Chapter 396: Pre-Test Mentality
Early the next morning, when the cold sunlight penetrated the thick clouds and illuminated the whole world, the renovated and expanded Wanshan Factory's weapons and equipment comprehensive inspection and testing site also ushered in a new day, at this time the time had entered the middle of January 1982, in the north it was the middle of winter when the snow was dripping into ice.
Located in the southwest, this newly renovated weapons and equipment comprehensive test site is full of green trees and green mountains, but this lush green does not make people feel refreshed, but feels more like the stubborn withered green that is locked after low-temperature preservation in the freezer.
The reason why I feel so, there is no other reason, but the winter here is too cold, different from the dry in the north, because the humidity is too high, although the winter temperature here is maintained above freezing, but the wet and cold air is like thousands of tiny ice needles, with the fierce north wind, through the heavy cotton clothes, piercing into the delicate skin, inevitably piercing into the bone marrow inside the body.
This is the case in unheated houses, even more so on flat streets, in the fields on the outskirts of the city, in the basin, and even more so in the Wanshan Factory weapons and equipment comprehensive inspection and testing site where climate change is more severe due to terrain, but although the biting cold is unbearable, the early morning inspection and testing site is still busy and abnormal, and the hot scene can be seen everywhere in the entire test site, which also makes it impossible to act recklessly in this basin.
After all, this test site undertakes the initial test task of the main weapon systems of the new tank, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a heavy responsibility, but what is different from the past is that the atmosphere in today's weapons and equipment test site is somewhat different, although it is also doing the preliminary preparations for the inspection of weapons and equipment. But the indescribable atmosphere that seems to be clear and clear makes the people in it really experience:
"Xiao Wang, it doesn't seem right today, how can people with armor systems and ammunition systems look like enemies!"
"What's the matter? You Lao Li still don't know?" The test site technician named Xiao Wang held the checklist in his hand, looking at the data detection equipment in front of him, and replied to Lao Li's question. And Lao Li, who was standing behind him, pressed a few buttons on a high-speed crash recorder, and when he saw that it was running normally, he filled in the word "qualified" in his inspection record book, but he wrote here, but his mouth did not stop because of this:
"I spent all day debugging the equipment yesterday, how do I know so much!" said that, Lao Li had already filled in the inspection record form, and then checked it, and after confirming that it was correct, he turned the page and came to the next testing instrument. The previous action was repeated, and in the meantime his voice sounded again:
"It's just that there is something wrong with these two groups of people, so I asked, otherwise, I wouldn't bother to care!"
"So, you Lao Li has a good show today!" As soon as Lao Li's words fell, Xiao Wang leaned over and saw that there was no one around. He whispered a few words in Lao Wang's ear, and Lao Li was reading the display data on the instrument at this time. Listening to Xiao Wang's words, I couldn't help but be surprised:
"What? You want to use new ammunition to hit new armor?"
"That's why I said that there is a good show to watch!" Xiao Wang continued with an expectant look on his face: "I heard that the heads of the two subsystems are shouting for this, and the people below are naturally distinct, but no matter what, this spear and shield duel is absolutely exciting, tsk~~~ Since the establishment of our test ground, there has never been such an expected inspection test!"
said. Xiao Wang couldn't help but step forward and touch Lao Li with his elbow, and then lowered his voice and said with laughter: "Alas, Lao Li, do we want to gamble to see if the shield is harder." Or is the spear sharper, as for the bets, how about two packs of big front doors?"
"I want to bet on you, I just hope that during the test, all the instruments and equipment are normal!" Lao Li ignored Xiao Wang's proposal at all, raised his head and continued his inspection work, and Xiao Wang, who was rejected, also felt a little bored, and returned to the side and began to get busy with the work at hand
Similar to the scene of Lao Li and Xiao Wang, at this time, the weapons and equipment comprehensive inspection and testing site can be seen everywhere and heard everywhere, but compared with the weapons and equipment test site, the people who are either concerned, or indifferent, or simply hold the mentality of watching the excitement and wait for the show to be staged, as the two groups of scientific researchers who are about to go to the confrontation of the composite armor system and the anti-tank ammunition system, it seems to be extremely silent, but the calmness and confidence from the heart are filled with everyone's face.
In their opinion, rather than talking more, it is better to come to the test site a few times, and then it will be clear who is right and who is wrong, but the idea is the same, but no one on both sides thinks that their side will lose, you must know that whether it is a new type of anti-tank ammunition, or just developed composite armor, it can be called the leading domestic military technology products, and the self-confidence of both sides without exception comes from this.
"The test is divided into two types of artillery!" Just when the staff of the weapons and equipment comprehensive inspection and test site were intensively preparing for the test, Zhao Rusong, who was the person in charge of the development of the new tank ammunition system, had already come to the ammunition launch site early, and while watching the intense preparations of the ammunition system development personnel under his leadership, he listened to the report of the assistant Xiao Dong beside him:
"One is the Type 59 100mm rifled gun, the other is the 120mm rifled gun on the British 'Chieftain' tank, the ammunition used is in addition to the 100mm anti-tank ammunition for the Type 59 tank equipped with our army's large-scale equipment, the most important thing is the series of anti-tank ammunition for the 120mm rifled gun that we have just developed, the current batch of 120mm ammunition is in good condition, and the rest depends on the armor system to provide a few target plates!"
"How many target plates do they provide, what does it have to do with us?" Listening to Assistant Xiao Dong's words, Zhao Rusong's calm face rarely flashed a slight chuckle, but this rare smile fell into Xiao Dong's eyes, but there was an indescribable feeling, but before he could carefully appreciate Zhao Rusong's smile, the words of this old military expert sounded in his ears again:
"Let's just fight step by step!"
"En!" After listening to Zhao Rusong's words, Xiao Dong nodded: "I understand, I will let the gunner hit hard when the time comes."
"You can't be too ruthless!" Before Xiao Dong finished speaking, Zhao Rusong interrupted his words. Then he turned his head sideways and glanced at his assistant:
"As long as the performance of our ammunition is fully displayed, the rest should be given some face, after all, it is all for the new tank, and they are all colleagues, and it is not good to overdo it!"
Zhao Rusong's tone when he said this was not hurried, as if he was chatting with visiting old friends in his rocking chair on weekdays. It's just that the kind of self-confidence and attitude that is revealed between the words is not something that anyone can learn.
Seeing this, the assistant Xiao Dong who was standing on the side recalled Zhao Rusong's indescribable chuckle just now, where did he not understand that this old expert who had experienced vicissitudes of life was full of confidence in the victory of the anti-tank ammunition that he personally presided over the development. Responding to Zhao Rusong:
"Don't worry, Professor Zhao, I know what to do!"
"Well, it's good to know!" Zhao Rusong nodded with satisfaction, but at this moment, the scientific researchers of the two ammunition systems walked past him carrying a strangely shaped ammunition box, Zhao Rusong stopped the two of them when he saw this, and then glanced at the number on the box. A pair of slightly gray eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle slightly, and then asked:
"This 100mm armor-piercing bullet is not an experimental verification product. How did you get here?"
"Professor Zhao, before you came, we just received a notice from the chief engineer's office!" Seeing Zhao Rusong ask, Xiao Dong, the assistant standing next to him, hurriedly stepped forward and explained:
"Let us bring over all the anti-tank ammunition that has been demonstrated or is waiting to be demonstrated, these samples of 100mm long-rod tail shell-out armor-piercing shells. We also sent it here a few days ago to prepare for the verification test, so I brought it with me!"
After listening to Xiao Dong's words, Zhao Rusong nodded, then glanced at the ammunition box and nodded: "Take it, put it aside and keep it." After a while, we will finish shooting the composite armored target, and then we will carry out the verification test of this type of ammunition!"
After speaking, Zhao Rusong turned his head and looked at the assistant Xiao Dong beside him, and said with emotion: "So, you young people really have to learn from Master Lu, you have to figure out this kind of overall planning after you go back!"
"I understand!" Xiao Dong had a teachable look on his face, but after saying this, there was a trace of confusion on his face, and then asked Zhao Rusong:
"But is it possible that Chief Master Lu wants us to use these verification shells to hit a dozen composite armored targets?"
"It's impossible!" Before Xiao Dong finished speaking, Zhao Rusong ruthlessly interrupted his words, and then the relaxed expression just now disappeared, and he put on that serious face again:
"This is just a hypothetical plan put forward by Chief Lu at the technical seminar on the new tank ammunition system, although there are desirable points, but there are also many shortcomings, what is the specific situation, it still needs to be verified, it is good to be able to get it here for verification experiments, it is impossible to use it to hit composite armored targets!"
Xiao Dong saw that Zhao Rusong's face sank, so he didn't dare to speak, and hurriedly asked people to carry this box of ammunition down, and at this moment, two composite armor target plates had been erected in the open space in the distance, and the preparations were nearing the end, and the prelude to a spear and shield confrontation was slowly opened (to be continued). )
