What's not suitable? In his previous life, Mhammad was a member of the Chinese army, and he was very clear about China's equipment, and naturally he was also familiar with infantry fighting vehicles.

The industry of China was taken over from the Soviet Union, the tank was developed from the Type 59, and the infantry fighting vehicle, for a long time, was blank, as a result, at the time of the Vietnam War, it showed the dilemma of not having infantry fighting vehicles, so the BMP infantry fighting vehicle was obtained from abroad, and after surveying and mapping, its own armored personnel carrier was developed.

However, the tracked type has high fuel consumption and poor comfort, so when the wheeled infantry fighting vehicle became popular, Huaxia also began the development of wheeled infantry fighting vehicles.

The early development of the WZ521 and 64 armored transport vehicles in China are the product of simple transformation on the truck chassis, the domestic equipment of the Dongfeng off-road truck, on the basis of the steel plate, it becomes a wheeled armored vehicle, in fact, it is just a bulletproof truck, and the performance does not meet the actual needs. And in the early 80s, the WZ523 armored car was developed, which was developed on the basis of the EQ-245 off-road truck, however, the chassis of this model, which is no different from the truck, still uses the unequal wheelbase layout of the original off-road truck, the rear two tires are very close, and the front steering axle is far away, so that in the actual off-road, the performance is low.

Although this armored vehicle is equipped with the Hong Kong garrison troops and equipped with armed police, it is only an excessive model and cannot meet the needs of combat troops at all, and after that, the WZ551 armored car was developed in China, and a large number of foreign technologies were adopted.

And now, in front of Mhammad, it is such a transitional product, when you see that the tires are not evenly distributed in wheelbase, and they are next to each other. After a certain distance in front, Mhammad knew that this off-road ability would definitely not meet the needs! And, when you look at that tire again, it's just an ordinary off-road tire. It is not a special wide bulletproof tire at all, and Mhammad knows even more that the off-road ability of this car is absolutely scum.

Such an infantry fighting vehicle can actually be finalized? Do designers eat? Mhammad was quite dissatisfied with this doctor who had returned from abroad.

Now, hearing the other party's question, Mhammad immediately said: "The wheelbase is the biggest problem, you look at foreign wheeled combat vehicles. They are all wheelbases such as the front and rear, so that there will be no risk of running aground in the middle, and our infantry fighting vehicles will get stuck in the middle once they go up a small dirt slope when they are off-road. ”

That's the simplest truth, Dr. Star. You don't even know about this, do you?

"We design this way, and there are benefits to this design." "This way we have minimal changes to the original chassis," says Dr. Star. It is possible to use the existing production line and produce in large quantities. Also, there is space in the middle, just enough to set up the doors. ”

"Our army, what we need is a combat vehicle with good performance!" When Mhammad heard Dr. Starr say this, he couldn't help but feel a little angry. The common production line with trucks is inherently unreliable, and the off-road performance of wheeled infantry fighting vehicles is much better than that of trucks.

If the tires are arranged at the same wheelbase, there will be no room for the side doors. Looking at this car door, Mhammad couldn't help but want to sneer, at home and abroad, what kind of infantry fighting vehicle opens the door on the side? Is it safest for infantry fighting vehicles to directly transport personnel to the front, and to open the door from the back, and to open the door from the side, and to get down and be shot directly by the opponent?

Seeing that Dr. Sta opened the car door and motioned for Mhammad to visit the interior, Mhammad walked in, looking at the layout inside, and was even more annoyed.

The engine, just behind the driver's buttocks, is arranged in the center, although it is not exposed, it can be seen from the bulge, so that it occupies part of the space in the rear passenger compartment, and the floor is relatively low, and small bulges can be seen.

It can be said that this is completely the chassis of an ordinary off-road truck, and then a shell is added to it, and a big tire is replaced, which cannot meet the actual needs at all!

No need to experiment, absolutely not!

"I remember, we allocated 500 million rupees, right?" Mhammad said.

For Pakistan's national defense, Mhammad is not stingy, although this modified infantry fighting vehicle is only a small project, Mhammad also allocated 500 million rupees, converted into US dollars, there are also 5 million US dollars.

With so much money, to develop such a thing? Mhammad's breath was cold.

"I'm sorry, Mr. President, but I think that this infantry fighting vehicle we have developed is the most suitable for us in Pakistan." Dr. Starr continued.

"Really?" "Then you tell me, what to do when the engine needs to be repaired? ”

The chassis of this car is the same as that of a truck, and the truck has to repair the engine, and as long as the cab is raised, it is exposed, but this is an armored car, and it is armored all around! Do you want to cut it with gas welding?

Dr. Starr scratched his head at Mhammad's question, and then he continued: "We can drive into the trench from below, and remove the engine from below. ”

"From below?" Mhammad is also drunk, this is the only one in the world, remove the engine from below!

"It's a complete joke." "We spent 500 million rupees to make such a joke! Dr. Star, is this your level? ”

"I'm sorry, I don't think there's anything wrong with that." Dr. Stahl said: "Our car is very stable and has a mature chassis..."

"That's enough." "Now, let me tell you what it should be like to be a basic infantry fighting vehicle," said Mhammad. ”

Mhammad pointed to the engine behind him and said, "The engine, it needs to be arranged on the right side." Mhammad pointed to the driver's right: "In this way, open a cover on the armor on it, and the entire engine can be replaced in a few minutes, and at the same time, only here, it is convenient for the engine to dissipate heat, and the arrangement you just made is to turn the entire armored car into an oven!" In addition, the three axles need to be evenly spaced so that they can have the strongest off-road ability. And, on this basis, there must be a deformation of 8*8 drive, for infantry fighting vehicles, 8*8 is the most suitable, and the space is just enough to take an infantry squad. The doors were to be opened at the rear, and the fighters came down from behind. The use of high-power engines drives the vehicle to have better maneuverability, and the tires should have a central deflation system, which is convenient to adjust the air pressure according to the road conditions at any time. The infantry squad at the back should also have a shooting hole and a hatch on the top to facilitate fighting in the tank, and at the same time, the weapon system on the top should be a serialized weapon station to facilitate the replacement of various weapons at any time. ”

After Mhammad finished these requests, Dr. Starr shook his head continuously: "No, this is absolutely impossible, using the technology we have now mastered, to develop the armored car you need, it is completely impossible, needless to say anything else, you let the engine here, then what to do with our transmission?" Mr. President, when it comes to vehicles, I am an expert, and my words have more to say. ”

Looking at the feel-good expert, Mhammad finally couldn't take it anymore. The person in front of him is a stubborn guy, if he is indeed capable, then Hammad can tolerate his stubbornness, but now it seems that this guy does not have a second ability except to boast about Haikou.

Is this guy, really an engineer at General Motors in the United States? Mhammad felt the need to investigate, when this guy came back, Mhammad was directly entrusted with the important task, and he didn't even screen it, and now it seems that it was too hasty at that time.

At the same time, this guy from the West seems to have exerted too much democracy and freedom, and now this guy has no respect for himself, and he is completely aloof.

"Well, since you are not capable of developing this infantry fighting vehicle, then now, I declare, you are no longer the engineer who developed this infantry fighting vehicle." As he spoke, Mhammad asked the person next to him, "Who is the deputy chief engineer?" ”

"It's me." Hashim, who followed behind, said, "We are responsible for assisting Dr. Star. ”

"And what do you think of this vehicle?" Mhammad asked.

Hashim glanced at Dr. Star, and then said: "In the process of development, we are not very satisfied with Dr. Star's development, he just made us make a shell according to the Western style of chariots, and almost everything else is copied, we don't even have design drawings, just welded directly in the factory." ”

Hammad's face changed suddenly, just now, he thought it was a problem of philosophy, but now it seems that it is completely Dr. Star's problem.

"Dr. Starr, what software was used in General Motors before you came?" Mhammad asked.

Now, advanced companies have long begun to use computers for design, and large companies like General Motors are no exception, even in Huaxia, the design of Flying Leopard is carried out using computers.

Dr. Starr's face sank into the air, and his body began to tremble a little.

"So, you're not a doctor or engineer at General Motors, are you?" Mhammad asked.

"I, I'm just an assembly worker on the production line." Dr. Starr knelt down sharply: "Mr. President, I have deceived you, but I also came back with love for my country, please give me a chance." ”

A worker on a production line! Relying on a bunch of fake documents, after coming back, he gained the trust of Pakistan and took on the task of developing the main infantry fighting vehicle of the Pakistan Army, but he did not have such ability at all, and now, hearing the words of this guy, Mhammad's face turned terribly dark.
