The tail of the third rocket was already covered with a pile of firewood.

These don't need to be deliberately prepared, there are everywhere in Daba Mountain in winter.

In winter, the mountains are full of dead grass, which is easy to obtain, and even before the test launch, a large area where the target is located is cleaned to prevent fire.

"Ignition!"

This time the ignition was not like before, as soon as the tail of the rocket was ignited, the engine started immediately.

The hay covering the tail of the rocket burned slowly, and for a while, the rocket did not move.

Even though the hay had burned out, there was still no movement.

Everyone's expressions froze.

The previous expectations were too different from the results.

The leaders of the headquarters of the base frowned even more.

"Factory 2186 is too risky this time, the first two launch methods are very good, and you have to use firewood to ignite rockets and throw stones to launch......"

Du Feng complained.

With the remaining two ways, success will not add too much color.

But if it fails, it will make people have a big psychological gap.

It is not easy to ignite the tail engine of the rocket with firewood, Liu Yue designed it for safety, so as to avoid potential safety hazards in the transportation process of the rocket.

Unless the ambient flame temperature can reach the ignition point of the propellant inside the rocket, and the ignition point temperature is relatively low, only the ignition device of the tail engine of the rocket......

"yes, it's a bit risky. It's been very good before, but if you don't perform well here, the effect will be greatly reduced......"

Jiang Zhihe also nodded in agreement with Du Feng's words.

The head of the unit pursues the ultimate in any equipment, and even wishes to throw it like a grenade to have an effect.

Of course, if the chiefs didn't know about this feature before, there was no problem.

Liu Yue actually wanted to show them this.

"Maybe he is trying to prove the safety of the rocket?" Lin Qiyang helped Liu Yue defend himself.

Now he can only comfort himself like this, otherwise the rocket will not ignite, and he will be on fire first.

Zheng Jianguo was even more anxious, seeing that the flames were about to be extinguished, and the rockets still failed to ignite.

He anxiously asked Liu Yue next to him, "Liu Yue, are we too risky?

Liu Yue shook his head, "No, this is actually to let the chiefs see the safety of the rocket in the non-firing state, the time should be almost up, and it will be ignited soon." ”

As soon as Liu Yue's words fell, the tail of the rocket "boomed", and the engine was successfully ignited.

The rocket flew towards the target, and the firewood that was still burning was sprayed everywhere by the air jet from the tail of the rocket......

"Boom~"

The rocket ignited by Chai He quickly fell on the target at a distance of 1,200 meters.

This time it missed the target directly, and deviated from the target by about 20 meters.

Even with a deviation of 20 meters, the target still belongs to the area covered by the rocket's lethal radius.

The people of the 2186 plant had previously briefed the heads of the troops that the rocket had a kill radius of 30 meters.

"Good!"

Everyone applauded.

"Very good design! Safety performance is also guaranteed!" Li Longyun gave a thumbs up.

Zhao Xingbang suppressed his excitement and said, "There is another one that was smashed with a stone, I want to see how they smash this thing out." ”

The remaining rocket was smashed with a big stone next to it, hoping to be launched, and Zhao Xingbang felt that this was a gimmick made by Factory 2186.

Some things, which have been done, are not a good thing.

Those who engage in military scientific research are not acting, and they do not need to attract too much attention.

For example, if you fire from a fire pyre and light it behind the enemy during a battle, you will definitely be discovered by the enemy, which is to tell the enemy where you are and let the enemy strike!

"How do you smash this?" the staff at the test launch site looked at the head-sized rocks and the rockets on the ground.

"Directly knock on the area behind the tail engine, the area behind the red line......" Liu Yue reminded beside him, "It's the ...... that there was a cover at the tail of the rocket before."

"I'm coming!"

Xie Jun jumped up directly, hugged the stone and threw it behind.

The head of the unit and the leaders of the headquarters didn't even have time to stop it, and the stone in Xie Jun's hand had already smashed into the tail area of the rocket.

"Boom~"

The crowd even closed their eyes.

It's too dangerous to smash a rocket with a rock, and if it explodes, the scene is too bloody......

"Boom~"

There was another explosion, and everyone opened their eyes only to find that Xie Jun, who was holding the stone, was still in a daze, and the smoke and dust in the target area 600 meters away were spreading around......

"Really succeeded?"

The heads of the leaders were full of incredulity.

Liu Yue looked at the impact point and shook his head, "This method is still not very reliable, it deviates from the target by at least 100 meters, and the accuracy is still not good...... When smashed, the rocket should be upturned and must be improved......"

When the chiefs heard this, they wanted to beat him.

Such a launch method only deviated by only 100 meters, and he didn't think it was good.

Is it enough to hit the target with a rock, launch it, and hit the target accurately?

"Very good, very nice. We are very satisfied with this kind of rocket artillery, but isn't it too dangerous to light the rocket engine with firewood and launch it with stones......" Zhao Xingbang felt that his throat was a little dry.

He felt that his old face was hot, and when he said this, he was a little picky in the eggs.

However, the firewood was ignited and launched, and it was indeed pointed out to the enemy.

"Chief, these are all emergency launch methods, and they are used urgently when there is no other way. These test launches are only to prove that they can successfully ignite and strike targets without the launch system, and also to demonstrate safety performance to the chiefs...... However, under these launch methods, the accuracy requires high skill and experience of the operator. The firewood ignition method is indeed easy to attract the attention of the enemy, but with this firing method, traps can be arranged around, and as long as the fire is lit, people can leave the ......"

Liu Yue did not deny the flaws of these launch methods.

The longer the range, the lower the accuracy of these emergency launches.

But these firing methods, for PLA troops who are good at guerrilla warfare, are instead a way to attract the enemy's attention, ignition and leave, and set some traps around, which can make the enemy suffer greater losses......

"It's already very good. Li Longyun's evaluation is still very pertinent.

"Deputy Director Zhao, do you see their production plan for rocket artillery?" Long Zhenhua, who had been expressionless all the time, just like Zheng Jianguo said that it seemed that everyone owed him money, and Long Zhenhua, who didn't talk much, also began to have a smile on his face at this time, and took the opportunity to ask Zhao Xingbang about the production plan.

He was fighting for the task of Factory 2186.

As a representative and responsible person of the army, when he sees this kind of powerful equipment, he naturally hopes that the troops can be equipped with it.

This kind of rocket artillery can effectively enhance the combat capability of troops, especially the front-line troops with weak firepower.

Zhao Xingbang glanced at him and said, "When did you stand on the same front with them? Shouldn't you consider the problem from the perspective of the troops?"

Long Zhenhua didn't care, and said calmly: "I just think from the perspective of the troops, the firepower of grassroots combat units is too poor, and with this kind of rocket artillery that does not occupy the establishment, the combat capability will be increased several times in an instant...... Each squad is equipped with one class, and the platoon level can form multiple rocket launchers for small-area fire support. Not to mention the company level, the firepower can completely cover a larger area of extended strikes......"

Long Zhenhua's words are naturally correct.

This is very much in line with the needs of the troops, rocket artillery does not occupy the establishment, and the cost is low.

Guo Zhentao also wanted to remind Zhao Xingbang to set a production plan now and let 2186 be put into production as soon as possible.

"Isn't there another individual bazooka? Let's see how powerful it is......

Zhao Xingbang did not directly make a decision on how much to produce.

Even if everyone who came was very interested in the 107 single rocket launcher, he did not make a direct decision.

The process still has to be followed.

Moreover, the money for the troops is also limited, and it is simply impossible to equip each squad of the domestic army with one.
