Not to mention the protection and firepower, just the maneuverability made Long Yaohua very satisfied.

These tanks are as fast as off-road vehicles, and such a high speed of movement can make the deployment of armored units easier. This also indirectly proves that Liu Yijiu's various performances designed by them are not problematic.

"This kid, if his tank breaks down here, we don't know how much time we're going to waste here!" Li Yunlong did not continue to oppose anything.

The dust outside is high up, and there is no need to follow thousands to eat dust now.

However, the proving ground is not far away.

He was already full of expectations for this kind of tank, but now that he saw that the tank had soared at such a high speed, the engine that had not completed the test and performance test had not stalled due to any problems, and the tank had not broken down, he was naturally able to relax.

The son-in-law's tank is very important.

"In a while, it is estimated that on the test site, these tanks will show better performance, trench crossing ability, climbing ability and many other tests, and they will all show us today." Long Yaohua is looking forward to it even more.

Li Yuming's face was ugly, not only because the off-road vehicle was too bumpy, but also because the tank in front of him did not appear what he wanted to see the most.

Seeing him like this, Chen Shuhao's originally happy face shook his head slightly, thinking about how to communicate with Liu Yijiu and them, maybe this young man and his team can give some development direction to the design plan of the 541 base, which is currently stagnant. On his lips, he unceremoniously poured salt on Li Yuming's heart full of scars, "Sure enough, it is a hero from ancient times, I didn't expect it." Under the auspices of such a young man, this base, which is only a technical reserve, can produce such a good tank in such a short time. This is an honor for our entire nation! ”

Li Yuming gritted his teeth and did not pick up the stubble. just stared at Jeremy Chen, the bastard, with a complicated expression.

The 541 base, which has always been suppressed by their 617 base, has such a schadenfreude mentality, which is really a normal thing.

In the case of a tank taking the lead in a race speed. It didn't take much time to get from the assembly hall inside the base to the proving ground. But it was almost half past ten in the morning when we got here. Liu Yijiu and Qian Dayong sat on the off-road vehicle and drove to the test headquarters halfway up the mountain at the edge of the test site, where they were holding binoculars to observe the situation inside the test site.

The test site is a valley, the whole area is relatively narrow and long, the terrain is not very flat, some places use engineering vehicles to dig some trenches more than two meters wide, at the same time, in some areas have also built a lot of not too big, not too high. Packs of hills with different slopes.

Due to the new construction, there are still many traces of construction everywhere, and it can even be said that the construction has not been completed.

"You kid, how can you run so fast! Can these tanks keep up with this speed all the time? When Long Yaohua and the others arrived at the test site, Liu Yijiu did not wait for them to arrive before starting the test.

There are too many items to test, and the time required to be tested is too long.

"Chief, from the moment we left the base and entered the road, our experiments have already begun. That was a test of the tank's road speed. Our tank is designed to perform and can travel up to 480 kilometers with a full tank without adding auxiliary fuel tanks. The auxiliary fuel tank on the back butt is fully refueled, but it can run 650 kilometers ......" Liu Yijiu directly changed the topic.

It's not interesting to dwell on things that don't need to be. All kinds of tests have to go through the accumulation of countless trials, and yet they don't have that much time right now.

If you can't get the approval of these two bigwigs as soon as possible. Further recognized by more bigwigs of the military, financial allocations were made to them to produce a batch of experimental tanks for further testing, and they could only start the development of a new generation of heavy tanks while continuing performance tests.

Have money on hand. Nature cannot be stopped in the current situation.

The American M1 tank, after the completion of tests with two prototypes. Further modifications were made in the direction of some improvements proposed by Liu Yijiu, and a production order for 110 was obtained.

Funding for the military of the republic is a big problem. Liu Yijiu also did not expect the Republic to issue too many orders, but the first batch of at least 20 vehicles and two companies were enough.

The war between the southwest and the monkeys is not over, the Soviets' T72 was stolen by the special forces of the republic more than a dozen, and several were destroyed, this kind of thing has affected their T72 tank export business a lot, and the Soviets have a lot of tank experts here to investigate the situation, and strive to upgrade their T72 as soon as possible.

And the border between Vietnam and China will also become a testing ground for their new tanks.

Liu Yijiu hoped that a batch of tanks would be sent to the southwestern border for combat tests, and that some tanks in the north would also be tested for combat and other comprehensive tests.

So, now we have to show some of the capabilities of this tank.

Protection or something, they definitely can't be attacked with these tanks.

Fire tests, this is not a problem, the ability to shoot on the move, the 125 mm tank gun stabilization system, these are all able to be demonstrated very quickly.

"Director Li, do we only have an appearance in this tank? Of course, I know that we will definitely not be able to compare with you, after all, your 617 tank production base is the best place for our domestic technology. We hope that Director Li can give us advice and see what needs to be further improved in these tanks...... "After seeing the speed of these tanks, Li Yuming began to keep a distance from several people in charge of the Ninth Academy base.

He thought so, but Qian Dayong and Jiang Ming did not let him go, and after the tank showed good trench crossing performance, climbing performance and wading performance, he took the initiative to find Li Yuming in the satisfactory praise of a group of general staff and logistics department and even the bosses of the Fifth Machine Department.

Li Yuming's face seemed to be able to wring out water, but he didn't stop there, showing weakness in order to seek peace, but sneered, "To achieve such speed, trench crossing ability and climbing performance, any tank production base will do." It was only necessary to reduce the weight of the tank's armor. There is also a tank gun, your tank, carrying a tank gun weighing more than two tons, plus the entire turret and ammunition compartment weighing more than ten tons, a 580-horsepower diesel engine can run at such a speed, which is very surprising! Lao Chen, don't you think? ”

Chen Shuhao hurriedly shook his head and told everyone that he was just a manager and didn't know technology.

Li Yuming is going to pull him to fight with the Ninth Academy, he won't do such a thing, anyway, the fate of the 541 base is doomed, and the national strategic focus is shifted to the economy, which will make their already stretched funds even less, but their production of civilian products has brought good benefits, and now with the Longwei tank of the Ninth Academy, their research funds are likely to be cut off.

There is no need to get too stiff with Liu Yijiu, a young man, and these old men who are not low-key at all.

"Oh? Director Li, is this doubting that our tanks are just a façade? Jiang Ming's face also became very dark.

The bastard suspected that they had lightened the tank's armor and put a cannon on it that couldn't fire!

My sister-in-law can bear it, but my uncle won't do it.

"It's not a question of doubting or not. Or did you put the 1500 hp compression diesel engine you got from the Americans? If so, I wonder, how much space do you have in this tank to carry twenty shells? ”

Li Yuming gritted his teeth and didn't believe what he saw with his eyes. Even if he believed in his heart that the other party had really researched it, he wanted to know what kind of technology was on this tank, so that their 617 base could get these technologies into their hands through the hands of military bosses, so as to develop a higher-performance tank on their basis.

Of course, this is a possibility, and the tanks of the Ninth Academy really have a direction of these performances.

And if the people of the Ninth Academy really deceived the superior chief, his words would be very lethal.

When Long Yaohua heard this, he glanced at him meaningfully, but did not speak, Li Yunlong gritted his teeth, with an expression of wanting to kick him to death, and finally did not move. As for Liu Qingshan, the corners of his mouth twitched violently.

How did Li Yuming become like this?

"Order them to fire a few shots for the chiefs!" When Liu Yijiu heard this, he immediately put down the telescope in his hand, picked up the wireless communication walkie-talkie in Li Rui's hand, and ordered the tank that was climbing and wading in the test site.

Five kilometers away, on the ridges, there are a number of tank targets only four square meters square, which have been painted white with lime.

As soon as Liu Yijiu's order was issued, a tank that was still in an 80-centimeter-deep puddle began to quickly go ashore, and another tank that was climbing a 30-degree slope also accelerated its speed with white smoke emitting from behind its buttocks.

"Car No. 1, target No. 9, shooting on the move, car No. 2, target No. 1 ......," Liu Yijiu ordered the two cars.

After his order was over, the bigwigs with a Type 78 military multi-purpose telescope just developed by Factory 298 began to look at the tank in the middle of the test site.

The tank that came out of the puddle was the No. 1 car, the target was the No. 9 target, three kilometers to their right, under the observation of the bigwigs, the tank did not change direction at all, and rushed towards a slope close to forty degrees not far ahead, the speed was very fast, while marching, the tank turret rotated to the right, and at the same time, the elevation angle of the gun barrel continued to expand, the muzzle of the gun was raised high, and without waiting for Liu Yijiu to continue to order, the first shell of the Longwei type was fired in the march.
