Great warships

Chapter 114 Not enough precision
According to Qin Tao's plan, an imitation version of the AK630 naval gun is to be installed in front of this catamaran missile boat. Now, the hull has been completely built, the engine has been installed and debugged, and various radar missile equipment is being installed.

At such a critical moment, something went wrong with the imitation of the naval gun?
Of course, there are alternatives, such as the most common dual-mounted 37mm anti-aircraft guns in the Navy.

The anti-aircraft guns of naval warships were originally open-topped, controlled manually, and the interception effect can be imagined. Later, they began to imitate the Soviet-made AK230 double-barreled naval gun. It took 18 years and was finally finalized in the late 70s. It was named Type 76 Double 37 mm naval gun, the whole gun weighs 5 tons, has a radar, commander and electrical servo system, and later improved the fully enclosed and remote-controlled 76A dual 37mm naval gun. The 052 destroyer currently in production uses this kind of thing .

The rate of fire of this dual-mounted 37mm gun is too low to intercept modern anti-ship missiles at all. Even if it is installed, it is just better than nothing, serving as the last consolation.

If you want to truly achieve short-range defense, you have to use multi-barreled Gatling guns with a rate of fire of several thousand rounds per minute to meet the requirements of the last interception line.

Therefore, the Navy is also full of expectations for the AK630 naval gun that Qin Tao got.

6 means that there are six launch tubes, 30 means that the caliber is 30mm, and the six-tube 30mm cannon rotates and fires. It is bound to be able to project a large number of shells in the shortest time, forming a dense barrage to meet the needs of intercepting anti-ship missiles.

On the bow of the stealth catamaran missile boat, squatting such a cannon is also full of power.Qin Tao was still waiting eagerly. Who would have thought that what he got was such news.

Imitation encountered technical problems?
AK630 kind of stuff, it is said that there should be no problems!After all, this kind of equipment is characterized by a simple structure and no high-tech equipment. It is just a product of Lao Maozi six in the 70s. With the level of domestic cottages, what problems can there be?
"What's the technical problem?" Qin Tao asked.

"I'm not too sure about this," Liu Shenggen said.

The inspection of the missile launching tubes was completed quickly. After the military representative signed, the eight launching tubes were hoisted into the tail of the missile boat. The reserved space was just right, and the launching tubes for the No. In the warehouse.

By the evening, the installation will come to an end.

Shipyard canteen.

"The supporting radar and other electronic equipment will also be delivered in the near future." Liu Shenggen said: "I guarantee that your assembly work will not be delayed. Although what is produced here is only an ordinary missile boat, the navy attaches great importance to it. All materials will be dispatched in a timely manner.”

"We are also confident to complete the production of this missile boat as soon as possible." Qin Tao raised his glass: "Brother, come, let me toast you."

"There is a rule in our courtyard that you can't be too extravagant when you go to a brother's unit. We can only drink one glass of this wine, so take your time." Liu Shenggen said.

"All these equipments can be put in place in time. It's just the naval gun issue. If the progress is delayed, it will be troublesome. We can't get a counterweight to replace it temporarily." Qin Tao brought up this issue again.

In the production of warships, if some naval guns are not in place, there are indeed examples of temporarily replacing them with counterweights. Especially in the era of battleships, when they are driven out of the production plant for sea trials, they may be cement turrets.

But in modern times, it would be child's play to do so.

"Why don't we go over and have a look?" Zhao Ling said, "Maybe we can help them solve their problems?"

"This..." Qin Tao hesitated.

"Other radar equipment is coming in one after another. We haven't installed any projects for a few days, so we can just take advantage of this gap and go to see the naval guns. Others may not be able to solve it, but Qin Gong is the best at creating miracles." Zhao Ling turned to look at Meng Fansheng: "Team leader, what do you think?"

Meng Fansheng nodded: "We can't let this project delay our progress, Zhao Ling, you will go there with Mr. Qin tomorrow, and I'll give you three days. After dinner, I'll write a letter of introduction for you guys."

"Yes." Zhao Ling nodded.

713.

This research institute is mainly responsible for the research and development of naval guns. Almost all kinds of naval guns of the navy are produced from this research institute, such as 37mm naval guns, 57mm naval guns, 76mm naval guns, and 100mm naval guns. In the future, it will imitate the modern-class 130mm naval gun.

Since they have been deeply involved in the field of naval guns for many years, the imitation work of the AK630 naval gun was naturally handed over to them. They are very dedicated, and up to now, they have copied this naval gun.

A multi-barreled cannon like a mushroom head stood on the shooting range of the research institute, and a group of people wandered around this naval cannon.

If you only look at the turret on the top, you can find that it is very small and even a little cute. When it is installed on a warship, it only reveals a small turret like a mushroom head, but in fact, under it, there is still a small turret. There is a huge bomb feeding device, the volume of the lower part is many times that of the upper part, and it is estimated that an extra-large oil drum is required to wrap the things under it.

"Every time I shoot, the accuracy is terribly low. What's going on?" An old man with white hair looked at the bullet holes on the target paper he brought over, frowning.

Their imitation was very easy, but when they were tested on the shooting range, they encountered big problems.

Obviously it is only a short-range gun with a range of a few kilometers, but the accuracy of the shells fired is ridiculously poor, even the old 57mm naval gun can't compare!

The accuracy is too low, how to finalize the delivery to the army?Can't meet the requirements at all!
They are a headache.

"Xia Gong, I'm wondering if the old Maozi's cannon is not very accurate? It's a pity that we only have one cannon, which has been disassembled for surveying and mapping and imitated. There is no way to test the shooting accuracy of the original AK630." Said the technician on the side .

"Yes, if the original accuracy is not high, then our gun, even if the imitation is successful, can be handed over to the army." Another technician said.

"Don't complain!" Xia Bei, the engineer in charge of surveying and imitating this gun, said, "Even if the accuracy of Lao Maozi's AK630 gun is not high, we must work hard to improve its accuracy. Provide weapons to the Navy, otherwise it is a crime!"

Everyone stopped talking.

Xia Bei continued: "If we can't improve its accuracy to a satisfactory level, then what's the point of our surveying and mapping imitation? Just give it to our brothers!"

"Of course not. We are naval gun builders. If we lose to an aircraft gun builder, then we would be too ashamed!" The technician immediately summoned up his fighting spirit.

Absolutely can't lose!
"Yeah, everyone use your brains to figure out what's wrong." Xia Bei continued.

"How about putting on airs?" At this moment, a voice came from behind.
