Chapter 326: YES! RPG!(2)
Yang Mingzhi has been concerned about the production of the arsenal for the past few days, and the whole month of January is about to pass, in addition to the commonly used grenades and a large number of bullet reloading work, Rygushkov's mind is basically used on those three weapons - recoilless guns, mountain guns and RPGs. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, because Homnich was completely blown up, the production task had to be adjusted as necessary.
Yang Mingzhi told Rigushkov with regret: "We should have gone and brought back a pile of scrap iron, but the city has been blown up, unless the winter passes, and we will send people to search for small pieces of iron on the battlefield." This means that the materials for metal smelting can no longer be replenished in large quantities, so that there are not many materials for making weapons.
In between, some works had to be cut as well.
The first thing that was suspended was the imitation 92 infantry artillery project planned by Yang Mingzhi, this kind of short-barreled mountain artillery, it hit far enough, but its own weight was large, and the target was also very large. If you put the effort into making it to make a recoilless cannon, it will save a lot of materials. In terms of actual combat value, the recoilless gun has already undergone the baptism of actual combat, even if the blacksmith village here cannot be called a serious arsenal, the weapons produced by it have achieved good results.
With a range of two kilometers, it is quite enough for one infantry support weapon. Besides, the recoilless cannon can also move on wheels, and if necessary, two fighters carry it and go.
Therefore, the production of infantry guns immediately stopped, and the workers reluctantly stopped their work. This production team turned to the creation of another weapon - RPGs.
What Yang Mingzhi has always been proud of is that he made more than 500 rocket-booster warheads in that small workshop in the Far East. He knew very well how the various sections of the weapon were made, and now the workers were reproducing it so perfectly that it would soon be off the production line.
On January 31, the last day of the month, the newly produced RPG will theoretically be able to begin field experiments.
Yang Mingzhi and other division personnel went to the arsenal with great interest to take a look, and Kabisky also wanted to witness this miraculous weapon. He was even more curious about the bombardment of occupied buildings by the bazooka weapons he had witnessed, and the fact that these weapons, which were said to have replaced the warhead with a particularly large grenade, were so powerful that they could blow up an armored vehicle with a single shot.
Of course, Yang Mingzhi is also very much looking forward to the new production, whether it can meet his psychological expectations?
Yang Mingzhi, Yevlov and Yelentina, the three of them hope that the strength of the troops will return to half a year ago, and with this RPG as a technical weapon, the combat effectiveness of the troops will be greatly improved.
So, Rygushkov has already completed his preparations.
Yesterday I worked overtime, and the workers hardly slept. The charge of the fifty warheads is all finished, and the one that is loaded here is ***, and each one is frantically added to 500 grams. The concept is almost as powerful as a hundred grenades exploding at the same time.
Yang Mingzhi was not very satisfied with this waste of explosives, but Rygushkov's words were almost like the Chinese proverbial "good steel is used on the blade". Since the RPG will become a kind of "infantry artillery" in the future, then its power must be great.
When Yang Mingzhi and the others arrived at the arsenal, Ryguskov directly led the people to the warehouse, pointed to the neatly arranged warheads and launchers on the ground, and said: "This is our first batch of achievements, rocket-boosted grenades and launchers are all here." ”
Yang Mingzhi was not ecstatic like the others, he calmly stepped forward and squatted down to check the weapons.
After all, in this era, Yang Mingzhi became the inventor of this weapon. He is very low-key, originally historical, this thing should have been invented by the Germans first, in the spirit of respect for the original history, there is no need to be complacent.
He knew that what Rigushkov had made was processed in strict accordance with his own drawings. However, Yang Mingzhi's work before crossing was a middle-level cadre in the arsenal, and his meticulous professional habits were naturally brought here.
When he came to the arsenal today, Yang Mingzhi's first task was to personally inspect them to check and accept the qualifications of these weapons.
He turned his head and said to the rejoicing crowd: "Comrades, we must ensure that excellent weapons are delivered to our soldiers. When Comrade Pugachev was the division commander, the weapons I produced completed experiments and also participated in real combat. Comrade Yevlov, it is possible that you and our old fighters will forget, but I will not forget. Even when I was producing, there were explosions. I don't want these things to happen again. ”
"So, you're going to have to check them one by one?" Yevlov asked.
"It's not necessary, I'm going to check a parameter for every aspect." Yang Mingzhi turned his head again and ordered Rigushkov to take out all the tools.
In this way, Yang Mingzhi hugged a warhead on the table, and when he was just checking, he was surprised to find that the rear end of the warhead rocket had actually undergone some changes.
His eyes were shining, and he glared at Rigushkov. "Comrade, come here. Why did I find the opening on the side of the rocket at the end of the rocket, what is the design? ”
"This is my auxiliary nozzle! Comrade Deputy Division Commander. Rygushkov immediately introduced his changes. According to the original design, rifling is engraved in the launcher so that the warhead rotates and throws the tail out, which may be too slow. It would be better to make four holes in the side as auxiliary nozzles and give it a lateral force, so that the rocket begins to rotate rapidly.
Yang Mingzhi was shocked, this design originally existed in history. The Bulgarians made their own changes when they copied the Soviet goods, and this small improvement was a big improvement, not to mention the increase in its effective range, and the accuracy of its long-range range was greatly improved.
It seems that such a change is only in the nozzle of the rocket, and the overall structure has not changed.
He also measured this warhead, the outer diameter of 70 mm is a mass-produced warhead, the overall shape is similar to Yang Mingzhi's "60 fire", that is, the 60 mm rocket launcher equipped by the new Chinese army in later generations, but it is larger and has more explosives.
Yang Mingzhi really checked this weapon seriously, and as an "acceptor", he simply dismantled all the warheads.
This cast-iron warhead has a lot of stuff inside, and the metal bump fuse that has been polished and polished is full of explosives!
He also noticed that the outer layer of some warheads was painted with some yellow paint, which turned out to be filled with picric acid. With the same internal space, replaced with picric acid, the explosion power can only be greater!
And the launcher is even more impressive, because the arsenal really made the trigger mechanism! The front section also has a foldable bipod, and the mechanical aiming mechanism has also made a ruler, Yang Mingzhi took a closer look, they did mark the ruler to 500 meters, whether the effective range can be so far, it has to experience actual combat.
Of course, this weapon is generally most effective when used within a hundred meters. However, Yang Mingzhi still hopes that it will make a great difference, and in line with the name of each RPG God Cult, he also added a pendant of the PU scope to this launcher, that is, Mosin Nagant's scope can be removed and pressed to use it.
The inspection went on for a full hour, and everyone else was getting impatient.
Yerentina finally anxiously asked: "Berekov, how is it?" Tell me, can we equip it? ”
"Oh? Are you all in a hurry? Yang Mingzhi asked seductively.
"Of course, don't talk about me, look at this gate, aren't there already a lot of onlookers? You have to admit that our soldiers are waiting for this weapon and equipment to resurrect the glory of our army. You say, can we do a target shooting experiment in the afternoon? ”
It seems that they are all in a hurry! Yang Mingzhi fought well, and said to Rygushkov, who was also anxious: "Comrade, I think this weapon has the qualifications for actual combat, and the rest, when we finish lunch, let's start the first experiment!" ”
"Ulla!" Rygushkov was the first to shout, followed by the workers who were holding their breath. Soon, cheers erupted.
Such weapons have been able to give the current 284th Division excellent anti-tank capabilities. (To be continued.) )
