Chapter 644: Run fast and hit far
The handover of the former's imitation counterpart has not yet been completed, while the latter's is even more unclear and the conditions are not met.
But as soon as this comrade spoke about his purpose, Gao Zhendong remembered it.
"General Engineer Gao, I'm a bit presumptuous this time. Here's the thing. During the previous equipment demonstrations, your many speeches on the Air Force's tactics and tactics were a great inspiration to me. After the meeting, I also took I have spent some spare time doing some in-depth research on the content you mentioned, and I have some experience. Although it is not mature, I still want to ask you to give me some guidance.”
After speaking, he took out a stack of paper. It seems that he is also very busy at work. The meeting was held for more than half a year before he could spare some time.
However, this also shows the seriousness of this comrade. If the things were brought a week after the meeting, Gao Zhendong would think that there was a possibility that Rob would not wash the mud because he was too fast.
Gao Zhendong took it and took a look at the theory of air combat.
Judging from the content, there are some shadows of energy maneuvers.
Although Citigroup's energy maneuver is not a golden rule, it is indeed a very instructive and widely applicable air combat theory in fighter combat in the next few decades.
It is indeed not easy for this comrade to come up with the prototype of this thing just by listening to a few words he said at the meeting.
Gao Zhendong took a cursory look at the catalog, flipped through a few pages, and decided that this matter could be well blended.
This comrade has rich practical experience, and his air combat skills are no problem, but his scientific and technical skills are slightly weaker.
The article collects, lists and analyzes a large number of air combat tactics, but there is no theoretical line that links them together. At the same time, there is mostly qualitative analysis and basically no quantitative analysis.
Gao Zhendong closed the materials and said seriously: "Comrade, if you want me to put forward any opinions or suggestions on this thing at once, I can't put it forward. I need to digest it properly. In this way, you can see You can’t leave the materials here, let me take a good look at them, summarize my thoughts, and then we can have a good discussion together?”
When the Air Force comrade heard this, he didn't feel that Gao Zhendong was trying to shirk. Instead, he felt that Chief Engineer Gao was serious about his work and was taking his article very seriously.
For this kind of article, Gao Zhendong, as an outsider in the Air Force, might feel that he is perfunctory if he can put forward opinions at once.
You need to be very careful and take time to digest it before you can make suggestions. Only those who really take it seriously.
The comrades in the Air Force were not in a hurry: "Well, I am taking the liberty of coming this time. I have already disturbed your time very much. This matter is not urgent. I will leave the materials here for you to read slowly."
Needless to say how busy Gao Zhendong is, just what he knows about some of the work in his field is already a heavy workload.
The two of them had a casual exchange of views on some of the relatively simple or clear contents in his articles, and had a great time talking.
After Gao Zhendong sent this comrade out, he turned around, picked up the material, and read it carefully.
——
In a certain conference room of the National Defense Work Committee, people related to the drills of the past few days were gathered together.
People from all walks of life came, including both parties involved in the exercise, as well as Army leaders and comrades from the Land Loading Bureau.
This matter is actually mainly handled by the Land Installation Bureau and the National Defense Work Committee. One of them is responsible for making requests, and the other is responsible for making equipment.
The development unit of the artillery position reconnaissance radar was also present, with faces full of joy. Although they and the blue command post were eventually blamed, that was not their problem, and the whole process proved that the radar played the expected role in every shelling, and the measurements were quite accurate.
There is also a unit that engages in heavy artillery! In this exercise, both those who hit and those who were hit were heavy artillery. They were going to get it for sure.
As the initiator of gun position reconnaissance radar, Gao Zhendong is naturally on the list. It can be said that without him, it would be difficult to drive down.
Everyone who knew him greeted him warmly. The new equipment he proposed turned the artillery combat methods and tactics upside down.
At the beginning of the meeting, as usual, the process was introduced first, but there was no more talk about the other processes, which have nothing to do with the topic. Today's topic is anti-artillery radar.
One slide after another, the entire process of shelling and counter-bombing as well as the time relationship were clearly explained. As part of the personal participation in the exercise, the comrades who studied radar also made many important additions, and some technical details needed to be understood by them.
To be honest, since the connection between several shellings and counterattacks was very tight, and even happened at a intersection, if it were not confirmed by many parties, it would be difficult to match the time.
This introduction made the comrades who did not participate in the exercise very enjoyable. The whole process was full of back and forth, and it was a race against time and exciting.
During the introduction, everyone really felt the difference between high-tech combat and traditional combat styles.
Finally, the comrades from the Radar Institute concluded: “This exercise fully proved the effectiveness of the artillery position detection radar. From the discovery of enemy artillery shells to the positioning of enemy artillery positions, the overall time was within 30 seconds, and the positioning error was no more than 150 meters. , the positioning success rate is 100% so far, very effective.”
Although the entire exercise has proven the effectiveness of this equipment, the data produced in an actual combat exercise environment still made everyone present take a breath.
They are veterans and they know exactly what this means.
This means that if you are fighting an opponent with the same equipment, you will need to evacuate within one minute at most from the time the first shell is fired, otherwise you will put your own artillery in danger. This is bad news, but the good news is that no one else has it yet!
So everyone is feeling cool, mostly because of the excellent performance of this set of equipment.
This thing is simply a killer.
As long as our side has a group of loaded artillery shells on hand, we can hit them as soon as they show up! You don’t even need a second shot!
With a positioning accuracy of no more than 150 meters, as long as the gun group has a sufficient number of barrels, once discovered, one coverage is enough.
Some comrades have even thought about what kind of artillery group they want? I put a multiple rocket launcher there, and upon receiving the news, it will fire all the ammunition, and then immediately reload the ammunition. At most two cannons squat there and take turns on duty. If the enemy is not beaten out, he will be considered clean the day before!
Then the comrade thought about the range of the rocket launcher... Well, forget it, let's stick to the barrel gun.
Today's rocket launchers are not like Gao Zhendong's previous life, which has a range of 299km at all times, and is usually just at the tail end of double digits.
As for how to use this equipment, all the comrades have a hundred flowers blooming, with all kinds of fantastic ideas and many ideas.
When it comes to how to prevent this thing, it is more troublesome.
The comrades of the Land Installation Bureau put it well: "We cannot expect the enemy to stand still and fail to develop this kind of equipment. We must prepare for a rainy day and deploy in advance."
Their statement is also supported by Gao Zhendong. Gao Zhendong is very sure that his opponents will do it too, and it will be very fast, and there will be no technical problems.
Everyone fully believed what he said. He might not be particularly clear about how to use it, but there should be no one who understands the technical aspects of this thing better than him.
Everyone thought about how to prevent this problem. The Eight Immortals across the sea showed their magical powers and came up with ideas one after another.
To sum it up, attack quickly, retreat quickly, and increase the range.
The former is easy to understand. You have to run after the fight, and you have to be fast, otherwise the counterattack firepower will fall on your head. As for increasing the range, the main thing is to make it impossible for you to reach me, and to control a wider range as much as possible. area.
At this point in the discussion, the problem arises.
How to fight and retreat quickly? How can the range be increased?
These two requirements are easy to raise, but it is not so easy to solve them.
Especially the range, this thing is originally one of the ultimate pursuits of gunners, range, power, accuracy!
Regarding quick attack and quick retreat, both the Land Installation Bureau and the army have actually had ideas for a long time.
——Self-propelled artillery!
Even without this incident as an opportunity, self-propelled artillery would have been on the agenda. With this incident, self-propelled artillery seems to be more necessary.
But here comes the problem - money!
"You want to replace all artillery with self-propelled artillery. Today's meeting cannot decide, but we can discuss it. I just want to ask, where will the money come from?"
The self-propelled artillery has nothing to say, and even if it does exist, the price is not something that anyone can afford.
Let alone now, even decades later, fully self-propelled artillery will not be realized.
The chief engineer of the National Defense Work Committee smiled and said: "To be honest, I don't even know what the self-propelled artillery will be made of now. Isn't it a little too early to discuss money?"
The comrades of the Land Loading Bureau were already prepared: "We have considered this matter. The 152 heavy gun, rotating turret, can protect 12.7mm bullets in all directions. This is the most basic requirement."
Now that such a valuable thing has been developed, caliber is justice, and large and long range is the right way. Otherwise, wouldn't this self-propelled artillery be in vain?
"The price of the 152 heavy gun, rotating turret, and omnidirectional protection cannot be cheap if these requirements are met. Moreover, the gun is so heavy, so the chassis cannot be light, and the price of the chassis is also a lot of money. If you do the math carefully, it's quite a lot. So the price of a heavy gun plus half a tank..."
These are the words of the leader of the army. He wants to use this self-propelled artillery more than anyone else, but he also knows better than anyone what our current situation is.
--poverty.
The troop leader's words made everyone fall into deep thought.
No one mentioned Gao Zhendong's name. He seemed unfamiliar with the artillery.
Gao Zhendong himself couldn't stand it anymore: "Dear leaders and comrades, I have some immature ideas."
After hearing his words, the Defense Working Committee remembered, who said he didn't understand artillery? Where did the gun used on the 5DL and second-generation tanks come from?
