Chapter 685: 50% starting?
Besides, this is not just preliminary research, it doesn’t cost much.
A chief said: "If we use the engine as the traction method, we can actually save a lot of money. It will be okay to at least conduct preliminary research. Well, just press 11500."
After saying that, he also had a hand.
“You are just in case,
I'm just in case.
It's all just in case..."
Okay, I got stuck. The chief turned his head and looked at the leader of the National Defense Work Committee: "Come on, pick it up, pick it up, I know you are good at this. . ”
?! Chief, what do you mean by this?
Is it tolerable or intolerable!
"We are beyond reach!" The leader of the National Defense Working Committee came very quickly, which is better than what he wrote. I have to look at the status, but compared to this? Who is afraid of whom?
"Hahaha, okay! Good call. Everyone is prepared, so let's look at each other and don't hit anyone. Let me tell you, this last sentence is the one that will save you. This poem saved me.”
Everyone laughed together.
——
Gao Zhendong had just finished revising the tutorials for project managers and system analysts and sent them to the computing institute, when someone came to see him.
The visitor has never seen it, but he has heard about it, at least about their results.
130 fire.
These comrades come from Fenglei Machinery Factory. As soon as they hear the name, they know that their products are not easy to mess with.
130 Fire is a type of equipment that Gao Zhendong regretted in his previous life.
Compared to 107 Fire, it is not much farther and more powerful, but it has a lot of equipment.
Some things, if they are not good enough, the more equipment you have, the more regret you will have.
Note that it is a pity, not that it cannot be equipped. The difference between the two is essential. After all, no matter how small a sparrow is, it is still meat. It is better than nothing.
No matter what the troops think, in Gao Zhendong's own opinion, it is estimated that the troops are holding their noses and equipping themselves.
Coming with them were staff from the National Defense Work Committee and comrades from the Land Loading Bureau.
This is very unusual. What is this for?
If comrades from the Land Loading Bureau also come, it is normal. After all, technical exchanges are also very closely related to them. But staff from the National Defense Work Committee also come, and they are not ordinary staff, so the information revealed by this matter is unusual. .
After all, they are the organizers and managers of scientific research work, but they are generally not responsible for specific technologies.
This time it was the comrade of the Defense Working Committee who spoke first: "Comrade Gao Zhendong, summarizing your speeches at many meetings, we have also done some research and analysis and feel that in terms of rocket launchers, there are It is necessary for everyone to sit down and conduct a careful analysis and study to see how this matter is going to be done and whether the current work direction needs to be adjusted."
Gao Zhendong was overjoyed when he heard this. Do you want to adjust? That's right, he had long been unhappy with the 130-gun that had a range of just over 10 kilometers.
This is not to be dissatisfied with the researchers. The comrades who made this thing also made it based on the existing conditions. Who doesn’t want something better?
Comrades from the Land Decoration Bureau explained the investigation situation.
"...The main opinion is still on the range..."
Although the 130mm fire has not been completed yet, its technical and tactical indicators have been clear.
Although the 130-gun doesn't look that big, and the barrel is short and stubby, but this thing is attached to the division's artillery regiment, which is very confusing.
In the eyes of future military fans, since they are all attached to division artillery regiments, and they are rocket launchers, your range should be the farthest among the division artillery regiments.
In fact, it was not the case. Among the division artillery regiments at that time, the longest range was the 85mm cannon, followed by the 122mm gun. The 130mm gun narrowly missed the 122mm gun by one kilometer.
The larger the caliber, the smaller the range, which is simply the opposite of Tiangang.
Of course, this is related to the structure of the gun. The biggest difference between a cannon and a howitzer is the length of the barrel of the cannon. So later on, when the howitzer went all the way to the double diameter, from 39 to 45 to 52, it basically changed. There is no such artillery type as the cannon, replaced by the howitzer.
But unlike these two, as a rocket launcher with the simplest gun structure and all its capabilities are on the bomb, the 130 caliber only has a range of just over 10 kilometers, which is very embarrassing.
“Comrades think that this gun is very powerful and has a high firepower intensity, but the designed firing range of 10 kilometers makes it impossible to implement many ideas. Some comrades joked that they originally wanted to This thing can urinate three feet against the wind, but unexpectedly it wets my shoes with the wind.”
Gao Zhendong did not rush to a conclusion, but asked a question: "What is the tactical mission of the 130 rocket launcher now?"
The comrades of the Land Loading Bureau flipped through their notebooks: "Threatening the enemy's assault armored cluster, urgently Attack the enemy's shallow and deep targets, block the breach, and make up for the firepower gap of the barrel artillery. "
When Gao Zhendong heard this, he thought this tactical mission sounded strange.
"Threat assault armored cluster? Why does it have to be assault? What about assembly, transition, etc.?" Threat "armored cluster" and "assault armored cluster" look similar, but there is still a big difference. .
"If you can't reach it, with a 10-kilometer range, you can only threaten those in the assault. Even those in the assault can only threaten those who are close."
Gao Zhendong understood, this is based on The range determines the mission, and it is appropriate to cut your feet to fit the shoes.
“As for the sudden attack on the deep target, why is it shallow depth?”
“It’s the same, the deep depth is out of reach.” Comrades from the Land Loading Bureau complained, and comrades from the National Defense Work Committee laughed. He spoke out and made the comrades in Fenglei Factory burst into laughter.
Gao Zhendong understood: "So it seems that making up for the firepower gap of the barrel artillery is also making up for it downwards?"
This is a nice way of saying that barrel artillery can achieve a small range by adjusting the angle and charge, and where it needs to be compensated downward.
“Well, yes, at least the firepower density of this thing is very high, which is still very good. By the way, originally we wanted to add a new tactical mission, anti-enemy artillery, but looking at the range, it feels like No chance. It's okay to beat a novice, but the range of this thing is terrible. The range of the new 122 grenade has been greatly increased. No matter how unreliable this anti-artillery weapon is, Gao Zhendong knows this better than them all. The new 122 grenade has the longest range. At 18 kilometers, the 130-fire 10-kilometer range can hit small and medium-caliber mortars.
The comrades at Fenglei Factory really couldn't bear it: "This 10-kilometer target has been set for a long time, and we don't dare to change it casually. Besides, rockets cannot be hit at long distances. It’s meaningless if it’s accurate.”
This is the biggest reason why today’s rockets can’t hit far, they’re not accurate.
Of course, there are other reasons, none of which are lost on us, they are all there.
Gao Zhendong smiled and smoothed things over: "Aren't we preparing to change the indicators? Don't be in a hurry, let's discuss it slowly."
The comrades of Fenglei Factory sounded very concerned about these words. Feeling comfortable.
Gao Zhendong looked at the comrades of the Land Loading Bureau: "After your research, what do you think the range of this gun is appropriate?"
The comrades of the Land Loading Bureau said: "We are also doing this internally. After a meeting, we discussed it and felt that under the current circumstances, at least 20 kilometers or even 25 kilometers would be enough.”
This is at least guaranteed to suppress the new 122 melons I am working on at range.
There is nothing we can do about it, just like the comrades who are engaged in tanks and anti-tanks. Now they really can't find suitable opponent's equipment to use as a reference, so they have to fight each other with each other's latest products. Some comrades even have It has also come up with the unparalleled operation of using self-forged fragmentation warheads of terminally sensitive bombs to fight composite main armor and heavy explosive counterattacks.
The comrades in charge of artillery in the army could not find any rival division (brigade) howitzer with a more suitable range than the new 122 howitzer, so they had to compete with themselves.
Gao Zhendong took a closer look at the existing design information of the 130mm, and said with a smile: "With this range, it means that the bomb must be greatly modified. If it is 15 kilometers, I have some confidence. There is no need to drastically change the ammunition.”
Comrades from several parties were shocked when they heard this. Isn’t that how you mentioned the targets? Starting at 50%?
At least the comrades of the Land Loading Bureau and the National Defense Work Committee know that the new 122 is lifted from 11.8 to about 18 kilometers.
As for the phrase "certain confidence", in their concept, Gao Zhendong has the same meaning as "strong confidence".
"Chief Engineer Gao, can it really reach 15 kilometers without changing the size of the missile body?" The comrades in the Land Loading Bureau were all excited. This is so interesting.
Gao Zhendong is a little strange, are you here to bargain for more than 20 kilometers? You're asking for a huge price and you're waiting for me to pay you back on the spot, right?
But he was really confident about 15 kilometers. The 130 extended-range rocket he knew in his previous life had not been greatly changed in size. At least it did not break through the limitations of the directional tube and increased the range to 15 kilometers.
And just now he also read the design information of this bomb, the rocket engine, how should I put it...
High EQ: The potential is still huge.
Low emotional intelligence: The design materials are average.
He mentally calculated the difference between the existing propellant and the propellant he had on hand, tried other configurations, and came up with a set of design formulas.
Next, his answer was very positive: "Yes, it can reach more than 15 kilometers without major modification of the missile body."
The comrades from the Land Installation Bureau were overjoyed. What they said made Gao Zhendong know what it means to want and want at the same time: "Great! Later, I will also invite the comrades working on 107 to come to you to learn from you, and you can give me guidance." , 50% is not needed, be more conservative and give them 30%, what do you think? "
The 107 has a range of 8.5 kilometers, which is 11 kilometers if increased by 30%, which is larger than the current 130. .
Gao Zhendong is a bit dumbfounded. Call him greedy. He also knows how to exercise restraint. He only asks for 30% after considering various conditions. Call him not greedy. He is still talking about 130, so you have gone to 107. .
But he is quite happy to hear about this matter, but he does not take it all. What if the rocket engine of Comrade 107 has been well designed and the potential of minor surgery is less than 30%.
“In this case, I can’t guarantee 30%, because I haven’t seen the 107 rocket engine design, but I invite them to communicate, no problem, we can arrange it at any time, I will try my best.”
