Military industrial hegemony

Chapter 313 The industrial upgrade that caused Jiang Chen a headache
As for the third model, it is Jiang Chen's newly developed 12.7mm large-caliber anti-material sniper rifle. Although this gun has just been developed.However, since Jiang Chen's performance years ago, personnel from several theaters came to the factory after the year, ordering a batch for trial use.Especially in those theaters that are about to rush to southern Xinjiang or are currently in the southern Xinjiang round of battle, they are even more anxious to order a batch to be put on the battlefield.Of course, Jiang Chen and the others also gave priority to production, and it was their own responsibility to do so.After all, it is the obligation of every military industrial unit and every military worker to provide advanced weapons and equipment for every soldier participating in the war.The second is a kind of test. War is the best test platform for weapons and equipment. Jiang Chen will naturally not miss this opportunity.For this reason, Jiang Chen also sent a technical team to the southern border, just to collect first-hand information in a timely manner.

Of course, this gun is not considered standard equipment, because it has not yet passed the installation test.But Jiang Chen and the others are confident that there will be no problem with the installation test.Now Jiang Chen and the others have to consider how to promote Jiang's gun abroad. The current plan is to participate in a foreign police equipment competition held in May.Of course, Jiang Chen didn't have to worry about this point, there was a dedicated person to deal with it, and Jiang Chen didn't want to spend all his time on it.Moreover, Jiang Chen recognized Qian Caizhe's work ability in this respect, so he decided not to intervene.

The next thing is to talk about these two rocket launchers. There is nothing to say about this for the time being. Except for the orders needed by our own army, the demand for such orders abroad is far less than that for firearms.So let's keep the production scale and speed and keep the workshop running.However, Jiang Chen and the others learned through internal information that the headquarters intends to replace the old "Four Zero Fire" with a new type of rocket launcher, and it has begun to be installed in the entire army.However, in Jiang Chen's view, if they want to install it on a large scale, it is estimated that it will be after the major disarmament, and it will not play a big role at present.

Now the scientific research team that previously developed the rocket launcher has transferred to the development of new weapons and equipment, which are the individual portable air defense missiles and anti-tank missiles that were previously said.Now they are engaged in the research of controllable projectiles, and have achieved phased results.The first prototype of the anti-tank missile has been developed and is now undergoing final check tests.After the preparatory work is completed, the live ammunition shooting experiment will be carried out.In fact, Jiang Chen has a headache about this point, why, that is, the target of the missile is not so easy to get.The first is the targets for the anti-tank missiles. In addition to self-made targets, Jiang Chen and the others collected some real tanks from everywhere. For this reason, Jiang Chen and the others did not hesitate to find someone.There is also this anti-aircraft missile target. Jiang Chen and the others also inspected several training target drones for flying troops. Except for one or two target drones, the others did not meet Jiang Chen's needs.For this reason, Jiang Chen specially ordered several target drones to be used for experiments.However, these are still under intense production. According to their reports, it is guaranteed that the planned live ammunition experiments will not be affected.

In terms of team weapons, that is, the rifle series, it should be said that Jiang Chen is most satisfied with the part.This firearms research and development laboratory is becoming more and more mature.I don't know if there is a female leader, but the number of female members in this laboratory has gradually increased, and they are doing a good job.Jiang Chen now finally knows what is the most vicious woman. It turns out that women have more advantages than men in researching lethal weapons.What I want to say here is that the new small-caliber assault rifle that Jiang Chen and the others cooperated with Shancheng B46 factory has already achieved results. That is, the researchers of the firearms research and development laboratory here have successfully developed it under the ideas suggested by Jiang Chen. A small caliber bullpup assault rifle.It is very similar to the Type 95 rifle we equipped later, but there are also differences.For example, Jiang Chen removed the handle on the most controversial gun in later generations and changed it to a guide rail to facilitate the installation of various auxiliary equipment.For example, this time, Jiang Chen and the others conducted in-depth research on the materials used in firearms, and have experimented with more than a dozen different materials. They have achieved some results temporarily, but they are still not ideal.We have always been short on materials, especially industrial plastics.This is not something that Jiang Chen and the others can change, so let's develop and improve slowly.

Another aspect is the grenade launcher, which was established years ago and is now under development.Jiang Chen has also pointed out several directions for them, one is a light grenade launcher that is portable for individual soldiers, and it is used for squad and small teams.One is a heavy-duty grenade launcher that uses fire suppression to fight, that is, an automatic grenade launcher.This launcher can be used for front-line ear and platoon fire support operations, and it can also be equipped with vehicles and used as a vehicle-mounted weapon.Of course, this is also specially developed as a supporting project for the company's automobile factory to enter the military vehicle market.The third is the precision grenade launcher, which is what we commonly call 'sniper guns'.Jiang Chen was very fond of this weapon in later generations, and he was a little excited when he thought of it being created in his own hands.

This is the specific situation of the factory's production so far.Although in everyone's opinion, the factory has achieved great results.But in Jiang Chen's view, the B17 factory still has a long way to go.If you don't think about making progress and stagnate, then the development of the factory will be like this.But this still has to be done step by step, otherwise the steps are too big and it is easy to get crotch.At present, the automobile factory under construction on the company's side, as well as this individual portable missile are the driving forces for the future development of the factory.There is also a very good direction for electronic components and micro-integrated circuits.It can be said that this is a leap stage for the factory to see if it can develop from a single industry to a comprehensive and diverse industry.Jiang Chen felt a headache when he thought of this, which made him somewhat powerless.But let’s just leave it at that, there is no good way except to continue to develop silently.

The meeting ended with bursts of applause. From the beginning to the end, Jiang Chen sat and listened in silence without speaking.This made everyone very puzzled. They were all thinking what happened to Jiang Chen today. This is not like him. They thought something happened to him.Several leaders inquired after the meeting. Jiang Chen smiled and said that there was nothing wrong, he just felt very good, and there was no need for him to speak.Under the concern of everyone, Jiang Chen bid farewell to everyone and walked to his own site technology research and development center.
