Chapter 336 Design Problems of the M7O Main Battle Tank

A new tank, codenamed "M7O", is in the process of being tested. To read the latest chapters, please lock the biquge.info of Aishang Novels

The last prototype was very good, so plans for a new tank were put on the agenda.

Part of the design of the M series was continued, but internally, it has been completely changed to a new automatic fire control system, and the shooting accuracy has been greatly improved, and because of the different internal structure, the 6th Army simply gave this tank a new name "M7O" to distinguish it from the "M6O" series. After all, although the architecture is the same, the things inside are too bad.

Billy Barber, a researcher at the ARK Group, is currently measuring the number in front of the M7O series main battle tank, which has not yet been fully finalized.

In order to take care of the various automatic systems inside, the key protection points of the M7O series tanks are also very different from those of the current tanks. Because the new machine gun will be almost fully automatic, the machine gunner can completely operate in the SP; This is also very different from the previous semi-automatic remote-controlled machine gun system.

The first point is that it saves a lot of space, and for the tank, it can save some space. This makes a lot of sense for the interior space of a narrow tank.

In addition, because it is an automatic control system, the fire control system that needs to be installed in the department is very different from that of the M6O series.

Billy Barber was in communication with the Chrysler Corporation's personnel, all from Chrysler's Delaware defense plant.

"No, no, there is the most critical part of the mobile device, it is impossible to modify it, in that case, it will affect the rotational performance of the vehicle!"

Billy Barber was designed to make the tank easy to rotate, but it took a long time to solve this problem, but now the people at the Delaware defense factory actually say cancel it? Billy, of course, didn't do it.

Billy Barber is not a purebred white man, he is a mixed race, he has a quarter of yellow blood in his body, and he even has a Chinese name "Meng Ban", which sounds very good, but Chinese people always laugh when they hear it, and sometimes Billy Barber often feels strange about this. It seems that because he is a half-blood, Billy Barber is very talented—the perfect expression of heterosis—so at this time, he hates to be manipulated by others.

In the design of the fire control system and automation structure, it is the ARK group that is responsible for the completion, and more accurately, it should be Company I and Apple.

As for the exterior design, it was all designed by Chrysler Corporation's Delaware defense plant.

Chrysler Motor Company's Delaware Defense Plant is the factory that has opened a number of tanks adopted by the 6th Army such as the M6O and are in service, and it is also a well-known military enterprise in the United States.

In order to be able to make new tanks one day earlier, the 6th Army simply adopted this model.

Having the experienced Delaware defense plant work with ARK should be able to turn this product into a real finished product faster, as the Pentagon is thinking.

"If it were according to your design, our armor would have to be redesigned, and the prototype tank would hardly have any defense, and if it were to be used in real combat, it would not be desirable at all!"

Researchers at the Delaware Defense Plant still vetoed Billy's opinion.

"You just want to follow the M6O design, you just want to save time and money! But the Pentagon has already given you enough money! ”

Billy argued.

The other party paused at this time: "We ...... There is not that much time, and if we start the design again, we need to modify a lot of things, and then we need to demonstrate again, so it is likely that we will need more than half a year to be able to give the M7O a ......"

"That's your business! You should be doing things with money! ”

"No, it's extra work, if it weren't for your stupid design, the M7O would have been out of the factory by now!"

The two began to quarrel, and the other employees immediately separated the two when they saw that something was wrong...... God knows what would happen if we kept arguing with them - Billy still had a wrench in his hand and a hammer in his hand.

The prototype tank is only tested for shooting accuracy and dynamic control system, but if it is a real tank, there are many things to consider.

Because the "skeleton" structure of the new M7O is very strange, it is not possible to redesign the appearance according to this skeleton. And there has never been such a thing in the past. And Billy's anger also has some justification, because the other party is simply lazy to take the M6O with a slight modification, and then ask the ARK Group to modify the design.

The two sides were at a stalemate, and now, Billy finally couldn't take it anymore. If you follow the other party's request, then you have to re-modify all of your own aspects, and ARK has been preparing for this for more than a year, how can it be possible to overturn everything just because of one action of the other party?

And in that case, the ARK Group will also take a long time to design, and it will not be more time-saving than the design of the Delaware defense plant. And in that case, it will definitely not be able to achieve the performance of the current machine.

Although even if the tank is finally designed, it will be produced by the Delaware defense factory, but the other side obviously wants a greater benefit - the characteristic of capital is profit-seeking, not pure high-tech, and the reason why they are high-tech is because high-tech can bring them enough profits.

On the premise of being able to make higher profits, they don't care about the performance of American tanks - they just need to fool the Pentagon enough, slap it all the time, and get it done.

On the other hand, the ARK Group is different.

The rise of the ARK Group has relied on the vast majority of young technicians with ideals and ambitions, whose philosophy is very different from that of the employees of established companies such as Chrysler Motors. They have just left the ivory tower of the university and have not yet been smoothed out by society, although there are still a considerable number of experienced technicians, but young people account for the majority after all.

The conflict of ideas inevitably leads to the birth of contradictions, which is only a microcosm......

……

"Got into a conflict with Chrysler?!"

Catherine was startled to hear Sanders' report. Originally, when he bought "The Godfather" and was about to adapt it into a screenplay, Sanders suddenly came over and said such news, which was indeed a bit unexpected.

"Yes, it almost turned into a physical altercation, but luckily it was stopped."

"That's good......"

"Chrysler Motor Company, ah......"

Catherine propped her chin with her pen.

Chrysler Motors is the third largest automobile manufacturer in the United States. The company is headquartered in Highland Park, Michigan.

In 1925, Walter Chrysler broke away from General Motors and created Chrysler Motor Company on its own. In the same year, the company bought Maxwell Motor Company. In 1928, he bought the Dodge Brothers Automobile Company. In 19361949, the company became the second largest automobile company in the United States, but in the early 5o6o, production was in a period of decline, and in the mid-6o, the company was reorganized to stabilize its position.

For now, Chrysler is in a steady development phase. However, Catherine did not know that if the historical trajectory remained unchanged, Chrysler would face a major crisis in the 70s, with a rigid system, product quality problems, and poor sales...... Chrysler almost went bankrupt as a result.

"What the hell is going on?"

Although ARK is a leader in the electronics industry, in front of traditional military enterprises, she feels that she should be more cautious. After all, the other party is an old Pentagon supplier, and its market value is higher than that of the entire ARK Group combined, so it is impossible to seize its edge at this time.

"Because the design of the Delaware defense plant conflicted with ours...... They asked us to make changes to the design. ”

It sounds ridiculous: "Isn't that their job?" ”

Catherine looked at Sanders with puzzled eyes, and Sanders looked at Catherine with "you know" eyes.

The answer is already clear.

Catherine pouted: "Iron Gongji! Death costs money! ”

The two sentences of complaining made Sanders's expression very embarrassed - but Catherine summed it up quite appropriately......

"What now?" Catherine was thinking.

"I heard that Mr. Walker has already gone over to negotiate, so probably nothing will happen, right?"

Director of the Office of Quality Supervision and Management, Walker.

Catherine had already dealt with this man several times. In Catherine's opinion, there is one word that can describe this person well, and that is "angry youth".

Although he is forty or fifty years old, Walker is still an "indignant", whether it is when he is doing things, he is the tone of his speech, which can reflect this characteristic.

If it's such a person, then I guess I won't be bothering with Ark, right?

Sure enough, within two days, the Delaware defense factory was conceded, but the ARK Group also made certain compromises.

In the end, the two sides decided to work together to build a new tank, and the two sides had to sit together openly and discuss.

Catherine has no opinion on this, after all, without the cooperation of the ARK Group, the final "assembly Tucker" will definitely not be as good as the quality of the cooperation.

The plan was finally decided, but Catherine couldn't sit idle, and 8 years was also a busy year for Catherine......
