Chapter 496: Individual Equipment

Small arms, which must be a series, including squad machine guns, assault rifles, sniper rifles, to achieve the role of equipping the entire front-line infantry.

Mhammad attaches great importance to these weapons, and it may be more appropriate to decide that on the basis of these weapons, he should not be hastily decided.

However, this is only a soldier weapon system, and the equipment of individual soldiers, including quite a few types.

Like, the simplest clothes!

Soldiers wear ceremonial uniforms when they are inspected, and camouflage uniforms when they are fighting and training.

Ordinary camouflage uniforms are just a variety of irregular camouflage blocks on the clothes, and now, the camouflage uniforms developed by Pakistan, although they also look like various camouflage blocks, but these patterns are carefully designed. This is similar to the digital camouflage of later generations, and it is a new type of camouflage uniform composed of "pixels".

The smooth edges of traditional camouflage, while the scattered and disorderly digital camouflage, already have some similar meaning to the meaning of the gilly suit, which can adapt to the hidden needs of various environmental backgrounds, such as jungles, deserts and urban areas, and anti-disturbance night vision devices. Moreover, it also has camouflage performance under infrared detection and night vision goggles.

After watching the various light weapons, Mhammad saw this camouflage uniform in the research workshop in the back.

"We have processed dozens of patterns, and after comparison, the current patterns are the most perfect, which is very suitable for our tropical monsoon climate and a small amount of subtropical, plateau and desert climate." The person in charge said to Mhammad.

Muhammad nodded, this camouflage uniform has met the requirements, and it can be put into the army equipment, and through the trial of the army, more feedback will be given. and then improve it.

"Report to the President, here is our physical suit." The person in charge continued, "These clothes are made of quick-drying fabric, which can dry quickly after absorbing sweat. ”

Mhammad looked at the physical suits, with digital camouflage on the upper body and grass green shorts on the bottom, which was also so that the soldiers could fight directly in the vests. without worrying about concealment. For this kind of physical clothing, it is worn closely, the most important thing is the choice of fabric, in later generations, the physical clothing of the Chinese army, the use of chemical fiber clothes, soldiers sweat a lot after exercise, the clothes are wet and sticky to the body after sweat is very uncomfortable, and in battle. This definitely affects the mood of the battle.

Next to the physical suit, there are combat boots, which are divided into three categories. Standard boots, that is, infantry boots. These boots have a hard bottom nylon high waist, with a quick zipper on the side, which is breathable, and a nylon high-waisted cloth is waterproof. The price is relatively inexpensive and suitable for a large amount of gear.

Sapper boots. It's infantry boots with steel soles and steel toes, because they have to guard against being hit on the toes by boxes and the like at work, and this kind of boots, if kicked, can kick the opponent's leg bones hard.

Pilot boots, are boots worn by pilots. In fact, it is a leather infantry boot, once the plane catches fire, the nylon will melt and stick to the skin, and the consequences are very serious.

Of course, there are other special equipment, such as special teams, paratroopers, and mountain troops, which may require some special combat boots such as special combat boots, paratrooper boots, and mountain boots. These are based on standard boots.

On the top of the boots, there are gloves, which are divided into two types, a pair of close-fitting leather gloves for shooting, the index finger part is a half-finger structure, which is convenient for soldiers to pull the trigger, and a pair of wear-resistant and flame-retardant gloves for rope dropping.

"President, these pieces of equipment of ours are simply for the special forces." Musha'f, who was visiting from the sidelines, said.

The army's equipment is mainly a large number, and these things, if they are rationed to special forces, and all individual soldiers are distributed, the cost is quite high.

"First of all, it will be equipped with special forces, but later, it will gradually be equipped with the whole army." "A good piece of equipment can save a soldier's life on the battlefield, and no amount of investment is worth it," Mahmad said. It's not just the clothes, it's the stuff. ”

Mhammad's finger passed, and following the direction of Mhammad's hand, Musha'f could see a dummy, and at this time, the body of the dummy, in addition to the clothes and boots that he had just seen, was wearing various equipment.

Combat vests, bulletproof inserts, helmets, radios, goggles, backpacks, in this era it really looks like a futuristic warrior.

When going to the battlefield, soldiers need to wear combat vests on the outside of digital camouflage uniforms, which can be stuffed into bulletproof inserts.

Musha'f didn't know much about the bulletproof inserts, but one of the guards who followed him was thrilled to see the bulletproof inserts, who had fought with Mhamad in Afghanistan and had seen the power of the bulletproof inserts.

At the beginning, Mhammad picked up the bulletproof armor on the Soviets' hind helicopter and transformed it into bulletproof inserts, which were placed in front and back of him, and these bulletproof inserts saved Mhammad's life.

It's just that the bulletproof insert plate at that time used real titanium alloy, and this thing was expensive to build, and it couldn't be carried by individual soldiers at all.

Therefore, after Mhammad became the president of Pakistan, he began to pay attention to individual devices, which naturally included bulletproof inserts.

Now bulletproof inserts have not yet become popular, but in later generations, Americans fought wars around the world, and no matter where they went, this thing was the standard for individual soldiers.

The main device of the bulletproof insert plate is the plate, which can be a steel plate, alloy, ceramic, plastic, etc., and in general, it is the most ceramic plate, and there are even rumors that two tiles, glued together in the middle, can become a bulletproof plate, and the rumor buster has also done an experiment, and as a result, the pistol bullet can really block, but the rifle bullet ... When the tiles behind are shattered, the flying shards are enough to kill a person.

Now, Mhammad reached in and took out the bulletproof insert plate from the inside, which is a kind of black ceramic plate, which is a special development, the source is the technology of Huaxia, the composite armor in the tank armor is made of similar materials, and after many tests, the final trial production of a bulletproof insert plate.

On both sides of this panel, there are Kevlar materials.

Kevlar material is an aramid fiber composite material developed by DuPont in the United States in the 60s, called aramid 1414, and in 72 years, it was officially commercialized and the product was registered as Kevlar. Models are divided into K29, K49, K49AP, etc.

This new material has low density, high strength, good toughness, high temperature resistance, easy processing and forming, and is five times stronger than the same quality steel, but only one-fifth the density of steel. When this material was invented, it was first used in the military.

However, the current Kevlar material, is far from reaching the degree of application in later generations, one of the important reasons, is technology and capital, now, this material is still monopolized by the United States, Pakistan with good relations with the United States, but also the introduction of this aramid fiber, used on both sides of the bulletproof insert, to hold possible fragments.

As for Kevlar for helmets, Pakistan has no way to introduce them, after all, it took the Americans six years to use this material to make helmets after inventing Kevlar materials, which reached the second-level protection standard.

"What level can this bulletproof insert plate reach?" Mhammad asked.

This thing is modern armor, which is related to the life safety of soldiers, Pakistan has been in conflict with India all the year round, and this kind of equipment must not be sloppy.

"It can resist 7.62mm rifle bullets, but it can't block steel-core armor-piercing bullets, and the disadvantage is that it is a bit heavy." The person in charge said.

Compared with the titanium bulletproof insert made by Mhammad on the battlefield back then, the weight of this thing is almost more than doubled.

"It seems that there is still a need for improvement." "I hope that our scientific and technological workers will work hard to come up with better finished products," Mhammad said. ”

"Yes." The person in charge replied excitedly.

In addition to bulletproof inserts, the design of the combat vest is also very reasonable, it is based on the TAC series of the United States in the future, the Molle bar on the abdomen can carry up to six large AK magazine bags, each containing 2 magazines, or two drum bags, and the waistband of the vest also has a Molle strip, which can be mounted with a bayonet, a water bottle, a three-section folding sapper shovel, a pistol magazine bag, a grenade bag, a leg bag attached to the left belt, and two horizontal straps are fixed on the thigh, which can be used to put the pistol magazine bag, A grenade bag and some miscellaneous items, a pistol quick-flare holster can be hung on the right leg, a saddle bag can also be hung on the right crotch, a split raincoat can be put as well as a gas mask, a towel, a toothbrush, toothpaste and a portable cutlery. The left chest pocket of the vest holds a medical bag and a walkie-talkie bag, and an American L-shaped flashlight hangs on the right side. There is a Molle bar on the back, which can be attached to the water bladder and the drum bag, which is large and can be used as a long-distance reconnaissance backpack. There is a strap at the upper end of the back to facilitate the help of others to the wounded soldier.

With the development of Pakistan's electronic technology, it has been possible to develop walkie-talkies with small size, which can be used by such advanced means as walkie-talkies to facilitate command in coordinated operations on the battlefield.

At the back of the model, there is a large backpack, similar to the ALICE backpack of the US military, using an outer aluminum alloy bracket, which can not only be backpacked but also can carry radio or artillery shells, etc., three large pockets can also be easily accessed items, the backpack contains three-day rations, individual tents, a change of clothes, hanging mats and so on.

When the infantry is fighting alone, this large backpack is the logistical supply. In later generations, when special forces were fighting in the field, they often saw this kind of backpack. (To be continued......)
