Chapter 347 This is a fully loaded bomb
As the leader of the Defense Working Committee, he knew very well what 420mm static armor-piercing capability meant for anti-tank weapons. This meant that we could use a small 80mm warhead to penetrate the front of all current mainstream tanks.

Well, non-mainstream ones can also fight, such as Hanscat's 188-ton super non-mainstream Maus. Although that thing weighs 188 tons, the armor on its body is no more than 300mm, and it can only tremble in fear in the face of this penetration.

Think about the 40mm round that was imitated a few years ago. It also has a caliber of 80mm, but its penetration is incomparable to this one, not even half of this one. How did they do it?
Oh, it was Gao Zhendong who did it. That’s okay. The leaders of the Defense Work Committee have become accustomed to this kind of miracle.

However, things are not that simple.

The following passage made the leader truly appreciate what a true miracle is.

"After replacing the black-mixed 60-grenade charge developed by Comrade Gao Zhendong, the static armor penetration depth reaches 600mm, and the penetration rate of 600mm thick homogeneous steel armor target plate is higher than 90%."

! ! ! !
What did I see? Even the leaders who had seen many ups and downs since the war years found this matter too unbelievable.

Damn it! How is this possible?!
80mm caliber has 600 armor penetration. Are you the god in the sky in charge of armor penetration?

If Gao Zhendong’s name hadn’t been on the list, the leader would have almost called back and angrily denounced him for being “exaggerated”!

Seeing the leader's expression change, the comrades in the meeting room did not dare to speak.

The leader calmed down from all the thoughts and read the passage again.

"Comrade Gao Zhendong's research on gangsters born after the 60s".
It seems a bit reliable? The leader doesn't know what this black 60 is, but it seems to be a new high-energy charge that Gao Zhendong has tinkered with.

This explains it. Gao Zhendong first led them to make a new warhead, which increased the armor-piercing power by more than 200, and then gave them a new charge, which increased the power by nearly 200. Well, this makes sense.

Go away, what's the point of being reasonable? What kind of structure and charge can achieve this effect? ​​The first increase is 100%, and the second increase is another 100%.

But the same thing goes, Gao Zhendong is there, he is the one taking the lead, which makes everything possible.

Left Brain: Impossible!

Right brain: It’s true!

The leader soon stopped worrying and asked them to come over and report!
It's normal for them to come and report such a big thing.

He didn't even read the back of the document. There was still a meeting going on. He put the document away and called the communicator over.

"Tell them to prepare all the materials and report to Beijing immediately!"

After receiving the call back, Changjian Factory spent the whole night preparing for the trip. The next morning, they and Gao Zhendong set out for Beijing.

However, he did not take Gao Zhendong's GAZ-69, but another CA10. He mainly took the penetrated target plates to show to the leaders. The Changjian Factory was very considerate and cut open some of them so that he could see directly without using a probe.

The reason why I have to spend the whole night is because of these preparations.

Nothing else works, this thing is more convincing than anything else.
To see whether it is powerful or not, look at the hole; to see whether it is true or not, measure the depth of penetration.

Of course, you still need to bring some new target plates, Ti-Black warheads, and Black Hybrid 60 warheads, just in case you need to fire a shot on the spot to see if it works? This is very likely.

After removing the fuses and transporting them according to regulations, these things are very safe.

A group of people shook the drum for a whole day, and arrived at the gate of the Defense Work Committee in the afternoon and evening.

The guards who had been prepared efficiently checked their documents and let them in.

The report was made the next morning. The arrangements of the Defense Work Committee were very tight, but the scope of people who listened to the report was extremely small, so this was not an acceptance.

The people from the Changjian Factory spent another night filling the room with the things they brought. These were all treasures, and these were what everyone wanted to see.

The next morning, as soon as the leader entered the conference room, his eyes first looked at the several steel targets placed in the corner of the conference room.

He took a few quick steps over and observed it carefully.

On the silvery-white metal surface that appeared due to cutting, there was a long straight perforation. The inner surface of the perforation was rough and appeared charred due to having been subjected to high temperatures.

A rubber ruler is attached above the perforated section, and a number is considerately marked at the bottom of the perforation.

"428mm"

"421mm"

"."

The same is true for the other few pieces, except that the number is even more shocking.

"607mm"

"610mm" "."

The leader watched and laughed. In fact, he was already certain that this story was true. After all, there was Gao Zhendong's golden signboard involved.

Let me put it this way, even if the people from the Changjian Factory wanted to brag, Gao Zhendong himself would not allow them to do so. He could not afford to lose face.

So it must be true, we just want to know why it is true.

But after seeing the penetration with his own eyes and comparing it to the small warhead next to it, he still found it incredible.

But he was not in a hurry, the answer would be revealed soon. He was just passing through these amazing target boards and enjoying the feeling of being the only one in the world. It was so wonderful.

The 80mm caliber has a penetration of 420mm, which is enough to cause a huge explosion. There is nothing wrong with saying that the 600mm is the best in the world.

Several more people came one after another. Each of them walked towards the target board display area in the corner and watched carefully there.

No one said much, but there was surprise in their faces and eyes. These target boards were so precious.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, the leader of the Defense Work Committee announced the start of the meeting.

There were only six people in total, the leader of the Defense Working Committee, the chief engineer, Gao Zhendong, General Manager Luo, and a person from the user side. The other one was not wearing a uniform, but judging from his temperament, he also looked like a user. These two people seemed to be about the same age as the leaders of the Defense Working Committee.

No other persons are allowed to approach this meeting room.

Gao Zhendong was a little puzzled. Was this scene a little unusual?

But he didn't think too much about it. It was a small mid-term report, so it was normal to have fewer people.

After the leader of the Defense Work Committee announced the meeting, he turned to Gao Zhendong and said, "Comrade Zhendong, please report how this achievement was achieved. It is truly amazing! Just talk about the process, don't get into the technical stuff."

If you don’t talk about technology, there’s nothing to say.

Gao Zhendong quickly recounted the entire process, saying that he had studied the theory himself, improved the structure of the warhead, and increased its power.

Then they felt that the TiB-XX charge was a hindrance, so they tried to research another type of charge. So far, it looks good, but there is no time to test its long-term properties such as thermal stability and storage performance. However, from a theoretical analysis, these properties are also very good.

The situation is clear and simple.

"Comrade Zhendong, in other words, the warhead manufactured with this technology can achieve a reliable penetration of at least 80mm with a caliber of 420mm, provided that it is stable and preserved for a long time?"

The question asked by the leader of the Defense Working Committee is to start from the minimum requirements. The Tihei-XX has stood the test of time and can be stored for a long time. Then the warhead manufactured with it can hit at least 420!

Gao Zhendong nodded: "Yes, I can guarantee that."

"What are the other parameters of this warhead? For example, its weight."

This involves the issue of ammunition carrying capacity, so there can be no ambiguity.

Gao Zhendong said: "The warhead is heavier than the current 40mm warhead due to structural optimization and more charge, but the total weight of the two is the same, both are a little more than 1.8kg."

A better warhead, heavier, but at the same time there is a better rocket engine, lighter than the existing 40 rockets, the two cancel each other out, and it's just about the same.

"Full ammunition weight? This is a complete ammunition? Isn't it prepared to improve the 40 rocket launcher?"

I didn’t expect there would be such a surprise. The leader of the Defense Work Committee was shocked. How many things have you done behind my back?

Gao Zhendong smiled and said, "Leader, this is another thing I am going to report. I did study it in the form of a complete ammunition. I want to make a disposable rocket launcher."

"Disposable rocket launcher? We already have 40 rockets. What is your starting point for this?" Although the leader knew that Gao Zhendong would not speak without a purpose, he was still very curious.

"Mainly considering the 'mass war', the starting point of the disposable rocket launcher is that it is simple to produce, easy to use, light and easy to carry, does not require too much training, does not take up establishment, can be quickly distributed to the militia for use, and can also be equipped with one or even two rockets per infantry squad without breaking the existing establishment, greatly improving our infantry's accompanying firepower for assaults." Speaking of this, Gao Zhendong became excited.

"The existing 40 fires can also accompany the attack." The user's representative said with a smile.

"Commander, I have two main concerns. First, the existing 40 launchers will occupy two people in the infantry squad. Second, the accompanying firepower is on these two comrades. Even if other comrades help carry ammunition, they can't use it without the launcher. But in the course of the battle, any comrade may need the firepower of the assault."

The biggest problem with the organization is which combat group this fire group will accompany during combat.

"So my idea is that this disposable rocket launcher will be used as a supplement to the existing 40 firearms. It does not take up any space in the organization. When needed, each person can have one. It can greatly improve the infantry's attack and anti-tank firepower."

The user was thinking for a moment, but the leader of the Defense Committee laughed: "Hey, you kid, supplement? I see you just want to replace it. This one has such strong firepower, anyone would be willing to use it. How is this bullet now?"

Gao Zhendong was excited: "During this period, my colleagues from the Changjian Factory and I have also made some sample bullets. Thanks to the improved performance of the new propellant we studied, the effective range of the sample bullet has reached 150 meters, which is stronger than the existing 40 fire."

Now the leaders of the National Defense Committee and the users were excited. They originally thought that the warhead was heavy and the range could not be guaranteed at the same weight, but they didn't expect it could be shot even farther?
