Chapter 1378 One Thousand Main Battle Tanks
The words of the gray-haired expert seemed to set the direction, or tone, of the theme of the meeting.When some experts looked at Li Mu, they couldn't help but think that the deputy director was young after all and could easily lead people to the direction of the meeting.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Deputy Director Li prefers the M-10 tank, otherwise he would not hold any on-site meeting.

The conference room was silent for a while.

Li Mu did not express any opinions on the white-haired expert, but glanced at it and said, "Comrades, please express your opinions enthusiastically."

A middle-aged man wearing glasses coughed and then said, "The Red Star Factory's demonstration was indeed shocking. After the shock, we still have to return to reality. Which model of tank will the army choose as a replacement for the active main battle tank? , what needs to be considered is the overall performance. I think the demonstration of the M-10 tank proved its reliability. I can’t say that it greatly surpasses the M-11 of Yanguo No. [-] Machinery Factory, but it is definitely the winner. I think this No one will have any objections.”

He also paused, and then continued, "In terms of comprehensive combat performance, I believe that the M-10 tank still wins. My opinion is still about the price. The unit price is 3000 million, 3000 million, not 300 million or 30. I don't Knowing how many vehicles the army will eventually equip, haha, maybe Deputy Director Li has the answer to this question."

It turns out that he is an official of the Appropriations Committee, and what he values ​​​​is of course money.

He adjusted his glasses, glanced around, and said, "Be conservative. Based on the equipment of one thousand vehicles, how much is 3000 million? 300 billion, [-] billion, comrades."

Needless to say, everyone knows what kind of number this is.

An official from the Equipment R&D Procurement Committee couldn't help but retort, saying, "This is a theoretical algorithm. After the production volume increases, the cost will be greatly reduced. On average, the unit price of the M-10 will definitely not be higher than that of the M-11 tank." Offer 3000 million."

He supports the M-10 tank. Even if his new immediate boss is not here, he still has to say so and stick to his opinion based on his own analysis.

The appropriation committee official smiled and said, "I don't know if you have carefully read the data given by the Red Star Factory. Their unit price is officially based on the mass production of one thousand units. If the final output Any less than that number and the unit price will be higher.”

One thousand units, this quantity almost meets the army's requirements.The Army's replacement of main battle tanks follows certain rules. The old and new models have always been in service at the same time. Therefore, each update only replaces part of the tank, rather than replacing all of it.

For example, after the mass production of Type 99 came out, it replaced the Type 88 or Type 96 of the main field forces. The models eliminated by these units will be equipped to non-main field forces to replace the older Type 88.In this way, the pattern of high and low matching of Type 99 and Type 96 is formed.

However, some mountain troops and jungle troops that use light tanks due to the limitations of the terrain are not included in this list.For those troops, our country's military industrial enterprises even developed new light tanks specifically for them.

Therefore, the equipment quantity of one thousand vehicles can even be said to be wealthy.

Three hundred billion is undoubtedly a number that no one can decide. Therefore, Han Weihua knows very well that if the cost is not reduced, the M-10 will undoubtedly lose.The demonstration done today was just to win the favor of the new deputy director and give the M-10 a chance to survive.

The initial R&D expenses allocated by the military were not enough at all. The funding for the two factories was the same. However, the Red Star Factory invested more than one billion R&D funds out of its own pocket, so that the M-10 could be produced according to the time requirements.

If it cannot win orders from the military, Red Star No. [-] Machinery Factory will lose billions.For the wealthy Red Star Defense Group, more than one billion is just a drop in the bucket, and the other significance contained in this order is far more important than the economic significance. This shows that the main battle tank developed by the Red Star Defense Group has won the favor of the world's most powerful country. Army Approval.

Even if Han Weihua loses money, he still wants to win this order, but obviously he cannot lose too much. This is related to the entire Red Star First Machinery Factory and his personal interests.

Don't forget, even if the quotation of the M-10 from the Red Star Factory is the same as the current quotation of the M-11, it may not necessarily win - Yanguo's No. [-] Machinery Factory can also reduce the price, and its profit margins are sufficient!

Li Mu knocked on the table and said, "Director Han has told me in person that they will work hard to reduce costs. Before they give the final quotation, let's not consider the price factor for the time being."

The appropriation committee official smiled and said, "Deputy Director Li, our appropriation committee only cares about money. If you don't let us consider money, then we have no other opinions."

Li Mu waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's up to you."

As soon as this was said, everyone was a little stunned. It was so rude.The officials of the Appropriation Committee looked even more ugly, as if they wanted to say something but couldn't say it, and they wanted to hold it in.

Li Mu took a glance and said, "I am from old Lu, and I spent most of my time in the army. I think I am qualified to say that I know exactly what kind of tank the army wants. We people Sitting here, shouldering different tasks, the ultimate goal is to let the troops use worry-free, cost-effective new tanks with technical advantages. Do you all agree on this point?"

"nature."

"Of course, Deputy Director Li, this is what we do."

"So we have to strictly control the last level."

……

Everyone expressed their opinions.

Li Mu could almost tell that most of these people supported the old-school military industry represented by Yanguo's First Machinery Factory.This is easy to understand. Several generations of tanks used by the army were all developed by Yanguo No. [-] Machinery Factory. They have more experience, and the army also has more experience in using their products.

Such an advantage cannot be matched even by Red Star No. [-] Machinery Factory.

"I'll say a few words."

Li Mu said, "In addition to protection, the M-10 is far superior to the M-11 in the other two major technical indicators of the main battle tank. In terms of comprehensive technological leadership, the M-10 and the active main battle tank have There is an obvious era gap in battle tanks, and the M-11 is basically based on the main battle tanks currently in service with deep improvements."

"I am a commanding officer. Among our army, I probably have the most experience in front-line combat and front-line combat command. When we choose equipment for our troops, we must keep close to the current battlefield environment and combat styles. Weapons The development of equipment and combat styles influence each other. The experience we have gained from the use of active main battle tanks is that it is necessary to strengthen the main battle tanks' night combat capabilities and urban terrain combat capabilities."

"Specifically speaking, in terms of anti-air defense capabilities, both models of tanks are at the same level. But at night, especially in night urban operations, I carefully looked at the previous test data of the two models of tanks and made a comprehensive comparison. In the future, the M-10 tank will be able to better meet the Army's future combat requirements."

Li Mu stopped and glanced at it, and said, "You may all be wondering whether I have anything to do with the Red Star Factory, or whether the Red Star Factory has followed my path, so I speak for the Red Star Factory. I can tell you that before today , I have no interaction with the Red Star Factory. What I still want to emphasize is that I hope you can make an evaluation based on the comprehensive performance of the two models. Of course, as I said just now, I will temporarily put aside the price factor. .”

Everyone looked at each other, thinking secretly in their hearts: You say you are not biased towards Red Star Factory, but you, the old man, are always speaking for Red Star Factory.

D: I made the brothers unhappy last month. I have been working hard to save some articles these days. It will explode in a few days, and the brothers will pay me the guaranteed monthly tickets.Also, this will be the preliminary stage for the next climax, so don’t worry, the hunter still has to write.Once again, we are advertising the new book "Struggle 1981" and hope that brothers will vote for the new book.plum.
