Chapter 1881 The new direction of 99 tank improvement
"Today, we are discussing the issue of the improved 99 tank." On this day, Qin Zhenhua presided over a factory meeting. The atmosphere in the conference room was very lively. For everyone, this was a long-awaited one.
At that time, for the sake of the National Day military parade, the first aircraft factory quickly built a 99 tank. The 99 tank at that time was still the early model. The V-shaped waveproof groove on the tank body also made many people speculate that this tank uses T-
The technology of the 72 tank is a replica of the T-72 tank, which annoyed many people at that time. The Tank Armored Vehicle Magazine also specifically refuted the rumor and cleared the name of this latest domestic tank.
The T-72 tank is just a tank built with consumption-oriented technology during the Cold War. How can it be compared with the heavy main battle tanks newly produced by the motherland? In terms of self-weight, the domestic 99 tank is five heavier than the T-72.
More than tons, in terms of engines, the domestic 1,200 horsepower engine far exceeds the 780 horsepower diesel engine of the T-72 tank. In terms of firepower, although they are all the same 125mm tank guns
, but the chamber pressure of domestic tank guns far exceeds that of T-72, and the two are not products of the same era at all.
Although the rumors had been denied at that time, there were still many news organizations that were not responsible for plagiarizing the arguments of third-rate tabloids to discredit the 99 tank. At the same time, for the domestic market, the 99 tank is indeed a transitional product. While equipping the troops in a small amount,
After improving the weaknesses of this tank, it was demonstrated in front of the world with the title of 99 tank modification.
Now, when it comes to the improvement of this tank, everyone present is very enthusiastic. The person in charge of the engine spoke first: "Director Qin, please rest assured that after these years of running-in, our 1,500 horsepower
The diesel engine and hydraulic transmission system are fully mature and will never let our tanks fall apart. Our tanks will have the most advanced and reliable hearts all domestically produced, and we are also pre-researching the latest one.
For a diesel engine with a thousand-to-eight-hp horsepower, if needed in the future, we can also install a more powerful engine to the tank."
At the beginning, it took more than ten years for the country to develop the Black Panther diesel engine, and to eliminate the faults caused by design problems, and it took many years to improve the engine. Now, it is finally the season of harvest, and the power has been improved to the top
Thousands of five hundred horsepower are still quite mature and reliable, and have begun to move towards the power of one thousand eight hundred horsepower.
The power of the tank engine must be constantly improving. On the one hand, the tank's armor will become thicker and its self-weight will become larger. On the other hand, the tank's maneuverability requirements will also be higher and higher, so the tank engine
The power of the company is not enough to reach 1,500 horsepower. The first-machine factory has begun to push the tank engine to a new height of 1,800 horsepower.
At present, the power of the tank with 1,500 horsepower is enough, but no one knows what the future will be. Back then, when the motherland was studying advanced tanks, the biggest obstacle was the engine, this kind of tank.
The heart directly determines the success or failure of the new tank project. When developing the Black Panther tank, it was full of risks and hardships. But now, we have finally reaped a lot of fruitful results.
Look at the world, capable countries are also promoting the progress of tank engines. The American gas turbines are shrinking in size and increasing in power. The Germans are also improving their diesel engines. As for Damao, they decided to do this.
A level of engine. After decades of development, the domestic tank industry has developed and has reached the world's advanced level. Moreover, the world's advanced level must be maintained.
Speaking of this, it is quite satisfying. Back then, in order to obtain advanced tank diesel engines, domestic personnel were sent to Europe for inspection. They were very interested in the 1,200-horsepower Perkins engine in the UK and were interested in introducing it.
However, the British did not export at all. At that time, this kind of engine was still of world-class standards. But what about now?
Nowadays, Challenger tanks still use this kind of engine. For decades, they have not improved the technology of this kind of engine. Moreover, the British export tanks are even equipped with European power packs.
It is the German engine, which means that in this regard, the UK has begun to lag behind.
You used to be ignorant of me, but now you can't stand it. When you think of these, everyone is more relieved.
"Our new type of tank armor has also been developed and matured by relevant departments." The person in charge of armor protection said: "Our new generation of explosion reaction armor is no longer bricks, and can cover the entire tank.
The front and even the side, plus our main armor and frontal protection capabilities, have the hope of reaching the order of magnitude of one meter."
The improved version of the 99 tank must be a complete transformation. The engine has been improved and the protection has also been improved. As for firepower, let alone.
"The Second Machine Factory has manufactured a new generation of artillery. Although it is still our 125mm caliber, the chamber pressure has increased by 10%. With our latest armor-piercing bomb, it can have a depth of more than one meter.
"The person in charge of the artillery said excitedly: "Even if we hit our own tanks, we have the ability to penetrate."
Now, the person in charge of armor protection is no longer in progress and immediately said that our armor can block all the armor-piercing bombs in the world!
As the argument was about to continue, Qin Zhenhua quickly interrupted them: "Now, what we are going to discuss is the new tank improvement plan, all of which are in our plan. Now, we need to have new developments,
New changes.”
Qin Zhenhua's words calmed the scene again. Everyone knew that Qin Zhenhua must have had new ideas. Everyone was waiting quietly to hear what Qin Zhenhua would say.
"One of the most important ideas is to improve the high-tech capabilities of tanks and improve the information combat capabilities of tanks. It meets the needs of future wars." Qin Zhenhua looked at the people around him and said, "I don't want to be so far, but I still have to do so."
Some people may say that the installation of electronic equipment in tanks will affect the effectiveness of their use in nuclear wars. What we are considering now is the future high-tech war."
For a time, combat under nuclear war was a hot topic. All kinds of weapons must meet the needs of nuclear war. In this way, you cannot install too many chips, because the neutron jet of nuclear explosion will make those chips completely.
Burn. However, nuclear war has never happened, and the situation of world war has become increasingly inclined to high technology.
