The newly established research institute, it took 15 days to come up with a qualified finished product, this charge is a little lighter than the previous one, after adding thermite, the overall density decreases, but not much, about 5%, the added thermite does not account for the focus, about one-fifth, the combat part is almost 2.5 kg lighter, but the power, in addition to the high temperature of 1900 degrees, can melt steel, in the explosion energy and lethality, there is also a considerable improvement. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In addition to the improvement of the combat part of the rocket artillery, the improvement of the rocket is also in progress, because the ratio has been discussed before, under the considerable ratio, the reduction of the combat part of the rocket will cause the change of the entire mechanical level of the rocket, the rocket is constantly growing, and finally increased to exceed the speed of sound, when crossing the speed of sound, it will encounter the sound barrier, in this case, the aerodynamic force must be modified.

Fortunately, China has accumulated enough experience in the field of rockets, and has accumulated a series of aerodynamic shapes before breaking through the sound barrier. The weight of the rocket itself is slimmed down and reduced, the weight of the whole rocket is about 3% lighter than before, the aerodynamic force is more excellent, the range has not increased significantly in the power system, but has increased slightly, the limit will exceed 97 kilometers, more than the previous 2 kilometers, and the flight speed will be faster.

It has not risen to the triple digit of one hundred, 97 kilometers, which is enough for the army, but in terms of power, because of the temperature brought by thermite, the power of the explosion has increased by about 12%, not reaching the increase of 2-3 times the napalm, and the temperature of the explosion has increased significantly, the temperature of 1900 degrees is enough to smelt most of the steel on the battlefield, whether it is steel helmets, steel guns, or even steel in some armor parts, it can be melted, which has a destructive effect on equipment and personnel. But it's a significant improvement.

Although there is no complete data, but according to the assessment of some professionals, the lethality has been increased by at least 1 times, and the high temperature and thermal radiation bring about the improvement of the surface, different from the explosion and shrapnel, as long as it is not in the core part, there will be omissions, but thermal radiation, 1900 thermal radiation, in the core area gradually decreases outward, dozens of meters away, there is at least about 500 degrees of high temperature.

Human beings are homeothermic animals, 36 degrees of human body temperature, high or low will have problems, and the ignition point of the human body does not exceed 500 degrees, 500 degrees can already bring continuous damage to the unprotected human body, and even under the premise of not enough protective clothing with insufficient insulation heat, in the center and the center is very close, the lethality of personnel is quite amazing.

Even if it is a little farther away, the instantaneous temperature, and the splashing sparks, can still cause great damage to people and equipment, and after a simple attempt, the final result is satisfactory, and this is a phased achievement, which can already be put into use.

Yang Yuanzhao was the first to know, for this result, is quite gratifying, China's weapons industry, has from the initial imitation, improvement, to have its own unique method, the current combination of the laboratory and the army, has become a good method, the strength of the laboratory, with the help of funds and scientific research advantages, research and development of outstanding products, the combination of the two, produced a huge force.

A brief look at the data, although it has not yet reached the effect of thermobaric bombs, but the temperature and lethality of high-explosive bombs have increased significantly.

Yang Yuanzhao's appreciation, which made the personnel of the Rocket Artillery Research Institute happy, they immediately confirmed the research data, and began a small batch of production, when this kind of new rocket produced 1,500 pieces, the Rocket Artillery Research Institute reported to the Central Military Commission, put forward the intention of another exercise.

Feng Yuxiang didn't expect that so soon, he would get an application for another exercise, for this 207 rocket artillery project, he was also quite interested, because in the report, only the phased results were mentioned, not the final results, obviously, the progress of napalm into rocket artillery should not be large, rocket artillery shells should have a large improvement, otherwise, after he has passed the application of 107 and clearly warned 207, he still dares to conduct such an exercise, maybe this is confidence, I guess I could have gotten a different result this time.

Compared with the last exercise, this time attracted more personnel, Feng Yuxiang, Jiang Baili, and even Cai Yi, Zhang Xiaohuai, and Yan Xishan, who came back to do the year-end debriefing, also came, and the commanders of China's large military regions came 11, accounting for more than half of all 17 major military regions, the reason is very simple, the installation of 107 is carried out quite smoothly, this is easy to carry, but the use of extremely flexible weapons, has become the most popular weapon in the major military regions, use this weapon well, in the exercise, It can have a considerable effect.

In this way, it is not to raise the 107 rocket artillery to the level of quantitative change, the power of the 107 rocket artillery is not so great, the key is that the current Chinese Army is already quite professional, and the ratio of officers and non-commissioned officers is quite reasonable. Even the commanders of these military districts paid attention to the exercises in 207.

As long as it performs well in this exercise, there is hardly any problem with such a weapon being added to the sequence of the Chinese Army.

This point, the people in the rocket laboratory are also very clear, the first and second exercises, completely different results, let them understand that even if it is a good weapon, it must be shown well, this weapon is only strengthened in power, not changed the shortcomings, then the temperature must be strengthened, and there is also a point in the range.

Although the accuracy of the rocket is quite high, 75 kilometers, only 300 meters, no one dares to bet that it is impossible to take the test site 5 kilometers away and 10 kilometers away, 200 rocket launchers, they will be deployed 60 kilometers away, and the target position is 12 kilometers away from the observation post.

The position they are in, in the alpine bunker 12 kilometers away, a bunker 3 meters thick, even if the heavy artillery directly covers the attack, there is no problem, let alone 12 kilometers apart, even if the rocket error is large, it will not fall here, and if it falls here, it will not be too much.

Rockets, with the support of Yang Yuanzhao, directly avoided the problem of German V1V2 missiles at the first time, and directly used probability and rocket dynamics to solve the problem of accuracy, and the accuracy is still uncontrollable, to a certain extent, the German V1V2 is in a sense, it is the same as a large fireworks, loaded with more fuel, and can fly far, in terms of power and accuracy, it is not high, it is an attempt to appear a rocket.

However, on the Chinese side, the study of flight dynamics and aerodynamics has reached a considerable stage, and even the preliminary wind tunnel has been completed, China's large carrier aircraft and strategic bombers have undergone wind experiments, using real data to adjust the form, Yang Yuanzhao also drew the form of some aircraft in later generations, just a basic form, but can solve many problems.

The rocket is the same, the rocket speed is faster, the air resistance has a greater impact on the rocket, if there is not enough shape, to a certain extent, the loss of power will be very much, but the material science is excellent, the fuel used by the Chinese rocket, or also, but the combustion ratio, is higher than the V2 missile, V2 uses nothing but a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and potassium permanganate, is a mixture of hydrogen and alcohol, the combustion degree is enough, but the controllability is poor,

China's rocket laboratory directly crossed this stage, using liquid oxygen and kerosene, in flight, the flight attitude and controllability are quite reasonable, these are the changes obtained by the rocket after the previous two exercises, perhaps the accuracy of the improvement is not high, but the proportion of landing points in the core area has increased significantly.

These are just on paper, what is really to be shown is the combat part of the rocket, and the thermite additive can raise the temperature, which has a considerable destructive effect on the steel on the battlefield.

First of all, it is a test of armored strength, at least 2 square kilometers, according to the position, there are 300 tanks placed in different positions camouflage, this is a relatively large tank force, the thickest armor is the armor of the main battle tank, and the thinnest is also the armored vehicle, he can more intuitively simulate, the role of rocket artillery for these troops.

Because of the higher specifications this time, even Yang Yuanzhao also came to the scene, as the most powerful person in China, all the commanders of the large military regions were promoted during Yang Yuanzhao's tenure, and everyone was very enthusiastic about Yang Yuanzhao's arrival.

Simply said hello to someone I knew, and then waited for the start of the exercise, in the huge observation room, at least 1 meter thick tempered glass, equivalent to the protection capacity of ordinary steel plates, which is also the highest level of protection measures in the test site, basically comparable to ordinary fortresses, because to ensure the observation effect, the entire tempered glass is a 25-meter-long, 1.5-meter-high area, through this piece of tempered glass, you can easily see the flight attitude of the rocket artillery.

In the signal tower, the commander picked up the walkie-talkie and issued an order to the test troops, and the radio waves passed through a distance of several tens of kilometers and were released to the experimental troops, which are one of the test units of rocket artillery, and their strength in all aspects is quite good, and the rocket artillery is also in a good state, and even part of the aiming is done, after all, this exercise is not to test the field performance and aiming ability of rocket artillery, this is to evaluate the basic strength of rocket artillery.

The speed of the rocket artillery is not fast, the speed of 51 meters per second, and even after the launch, in a short time, the operator can still see the flight attitude of the rocket artillery, not like a shell, launched out, and it will go out a long way with a swish.

However, after the side spin lifts off, the rocket engine in the rocket artillery shell has been started, and the huge tail is spraying energy, pushing the rocket artillery to fly forward rapidly, because there is no control chip, the rocket artillery can only use the method of inertial guidance, and the rocket propulsion speed is uniform and increases step by step.

This is the most obvious difference between rocket artillery and artillery is that rocket artillery is a process that has been accelerating, and even in the second half, it will get faster and faster, but the shell is different, the speed of the disembowel is the fastest, and it will be slower and slower in the later stage, especially after increasing the range, the farther the range, the higher the kinetic energy of the friction loss in the air, which is also the fundamental reason why the shell can be dodged after flying out and finally hitting.

However, the rocket is different, the muzzle velocity is not high, in the process of flight, it will continue to accelerate, and the final speed will exceed Mach 2, or even reach the extent of Mach 2.5, such a speed, the target can only wait for the rocket to hit, and can not dodge, similar to hearing the scream of artillery, the method of dodging in advance does not exist at all, and the rocket hit will arrive faster than the sound.

Looking at the huge fire in the sky, Feng Yuxiang smiled lightly and said, "The movement is still a little bigger!" ”

This is the inherent shortcoming of rocket artillery, not concealed enough, this point, in the era of radar ranging and artillery aiming radar in later generations, is not a weakness, after all, as long as the shell is fired, it will appear on the radar image, so the size of the movement is irrelevant, anyway, after launching, it must be adjusted and transferred.

But in this era, basically rely on experience to determine the direction, the error is very large, sometimes, after more than a dozen rounds of artillery fire, may not be able to judge the position of heavy artillery, on the one hand, the artillery is relatively hidden, in the depths of the forest artillery fire is easy to be hidden, on the other hand, different artillery fire, different manufacturers, and even different calibers, the landing point will be different, the flight trajectory is not the same, relying on visual inspection alone, to find is really a big luck.

The person in charge blushed, he also knew that this was the fixed weakness of rocket artillery, and he had also thought about adjusting it, but even the missiles of later generations, tailitis was difficult to change, not to mention that the rockets in this primary state were forcibly modified, and in the end they could only start from the transfer ability.

107 is very simple, the single barrel is launched and carried by hand, in some cases, it can even be discarded, these have to be based on tactics, but 207 is not good, because 207 rocket artillery, the impact is greater, the barrel is much better than 107, and even when in use, try to avoid firing alone, not only the accurate head is difficult to control, but also easy to produce accidental injury, a little 207 rocket artillery can not fly enough distance to explode, the power is too great.

Fortunately, China's motor vehicles are the most advanced in the world, 12-18 tube rocket artillery, the total weight is about several tons, with the front four and eight heavy trucks, can be on the highway at a speed of 75 kilometers, of course, there is no track, can not be in the field for a long time, but the shooting distance of rocket artillery, as well as the failure of input, will be prepared in advance, on the battlefield, to make a relatively flat, with enough carrying capacity of the dirt road, which does not take too long.

The person in charge explained, Feng Yuxiang listened, and the commanders of other military regions also nodded again and again, the biggest advantage of rocket artillery is the rate of fire, the biggest disadvantage is that the movement when firing is too large, there is no continuous aggressiveness, but the combination of motor vehicles and rocket artillery to a certain extent solves the problem of rocket artillery, even if the 18-tube rocket artillery, within 20 seconds, it is enough to complete all the launches, start the car, 1 minute can accelerate to 50 kilometers per hour, 5 minutes can leave at least 3 kilometers or more, As for the artillery fire of the counterattack, from the discovery of the position of the rocket artillery, to the completion of the counterattack, and then to the shells, at least 3 minutes, the reaction is a little worse, the training is a little worse, at least more than 5 minutes, and the escape of 500 meters is basically out of the combat state, not to mention 5 kilometers, how much deviation must be to be able to hit the rapidly retreating convoy, and even sometimes, it has gone out of the maximum coverage range of the opponent's artillery.

Because the speed is very fast, the initial speed is not fast, but after more than half, at least more than Mach 1, the faster it flies, the average speed is more than 1800 kilometers, it only takes 2 minutes to fly over 60 kilometers, plus all the launches, it is only 3 minutes, when the command platform orders to start the exercise, the sound of swishing is endless, several army major generals nodded again and again, and the effect of rocket artillery is very good.

This is 50 rocket artillery vehicles launched together, a total of 900 rockets, will be 2 minutes later, fall to a piece of the target area, as far as you can see, before the rocket lands, it seems that there is not much deviation, basically fell into which area.

Everyone pointed their binoculars at that area, and sure enough, after a minute, the rockets fell, and less than 30 of them were out of the area, and the rest were concentrated in this area, and the combat parts of more than 50 kilograms per shot, plus the fire caused by the fuel that did not burn out, directly enveloped that area.

The first time they participated in the exercise, they were more to watch the excitement, they didn't expect the coverage attack of rocket artillery to be so fierce, as far as the visual inspection is concerned, almost the entire area is shrouded, but Feng Yuxiang and others have participated in an exercise, obviously focused on the power, obviously, the rocket artillery laboratory is painstaking, this time the coverage is very large, and even the fire and power have been significantly improved, but I don't know what the situation is at the training ground, 12 kilometers away, can only see a rough idea. (To be continued.) )
