Great Power Ship

Chapter 269 Zhujiang Factory Can Solve It

The problem is that the head of the Marine Corps knows that he has the abacus, but others don’t know so many small nine-nines. After hearing that the first phase of the SJ-857 series of test bombs is not a single bomb, but a collective name for 4 different caliber tail-stabilized shell-piercing armor-piercing bombs At that time, the heads of these troops were shocked.

It should be known that except for the 90mm fin-stabilized sabot-piercing projectile, which has no matching model in China, the other three fin-stabilized sabot-piercing projectiles have corresponding models.

Especially the 105mm tail-stabilized shell-piercing shell.

You must know that the L7 105mm tank gun imported from the United Kingdom is equipped with not many tail-stabilized shell-piercing shells, and it is less than 50 rounds.

Excluding the test and shooting, the dismantled by the research institute and studied by other institutions, it can be said that there is not a single shot left in the army.

Because of this, more than a dozen improved tanks equipped with L7 105mm tank guns fell into an embarrassing situation with guns and no bullets.

Of course, there are also factors that domestic military product manufacturers have followed the Soviet production system for a long time.

Because of this, although the British L7 105mm tank gun is good, both domestic troops, scientific research units and manufacturers believe that it represents the mainstream direction of the development of tank guns in the world today.

And for this reason, there is a great willingness to imitate the gun, but there has been no progress. The fundamental reason is that the current production system and process are completely different from the British L7 105mm tank gun.

Not to mention anything else, take the most commonly used fixtures and molds in industrial production as an example.

If you want to imitate the L7 105mm tank gun, you can say that there is one tank gun production unit, and all the existing fixtures and molds need to be replaced. The cost alone is not a small amount.

What's more, it's not just fixtures and molds that need to be replaced, but also some high-level smelting equipment, forging equipment, machining equipment, personnel training, and the formulation of process specifications...

It will take about three years to complete even if it is done quickly.

If this was done more than ten years ago, the military teamed up with scientific research units and manufacturers to do it. Although three years is a bit slower, it is worth waiting.

The problem is that today's manufacturers do not have the will, let alone the motivation to do these things.

There is no way, it is really a unified purchase and sales of military products, and it does not make money.

So much so that the manufacturer invests so much and spends so much energy, and in the end they reap a bunch of pennants, a few medals, some advanced and affordable ones, even if some determined people persist, other factory workers may not be willing to do it.

After all, not everyone has such a high level of consciousness. Most ordinary people have to work hard for their livelihoods, and they can’t even fill their own stomachs. How can you let the majority of employees work with you?
This is the simplest and most simple truth.

Otherwise, it is impossible for the country to adjust its policies, insist on reform and opening up, insist on economic construction as the center, and only by governing the country and making the country rich and the people strong can the army be strong.

Because of these difficulties that cannot be solved today, the imitation plan of the L7 105mm tank gun is advancing very slowly, and the inability to mass-produce the L7 105mm tank gun in a short period of time means that the demand for shells of the same caliber has been greatly reduced. It is not cost-effective to produce a small batch of shells for a dozen L7 105mm tank guns used to modify tanks, and to open another one for production.

Therefore, the imported shells of the same caliber that are matched with the L7 105mm tank gun are one round less.

Originally, many army chiefs had given up hope about this matter, but they didn't expect to find a good place in the firepower display of the Marine Corps.

Not only produced 30mm and 85mm fin-stabilized sabot-piercing projectiles, but also produced 105mm fin-stabilized sabot-piercing projectiles.

This is tantamount to good news enough to make them lose sleep for the army chiefs present.

Because this not only solves the ammunition problem of the dozens of imported L7 105mm tank guns, but also avoids the embarrassing situation where the improved tank has guns but no ammunition.

More importantly, through the suggestion of the head of the Marine Corps and the display of the DPZ-030 30mm machine gun just now, these heads of troops have reason to believe that the Zhujiang Shipbuilding Factory that cooperates with the Navy should be capable of producing and manufacturing 105mm tank gun.

This is comparable to the foodie's thirst for delicious food for the army leaders, and they simply cannot resist it!
It should be known that after the improved tank is equipped with the L7 105mm tank gun, the overall combat effectiveness has increased by nearly 60%, especially after using the advanced stabilized tail shell-piercing armor-piercing projectile, its armor-piercing combat capability can penetrate the Soviet Union's 1500 T-72 tank.

The basis of this improved tank is the Type 69 main battle tank that is currently equipped in small batches in China.

The Type 69 main battle tank was improved and upgraded from the Type 59 tank.

In other words, the L7 105mm tank gun can be upgraded to the Type 69 main battle tank, and naturally it is also suitable for the Type 59 tank.

However, the number of Type 59 tanks equipped by the domestic army is as many as several thousand. It only needs to be replaced with one gun to have the strength to match the Soviet T-72 tanks. No matter in terms of cost or time, Troops are paid for.

If you are not tempted by the Type 59 105mm series of improved tanks that are not even magically modified, then these leaders are not worthy of this position.

Looking at the whispering troop chiefs in front of him, the corner of the Marine Corps chief's mouth finally raised a meaningful arc. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, the gray troop chief of the two squads could laugh out loud.

Earlier, the head of the army asked him about the price. The head of the Marine Corps deliberately did not answer directly, but turned around and revealed four types of tail stabilized shell-piercing armor-piercing projectiles.

In turn, the thinking of these flexible heads of troops diverged, and Lenovo's Zhujiang factory was able to develop and produce 105mm tank guns.

After working hard for a long time, he finally got the fish hooked, but he didn't know how much he could negotiate with that bastard Wen Dawei.

Whether you talk about it or not, the Marine Corps has to ask for the lowest internal price!
What?Does the Zhujiang factory have no production plan for 105mm tank guns?

If not, go directly!
Anyway, the Zhujiang factory is now working overtime for the navy to produce DPZ-076 naval guns and DPZ-130 naval guns. The two guns with different calibers use one production line, and the production efficiency is not slow. It can be seen that adding a 105mm tank gun should not be a big problem.

As for the 85mm tank gun...

If there is a 105mm tank gun, the small-caliber 85mm tank gun is really not enough. What's more, although the Type 63 amphibious tank is small, it is not impossible to withstand the explosive power of the 105mm tank gun.

What's more, the Zhujiang factory has long given the Marine Corps an improvement plan for the Type 63 amphibious tank, that is, to increase the buoyancy on the water and a dedicated underwater propulsion system, so that it has more excellent sea performance.

Because of this, when faced with the next inquiries from the heads of the troops in front of him, the head of the Marine Corps can be said to be able to handle it with ease, but to sum it up, it is actually one sentence: "Your problems can be solved by Zhujiang Factory. If you don't believe me, go and have a look with me!"
