Chapter 126: Watching the Test Cannon
There are also shell-piercing shells in China, which is the technology obtained from the T62 tank that year, the middle is a round cake, a rocket-like projectile body, thick in the middle, thin on both sides, domestic imitations, almost in this way, as for the result, the troops don't like it very much.
Even, the troops, already equipped with 100 slips, were really unbearable and demanded to change back to the original tank guns.
Now, the one processed by Qin Zhenhua should be a bullet stock, but this shape is too complicated, right?
As the turning tool progressed, the outline of the butt was gradually revealed, and its complex configuration was seen, which was thicker than five flatbreads, what kind of butt is this?
When it finally took shape, in the surprised eyes of everyone, there were a few people who knew the inside story, and they had already begun to frown, they had read the original accident report, this thing was unreliable.
However, just when they wanted to speak, Zhou Xuejun had already run over, with excitement on his face, and shouted loudly: "Leaders, I have contacted the troops, this is all true, at present, with ordinary steel core bullets, it has achieved a penetration depth of 250 mm!" ”
This is true, a machine factory is finally a capital to show off, a machine factory, not only a production unit, but also carefully studied, under the leadership of the factory leaders, a group of technical personnel excellence, continuous progress, and finally realized their own tank firepower by leaps and bounds!
Zhou Xuejun had already thought of this passage in his mind, as the deputy director in charge of technology, he must also have a bright face, now, Zhou Xuejun finished the report, looking at the smile on Minister Zhu's face, he knew that the leader must be very happy at this time.
However, when he turned his head and saw the workpiece machined on the CNC machine, he frowned again, this thing looks familiar, isn't it...
Thinking of this, his heart suddenly beat violently, and at the same time, sweat broke out on his back.
"Okay, it's really great, we're here at the right time today, since this armor-piercing bullet has been made, let's try it, let's see." Minister Zhu said.
"But, leaders, it's risky to test the gun." Zhou Xuejun said.
Before Zhou Xuejun's words fell, Zhu Lao on the side waved his hand: "Since you have already tried it in the army, what danger can there be?" Let's look at it from afar, no problem, let's go, I can't wait to witness the depth of 300 mm from our domestic shells! ”
What is processed is just a warhead, but those present are all insiders, who doesn't know? Just find a shell, disassemble the warhead, and replace it, it doesn't take much effort.
Of course, when loading the shells, everyone was still farther away, and now, everyone came out of the workshop with a smile and went in the direction of the shooting range.
The maintenance workshop is very close to the shooting range, because the tanks here are repaired, they have to be driven out for testing, so they are almost separated by a wall.
The preparations were carried out very quickly, after all, the tank repaired here, if it was a fire control system, there was already a link to test the gun, so the shooting range was prepared, and the difference now is that the target was replaced, and a steel plate with a thickness of 400 millimeters was placed on the target, and after a while, you could witness the miracle with your own eyes.
Everyone is excited, if there is really such a penetration, it is definitely a breakthrough for yourself!
"Brother Zhenhua, this tungsten alloy bullet core is really heavy enough!" Wang Erzhu and Qin Zhenhua had a tacit understanding, they had already loaded the bullet core and the cartridge butt, and then went out to the ammunition depot next to the shooting range to load the cartridge in person, carrying this bullet core, Wang Erzhu couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, tungsten has a larger specific gravity than steel, and it is the best material for making warheads, but it is more expensive." Qin Zhenhua said: "In the future, our achievements will be promoted, and it is estimated that it will still be based on steel-core armor-piercing bullets, and this tungsten alloy is estimated to be equipped with a small amount of ace tank fighters for ace divisions, and it must be regarded as a baby." ”
While chatting, I went to load the shells, but I saw Zhou Xuejun halfway, he came from the shooting range, and at this time, the expression on his face was very strange.
"Qin Zhenhua, this cannonball..."
"Director Zhou, I can be regarded as doing you a great favor again, don't mention other requirements, don't forget the matter of the four places." Qin Zhenhua immediately forked the topic.
Hearing this topic, Zhou Xuejun's face was even more embarrassed, he agreed to come down at the beginning, but at that time, it was also because things were in a hurry, in order to catch up with the schedule, there was no way, as for now, Zhou Xuejun naturally couldn't answer, so he changed the topic again: "I'll go to the R&D room to see, the leaders will definitely ask to see the M48 tank in the afternoon, the R&D room, really, actually dropped the chain at this time!" ”
After speaking, Zhou Xuejun left in a hurry, looking at his back, Qin Zhenhua's eyes revealed a strange light.
Director Zhou probably knew what he was going to do, but this was originally his plan, and he would never give up this opportunity.
Father, your achievements are finally about to be shown in front of the leadership!
The shooting range is all dirt, it was originally a grassland, but the tank ran back and forth, and the weeds quickly withered and died, but after a rain, the tank did not start for a few days, and it would become green again, and the vitality of the weeds would always be so tenacious.
The spring breeze blows and grows.
Now, when the tanks and targets were ready, and a simple stand was erected for the leaders from a safe distance, Qin Zhenhua came over with Wang Erzhu and a cannonball.
The cannonballs came over and put them in front of the stands to show the leaders.
"This warhead, it seems to be short, right?" Looking at the assembled warhead, and thinking about the warhead when it was processed, I thought that it would stick out of the shell far away, but now, surrounded by the saddle-shaped butt, the warhead is just a small lotus that shows its sharp corners.
"Most of the bullet cores are stuffed into the cartridges." Qin Zhenhua explained: "Moreover, it is not the most optimized now, and various optimizations can be carried out in the future, of course, sufficient financial support is needed." ”
"As long as you can shoot 300 millimeters today, how much money you want, we will approve it!" Minister Zhu said with a smile over there: "Moreover, not only will you be approved, but also you will be awarded a special award in the ministry!" This year, the title of model worker in the ministry is given to you! ”
Qin Zhenhua scratched his head: "I don't want anything else, just give me a commendation meeting in the factory, if the leaders can come, I will be more satisfied." ”
