Chapter 131 Application of Battlefield Positioning Technology
"I see that the antenna on the positioning vehicle has not been installed? Is there something wrong?" After entering a tent here, Zhao Ye asked Qin Gong.
In fact, this question was asked to Gong Li who was standing next to him, but he was not familiar with Gong Li yet, so he was embarrassed to criticize others. If there was any misunderstanding, the impact on the mood would be small, but it would be a big deal if it delayed the progress.
"That's true. There are some problems with the design of the antenna. Our previous design had some shortcomings. We have modified it in the past two days and are currently processing it."
Before Qin Gong could speak, Li Chu on the side took over the conversation and started to explain.
"Oh? What's going on?" Zhao Ye was a little confused. Isn't it just an antenna? Although some new technologies are used on it, there won't be such a big loophole, right? It's all in place.
, only to discover the shortcomings.
"Harm, that's what happened. Before we were in the capital, we didn't expect the wind here to be so strong! So at that time we just considered how to reduce the weight, but the strength was insufficient.
We tried it a few days ago, but there was a deformation problem in the camp and it couldn't be recycled normally."
"Ah! There is still this matter. Have the organizers studied it? Is it a design problem or a material problem?" Zhao Ye did not take it for granted that it was a design problem. In this era, no matter how sloppy designers are, they will not
The wind load on the antenna is not taken into account.
In his opinion, it was more likely that there was something wrong with the materials.
"Ah, material? We haven't considered this. But it is processed from hot-rolled plates provided by Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant, so it should be fine, right? The quality of Red Star is still guaranteed." Li Chu said, but in his words, there was also
Not that confident.
When something goes wrong, first look for the cause within yourself. This is the common practice among technicians in this era. This is contrary to some trends in later generations.
"Bring the design drawings and let's take a look." Zhao Ye ordered. Although he is the youngest here, he has the highest position. As the chief engineer of the entire project, he still has the right to see the design drawings.
Besides, he originally drew the basic structure, and other technicians just made more detailed analysis and calculations on this basis, and came up with specific parameters, which were handed over to the relevant factory for processing.
Looking at the drawings in front of him, Zhao Ye didn't even take a minute to come to a conclusion.
There is nothing wrong with the design, but it seems to be a flaw in the materials.
If the material is not good, it is difficult to say. It may be a problem with steel smelting or a problem with the hot rolling process. After analyzing the specific problem in detail, Zhao Ye did not draw a conclusion immediately and could only wait for the antenna to be sent for reprocessing.
After the system was shipped back, he analyzed the material parameters before he could draw a conclusion.
Early the next morning, Tong Zhi and several other workers transported the reprocessed antennas back. Of course, they did not transport these parts back to the capital for processing, but found a nearby machining unit and used them there.
The antenna of the equipment has been re-strengthened.
Of course it can be used, but it is a little heavier. Not to mention increasing the burden on other mechanical components, it is left to the service life of the equipment, that is, in terms of the flexibility and maneuverability required by the equipment, the reinforced antenna
The system is also substandard.
Fortunately, it did not affect the test. Zhao Ye waited for everyone to install the antenna and immediately found Captain Zhao, hoping to start the test operation.
The test operation began, and the entire artillery regiment took action.
When they arrived at the experimental area, the four artillery battalions were deployed as planned. In the past few days, the staff of the artillery regiment had not been idle. They had already made several sets of test plans based on the characteristics of the new equipment.
The first battalion and the second battalion formed a cluster. Each artillery position was established in a very organized manner. Although Zhao Ye could not understand it, any organized action had a certain sense of regularity and beauty. On one side of this cluster, set up
Although it was a test, the artillery regiment still dug an underground command post in accordance with actual combat requirements.
At this time, Zhao Ye was standing here, directing the staff here to install and debug equipment.
In Zhao Ye's eyes, these equipment are still too outdated and too much. If there is a war and so many items are placed on the battlefield, the overall effectiveness will be reduced.
This is based on science. Assuming that the failure rate of each piece of equipment is 1%, if so many components are added up, the failure rate will rise geometrically. Zhao Ye estimated that the failure rate could not rise to 100%.
Thirty or forty.
However, new equipment is good if it is useful. Solve the existing problems first, and then decide whether it is good or not. As long as it is proven to be effective, then we can continue to improve on this basis in the future.
The road to improvement has never ended since ancient times.
"Zhao Ye, the equipment has been deployed. Do you want to start?" Qin Gong asked for instructions.
"Start up! All departments are ready." After speaking, Zhao Ye said to Captain Zhao: "We have started testing, please give us the order."
"No, no, you give this order. Our artillery regiment will cooperate with your work." Captain Zhao is not being polite to Zhao Ye, he really thinks so. After all, it is new equipment and new tactics, and he is leading a group of
The staff officers all took out their notebooks, preparing to record and study.
Zhao Ye was a little speechless when he saw the regimental leader's behavior. After all, you are the regimental leader. You cannot overstep your authority in commanding the soldiers.
Therefore, Captain Zhao became the mouthpiece here, repeating Zhao Ye's arrangements and turning them into orders.
"One Eye One, go to location 1425 and stand by!
One Eye 2, go to location 1308 and stand by!
One Eye 3, go to location 1213 and stand by!
Torch 1, go to location 0715 and stand by!
Torch 2, go to location 1815 and stand by!"
As orders were issued, the jeeps named "One Eye" drove to their respective locations. "Torch" is the code name of the relay vehicle. The so-called relay vehicle is actually a signal transfer vehicle. In order to achieve long-distance transmission of signals, it is necessary to
Set up one of these devices midway to strengthen the signal.
Of course, with the current range of artillery, this is not needed. Zhao Ye developed this smoothly to prepare for the next step of air force equipment.
When each vehicle arrived at the designated location, artillery observers carrying rangefinders were also in place.
Later, Zhao Ye thought that he should compare it anyway. So he first asked the artillery observer to start manual positioning and calculate the coordinates of the artillery strike.
As soon as he gave the order, Zhao Ye looked at his watch. Captain Zhao on the side saw Zhao Ye looking at his watch and immediately took out a stopwatch from his pocket.
Although this is a test, it is also a training and test for the artillery regiment.
