Chapter 310: Let's Go to China
With the gradual rise of the 52 times caliber revolution that changed the course of the development of the world's artillery, the major military powers have launched relevant research on this, but just when some countries with a strong foundation are ready to invest resources to carry out substantial research and development, a news that the technology related to the 52 times caliber 155mm artillery has long been registered for a patent has spread among the intelligence agencies and military industrial departments of various countries.
Of course, the relevant departments of various countries that have just received this news do not believe it, and all send personnel to the patent department to verify, and the results are not only consistent with the rumors, but what is even more surprising is that the technology has been registered as a patent more than a year ago.
As for the holder of this patent, there is an extremely mysterious veil, which can only be known through the limited public information of the patent that this is a Chinese named Mr.LU, and the rest of the content such as age, place of residence, contact information and other contents can be said to be unknown.
But even so, the intelligence agencies of various countries still believe that this Mr.LU is not only the actual developer of the 52 times caliber 155mm artillery, but also China's top and outstanding military technology experts, especially in the field of artillery and low-speed ballistics.
However, although the intelligence agencies of various countries have given a general definition of the direction of this mysterious patent holder, it is not helpful to share the technology that the military industry department is most concerned about, you must know that the military industry departments of the major military powers are staring at the commanding heights of 52 times the caliber 155mm artillery technology, and are running wildly, all trying to seize the opportunity in the relevant technical field, after all, if they occupy the technology patents of one or two key projects, then for a long time in the future, whether it is the procurement of their own armed forces, or the international arms market, they can grab great benefits。
Because in the eyes of these so-called developed countries, China, a country whose overall strength is still very backward, although it has developed a new artillery that leads the world for the first time, their thinking is still very solid. Especially in the field of intellectual property, I don't even know the basic concepts, let alone apply for patent protection.
It is precisely on the basis of the above expectations and judgments that the military industrial departments and arms companies of the major military powers have all regarded China's picture of "new generation artillery" as a starting gun. For a time, in the field of 52 times caliber 155mm artillery technology, it can be said that you are chasing after me and not giving in to each other.
However, what these first-class industrial departments and arms companies that had a fluke mentality never expected was that China had not only completed the registration of technology patents with a caliber of 52 times long ago, but also registered all the relevant supporting technologies. In the face of the reality of China's mysterious Mr.LU going his own way and leaving others with no way out,
In the face of the new artillery technology that can create more than countless waves of dollars in the future, all the leading industrial departments and arms companies have been firmly grasped by China in this way, and they all hang their chests and are annoyed, and they can only look up to the sky and sigh in desperation: How can the Chinese be so smart!
But no matter how much the military industrial departments and arms companies of these countries lament, the ironclad facts are there, and it is absolutely impossible to shake them. In the future, it is not impossible for countries with technological strength to develop their own equipment, but the scope of equipment is limited to their own country, and once it is introduced to the international arms market, it will face endless lawsuits by patent holders around the world, while in the Western world, which attaches great importance to intellectual property rights, it is a judgment on similar lawsuits, without exception, the infringer loses the lawsuit, and the compensation and joint and several liability it bears is even more difficult for any institution and company to bear.
Of course, not all countries respect intellectual property rights, for example, the Soviet Union, which is at the other end of the world, treats this thing as nothing, but even if the Soviet Union has the ability to develop a 52-caliber 155mm gun. However, the ultra-conservative and dogmatic thinking in the Soviet army made them hold on to the 152mm caliber standard, so that almost no one in the field of 155mm artillery could challenge China!
Therefore, many people in the West who are deeply involved in military salaries assert. Because China has all the 52 times caliber technology, it will dominate the global large-caliber artillery market in the future, and this pattern will not only exist for one or two years, I am afraid that it will be like this for more than ten years, until the birth of a new generation of revolutionary artillery, can be effectively terminated!
Because of this. The first industrial departments and munitions companies that were originally enthusiastic about the 52 times caliber 155mm artillery were like being poured a large bucket of ice water, and they cooled down in an instant, and the 52 times technological revolution that had just been set off was also deliberately ignored by these developed countries, which seemed a little quiet.
Although the mainstream media is still dominated by the fiery Iran-Iraq war, some small media who hope to be different and achieve the eyeball effect have stared at this technological revolution that is quietly spreading between the silent and silent, and have carried out a series of reports, but because the influence of these small media is too small, coupled with the deliberate suppression of the world's major arms giants, these reports have not attracted much attention in the world!
However, even if these reports about China's new artillery did not have much influence, they were still printed in black and white on the paper and disseminated, and some people would read them no matter what, but the situation in which they read them was not the same.
The first person to find these reports invaluable was a wealthy Islamic businessman living in Marseille, France, but behind this usually mild-mannered and extremely religious Muslim, there was a very secret identity - the special liaison of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps in France.
When he saw these reports, he immediately felt that he had discovered a priceless treasure that had been hidden for a long time, so this liaison took advantage of his status as a French citizen to quickly collect all the reports on the Sino-Vietnamese artillery battles and China's new artillery, carefully sorted them out, and finally sent them to Tehran, the capital of Iran, thousands of miles away, through secret channels
Tehran is now shrouded in the haze of war, since the war began in September last year, it has been less than a year, in the face of the fierce wave of attacks by Iraq's elite troops, Iran has tried its best to finally resist the pace of Iraq's attack, but it has suffered extremely heavy losses, especially in terms of weapons and equipment.
However, in the face of such a huge consumption of equipment, Iran, which does not have the production capacity of weapons and equipment, has not been able to replenish it in a timely and effective manner, and in addition to the arms embargo of the United Nations Security Council on the surface, the hostile relationship between Iran and the United States has also played a great role.
In addition, after the victory of the Islamic Revolution, the policy of the third way, which did not rely on the East or the West, and the practice of sparing no effort to export the revolution to the surrounding areas, also annoyed the neighboring Soviet Union, and it can be said that the whole world has offended Iran, and it is not easy to obtain weapons and equipment!
But as the saying goes, a living person can't let urine suffocate to death, and since there is no one to help, then we have to think of other ways, otherwise the whole of Iran is in danger of being destroyed, so Iran's intelligence agencies have sent a large number of personnel to carry out secret procurement and smuggling of weapons and equipment all over the world.
Although certain results have been achieved, this sneaky and illegal way of obtaining weapons is not only limited in quantity, but also difficult to ensure stability, not to mention that the heavy equipment that Iran urgently needs cannot be transported through such channels, so Iran continues to look for a stable source of weapons and equipment!
However, it is easy to find a stable source of supply of weapons and equipment, but it is more difficult to really do than to ascend to the sky, you must know that this source of supply of weapons and equipment must have a strong industrial base, otherwise it will not be possible to produce and manufacture related weapons and equipment, but throughout the world, there are only a handful of countries that can have this ability, and most of them are standing on the opposite side of Iran, and it is impossible to help Iran!
Because of this, Major General Mohammad Jarad, head of the Armament Planning Department of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, who was in charge of this work, had a terrible headache, and he had just walked out of the office of the Supreme Commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran.
"Now Iraq has formed an overwhelming advantage over us in terms of artillery, several recent attacks by the Revolutionary Guards have been repelled by Iraqi artillery fire, those children who participated in the jihad suffered heavy casualties, and we lack effective fire support weapons, the Supreme Leader believes that this situation can not be sustained, and I must also have the necessary fire support equipment, so I entrust you with an order to complete the introduction of new artillery within two months, I repeat, this is the Supreme Leader's order, and you only have two months!”
After recalling these words, thinking about the attitude of the Supreme Commander just now, which did not allow himself to be justified at all, Major General Mohammad Jarad could not help but shudder, and at this moment, one of his full-time secretaries hurriedly came to Jarad with a stack of papers, and before he had time to take a breath, he handed the documents in his hand to Jarald:
"General, this is the information that the special liaison officer in France has just sent back!"
After listening to the secretary's words, Jarrad didn't care too much, but just received it in his hand as usual, but when he opened the stack of documents, his deep eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't wait to order the secretary in front of him:
"Hurry up, pack my bags, and we'll go to China!" )
