Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

After saying all this, Qin Yang's mouth was already dry, and looking at the time, it was already evening! His stomach was growling.

"Okay, today's meeting will end here." Qin Yang directly replaced the leaders above and issued an order: "Now, we have to go eat. Man is iron, food is steel, you'll be hungry if you miss a meal."

"That's right, it's time to eat. President Qin, we have one last thing left."

"Speak."

"Tell me, will our wheeled infantry fighting vehicle make it in time for the military parade?"

Qin Yang helplessly looked up at the ceiling: "How is that possible? How long did it take us to develop the 99 tank? In such a short period of time, wanting to send this wheeled infantry fighting vehicle to the military parade is just wishful thinking."

"If it were someone else, it definitely wouldn't work, but President Qin, you still have a chance."

Qin Yang shook his head: "It won't work, it just won't work. This is an infantry fighting vehicle, not small arms like guns and ammunition."

The previous myths had been spread for too long, and everyone believed them, thinking that Qin Yang was omnipotent and very fast. In reality, Qin Yang didn't have such ability. Small things like guns and ammunition were okay, he could tinker them out in a few days, but how could a big thing like an infantry fighting vehicle be possible?

Simply put, if a gear is processed unqualified, it may cause the entire transmission system to break down. He also has to work on side transmission. Although he remembers the design principles, the details still have to be studied, and it has to meet the processing level of this era. It's not something that can be accomplished overnight.

"Okay, if it can't be done, then it can't be done. We'll just wait. Let's go, let's go eat. This meal will be charged to the army's account."

"Okay, okay, President Qin, we'll listen to you."

Zhu Lao didn't say much. President Qin has money, so let him treat. Anyway, it's not part of his division.

The cafeteria had already prepared the food. When everyone went in, the steaming food was brought to the table. Qin Yang looked at the mixed vegetables and steamed buns and smiled wryly. The standard for this meal was a bit low.

Saying it's a treat, it doesn't cost much to eat like this.

"The steamed buns at Institute 201 are very well steamed, they are layered." An army leader said, "We just love to eat the steamed buns here."

"That's right, this mixed vegetable dish is also very delicious. I heard that the chef in your Institute 201's cafeteria also has a unique skill, he can make a whole pot of egg drop soup with one egg."

Qin Yang didn't say much. He sat down with everyone, ate, and thought about things.

"President Qin, what are you thinking about?" Zhu Lao asked while eating.

"I'm thinking that the grain coupons for this meal will be charged to our Factory 960's account."

Everyone laughed.

"President Qin, are you thinking about our third-generation tank?" Zhu Lao continued to ask.

"Yes, I haven't been there for a long time. Our comrades at Institute 201 have worked hard."

Now the food in the cafeteria is still for entertaining these guests. Usually, it must be even worse. These researchers don't care about these treatments, they are focused on scientific research. They have really worked hard.

"It's not hard work, our related sub-systems have recently made breakthroughs." Zhu Lao said, "The laser suppression system has been completed. After testing, the performance fully meets the standards. President Qin, thank you for your advice back then."

The domestic third-generation tank uses a lot of brand-new technologies. The engine, tank gun, and hull are almost all new. Even the weapon system on it has been greatly improved. The laser suppression system is a magic weapon to defeat the enemy.

On the battlefield, if you want to accurately hit the enemy, the first step is to range. Only when you know the distance can you adjust the elevation angle of the barrel. In the past, it relied on manual mental arithmetic, but now it relies on laser rangefinders.

The appearance of this device greatly improved the gunner's reaction ability, allowing him to fire faster. At the same time, there was also a new shortcoming: if the laser is interfered with or even suppressed, the battle cannot continue.

The Eastern tank is taking this path, suppressing the opponent's laser rangefinder by installing a laser suppression system, so that the opponent cannot launch an attack first. However, the initial plan was to develop a fully automatic model. The technology was complex and the difficulty was great. After working on it for a long time, there was no progress. After learning about this situation, Qin Yang immediately proposed a new suggestion: change from fully automatic to semi-automatic!

What China lacks is electronic technology. A fully automatic laser suppression system is very simple. It will immediately counterattack after discovering the enemy's laser irradiation, thereby preventing the enemy from firing. However, this system is very complex and China cannot handle it at all.

Downgrading to semi-automatic, mainly responsible for monitoring, and finally leaving the operation to the tanker, this system is immediately simplified. Now, a prototype has been manufactured and testing has begun.

"Is that so? This is really good news." Qin Yang said, "However, the main credit still goes to the front-line technicians. I just said a few words. When we display this system on the military parade, it will definitely make the outside world competitive."

"President Qin, if we display it, will it cause others to imitate?" A leader said.

Some technologies need to be cherished, and rashly announcing them may be detrimental to oneself.

Qin Yang smiled: "The Americans already have the Star Wars program, and the Russians also have laser tanks. Compared to that, what is our small laser suppression system? Moreover, we will not introduce it, we will just put the device there and let outsiders guess."

President Reagan's Star Wars program was really awesome, the entire outer space became a battlefield, and a beam of laser could fly from overhead at any time and burn a hole in your roof.

Most of these are bragging, but the Russians took it seriously and started the same project in a down-to-earth manner, such as the Polar Star laser satellite weighing 80 tons, with a laser output power of 100 megawatts. You must know that the Mir space station was only 120 tons, and this big guy alone weighed 80 tons, which was definitely tough enough. Unfortunately, the Energia rocket was not powerful enough at the time, and the launch failed to enter orbit.

At the same time, the Russians also have land-based laser weapons, which is the 1K17 laser tank. It looks very similar to the prism tank in Red Alert, and also like a rocket launcher. The huge laser weapon can directly blind the people on the opposite side, but unfortunately it was not developed in the end.

Compared with these big guys, our laser suppression system is nothing. When it is announced, the Americans may think that we are also fooling around, and the Russians think that this is just a drizzle. Only later will they react: the Eastern system seems to be the most practical, and it will be too late to catch up by then.
