345 insanely fast shooting accuracy
When Zheng Yucheng and the others heard this, they were even more anxious.
This meant that their previous plan to get the Iraqis to pay for more tests on prototypes was about to go bankrupt.
At this time, no one blames anyone, what is needed is a way to solve it.
"Boom, boom!"
A series of shell explosions, six Type 79 tanks that stopped to aim at the No. 1 target opened fire at different positions at the same time, and all the shells accurately hit the No. 1 tank target.
The Type 79 main battle tank did not miss the target's ultra-high starting hit rate, setting off a series of mud, sand and gravel, making the No. 1 tank target disappear into invisibility, and no one cheered.
This is a merciless mockery of the 359 tank that made its debut.
The Type 79 main battle tank, even if there are various technologies introduced to dilute the cost, the cost of each unit does not exceed 1.5 million each.
Although the 105mm rifled gun was not as powerful as the 125mm smoothbore gun on the 359 tank, the homogeneous armor plates were not as thick as the Chobham composite armor on the 359 tank, and even the power was not as powerful as the 359 tank, and the weight was heavier......
However, everything in front of him told everyone who saw it that the 359 tank was far more expensive than the Type 79 main battle tank, and the price of Iraq's purchase reached 3 million US dollars, which was almost more than double the price of the 79 main battle tank, and there was no clear improvement in performance.
A tank that could not fire during the march had to stop in order to hit the target.
When facing an opponent who has a shooting on the move, it's just a target!
Expensive targets.
"Do you want to continue?" Zhang Deming's face was gloomy, he had not planned to show it to Pakistanis and Iraqis today.
"You go on, we have to go back first, there are still a lot of things to deal with. Musharraf was the first to offer to leave.
Harry Moissans didn't speak, but he told everyone with his actions that he was ready to go.
Here, it's a complete waste of time.
Zheng Yucheng wanted to stop it, but he didn't know how to speak.
Do they continue to watch and stop shooting?
With such firing conditions, not to mention the Type 79 main battle tank equipped with a disturbance fire control system, even the old Type 59 tank equipped with only a simple sight can hit the target.
"Ladies and gentlemen, wouldn't it be a pity to leave like this before the test is over?" Xie Kai didn't have the worries of others.
From the beginning, he knew the defects of the anti-stabilized image fire control system, and he dared to show the shortcomings of the 359 tank fire control system in front of the gold owner, so he naturally had confidence.
"Xiao Xie, or we will improve it again, and then we will ......" Wang Guilin stopped Xie Kai.
It's a shame that this kid can still laugh.
Don't think it's shameful enough?
"Do you think that if we continue, the situation will improve? "Although Harry Mossan wants to give Xie Kai face, he can stay, it is a waste of time.
Wang Xingqiao grabbed his messy hair, patted his head and asked himself where the question was.
And the others, their faces are clouded.
Even Zhang Deming did not have the slightest confidence in using a computer-aided system for automatic aiming.
"Colonel, take a closer look, it's not necessarily a waste of time, maybe there will be unexpected surprises! If it's just this kind of performance, we dare to ask you for $3 million?" Xie Kai still had a smile on his face.
"Surprise, I'm afraid. 50 million dollars, just buy such an assembly line for tanks!" Musharraf did not leave any affection.
Zhang Deming's face was even more embarrassed.
As the chief designer, although to a greater extent, the plans are all made by Xie Kai, and he himself feels shameless when such a situation occurs.
"Colonel, if I say that we did it on purpose, would you believe it?" Xie Kai's smile still did not change in the slightest.
From the beginning to the present, his expression has hardly changed in any way.
"But you're not going to let us see the 359 tank stop firing, do you?" Musharraf said with a smile.
"If this situation continues, your country's 50 million dollars will be refunded in full!" The smile on Xie Kai's face dissipated and he said solemnly.
Hearing this, Zheng Yucheng, Wang Guilin and others were all anxious.
It's just a joke, this is not child's play, Pakistan's 50 million dollars have long been spent.
Xie Kai stopped the people who were anxious to persuade him, and said to Musharraf seriously, "Colonel, what do you think of my proposal?"
Musharraf smiled, "You speak, can it work?"
Xie Kai didn't answer, and looked at Zheng Yucheng and the others.
The anxiety on the faces of several people was even worse.
Zheng Yucheng was even more anxious to pull Xie Kai aside, "What do you think?
"I promise to surprise them and even make Musharraf change his attitude! "Musharraf has always had a resistance mentality towards the 359 project.
Xie Kai was a little puzzled.
It stands to reason that this is completely different from the propaganda he saw before, when Musharraf was president, he visited China many times, and during his tenure, the relationship with China has always been very iron.
But now, this thing has always shown extreme dissatisfaction.
This makes Xie Kai very worried, he will be the president of Pakistan in the future, once this thing has always had such an attitude in his heart, it will not be easy to cooperate in the future. What's more, Xie Kai still wants to grab an order for the American F-16 fighter?
"The whole system, the computer-aided system that plays the biggest role in the hit rate, has not been used, which is why I agree that Mr. Wang should not use the auxiliary system first. Otherwise, they really think that our price is too tricky. Xie Kai explained the situation briefly.
Zheng Yucheng looked at him suspiciously, and he didn't have any bottom in his heart.
It stands to reason that he would not dare to take risks in such a situation.
But seeing Xie Kai's confident face, he could only choose to gamble in the end, otherwise, not only would Iraq not place an order, but even Pakistan's cooperation would have problems.
"What he says counts!"
"Lao Zheng!" Wang Guilin and the others were eager to stop Zheng Yucheng.
"It's okay, I trust our project team. Zheng Yucheng's heart was dripping blood, but his face had to be extremely calm, but his eyes looked at Xie Kai, if he couldn't satisfy the other party, it would be a lot of fun.
"Well, let's see what surprises there are. Musharraf said with a sneer.
Xie Kai looked at Zhang Deming, who was at a loss, "Mr. Zhang, let them continue, move forward at high speed, activate the computer-aided system, and aim automatically!"
Zhang Deming looked at Zheng Yucheng, who nodded, and could only grit his teeth and hold the walkie-talkie, giving an order to the 359 tank, which had stopped and waited for further orders.
The three people in the 359 tank are the best tank drivers, gun commanders and vehicle commanders selected from the garrison regiment.
The trio discovered the problem at the beginning, although it was much better than the Type 79 main battle tank or even the Type 69 sighting system, it was too bumpy, and the sighting system could not aim at distant targets.
On the central control screen of the tank, on the two palm-sized LCD screens, there are distant targets, and even several targets are provided on them, each of which is marked by a small yellow cross.
Once bumpy, this small cross will constantly move around the target.
"Keep going!" the commander said to the driver.
The driver replied that he had received it, and he had not turned off the ignition, so he immediately put on gear, released the brakes, and stepped on the accelerator to let the tank continue to move forward on the hillside.
"Turn on the automatic aiming system and get ready to shoot! Target 2!"
"Turn on the automatic aiming system, target target No. 2!"
"Speed 30. The commander asked the driver.
The display in front of him can see the data of the tank, and the three of them have separate displays to provide them with the parts they need to be responsible for, but the display in front of the commander has all the data of the entire tank.
With the driver gearing up and refueling, the tank slowly climbed from the beginning to the back and roared upward, and the tracks turned rapidly, shoveling the mud and sand on the ground backwards at high speed.
The turret, which had been stationary, began to rotate towards the rear of the tank again, and the barrel quickly adjusted downward from the previous state of being slightly raised.
"Speed 30. ”
"The No. 2 target has been locked!The No. 3 target has been shot and the elements have begun to solve......"
The situation was constantly reported, Zhang Deming heard the news in the car, and saw that the 359 tank was moving forward at high speed again, the barrel was still swinging slightly, and he gave an order with his eyes closed.
"Fire! Shoot continuously! Kill all the targets!"
After receiving the order, the commander did not ask whether he fired directly and continuously.
But there was such an arrangement in the previous test plan.
Now to salvage the reputation of the 359 tank, it is necessary to shoot at the target quickly and accurately. Anyway, with an automatic reloading mechanism, the firing speed will not be too slow.
On the small hill where the headquarters was located, everyone who was looking into the distance with binoculars saw with their own eyes that the 359 tank was like a wild horse that had escaped from the leash, and it was rushing towards it and firing at the same time.
"Boom!"
As soon as the muzzle fire flashed, smoke came out, and the sound of breaking the air was heard.
"Boom!"
The No. 2 tank target, which was more than 10 meters lower than the No. 1 tank target, was accurately hit by this shell, kicking up a cloud of dust and smoke.
"This doesn't mean anything!" Musharraf was also a little shocked, firing during the bumps of high-speed driving, without pause, and still hitting accurately!
With just one hit, it may be lucky or unclear.
The tank continued to climb at high speed, and the turret did not stop turning, and the barrel was still adjusting the angle.
"Boom!"
Tank No. 3 target was hit.
This tank target, even partially occluded.
Especially since this target is in the highest place, the barrel needs to be raised high!
"Maybe it's luck, too!" said to Musharraf with a smile, "Colonel, please keep reading." ”
Musharraf was visibly shocked.
Even Harry Moissan's eyes began to show anticipation.
"Boom!"
Target No. 4 was hit, and although it didn't hit the center, it still killed a corner with one shot.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The continuous rhythmic sound of shelling, constantly recalling in this valley, each shell fired, almost no more than ten seconds!
What's more, not a single shell missed!
All of them accurately hit the set tank targets.
