"Now, the Americans are going to cooperate with us." Wang Gang's face was filled with joy: "This matter is thanks to Assistant Qin. He went to the United States this time and took the initiative to bring us.
But our factory’s great benefactor.”
Wang Gang was almost grateful. During the meeting, someone in the factory expressed his dissatisfaction with Qin Zhenhua, but now he looked at it. It was Qin Zhenhua who was really willing to extend his hand to help them!
"Our biggest problem is the weapon system. The Americans are said to have to carry their turrets over and put them on our car body." Pan Dahai said: "What are we still standing there? Let's do it now!"
Everyone can't wait, so that their Type 86 infantry fighting vehicle will become an international cooperation project. With the name of Americans, it can be easier to open up sales, so that the entire factory will come alive.
!
"Let's first find all the information about this American M2 infantry fighting vehicle, study it, and see how to deploy it, so that we can speed up the pace. We must be fast. We must participate in this year's International Defense Exhibition. This is
A fight against the enemy.”
Without the National Day military parade project, what they can strive for now is this international defense exhibition. Fortunately, this will continue to give them hope.
Originally, they only planned to let the Type 86 infantry fighting vehicle participate in the exhibition, but now, when the news came, they immediately made this new choice: to let this modified vehicle with international cooperation also participate in the exhibition, and it must be a shot.
For this goal, I have made a lot of effort!
So, a few days later, when Qin Zhenhua brought Joyce Luo Rui and several technicians here, he saw another scene.
A Type 86 infantry fighting vehicle has been removed from its original 73mm gun turret, and a turret exactly the same as the M2 infantry fighting vehicle is installed on the original vacant seat!
"This, how is this possible?" When Joyce saw this scene, he was stunned. The turret in front of him was vivid, just like he had picked up the turret of the M2 infantry fighting vehicle.
Yes, I haven't said it!
"We made a wooden model on it." Seeing the guests, Pan Dahai was very proud: "It was completely imitated according to the turret of the M2 infantry fighting vehicle. If this turret is added, our infantry fighting
The car is simply refreshed and looks more energetic."
It seems more energetic? Such words are not easy to translate. The meaning contained in them is to have energy and spirit.
The original turret was round, just like a tank turret, but it was small. Now that this turret is installed, the square wedge turret is more imposing and full of modernity. At this time, the turret has poked up.
The crowd stood nearby and began to appreciate it.
"However, this makes the car body look much taller and the area of the bullet is increased on the side." After reading it, Qin Zhenhua expressed his point.
The weapons of the East, inherited the characteristics of the Soviets, always liked to be small and reduced the area of the bombing as much as possible, but the Americans were different.
Especially the M2 infantry fighting vehicle, it is even taller, and this reason has even been criticized for being very tall, so it doesn’t matter if you add a turret.
Our side's side's different. Our 86 infantry fighting vehicle originally had a low body. Now, with such a large turret installed, it always seems inconsistent, and it feels like a big-headed son.
.
"We have tried our best to design this turret in a miniaturized direction, but if you want to stuff two people into it, it can only be so big." Joyce said.
The two-person turret used on the M2 infantry fighting vehicle are two-person turrets, and the turret captain and the turret captain are both inside.
Of course, there are many equipment. In addition to the most important 25mm machine gun and a parallel machine gun installed on the right side of the artillery, there is also an liftable M27 double-barrel "Caucus" anti-tank missile installed on the left side of the turret.
Launch rack.
Therefore, its weapons are quite complete. In addition to using machine guns to deal with targets such as armored vehicles, anti-tank missiles can also be used to directly deal with the enemy's main battle tanks.
This also leads to the tall turret.
After hearing this introduction, Qin Zhenhua frowned and said, "So, can we remove the Tao anti-tank missile and change it to a single-person turret?"
The 25mm machine cannon uses ammunition chains to supply ammunition, so there is no need for a special loader at all. One person is enough. If there is only one person in the turret, it can greatly reduce the size.
In fact, the original Type 86 infantry fighting vehicle, like the BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicle, also carried the imitation Red Arrow 73 anti-tank missile, which was hung on the upper part of the gun barrel, and looked very powerful. In fact, it was in combat.
The performance is not good. The performance of anti-tank missiles such as the Red Arrow 73 is not very good. After being installed, some special fire control systems for anti-tank missiles must be added.
If you have a specialty in your profession, you don’t have to make an infantry combat vehicle large and complete. It only needs a machine gun. In this way, the size of the turret can be reduced in an instant.
Joyce heard Qin Zhenhua’s thoughts, pondered for a moment, and said, “If this is the case, it would be a redesign, in terms of time…”
They also have the same idea. Since they want to do it, they must hurry up. It would be better to catch up with this International Defense Exhibition.
I originally planned to move the turret here, but now, if it is to be modified, it will take more time.
"By the way!" Joyce suddenly remembered: "We have designed a special single-man turret plan in our original design. If we apply this plan, we should be able to catch up. However, you are sure not to have anti-tank missiles.
?”
If it is sold out and there are anti-tank missiles, then it will definitely be able to sell some of the anti-tank missiles, which are all money.
If the other party wants to cut off these, it means that they will make a lot less money.
"Believe me." Qin Zhenhua said: "The characteristic of our weapon system is that it is advanced technology and low cost. If anti-tank missiles are added, the cost will increase in an instant. I am afraid that it will scare away many potential customers. Let's talk about it.
, our potential customers may not be able to operate anti-tank missiles.”
Joyce nodded repeatedly, that's right!
Anti-tank missiles are hundreds of thousands of yuan per one. If you get a few backup missiles, the procurement cost will double, which will go against the original intention.
The goal is to export to some poor countries where education is low and anti-tank missiles may not necessarily be able to operate.
