Super military empire

"The main role of the infantry fighting vehicle is to provide protection for the armored infantry in cooperation with the tank, and to further provide medium and short-range fire support for the infantry. In this way, the tank is mainly responsible for the long-range large-scale equipment and fortification attacks, and the armored vehicle is for short-range fortifications. As well as light equipment for attack, the infantry is the protection of armored vehicles and tanks in near-ground operations. A firepower network is formed on the battlefield..." Liu Yijiu explained to everyone.

He must change their mindset.

In some aspects, it is best to be integrated and multi-functional, but in some aspects, it must be specialized and subdivided.

This is very contradictory, but the development of weapons and equipment is like this.The development of military industry in this era had taken many detours. Liu Yijiu couldn't even figure out the necessity of equipping infantry fighting vehicles with large-caliber guns.

In urban combat, there are heavy artillery groups in the rear, aircraft and missiles in the sky that can be supported at any time. Although the penetration capability of tanks is very strong, the speed of this kind of thing is not fast. In close street combat, it is easy to be As a target, it's a nest.

The tank is more advantageous than tanks in street fighting.

In field warfare, sometimes the role of tanks does not even have the mobility of infantry fighting vehicles, and their combat capabilities are not too high.

The aircraft in the sky cannot be guarded by tanks and cannot run at speed. They must be protected.

Infantry fighting vehicles will replace tanks in the future, becoming used for air defense and anti-armor and providing short-range fire support for small infantry.He wants to get on the armored vehicle directly, but when there is no more advanced air defense and anti-armor missiles, he can't increase the power of the infantry fighting vehicle to a greater extent.

"In addition, if there is such a war, the ground far, middle and near firepower network will be formed, and if the air is equipped with helicopters and fighters with three-dimensional firepower, how many enemies can resist under such a war situation?" Liu Yijiu said. , Making everyone lost in thought.

"Director Liu, let's do it according to this?" Jiang Ming didn't know how much the war monster on the blueprint could play after he stepped down.However, due to the existence of anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles, this attack power is at least many times stronger than the 59 tanks currently equipped in China.

At the same time, although the coaxial machine gun is missing, the ability to spawn on the battlefield will be much higher.

The anti-aircraft machine gun is mainly used for air defense, but under the current circumstances, this thing will be transformed into a high-level dual-purpose, and it is mainly based on infantry shooting on the ground!If equipped with two thousand bullets...

"The automatic loading mechanism of the t72 is used inside, reducing one operator, which will increase a lot of space. In addition, the layout of the magazine and the crew compartment needs to be modified, so..." Liu Yijiu said. On one side, the layout inside is drawn on the drawing.

For the internal layout, he directly adopted the xm1 cockpit and ammunition compartment separate layout, instead of the Soviet-style storage of shells directly under the tank's turret. Once hit, it is easy to happen. Smashed.

He even plans to change the front-wheel drive to the rear-wheel drive, adding a pair of steering wheels in front of the original steering wheel position, that is, turning the original five pairs of wheels into six pairs, and finally think about this plan to realize it. It is too difficult and the site has to be redesigned, which is simply unrealistic.

So I can only give up.Although that has great benefits for the flexibility of the tank, it is not very easy to realize for China, which is weak in technology.

"Director Liu, I have another question. If we follow the welding turret we currently use, will the strength and protection be weakened?" Shen Wei always feels a little awkward to abandon the tank that has always used a round turret.

At first, the original circular turret was used on the design drawing, but now when Liu Yijiu is drawing the internal layout, he finds that the circular turret will make the space smaller.

Simply brush a few strokes to change the round turret to the xm1 design with a large inclination slope.

"According to our research, an inclined surface with a large inclination angle seems to be far more capable than a design without an inclined surface..." Cao Feng saw Liu Yijiu's changes in his eyes.

This design makes it easier to install reactive armor.

Only the use of welded armor can make the realization of the entire armor easier.According to their design, a 180 mm thick composite main armor on the front of the turret has seven layers!The thickness of the homogeneous steel armor is only 70 mm, mainly to add a layer of high-strength carbon fiber...At the same time, the ceramic balls on this will also be embedded in the homogeneous steel armor, and there are some ceramic pillars. Inserted inside at a forty-five degree angle, which can effectively increase the horizontal thickness of the armor...

These designs can effectively offset the kinetic energy of the armor-piercing projectile.Even, there are two layers of hollow titanium tubes arranged inside. This is mainly because the hollow tube has a very large influence on the direction of the jet...

The outermost part is a barrier shielding device for rockets that has become an anti-tank artifact in order to prevent it from becoming flooded in the world.Anyway, Liu Yijiu used all the practical, low-cost technologies and designs of the Five-Nine Demon Reform.Whether this thing is beautiful in the final production, he simply doesn't bother to care about it.

Weapons of war are not used for people to drive to and from get off work, but to kill people.

The strongest firepower, the highest defense, the most flexible operation performance, and the most powerful power system. On the site of this 59th tank, Liu Yijiu, a latecomer, has achieved a perfect balance.

In the end, it is unknown whether it can become the strongest Five-Nine Demon Reform in the world.

Anyway, he felt that in the future no one would be able to surpass his demonic reform of May 9th.Not even the Soviets who designed the 54/55 series tanks!

These designs are not very difficult to achieve, but are based on a lot of research.Most of the technology comes from the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century.After this kind of magical modification, the tank is not even 59 anymore, except for the chassis, nothing else has any similarities.

This is also Liu Yijiu's preparation for the next step that they independently design a new generation of Republican main battle tank that can compete with the xm1 and Leopard 2 of the third generation tanks.

"You can experiment at that time. I'm just a suggestion. I don't have to say that this is the case..." Liu Yijiu said with a smile.

Others laughed too. Liu Yijiu did this every time. He said that the result was much better than the original conventional one. There was no need to waste time and money to experiment.

"In addition, a pressure relief plate must be installed at the back of the magazine. When the magazine is hit and cause a martyrdom, the pressure of the explosion can be vented upward or backward to avoid impact on the front passenger compartment..." American The research results can be used directly.

As for whether the domestic technology is too bad, Liu Yijiu will not care about whether it can be realized. These big experts will always come up with some solutions.

"This side skirt is unnecessary? It's still 20 millimeters thick, which is hundreds of kilograms..."

"No, the side and front and back skirts must be provided. This can effectively protect the suspension system. At the same time, it can also block a part of the dust. The threaded fasteners are used to connect, which will make maintenance more convenient..." Liu Yi Jiu firmly disagrees to remove the skirts on both sides of the track.

While discussing and revising, in the end, if this thing did not have tracks and a 51-caliber 105 rifled gun barrel, no one would think it was a tank.

Even after the magic change, the total height of the fifty-nine tanks, according to the current design, is only 2.23 meters, which is more than ten centimeters shorter than the 2.4 of the US m1!

However, not many people who discussed with Liu Yijiu knew clearly.

"Basically, that's probably the case. Some other areas that you need to improve, please slowly modify during the experiment..." When the final discussion was about the same, the outside was already bright.

Another sleepless night.

"Director Xiao Liu, now that we are focusing our energy on this, should we put our armored infantry fighting vehicles back first?" He didn't sleep all night, and he didn't understand many things. Qian Dayong's spirit Not as excited as these technicians, very tired.

There is a big difference between tanks and infantry fighting vehicles.

Only because they had no chassis plan at the beginning, they could only use the 59 tank to design an infantry fighting vehicle.

"No, it is completely unnecessary now. The fire control system can be the same on both sides. As for the gun, since everyone thinks it is more appropriate to use a 40mm cannon, it is not a problem. Most of the technology is universal, even There is no problem with armor, so naturally there is no need." Jiang Ming did not wait for Liu Yijiu to speak, but he objected.

Many new technologies will be used on this tank. Although many of them are very difficult for them, Liu Yijiu’s explanation makes them feel that these things are not very difficult to achieve for the technical reserves in the Ninth Academy’s base. As for the electronic system, just leave room for upgrades in the future.

They currently need to produce prototypes to test firepower, defense, and even mobility.

If there is no problem, put the tank directly on the southwest battlefield for actual combat inspection.

The bosses above did not completely end the war in the Southwest in order to train their troops, and the monkeys were engaged in such a gang. The three most elite All-Soviet Weaponists were completely wiped out. The equipment suffered heavy losses and the personnel suffered heavy losses. The Soviet Union gave They once again supported the equipment of the five divisions. How can they swallow this breath?
