"Hum, Tengteng." With the drive of the electric motor, the 8V331 diesel engine was started!

This was the first test run of the 1224 tank, and when it appeared at the test site, it was actually quiet.

In the test site, security has been strengthened, and even at the edge of the test site, there is a circle of army sentries sentry, so it is impossible for anyone to sneak in.

When the sound of the engine sounded, everyone's hearts were stirred.

For several years, domestic tanks have been worried about engines, and now, finally there is the first 1,000-horsepower engine, which is the first step in the long march.

When this engine is started, Zhang Xiangqian in front also has a kind of ambition and pride, this engine, even the sound is different from the previous one, there is no feeling of procrastination, every sound is quite crisp and pleasant!

"Let's go!"

Step on the accelerator and hang the gear, because of the use of a torque converter, the clutch pedal is canceled in the operating system, just plug it into the gear lever, and then step on the accelerator.

Then, stepping on the accelerator, the tank swished, and it got up.

It's completely different from what I felt before!

Zhang Xiangqian had never experienced this kind of feeling, even if he drove the opponent's Chivoltan in Britain last time, he did not have this feeling, after all, the weight of the opponent's tank at that time was more than 50 tons, and the mobility could never be said to be good.

Now, the 40-ton 1224 tank, driven by a 1,000-horsepower diesel engine, has increased its power to 25 horsepower per ton for the first time, which is quite refreshing, just like a person who is used to driving a tractor and driving a sedan for the first time.

2nd gear, 3rd gear, 4th gear... The speed of the tank, faster and faster, and, in the process of starting it, there is another situation that has never been done before.

This tank, in the process of acceleration, did not emit black smoke, or rather, very little!

Your own tank, no matter how it is operated, is almost always accompanied by puffs of black smoke in the process of starting, this is because the torque of the tank is not enough, so in the process of starting, the tank has been in a state of strain, and the engine is not completely burned.

And now, a thousand horsepower is enough to drive this tank, which runs back and forth on the ground effortlessly.

After turning around, Zhang Xiangqian drove the tank back, stopped, and immediately shouted: "In the future, all the test work of this tank will be handed over to me to do!" That's what it looks like a tank! ”

The power is on call, even if it is a skip-step shift, it is no problem, and it is easy to start, this is the real tank!

Zhang Xiangqian is very satisfied with this tank.

"As long as you can get busy, the tanks in the back are all yours." Qin Zhenhua said.

There are also automatic tanks, which are also waiting in the back.

Qin Zhenhua looked at Zhang Xiangqian's excited appearance with a smile on his face.

However, Zhang Baolin on the side had a meaningful expression on his face.

He envied and envied the maturity and reliability of this engine, although their engine could also reach a thousand horsepower, but it could never be installed on the tank, and it would fail after less than five minutes of operation, and the engine in front of him was originally quite mature, as a civilian engine, it has been used in Europe in large quantities.

With it, the tank is like a tiger with wings, and domestic tanks need advanced power too much.

However, it is not possible to buy it, it can only be self-developed, and the progress of domestic surveying and mapping to imitate this diesel engine is said to be quite unsmooth.

"Zhang Gong, what's wrong?" Qin Zhenhua asked Zhang Baolin, "Looking at your face, something is wrong." ”

Zhang Baolin shook his head: "It's nothing, by the way, recently the Engine Society of the Ordnance Society plans to hold a seminar on the development of domestic tank engines." The notice is estimated to be sent in the next few days, I came this time, mainly to see, your engine research and development progress, to determine the future focus of our coal province diesel engine plant, now, I finally have a decision. ”

Zhang Baolin came over, naturally not only for those few unsuccessful technicians, and the same as the meeting in previous years, this meeting, in the research and development of domestic engines, is a pivotal role.

In China, there is a great need for a thousand-horsepower engine, look at the tank in front of you, equipped with this kind of engine, that is, you are walking like flying, and you are suddenly twenty years younger.

This engine, the performance is quite good, it's just...

Thinking of this, he has infinite emotion.

Qin Zhenhua glanced at him strangely: "Zhang Gong, what do you decide?" ”

"Confidentiality." Zhang Baolin said that he rarely does such a move, and has always said one and two things, and today it seems that his mood seems to have great ups and downs.

Seeing such advanced power, it is estimated that he was very emotional, if there is such an engine in China, tank technology will advance by leaps and bounds.

It's a pity, the rice has to be eaten in one bite, the work has to be done little by little, and now, it is absolutely impossible to be in a hurry, and now the research and development of 150HB diesel engine is just a beginning, Qin Zhenhua's plan is to take ten years, or even more than ten years to do.

Abroad, with a deep industrial heritage, what about the motherland? I came from an agricultural country, and I didn't have any experience with self-developed engines before, so I can't be impatient.

As for this meeting, Qin Zhenhua originally didn't have too many ideas, anyway, his own plan has always been self-developed, and what the country values is the engine of surveying and mapping to imitate Germany.

Now the factory has begun to make a profit, so the investment is acceptable, as long as you are still in a machine factory, you must continue to invest in research and development funds until the research and development is successful!

……

"The gods fight, and the little ghosts suffer." In the tavern, in front of Pan Chengren, there was an old customer, and he said with a smile: "Old Pan, your business here has faded a lot recently." ”

"Yes, the gods fight." Pan Chengren had a helpless smile on his face: "I heard that the director of the Diesel Engine Factory in Coal Province came up angrily that day, and there was a fight in the factory?" Old Song, do you know? ”

Song Weize shook his head: "How is that possible, it's all based on false rumors, the director of the cattle factory came, suffered a loss, and then left in disgrace." ”

"Suffer?"

"Yes, I suffered a loss from a broken door, that Qin Zhenhua is really a good person!" Song Weize sighed.
