696 The heart of the powerful 1000 hp tank, our troops use it themselves

“……”

Xie Kai really wanted to ask Ibrahim, he had an MMP in his heart, and he didn't know whether to talk about it or not.

The question of spear and shield is always a tangled question. The spear is too sharp for the shield to defend, and the shield is too thick for the spear to pierce.

"General, if our anti-tank missiles penetrate the top, do you think that our tank defense is not good?" Xie Kai asked Ibrahim, holding back the anger in his heart.

Ibrahim shrugged, isn't that what happened?

"Okay, let's talk about it when we have any questions. Zheng Yucheng did not know what the Iraqi doubts were.

It's been a testing ground all along, and it's not a place to talk, is it?

On the way back, Xie Kai told Zheng Yucheng and others about the Iraqis' doubts, and they also felt helpless about the Iraqis' thoughts.

"Everyone, please take note. All over the world, up to now, in addition to our anti-aircraft missile, there may be another one that uses the top attack mode to attack tanks and armored vehicles, that is, the ...... you encountered" Back at the base, Xie Kai decided to have a good fight with the Iraqis, "And pretend to have thicker protective armor on top of the tank, until now, have you heard of whose tank is like this?"

Xie Kai's question made the Iraqis shake their heads.

"The history of the development of national weapons and equipment has always been that spears and shields stimulate each other's development. If there is a sharper spear, there will be a thicker shield, and so on and so on...... "Xie Kai always felt that the IQ of Iraqis was not online. "Your enemy, Persia, now has the most powerful tank in his hands, the M60 tank, and it's not even the most advanced model......"

Xie Kai analyzes the level of equipment of the opponents of the Iraqis.

Iraqis were embarrassed by him.

Attacking the other's spear and attacking the other's shield is a meaningless topic in itself.

"On the ...... armor-piercing shells" Ibrahim had to change the subject.

"I have to talk to Director Wang about this. Xie Kai is now wise not to take these specific matters on himself.

The problem is that the Iraqis are not doing it.

"The price they are asking for is too high. A colonel said, "International armor-piercing bullets are generally only about $3,000." And you are quoting $40,000......"

"Internationally, the tail is stable and armor-piercing, is it really such a price?" Xie Kai raised his eyebrows, "If there is no sincerity, let's not talk about it." ”

Just kidding, the tail stabilized shelling armor-piercing bullet was actually embarrassed to buy one for $3,000.

Although the cost of this thing is lower than that.

"Thanks, this kind of armor-piercing bullet will cost less than $40,000. "Ibrahim knows that the tail is stable and armor-piercing shells are expensive.

Internationally, it is tens of thousands of dollars a piece.

But this time, the asking price of 404 is high.

"The latest technology development, high-strength tungsten alloy incorporating rare earth elements, the world's top tail stabilized deshelling ......armor-piercing projectile," Xie Kai said, introducing their tail stabilized deshelling armor-piercing projectile.

This thing is also the top armor-piercing bullet in China.

It stands to reason that it is not a sale.

For the sake of small money, for more R&D funds, 404 cannot but be sold.

"Is it the most advanced in the world, can it penetrate the main armor of the 359 tank?" an Iraqi lieutenant colonel asked Xie Kai.

"It depends on the situation, if the 359 tank is stationary, it is still possible. Xie Kai did not deny it at all.

Iraq was blown up.

"Are you going to sell these armor-piercing shells to the Persians too?"

"No, the 359 tank must be thickened and ...... armored"

Ibrahim looked at Xie Kai, not knowing where he got such a big anger.

In such a situation, it is simply impossible to continue the conversation.

"Why do you answer that?" Zheng Yucheng complained to Xie Kai a little, "In such a situation, I would rather not sell their shells than affect the sale of tanks." ”

Tank buying and selling is the big one.

"These goods are not well-intentioned at all. Xie Kai said angrily.

Wang Guilin looked at him, "13 359 tanks were destroyed before, and now there are no results, whether the missile was supplied to the Persians by Kabila or a new missile developed by the Soviets, we don't know." ”

That is, there is still anger in the hearts of the Iraqis.

But this cooperation can't be discussed, Xie Kai will continue to be dragged on, and when the final exam comes, he will be finished.

Huaqing can't mix there, how can he fool people back in the future?

"General, are you here to procure or are you here to rip off?" Xie Kai asked angrily as he found Ibrahim.

"Of course, the procurement of weapons. Ibrahim smiled, "Thanks, your tanks, upgrades, it seems that you are not the only ones who provide this?"

Xie Kai was stunned, a more advanced model?

Yes!

It was used by its own troops, and it was impossible to sell it at all.

"Do you think tank upgrades are like cabbage?" Xie Kai said angrily, "and you don't want to bear too expensive costs. Until now, a little bit of technology improvement, the increase in cost, not a little. The prices of these tanks, such as the German Leopard-2, the American M1, and the Soviet T-80, you should know it, are all 4 million dollars or more......"

Ibrahim was embarrassed.

It's not that he doesn't know, but he hopes to use this opportunity to get more benefits from the Chinese side.

The two of them are business partners with Xie Kai, and they also count on Xie Kai to help him make money, so what he can't say, he naturally lets his subordinates go.

"Thank you, the reserve price you gave, this price, I can't pay it when I go back. As for my share, I don't want it, you're all counted in it, how about it?" Ibrahim also knew that he was not very kind this time.

The loss of 13 359 tanks is completely due to their people being too light on the enemy and too careless, knowing that the weapons and equipment equipped by the other side will not be much worse than them, especially those from China.

"$180,000 for missiles and $24,000 for armor-piercing shells. Xie Kai pondered for a moment and quoted such a price, "This is the bottom line, below this price, it is estimated that it is difficult." I will not participate in the negotiations between the two sides in the future. ”

Ibrahim wanted to say something, but Xie Kai left directly.

"You quote such a price? Okay, let's talk about it according to this. It is indeed not easy to produce that kind of armor-piercing bullet. After listening to Xie Kai's report, Wang Guilin nodded.

At the beginning, they were actually ready to quote a price of $4,000 a piece, but the Iraqis went too far, and Zheng Yucheng was angry and directly doubled tenfold.

Ammunition is expendable, no more.

Compared with Xie Kai, Zheng Yucheng and others are completely limited by poverty.

"By the way, Uncle Wang, didn't the troops order a regimental 359 tank modification from us? If we continue to strengthen the armor defense, etc., the power system will not be able to keep up. Xie Kai always felt that the 359 tank was also limited by the power system.

So far, their 359 tank, even with a 730 horsepower engine, has just exceeded 60, which is still the maximum road speed.

In off-road situations, especially in actual combat use in Iraq, it was found that the speed performance was very different from the theoretical data.

For the use of troops, such a tank is really not suitable.

Can't you always provide a model this year, and provide a model next year, right?

"We have a 1000 hp engine. Wang Guilin's words made Xie Kai think that he had heard it wrong.

"Haven't you heard? Haven't you heard that our tank engines have always been provided by the 617? They are still a little reluctant to use the 780 horsepower engines, right?" Xie Kai asked.

Wang Guilin shook his head with a smile, "It's not the power plant of 617, it's made by the 541 base, or rather, with the help of our domestic third-generation tank project team, it was ......."

"Zhu boss?" Xie Kai is usually a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, and he has not paid attention to the progress of the domestic third-generation tank project for a long time.

Not to mention the one-armed boss who sees a busy man.

"Yes, I wish the boss their tank, which has already begun to be designed, and many technologies have 359 tanks for experimental demonstration, but the engine is ......" Speaking of this, Wang Guilin sighed.

In all the equipment fields in China, the problem of heart disease is very prominent.

In terms of tank engines, Xie Kai usually doesn't pay much attention, and all his energy is invested in the heart problem of the aircraft.

For the 404, the tank is just an emergency product for survival, and the technology of the integration of the 359 tank is almost the ultimate modification of the 59.

Many things, the design of 59G directly used, only some electronic equipment is worse, but the fire control system used in it, computer-aided systems, etc., exceeds 59G, after all, some things are directly 96 type.

The only thing is that the 59 tank cannot be equipped with an engine of 1000 horsepower or even larger.

With these, the chassis, etc., all have to be modified, and even the appearance of the tank will be completely changed.

"Internationally, the new generation of main battle tanks are powered by thousands of horsepower engines to ensure strong power and higher mobility. At the beginning, Mr. Zhu communicated with us and said that he hoped that we could provide funds to speed up the research of tank engines...... "Wang Guilin looked at Xie Kai, "At the beginning, you proposed that the 359 tank must be reserved for the ability to replace the 1000 horsepower engine......"

"Did you get it out?" Xie Kai knew that these old guys had not told him everything.

He doesn't care about that, as long as there is such an engine!

"If we hadn't done it, our troops wouldn't have bothered to procure it. The price of a 359 tank can produce 4 59 tanks for the troops!" Wang Guilin said with a smile.

"The gas engine used in the tank is also available?" Xie Kai asked a little greedily.

Wang Guilin rolled his eyes in anger.

If there really is this, the design work of the third-generation main battle tank project has already progressed rapidly.

"Before, the development of tank engines in our country was divided into three stages, do you know?" Wang Guilin asked Xie Kai.

Xie Kai shook his head blankly, "I know that we are domestic, whether it is army equipment, air force equipment, not to mention naval equipment, the problem of heart disease is very serious." Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought about building an engine factory in Rongcheng at the beginning. ”

The engine is a hard flaw in all fields of China.
