Chapter 169: Setting the Tone
The ultimate reason is the problem of money.
Now we are discussing the issue of the fire control system of the third-generation tank, and if this project is to allocate funds, it will absolutely not succeed; after all, although the army has been disarmed, its volume is still very large, and it does not even have money to replace a new tank, and it is only necessary to build dozens of tanks at a time, let alone allocate special funds to study a special chip for a fire control computer.
This thing burns money, and who knows how much you have to invest in it to get results? It is said that it is better to buy than to build, because R&D is too expensive, and now, everyone is thinking about how to make money, who wants to only invest and not see the results of R&D?
However, if you join forces with other services, it is different.
The chips of the fire control computer are not only used in tank guns, but also in demand for guns on other combat vehicles, anti-aircraft guns to fight aircraft, and radars to have data processing capabilities.
and Wang Xiaoqiang, who sat down, couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart anymore, he felt his heart beating and puffing.
Although civilian integrated circuits have been abandoned, there is still hope for the military industry, if you can continue to develop chips, then Wang Xiaoqiang would rather stay in the military system forever, his biggest hobby in this life is to engage in chips.
However, if a machine factory wants to do it by itself, it is estimated that it is enough, because it is indeed too expensive to engage in chips.
However, these words, the other party who had already said it was speechless, the leader who was better than buying, finally stopped insisting at this time, and Huang Lao, who was sitting on it, sighed and said: "Yes, our army, it is impossible to hand over our lives to foreigners' parts, this is a black box, what is in it, we don't know, whether there is a problem, we will know during the war, if such a thing really happens during the war, then everyone we present should be shot." ”
As soon as this sentence came out, the atmosphere cooled down, and if you really committed an unforgivable crime, even if you shoot it, it is not enough to make up for such a loss.
When this sentence is said, it is almost considered to set the tone, Huang Lao is in a high position in the army, and he agrees with Qin Zhenhua's proposition, which is very weighty.
"In this case, there is no need for a machine factory to come forward, after all, it is interlaced like a mountain." Donald said: "We have a special electronics institute in the south, which used to be engaged in ground radar, and now we are engaged in airborne radar for the Air Force, and it is said that we are also engaged in military chips. ”
The Electronics Institute of the South! Wang Xiaoqiang immediately knew what Tang Lao was talking about, and he also gave the Air Force airborne radar, only that unit, it seems that he should go over and see the situation over there.
In this meeting of the fire control system, such an episode came in the middle, but it was a surprise that the research and development of fire control computer chips was made.
Wang Xiaoyu is also proud of her brother, she knows that her brother's resentment in recent months has now a new hope.
"So, I'll move on." Wang Xiaoyu cleared his throat and began to continue to introduce: "We have observed that modern warfare is often conducted at night, our army used to be good at night combat and close combat, but modern warfare must rely on the blessing of equipment, our night vision device, has been from infrared headlights, to low-light night vision device, but these are still not enough, Western countries have begun to use infrared imager, we think, this represents the direction of the future." ”
The low-light night vision device can only fight in the moonlight, and the distance is not far, while the infrared imager, which does not need moonlight, can see more clearly, and the distance is also very far, because the tank engine has been radiating heat, so in the eyes of the infrared imager, it is a live target.
However, this requires a dedicated R&D team and a continuous breakthrough in semiconductor technology.
"Also, there is a special commander's circumferential sight, which we all share with the commander and the commander of the gun, so that when the commander of the gun aims at the target, the commander loses the ability to observe the surrounding environment, which is very dangerous." Wang Xiaoyu said: "Although the special addition of this set of devices will make the cost of the fire control system soar, however, the benefits are many, when the gun commander aims, the commander can continue to observe the surrounding situation, the commander can even find a more threatening target, take the initiative to adjust the gun, beyond the gun commander to aim at the enemy to shoot, this hunting ability, is a huge advantage of the third generation tank fire control system." ”
This is also the ability that the lower trans sight does not have, the lower trans, where the turret turns, the gunner can see where, the field of vision follows the turret, and the advanced fire control system, is where the gunner sees, where the turret is pointed, afraid that he will follow the gunner, the commander adds a sight, as long as the aim is taken first, and then the turret will turn around and cooperate with the commander to fire.
In the Western world, this is called the famous hunting ability.
Adding a separate set of commander's circumferential sights will inevitably bring about an increase in cost, and these sights must also be stable, which is almost equivalent to an additional set, but the benefits are also obvious.
These technical indicators are all lofty, and what Wang Xiaoyu is talking about now must be installed on the third-generation tank, which will definitely make the fire control system of the third-generation tank reach the world's advanced level.
But are these technical goals so easy to achieve?
Wang Cheng pushed his glasses, and finally spoke again: "Comrade Wang Xiaoyu, we are very impressed by your plan, as a peer, we are clear about many of the technical difficulties, such as the infrared imaging aiming device, there is no company in China that can produce, you can't find a supporting manufacturer, now these indicators are so high, can it be achieved?" If it can't be realized, it will delay the progress of the third-generation tank, this responsibility..."
Saying these words, some are not confident, but, over the years, put forward some lofty goals, detached from their own foundation, and eventually failed examples, there are also many examples, the third generation of tanks is a national key project, is a key project of the army, if you can't get it, delay the overall progress of the tank, what should I do?
Now it's not about pouring cold water, it's about recognizing the reality, and we're just capable of it.
