954 Huge list of new equipment development in the Ninth Academy
(Add 6\/25 for Huang Shiren @ Yang ysl)
Liu Yijiu is not an ordinary young man. She wore a general uniform. After only one night, she felt that it was meaningless. Then she put on the camouflage uniform that was usually used as a work clothes and had no erectile robes and collar flowers, and returned to the technical job in the base.
Now the construction of the Blue Army has begun to become regular, and everything has been started with Li Yunlong, an experienced Chiang Kai-shek. What Liu Yijiu needs to deal with is nothing else, just to provide various equipment for the Blue Army as soon as possible.
There is no problem with light weapons and equipment. The armored troops and the Dragon Guard tanks are not a problem. The biggest problem is that they have to equip a battalion of heavy tanks! These tanks have not even been made out of the prototypes yet! Moreover, the fighter troops do not have any equipment available, and the Continental Aviation Regiment only has the multi-purpose armed transport helicopter, the Zhi-91, and a series of troops needing a special attack helicopter battalion, a special transportation helicopter battalion and other troops. The equipment required is still much shorter.
"...The above is the work we need to focus on next. The Blue Army has been established, but when will the weapons and equipment be equipped? The chariot units in the fifth zone can provide only the Dragon Guard 3 type, and there is no more advanced heavy tanks. At the same time, there is no new armored vehicles. We cannot equip the modified Type 63 backward armored vehicles. The Blue Army cannot afford to lose that person, and our Ninth Courtyard cannot afford to lose that person..."
On the first day after becoming a general, Liu Yijiu convened a meeting of cadres and technical personnel at the level of directors and above of the workshops of the Ninth Court. The focus was on discussing the issues of the Blue Army's equipment.
First of all, let’s start with the equipment lacking in the Army.
"Also, we have been planning to develop a new generation of military vehicles, and we haven't seen it for many years..."
"Director Liu, we are under too much pressure for such a lot of tasks at once!" Qian Dayong said with a frown.
Unexpectedly, Liu Yijiu came up and talked about District 5.
No major results have been made. It is not that the comrades in District 5 do not work hard, but that the productivity of the base cannot keep up. Many of their designs have not been turned into physical objects on the drawings. It is very difficult to verify whether the design has no problems.
"What's the pressure? Tanks and armored vehicles are both under the responsibility of different teams. I am not holding anyone accountable or asking who will deliver equipment within a lot of time. Instead, I remind you of the pressure we are facing in the entire Ninth Academy. If you have any questions, we will discuss it together..." Liu Yijiu took a deep breath and said to Qian Dayong, who looked unhappy, "After all, the Blue Army has been officially established now. This is related to the development and construction of our army, and at the same time, to the security of our entire national defense."
"Director Liu, as long as we can mobilize production capacity, we will produce the prototype vehicle, heavy tank, complete the test within one year, and deliver it to the troops in small batches for combat tests." Jiang Ming answered Liu Yijiu with affirmative answer.
From Longweiyi to Longwei3, although the technical changes of various models have not been too great, this newly designed third-generation tank has accumulated a lot of design experience in the fifth zone.
That's why Jiang Ming dared to pat Liu Yijiu's chest to ensure that.
"Director Liu, the same is true for our new armored vehicles, and the time will be shorter than that of the tank..." Meng Fan, who is in charge of the design of the new armored vehicles, said to Liu Yijiu.
He did not introduce the design and various performances of the new armored vehicle here, but it definitely meets Liu Yijiu's requirements.
"In addition, there is also light weapons. If the soldiers of the Mechanical Infantry Regiment are equipped with Type 77 automatic rifles, they are obviously a bit long... We need a new assault rifle." Li Yunlong did not expect that advanced heavy equipment was not a problem.
"Chief, this is not a problem. Our Firearms Research Institute has studied many types of firearms over the years, and there are also assault rifles with shorter gun bodies..." Liu Yijiu's apprentice, Luo Tong, who stayed in the base to study firearms, looked at Liu Yijiu and said embarrassedly, "Although this gun is from the modification of the Type 77 automatic rifle designed by Director Liu, there should not be much change in performance..."
"Luo Tong, very good!" Liu Yijiu cast a praise look at Luo Tong.
Originally, he had just entered the base and had the best relationship with Qin Huaibao and Luo Tong, and Yang Shan had long disappeared.
Because Qin Huaibao couldn't control his belt, if it weren't for Liu Yijiu, he would probably have lost his head now, otherwise he would have been working on a labor reform farm. Liu Yijiu threw him into the South China Sea to build an island, which gave him a very good opportunity.
"Thank you Director Liu for your praise..." Luo Tong felt a little embarrassed.
He had not attended such a meeting before, and even Liu Yijiu was so busy that he had little time to drink with them.
The construction of the Blue Army basically puts forward new requirements on all combat equipment of the entire army, whether it is light weapons or heavy weapons.
All of this is to conform to the future trend of war and the development of military technology.
In the past, the Ninth Academy faced a situation where the equipment was developed and the troops were equipped, and then the information was fed back to the Ninth Academy. This method lags in the feedback of the performance of weapons and equipment. The feedback speed was fast enough when sold, but it was impossible for all weapons and equipment to be sold, or it was allowed to be sold.
"The other is the helicopter aspect. After the research of the Z-91, we have already proposed to build special armed helicopters and special transport helicopters. At present, the helicopter has a regiment organization, and each of these three helicopters will be equipped with one type of battalion..." After Liu Yijiu talked about the chariot and light weapons, he began to ask questions about helicopters in Area 1.
Even though he is the base director, he has always been like a firefighter and has never had any time to patiently listen to the person in charge of each division to report on the research progress.
Therefore, he did not know very completely about the various projects of the base.
"Director Liu, the problem of transport helicopters is not big, but the design of the armed helicopter will probably not be successful in a short period of time..." Wang Yueshan said to Liu Yijiu awkwardly.
"What's the reason?" Liu Yijiu knew that it was difficult to study a dedicated armed helicopter, but with the foundation laid by the Z-91, the problem should not be too big.
Liao Zhuojing replied to Liu Yijiu, "Although the armed helicopter with a coaxial twin-rotor design is very stable, it is not fast enough and has not flexible enough. Moreover, more advanced fire control systems and auxiliary systems should be added to the front nose..."
Liu Yijiu nodded and asked for a solution.
Liao Zhuojing told Liu Yijiu that their current design plan is to consider the design plan of a single rotor with tail rotor.
This plan has become a new challenge for the Ninth Hospital.
Faced with such a situation, what else can Liu Yijiu say?
The only thing that can be said is to tackle the key! Tack the key! Tack the key again!
The Republic was not strong in helicopters at all. It was not until the second decade of the 21st century that it was almost over that it was created. The previous Wuzhi Ten was just a copy and its performance was not advanced enough!
Special attack helicopters have more complex technical levels.
In particular, it must be equipped with more advanced radar and avionics systems, as well as some auxiliary devices, more flexible performance requirements, and improved defense, which cannot make the fuselage too large.
The body is smaller, and it is facing a series of improved designs such as aerodynamic layout.
"Armed helicopters, this must become our next key project! After this, I hope to come up with a detailed plan that can be implemented. Regarding the Air Force, don't confuse helicopters with fighter jets. Helicopters mainly support ground troops in low-altitude areas, rather than air force. Therefore, we specifically divide the helicopters, instead of staying in the Air Force, nor allocating them to the Army..."
The Republic has never had an accurate positioning of the use of helicopters.
Whether it is researchers or the military, there is no clear positioning when using helicopters.
The first established continental aviation group in the Republic seems to have not been formed yet...
So, Liu Yijiu let the helicopters form an army alone.
Because helicopters can not only attack the ground, but also attack the air, and are also responsible for transportation and reconnaissance, it is a kind of equipment with very strong comprehensive capabilities.
Of course, if it develops to their era, fighter jets can effectively hover in the air and their functions will gradually merge with helicopters, there is no need to subdivide them.
"As for the air force equipment, this is mainly in the 611st and 132nd Factory. At present, we only own the imitation F-14. There is no loading weapon platform for flight tests. In addition, the Tu-22M counterfire medium-range strategic bomber, large military transport aircraft, we do not have this. Our Ninth Academy does not currently bear it. The management committee communicates with relevant domestic units. If the other party is willing to undertake the task, we can cooperate. There is no problem with the Y-Ten military transport aircraft, but the carrying capacity is somewhat insufficient... Of course, if it really doesn't work, we will first produce a few Y-Ten equipment to be equipped with our transport troops..."
Liu Yijiu knows the most about the Air Force equipment.
Yun-Ten, although it is a civilian passenger plane, can become a military transport plane after renovation.
However, narrow-body aircraft are used as transport aircraft, but there is really no future.
Transport aircraft in countries around the world are basically wide-body aircraft. Military transport aircraft are the main ones, and even transportation troops are different from the requirements of civil aviation passenger aircraft.
This meeting was basically a brand new starting point for the Ninth Hospital.
Through this meeting, all units of the Ninth Academy understood the work they should focus on in the next step, and at the same time, they also completely pointed out the direction for the development of the Blue Army.
Chapter completed!
