Chapter 335: R&D Returns?
Yes, Knight XV,
It was the time and space before Li Fanyu, the Dwayne Johnson in Fast and Furious 5 - the guy who was two laps bigger than the Humvee. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Known as the king of off-roading.
The car has a length of more than six meters and a width of 2.5 meters. It is no exaggeration to say that the size of this car is about to get out of the category of off-road vehicles.
In terms of size, it is simply a small armored car!
Corresponding to this size is his curb weight of almost six tons. And in order to give speed to this steel monster, the Knight XV is equipped with a V10 engine with a displacement of 6.8. With a maximum horsepower of 406 hp and a maximum power of 300 kW, this big guy can carry a weight of six tons and run a maximum speed of 170 KM/h.
For such a huge model, this speed cannot be said to be slow.
Thanks to the non-load-bearing body, full-time all-wheel drive system, and the V10 engine, the Knight XV is truly familiar with extreme terrain such as crater roads and sandy deserts.
Of course, these performances are only the basic qualities of this car.
The most commendable thing about Knight XV is his innate gene, protectiveness.
That's right, this is a car that even if it is standard, the safety level can reach international level II.
In the time and space before Li Fanyu, the body chassis of this model was made of thickened bulletproof steel plates. The front bumper and wheel arches are made of expensive fiberglass. All the windows are directly made of 64 mm thick laminated bulletproof glass.
And the effect of this performance is that it can directly resist the NATO standard caliber of 7.62x51 mm hard steel nuclear bullets, or about 10 kilograms of TNT.
In Li Fanyu's view, this car can fully meet the needs of the army in terms of performance.
If you want to say what is lacking... Ahem, it's up to them to see if they can afford it......
At a time when the history of automobiles remained unchanged, the car sold for almost $400,000 in the United States. However, because of the large displacement and ultra-high import tax, it will be a fool when it enters the country, and the selling price directly breaks through the 20 million mark......
Of course, this is off topic.
Since Li Fanyu wants to produce this car now, he can't talk about the domestic price of the previous time and space.
If you want to say that the Knight 15 car, the original design concept is not actually based on military vehicles, but to meet the needs of the rich for safe travel.
To be precise, it's a bodyguard car.
It is from this point of view that, in addition to the performance aspect, the Knight XV also has an extremely luxurious interior, what Wilton cashmere carpet, AM leather, 6-way adjustable seats, Alpine-DVD navigation system, night vision and a full-angle camera at the rear of the car......
Anyway, the most expensive and best things, everything that can be matched are matched,
The rush is exactly the same as described in Li Chengru's classic lines in "Big Names";
Choose the best materials, hire French designers, and create the most luxurious interiors! We don't kill sheep over two years old, we want freshly weaned lambskins. What Wilton carpets, ALPINEdvd navigation systems, Swarovski crystal ashtrays, everything you can put on him!
The boss can only sit alone in the back row, and the front row gives him a bodyguard in the car; big bald, with a big gold chain, to sit in the co-pilot, if someone goes to the car to make do, no matter if there is anything to do, you have to say to them: "What do you see?", an authentic Northeast Tieling dialect, double murderous aura!
……
Ahem, it's far away.
Anyway, the interior concept of Knight XV is not to seek the most expensive, but to ask for more expensive......
If it is used as a military vehicle, it can greatly reduce the cost by removing these useless parts without affecting the hard performance.
Taking the price of 400,000 knives in the United States as an example, the Knight XV should be able to directly discount it in two pairs - 200,000 yuan, which is equivalent to about 1.4 million yuan.
And what Li Fanyu calculated in his heart is this price. But even so, a knight fifteen for ten Warriors is more than enough.
The car is definitely a good car, but I just don't know if the troops can use it.
......
The next day, Li Fanyu took the drawings and some small apprehensions to the address that the big chimney on the phone told him.
It was a guest house of the Amagi Military Division.
It was the first time for Li Fanyu to come to this kind of place, and he took a look around curiously, feeling... It's like I've traveled back in time to the 90s. Everything in this room, except for the phone, which can be called new, looks like a period drama filming set.
It's so shabby.
The tea jar and basin are still enamel!
Looking at the design drawing in his hand, the big chimney's brows furrowed into a Sichuan shape, and he habitually pulled out a cigarette. As soon as the crumpled Hongtashan was put in his mouth, Li Fanyu coughed heavily.
He skimmed Li Fanyu and took the cigarette down. He put it on the table along with the lighter in his hand and smacked his lips.
"You're... Knight Fifteen... It was designed yesterday?"
Li Fanyu spread his hands, "Yes, is there a problem?"
The big chimney grinned rarely, and said with a smile: "If you can design it, you can definitely make it, right?"
Hey my temper!
Li Fan laughed stupidly, "Look at what you said, dare me to play with you? Why do I bother to draw it if I can't do it? You look at it, the general performance parameters are marked, and it is 100% impossible to make a test run, but eight or nine is not far from ten." ”
Well, it can only be said that eight or nine are not far from ten.
After all, if it is needed by the troops, there are too many flashy designs on Knight XV to remove. Whether it is appearance or performance, there need to be certain adjustments.
"What is the price estimate......
Here it comes!
I knew the price would be an obstacle!
Li Fanyu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This price is not very accurate, but according to my estimate of the price of domestic accessories and the assembly of the whole vehicle, the difference between the top and bottom is less than 200,000." ”
The big chimney nodded, although his face was not shocked, but his heart was already turbulent.
Before his trip, he was actually dissatisfied with his mission.
Not for anything else, he had a hundred doubts in his heart about the higher-level departments directly handing over the project of replacing military vehicles to Zhengxin.
In his opinion, Zhengxin must have left the relationship.
Therefore, he can't look down on Li Fanyu in his heart; he has seen too many of this kind of people who have been military quartermasters for so many years, and he has a lot of money by virtue of his connections and backstage.
But now it seems that the kid in front of him still has a little ink in his stomach.
Judging from the design drawings, this big guy must be able to meet the standards of military vehicle replacement. It can even be said that it is superb.
If the real car can really be made like this kid said, yes, it's definitely a good car!
Twenty years ago, people and foreign countries relied on high-performance military vehicles to play integrated logistics operations, and the battlefield advanced rapidly. On the battlefield in Iraq, the United States relied on two military vehicles, the hippopotamus and the hyena, but it produced the fastest advance speed in the history of the war.
After the outbreak of the war, it took only a dozen days from the intervention of ground forces to the capture of Baghdad, the capital of Iraq. This speed of advancement is extremely impressive.
The Iraq War is a perfect illustration of the influence of high-tech weapons and military equipment on modern warfare.
Therefore, as long as a Chinese soldier has to face up to one problem -- if war breaks out one day, what will we fight for?
Unlike the world hegemon like the United States, because there is no need for foreign war, China's defense spending is not so generous.
Take the Warriors as an example, it was originally developed by Beiqi to meet training and daily transportation. It is said that this model should have been eliminated a long time ago. It is even said that when the Warrior was just delivered, the United States was already equipped with the Hippopotamus and Hyena, the third-generation multi-purpose military vehicles that far surpassed the Warrior in size and performance.
But why has the Chinese military vehicle not been replaced?
It's not that there's a shortage of money!
So, he sniffled, pressed the addiction down, and asked tentatively: "How much money will be needed for this car, if it is to be developed?"
Li Fanyu's face was apprehensive, and it instantly turned into a bewildered face.
"What? to return the R&D funds?" (To be continued.) )
