In fact, most of the military vehicles are also ordinary civilian transport vehicle models, and only a few special forces will be equipped with this professional off-road version, the reason is one word, poor.

After all, military off-road vehicles are expensive!

At this time, right next to the chassis of this off-road vehicle, a large group of people were gathered around, and everyone was very interested in this car.

Yu Shengli has to deal with all kinds of things, and he didn't come over, Lin Zhu has been staying here, saving someone from worrying about this batch of initial test vehicles, although Qin Zhenhua has promised them, but it is said that many people are still staring at it, after all, whoever drives away is who's who, and if he doesn't occupy it, he will definitely not be at ease.

Now, Lin Zhu is here, looking at this car, most of the initial test vehicles are ordinary transport models, and this off-road model is very rare.

Now, this car, if it is also simply used for transportation, it will be too wasteful, is there any other use?

Thinking like this, he also looked at the car, and when he looked at the back of the engine, he was stunned.

"The gearbox of this car is a little strange." Lin Zhu said: "This gearbox, there is an extra shaft? ”

Most of the car factories can make their own engines, but there are not many of them to manufacture their own gearboxes, in fact, there are only a few gearbox factories in the world, which are used to match various enterprises, and many heavy trucks use the same type of gearbox.

Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks, has always liked to cooperate with ZF, and they also use their gearbox, this nine-speed gearbox is ZF's, but it is different from ordinary gearboxes, that is, an additional output shaft is added on the side.

"Power take-off." Another person on the side said: "This is an accessory to the gearbox, which can add other components to the power take-off, such as the common hydraulic pump." ”

If a vehicle is to be transformed into a special vehicle, it must have an additional power source, and this power is generally taken from the gearbox, and an additional power take-off output shaft is installed on the gearbox, which can be connected with other equipment through this shaft.

The common one is the hydraulic pump, because the most important thing for a vehicle is the hydraulic operating mechanism, the dump truck needs a hydraulic cylinder, the crane needs a hydraulic outrigger, etc., all of which must have a hydraulic system.

This car, with this thing, is it going to be modified in some way?

Lin Zhu was a little strange.

After the grand ceremony, Lin Zhu stared at the car and saw the car drive into a special modification workshop.

Here, a group of people had already gathered, Mia, Qin Zhenhua and others, after the ceremony, they also came over.

"Zhenhua, how are we going to change this car?" Lin Zhu looked at everyone curiously and said.

"We're going to put a cannon on it." Qin Zhenhua said with a smile.

Cannon!

Now, they are surprised by the equipment that they can provide to their mechanized infantry brigades, with large turrets and 100-slide wheeled assault guns, as well as open-top and 120-mm mortars with curved fire, and these are obviously not enough, they do not yet have enough heavyweight suppression artillery.

Qin Zhenhua has had this idea for a long time, and this time, taking advantage of the truck chassis being built, he has such an idea to move the cannon to the chassis of this off-road truck and turn it into a truck gun!

This idea was also studied with Mia, and the two hit it off.

It was precisely because of this project that Mia agreed to the plan of handing over these vehicles to the army for testing and operation, otherwise, she would never agree, after all, it is quite inconvenient to put them in the army.

Mercedes-Benz Heavy Truck Factory is to build trucks, but it is definitely ambitious, if they can add a gun to their truck, Mercedes-Benz Heavy Truck Factory can enter the military industry in one fell swoop.

However, after all, no one has done this thing, there will be great difficulty inside, now, and a machine factory cooperation, in the Mercedes-Benz heavy truck chassis to add a gun, Mercedes-Benz heavy truck factory is unwanted, this project, everyone work together, get the technology, you can share.

For Qin Zhenhua, the first machine factory is familiar with the tracked chassis, although there is a wheeled chassis infantry fighting vehicle, it has never tried to install large-caliber artillery, so it also needs the technical strength of Mercedes-Benz, and everyone is completely taking what they need.

The cooperation between the two sides hit it off, then, the relevant test items can also make sense, Liu Jianli wants to use various excuses to pry this batch of cars, which is doomed to failure, because the height at which she stands is far from enough.

Qin Zhenhua saw Lin Zhu now and did not shy away from him, because after this cannon was developed, it was planned to be handed over to Lin Zhu's troops to operate.

"So, how many millimeter caliber guns are you going to install?" Lin Zhu asked.

"What do you think?" Qin Zhenhua asked with a smile.

"Preferably a 152 mm caliber gun." Lin Zhu said: "If this kind of artillery can be transported to the mountains, then we can achieve an overwhelming advantage. ”

A 152-mm gun, one bomb is a basketball court! If this kind of artillery appears in front of the enemy, it will definitely be enough for the enemy to drink a pot.

Although there are already self-propelled 152mm howitzers in the country, they are too bulky and bulky to drive in the mountains.

If there is such a cannon on this truck, it will be called a cool!

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he shook his head: "However, the recoil of the gun is too great, the chassis of this truck is unbearable, if you use all kinds of complex hydraulic outriggers, it will reduce its mobility, I think, it is good to have a 122 mm gun." ”

There are only a few kinds of domestic artillery calibers, if the 152 mm artillery is not good, it is 122 mm, in particular, the imitation of the Soviet Union's D30 type 122 mm howitzer that has just been successfully developed this year is one of the best, and the accuracy, stability and reliability are relatively good, so to speak, it is second to none in the world in the same kind of artillery. Now the army has placed a lot of orders to replace a large number of old Type 54 and 54-1 or 122mm howitzers.

So, it should be most likely to be loaded with this howitzer, right?

If you have a 122mm howitzer deployed on the front line, you can definitely teach the monkeys how to be monkeys!

"That's right, you're right, what we plan to install is a 122mm howitzer, however, the recoil of this artillery is not small, and the big problem we are facing now is how to do hydraulic support, so that it can complete the task of hitting and running, and it can't delay too much."

"It's hard." Mia on the side said.
