"Genzi, are you ready?" Director Xu came to Liu Gen and asked.
Director Xu and the others have been here for almost twenty minutes, and during these twenty minutes, Kong Jue and others have been checking the condition of the rocket launcher to ensure that there will be no problems in the subsequent test firing.
,
Faced with Factory Director Xu's inquiry, Liu Gen did not answer directly. He could only give a definite answer after asking Kong Jue and others. Kong Jue had always led the workers to inspect the rocket launchers, even if this
The rocket launcher was made by Liu Gen himself, but he could not guarantee that there would be no problems with the rocket launcher.
"No problem, let's start test firing immediately." Soon, Liu Gen said to Director Xu.
Factory Director Xu nodded with satisfaction. He admired Liu Gen's stability. Liu Gen did not give a direct answer on this matter, which was undoubtedly a sign of stability. For Factory Manager Xu, he hoped most.
What is important is stability. Problems may occur during the test firing of rocket launchers, but safety problems cannot occur.
After confirming that there was no problem with the rocket launcher, Kong Jue left with the workers. In the distance, the soldiers had already checked the area where the rocket launcher was to be tested several times to ensure that no one was present in the test firing area.
Liu Gen took a deep breath and walked to a simple trench twenty meters away from the rocket launcher. Originally, he was not prepared to test-fire it with his own hands, but Kong Jue and the others felt that this rocket launcher was made by Liu Gen himself.
Yes, I think it would be better to leave things like the first test launch to Liu Gen.
Because the rocket launcher is too crude, if Liu Gen were to press the launch button next to the rocket launcher, he would easily be injured. You must know that when the rocket launcher is launched, exhaust gas will be emitted from the rear of the rocket, producing smoke that can burn people.
Liu Gen didn't want to experience the feeling of being burned by the smoke. In this case, it was undoubtedly the best choice to fire the rocket launcher at a certain distance.
"Launch!" Liu Gen shouted.
During the shouting, Liu Gen pressed a simple button, and rockets flew out one after another. Seven seconds later, all twelve rocket launchers flew towards the test firing area. Under the watchful eyes of Liu Gen and others,
Rockets flew quickly towards the test firing area. Ten seconds later, the rockets landed in the test firing area, and bursts of explosions were heard.
Director Xu and others all held telescopes in their hands. Through the telescopes, they could clearly see the smoke and flames rising from the test firing area. This was the first time they saw the test firing of a rocket launcher before they had seen the power of a rocket launcher.
This gave Factory Director Xu and the others a great shock. Just the test firing of a rocket launcher made Director Xu and the others realize the powerful firepower of the rocket launcher. Once it reaches a large scale, it is very simple to suppress the enemy's firepower.
However, when Factory Director Xu and others put down their binoculars and looked at Liu Gen, they found that there was no trace of joy on Liu Gen's face, but an obvious solemn look on his face.
"Genzi, when designing the rocket launcher, couldn't a single rocket be launched? Can you demonstrate it to everyone?" Foreman Qi was a little confused about Liu Gen's state, but thinking of Liu Gen's gaze on the rocket launcher, he still smiled.
He spoke.
Factory Director Xu and others were stunned for a moment. After being promoted by Engineer Qi, they recalled this point. When Liu Gen designed the rocket launcher, he indeed mentioned this point. It was just that the power of the rocket launcher shocked them.
Factory Director Xu and the others had ignored this point, but now that Engineer Qi had mentioned it, Factory Director Xu and the others had a little more expectation.
"Okay, I'll demonstrate it to you right away." Liu Gen regained his composure and answered directly.
During the rocket launcher test just now, Liu Gen noticed some problems, but now there is no time for Liu Gen to solve them. Among them, some of the problems Liu Gen discovered cannot be solved in a short time.
Bring a prepared rocket. There is a white marking line on the rocket shell that is consistent with the flight direction of the rocket. It is used for aiming during simple launch. Of course, when you choose to use a white marking line for aiming,
The reference object is also due to the limited conditions of the arsenal. Even if Liu Gen wanted to produce a standard caliper sight, it would be very difficult.
According to the information obtained by Liu Gen, the Type 63 107mm rocket launcher is equipped with an extremely lightweight caliper-type sight with distance and azimuth scales on it. When preparing to attack, the sight is directly stuck on the rocket to align with the white indicator.'
By aiming accurately at three points and one line, you can carry out simple launches with a certain degree of accuracy.
However, due to the limitations of the arsenal, even if Liu Gen wanted to produce such a sight, it would still be difficult. With Liu Gen's ability, it is still possible to produce such a caliper sight, but this kind of sight is still possible.
The sight will become a disposable item when used on rockets, which is too luxurious.
Factory Director Xu and others gathered around Liu Gen and watched Liu Gen's operation. They could see that Liu Gen dug out some soil on the ground and patted the soil firmly to form a simple launch platform. Choose this
This is done in order to improve the accuracy of the rocket again. On the launch platform, the requirements for the rocket are not high. You only need to ensure that the length of the platform exceeds the rocket, thereby ensuring the stability of the rocket when it is launched.
Looking at the launch platform created by Liu Gen, Director Xu and others' eyes lit up. If rockets were really easy to launch, then they would be more flexible in use! There is no need for Liu Gen to explain, Director Xu and others can do it.
Thinking about how this flexible firing method is suitable for the guerrilla warfare of the Eighth Route Army units, the five-thousand-meter range can completely make the Japanese defenseless.
The five-thousand-meter range made Director Xu and others quite satisfied. They knew that Liu Gen’s expected range of the rocket in the rocket launcher’s design drawings was eight thousand meters. However, due to the conditions of the arsenal, even Liu Gen’s
Even the rockets made by one's own hands were unable to reach the intended range of eight thousand meters.
However, for the Eighth Route Army units, a range of five thousand meters is sufficient.
"Director Xu, please take everyone back, as there will still be some danger during the launch." Liu Gen explained.
Factory Director Xu nodded and led Engineer Qi and others back a certain distance. However, while retreating, he still stared closely at Liu Gen, unwilling to miss Liu Gen's every move. Under the watchful eyes of Factory Director Xu and others,
Next, Liu Gen pried open the back cover of the rocket, took out a match, lit the propellant and quickly left a certain distance to avoid being burned by the tail flame.
With a whoosh, the rocket flew out from the simple earthen platform and turned into a small black dot in the air.
