This is indeed a big satellite, before that, no one thought that the eastern powers themselves would be able to develop a tank engine with 1,200 horsepower!

Engine, belongs to the laurel of the machinery manufacturing industry, there are not many countries in the world that can develop their own engines, and there are not many countries that can develop their own advanced tank engines, even the old industrial power Britain, in the tank engine, is also stopped at 1,200 horsepower, to their more than 60 tons of Challenger tanks use a 1,000 horsepower diesel engine, that is also helpless, because larger diesel engines, they can't build.

What about the French? The French took a different path and combined aircraft engines and tank engines, which sounded lofty, and said that it was the direction of future development, but it was just a compromise that had to be made because of the lack of research and development capabilities.

The Germans did it, but by increasing the rpm, which was quite a test of industrial ability, and also led to a consequence of a large increase in engine heat.

As for the USSR and the Americans, they began to follow the path of aero engines.

Only the big countries in the East, step by step, down-to-earth, starting with the B2 series engines of the Soviets, increased from more than 500 horsepower, to more than 700 horsepower, then from more than 700 horsepower, to 1,000 horsepower, and now, finally increased to 1,200 horsepower, this is definitely a big satellite.

Of course, this is just a sign in the development process of the tank engine, just able to ignite, whether it can achieve the predetermined power is not easy to say, whether it can run stably is not easy to say, whether it will break down in operation is not easy to say, everything, need to continue the long test, but, at this moment, enough to make people tears.

Zhu Lao's eyes moistened.

Everyone knows that the stronger the tank protection, the greater the tonnage, but after the tonnage is large, it has to be driven by a more powerful engine, and if there is no enough power engine, then there is no way to make the tank more powerful.

Now, at last, there is an engine of 1,200 horsepower, and although there may be various problems waiting to be solved in the later stage, at least for now, they have done it!

Wu Ruihua had already begun to rub his eyes with his hands, he thought of the past, the diesel engine branch of a machine factory, the production was chaotic, the people's hearts were sluggish, and the products produced were defective, so that the army refused to accept them, and a group of old fritters who thought they were holding iron rice bowls were messing around in the factory.

Later, it was Qin Zhenhua and Zhao Guodong, they came to the diesel engine branch, and in a short time, the situation was reversed, so that the diesel engine branch was on the right track, the product quality reached the standard, and new products were developed!

Today, it is a diesel engine branch of a machine factory, which has a good reputation!

The engine is running steadily, because it has just started, because it is the first time to start, so, there is no continued increase in the throttle to let it run at full power, it first needs to run in at low speed, although in the time of production, it has been precisely run-in, but now, it is still necessary to take this step, listening to the sonorous sound of the engine, everyone is feeling excited, as if it is a booster.

"Okay, finally there." Zhu Lao said: "Zhenhua, starting this year, I will probably be resident in a machine factory, and we need a machine factory to officially start trial production of our third-generation tanks!" ”

Zhu Lao said solemnly, Qin Zhenhua nodded vigorously: "No problem, leave it to us, we will definitely be able to complete the task smoothly." ”

"Well, the first problem you have to solve is welding, our third-generation tanks will use the latest development of armor steel, this armor steel, is not easy to weld, you have to organize technical forces to tackle key problems." Zhu Lao said.

The third-generation tank is definitely not as simple as the second-generation tank modification, and a large number of new technologies have been applied to it, including a simple hull, which is made of the latest research and development of armor steel, and welding is a difficult point.

The supporting grassland iron and steel plant, only in charge of steelmaking, steel up to the standard can be, Zhu Lao led the tank design institute, only in charge of design, this production, can only be left in a machine factory to solve.

Qin Zhenhua nodded: "Of course this is no problem, we have the best welders, don't look at Master Lu lost his left hand, but the welding technology is more advanced than before." ”

For the development of the factory, I don't know how many people have contributed everything they have, including Lu Feng, a few years ago, because of the spy incident, Master Lu lost his left hand, but he was not discouraged at all, and did not live a retirement life with disability protection, but continued to contribute his own strength, in the car body welding workshop of a machine factory, he was already the number one.

Leave it to him to do it, Qin Zhenhua is relieved.

A machine factory, the main business is to build tanks, although for various reasons, there are other involvement, but making tanks is still the main business, will not relax because of this, to make the most advanced and powerful tanks for the country, is what Qin Zhenhua wants to do the most!

The roar of the engine still echoed in his ears, and in the roar of the engine, Qin Zhenhua and Zhu Lao had already started a discussion on the production of prototypes of the third-generation tank.

"After coordination, we have begun to introduce German LSG3000 transmission system, but now we can only introduce samples, if we want to put into production in large quantities, we have to introduce the corresponding technology of the township, these, I am afraid you have to bother more." Zhu Lao said.

The design drawings of the tank have come out, and the next step is production, in the design drawings, the LSG3000 transmission system of the German ZF company is used, after all, it is also the royal scheme of the tank engine with more than 1,000 horsepower.

Since it was originally engaged in foreign trade, there is no problem with the introduction of samples, but if you want to introduce technology and produce it yourself, the problem is still not small.

Just like the original negotiations with Mercedes-Benz, what people hope most is that they can introduce products, so that they can make more money, but not in China, China does not want to be stuck in this area, to introduce technology, this contradiction can not be solved, it can not continue.

Hearing this, Qin Zhenhua scratched his head: "You really think highly of me." Although I have a good relationship with Mia, Mia is not omnipotent, and when it comes to principles, she also has a bottom line. ”

Qin Zhenhua wants to open the mouth, that is Mia, Mia, a German woman, is almost resident in the eastern country, and has become Wang Xiaoqiang's daughter-in-law and Qin Zhenhua's sister-in-law, but if you want to find her to help, you have to think of a safe plan.
