Chapter 928 Improvement of Anti-Tank Missile Launcher
The wheeled chassis has many uses, but the body is still not large enough and is not widely used in some scenarios. For example, when you want to carry your own 105mm rifled gun, you must use a four-axis-driven vehicle. Therefore, the focus of the next stage of research and development must be four-axis-driven off-road vehicles. However, in some scenarios, this kind of vehicle seems to be a big one.
For example, anti-tank missile launcher.
For mechanized infantry, enemy tanks have always been a huge threat. Infantry fighting tanks has been an urgent topic in China for a long time. After many research, it was discovered that this kind of infantry fighting tanks was naturally the best way to fight tanks.
Back then, the Red Arrow 73 series anti-tank missile was developed. This anti-tank missile, which uses manual control model aircraft general technology, was just the original product and was far behind the world's level. The Red Arrow 8 series anti-tank missile was just a catch-up.
This anti-tank missile uses the launching method of a launch cylinder and also uses semi-automatic control in control. There is no need to manually control the flying towards the target, just aim at the target. After it appears, it will inevitably become an effective weapon for infantry to deal with tanks.
In addition to using a single-soldier tripod to launch, the car is a more suitable choice. As for which car to use, it is a question of whoever is wise.
After the meeting, Qin Zhenhua came to the shooting range of the first aircraft factory and looked at the Red Arrow-8 anti-tank missile launcher being tested here. Since it didn't need to be too big, the car was simplified, just like the original three-axis vehicle was cut off from the back and turned into a two-axis launcher.
Wang Liming has left, and he returned to the capital early because of the recent 8*910 project meeting. The people who are currently in charge of the test are all employees of the First Machine Factory. Li Changjiang took Qin Zhenhua and went straight to the launch vehicle.
"We just made a little adjustment on the original chassis, and at the same time reduced the engine's power. There were not many changes in other aspects." Li Changjiang said: "This time, not only are our chassis participating in the parade bidding, but also the chassis of the 63 armored vehicle."
In fact, for a long time, the troops did not trust wheeled chassis. After all, if you want to cross-country, you still have to rely on tracks to make it more suitable. In the last round battle, the brilliant performance of wheeled chassis changed many people's views. After all, the crawler chassis has great resistance. In many places, if the crawler chassis cannot be raised, the wheeled chassis is no problem.
Now, with this performance, the troops have more recognition of the wheeled chassis, but it is not easy to defeat the 63 armored vehicle chassis.
"In comparison, the characteristic of our chassis is that it is cheap and facilitates the troops to have a large amount of equipment." Li Changjiang said: "For the army with rapidly shrinking military expenditure, cheapness is very attractive, but this does not mean that cheapness will definitely succeed. After all, the troops have to fight."
Qin Zhenhua nodded, yes, the troops must fight. Only equipment with advantages on the battlefield can they gain recognition from the troops. At the same time, the first-machine factory must also provide weapons that meet the battlefield standards to the troops.
He followed the door behind and looked inside, looking at the devices inside, frowned.
"What's wrong?" Li Changjiang asked Qin Zhenhua. When his expression appeared, it meant that he was dissatisfied with the current situation.
"Since we have become a launch vehicle, we are still like a soldier, using only one launch tube. Doesn't it seem a bit too thin?" Qin Zhenhua asked.
The chassis of this car was provided by the first machine factory and the weapon device was tinkered with by Professor Wang Liming's team. In fact, it was transplanted from the Yuejin brand off-road vehicle, but it was just a hand-crank lift and a hydraulic lift with a mature technology.
It's still a single tube!
Whether it is a Yuejin brand off-road vehicle or a 212, it is a modification of a single-soldier device, so it is naturally a launch tube. However, now it seems that it is a bit inappropriate, and the firepower is too poor.
Of course, after each launch, when lowered into the vehicle body, you can replace it with a second launch tube. However, when this separate anti-tank missile launch vehicle suddenly encounters the enemy, how can you have plenty of time to complete such an operation?
No, you have to change!
"Our vehicle body has enough space. Just make the launch tube above into four rows." Qin Zhenhua said: "The four launch tubes are lifted and lowered together. When it is necessary to fight, the first missile hits the target, and the second missile can also be launched at any time, which is much faster than changing the launch tube after lowering it."
Our Eastern powers have always been concerned with firepower as king. How can such a launch tube meet the needs? Especially the products of our first-machine factory are the most advanced in the entire country, and they must be one level higher than other brother units.
When Qin Zhenhua said this, Li Changjiang nodded seriously: "Yes, it would definitely be better if there were four launch tubes, but in this way, the weapon system would have to be updated. These are all done by Professor Wang and the others."
"They? We should have figured it out during this period, right?" Qin Zhenhua asked.
Although everyone is a chassis, it is impossible to know nothing about this top. During this period, everyone must have had a deep understanding of this missile.
"Yes, we have some understanding, but if we understand it, it doesn't mean we can create it." Li Changjiang said: "It takes time. We may not be able to catch up with this meeting."
"No need to make it, as long as we have design drawings." Qin Zhenhua said: "Let's just compare the brothers' units with this design drawing!"
The brother unit he mentioned is naturally a brother unit that uses a track chassis. They are also building this kind of anti-tank missile launch vehicle. If nothing unexpected happens, they will definitely use a single-pipe method. At that time, they will have a single-pipe and our four-pipe, which will definitely be our win.
Add more chances of winning to your own bid!
After Qin Zhenhua said this, Li Changjiang nodded vigorously: "Okay, let's do it!"
"Of course, we also need to increase the support of electronic devices, increase the degree of automation, and make it... a special weapon control station!"
Li Changjiang showed longing in his eyes. If this was the case, it would be even better!
