Three days passed slowly as many stressful work such as equipment testing, which were increasingly intense for many staff members, Long Yaohua, who was in charge of this aspect, arrived at the base, and Li Yunlong, the Minister of Logistics, came here in person.

Even Pakistan's Defense Minister Mohamed Haliak and their chief tank expert Mohamed Taka Aix arrived before the final assembly of the Dragon Guard type was completed and walked off the assembly line.

They want to witness this historic moment.

This day is an important day that can be fully written into the history of military industry development between China and Pakistan. The new third-generation medium-sized main battle tank jointly developed by China and Pakistan is about to go offline. All parts are 100% made in China! For Pakistan, although they only paid for the money, and the main key components such as engines, tank guns, gun aiming systems, and artillery systems can be manufactured in their military factories in the future, which is not a problem at all.

Anyway, they can produce independently. Unless the relationship with China becomes stiff, they will not be stucked by the Chinese.

It’s not that the Chinese are unwilling to give them the ability to manufacture themselves, but that they find that the cost of building production lines within their engines and cultivating technicians and technical workers is too high.

"Xiao Liu, isn't the paint of this tank a bit ugly? Other people's tanks are all painted with toads. Why did you turn yellow? Isn't this thing easily discovered?" Li Yunlong was not too concerned about the performance of the tank. This was made by his son-in-law. How could it be worse?

The new tanks at the 617 tank base have not been designed and finalized yet. The 541 has not made any noise until now. They have spent a lot of money.

This is not his partiality, but base 617 and base 541. After Longya got the Russian T72 from the southwest battlefield, each company had a share. The project basically started from that time. After Yang Wei's team stole the T64 from the Soviet Far East War Zone, they also got the prototype. The technical strength of the two tank bases is much stronger than that of the Ninth Academy, which was originally just a technical backup and rarely had any research capabilities. As a result, the project progress of the two units has not even been completed, and the samples of the Ninth Academy have been offline.

"Minister Li, this is a desert camouflage coating that we specially developed. These tanks use this camouflage coating solution in areas where there are very little preparations and coverage, which is much better than green. Of course, it is not just a kind of coating." Liu Yijiu wanted to tell Li Yunlong the truth, but in the end he would forget it.

First, the Chinese tanks in the Republic are so ugly.

Second, these tank republics will be equipped by themselves, but the amount of equipment will definitely not be much better. The main customers of these tanks they need to produce are the two countries in the Middle East that are preparing to fight. They are both surnamed Yi, and their countries are all desert terrain. This kind of painting is much better than military green.

These things cannot be told to these big guys from the beginning. Otherwise, even if the Middle East rich people come to the morning, they may not be able to sell them.

Liu Yijiu was still considering whether to give the Pakistani tips to the Pakistani people, asking them to take the initiative to communicate with Iran and sell the tanks to the Iranians first. By the time of the Iran-Iraq War, they would invest more than 85 million US dollars of tanks themselves to earn their investment back as soon as possible.

On this, Liu Yijiu cheated the Pakistanis, and all the funds were provided by the Pakistanis, and they themselves made a lot of money on it. After all, too many experiments were saved.

"Old Li, is the effect good? This can only be determined after being tested!" Long Yaohua hates Li Yunlong's behavior that shows off his son-in-law at every turn, and then boasts about how good he has his vision. He snatched Ai from the Situ family with his sword and snatched this son-in-law away from the Situ family.

As Long Yaohua guessed, even if no one talked, he started himself, "It's very good, young people, with innovative spirit, knowing that different camouflage coatings are designed according to different environments, so that our tanks can have stronger survival ability. Good, very good..." After the praise, he began to become narcissistic, "But it's thanks to me. If I hadn't supported you to autonomy at the beginning, we wouldn't have seen such things, Lao Long, did you think it's..."

Long Yaohua cursed shamelessly, turned his head and looked like I didn't know him, while the others could only keep praising the leader's wisdom.

No one cares about how much performance parameters of this tank can reach. For those who don’t know the inside story of this tank, this tank probably has to be like Type 69, because the various technical performances are too far from the third-generation tanks abroad, and there is no fundamental breakthrough. In the end, it can only become a bunch of drawings to accumulate experience for domestic researchers.

"Yu Ming, Shu Hao, what do you think of this tank?" Long Yaohua was very upset when he saw that Li Yunlong's old guy shamelessly bragging him more and more. If he had such shamelessness as him, he would have a wife who was as beautiful as a flower, and gave birth to a beautiful daughter. Liu Yijiu might be his son-in-law, so how could he be proud of him!

If he had a private occasion, he would have said directly that the daughter of the Situ family would be around Liu Yijiu, which would have been able to shut up Li Yunlong.

But now it doesn't work, there are too many people here who can't access these things.

Li Yuming, the head of the 617 tank base; Chen Shuhao, the head of the 541 tank base; these two people had no intersection with this unit they had never known and had not even heard of, but this time they were called here to let the other party crush their hearts with a new generation of medium-sized tanks with newly produced five pairs of heavy-wheeled wheels.

From the beginning, they were different from others, and they showed a lot of loneliness on their faces.

"Chief, if we have so much funding from them, we can make it quickly! The annual allocation of the entire base is only a little, and everyone has to support it..." Li Yuming took a deep breath before looking at the two tanks that had climbed to the top of the tank, which opened the hatch and said to Long Yaohua. "Although the appearance has changed a lot, who knows what it is inside?"

Chen Shuhao didn't say anything, the fate of the 541 base was destined. The above orders made many workshops and branches begin to transform, and the first batch of military-to-civilian units have begun to produce civilian products.

They will not engage in tanks in the future, so there will naturally be no conflicts.

He was naturally happy to see if he could have a new advanced tank.

Only those who do military industry know what the country's military industry are.

Jiang Ming was immediately furious when he heard this. When these guys came to their place to ask for technical support and assistance, they all seemed to be 20,000 or 80,000 yuan, but now they are still shameless and say that if they have so much money from their place, they can do it.

"Director Li, are you sure you can use the same amount of funds and the same amount of time to design and produce new tanks with the same performance as us? Do you think these tanks have just changed their appearance design and nothing else is useless?" He immediately asked Li Yuming in a cold voice.

Li Yunlong no longer boasted about how he discovered Liu Yijiu's talent, and gave the entire Ninth Academy base a different treatment from other scientific research institutions.

"What's the big deal about this? The foundations in China are like that. How much advanced can you be than us? Electronics support is not good, materials are not good, processing and manufacturing is not good..." Li Yuming didn't know the situation of the Ninth Academy. He knew that the Ninth Academy, like the 541 tank base, were just their technical backups, and the Ninth Academy only had a very small-scale production capacity, mainly to retain drawings and various technical personnel to avoid the Republic losing its ability to manufacture tanks in the most tragic situation of the war.

With such a base, there are more talents than them? Can experts from all walks of life compete with them?

"Besides, no matter how advanced the technology is, isn't there only five pairs of heavy wheels?"

What makes all the technicians engaged in armored vehicles most sad in China is that they cannot produce heavy tanks with six pairs of heavy wheels!

If the tonnage is not increased, the defense and offensive ability are naturally much worse.

The main reason is that the engine performance is insufficient. What the Republic can produce is the 580-horsepower engine introduced from the Soviet Union. This engine cannot hold up too heavy iron lumps and run around on the ground.

When Jiang Ming heard this, he smiled and said nothing.

Instead of debating now, it is better to enter the test site and let the facts speak out later.

"What's wrong with the five-pair heavy wheels? Can the five-pair heavy wheels not hold up tanks with higher defense and stronger firepower? The performance of these tanks directly kills the new generation of main battle tanks you are still studying!" Qian Dayong was also very unhappy with Li Yuming's attitude.

The 617 base clearly occupies the most funding, and their funds are all allocated by the state. From the beginning, I have been making money by myself!

He knows better than anyone else how much money has been invested in this. They start from scratch, and they all work on their own materials, engines, and processing equipment. If we put aside the research and development and production of some special CNC machine tools used to process tank engines, the cost will be lower, far from being comparable to the capital utilization rate of a base like 617.

"Boom! Boom..." When the two sides were about to quarrel, the two "weird" tanks carrying 125mm cannons were emitting black smoke on the butts of the "weird" tanks carrying 125mm cannons, and then they started to move.

Due to the tight time, these tanks did not have reactive armor made of inert explosives.

The test site built in the newly completed mountain this time only tests some mobility content. In the next six months, these tanks will have to be transported to the northern desert and the severely cold areas of the northeast for various harsh tests. (To be continued.)
