Chapter 114: Don't Believe

If Dr. Wright had such an expression, would he still believe that this Mr. Thomas had reacted a little too much, right?

This guy, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd? At this time, Qin Zhenhua was quite curious.

"Yes, at that time, our company participated, and also watched the performance of the 85 tank, but we have also heard of this 1,000-horsepower engine, a few years ago, when you went to Germany to investigate, did you import a batch of MB-8V331 TC 41 civilian diesel engines produced by MTU companies from Germany, the number at that time was about ten." "The power figures, and the power numbers for the engine that you introduced, are the same," Thomas said. ”

Hearing this, Qin Zhenhua immediately understood, this guy was suspicious.

The performance of its own 85 tank at that time shocked the audience and made the whole world pay attention to it, believing that the tank technology of the eastern powers has suddenly entered the world's advanced level.

In terms of armor protection, this can't be compared, no one is willing to tell the truth, there are exaggerated, there are modest, and the real chapter can be seen on the battlefield, and in terms of firepower, with a 125 mm cannon barrel, it can already show the ferocity of firepower, so the main thing left is mobility.

Mobility, precisely the shortcomings of the eastern powers, for a long time, the eastern powers have always been technologically backward, tanks for a long time only 59 tanks 12150L engine to constantly improve, so, to say that the eastern powers suddenly have a thousand horsepower diesel engine, they do not believe.

They prefer to believe that this engine is from Germany.

Over the years, the Eastern Power and the German MTU company have a close relationship, and the 396 diesel engine of the MTU company has been sold in the Eastern Big, and the Eastern Power has also introduced a full set of technology, as for whether they can produce it, it is not known.

However, at that time, they also introduced this 331 diesel engine, and this diesel engine, although it is said to be a civilian version, is a reduced power version of the diesel engine used on the German Leopard-2 tank, so it is normal for them to want to doubt.

Hearing this, Qin Zhenhua smiled: "If you want to see our engine, then speak directly, come, open our engine compartment cover and let them see." ”

At that time, I had a project of surveying and mapping imitation 331 diesel engine, and it was the main project of the engine institute at that time, but it was a pity, because the mountain on the process could not be climbed, and there was no imitation success in the end, the so-called improvement and improvement was even more exaggerated, besides, the high-speed engine, bringing high heat is a big problem, from the basic principle, Qin Zhenhua is not very optimistic about this project.

At this time, Qin Zhenhua knew that the outside world was prejudiced against the eastern powers, and they did not believe that the eastern powers could develop advanced tank engines by themselves, and only thought that the performance of the eastern powers at the international defense exhibition was a kind of cheating, and now, they even planned to come here to expose their own old secrets.

In fact, if you don't open the engine compartment cover, just consider the volume of the engine's power compartment, you can also see that it is obviously small, and you can't stuff such a big engine.

Qin Zhenhua generously asked people to open the hatch of the engine, revealing the engine inside: "The German engine is a V-shaped 90-degree angle, and our engine is a V-shaped 60-degree angle. ”

The hatch is open, and it can be recognized at a glance, which has nothing to do with the German 331 engine at all, but more like the Soviet engine inherited from the same vein.

Qin Zhenhua generously showed them: "Over the years, we have been sparing no effort to improve the power of the engine, this engine, from the initial 520 horsepower, increased to 580 horsepower, and later increased to 730 horsepower, in the last year or two, it has been able to run stably to 1,000 horsepower." Compared with the previous engine, we have made technological innovations in the supercharger, high-pressure oil pump and so on. ”

Advanced tank engine, so far there are few countries in the world can be manufactured, to stabilize the output of a thousand horsepower, it is not easy, looking at this engine, Dr. Wright there to show a sigh: "Your technology, really good, it seems, you are not going to take the road of gas turbines?" ”

In fact, even in the United States, there are many people who reject gas turbines, but Dr. Wright insisted on it, and finally got into gas turbines.

Here in the big eastern country, the power of the diesel engine has been increased to 1,000 horsepower, which is really impressive.

On the side, Thomas stared at the engine, looking back and forth, his eyes purring.

Originally, he thought that the engine on this tank was the MTU company, and at that time, he had a lot of reasons, for example, the United States also had a good engine, which could help them change their equipment, so that they could get the project of the 85 tank, earn more profits, and be able to get in touch with the various technologies of the 85 tank.

However, I didn't expect that it was really not a German engine, or someone's own engine, but he still didn't believe that the tank engine of the eastern power was already able to output a thousand horsepower stably.

His eyes rolled a few times, and finally, he made up his mind again: "According to technical data, the dead weight of this 85 tank is about the same as that of our Jaguar tank, but in terms of engine, the engine of the 85 tank is obviously more advanced, so I really want to see who will win if the two tanks are put together for an acceleration competition?" Well, I don't have to go outside, I just look at this space indoors. ”

This guy still doesn't believe it and wants to test himself! Qin Zhenhua thought to himself in his heart.

At the beginning, the other party thought that the engine of this tank was German, and did not believe that it could be produced, but now, the engine compartment cover was opened, so that the other party could see it, and the other party felt that their own power was false?

At the international defense exhibition, the German engine was used, and now what is shown to them is the engine of the Eastern powers, but this is a display, deliberately fooling the Americans?

I guess that's what the other party thinks, right?

"How? May I? Thomas said: "If you don't dare, then forget it, after all, if the performance of our Jaguar tank completely crushes the 85 tank, it will not sound good." ”
