Chapter 231: The Father of the Grenade Launcher
Can Tang Jixian not be confused, there is only so much he can know, not to mention that in his eyes, the revelor grenade launcher is already powerful enough, and the Songhu Peak Resistance Battle a few months ago has proved this, but Stuttenberg thinks further than this, because as early as a few years ago in 1945, he began to plan in this regard.

If you want to ask why, it's very simple, the principle of high / low pressure is the masterpiece of the Sixth Engineering Academy of the Third Reich, more precisely, the discovery of his Stottenberg, at that time Na~~! ~~ Germany was already in danger, and in order to save the defeat, Germany thought of many ways to prevent the Allies from attacking Germany proper.
V2 missiles, jet fighters, and even unprecedented missiles and precision-guided bombs, black technologies that previously existed only in science fiction, the Germans who were squeezed to the extreme by their potential have all turned from fantasy into reality and put into battle, and the same is true for grenade launchers.
In order to allow the German infantry to have a more powerful surface kill weapon than the MG-42 general-purpose machine gun, the Na~~! ~~ The Sixth Academy of Engineering of the Third Reich and the Third Reich were commissioned by the Third Reich to carry out exploratory research in this area, in order to rewrite the course of the war like the Maxim machine gun in World War I.
For this reason, the Sixth Academy of Engineering of the Third Reich devoted a large part of its strength to the development of this new project, and Stuttenberg became the leader of this project.
It is unimaginable how difficult it has to be, not to mention a period of war when resources are scarce, and even in peacetime when all conditions are extremely complete, it will take years to find a basic direction, which is why this new type of surface kill weapon has been in trouble from the beginning.
However, the reason why the Sixth Project of the Third Reich was able to become a world leader was precisely because he was a place where he continued to create miracles, and the same was true for the research and development of new equipment.
It was an unintended result of a combustion test on a corrosive propellant, and at the end of the war, Germany was desperately short of resources, and the same was true for the experimental equipment, which had to be tested with anticorrosive materials.
However, the relevant materials could not be found at all, so the engineer in charge of the project found a relatively corrosion-resistant metal as a sealed container, and for the sake of insurance, a layer of metal cover was covered outside, and the result was a little fire, and the entire combustion pressure value did not meet the requirements at all.
Needless to say, this was a failed experiment that could not fail again, and after finding out the cause, it was used as a sealed archive and completely became a dusty pile of old papers, but he did not expect this failed experiment to arouse Stuttberg's interest, because he was quick thinking, and found from this experiment:
When the inner layer of metal is dissolved by the corrosive propeller, after eroding out a few small holes, it will form two different pressures inside and outside when burning, and such a high \ low pressure will make the chamber pressure of the ammunition become very small, if the caliber of such ammunition is made large enough, and the propellant reaches a certain amount, it can easily fly out hundreds of meters away, not to mention, the power will be multiplied, and thanks to the superiority of low chamber pressure, the firing device can be made into a continuous firing like a machine gun.
Getting this conclusion, Stuttberg can be said to be excited, so using the principle of high \ low pressure, Stuttberg and others created a 45mm low-pressure grenade, and its supporting simple launch device, after the successful demonstration, immediately recognized by the German high-level.
Soon an automatic grenade launcher project with a caliber of 45mm began to be officially launched, but while Stuttberg was working overtime for this equipment, Na~~! ~~ However, the death knell was sounded by the Allies, and the 45mm automatic grenade launcher was stillborn before it could be completed.
Stuttberg hurriedly destroyed the relevant information, and hurriedly prepared to leave East Prussia, preparing to return to Munich to hide, or simply surrender to Britain, but he did not expect that as soon as the train left the station, it was intercepted by the Soviet tank, so Stuttenberg became a prisoner of the Soviet Union.
However, Stuttenberg also knew that the 45mm automatic grenade launcher would be obtained by the two superpowers of the United States and the Soviet Union, after all, the Sixth Engineering Academy of the Third Reich led by him was only responsible for the development of 45mm low-pressure grenades, and the launch system was handed over to several large military-industrial complexes in the country.
If it was a Soviet or an American who explained the principle of high and low pressure to him, Stuttenberg would not be so shocked, but things are so paradoxical, and it is the Chinese who are despised by him who say this, if it is all about this, it will be forgotten, with Stuttenberg's strong nerves, he can still bear it.
But he didn't expect that China not only came up with a grenade launcher, but also put it into actual combat, which made Stuttenberg not calm, you must know that this was a new weapon that he tried his best to make to change the course of the war, and the expectations placed on it were unimaginable.
It's like his own child, who has great expectations for being a father as soon as he was born, so he spent a lot of effort to cultivate, but found that this child did nothing in his own hands, but was taken by Lao Wang next door and was generous and colorful, and let Lao Wang become the child's "veritable" father from now on.
Today's grenade launcher is like this, it was originally discovered by Stottenberg, but it was taken first by the little-known China, under such a huge gap, Stottenberg has a feeling of being cuckolded by the old king next door, shocked, hesitant, helpless, sad, all turned into hundreds of thousands of ***, from the heart of the rapid skimming.
In disbelief, he couldn't help but shake his head desperately: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, how can China get such a cutting-edge field, it must be the Soviet Union, that's right...... Definitely the USSR, they came up with an automatic grenade launcher on the basis of Germany......"
Tang Jixian was a little unhappy when he heard this, although he was a little confused about the automatic grenade launcher, but he understood the basic truth, so his face sank, and he reminded him dissatisfiedly: "Alas, alas, how can I talk when I say you are a rookie?" How can the thoughts in the head be the same as those Yankees? Ah~~ We have good things in China, all of which were given by the fucking Soviet Union, can't we make them ourselves?
I will also tell you today that this revolver grenade launcher was not only developed by us Chinese ourselves, but also the relevant technology of the Soviet Union was obtained from us. You don't believe it? If you don't believe me, you can ask the commissioner, who was known by the Soviets as the father of grenade launchers...... Alas? Where are you going? ”
"I'm going to find the father of grenade launchers!" Before Tang Ji could finish speaking, he saw Stuttenberg leave the next sentence, so he hurriedly turned around and ran back......
