Super military empire

Chapter 429

Leaving aside the protection and firepower, only the maneuverability made Long Yaohua very satisfied.

The speed of these tanks is comparable to off-road vehicles, and such a high speed of movement can make the dispatch of armored troops easier.This also indirectly proves that the various performances designed by Liu Yijiu are not problematic.

"This kid, if his tank breaks down here, we don't know how much time will be wasted here!" Li Yunlong did not continue to object.

The dust outside is rising high, now there is no need to follow thousands to eat ashes.

But the proving ground is not far away.

He was originally full of expectations for this tank, and now he sees that the tank has reached such a high speed, the engine that has not completed the test and the performance test has not stalled due to any problems, the tank has not broken down, and naturally he can relax. .

This tank of son-in-law is very important.

"It is estimated that these tanks on the test field will show better performance in a while, and many tests such as the ability of trenching, climbing ability and so on will all be shown to us today." Long Yaohua is even more looking forward to it.

Li Yuming's face was ugly, not only because the off-road vehicle was too bumpy, but also because the front tank did not show what he most wanted to see.

Seeing him like this, Chen Shuhao shook his head slightly on his happy face, thinking about how to communicate with Liu Yijiu and the others. Maybe this young man and his team can give some design plans for the 541 base that is currently stagnant. Direction of development.On his lips, he sprinkled salt on Li Yuming’s scarred heart, “Sure enough, it’s a hero who grew up since ancient times. I didn’t expect that under the auspices of such a young man, this base just as a technical reserve could It is an honor for our entire country to make such a good tank in such a short time!"

Li Yuming gritted his teeth and didn't catch the stubbornness, but stared at the bastard Chen Shuhao with a complicated expression.

The 541 base, which has always been suppressed by their 617 base, is quite normal to have such a gloating mentality.

With the tank taking the lead, it didn't take much time from the assembly workshop inside the base to the test field.But it was almost ten thirty in the morning when I arrived here.Liu Yijiu and Qian Dayong sat on the off-road vehicle and drove to the test command center on the edge of the test field halfway up the mountain, where they took a telescope to observe the conditions inside the test field.

The test site is a valley, the entire area is relatively long and narrow, and the terrain is not very flat. In some places, some trenches over two meters wide have been dug out by engineering vehicles. At the same time, a lot of trenches have been built in some areas. , Not too high, the hills with different slopes pack.

Due to the new construction, there are still many construction marks everywhere, and it can even be said that the construction has not been completed.

"You kid, how can you run so fast! Can these tanks always maintain this speed?" When Long Yaohua and the others arrived at the test site, Liu Yijiu did not wait for them to start testing after they arrived.

There are too many items to test, and the test time is too long.

"Chief, since we left the base and entered the road, our test has already begun. Just now it was testing the road speed of the tank. Our tank is designed for performance, and it can travel 480 kilometers with full fuel without the auxiliary fuel tank. , The auxiliary fuel tank on the back butt is full, but it can run 650 kilometers..." Liu Yijiu directly changed the subject.

It's not a fun thing to struggle with things that are not necessary.All kinds of tests must be accumulated through countless tests, but they don't have so much time now.

If they can’t get the approval of these two bigwigs as soon as possible, and get the recognition of more big bosses from the military, they will be given financial allocations to produce a batch of experimental tanks for further testing. They can only continue to perform performance tests on the side. Begin the development of a new generation of heavy tanks.

With funds on hand, it is natural not to stop under the current circumstances.

After completing the test of the two prototypes of the American M1 tank, Liu Yijiu proposed some improvement directions and further modified it, and obtained 110 production orders.

The funding of the Republic’s military is a big problem. Liu Yijiu does not expect the Republic to place too many orders, but the first batch will require at least more than 20 vehicles to be equipped with two companies.

The war between the Southwest and the monkeys did not end. The Soviets’ T72s were stolen by the Republic’s special forces more than ten, and several were destroyed. This kind of thing caused their T72 tank export business to be affected. The Soviet Union There are quite a few tank experts here to investigate the situation and strive to upgrade their t72 as soon as possible.

The border between Vietnam and China will also become a testing ground for their new tanks.

Liu Yijiu hoped that a batch of tanks could go to the southwest border to conduct combat tests. In addition, some of the tanks in the north would conduct combat tests and other comprehensive tests.

Therefore, some performances of this tank must now be shown.

They must not be attacked with these tanks for protection.

Firepower test, this is not a problem, the ability to shoot while on the move, and the 125mm tank gun stabilization system can be quickly demonstrated.

"Director Li, does our tank only have appearance? Of course, I know, we definitely can’t compare with you. After all, your 617 tank production base is the best place in our country. We hope that Director Li can not Please enlighten me and see what areas of our tanks need to be further improved..." After seeing the speed of these tanks, Li Yuming began to maintain a distance from the heads of the Jiuyuan Base.

He thought so, but Qian Dayong and Jiang Ming did not let him go. After the tank showed good trench performance, climbing performance and wading performance, a group of general staff, logistics department and even the fifth machine department. The big guys took the initiative to find Li Yuming in their satisfied approval.

Li Yuming's face seemed to be able to squeeze the water out, but he did not give up, showing weakness for peace, but sneered, "Any tank production base can reach this speed, trench ability and climbing performance. You only need to reduce the armor weight of the tank. There is also a tank gun. Your tank should have a two-ton multi-tank gun. Plus the entire turret and ammunition warehouse weigh more than ten tons, the 580-horsepower diesel engine can run like this The speed of this is surprising! Old Chen, don't you think it?"

Chen Shuhao hurriedly shook his head and told everyone that he was just a manager and didn't know much about technology.

Li Yuming is trying to get him to fight with the Ninth Academy. He will not do such a thing. Anyway, the fate of the 541 base is doomed. The national strategic focus is shifted to the economy. This will reduce their already stretched funds even more. Many, they produce civilian products but they have brought good benefits. Now that they have the Dragon Guard I tank from the Ninth Academy, their research funding is likely to be cut off.

There is no need to get too stiff with the young man Liu Yijiu and the old men who are not low-key at all.

"Oh? Director Li is suspecting that our tank is just a mere appearance?" Jiang Ming's face also became very dark.

This bastard actually suspected that they had lightened the armor of the tank and installed a cannon that could not fire on it!

Sister-in-law can bear it, but uncle can't do it.

"This is not a question of doubt or doubt. Or you put the 1500 horsepower compressed diesel engine you got from the Americans on this? If so, I am thinking, how much space is there in your tank to carry it. Twenty shells?"

Li Yuming gritted his teeth and wouldn't believe what he saw with his eyes.Even if he believes in his heart that the other party has really researched it out, it is necessary to know what technologies are on the tank, and their 617 base can get these technologies in the hands of the military leaders, so as to develop higher performance on their basis. tank.

Of course, this is a possibility. The tanks of the Ninth Academy really have a direction for these performances.

And if the people in the Ninth Hospital are really making fakes and fooling the superiors, his words can be very lethal.

When Long Yaohua heard this, he gave him a meaningful look. Without speaking, Li Yunlong gritted his teeth with an expression that he was about to kick him to death, but in the end there was no movement.And Liu Qingshan's mouth twitched violently.

How could this guy Li Yuming become like this?

"Order them to fire a few shots for the chiefs to see!" When Liu Yijiu heard this, he immediately put down the binoculars in his hand, picked up the wireless communication radio in Li Rui's hand, and faced the climbing and wading in the test field. Ordered the tank.

On the hillside five kilometers away, there are many tank fixed targets that are only four square meters square, and they are painted white with lime.

Just after Liu Yijiu’s order was issued, a tank still in a puddle with a depth of 80 cm began to quickly land ashore, and another tank that was climbing a 30-degree slope also accelerated with white smoke behind its buttocks. .

"Car No. 1, Target No. 9, shooting while on the move, Car No. 2, Target No. 1..." Liu Yijiu ordered the two cars.

After his order was over, the big guys with a 78-type military multifunctional telescope just developed by the 298 factory began to look towards the tank in the middle of the test field.

The tank that came out of the puddle was car No. 1, and its target was target No. 9. It was three kilometers to their right. Under the observation of the big guys, the tank didn’t change its direction at all, and was facing forward. Not far away, he rushed over on a slope close to forty degrees. The speed was very fast. While advancing, the tank turret rotated to the right while the elevation angle of the gun barrel continued to expand, and the muzzle was raised high. Yijiu continued to order, and fired the first round of Longweiyi type while on the move.
