In the past, the caliber selection has been used for nearly ten years, but now, the 6.8 mm bullet proposed by Qin Guan has only been used for half a day, and the test firing continues. After completing the identification under various circumstances, many experts are full of praise for this bullet. Compared with the 7.62 mm bullet, it should be lighter and easy to carry. However, in terms of power, it is much higher than the 5.56 mm bullet.

"It seems that in this way, we can comprehensively study this 6.8mm gun." the old expert said: "in addition to our most commonly used automatic rifle, we also need to develop a general-purpose machine gun of this caliber, so that we can unify the caliber in the whole infantry squad and reduce the burden of ammunition supply."

This statement made Qin Guan shake his head quickly: "it's impossible. It's absolutely impossible. For the infantry class, this small caliber is only suitable for assault rifles. The class machine gun of the infantry class must be a 7.62mm general-purpose machine gun."

Qin Guan had just corrected it. The small caliber rifle was a big pit. The unsupported pit had not been completely corrected. It was about to fall into another big pit.

This big hole is the equally popular theory of the uselessness of medium caliber rifles.

In this era, the transformation trend of mechanized and armored forces in the world army has obviously accelerated, and many Western forces have begun to equip infantry combat vehicles, which is also the reason why Jiguo wants to engage in supportless rifles.

The medium caliber general-purpose machine gun is in a dilemma. If it is used as vehicle mounted firepower, the 12.7mm machine gun with short range, small caliber and vehicle mounted is the most suitable. If people use it, it's a little heavy. Moreover, the infantry squad starts to use small caliber guns. Isn't it very appropriate for the infantry squad to use small caliber machine guns?

In this way, the useless theory of medium caliber general-purpose machine gun in the world rises, and small caliber general-purpose machine gun has become the darling of the army of major powers. Medium caliber general-purpose machine gun is in trouble and has a great tendency to die out.

For example, the eagle country was the first country to develop a 5.56 mm small caliber rifle. They also developed an M249 5.56 mm small caliber light machine gun as a fire support weapon for the infantry squad. However, the warheads of the two bullets are also different.

On the battlefield of later generations, after inspection, it is found that it is not appropriate. The small caliber machine gun has insufficient Long-distance Firepower suppression ability and insufficient penetration in short-range urban operations. In this way, it is this small caliber machine gun that is truly different.

Medium caliber machine gun is still the most suitable weapon for medium-range infantry fire support weapons. Later, the eagle country soon adjusted their equipment and began to use M60 medium caliber general-purpose machine gun in large quantities.

What about China?

Later generations developed a Type 95 rifle, followed by a 5.8mm general-purpose machine gun, which is known as the lightest general-purpose machine gun in the world. The total weight of the light machine gun is 7.6kg, and that of the general machine gun is only 11.8kg.

As for the effect, just look at the amount of equipment. After more than ten years of service, the total output is less than 20000. Practice is the only standard to test the truth. The fact gives a hard slap to the useless theorists of medium caliber machine guns.

The performance is mediocre, the power is too small, the high is not high, the low is not low, and the status is embarrassing.

Now, of course, we can't go this old way.

Qin Guan looked at the old expert and said, "what is a general-purpose machine gun?"

General purpose machine guns, not to be used with automatic rifles!

Its professional definition is a medium-sized machine gun that can be carried by a single person, designed with air cooling, supplied with ammunition chain, can quickly change the barrel, is attached with a bipod, and can also be installed on a tripod or vehicle.

This is just a definition. To put it simply, since it is universal, it should be suitable for most combat environments. For example, if you put on a tripod and replace it with a thick barrel, it can be used as a heavy machine gun.

If you put up a bipod or even lift it directly without a support, you can fire and run while fighting. In this way, it is suitable for infantry to the greatest extent. This is a general-purpose machine gun.

Do you have a small caliber, which can be called a general-purpose machine gun? It can only be a light machine gun.

"If you use a small caliber, yes, it's light, but its range and power can provide fire support for infantry?" Qin Guan asked, "besides, if the caliber is unified, can the bullets be the same? If the bullets are exactly the same, can they extend the range and fill the fire gap?"

"Besides, in the infantry squad, there must be a more powerful weapon. The bulletproof vests we see now are not the final form. More advanced bulletproof vests can't even shoot through our 6.8mm bullets. Or, on the battlefield, the target may be stuffed with two bulletproof inserts."

Some people really do this. Although they want to increase the weight, which is more important in the choice of life protection and weight increase? "Two?" the scholar tutted aside. "That's a good idea. I like it. In this case, ordinary 7.62mm bullets may not be able to penetrate. They must have special kinds of bullets."

"The squad machine gun of the infantry squad must have strong firepower and long range, enough to suppress firepower within 1000 meters." Qin Guan said: "We should use machine guns like the PKM squad in Xiong Guo. Therefore, I suggest that we continue to use 7.62x54mm machine gun bullets, so that our infantry squad can have a chance to kill the enemy with two bulletproof inserts in the future battlefield."

Now, it's the best way for Qin Guan to talk about things with a bulletproof plug board. After all, now everyone clearly sees that this thing is a kind of protective equipment that can change the battlefield situation in the future.

"If we don't have the energy to develop it now, our type 81 class machine gun is a good choice, but we need to modify it. We can't use our 39mm bullet, but use our 54mm machine gun bullet." Qin Guan continued.

The type 81 gun family was originally intended to be a transitional gun family. In the future, it must be a small caliber world. But now, with Qin Guan's correction, it has been set to 6.8mm, which has increased a lot. As for the machine gun, Qin Guan also prefers the type 81 squad machine gun. This machine gun has fierce firepower and is deeply loved by the army.

Needless to say, at least now, this machine gun has been exported to yezao country on a large scale, which shows its reliability in the yellow sand battlefield of yezao country.

The range of this machine gun is 600 meters, because it uses intermediate power rifle ammunition. If full power ammunition is used, the firepower will be completely satisfied.

Even if the 81 class is replaced by a machine gun, it is better than that chicken rib small caliber rifle! Look at later generations, when the Han Navy dealt with pirates, it took out the type 81 squad machine gun.

In this way, even if the future weapons are determined, the assault rifle: 6.8x43 mm, the general machine gun: 7.62x54 mm, and the heavy machine gun must be 12.7 mm. The future firepower of the Han army will be the most ferocious among all countries.
