Chapter 2153: Capture a Market

"Boom"

At this moment, a violent explosion reached the ears of reporters and soldiers, and the reporters, who were caught off guard, suddenly stood unsteadily and sat on the ground.

Bomb! We were attacked by the damned Iraqis! The war correspondent, who has rich battlefield experience, quickly popped up with such a thought in his mind, and the whole person fell to the ground at once, and at the same time shouted to his companions, "Bomb! Lie down! ”

It was only after waiting for a while that the reporter realized that something was wrong with the situation, and the explosions did not rush into his head one after another as he had in his previous impression, but rushed into his head, but a burst of cheers.

Cheers? The reporter immediately urged sadly: Could it be that the shell just now reimbursed all the soldiers? But the familiar English made the reporter realize in a trance that he seemed to have made a mistake.

When the reporter raised his head, he was surprised to find that there were several people around him, in addition to his colleagues, there were also several soldiers of the United States, who were looking at him with a strange look...... It seems like I just did something wrong? Being stared at with such strange eyes, the reporter's first reaction is to "Do I have flowers on my face?" "Almost.

When I got here, although I don't know what happened just now, the reporter also understands that it seems that he has made a big fuss, and foreigners are also good-looking, but they are naturally slightly inferior to the Chinese, if this situation happens to the Chinese, they must feel embarrassed and embarrassed, but the foreigner is very open to this kind of thing, patting the dust on his body. He asked the photographer with a complacent expression, "What happened just now?" ”

"They bombed that car." The photographer's face was full of eagerness and adoration, "It looks like the car is fine." ”

"What?" The reporter was stunned for a moment. Suddenly yelled at the photographer, "What do you want me to do?" Hurry up and send a car! ”

The bomb must have been planted by the soldiers themselves, in order to test the explosion-proof performance of this car when it was attacked by a roadside bomb, and after a moment of effort, the reporter figured out what was going on with the explosion just now. Oh my God, what a blast of news? A military vehicle that can withstand roadside bomb attacks? The reporter understood the significance of this news too well, and at this moment he was extremely glad that he had come to the scene of this experiment.

After yelling at the photographer, the reporter hurriedly pulled away from the crowd and looked at the desert yellow camouflage painted military vehicle among them. As far as the eye can see, a large crater was blown out of the rear tire of the car, and the right rear wheel was deeply sunk into the pit, if this pit was a crater that was blown up by the bomb explosion just now. Then the bomb just now will not be less than 4 kg of TNT explosives. But the reporter was immediately shocked: under the destruction of 4 kg of TNT explosives, the car seemed to be intact?

From the outside, the rear bumper of the car seems to be a little loose, and the explosion caused some deformation of the tail light cluster and steel plate on the side of the explosion, and the tail light cluster became sparse. This is normal, if such a violent explosion did not even blow up the tail lights, it is a little too incredible.

It seems that I didn't expect this explosion to be such a result, and I was stunned for a long time. Only then did I see a non-commissioned officer directing a soldier to the car to see the posture. It seems to be trying to see if we can get the car started again.

Can it be started again? Not only the fighters, but even the journalists were equally nervous. Unlike the merchants, who were scheming with each other all day for their own benefit, the warriors had a simple idea, if the car could withstand even the explosion of a roadside bomb, then they would ride this car as long as they went out from now on.

"Hit ......" was accompanied by the sound of a starter driving the engine, and the hearts of the fighters were raised, but two seconds later, the car did not start, and the first ignition was unsuccessful. …,

"How?" The master chief shouted at the soldier in the driver's cab position, "Is there any hope?" ”

"Try again, I think it's about the same." The soldier in the driver's seat replied, and with these words, the sound of the starter sounded again.

A second after the "......boom", with a deep and powerful roar of the V12 engine, the car was running again, and everything was normal.

"Good!" Seeing this scene, all the soldiers and reporters who came to interview were shocked: after such a bomb, the car was still able to start normally?

The car was able to start, and it seemed that it was a little unexpected by the soldier who was driving, moving back and forth, gearing, gas pedal, and the right rear wheel was actually "lifted" out of the deep crater, and when the right rear wheel drove out of the deep pit, which would be as huge as the wheels of a large truck, everyone noticed that the special alloy steel wheel of the right rear wheel of the car had been moderately deformed, and the special military rubber tire of the military formula was torn off a piece the size of the sea bowl.

How serious is it? How powerful is it? The soldiers were fine, they worked with weapons all day long, and they knew the power of explosives, but for the reporters who came to interview them, they couldn't be calm: they hadn't seen the miserable appearance of the Humvee military vehicles after being bombed on the side of the road, but the car provided by the Alice Group was completely beyond their knowledge.

This is a military bulletproof car! This is a real military bulletproof car! At this moment, such an idea came to the minds of the reporters, the reporters of the major media in the United States in various battlefields around the world have a good relationship with the local Mi army, and often travel by military vehicles, but every time they sit in the Humvee military vehicle in the past, they are always a little worried in their hearts, lest they will be reimbursed by a poorly made roadside bomb, but this time, after seeing the military vehicle provided by the Alice Group to the military of the United States, all the reporters instantly settled down, and then they couldn't wait. I wish the United States would replace all the Humvee military vehicles with this car.

The car walked on the square in the middle of the barracks, because the right rear wheel was not flat enough, and it was bumpy and bumpy, like a giant beast that was injured in its right hind leg and did not dare to land on the ground, looking quite embarrassed and not fast. This is also normal, having suffered such a serious injury, the right rear wheel is no longer a standard circle, and it can't be fast if you want to.

It's true that the car has a central inflation and deflation function. However, with this level of damage, the central inflation and deflation function has completely lost its effect, but since the car can continue to drive, there is a great chance to escape from danger. War correspondent Thomas quickly calculated in his mind that the car had two spare tires, and with the special training of the military, it would not take long to replace a spare tire, if so...... Thomston was excited: with such a bulletproof military vehicle. As long as you are not directly hit by an RPG or anti-tank missile, or directly hit the top of your head by another missile, where else can you not go on the battlefield in the future?

If you are really hit by an RPG or anti-tank missile, or you are directly hit by a missile or shell on the top of your head. That's also their own bad luck, I can't blame anyone else's head, it's just a bulletproof car, and it's not a tank, even if it's a tank. In the face of this level of attack, nine times out of ten, you will lose your life, right?

The car drove around the center of the field, and finally returned to its original position slightly back to a stop, and the soldier who was temporarily acting as the driver rushed out of the car with an excited face. "It was great, except for the problem with the right rear wheel. No damage was received anywhere else, God. This is the car we need on the battlefield! ”

Not only were the reporters shocked, but even the soldiers of the Mi Army who were present were equally shocked, probably they didn't expect that this test would be such a result. …,

In the past, the soldiers of the United States who drove Humvees were attacked by roadside bombs, and almost every time they encountered roadside bombs, the result was the same, the car was destroyed, the car became a pile of scrap metal, and the people in the car became dumpling filling...... The dumpling filling is a pile of chopped meat, and this iron dumpling filling is also a pile of chopped meat, the only difference is that the dumpling-filled meat pieces in the Humvee military vehicle that have become scrap iron are relatively large.

Well, now you don't have to turn into dumpling filling.

Reporter Thomas was the first to react, rushing into the car like a gust of wind, he wanted to see what was going on inside the car after such a violent explosion.

Although the basis of the car can still be started, if the inside of the car's passenger compartment has already been blown up, then even if this new military vehicle can be used, the actual meaning is not great; But if the interior of the car is basically intact, then this is terrifying, which means that it will be a car that has gone against the sky to the extreme.

Prior to this, the price of this military vehicle provided by Alice Group to the military of the United States was as high as 600,000 US dollars, which made many people in the United States criticized, thinking that the quotation of the Alice Group was too expensive, you know, the military Hummer basic type that is now being used in the United States, that is, the Hummer M998, the military procurement price of the United States is 40,000 US dollars, which is much lower than the price of the civilian version of the Hummer H1 sold on the market. Even the M1114 reinforced armored military Humvee with modular armor developed in order to cope with the harsh battlefield environment in Iraq and Afghanistan is only 70,000 US dollars, and the purchase price of the military in the United States is only 70,000 US dollars, and a protective Humvee M1114 is only 70,000 US dollars, why should you Alice Group quote a price of 600,000 US dollars?

But if the military vehicle provided by Alice Group to the US military can really achieve the explosive power of 4 kilograms of TNT explosives, then taxpayers in the whole country will not say a "no"...... The Hummer M1114 is cheap, it costs $70,000, which is cheaper than the price of this military vehicle provided by Alice Group, which has not yet been officially numbered, but the performance cannot be compared with this military vehicle of Alice Group.

The purchase price of the F-16 "Falcon" fighter is only about 30 million US dollars, but why does the United States now want to purchase the F-22 "Raptor" stealth fighter with an outrageously high purchase price of as high as 350 million US dollars? Isn't it because the $350 million F-22 "Raptor" stealth fighter can better protect pilots and better complete tasks?

Similarly, if the military vehicle of the Alice Group can well meet the military's previous requirements for bidding products, then the Mi government and the Mi taxpayers are willing to pay for the high price of this car, even if the price of this car is nearly 9 times higher than that of Hummer M1114! As long as it's good value for money and the price is a little higher? That's what you deserve.

Quality and price match, this point, not only we know, the people of Mi actually know better.

The soldiers did not stop Toms, for these domestic journalists. They were still very polite.

As far as the eye can see, everything inside the car is very typical of military features, the plastic and wood materials commonly used in civilian cars are not visible at all, and the entire center console is made of cold metal. It prevents the problem of the speed of fire in the car after the car accidentally catches fire to the greatest extent, and is fixed on the car body with huge rivets.

In addition to the two seats of the driver and co-pilot, the back is a crew compartment like an armored car, and the two sides of the crew compartment are four folding seats embedded in the bulkhead, which can usually sit people. If necessary, the seat can be folded over the bulkhead, and the free up space can be diverted for other purposes. …,

In addition to this, there is a rear hatch for the occupants to get in and out of the rear of the car. There is also a folding seat on the rear hatch, and the four seats on the two walls of the crew compartment plus this seat on the rear tailgate can seat a total of 9 crew members, plus the driver and co-pilot in front, this armored car can transport up to 11 soldiers at a time.

But Toms looked at it. It is believed that even if it seats 11 crew members, there is still a lot of space on this car, and with a slight modification, it can accommodate at least 15 people, an infantry squad in the United States. The standard armament is 9 people, that is, a squad leader and two infantry groups. The extra two or even more pairs of seats are obviously taking into account the actual situation on the battlefield: the Mi army squad that went out on a mission. There must be at least one platoon, so that even if a car is damaged to the point that it is unusable, the soldiers of this squad can temporarily take the cars of other infantry squads to ensure their safety and timely evacuation from the battlefield.

On the contrary, a previous Humvee military vehicle could only carry four people, and an infantry squad needed three vehicles to transport it, which was obviously a great waste, not only to disperse the limited forces, but also to quickly organize effective offensive firepower when the enemy arrived.

Well, now the entire infantry squad is in the same vehicle, and whether it is attacking or retreating, it can give full play to its advantages.

In addition to this, Toms was found in the bulletproof glass window above the head at the rear of the crew compartment...... As you can see, the windows are fixed and cannot be raised or lowered, and the purpose is to provide lighting for the interior of the car during the day...... There is also a shot hole above each seat, including the rear tailgate, which also has a shot hole above the seats. Obviously, if necessary, the car can instantly transform into a powerful mobile firepower bunker, inflicting massive damage on nearby enemies.

At the same time, there is also a top cover that should be able to be pushed open at the top, which looks like it is used for modification, just like the current Humvee military vehicle, and the top can be equipped with the 12.7mm caliber M2HB heavy machine gun, and in the case of this bulletproof military vehicle of the Alice Group, the roof can even be equipped with rapid-fire cannons, anti-tank missiles and other heavy weapons.

Thomas gasped: Nima, this is clearly a light wheeled infantry fighting vehicle!

How much is a 4*4 wheeled infantry fighting vehicle? At least more than 1.5 million US dollars, in my own understanding, the ultra-light 4*4 wheeled infantry fighting vehicle not only can not carry more than 11 personnel at the same time, but the defensive performance may not be comparable to this car, but what about the military procurement price of this car? It's only $600,000.

Value! It's so worth it!

——————————————————————

The armored car provided by Alice Group was very popular with the soldiers of the United States...... In terms of external propaganda, the Alice Group has always advertised its car as an armored car with high defense capabilities...... In just one day, the application office for other troops to be equipped with this armored car was full of the heads of the commanders of the army stationed in Iraq and the army stationed in Ami, and the commanders, in addition to the coexistence of joy and pain, quickly reported the situation to the Pentagon, asking the Pentagon to immediately provide more armored vehicles produced by the Alice Group to the combat units in front, and even in order to allow the troops in their own theater to use this ramming car praised by the soldiers in Afghanistan one step ahead of the troops stationed in Iraq. In his report to the Pentagon, the commander of the military stationed in Afghanistan and Iraq invariably mentioned that after seeing the performance of this armored car, the soldiers threatened to refuse to fight if the Pentagon could not provide this car to ensure their safety.

Because of a piece of equipment caused the soldiers to almost "mutiny", this is not often seen in the history of the Mi army, but this time the situation is indeed a bit special, the Ami Army and the Ami Army have been bullied by roadside bombs and AK-47 rifle steel core bullets fired from the side of the road in recent years, every time the soldiers perform a mission, they always feel that they are walking a tightrope on the cliff, and they don't know if they can come back when they go out, and they didn't have it before, but now they have a piece of equipment that can greatly increase their chances of surviving a small life. Then you have to hurry up and urge the army to equip yourself?

When the news reached the United States, Zhang Lan, who was fishing at sea with Little Dupont, couldn't cry or laugh, if it weren't for the fact that these American soldiers stationed in Afghanistan and Iraq were bullied miserably, how could they take this way of "forcing the palace"?

Little DuPont looked envious, "Mr. Zhang Lan, I believe that this time your Alice Group has firmly established itself in the military light vehicle market in the United States...... Oh no, it should be the military mid-size car market that is. (To be continued......)
