The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 524 Return to Peace
There is another important reason that forced the United States to abandon its actions in Libya, and that is that the suppressed Middle East war has burned again!

The Israeli army was ambushed by guerrillas and a patrol team of 20 people was wiped out.

The tank and armored vehicle were directly penetrated by the shoulder-fired anti-tank missile.

In retaliation, the Israeli army attacked a guerrilla stronghold and killed hundreds of guerrillas there.

The Israeli military made a big propaganda move, not a very tough speech.

As a result, the two sides fought.

Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria and Palestine have all taken action.

The Israeli army started fighting on five fronts.

For Israel, which is only the size of a palm, the dire situation of being surrounded by enemies is very obvious.

The Israeli Air Force, which has air superiority, had many planes shot down just after taking off!
The missile positions deployed by Syria in the Bekaa Valley have become a nightmare for the Israeli Air Force.

Israel, which is the size of a palm, has suffered a great loss in this regard, as its small territory has no depth.

The air base is directly within the range of the opponent's air defense missiles.

What made the Israeli army even more collapsed was that the guerrillas got so many gas tanks from nowhere and directly used them as artillery shells.

In just one day, Israel asked his son for help.

Under such circumstances, no matter how unwilling the United States is, it has to choose to compromise.

It was necessary to establish a balance with the Soviet Union in Europe so that the Soviet Union would not dare to start a war easily, and it was also necessary to expend enormous energy and thought to run around and coordinate among the Middle Eastern countries to quell the war in the Middle East.

If this continues, the international crude oil price will reach US$60 per barrel!

Finally, the fighting between the various parties gradually subsided.

Even in the South Asian subcontinent, the war temporarily subsided.

Because high temperatures are sweeping across South Asia, it is no longer suitable for fighting at this time. The heat can kill people, let alone fighting.

Every year, high temperatures kill hundreds or even thousands of people in South Asia. If there is another war, the number of deaths will be even higher.

As the situation gradually eased, oil prices also fell rapidly.

It first broke through the high of $50 per barrel, then quickly broke through the high of $40 per barrel, and then reached $35 per barrel and could not fall any further. The international crude oil price fluctuated around $35 per barrel.

At this point, it is the supply and demand of oil that determines the outcome.

The United States needs to replenish a large amount of its oil reserves, and its own oil consumption is high. The supply and demand in the market are there, so it is difficult to lower the price.

Just as the world situation was easing, Liu Tao was at the headquarters of Panshan Group.

In front of Liu Tao were tanks and armored vehicles.

80式主战坦克、81式中型坦克、81式轻型坦克、81式水陆两用坦克、81式履带步兵战车、81式轮式步兵战车、81式履带式120毫米自行迫榴炮、81式轮式120毫米自行迫榴炮、81式履带式122毫米火箭弹、81式轮式122毫米火箭弹、81式履带式反坦克导弹发射车、81式轮式反坦克导弹发射车、81式履带式122毫米自行榴弹炮、81式轮式122毫米自行榴弹炮、82式履带式120毫米自行迫击炮、82式轮式120毫米自行迫击炮、‘神盾’防空导弹、‘鹰击’反舰导弹.
Up to now, the output of weapons and ammunition produced by Southwest Ordnance Industry Group Corporation every month has reached an astonishing level.

Liu Tao was in a good mood as he saw that there were no more red dots in the item upgrade system that he had scanned.

After years of hard work, the weapons and equipment produced by various military factories under the Southwest Ordnance Industry Group Corporation have finally qualified when they reach him.

The meaning here is very important.

It not only represents that Panshan Group’s own quality inspection system is complete and professional, but also has strong power in quality inspection.

It also represents the improvement of production quality of Panshan Group and its supporting factories, and the improvement of the skill level of production workers.

It also represents the improvement of the upstream and downstream industrial system formed with Panshan Group as the core. Compared with 1979, it has risen by at least three or four levels.

"From now on, I won't have to spend time on these weapons and ammunition!" Liu Tao was very happy and felt extremely relieved.

In recent years, Liu Tao has made great efforts in quality control.

In order to make money, he often used his golden finger to repair the defects of unqualified weapons and ammunition, so that they could become qualified.

But this also took up a lot of his time, leaving him with no time to do research.

Now, up to now, it can be said that the weapons produced now are mature.

It's not just about mass production, but also about qualified products, so he doesn't need to spend any more time thinking about it.

He only needs to conduct random inspections occasionally once a year and hang a sword over the heads of the quality inspection department, so that the quality inspection department and the production department will not dare to be careless about production quality.

With the extra time, he can do more things.

"From now on, these weapons and ammunition will no longer need to be sent to the group headquarters for my final quality inspection. Your quality inspection department can complete the final inspection!" Liu Tao said.

When the people in the quality inspection department heard Liu Tao's words, they all showed expressions of ecstasy.

As the department responsible for the production quality of the entire group, the quality inspection department has great power, but also great responsibilities.

Once there are problems with production quality, the board will be reported to the quality inspection department first.

The department that is least favored by production workers and supporting factories is the quality inspection department.

Over the years, countless fathers and sons, brothers, sisters, and couples have quarreled or even fought because of production quality issues.

The quality inspection department is also the one that has the most bonuses and allowances deducted!

Now, all the hard work has paid off. The weapons and equipment being produced no longer need Liu Tao to conduct the final quality inspection.

This is the fruitful result of the quality inspection department's efforts since 1979 and the rigorous attitude and meticulous work style of countless quality inspectors.

Although the quality inspection department is directly under the group and is not subject to the jurisdiction of the subordinate group companies, it also has an exclusive office at the Panshan Group headquarters. However, except for a few staff members, most of the people in the quality inspection department are in various factories to strictly control the quality!

Liu Tao looked at the excitement of the quality inspectors and smiled.

Liu Tao has seen the efforts of the quality inspection department.

This year, when selecting outstanding individuals and advanced groups, we can give priority to quality inspection departments.

To be honest, Liu Tao has put a lot of effort into the technicality and professionalism of the entire group.

Try to prevent outsiders from leading insiders as much as possible.

For example, the person in charge of the quality inspection department is very good at controlling and inspecting production quality.

We also have someone in charge of technology, Chief Engineer Zhu Yusheng, so technical aspects are not a problem at all.

Just like in the past few years, Zhu Yusheng and others have been working hard to improve the Type 59 main battle tank. It's amazing that they have figured out a magical modification plan for the Type 59 main battle tank.

The modified Type 59 tank has reached the level of the second and a half generation, with greatly improved performance.

Although it is still far inferior to the Type 80 main battle tank, the modified Type 59 main battle tank can be sold at a higher price.

Currently, the First and Second Machine Plants are modifying the Type 59 main battle tanks currently in service in the army, so as to improve the performance of the Type 59 main battle tanks.

The modified Type 59 main battle tank is called the Type 59 modified main battle tank.
