Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

960 Factory.

"Engineer Huang, why are you in such a hurry to leave! Are you dissatisfied with our 960 Factory?"

"Of course not, Section Chief Zhang. I'm very satisfied with 960 Factory. It's just that my mission here was to assist your factory in developing the 35mm anti-aircraft gun. Now that the self-propelled anti-aircraft gun has been developed, and the subsequent odds and ends have been taken care of, there's nothing left for me to do here. I should return to the 713 Institute!"

Huang Zhen really had his eyes opened here. He witnessed Qin Yang concocting the self-propelled anti-aircraft gun in a month. Although the project was launched hastily, it eventually passed the army's assessment successfully. Later, they continued to research and solve various minor problems. Now, the twin 35mm self-propelled anti-aircraft gun is ready to be handed over to the army for final testing. What else would he stay here for?

"Section Chief Zhang, our mission is also completed, and we should go back too," Ma Ming said.

He also felt that his continued stay was somewhat unjustified. He had contributed to the various electrical equipment used in the twin 35mm anti-aircraft gun project, and he had also learned a lot of knowledge from it, feeling very rewarded.

Sweat was about to flow down Zhang Chao's forehead. He had already called Teacher Nie to help contact Qin Yang to come back quickly. If Yangzi doesn't come back, I won't be able to hold on!

"Even if you want to leave, you have to wait for President Qin to come back and hold a farewell party for you," Zhang Chao could only bring out Qin Yang.

"President Qin is very busy, probably doesn't have time. We won't wait for him. I've left a letter on the desk."

They had been here for so long and knew how busy Qin Yang was, often disappearing without a trace. Waiting for Qin Yang to hold a farewell party would take who knows how long.

"Huh, what's going on? Why is it so lively today?" Just then, a voice came from outside.

Along with the voice, Qin Yang and Nie Xiaoqian appeared in front of everyone.

After finishing the Peking duck, Qin Yang first went to Fangbei Company to find Nie Xiaoqian. He was about to do something big and needed to let the old man know. Who would have thought that before he could mention the big event, Nie Xiaoqian told him the news that a group of people in the factory were leaving, so he quickly brought Nie Xiaoqian over.

"President Qin!"

"President Qin!"

Everyone looked at Qin Yang with complicated expressions: "We..."

"I know everything. There is no banquet that doesn't end, but there's no need to be in such a hurry. I'm here to see you off. Let's go, let's go to the cafeteria for a meal together as a farewell banquet."

See them off? Zhang Chao was a little surprised. Aren't we trying to keep these people here? Why are we seeing them off?

"Chaozi, go to the cafeteria and ask the chef to cook a few dishes and set up a table for us!"

"Okay," Zhang Chao accepted the order and left.

The No. 2 Factory cafeteria of 960 Factory. More than a dozen plates were placed on the large round table, and the aroma was enticing.

However, everyone was in a complicated mood, had no appetite, and didn't know what to say.

"President Qin, through the development of this self-propelled anti-aircraft gun, I have learned a lot of experience. After I go back, I will use this experience to modify the anti-aircraft guns used by our navy. At that time, we will still need to purchase gun barrels from 960 Factory. I hope you can provide us with assistance," Huang Zhen said.

As the designer of the twin 37mm anti-aircraft gun, Huang Zhen knew that the performance of this anti-aircraft gun was far behind Qin Yang's 35mm anti-aircraft gun. Now that there is a better anti-aircraft gun, he certainly wants to use this anti-aircraft gun technology to modify the navy's shipborne anti-aircraft guns to make the warship's air defense capabilities stronger.

"Engineer Huang, you should know, our 35mm anti-aircraft gun's main combat target is ultra-low-altitude armed helicopters. What is the combat target of the navy's shipborne anti-aircraft gun?"

"The navy's air defense mission is very urgent. Currently, we don't have qualified air defense missiles, so we can only use anti-aircraft guns to shoot down enemy planes and intercept incoming missiles."

"Then do you think that our anti-aircraft gun for dealing with armed helicopters can deal with highly maneuverable aircraft and high-speed sea-skimming anti-ship missiles?"

Qin Yang nodded.

"But this kind of system is too difficult. Just the use of a rotary cannon, we don't have any technical reserves."

Looking at the domestic arsenal, you can see that there is no weapon with a multi-barreled rotating structure. This completely needs to be developed from scratch, and the technical difficulty is not ordinary.

"It is precisely because we don't have it that we need to develop it," Qin Yang said: "You said the navy is in urgent need, so why don't we simply develop an advanced multi-barreled close-in weapon system?"

Huang Zhen's eyes widened: "President Qin, are you going to create an Oriental Phalanx CIWS?"

"No, our close-in weapon system is much more advanced than the Phalanx CIWS. They have six barrels, we will have seven. They use 20mm, we will use 30mm. Let's create a Type 730 CIWS, how about it?"

"President Qin, do you really want to start this kind of project? Self-research without the support of naval funding?" Huang Zhen looked at Qin Yang in disbelief.

"Of course, I will also participate in the research and development personally. Engineer Huang, do you want to stay?"

"Yes, I'm not leaving!" Huang Zhen nodded: "The 713 Institute can't develop this kind of project. No funds, no technology, I'll still follow you!"

"Okay, Engineer Huang, then let us work together to solve the navy's shortcomings!" After Qin Yang finished speaking, he turned to look at Ma Ming and the others: "Everyone, I also need your help."

"What can we do?" Ma Ming was a little curious.

"This kind of rotary cannon needs electric drive," Qin Yang said: "You are all engaged in electrical engineering, so you need to help us solve the drive problem. This is very critical, directly related to the accuracy of the shells, and also related to the success or failure of the navy's interception of anti-ship missiles."

"Electric drive? Can't it use the energy of gunpowder to rotate on its own?"

"Yes, this is called internal energy. This method has a simple structure, but because the reaction force of the gunpowder gas causes it to vibrate greatly and the accuracy is too poor, we must develop the most advanced close-in weapon system in the world, which must be an external energy solution, that is, using a motor to drive the gun barrel to rotate."

"Okay, then we'll stay too," Ma Ming made a choice.

"Engineer Ma, if you stay, there is another important task to be entrusted to you."

"What task?"

"Design a special drive motor for a large nine-meter diameter disk."
