Chapter 1664: Barrelless Firing

Sometimes, curiosity is the root of the demand, whether this exercise is a trick, or is it really like this, this seems to be a very simple project, attracting everyone's attention, before the exercise begins, there are many people talking about it, after the exercise begins, everyone cares about talking, and their eyes are intently looking at the next exercise.

The drill personnel walked towards the target, and sure enough, they came to this routine, so a few 107 rocket shells, some of them were placed in random positions, some of them were made of stones, some of them were made of wood, in short, they were placed in an oblique position, and the well-trained gunners, after simply aiming at a certain curve, used a simple ignition device composed of two or three batteries and some wires, and prepared to turn on the power supply.

Rocket artillery is different from ordinary artillery, the requirements for the excitation device are not too high, and there is no need to provide a huge initial velocity for the shell, about one-twentieth of the initial velocity of ordinary artillery, in this case, a little use of primer, give the rocket artillery shell an initial velocity, 30-50 meters per second, as long as the next, under the impetus of the side rotation force, the rocket thruster in the rocket is successfully operated, and the rocket artillery is pushed forward.

What is more time-saving and labor-saving than electric excitation, of course, the rocket is used for electric excitation, after the power is turned on, the power source ignites the primer, and then the rocket is driven by the explosion energy, the side spin flies out, and then the role of the rocket engine.

This point is a little more troublesome in the launch of a separate rocket shell, above the barrel, there is a wire connection, and finally converges on the bridge, on the bridge, there are some other fine-tuning methods, the direction can not be adjusted, can only be carried out through the heavy truck below, but above the height, it can be controlled by the lifting platform above the bridge to adjust the initial state of the flight.

Rocket artillery shells alone are not so exquisite, even if they are mature gunners, it is impossible to adjust the angle too much, as long as the stability of the rocket artillery is ensured, at a stable angle, as long as the state of excitation is good.

A series of actions are so simple, anyone can do it after watching it, but on the contrary, the rocket is really successful in exciting, looking at the rocket on the simple support, the sudden intraction, relative to the rocket tube, this ignition speed is a little slower, after all, this is not a closed environment, the power of the primer will be wasted, but with the help of the reaction force of the eruption earth, once the side spin flies up, it follows the direction of inertia forward.

As an inertial guided weapon, the support of the barrel is launched, the flight distance is not a little bit closer than the barrel, at least the range is reduced by more than 7 percent, and the aiming is completed through a simple bracket, and only a well-trained gunner can successfully operate, even so, it is enough, he represents a certain extent, the shell alone has attack power, in addition to the range, other power will not be weakened.

Artillery, without the barrel, the remaining shells, not even the power of grenades, perhaps concentrated in a certain amount, can be used as explosives, detonating a large number of shells on the battlefield, this power can only be described as unsatisfactory, not to mention compared with the same weight of explosives, one-third, or even one-fifth of the power is not as good, and even a large number of shells are not enough to be easily used on the battlefield, or ambush, or coincidence, in most cases, detonating these shells, just the effect of destruction, Before the position is occupied, the last heart, that's all,

In the eyes of these officers, every artillery is like this, even if it is a mortar, it is slightly better, when the mortar does not have artillery, the mortar shell can only be used as a projectile, a little stronger than the power of a grenade, or even a little larger caliber, and it cannot be thrown casually, it is not good to blow it up, the larger the caliber of the mortar, the more so, more than 80 mm mortar, basically can not be thrown as a grenade, after all, the human arm strength is limited, and the grenade can be thrown more than 50 meters, However, the weight of the grenade is about 700 grams, a 120 mm mortar shell, the weight is about 18 kilograms, and the killing radius is 15 meters.

Rocket artillery is different, his shells are heavier, most of them are loaded with liquid fuel, and the combat part is only a fraction of the overall weight, if there is no barrel, let alone throwing, there are problems with putting it there and moving it, but now, even if there is no barrel, it can be used alone, although it is not a professional gunner, ordinary people can only control the general direction, can not accurately hit, as long as it can be launched, it is enough, only there is a qualitative difference in it, which will bring great changes to the infantry firepower.

Rocket artillery has never been known for accuracy, it is known for its power and coverage, if the position is attacked, the artillery can not keep up, when the enemy's dense infantry rushes up, there is a rocket artillery, can be fired out simply, how much support for the infantry, under inertial guidance, even if it is not familiar, just for the object in front of him, it is enough to make him of great value, in some cases, can resist a disadvantaged attack, and greatly kill the enemy.

From a weapon that can only fight a tailwind battle and the effect is reflected in the encirclement and annihilation battle, it has become a defensive weapon, and in the face of the ultimate killer weapon of the superior enemy, the role of the 107 rocket artillery is immediately different. All the officers were quite interested, some of them were hands-on and bold, and they also tried it under the guidance of these experimenters.

Their requirements, of course, the person in charge and the host to meet as much as possible, these officers, all over the various systems of the army, can not be regarded as a clapper, but they can be suggested, as long as they recognize this weapon, then even if the top management does not approve, this weapon will be much easier to enter the army sequence.

In the end, 25 people with strong hands-on ability, and even those who have some artillery experience, made a demonstration, but it is a few wires, a few batteries, as long as the power is connected, after touching the rocket artillery, the rocket artillery can fly forward, do not consider the problem of miss, and do not consider the problem of accuracy, as long as it hits out, this point, a few gunners did a little demonstration, these people will get started.

It is not a professional personnel, of course, it is impossible to carry it out in the field, there are hundreds of officers present, and the lowest is also a middle-level officer at the level of a deputy regiment, the combat radius of rocket artillery is about 15 meters, and if a rocket really falls into a dense area, then it is not one or two who die. Fortunately, the test site was ready-made, and after simply making a bunker and doing a good job of protection, it was tried under the guidance of a skilled gunner.

Of course, these officers are aware of the danger of this kind of experiment, most of them have led soldiers, and they often encounter them in basic training, the Chinese army is huge, and every year it recruits millions of recruits, and among the huge recruits, some accidents are born every year, and even cause considerable casualties, most of them are misoperations and do not follow the regulations, and they do not want to become victims of accidents.

Besides, the hands-on operation, just to verify the ease of operation of this rocket artillery, and not to play as you like, a simple try, according to the instructor's order, these personally hands-on officers are quite recognized by the rocket artillery, sure enough, the operation is simple, as long as a little training can be, and even for the gunner who has a certain training in mathematics and rocket artillery, in the range of 500-1000 meters, you can do where to fight, and the accuracy is quite not low.

This alone, it is enough to include the 107 rocket artillery as a necessary weapon below the battalion, or even in the sequence at the company level, the platoon level is a little too fierce, not very suitable, the company and the battalion are more suitable, not to mention any previous role, just holding the rocket can be launched, which will save a lot of effort, to the logistics at the battalion and company level, a few more boxes of rockets, this can not increase the supply needs of the battalion and company level, and the replenishment of shells and bullets is the same, but at a critical moment, such a shell, However, it can be used as temporary heavy firepower, which is very important for any low-level unit, and at certain times, it can even change the situation of the entire battlefield.

The display of the 107 rocket artillery, up to now, has come to an end, to a certain extent, so that the participants are very satisfied, some well-informed people, from the top to get the data of the last exercise, very clear about the advantages and disadvantages of the 107 rocket artillery, in fact, his advantages and disadvantages still exist, and even the advantages and disadvantages are equally prominent, in the exercise, through some local and unconventional use methods, but show the unique role of such a 107 artillery, so that the shortcomings of the 107 also become insignificant, As long as it is used properly, it will inevitably shine and give it the ability to gain a foothold in the army's conventional weapons.

Don't underestimate this, what are the conventional weapons of the army, firearms, including ordinary rifles, assault rifles, light machine guns and heavy machine guns, and even heavy guns of more than 100 mm, are only strategic weapons, not conventional weapons, you know, this conventional weapon, but in the army procurement volume of more than 1 million, almost accounting for a dozen of the total amount of the Chinese army, such weapons are the most widely distributed, as long as it enters this sequence, even a weapon can only earn a very meager amount, It can also make the producers of patents and weapons earn a lot of money.

Feng Yuxiang did not come, the highest rank who came was only a major general, but these officers are all over the various systems of the War Department, as long as they are recognized by most of them, there will be no pressure for such an artillery to enter the army, and from this point of view, the exercise will achieve its goal.
