"The design work of this range rocket artillery has basically been completed, but when the prototype production was about to be carried out, we began to carry out the design and transformation of the 8028 missile, and at the same time, there was also the design of the long-sky sword...... Relatively speaking, the power of rocket artillery cannot be compared with that of missiles with precision strikes without large-scale and intensive shooting. In order to improve the design accuracy of rocket artillery, then it is necessary to add a guidance system, so what is the difference between rocket artillery and missiles? The cost won't be cheap......"

A rocket with a guidance system is actually a missile.

Even, due to the different things considered in the design, the accuracy of the rocket artillery cannot be compared with the missile, even if the guidance system is added.

Missiles and rockets with the same range, rockets need to use more quantity to achieve their goals, and missiles only use quality to win.

"In addition, we also made a budget at the beginning, if we start the trial production of samples and continue to develop them, the price of such a range rocket artillery has reached 2.2 million yuan, even if it is manufactured more, the price will not drop too much in the future, and the obvious cost-effectiveness ratio is not high...... "Liu Yijiu in order to persuade Long Yaohua and others not to develop a rocket artillery with a range of 400 kilometers, but also to fight.

Six launchers cost tens of millions, and the price is as high as nearly two million US dollars, which is much more expensive than the price of Dongfeng-10, Dongfeng-10 missiles, the military ordered five battalions of configurations, and one is only 4 million!

"That's true, compared with missiles, rocket artillery can intensively kill targets, such as enemy armored clusters, ports, stations, airports and other places where a large number of enemy personnel and materials are concentrated; Compared with howitzers, the operation is lighter and more flexible, the fire is concentrated and fierce, and the multi-barrel salvo of rockets is dispersed over a large area...... The large dispersion area is both an advantage and a disadvantage. The effect of the large dispersion area is the deterioration of shooting accuracy. It is only suitable for firing at targets with a large range, such as tank clusters, enemy logistics supply points, field fortifications, etc. In addition, when the rockets are launched, they are launched with great fanfare, the flames are soaring, the dust is flying, and the positions are easily exposed, and they must be transferred immediately after each launch, unless they completely obtain air supremacy and electronic supremacy on the battlefield. As the former head of rocket artillery research, Du Zhongkun is now responsible for the research and development of missiles in the Ninth Academy, and has a very thorough understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of missiles and rocket artillery.

If they didn't understand this, they would never have given up developing rocket artillery with a longer range.

After all, at that time, China's electronics industry was not good, high-performance computer chips were difficult to obtain, and in order to have stronger weapons and equipment, it was very difficult to develop missiles, but the difficulty of rocket artillery was relatively small.

What's more, domestic research on rocket artillery has a very strong foundation.

In these words, he listed the advantages and disadvantages of rocket artillery.

It's not that the Ninth Academy doesn't study, but the Ninth Academy feels that under the current situation, there is not much research value at all.

A DF-10 is less than twice as expensive as a rocket with a range of 400 km.

What's more, the hit accuracy of the DF-10 can reach within 30 meters, and the landing point of the rocket artillery cannot reach this accuracy.

"You yourself said that it is used to hit a larger range of targets, such as armored clusters, logistics bases, and even airfields and field fortifications, this kind of rocket artillery has a greater role, although the price is a little expensive, but we can also equip a small number of them, specifically to attack these targets, so that the Dongfeng-10 with higher accuracy can hit the enemy's high-value targets and some hidden firepower points, so that the high and low match, isn't it better?" Long Yaohua obviously did not want to give up the research and development of rocket artillery.

The Ninth Academy has such a technical foundation, and already has a design plan, it only needs to carry out trial production, test launch, and then demonstrate improvement.

Now that the work is half done, what can't be done!

Even if the research is successful, the Republic's arsenal can be filled without equipping troops.

In the arsenal of the Republic, the top weapons and equipment, except for nuclear weapons and long-range strategic missiles, are basically all from the Ninth Academy.

Although the number is already very large compared to the unit of the Ninth Academy, for the arsenal of such a huge country as the Republic, the types of these equipment are still a little less.

"It's really not good, it can also be used as a technical reserve, and when war breaks out, it can be vigorously produced when needed. The key is that the technology must be perfected and the effect can be reflected......," Li Yunlong also said helpfully, "Even if the cost is a bit high, if it is used to deal with large targets such as the enemy's airfield, the cost of using missiles will be even higher." Rocket artillery can reduce the cost by more than half. ”

"Missiles can be equipped with cluster bombs!" Liu Yijiu emphasized, "Cluster bombs can also allow missiles to have a larger dispersion area. ”

"Rockets are also equipped with cluster bombs, isn't it more effective and cheaper?"

Several old men in the military made it clear that they did not want to give up the development of rocket artillery with a higher range.

The people of the Ninth Courtyard were indeed a little helpless.

Speaking of the problem of insufficient funds, this can't deceive people at all, under the current technical basis of the Ninth Academy, the cost of developing such rocket artillery will not be too high, and even directly on the basis of Dongfeng-10 and 8208 missiles, plus 336 rocket artillery, the design can be modified soon.

"Or, let's give out all the technical data, and the military will find another unit to study it?" Liu Yijiu sighed secretly in his heart, why are these bigwigs in China so obsessed with all kinds of artillery! "In the current situation, due to the continuous expansion of the combat radius of the fighters, the range of missiles has become more accurate, and it is impossible for the enemy's assembly areas to get too close, and these rocket artillery pieces do not even have a chance to perform at all."

Although the Republic of China pushed this kind of rocket artillery to many air shows in those years, let the world know that the Defender-2, the world's most advanced and long-range rocket artillery, was not installed in China at all.

Maybe that's why.

Now, if it comes out, it will be absolutely impossible to give up the installation with the military bigwigs' preference for rocket artillery.

It's a little strange to think about it, but it's still basically still the influence of the Soviet Continental Army, especially the paranoia about artillery construction. Even in the current USSR, no republic has such a powerful artillery.

"How is that possible! Unless the enemy goes to war with us, there will be no ground war, is this a situation? Either that, they will only use a huge amount of air power and missiles to destroy most of our ground forces at the beginning of the war, and then, just like the guiding ideology of our blue army construction, the ground forces only need to occupy under the threat of the enemy's large-scale formed army......" Qiu Yue shook his head.

This kind of thing is really too difficult to achieve.

Especially the invasion of China by the enemy.

China's current strategic policy for national defense is a defensive strategy, and the huge territory makes it impossible for the enemy to quickly carry out the occupation, and the vast and complex terrain is doomed to make it impossible for any country to easily defeat the Chinese army, so that the Chinese army has no power to fight back at all.

"The construction of the blue army is not to say that it is wrong, but the construction of the blue army is mainly focused on the offensive direction, not the defense. Aren't you guys developing a defense system? Wouldn't it be more effective to replace missiles with lower-cost rockets and launch them intensively to intercept enemy missiles when they are attacking? Long Yaohua seemed to remember something.

Intercept enemy missiles with rocket launches?

It's a shame that these bigwigs can come up with it.

They also fought hard to keep such a powerful rocket artillery project.

In the whole world, even the Soviet Union, which most wanted to develop rocket artillery, did not have such a madness in the development of rockets as the republic.

Yes, just madness.

And, in a few decades, Israel will develop an "Iron Dome" defense system designed specifically for defense against rocket artillery.

However, it seems more feasible to use such rockets to intercept missile attacks?

The missile defense system studied by the Ninth Academy of Sciences is divided into several levels, and at the farthest point, it relies on missiles to accurately intercept them; when missile interception fails, there are more short-range air defense missiles launched intensively, and in the nearest place, they rely on rocket artillery to form a target area in the air in a denser quantity, so as to carry out multi-level and higher-precision interceptions and prevent the enemy's missiles from falling into the air above the target.

This is also to integrate resources by using rocket artillery and anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns, which were mass-produced in China before.

"If such a rocket is added to the interception system, the level of technology will become very high!" Du Zhongkun and the others immediately frowned.

"What's the difficulty? It is somewhat difficult to directly install cluster bombs or fragmentation kill warheads in the warhead, and when intercepting, let the warhead in the front section of the rocket explode, so as to induce or shoot down incoming missiles, and use it on military bases or something, but what if it is used on our missile battleships? Haven't you been emphasizing that the offensive capability and defensive capability of missile battleships must be developed in a balanced manner, and you can't rely on offense to defend......" Long Yaohua once again gave Liu Yijiu a reason to shake his confidence.

Missile battleships!

After the transformation of this thing is completed, it will be even more powerful than the Kirov, which is only equipped with more than 400 missiles of various types, and after the transformation of the Iowa class, it will be equipped with at least 1,000 missiles of various types. In order to defend, all types of anti-aircraft guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, and anti-aircraft missiles are desperately loading on them.

It is a pity that there are no long-range anti-aircraft missiles in China, the Hongqi-9 has not yet come out, and the Ninth Academy does not have the energy to study it.
