Chapter 901: The King of Guns (First update, please subscribe)
FW190.
70mm rocket.
They are all ready-made technologies, but who could have imagined that they would play such a powerful role on the battlefield when combined.
Actually, sometimes weapons don’t have to be so advanced, the key is how they are used. Undoubtedly, when it comes to the use of weapons, Nanyang has always adhered to the principle of "making the best use of everything" and never wasting it.
Even if it is scrap copper and iron brought back from Europe, they will find a way to squeeze out their remaining value and finally sell it instead of leaving it there to rust.
In this regard, Nanyang is somewhat similar to Israel. In another world, Israel is an expert in transforming old weapons. Even in the 21st century, it still uses a large number of British Centurion main battles imported in the 1950s. Tanks, but they have been transformed into heavy armored personnel carriers. Until the 1980s, they were still selling their modified M4 tanks to foreign countries.
When it comes to "putting new wine in old bottles", Israel is definitely an expert. The most important thing is that the things they sell are not cheap, and they are also well received by the countries where they are used.
It has to be said that sometimes old bottles can be sold for a good price. The key is to show people how the old bottles should be used.
Soon a "Butcher Bird" flight show exposed the truest side of the "Butcher". The four "Butcher Birds" in the sky were like flying eagles. In a silent manner, he suddenly crossed the treetops, and when he was still 3,000 meters away from the shooting range, he suddenly attacked the shooting range with rockets. For a while, the shooting range was filled with smoke, and the smoke cloud of the explosion enveloped the entire shooting range.
When the Israeli military delegation was shocked by the powerful lethality displayed by the aircraft, the attack aircraft group that had fired the rockets did not stop. Instead, it flew directly over the shooting range, with the bombs hanging under the belly roaring. Fall down. The bomb broke into several pieces in the air, and hundreds of cluster bombs engulfed the shooting range like raindrops.
"...After using rockets to destroy the marching column, the air strike group took the opportunity to fly over it and drop J-500 kilogram cluster bombs. The cluster bombs carried 202 small bombs inside. The weight of each small bomb It is about 1 kilogram, and the killing radius of each small bomb is about 30 meters. In other words, each cluster bomb can cover a relatively small area. "
Now Pinhas Lavon and the others have no idea. They didn't pay attention to the instructor's explanation, and all they could see was the shooting range - the target area was completely enveloped in the terrifying hail of bullets. After witnessing the amazing effects of this ground attack. Pinhas Lavon almost subconsciously came up with an idea - with them, Israel will definitely win the next war!
He even saw how the Arab armies were wiped out under the attack of the "Butcher Bird".
For Israel, which has an absolute disadvantage in population, Israel needs more advanced weapons to be able to fight against the Arabs, who have an absolute advantage in population and military strength.
The "Butcher Bird" in front of them is exactly what Israel needs. He can make up for Israel's military disadvantage to the greatest extent.
Although they are excited, they still have to negotiate. After all, they need to purchase various weapons when they come to Nanyang this time, including fighter jets, helicopters, tanks, and even the K50 assault rifle. The Israeli delegation is also quite excited. ——They have been excited for more than a year. As early as the first Chang'an Defense Equipment Exhibition, they purchased 2,000 pieces.
In the past few years, the K50 assault rifle has become a famous brand product in Southeast Asia. The US military even purchased thousands of them during the Peninsular War... But after the war, there was no news. Last year, NATO member states still chose the United States' 7.62x51mm caliber ammunition as NATO's standard ammunition. And this fact also pronounced the death penalty of the K50 assault rifle.
So, even if Israel is very interested, it has not continued to purchase it, because everyone knows that it has no future for development.
While the Israeli delegation was throwing coins in Nanyang, several people were surrounding several small weapons in the conference room of Nanyang Defense Company.
"Is this the Soviet rifle we brought back from Siam?"
While speaking, Zhao Xuezhe had already picked it up with a curious look on his face.
Zhang Huize replied.
“Yes, this is an assault rifle given to the Panon Rong Guards by the Soviets. It is only equipped with his guards. Before this, we did not have such information. It should be a secret of the Soviets. Weapons.”
“AK47…”
Looking at the assault rifle in his hand, Zhao Xuezhe probably could not have imagined that in the next few decades, the rifle in his hand would become the most famous weapon in the world. In Africa, South America and the Middle East, almost all weapons It will be found wherever there is war. "How is its performance?"
Looking at the milled receiver, Zhao Xuezhe asked.
"How to put it? It's hard to put it into words."
Afterwards, Zhang Huize introduced.
"In terms of weapon performance, its most commendable thing is its reliability. It not only fully passed the reliability test, it was even more reliable than we imagined, and its structure is simple. However, the AK-47 is not a perfect weapon. The sight range is 800m, and the effective range is 400m, but in fact it is inaccurate beyond 300m, and the burst accuracy is even lower. This is its biggest shortcoming. When the bolt frame hits the bottom of the receiver, it also fires continuously. One of the reasons is the low accuracy, and it is easy to loosen the sight.”
Zhang Huize is an engineer at Carl Metal Company, belongs to the design team led by Hugo Schmeisser, and is also the designer of the K50 assault rifle. One of the chief designers, as the company's small arms expert, began to conduct all-round testing on the AK47 after coming into contact with it.
Naturally very knowledgeable about its performance.
"In other words, can it catch up with our K50 in terms of performance?"
"Everyone has his own strengths, manager. The K50 has high accuracy, light weight, and slightly heavier bullets. It has a long range, but its reliability is slightly lower than that of AK47. ”
Listening to Zhang Huize's analysis and looking at the K50 assault rifle on the other side, Zhao Xuezhe thought for a while and said.
"How many did we get in total?"
"72. It is said that this was a gift given to Panonrong by the Soviets at the beginning of the year. There were only 150 in total, and the military kept them Some were used for testing, and the rest were given to us. We used 5 for testing."
As soon as Zhang Huize finished speaking, Zhao Xuezhe said,
"Take out two. Send ten to the Americans, and give them enough ammunition.”
"To Americans? Why?"
Zhang Huize asked with some confusion.
“For our K50!”
Zhao Xuezhe said.
“Although the K50 and 7mm ammunition performed very well during the US military test, they still chose full-power ammunition as NATO standard ammunition, and we are likely to use the same ammunition as them in the future. Here In this case, our K50 will either change its caliber or give up. Now..."
Pointing at the AK47 in front of him, Zhao Xuezhe said.
"At least the Americans must understand that the Russians have already used assault rifles, and their full-power ammunition is destined to be eliminated."
After a pause, Zhao Xuezhe sighed.
"Now, we can only place our hope on the Russians! I hope their AK47 can convince the Americans to give up their full-power rifles!"
