The military exercise in Yanbei area finally came to an end. During this period, it began to rain and rain, but during this military parade, there was a clear day in the evening. Taking advantage of this short opportunity, the troops participating in the exercise were
, a grand military parade and parade were held.
53 ground teams and 6 air echelons walked slowly through the exercise field, and tanks crushed the ground. The tank soldiers were excited and saluted the rostrum.
For some reason, the 79 tank and the 80 tank were just a temporary test subject and did not really set up the troops. Therefore, neither of these two tanks participated in the exercise. After all, these two tanks are still
Confidential.
Therefore, the first tank phalanx of the exercise was still the 59-2 tank phalanx. Liu Dajun's sharp knife platoon was walking in the front. At this moment, his eyes were full of excitement and pride.
During the grand military parade, the voice of speech spread throughout the parade site.
"Our army is a strong pillar of the people's democratic dictatorship, and shoulders the glorious mission of defending the socialist motherland and defending the construction of the four modernizations. Therefore, our army must be built into a powerful modern and regular revolutionary army."
This speech is of great significance, which can be said to be an important marking point, marking the formal beginning of reform of the army and marking the entry of military construction into a new historical development period.
The autumn in the capital has begun to rain continuously. In the drizzle, Qin Zhenhua and others participated in the summary meeting of the exercise. As the main combat weapon of the ground forces, tanks have almost always played the leading role in this exercise.
of.
"In a modern battlefield, tanks not only need strong firepower, strong protection, and the mobility of tanks are also crucial." A careful analysis of this confrontation can make people feel deeply. At this time,
Mr. Huang spoke there.
"The 1224 tank uses a diesel engine with a capacity of 1,000 horsepower, which gives the tank a high maneuverability. It is precisely because of its high maneuverability that it can make various tactical countermeasures. Therefore, we really hope to use the power of our tank
The system quickly entered the 1,000 horsepower mark."
This time, when I saw the benefits of advanced power in the exercise field, the commanders of the tank troops were all eye-opening and were eager to increase their tank power immediately.
Now, after Mr. Huang finished speaking, he looked at Qin Zhenhua: "Zhenhua, can you Yimai Factory take on this glorious and great mission?"
I knew the troops would make this request! Qin Zhenhua's expression on his face was very serious and said to Huang Lao: "At present, our country has developed and mature, only the 12150ZL engine of the coal-provincial diesel engine factory. This engine currently has a stable output of 730 horsepower.
On the other hand, if you continue to improve it, the power will increase to 800 horsepower, which is already its limit.”
Of course, this engine is being improved, but according to Qin Zhenhua's long-standing judgment, it is its limit and it is impossible to continue to improve.
"So, if we want a diesel engine with a capacity of 1,000 horsepower, we must use a new solution. As long as our Black Panther diesel engine is successfully developed, the initial power will be about 1,200 horsepower. However, this diesel engine will take time.
So, if the army urgently needs this kind of power, then it will only be purchased from the outside world." Qin Zhenhua said: "The one we use now is a good choice. Although it is a little larger, as a
The lifespan of a civilian diesel engine is tens of thousands of hours, so we can use it until the tank is scrapped, instead of overhauling it in a few hundred hours like now.”
This tank engine was originally the engine of the Leopard-2 tank with a speed of 1,500 horsepower. It was reduced by the speed. After the speed was reduced, the lifespan was also increased. This is the essential feature of civilian diesel engines. It does not blindly pursue the maximum power.
, instead pursues life and fuel consumption.
This engine is indeed really fuel-efficient. Although it has a power of 1,000 horsepower, it is even more fuel-efficient than an 80-tank 730 horsepower diesel engine.
Hearing this, Mr. Huang could only shake his head helplessly, and it was obviously impossible to place the engines of tanks in China that needed hundreds of vehicles on foreign purchases.
"Hasn't our engine station been actively working hard recently to continue to promote the mapping and imitation of this engine?" Huang Lao asked.
"I'm sorry, I won't comment on this matter." Qin Zhenhua said. Since he said he would not comment, it was a sign of his attitude. He was not optimistic about the mapping and imitation of this engine.
This is true. After several years of engines, they asked for money and people to give them. However, the final report was frustrating, and now, it was heard that they wanted to buy Germans.
396 diesel engine, by purchasing the technology of this diesel engine, it can achieve technical improvements in domestic tank engines.
The engine office has already placed its hopes on purchases. Will the Germans, who have always been smart, agree so easily? At that time, everyone wanted to buy a few Leopard-2s and came back to study them, but as soon as they spoke
, it is to buy hundreds of vehicles before you consider technical issues.
I guess the German 396 diesel engine I want to buy, I guess the Germans will also ask to buy hundreds of them first?
Everyone is concerned about the engine now. Tank engines are the heart of the tank and are the most challenging thing for a country's industrial foundation. Now, when everyone is discussing the engine, Qin Zhenhua has already pulled the topic away.
.
"Everyone, I saw another problem in this exercise." Qin Zhenhua said: "The main force of our tank unit is still the 59 tank. The improvement of this tank will support our country's future for a long time.
Now, its main improvement is in firepower. I think it should continue to improve its protection."
During this period, Qin Zhenhua has been thinking about how to improve the protection of the 59 tank, and at this meeting, he finally put forward his ideas.
Protective power? Everyone looked at him with confusion: "The armor of the 59 tank has been fixed, how can we improve it?"
"Yes, the armor has been set, so if you want to improve it, there is only one way left." Qin Zhenhua said: "We can install explosion reaction armor on it, so that it can greatly improve its protection by increasing its limited weight.
