In a cheering voice, Wang Ye, who was standing on the armored chassis, waved his hand and said with a smile:

"Alright, let's go back!"

"It's not too early, it's time for dinner."

"At half past seven in the evening, let's gather in the big conference room and have a simple meeting!"

Accompanied by Wang Ye's voice, a sound of response sounded at the scene, and then Wang Ye jumped off the armored chassis and began to walk towards the interior of the factory surrounded by everyone, chatting while walking.

As for the armored car chassis, it was naturally handed over to the staff to drive back, Wang Ye didn't want to suffer this crime, and continued to curl up inside.

In addition, although the prototype of the chassis has been trial-produced, but this is only the beginning, there is still a lot of work to be carried out in the follow-up, not to mention the supporting turret and other equipment, this chassis alone has to go through a lot of testing, find problems and modify problems, and finally achieve the expected design goals, and ensure that it is stable enough to meet military standards.

"Commissioner Liang, how many prototypes are you going to build?"

"Have the other prototypes started?"

On the way back, Wang Ye turned his head to look at Commissioner Liang and asked, and Commissioner Liang said without thinking:

"According to our plan, we need at least about 20 prototypes."

"Normally, we don't need so much, but we have limited time, so we can only compress the test cycle by quantity."

"In addition to this one, there are currently five more being manufactured."

"Counting this one, a total of six, it is the first batch of prototypes."

"In fact, the relevant test work, we have started a few days ago, judging from the several projects that have been carried out so far, the overall performance of our armored chassis is still good, and it has basically reached our expected goals."

"I am optimistic that the future testing should not be a big problem, mainly focusing on minor repairs and minor repairs, and will not cause major changes."

"Mainly because in the process of design, many constructive opinions put forward by the factory director are very valuable and forward-looking, and all kinds of experiments and tests have been done, and the overall preparation is relatively sufficient, so when it comes to the prototype, there is a lot less trouble, resulting in the overall test is quite smooth."

"Of course"

Speaking of this, Commissioner Liang couldn't help but smile helplessly and said:

"There's another reason, and that's that we don't know how we should continue to strengthen and upgrade our chassis."

"Even sometimes we feel like we're crazy, and we actually think that our chassis is quite perfect."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Ye laughed directly, and Commissioner Liang waved his hand and explained:

"As you know, director, our general-purpose armored chassis is almost all from scratch, and there is no front-end model, so there is no reference target."

"You just said that our old 59 chassis, how to compare with our chassis?"

"Whether it is engine power, armor thickness, or internal dimensions, it is not a level at all, let alone the chassis of 59, even if our 69 chassis, or even the 79 project that is being carried out, there is no way to compare, the overall gap is too big!"

"In this way, a large part of the data and experience we have accumulated in the past in terms of tanks is equivalent to useless, and it cannot be applied to our chassis or even the tanks built with this chassis."

"You just say, how thick is the armor on the old 59? How thick are we? It's not a level at all, not to mention the artillery, the strongest artillery of the old 59 is the 105 caliber rifled gun, our chassis is going to be on the 130 smoothbore gun, how do you compare it? ”

"Other than that, the bigger question is."

"In recent years, we have not had actual combat data against world-class tanks, resulting in our reference enemy actually only the T-72 of the Soviet Union, and this T-72 tank is strong and strong, but it is not strong in fact, after all, this is a tank ten years ago, so we all think that we can't take the T-72 in our hands as the ultimate goal, we must target the world's first-class tanks, such as the American M1 tank, the West German Leopard 2 tank, or the Soviet T-80 tank and so on."

"But these are more advanced, we are blind, we don't know anything!"

"Without comparison, there is no goal!"

"If you don't have a goal, how can you progress? How to adjust it in a targeted manner? ”

In the end, Commissioner Liang seemed to be in a complicated mood, and his voice was quite emotional, while Wang Ye couldn't help but smile.

In fact, the mentality of Committee member Liang is very easy to understand, that is, under Wang Ye's request, encouragement, and technical support, from the beginning of the design of this tank, the performance is at the crushing level compared with the current domestic 59 and 69, which has caused these scientific researchers to completely lose the goal of comparison and reference, to put it bluntly, from their point of view, there is the problem of "imagining" making weapons, because they do not know what level the enemy is.

And what can be used for comparison, whether it is 59 or 69, is not an opponent at all, and even the Soviet T-72 tank, to some extent, is also not an opponent, such as defensive armor, such as engine power, and also cannon power.

In the end, there is a "problem" in the mentality of these researchers in the consortium, and they will think like this:

"The old 59 is too backward to be worth comparing at all."

"It's normal for performance to crush the old 59."

"The T-72 can be compared, after all, the T-72 is a third-generation tank, with many equipment from all over the world, and it is said to be the largest main battle tank in service in the Soviet Union."

"However, the defense and firepower of the T-72, that is, the two most important indicators of the tank, seem to be equally inferior to ours"

"We seem to have made something amazing."

"Impossible! When pigs fly! We are a backward country, how can we easily compare with the big brother of the Soviet Union, or even touch the ass of the world's advanced level? Something must have gone wrong! ”

"Oh! Understood, the T-72 is called T-72 because it is a 72-year-old product, and ten years have passed since now, in fact, it is outdated! ”

"That's right! That's right! It must be like this! ”

"This is an early model of a T-72, and in the next ten years, the Soviets must have improved and improved the T-72 in all aspects, maybe the T-72K has already appeared, and 26 letters are not enough."

"Not to mention, the USSR has already come up with the T-80 tank!"

"Yes, yes, we are comparing the most advanced T-72 and T-80, but the most advanced T-72 and T-80, what is the armor? What is the depth of wear? How much horsepower? There are also night vision systems, fire control systems, etc., what level are they? ”

"Well, I don't know! Didn't know anything."

"So is this thing of ours okay or not?"

Wang Ye thought about it with his toes, and he could guess that there must be many scientific researchers in the Red Star Consortium who thought so, and the reason why this situation occurred was very simple, there were two of them.

First, domestic backwardness has been imprinted into their bones, and foreign ones are definitely advanced.

Second, they subconsciously ignored Wang Ye's secret guidance and help that transcended the times.

The first reason for similar problems is that in fact, not only the current scientific research departments of the Red Star Consortium exist, but also the domestic military scientific research departments in the next three or five decades.

That is, as a catch-up, the goal of domestic military scientific research workers must be world-class products, but how strong the world-class products are, in fact, everyone is not particularly clear, because there is no relevant data at all, although the future network is developed, there is some data circulating, but it is not necessarily true.

Here are two examples.

When China was engaged in the fifth-generation aircraft, the object of reference was, of course, the F-22 Raptor fighter of the United States, but when everyone knew that the lift coefficient of the F-22 was as high as 2.0, they were directly confused, because the shape of the F-22 of the United States had been studied badly, and it didn't look like it could come up with a 2.0 lift coefficient?

As a result, scientific researchers naturally wonder whether the United States has applied some "black technology" that China has never heard of at all!

Therefore, in order to deal with this imaginary enemy "Raptor", Cheng Luoma's scientific researchers can only determine the lift coefficient of the domestic fifth-generation aircraft to be 2.0 or above, so that on paper data, and the "Raptor" This terrifying enemy has the power to fight, otherwise the data level can not keep up, even if it is created, it is also hung by the enemy, unable to protect the motherland's airspace, so what's the point?

In the end, the J-20's lift coefficient reached a terrifying 2.2!

However, when the J-20 has been flying for several years, a shocking news suddenly came that the 2.0 lift coefficient of the F-22 Raptor fighter announced by the US Hexagonal took the initiative to be fake, but in fact, the lift coefficient of the F-22 is only about 1.7 to 1.8, which is very consistent with its short and stubby figure.

Of course, it is not entirely correct to say that it is fraudulent here, it should be said that it is "war terror"!

And similar things, in fact, are not limited to this case, but also in terms of air-to-air missiles, when the United States claimed that their fourth-generation air-to-air missile AIM-120D has a solid dual-pulse rocket engine.

The so-called double pulse, in fact, is the meaning of ignition twice, after the launch of the normal air-to-air missile, the engine will immediately ignite the work, and then accelerate the flight speed of the missile to the limit in the shortest possible time, and then the rocket engine will burn out and shut down, as for hitting the target, it mainly depends on the inertia of the early acceleration.

Therefore, when fighters use air-to-air missiles in combat, there is a "non-escape zone," and it is because of this characteristic of air-to-air missiles that in theory, enemy fighters cannot escape in the area where air-to-air missiles have the fastest speed, because the speed of air-to-air missiles completely crushes fighters, and it is useless for fighters to maneuver.

The dual-pulse air-to-air missile is to separate the solid fuel of the missile in some way, resulting in the air-to-air missile being launched, first accelerating to the limit speed, and then starting inertial flight, and so close to the target, the engine ignites again, and the speed of the missile soars again, then the possibility of the enemy fighter escaping will be greatly reduced.

Precisely because of this.

When I first heard that the AIM-120D of the United States has a solid dual-pulse rocket engine, the leaders and scientific researchers of the relevant domestic troops were directly stunned, because everyone knows very well the power of this missile, and when facing this missile, it will basically be locked into a dead end, and there is no possibility of survival.

"We must have the same dual-pulse air-to-air missiles!"

"Otherwise we are at sea, simply unable to resist the fighters of the Americans, unable to protect our airspace!"

So, the leader spoke, the scientific research unit took the oath, and the research and development began.

In a few years, the Thunderbolt-15 air-to-air missile using a dual-pulse rocket engine came out, and just when everyone was relieved and felt that they had the power to fight back, news suddenly came that the AIM-120D air-to-air missile data fraud of the old United States did not have any dual-pulse engine at all!

Stunned, everyone is stunned!

Thoughts flashed in his mind, Wang Ye patted Commissioner Liang on the shoulder with a smile, and then comforted him:

"I'm going to find a way to get some of the world's most advanced tanks."

"But that's not the point, the point is that we have to do our own good, we demand ourselves with the highest goals, the most rigorous standards, the most perfect attitude, and then we just walk with our feet on the ground."

"I am sure that the final result will not disappoint us!"

The reason why Wang Ye said this is because Wang Ye knows very well what the level of advanced tanks in the world is today.

Let's just say that the old American M1 Abrams, now equipped with a 105 rifled gun, it is impossible to compare with the 130 smoothbore gun of the complex in any case, and in terms of armor, the old American M1 is actually also very weak now, because they have not yet installed depleted uranium armor, and the most awesome thing about the whole vehicle, of course, is the gas turbine with horsepower explosion, as well as advanced infrared night vision system, barrel stabilization system, ballistic computer, fire control system and so on.

Therefore, for the upcoming Red Star main battle tank, there must be a gap compared to the M1 tank, such as the fire control system, such as the ballistic computer, such as the barrel stabilization system, but this gap is not so big, so that it will not be hung and beaten, and there is no power to fight back.

However, if it is the old 59 against today's M1 tank, it is really easy to be hung and hit, the observation distance is not as good as the enemy, the attack distance is not as good as the enemy, and the night aiming is not as good as the enemy.

But in the future Red Star tank, this will definitely not be the case.

Because as long as this 130 smoothbore gun roars and fires, as long as it can hit the target, whether it is front or side, whether it is the crotch or the chrysanthemum, it will die!

Let alone.

The current gap will be bridged little by little over time.

Because of this armored chassis, Wang Ye has referred to a large number of third-generation and fourth-generation tank-related technologies from the time of design, and from the design concept, it is the existence of crushing the world, but due to today's technology, it cannot be manufactured into a complete body in one step, but only step by step.

To put it simply, this chassis can fight in the future!

"By the way, what's going on with our turret?"

"And the bi-stability system, infrared night vision system, fire control system, etc.?"

Thinking of this, Wang Ye turned his head to look at Commissioner Liang and asked, in fact, Commissioner Liang is only responsible for the vehicle body, but these project teams all belong to the armored combat vehicle project department, so they all know some about it.
