In fact, many high-end models have a chassis height adjustment function, which is adjusted by an independent air suspension system.

It's just that their lifting range is very limited, most of them are between 5 and 15 cm, and the effect is not too obvious, so the practicality in actual use is not large, and it is more just a gimmick.

The lifting device designed by Chen Mo is different, the suspension system of this bulletproof off-road vehicle was originally a multi-link independent suspension, and the design freedom of this suspension is very large.

Through the design of the constraint angle connecting the motion points, the suspension can actively adjust the wheel alignment during compression, which can be completely matched and adjusted for the model, so as to maximize the tire grip and improve the handling limit of the whole vehicle.

And when driving, it can effectively control the camber angle of the wheels, and the performance in comfort and handling is very good, and it has a lot of room for adjustment and modification.

This provides great convenience for Chen Mo's improvement, Chen Mo combined with the suspension system and deformation system of the bat fighting vehicle, and made improvements to this set of multi-link independent suspension, which enhanced the adjustment range of the wheels while ensuring sufficient strength and stability, and directly merged the independent chassis lifting system and independent suspension system of other models.

Through clever design, the structure of this upgraded independent suspension system is not particularly complex, while it has strong shock absorption and wheel adjustment, chassis lifting function, and the simple structure also makes this system very strong, stable and reliable.

The height adjustment of the four tires is much larger than that of other high-end models with height adjustment, and the effect it can play will also be unmatched by these models.

Through the adjustment of the wheel position, the chassis height can be reduced to a minimum of 10 centimeters to ensure maximum stability, play a higher speed, and the highest can rise to 50 centimeters, which is higher than the chassis height of general military off-road vehicles and armored vehicles.

In addition to the suspension system has made large changes, other systems have also been somewhat changed, but the magnitude is not large, and the main part of Chen Mo has been modified, the R & D and design department teams only need to make slight adjustments according to Chen Mo's modifications, and refine some parts, the overall change is not large, the workload is not much, and it does not take too long.

Chen Mo asked them to complete it within three days, and it seemed that the time was very tight, but Chen Mo knew in his heart that the difficulty was not great, but it would be very busy.

Chen Mo's preliminarily modified design drawings were sent to the R&D and design department, and they quickly adjusted the relevant details according to Chen Mo's modifications, such as the size of the parts, the specifications and models of the parts, etc.

The modification of these specific suspension systems, parts and other parts was completed by the corresponding teams of the R&D department, and the design department, which was mainly responsible for the body shape, interior and exterior decoration, also received a modification drawing sent by Chen Mo.

In fact, if a car is simply divided, it can be directly divided into two parts: body and chassis.

The most critical core part of the whole car, all the main functional systems are all on the chassis, including the engine, clutch, steering wheel, fuel tank and other transmission, driving, steering, braking and electrical control systems.

In fact, even if there is no body, the assembled chassis can actually drive normally, and in the test process of automobile production, it is common to see a car without a body shell, driven by the testers, like a fully convertible car driving in the test field.

If the chassis part is the body of the car and the core of the car's driving operation, then the body shell is like its clothes and armor, which plays a beautiful and protective role.

It is possible to drive naked, but it is certainly not as comfortable and safe as it would be with clothes and armor on.

The body of the bulletproof car is better than heavy armor, which provides more powerful protection for the car's engine and other systems and the occupants in the car.

However, the drawings sent by Chen Mo to the design department took off this layer of vital heavy armor!

In the drawings, Chen Mo did not change the original body frame, but the body armor, ceramics, special alloys and bulletproof composite materials that play a bulletproof role were all canceled, only the bulletproof glass was retained, and the entire body shell was replaced with a 3 mm thick steel plate.

Although it is much higher than the thickness of 0.8 to 1.2 mm in ordinary models, it is definitely not as good as the original bulletproof armor, not to mention the built-in ceramic, special alloy and other bulletproof materials.

It is simply impossible to expect such a layer of three-millimeter-thick steel plate to play a strong bulletproof role, at most it is only stronger than ordinary off-road vehicles, able to withstand the shooting of small-caliber pistols, and absolutely cannot withstand the shooting of large-caliber pistols and rifle weapons, not to mention attacks such as grenades and bombs, this kind of defensive performance is not a bulletproof car at all.

Could it be that their new boss plans to change his previous position and stop in the field of bulletproof vehicles?

It's not impossible, after the boss improved the complete version of the new engine was manufactured and installed on the prototype car, many of them were curious to run to the test site to watch the test, the powerful power is still fresh in their memory, if as drawn on this new set of design drawings, cancel the heavy bulletproof armor, and replace it with this three-millimeter-thick ordinary shell, then the weight of the body will be reduced a lot, the performance of this off-road vehicle will be stronger, and it is not impossible to surpass the acceleration ability of the sports car.

Powerful off-road ability and super acceleration performance combined with extreme speed may be more popular than bulletproof cars.

However, if the boss really plans to do this, why should he keep the 3 mm thick body steel plate? Wouldn't it be enough to use a conventional steel plate with a thickness of 1 millimeter or even 0.8 millimeter? This extra twice the weight of the steel plate is enough to weigh three or four hundred kilograms, and if you pursue speed, it will also have a great impact.

Such a layer of steel plates that can only resist small-caliber pistols, even if you want to continue to play bulletproof gimmicks, it is not possible to take care of all three, it is better to simply abandon the concept of bulletproof, focusing on off-road and speed.

Although they were puzzled, they still quickly revised it according to Chen Mo's drawings and requirements, and their work was easier in comparison.

Chen Mo was very satisfied with the shape of the body they designed, and did not make too many modifications, so they only needed to cancel the bulletproof armor structure and modify some parameters of the body.

After three days, the entire model was completely revised, and the production line was integrated and ready for production.

New smelting, forging, casting and processing equipment has also been installed in the original refitting workshop, which will serve as an engine production center for the production of new engines.

However, the production of engines is not the whole work of this workshop, which can be seen from the layout of the workshop.

At the end of the huge building is a row of huge vacuum arc melting furnaces, which can melt a wide range of high-melting metals under vacuum, and are often used in the production of special alloys.

The engine block and piston are made of high-strength aluminum alloy, while the crankshaft is made of alloy steel, and Taylor Motors has not mass-produced engines before, and the aluminum alloy and alloy steel used by the engine development team are all recast and processed directly from the finished alloy materials purchased from outside, so they do not actually have a formula for high-strength aluminum alloy and alloy steel for engines.

However, this is not difficult for Chen Mo, the technical reserves he brought from the Hydra are quite comprehensive, and the formulas of several engine alloys are not worth mentioning at all, and two of the neatly arranged vacuum arc melting furnaces are specially used to produce engine aluminum alloy and crankshaft alloy steel.

Various raw materials are added to the furnace for smelting according to a certain proportion, and in a vacuum environment, these metal raw materials are rapidly melted under the high-temperature arc of thousands of degrees formed by the discharge between the electrodes, and various metal elements are blended with each other and become one.

The fully melted and bonded liquid alloy is then injected into the pressed mould, and after the belt is gradually cooled, the preliminarily cast cylinder block and crankshaft are subjected to the next process, where they are roughed and finished by CNC machines.

The engine line, which consisted of a large number of equipment, from the initial alloy melting, casting, processing to final assembly, took up only half of the space in the huge building, while on the other side, the production line, which also started with two vacuum arc melting furnaces and included more large machinery, produced steel plates of different shapes and sizes.

This is the production line of the body shell, the melted golden-red molten metal is directly pressed into a three-millimeter-thick homogeneous steel plate by the rolling mill after several processes, and then after cutting, stamping, welding, assembly and other processes, it becomes a piece of tough, smooth arc silver body shell, skeleton, ceiling, door, engine cover, trunk cover and other parts are all made of this steel plate.

It's just that this kind of steel plate is not an ordinary color, otherwise Chen Mo can directly use the ready-made steel plate he bought like other automobile companies, and there is no need to smelt and produce steel plate from scratch.

As the design department guessed, after improving the engine, Chen Mo saw the potential of this car in terms of speed, and planned to achieve the ultimate in speed and acceleration performance.

But he does not intend to give up the bulletproof function and pursue off-road and speed instead, but intends to take off-road, speed, and bulletproof into account at the same time, so as to fully stimulate the potential of this car and maximize its competitiveness.

There is no problem at all in terms of off-roading, but to improve the speed and acceleration performance, the weight of the car must be reduced, and while ensuring the bullet resistance, it seems impossible for anyone to reduce the weight of the body, but for Chen Mo, it is a simple matter.

Not to mention the strong performance invented by Dr. Mark Klein, second only to the Edman alloy, and the alpha alloy that can be manufactured using conventional materials without vibranium, Chen Mo alone has a variety of high-strength special alloy formulas from the scientific and technological materials brought by Hydra.

After comparing the most powerful alloys in the world, Chen Mo chose the one produced now from the large number of special alloys in the database.

Compared with those expensive titanium alloys and other super alloys, this Hydra H-2 special alloy is not only more defensive, lighter, and much lower in cost, although it also contains a lot of expensive metals, but the content is very small, and the average cost is not high.

This layer of three-millimeter-thick special alloy steel plate is not much heavier than the shell of an ordinary car, and the weight of the whole vehicle is less than 100 kilograms heavier than that of ordinary steel plates, which is equivalent to pulling one or two more people, and does not have much impact on the acceleration performance and ultimate speed of the car.

In terms of defense, it can be comparable to the body armor that originally weighed more than a ton, or even surpass it a lot.

Don't look at this layer of special alloy steel plate is only three millimeters thick, but the strength is very high, ordinary pistol bullets can't even leave too deep marks on it, and the bullets of conventional automatic rifles can only make the steel plate slightly dented, but it can't penetrate at all, even if it is subjected to continuous high-intensity attacks, it can also ensure a long-lasting strong defense.

Unlike ordinary bulletproof vehicles, if the same area is attacked multiple times in a row, and the bulletproof armor or ceramic plate is shattered, the defense cannot be guaranteed, and it is easy to break the defense by attacks from behind, causing damage to the people in the car.

Therefore, although in terms of data, there is little difference in the power of the strongest attacks they can resist, but in actual use, the actual performance and durability of the defense of this H-2 special alloy steel plate are far greater than the bulky multi-layer bulletproof armor of ordinary bulletproof vehicles.

This is of great significance to the safety of the occupants in the car.

Because the purpose of the bulletproof vehicle itself is to be able to resist the attack within a certain period of time in the event of an emergency, ensure the safety of the people in the car, and quickly evacuate the dangerous area.

The period between being attacked and successfully evacuating can determine the life and death of the people in the car!

If the attacker has strong firepower, such as a machine gun and a high-velocity high-power weapon, the armor of an ordinary bulletproof vehicle, even if it resists the initial attack, is likely to be breached by the subsequent continuous attack, and can be used to evacuate and escape for a very short time.

With this layer of H-2 special alloy steel plate, even under the continuous strafing of multiple automatic rifles or machine guns, this bulletproof off-road vehicle designed by Chen Mo can still last for a long time, providing more time and guarantee for safe evacuation.
