At the beginning, the tanks that were just assembled had to go through a period of running-in, especially since these tanks didn't seem to have done all kinds of static tests after they were assembled, and the tests didn't see much more.

This made Li Yuming despise this group of people in the base of the Ninth Courtyard very much.

I didn't even know the charter of the test, and I dared to talk about building the world's most advanced tank.

The ignorant are fearless, and they are talking about people like Liu Yijiu.

Now in the process of driving slowly, there is no running-in, and he starts to accelerate suddenly, how can he not laugh at him?

Chen Shuhao looked at the expression of Li Yuming who was sitting next to him, his lips moved, and finally he didn't say anything. The technical process and a full set of drawings of the 541 base are derived from the 617 tank base, which is the largest tank base in the country, and the relevant funds are given priority to them every year.

The 541 base is a third-line project, which exists for the country's combat readiness, and it is naturally impossible to invest heavily when the third-line is gradually becoming unimportant, and it will be an astronomical amount of funds to comprehensively upgrade the technical system, and they have no way to focus on the development of the state, and the tanks produced will be driven to the border to confront the Soviet Union 617 to grab funds.

Now the military department has let them partially convert military to civilian use, and the production of civilian products has revitalized the dying 541 base.

Although the new generation of main battle tanks is still being studied, there is no specific direction until now, and the rising star of the Ninth Academy has directly produced the finished product.

He is not Li Yuming, he lives with himself. Other units that think they can't figure it out can't do it either, and they don't know very well about the performance of the tanks here. They didn't even know about this base for a long time. Looking at the modification of this 59 tank, it can alarm the boss of the Fifth Machine Department and the head of the Logistics Department. Long Yaohua, the boss of the General Staff, can know that this is definitely not a simple equipment.

It's not like Li Yuming thinks that they just changed their appearance, and the inner thing hasn't changed at all.

Young people like Liu Yijiu did not come out to refute, but Qian Dayong, who was in charge of R&D and production, and Jiang Ming, the chief designer, jumped out to oppose it, which cannot but cause people to think deeply.

Especially now, these tanks have only been driving a few kilometers and start to accelerate, which is clearly the rhythm of testing now.

"What is this kid going to do? The engine didn't warm up, and they didn't test the engine long enough, what if it broke down on the road? Li Yunlong was very dissatisfied with his fast son-in-law.

To be sassy. I've got a proving ground, too.

Start testing the road speed now, it doesn't matter if they eat a little dust, it's important not to break the engines of these tanks.

"Whatever, we're here to see them test, not to guide them to test. Professionals know their own designs better than we do. Long Yaohua said lightly.

Seeing the tank in front of him accelerating, Liu Yijiu's car also accelerated, and directly ordered the driver in front to speed up.

The old-fashioned 212 jeep has no problem running these mountain trails, but it's simply not fast.

The huge roar of the engines of the two tanks in front raised the dust on the road, and the speed soon reached fifty kilometers.

Liu Yijiu saw that the tank in front of him no longer increased his speed. His brow furrowed tightly, and he didn't rush to let them continue to pick up speed, but was ready to wait for a while in front of him to drive without any problems.

There wasn't enough time for engine testing, which was a hard hit. And this 780 horsepower engine, this is the first design, the first use. In the engine test alone, the results of the running experiments are good. But from design to production, it only took more than four months.

Production of engines. Many should have been timed to eliminate casting stresses and the stresses generated during machining, and to alter the internal microstructure of the material. As a result, because of the problem of time, they directly adopted the manual time limit to deal with it.

This treatment method is not too big a problem, and it will not have much impact on the performance of the tank engine in the short term, but it still has a relatively big impact on the long life of the entire tank engine.

Military products are not other products, and all processes have to be done step by step. Every bit of performance improvement is extremely difficult.

This is also the reason why the Republic's production capacity in high-end weapons and equipment cannot compete with the Americans. The Americans don't care about that little bit, and the 59 tanks of the republic have been used for half a time and have not been decommissioned much!

The 580-horsepower engine could not bring out the design performance of the Tonme, so in this case, they also had to simplify this production process, and change the natural failure that took years to only a few dozen hours of artificial aging.

The idea of the project team was to get the tank running first, and then gradually refine the key parts to further improve the performance.

The huge territory of the republic and its backward economic strength required that all kinds of weapons and equipment could be manufactured quickly and on a large scale at a low price.

"Accelerated again, this kid thinks those tanks in front of him are off-road vehicles, no, if you run like this, you have to scrap these engines! Liu Yijiu, hurry up and let the tank in front stop Lao Tzu! Li Yunlong and Long Yaohua were chatting about some things related to the Ninth Courtyard, there was no air conditioning in this car, and in May, which had begun to get hot, they all opened the windows and leaned against the natural wind blowing in outside.

Speak louder.

Without them noticing, the tanks in front of them accelerated again.

The dull roar of the engine, the billowing black smoke behind the buttocks, and the dust kicked up high filled the air with an unpleasant smell of oil.

Li Yunlong immediately stuck his head out of the car window and shouted at Liu Yijiu's car, which had become hazy in the smoke and dust in front of him.

"Poof! Bah! Holy shit! Li Yunlong's old face was thicker than the inverted corner of the city wall, and he was also beaten by the large particles of dust outside.

The mouth full of dust made Li Yunlong's face very ugly. In China, this is also very common.

"Well, they're the ones who tested it, and they know what to do." Long Yaohua smiled in his heart, but his face was very flat.

When Li Yunlong saw him, the corners of his mouth twitched, "Old thing, you can laugh if you want to, isn't it just a mouthful of ashes, I think when I was fighting little devils, I even ate several mouthfuls of the soil blown up by the shells, and I don't care about this......"

Long Yaohua grinned, his eyes slitted with a smile.

"Director Liu, if this continues, will there be problems with these tanks?" Seeing the tank rolling up the smoke and dust in front of him, Jiang Ming's hand tightly grasped the handrail on the door, the tires of the jeep were already narrow, and the shock absorption system was not very good, driving at a speed of more than 60 kilometers per hour on the bumpy mountain road, and if he was not careful, he would have to overturn.

He was not embarrassed to tell Li Rui to drive slowly, if the car couldn't even catch up with the tank on the road, it would be a little laughing.

The vast majority of the jeeps in the army of the Republic are old-fashioned 212s!

"What is the maximum road speed we designed?" Liu Yijiu was also bumped by this car very uncomfortable, and vowed again in his heart that he must make a jeep or off-road vehicle with comfortable riding performance as soon as possible, at least like the Warrior.

It's a shame on yourself.

"75 kilometers per hour......," Qian Dayong said with a pale face.

"It's very good to be able to run 70 kilometers per hour on a dirt road like this. These tanks must have good penetration capabilities! Liu Yijiu said lightly, then picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand, and ordered the tank that was running wildly in front of him to continue to speed up, as fast as he could, the road to the test site in the mountain was relatively wide, and the gravel road that had just been repaired was not worried that these guys would not be able to control it and drive the tank out of the road.

The road was originally carved out at the bottom of the ravine.

"Director, if it goes on like this, in case it ......," Jiang Ming gritted his teeth and said to Liu Yijiu in a pleading tone.

It's not a good thing for them.

"Now it's not just about the maximum road speed, it's about the flexibility and reliability of the hydraulic suspension system and the operating system we designed." The bumpy car made Liu Yijiu's stomach churn, and he forced himself to squeeze out this sentence between his teeth.

Anyway, it's the testing stage, and these roads are relatively wide, just for their heavy guns and tanks to open up a testing ground, to test the flexibility of the tank, first of all, you have to test the handling.

"Comrade, can you drive a little slower?" The bumpy car made Chen Shuhao very uncomfortable, and Li Yuming gritted his teeth and insisted on it.

He didn't want the jeep to slow down, but wanted the tank in front of him to break down.

Jeeps can't outrun tanks on such roads, which is something to be proud of for them who study tanks.

However, this tank was not developed by the largest tank research and production base in their republic, but by a base that had not even produced tank parts before, and just drew some drawings for nothing to produce some unimportant supporting parts for them!

At least, it has now been proven that the performance of this tank is much better than the Type 69 tank, which is not massively equipped with troops, colleagues, much faster than the new generation of main battle tanks they are designing!

"Slow down, comrade, now it seems that it will not be easy for us to catch up with them. In the future, such tanks will appear on the battlefield, and I don't know how many tanks will be able to catch up, and I don't know how many tanks will be able to escape their pursuit! Long Wei, this name is really right! Long Yaohua sighed, his face full of joy. (To be continued......)
