price is several times higher, and the military leaders will agree to purchase it?" Xie Kai asked Zheng Yucheng.

"Because of the high cost, they won't buy much even if they see outstanding performance. Zheng Yucheng said angrily, "You don't know how poor they are!"

"Sell to foreigners!" Xie Kai said, "Our main customers are all foreign at present. ”

"Who do you want to sell to?" Zheng Yucheng was stunned.

Xie Kai, this kid doesn't seem to be doing unprepared work.

"What's going on with the Iranians now? I asked you to tell them the news a few years ago, and it's been almost a month now, right?" Xie Kai asked Zheng Yucheng.

"Don't change the subject. Zheng Yucheng saw that Xie Kai was starting to change the topic, and immediately told him to stop quickly.

Xie Kai called Zheng Yucheng and the others outside the workshop.

It is not appropriate to talk about this in the workshop.

"It's really not a diversion of the subject, we can't let the Iranians go. It is not only missiles that will be sold to them, but our self-propelled guns, tanks, including now guns, need to be supplied to them!" Xie Kai has formed a complete set of plans on the side of the Gunsmith Research Institute these days.

"You just blow it here!" Zheng Yucheng was amused by Xie Kai. "Anyway, with that little money, don't ask me again when the time comes. ”

"Then you don't have any idea about the money you earn here?" Xie Kai asked.

Zheng Yucheng immediately wanted to nod in agreement, but in the end he didn't say it.

"Are you really sure?" Zheng Yucheng looked at Xie Kai and guessed the truth of his words.

"When are the Iranians coming? And what is the situation of our self-propelled guns? Didn't the tank prototype say that it was going to carry out firing experiments? Where is it?" Xie Kai asked a series of questions. "If there's something, it's much easier to fool them. ”

If you don't have samples, you have to brag, which is really not an easy thing to do.

"The Iranians are negotiating some business with other units in the country, and we still have a few days to go. A sample of the 125-mm tank gun will return to Jiayuguan tomorrow night......"

"Then how much money bag will they have left when they come to us?" Xie Kai asked with a frown.
