Chapter 1666: The Power of the War Department
The range of 70 kilometers and the maximum range of more than 95 kilometers require a long period of preparation, and it is not a simple matter for a few people to look at it and be able to measure it, and there must be professional personnel to carry out strict checks, but they can see the power of the 207 rocket artillery.

A weapon with equally outstanding shortcomings and advantages, because of the relationship between the 207 caliber, he cannot be as flexible as the 107, and in the exercise, the biggest advantage does not exist on the 207 at all, then his highlight is only power.
Next, with a load of one-tenth of the fuel, a simple experiment was done, on the launch pad, easily shot, flew out of a distance of about 5 kilometers, and just fell into the exercise area, 55 kg of combat parts, loaded with high explosives, equivalent to two or three times the standard t (n) t, a shell exploded, enough to cover a radius of 15 meters, for an unprotected target 27 meters away, there is enough lethality, such a power is amazing enough.
The officers didn't know any advanced theories, but simple calculations, it was still possible, and they quickly calculated the results from the damage radius, the comprehensive hit rate of 12 rounds was quite high, and the bullet points were relatively evenly distributed in the circular area, which was the best choice to cover the attack, and the lethality was enough for them to guarantee, especially for unprotected targets.
However, the power is amazing, but it always feels like it coincides with the 155, and the power of the 155 single shell is not as good as this, but on the battlefield, most of the time, what is needed is not a momentary extreme firepower, but a long-term, continuous attack, which is exactly what rocket artillery lacks.
Soon, everyone's interest shifted from 207, almost everyone never mentioned 207, the most talked about is 107, if 107 can be improved a little, so that the hit rate is a little higher, plus its previous advantages are retained, it must be a good small support firepower.
The person in charge has been staring at the scene, although he said, after completing the sale of 107, the intention to sign directly is quite good, as long as this reputation is played out in the capital military region, the probability of being on the list of conventional weapons will be very high, but compared to 107, 207 is the most invested energy, and even Yang Yuanzhao attaches great importance to 207, but these senior officers do not recognize, thinking of Yang Yuanzhao once mentioned that soldiers and researchers, their way of looking at problems is different, perhaps, There will be deviations in the middle, find this deviation, solve it, and only then can 207 be sold.
Some people were reluctant to tell the reason, but among the soldiers, many of them were straightforward, and besides, this was just a weapons exercise, and they didn't look down on this weapon, so it would be good to say the reason, and it would be better if it could be improved.
Almost no one thinks that rocket artillery can be improved, after all, the combat part of 55 kg is not small, and if it is increased, it will destroy the aerodynamic structure of the rocket artillery, which will outweigh the losses, and when the range of more than 75 kilometers is lost, even if the performance of the rocket artillery in other aspects is excellent, it is just a vassal.
Sure enough, when a large number of opinions came back, it was not enough power, and the person in charge was very disappointed, in the technical field, he had improved the power of rocket artillery as much as possible, but the rocket artillery was so big, and it had to take into account the aerodynamic shape, which restricted a lot of things, unless the range was not taken into account, but in this way, it lost the biggest highlight of the rocket artillery, but there was a bit of a dilemma, is it possible, the project they carried out is really a project with some chicken ribs?
Suddenly, the person in charge suddenly thought that Yang Yuanzhao mentioned the idea of adding stronger combat parts to rocket artillery, and it seems that it has begun to be studied, mainly similar to napalm, high-energy warheads, this kind of high-energy warheads, mainly not the power of explosion, but the killing caused by high heat and combustion, once used, the power is huge.
In order to allow 207 to have a good result, the person in charge thought about it for a while, or through the personnel, and simply revealed the next plan, they were going to equip the 207 rocket launcher with more lethal combat parts, mainly napalm and air bombs, in order to increase the power of the rocket artillery.
Originally, it was a dead horse as a live horse to heal, but I didn't expect that it produced a miraculous effect, if it really ensured the range, shooting accuracy, it could also increase the power of rocket artillery, which was in line with the needs, if the power was large enough, the weakness of the rocket artillery's continuous combat ability was not strong, it was really not a weakness, after all, all the targets were destroyed at one time, who would fight again, isn't it a waste?
However, some officers questioned that the current combat parts of rocket artillery should be China's latest explosives, and the power of this explosive is huge, otherwise, the power of rocket artillery will definitely be a grade smaller than now, and in this case, it can continue to improve, isn't this a lie?
The person in charge also knows that if they don't disclose a little at this time, they will definitely question it, and if they leak a little, the combat used in the future rocket artillery will not, it will be the same type as napalm, incendiary bombs or air bombs.
Napalm, these middle and high-level officers are no strangers, this is what China made when it was in the war with Russia, the entire city of Chita was destroyed by napalm in half, China can occupy Siberia so easily, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army has a huge relationship, and the problem of napalm also occupies an important factor.
Most of the napalm are more than 500 kilograms, after all, if it is small, the power can not be shown, only a larger amount, can show the power of napalm, which is also the standard configuration, and even in order to attack, has made a 4.5 ton of super giant napalm, which power is enough to attack the heavy defense line, the effect is extremely amazing.
55 kg, with high-intensity explosives, equivalent to about 2.5 times the standard explosives, if replaced with napalm, as long as it can be miniaturized to 55 kg, on the basis of high explosives, it can also increase the power by two or three times, in that case, the combat radius of rocket artillery can be more than 35 meters, and the damage effect performance in the core area will be more terrifying.
Don't underestimate the two or three times the increase, the two or three times the increase, immediately raise the 207 from a key attack weapon to the height of strategic coverage, and even strike at armored targets and targets with medium or higher protection, the nature of such a weapon will immediately change dramatically.
The person in charge briefly depicted it, which really opened the minds of the officers, and some people even raised the rocket to a strategic height, but there is a premise that the combat part must be strong, and the person in charge also promised again and again that he even mentioned that once the shape is finalized in the future, the maximum power of the combat part of the rocket will be more than 10 times that of the present.
The person in charge said this, although it is a bit exaggerated, but he is also right, although the research and development road of 207, there are some twists and turns, but the direction is right, the future will be placed in the 207 warhead, not the first generation of napalm, the weight requirements are slightly higher, even if it is reduced, it is not enough to fit into the rocket artillery, liquid state napalm and the first generation of air bombs, they have a first explosion to form an aerosol cloud of liquid fuel, not to reach a certain weight, At most, if you send flammable liquids such as oil dozens of kilometers away and cannot form an aerosol cloud, the effect of the explosion will not be good.
After napalm, the most familiar and mature combat part, could not be trained, the researcher immediately turned to another direction and advanced to the second-generation air bomb, and when there was no substantial breakthrough in the research, he determined this direction, and finally saved time, and before the second-generation air bomb was basically finalized, he first loaded it with rockets.
The technology of the second generation of air bombs is solid metal materials, using a variety of high-energy metals and additives, they burn violently and combine with oxygen, the main killing effect is temperature and heat radiation, for fixed places, tunnels, tunnels and other closed and semi-confined areas, a large amount of oxygen absorption causes a vacuum-like state, and kills the enemy by suffocation.
This bomb is a thermobaric bomb, compared to napalm, he is more convenient to maintain, and can be small, the largest can also be hundreds of kilograms or even tons, in addition to no radiation, it has almost reached the order of magnitude of nuclear weapons, known as the strongest weapon under nuclear weapons, and will also produce mushroom clouds produced by nuclear weapons, the smallest, can even be done on gun grenades, as long as the research reaches a certain level, it is enough to be loaded on the 207 rocket launcher, at least, The combat part of the 207 rocket artillery is up to 55 kg.
What China currently has is nothing more than the simplest napalm, whether it is a thermobaric bomb or the first generation of air bombs have not been made, although China's progress in materials science, so that all kinds of materials for making these bombs are ready-made, but in order to reach the level of air bombs and thermobaric bombs, it is necessary to continue research, after all, it is not a mixture of various materials together, it can be made, there must be a standard material ratio, and there is a way to fuse, these need to be in the next, Step by step, we can get the final product.
In the end, there was a little flaw, but the exercise was still successfully concluded, 207 has doubts, but if the problem of the combat part is solved, all the problems will no longer be a problem, in short, everyone is very satisfied, the person in charge not only signed a large number of intentions, but also got a lot of modification plans for 207, in the opinion of most of the officers, as long as the current power of 207 mm rocket artillery, can be doubled to the present, it will have a strategic role, can be large-scale strategic equipment.
