As we all know, during World War II, there were groups of tigers and leopards in the "zoo" of the head of state. The two heavy tanks, Tiger and King Tiger, were famous all over the world, and there was also the super non-mainstream type Rat. But in fact, when it comes to his preference for heavy tanks, Mao Zedong
The bear is completely worse.
Compared to the extremely coquettish KV series, another heavy tank named after a leader is also extremely successful. Follow me and shout its name - 'Stalin'!
After World War II, Mao Xiong's Kojing Design Bureau began the design of the 'IS-7' heavy tank. This is an extremely abnormal tank. Its designer wanted a 'heavy armor, heavy firepower, and high mobility'
The perfect tank.
What’s amazing is that the talented tank designer named ‘Nikolai Shashmulin’ did it.
This tank uses the Navy's 130mm naval gun as its own firepower output. This thick tube is simply crazy. It also uses the 1050-horsepower diesel engine of the torpedo boat as its power. It is known as the medium-sized heavy tank.
Tank. Its total weight of nearly seventy tons is also very strong.
Judging from the standards at the time, the IS-7 was almost impeccable - it was just too expensive and complicated, and the bear who preached 'simplicity is beautiful' did not like it. Although it was developed, it was not put into mass production. But it can be said that it
It is the most powerful tank of Mao Xiong in the 1950s, bar none.
Zhou Qingfeng doesn't care about expensiveness or complexity, he doesn't want to use these tanks for a lifetime. What he wants is that they are powerful enough, and money and resources are not a problem for him at all. The best thing is - he can integrate the 1950s
The best technology in the world is used to manufacture this tank!
Thinking about the cruelty of the bloody battle at Changjin Lake, compared with the losses in the Battle of Yunshan, it was simply a piece of cake and not worth mentioning at all. If you want to survive in that harsh environment, you must have the best weapons.
Zhou Qingfeng didn't even return home after returning from the dungeon. He hurriedly called his old partner Xiao Jinlang and greeted him with a smile, "Old Xiao, have you eaten tonight?"
Every time Zhou Qingfeng came to the door laughing, it meant that there were all kinds of weird troubles. Xiao Jinlang was not surprised, but he made fun of Zhou Qingfeng's hungry tiger eating behavior, "You are also a big star after all, why?
Like he was released from prison?"
The two met in a small restaurant in the imperial capital. Zhou Qingfeng was eating a big bowl of beef noodles. Listening to Xiao Jinlang's teasing, he said with a bitter look on his face: "I just tried it for a few days for filming.
You don’t understand the food of the volunteers.”
Xiao Jinlang rolled his eyes and opened a computer he brought with him. "You said you wanted to find domestic tank experts to customize a few Korean War-level tanks. I immediately found an expert team for you. You made a request and I will do it for you.
Convey.”
"The requirements are very simple. Based on the IS-7 of the Soviet Union in the last century, integrate the best technology in the world at that time and produce five of the best tanks. Money is not an issue. The key is to have good performance, but the technical level used should not exceed 50.
Year, must be delivered within one month.”
Zhou Qingfeng was making requests while eating his own beef noodles. With China's current abnormal production capacity and the help of computer-aided design software, he was very confident in achieving this kind of 'perfect' tank.
For those who are interested in technology, Zhou Qingfeng's requirement is to arrange a composition that fully utilizes imagination. The expert team Xiao Jinlang hired is naturally not the best tank designer in the country, but a group of thirty or forty
The young and middle-aged technicians are very enthusiastic and devoted to their work.
Because this thing is so fun and does not require any high technology. The key is imagination and integration ability. Since Zhou Qingfeng was in a hurry, he ate the beef noodles all night long and waited for the results of the discussion by the 'expert group'.
Six or seven hours later, a preliminary plan appeared in front of him.
Pushing aside the dishes piled on the table, Zhou Qingfeng checked the electronic draft sent by the design team on his laptop. After a few glances, he discovered that the so-called 'expert group' Xiao Jinlang had hired was really for his project.
Open your mind.
The shape of the tank is still the 'IS-7', but it has been significantly modified inside and out. In order to give the nearly 70-ton iron thing good mobility, the 'expert team' replaced the original mechanical transmission with two electric transmissions.
A 600-horsepower diesel generator.
"Is this reliable? The technical level cannot be more than 50 years old, right?" Zhou Qingfeng asked on the computer.
The ‘expert group’ immediately responded, “No problem, the technology of generators and electric motors has not seen any revolutionary changes in more than a hundred years. The technology of the 1950s was already very mature.
Compared with mechanical transmission, electric transmission has great advantages, such as light weight and easy layout. It also eliminates the need for gearboxes and drive shafts, is simple and convenient to operate, greatly expands the interior space of the vehicle, greatly improves the performance of the vehicle, and can also
It is very convenient to use various electronic devices in the car.”
It sounds good, after all, more than sixty years have passed since the 1950s. The advancement of science and technology and the development of industry have made the difficulties of the past no longer an obstacle.
In addition to the modified power, the electronic equipment in the vehicle has also been greatly enhanced. Mao Xiong's mechanical fire control system has been replaced by Yingjiang's electromechanical fire control system. Tanks in the 1950s were equipped with at most one infrared night vision device, and the field of view was
It's very narrow, and there are four of them installed now, including both the commander and the gunner.
There are many small changes, and another huge change is the 130-caliber main gun. Mao Xiong likes to use thick tubes, but they use thick tubes on tank guns entirely because their armor-piercing bullets are so poor.
You must know that even when the Eagle was equipped with the M1 Abrams in the 1980s, it used a 105mm barrel. The reason is that it does not need a large caliber to achieve high penetration.
Armor effect. During World War II, Mao Xiong used a 1,22 mm 'heirloom'.
The 'Expert Group' retained the thick tube, but the ammunition was completely in line with the Eagle Jam, and they also improved the original semi-automatic loader. The loading speed and accuracy of the artillery were greatly improved, and the power was also much greater.
After reading the preliminary design, Zhou Qingfeng was actually very satisfied. With a wave of his hand, he allocated 100 million soft sister coins for the development and requested that it be manufactured as soon as possible using current mature technology for testing.
This arrogance shocked the 'expert team' across the computer screen - are you serious? We all thought it was a joke!
A group of technicians who were pulled out in the middle of the night were in a daze. A young technician poked a bald middle-aged man in front of the computer and asked: "Director, we have met a rich man. A total of 100 million. With this money
With the money, our workshop doesn’t need to be disbanded!”
The bald middle-aged man was also in a daze, and he was temporarily pulled over to complete this nonsense design task. Seeing that he was actually going to design a tank that was at the level of decades ago, he felt sad for his situation, but who would have thought...,
Can you really see money?
After a busy night, it was already dawn. The bald middle-aged man wanted to go outside and breathe some fresh air to clear his head. But who would have expected that the factory's finance department suddenly called the phone and said that a special amount of money had just arrived and that he wanted to give it to him by name.
use.
"How much money is there?" the bald middle-aged man thought to himself: Even if it's seven or eight deductions, at least leave half of it for me.
The finance officer said in an extremely envious tone: "A total of 100 million. It is said that the superiors directly gave instructions that this money is specially given to your project, and no one is allowed to touch it."
