"This tank was also developed by you for the international market?" General Qin asked suddenly.

Zheng Yucheng shook his head, "Chief, from the very beginning, we never thought about selling this tank. Otherwise, we would not have quoted such a high price before. It is true that at the current cost price, 300 vehicles, we all There is a profit. This is developed for the army..."

Although Zheng Yucheng's words are true, not many people believe it.

Everyone knows that the current domestic troops are low in funding, and the cost of equipment has been developed, and the cost price is available, and the troops cannot afford it.

404 has a history of selling good things to takeout. As long as it can make money, it sells everything.

Seeing that the big guys didn’t believe it, Xie Kai, who didn’t intend to speak, said, “Chief, there’s actually no need to worry about this. Even if we want to sell, someone has to want to buy it. In the international arms market, except for those who were facing war. In Iraq, we don’t expect to find a second Iraqi customer. The advanced heavy equipment in the international arms market is the markets of the United States and the Soviet Union..."

The rich are not willing to buy Chinese equipment. These years, Chinese equipment is synonymous with backward performance and low price.

Those who don't have money want to buy it, but they can't afford it.

Xie Kai's words made a bunch of bigwigs silent, and that's the truth.

The advanced ones can't be used by domestic troops either. Which country’s military does not want to use the world’s top equipment?

Now the top equipment has been developed and I can't afford it.

"Didn't you say that the allocation will not be reduced?" Hong Aiguo asked suddenly. "The artillery-launched missiles are cancelled, and the tank's air defense capabilities will be much weaker..."

Cannon-launched missiles, this technology sounds very advanced.

If you want to cancel or even reduce the configuration now, you are naturally not happy.

This kind of equipment should be the mainstream development direction of all countries in the world in the future.

"Chief, gun-launched missiles. If you only launch anti-tank missiles and ordinary missiles for attacking fortifications, you only need to improve the fire control system. It is too wasteful to launch air defense missiles. Launching air defense from tank guns Missiles require a complete set of air defense radar and fire control systems, and the cost is too high..." Zhang Deming explained quickly.

Xie Kai is staring at him right now, with a cannibal expression.

Originally, it was only proposed to develop artillery-launched missiles to enhance the attack power of tanks.

The Feidun-359 air defense system allowed them to see an opportunity. Originally, they wanted to add an air defense module to the tail of the turret. The cost was too high. The technology of the entire Feidun must be transplanted. Later, artillery-launched missile technology was developed, mainly the tail of the missile. Folding technology, which is also a breakthrough in the technology of the domestic missile vertical launch system, is to consider directly adding anti-aircraft missile launches in the artillery-launched missile system.

At a cost of 20 million, artillery-launched air defense missile systems accounted for about 3 million.

"Chief, the technical cost of artillery-launched anti-aircraft missiles is high, and the functions are not as strong as imagined. It will even affect the ammunition due to the internal storage of missiles... If we really want to air defense, it is better to follow our original setting and increase a tank by 1 To 2 Feidun-359, this will not increase the cost of all tanks." Xie Kai said.

Some technologies seem advanced and are not necessarily practical.

"In fact, it's just like martial arts. Some martial arts look very powerful, but they are of little use on the battlefield. The army's martial arts boxing is not so fancy, and they are all killing tricks." Xie Kai continued.

The idea of ​​these big guys deploying artillery-launched anti-aircraft missiles in the new tank must be dispelled.

"So, can you even cancel artillery-launched missiles?" General Qin asked, "Tank battles are usually accompanied by armored vehicles. Even if there is no armored vehicle, you can equip one or two avant-garde in the battle compartment..."

Feidun-359 is too expensive.

Although the flying shield has a strong air defense capability and can defend against tactical missiles, the defense height is not very high, and the range is not far enough. There is no problem with attacking ground attack aircraft and helicopters. But for domestic troops, it is also a bit tasteless.

There are not even many helicopters in China.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

The experience of fighting tanks and gunships is even zero.

The big guys naturally don't think it is necessary for company level units to be equipped with Flying Shield-359.

Feidun-359, with a 404 urine rate, the cheapest car is estimated to be 15 million.

"Chief, we have indeed thought about this idea before. Our base technology development has a characteristic, that is, professional things are left to professional equipment." Wang Guilin also said.

The 404's armored vehicles and short-range air defense systems are far ahead in China.

Speaking of professional, they are more professional than other units.

"These are the conclusions drawn during the training of the special forces brigade. The biggest enemy of the armored cluster is not the armored cluster. These days, the war is no longer the same as before. Everything is a soldier against a soldier, and a general against a general. I have been exploring in the past few years, and the role of the ground armored forces is almost to clean the battlefield..." Xie Kai knows that the big guys are reluctant.

Even if the damn Gulf War is not unexpected, it will take more than a year before it breaks out.

Only after the outbreak of the Gulf War and the Americans taught the troops of all countries in the world a vivid lesson on how to deal with future wars, will the whole world understand what a modern war is.

If the Gulf War does not break out and the Americans will not fight Iraq, all military personnel still believe that the Soviet Union’s steel torrent is the main body of the war.

Even the Americans themselves do not have any confidence in their new style of warfare.

Iraq is the sharpening stone used by the Americans to test their war theory.

Since then, the United States has led the development of the global military for decades.

"The ground troops bear the responsibility of cleaning the battlefield?" Hong Aiguo smiled.

The other big guys also laughed.

Didn't this kid see the "West-81" military exercise that the Soviet Union made the world tremble in the first place, right?

"Yes! If you do not occupy, there is even no need for ground troops to be dispatched. Chiefs, if you have an understanding of the special forces brigade's style of play, you will understand. Before the war begins, use all means to obtain sufficient intelligence , Determine the target. Once a war breaks out, the missile will destroy the enemy’s air defense target in the first time, and then the Air Force will carry out precision strikes on the enemy’s important military targets. The armored clusters will also be destroyed within the range of air targets... After the greatest threat, the ground forces move forward..." Xie Kai introduced the special forces brigade's style of play.

In fact, this was also how the US military played in the Gulf War and even in countless subsequent wars initiated by the US military.

The special operations brigade cannot be as powerful as the US military for no other reason. Some supporting auxiliary equipment, such as reconnaissance systems and electronic warplanes for electronic suppression, are still being developed.

Not to mention the satellite system.

"The special combat brigade's style of play is indeed very advanced, just like Tian Ji's horse racing. Similarly, it's too expensive..." a general said with a wry smile.

It's not that they don't think this style of play is advanced, but that the expenditure of the special forces brigade makes all military generals intolerable.

There are dozens of millions of missiles. Before the war, a bunch of missiles were fired, and the equipment money of a brigade was lost...it was all money for fighting.

"Yeah, spending too much money is not suitable for promotion." In addition, some generals also wryly smiled.

"My heads, wars have never been said to save money. When a cannon is fired, gold is ten thousand taels. Ancient wars cost money, let alone modern wars. The Iran-Iraq War has been fought for eight years, and the combined military expenditures of the two warring countries exceeded 200 billion U.S. dollars..." Xie Kai said calmly, "The country's national defense policy is strategic defense, and army building is also focused on improving defense..."

Having said so much, isn't it just to let the big guys above dispel the idea of ​​adding artillery-launched missile systems to the domestic-359 tanks.

Isn't it just to get them to agree to reduce the configuration and purchase at a lower cost?

Why is it so difficult.

Hong Aiguo frowned and looked at the 404 people.

To be honest, he doesn't quite believe these people.

It has always been for money, and all technologies are sold out. As a result, when the domestic needs, they say that they will reduce the distribution and sell them abroad. They have a completely thoughtful attitude.

"Chief, take the food, add advanced technology that has little practical effect but high cost, so that the price will be higher." Zheng Yucheng faced Hong Aiguo's problem, not embarrassed at all. "If the troops are willing to take it, we won't have any opinions."

"It's really very different from the foreign trade model?" Hong Aiguo didn't believe it.

"Chief, the two tanks are completely comparable. All of them are redesigned. Of course, the production line of the 359 tank can still produce these. In the engine compartment, space is reserved for the replacement of a larger horsepower engine. The overall lengthened and widened. The power system is insufficient. In order to reduce the weight and avoid the burden on the power system, more advanced materials can only be used to improve the defense of the thinned armor..." Zhang Deming explained.

As the chief designer of the 359 tank, he naturally knows the situation.

"The increase in artillery-launched missile systems has not only increased the manufacturing cost, but also increased the cost of use. When our barrels are used with ordinary shells, the lifespan can reach 800 rounds, and the tail fins are stable and the service life of the armor-piercing projectile is reduced to 450. If you launch a cannon-launched missile, the life span is less than 300 rounds..." Xie Kai gave another reason again.

The barrel of the export 359 tank has a longer service life, because the barrel is shorter and the chamber pressure is much lower when the gun is fired.

With 48 times the diameter and higher chamber pressure, the initial velocity of the projectile when it is launched is also higher. For armor-piercing projectiles, the higher the initial velocity, the better.

It stands to reason that the lower chamber pressure when launching a gun to fire a missile will increase the service life of the gun barrel.

However, when launching air defense missiles, in order not to affect the guidance performance of air defense missiles, only the bottom charge can be reduced. Repeatedly fired at high pressure and low pressure, the damage to the barrel was more serious...

A group of bigwigs began to discuss how they should be configured.

The 404 person was directly kicked out, so as not to affect the discussion of the big guys.

"Will they approve the 7.5 million reduction version? How much will the purchase amount?" Zheng Yucheng was a little worried.
