Chapter 169: Hiss! Airburst bombs?
Just when Director Huang was drinking melancholy, Wang Ye's meeting was still continuing.
"At the moment our pickup trucks and six-wheeled off-road vehicles are finalized."
"There are two models of pickup trucks, the advanced version has better body sealing, as well as heating equipment in winter, and a cooling system in summer, but no air conditioning is installed, we have tested it, the engine belt does not move, fortunately, our engine is not in the front position, after closing the hot air introduction channel and opening the blowing channel, the temperature in the car can be effectively reduced, but the specific needs to be tested in summer."
"The lower-tier version doesn't have any of these configurations, but the body has structural stiffeners and screw holes, so customers can install a variety of light and heavy weapons, such as our grenade machine gun, 12.7mm machine gun, 23mm double-barreled cannon, or 107mm rocket launcher nest and so on."
Hearing the introduction of the committee member, a surprised expression appeared on Wang Ye's face, and he couldn't help but ask:
"Has it been tested? Will it overturn because of too much recoil? ”
In this regard, the commissioner shook his head and said excitedly:
"Factory director, don't worry! We've tested it, absolutely not! ”
"I have to say, the design of your mid-mounted engine, the factory director, is ingenious, resulting in a very concentrated center of gravity of our vehicle, and the body structure is very stable, we have tested it, and it will never roll over!"
"In addition, there are two versions of the six-wheeled off-road vehicle, one is a soft-top version, and the rear row also adds a convenient interface that can be loaded with various weapons, and the other is a hard-top version, which can have a little bulletproof ability and better cabin sealing."
"In general, the follow-up is a matter of more testing, as long as it can pass the test, mass production can begin."
"However, I have a small request from you, the factory director."
Hearing this, Wang Ye nodded with a smile, and at the same time said with appreciation:
"Look, everybody! That's great! What's the problem, just say it! ”
"I like this way of speaking the most, you say, what's the little request?"
As soon as Wang Ye's words fell, the committee member smiled, looked at the senior committee member who was sitting not far away, and then said:
"Factory director, there are still a lot of plans for our various vehicles in the future."
"For the sake of the quality of our vehicles, I jointly applied with Lao Gao, hoping that the factory can build a comprehensive test site, including a circular high-speed test track, a dynamic test square, a fatigue durability test site, a brake test section, an operation test section and so on."
"The area may be relatively large, so we should not be able to put the inside of the factory, a few days ago I went with Lao Gao to see, along our gate to the outside, the left side of the place is good, the area is large and flat"
With the voice of this committee member, the senior committee member next to him kept nodding in agreement, and added:
"And it has to be compatible with a wide range of vehicles and types of vehicles, and it has to meet military standards."
"In this way, in the future, our related vehicles can be tested, and now our tests can only be carried out in the factory, which is neither safe nor comprehensive, and many of them have to go to the wilderness, which is not convenient!"
The voices of the two people talking echoed in his ears like chanting a mantra, Wang Ye felt his eyelids beating wildly, and finally Wang Ye still sighed and said:
"Okay, you guys write a report! There are also specific requirements and designs. ”
"I will approve, since we want to engage in the automobile industry, then this is a hurdle that cannot be bypassed, and this is an asset-heavy project, plus there is a few spare money in hand now, then according to high standards and strict requirements, the scale and grade must be interesting."
"When the time comes, it is better to contact the engineering team to carry out the construction!"
As soon as Wang Ye said this, there were not only these two people present, but several others were full of joy, they didn't expect that this project would pass so quickly, after all, if Wang Ye must insist on not doing it, then the wild road test is not improvised!
"Next!"
Then, Wang Ye said weakly.
Seeing Wang Ye's appearance, there was a burst of laughter at the scene, and another member said with a smile:
"Look, you people know how to ask for money, unlike us!"
"O factory director! Our two diesel engine production lines have been fully adjusted and ready to start production, and we have already trial-produced 22 V8 diesel engines, and are currently carrying out various test activities. ”
Hearing this, Wang Ye looked at the other committee member and asked:
"And what about our armored assault vehicles? How's it going? ”
The commissioner knew that the original combination of the V8 diesel engine was this armored car, and quickly said:
"You provided the key drawings, so it's on good track."
"In another three or four months, the frame system should be basically perfect, and it can be tested in trial production."
As soon as the words fell, another committee member next to him hurriedly said:
"Supporting composite armor, as well as welded turret, we are also in progress, composite armor has been tested hundreds of times, experimented with a variety of materials, as for the composite armor of ceramic materials you mentioned, our ceramic equipment has just completed installation and commissioning, and is in trial production, so it will take a while, but it will definitely not delay the final vehicle test."
Then, under Wang Ye's gaze, round after round of reports sounded.
"At present, the stability test of the solid rocket motor is still ongoing, but the overall performance is good, and the uneven column that occurred before has never occurred again after we have changed the production process."
"Recently we have carried out more than a hundred launches in complex situations without problems."
"But the high-temperature launch because it's winter and it hasn't been carried out yet."
"We have carried out several rounds of electroslag remelting production, carried out many experiments on the metal, and the overall performance is excellent, but it still does not meet the standards required by the factory director, there are some problems, are you free tomorrow?"
"The large-scale integrated circuit project has been going well recently, we have made some samples, the overall performance is still very good, has reached the current domestic sub-advanced level, recently our project team is divided into two parts, one part is about the mass production of the program construction, part is to continue to explore, but we lack enough reference targets, I feel a bit behind closed doors, so we hope to introduce a variety of American chips, for our reference and research, at the same time we also need a variety of literature and reference materials, We have to be in tune with the world in this regard. ”
"That's right! That's right! We need to bring in more computers! Now we are too short of this, we must have computers, and we must train a large number of talents in related fields, I wrote a 50,000-word report, I will show it to the factory director later, you have to take a good look at the factory director, the computer is very important, foreign tanks have begun to develop ballistic computers, we can not lag behind, we must step up! ”
"Even I think it is necessary for us to engage in personal computers, to engage in our own personal computers in Huaxia, so that our costs can be reduced, and this thing will inevitably have a wide range of applications in the future, we must not pay attention to it, the key is that although it is not simple, but it will not discourage us, as long as the director is willing to engage, you are willing to pay for investment, I am confident!" We are not afraid of slowness, we are afraid of standing! ”
The one who spoke took the initiative to invite Ying to the consortium, a top expert in domestic integrated circuits and machine languages, so the tone of his speech was also quite large.
The last person to speak was Li Baojun, who smiled and said:
"The rally went very well, especially after the first snow, everyone watched the snow and mud races with relish, but the performance of the two light riders was not very good, we were also very anxious, and even thought of a lot of ways, but the effect was average."
"As for the sales of Red Star ADV, it is even more hot, and there has even been a reversal of our goods, pulling our goods to other regions for resale."
"So we are going to expand the market after New Year's Day."
Hearing Li Baojun say this, Wang Ye nodded and agreed:
"I met in Yanjing, and there is also a motorcycle organization in Yanjing, what is it called Yanjing Knights, although it feels a little strange, but the starting point, purpose, and slogan are very good, I think you can continue to promote the development of this area."
"In addition, it is really necessary to expand the market."
"Of course, first bypass those areas that have motorcycle production capacity, prevent some local regional protection measures, and encroach on other areas first, and then they will be easy to solve, you should understand."
Li Baojun nodded with a smile and said:
"Factory director, don't worry!"
Then the meeting lasted for about an hour, and it was not until half past eleven in the evening that the whole meeting ended, after all, there are more stalls nowadays, and if the conference is held at one time, each project will be said for a few minutes, and the long time will pass.
However, in general, the progress of each project is still relatively good, after some guidance from Wang Ye, even many projects have made leapfrog progress, but there are still some projects that are still slow, mainly limited by the foundation of technology accumulation and processing and manufacturing, such as large-scale integrated circuits, such as electroslag remelting proposed by Wang Ye, such as radar, such as aviation aluminum alloy material projects, etc.
Back in his single dormitory, Wang Ye fell asleep.
The next morning.
After getting up, Wang Ye began to inspect the whole factory, and yesterday he had heard the verbal report, so he had to take a look at it on the spot today, such as pickup trucks, such as six-wheeled off-road vehicles, such as four-wheeled light trucks, such as V8 diesel engines, and so on.
When Wang Ye finished walking around, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning, and just as he was about to go back to his office, he saw a committee member coming over excitedly, and at the same time waved his hand to Wang Ye and said:
"Director! Director! The one you said yesterday, we've already figured it out on our side! ”
"It's the kind of weapon used to fight gyroplanes!"
Hearing this, a surprised expression appeared on Wang Ye's face, to be honest, Wang Ye did not have high requirements for the time of this project, after all, the goods he sold to the desert had just been ready to be delivered, and it was not too suitable to take out this thing at this time, after all, if Satler's gyroplane was shot down by others one by one, it would not be very good, and it could not be lost because of a small loss!
Besides, I haven't heard that other companies in the world have similar products, so it's good to slowly set up a project and start researching, but I didn't expect that I just slept and someone has already done it!
"Commissioner Cao, you're really fast enough?"
This committee member Cao is also a committee member in charge of weapons-related fields, mainly all kinds of light and medium-sized weapons, hearing Wang Ye say this, this committee member smiled and said:
"Actually, I had an idea at the meeting yesterday, but it was not too early, so I didn't say it."
"This morning, we rushed to work a little, and even the test products have been made, do you have any interest in going to see it?"
Hearing this, Wang Ye's curiosity was immediately lifted, he looked at the other accompanying factory leaders around him, nodded with anticipation on his face and said:
"Of course, Commissar Cao will lead the way!"
Subsequently, everyone came to the workshop laboratory where the project team of Committee Cao is located, after all, there is no building in the consortium at present, so the laboratories are in various huge workshops, and it is convenient to engage in production.
"Look, factory director!"
After arriving at the place, Commissioner Cao waved his hand, and the two young men carried over two crates, and at the moment of opening, Wang Ye was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but ask rhetorically with interest:
"Bazooka?"
In this era, there are two main types of weapons that can be used by individual soldiers, carrying the launched weapon on the shoulder, and the more common thing is something similar to RPG, although it is generally called "bazooka" or "rocket", but this thing should actually be officially called a rocket-propelled grenade, which is different from the real bazooka, and the real bazooka is actually a small missile.
For example, the FIM-92 anti-aircraft missile, nicknamed the "Stinger", which was officially put into service in the United States last year, is a small rocket in the style of individual shoulder-mounted aircraft, using optical aiming and infrared guidance.
It is precisely because of this that Wang Ye was so surprised, when the meeting was held yesterday, no member of the committee reported that the current consortium has overcome the technology related to infrared guidance, after all, this technology is not difficult, but for the consortium with a weak foundation, it is really not easy!
"Yes, the factory director, you are right, it is a bazooka."
"Yesterday you proposed that we want to have the ability to have anti-rotors, so I had this idea for the first time, although at the moment our infrared guidance project is not completed, but the impact is not great."
"After all, the flight altitude of the gyroplane is not too high, the flight speed is not too fast, and it is a target without the slightest armor, in fact, as long as you are careful, it is still very easy to target."
"You see, here is our warhead, there is a simple mechanical timing device, which can be rotated to determine the time of the fuse to explode, in other words, we only need a simple ranging and roughly determine the height of the enemy, and we can rely on the comparison table to basically determine the time of the warhead explosion."
"Then it's simple, follow our instructions, adjust the estimated amount of time, and launch!"
"In our warhead, there are tens of thousands of small-sized steel balls, which can cover a large area of airspace after the explosion, as long as the pilot is slightly affected, it will cause fatal damage, and even the rotorcraft has a simple structure, and the unarmored structure lacks sufficient defense for this kind of steel balls, such as thin iron fuel tanks, such as rotors, such as engine shells, are easily injured."
"Even the simplest, if you feel that you can't be sure of aiming, then launch a few more and directly cover the entire airspace, will it always have an effect?"
"And more importantly, the cost of this thing is very low, in addition to fighting drones, it can also be used to kill and injure living forces, and it has a variety of uses, isn't it very suitable for our African friends?"
At that moment, hearing the introduction of this committee member, Wang Ye couldn't help but gasp:
"Huh? So, this is a rocket-air-burst shotgun? ”
