Chapter 412: The Source of the Theory
Zhao Rusong did not put forward such a theory, but he was no stranger to the principle of armor-piercing of long-rod deshelling tail stabilized armor-piercing projectiles mentioned by Zhu Haifeng and Qin Jingbin, because just over a month ago, when he came to Wanshan Factory to attend the plenary meeting of the new tank leading group, Lu Jiadong, who is the chief designer of the new tank, mentioned this principle in a private technical exchange.
Since then, in several meetings between Lu Jiadong and him, he has also mentioned several times a series of new ideas and new ideas about shell-out armor-piercing bullets, such as thin bullet body and large aspect ratio, but although he also felt that these made sense at that time, it was too risky to apply so many new technologies to an ammunition with extremely high requirements in terms of reliability, not to mention that he did not agree with some aspects.
For example, in terms of the number of tails, he believes that five tail fins are not only redundant, but also may increase the weight of the tail and cause the entire monomer to lose balance, such as reducing the diameter of the projectile body, thinking that this will reduce the power of the entire ammunition, but opposition does not mean that he does not accept it, after all, as a senior expert in the field of ammunition, he is very clear about the value of this set of principles proposed by Lu Jiadong.
Therefore, when he developed the new 120mm armor-piercing bullet, he also applied part of this principle, and also made several 100mm armor-piercing bullets according to Lu Jiadong's requirements, but because he was too confident in the 120mm armor-piercing bullets he had devoted his efforts to develop, he did not take those 100mm armor-piercing bullets to heart.
However, what he didn't expect was that it was precisely those 100mm armor-piercing bullets that he didn't think was reliable and careless, that actually pierced the composite armor with outstanding performance developed by Zhu Haifeng and Qin Jingbin in one fell swoop, not only that, but Zhu Haifeng and Qin Jingbin, who were originally distinct from him, also ran over to apologize to themselves as if they had changed people. He also kept saying that all the armor-piercing theories of those long-rod shell-out armor-piercing bullets were placed on his head Zhao Rusong.
Although Zhao Rusong is a person who specializes in technology, he basically ignores other things, is stereotypical and boring, has a strange temper and is not easy to get along with, and is a typical technical nerd, but it does not mean that he can't understand anything. Just listened to Zhu Haifeng and Qin Jingbin's narration, and then recalled the fact that his assistant ran out for two hours before coming back, Zhao Rusong still didn't understand who was doing all this behind the scenes:
"This little Lu, what's the trouble, does he think that he is so small-minded as an old man?"
After seeing through all this, Zhao Rusong couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, although he understood that this was Lu Jiadong's kindness, not only to save his face lost due to the failure of the 120mm armor-piercing bullet test, but also to use the success of the 100mm armor-piercing bullet. As well as the related technical theory of long-rod deshelling armor-piercing projectiles, further improving and consolidating his position in the leading group of new tanks and even in the field of ammunition as a whole.
If ordinary people receive such a big olive branch, they will follow, but he, Zhao Rusong, can't accept it anyway, because he knows that these theories and achievements are not his, even if Lu Jiadong agrees, even if no one knows, even if it can bring unimaginable glory. He would never accept it, for no other reason. It's just that the principle of being rigorous and realistic in my heart is the same:
"Deputy Director Zhu, Director Qin, you have misunderstood!" When Zhu Haifeng and Qin Jingbin's words paused slightly, Zhao Rusong sighed and said:
"The principles you mentioned were not proposed by me, but by Chief Master Lu Jiadong Lu first!"
"Chief Master Lu?" Listening to Zhao Rusong's words, Zhu Haifeng and Qin Jingbin were stunned at first. Then they glanced at each other, and then both of them smiled intriguingly, and then Qin Jingbin looked at Zhao Rusong, who had a serious face on the other side, and explained with a smile:
"Don't worry, Professor Zhao, Chief Master Lu has already said it just now!"
"Did you say that?" this time it was Zhao Rusong's turn to be surprised. Looking at Zhu Haifeng and Qin Jingbin incredulously, he only felt that Lu Jiadong had changed his temper this time, you must know that before the test, he had persuaded Lu Jiadong several times, so that this promising young man should not only focus on the official position,
also has to have some prestige academically, but looking at Lu Jiadong's performance at that time, he didn't seem to care, but now Lu Jiadong actually recognized it himself, and because of this, Zhao Rusong was shocked, he didn't expect the previous persuasion to work at this time, and then he couldn't believe it, so much so that he repeated the incredible question just now:
"Did he say that?"
"Professor Zhao, Chief Master Lu did say it at the summary meeting after the test just now!" As soon as Zhao Rusong's words fell, Dong Fangzhuo, an assistant who had been standing silent on the side, walked up to Zhao Rusong and explained to Zhao Rusong with a look of admiration and excitement:
He also said that although he has a small achievement in military technology, he is not an all-encompassing super expert, and all he thinks of are some broad things, many of which are also whimsical ideas, most of which are not in line with reality, even if there are realistic, there are many loopholes and defects, and the long-rod shell-off tail stabilized armor-piercing bullet is one of them, fortunately, Professor Zhao You can see the merits from it, and correct and improve itοΌβ
"Therefore, we have to learn from you a lot in this regard!" Dong Fangzhuo's voice just fell, and before Zhao Rusong could speak, Zhu Haifeng on the side spoke first:
"Don't always go around in the pile of old papers, don't be complacent, and don't blindly deny new things and theories, look at the world, broaden your thinking, and use facts to prove things right and wrong, rather than relying on experience and likes and dislikes, of course, the most important thing is to cultivate innovative ideas!"
"That's right, we do have a lot of problems in this regard!" As soon as Zhu Haifeng finished speaking, Qin Jingbin took the words, and then nodded approvingly and said sincerely:
"In particular, on the issue of composite armor, General Division Lu was very right in his criticism, because we only focused on the T-72 of the Soviet Union, limiting the threat to the new tank to the current weapons and equipment, but we did not expect that the world's major military powers had already begun to develop a new generation of main battle tanks, especially the development of anti-tank weapons.
There is also rapid progress, take the new 100mm armor-piercing bullet as an example, Chief Lu only inadvertently read a few words in a foreign-related material, and then keenly explored a set of frameworks, but Professor Zhao, you can study this, so as to create a first-class armor-piercing bullet.
However, we can only bury our heads in the pile of old papers and draw circles in the historical merit book, and suddenly look up to find that our things are not as simple as backwardness, therefore, what Chief Master Lu said is indeed thought-provoking, fortunately this is in the testing ground, if it is on the battlefield, then the result is the sorrow of the whole country and the whole nation!"
Qin Jingbin's words were sincere and serious, as if Lu Jiadong's words really baptized his soul, so that he was otherworldly and his soul sublimated, of course, it is not denied that Qin Jingbin himself also has a heart to serve the country, but the utilitarianism is too strong, so when he relayed Lu Jiadong's conversation to Zhao Rusong, there was a paragraph missing, and this paragraph was the driving force that made him give up his current status and title and continue to move towards a higher goal without hesitation:
"Armor, especially composite armor, will be the mainstream direction of the development of tank armor protection technology in the future, of course, the composite armor technology of the Soviet Union is not perfect, and our composite armor technology is the same, because of this, we should work hard in this area to make up for this shortcoming, once we succeed.
It is very likely that in this respect, it will surpass the Soviets, and even surpass the United States and other Western countries, and become the world's leader in composite armor technology.
When Lu Jiadong said these words with a smile, everyone present at the time burst into laughter, only Qin Jingbin silently listened to these words in his ears, melted them into his mind, and remembered them in his heart, catching up with the Soviet Union and the United States, world-class experts, Nobel Prizes, and famous in history, these words that can be called jokes in the eyes of others have given Qin Jingbin a grander ideal and goal.
To be honest, if before the test, if Qin Jingbin heard this, he would probably laugh, but when he saw the power of the new 100mm armor-piercing bullet and listened to Lu Jiadong's thoughts on the causes and consequences of the development of this ammunition, Qin Jingbin strengthened his confidence to move towards a higher goal, since Lu Jiadong and Zhao Rusong can find new theories and ways, why can't he Qin Jingbin, since he has let go of the attachment to utilitarianism in his heart, then why not give it a go and pursue the crown jewel?
It is precisely with this idea that Qin Jingbin's thinking changed faster than Zhu Haifeng, when Lu Jiadong proposed to let them cooperate with the ammunition system, which has achieved the development goal of complementing each other and getting twice the result with half the effort, Qin Jingbin unexpectedly raised his hands in favor, and then persuaded the hesitant Zhu Haifeng, so he came to Zhao Rusong's place.
Of course, Zhao Rusong didn't know what Qin Jingbin was thinking in his heart, but he was stunned for a moment by the orderly words of the three people in front of him, and it took a long time to digest the words of these people, but when he was just about to speak, a familiar and friendly young figure suddenly flashed at the door, so that Zhao Rusong changed the content of what he was about to say in his throat, looked at the young man who walked in slowly, and said in surprise:
"Little Lu, why are you here too?" (To be continued.) )
