Chapter 571 Gao Zhendong also talks about science, but only about his

These are all later stories, but the finalization of this missile has caused some companies in the current equipment industry to be happy while others to be worried.

The Changjian Factory was naturally happy, but it also had its worries.

It’s a heavy task!

The troops were extremely satisfied with the performance of the Type 61 rocket launcher and Type 61 anti-tank missile, and had only one request - the more the better.

Especially the 61 fire, this thing is really cheap, but also really easy to use.

If we don't produce more, the troops will have nothing to use. This is not only the case with the 61 firearms produced by the Long Sword Factory, but also the 61 gun family produced in Shancheng.

——40 fire has begun to withdraw equipment for assistance.

The Citibank guys started to make bigger moves in the house of the brothers to our south.

The situation in the country to the south began to become tense, and we demonstrated our internationalism and did not hesitate to directly draw weapons from our active equipment to assist them.

This includes the 40mm rifle currently in service and the semi-automatic rifle currently in service.

Even the latest rifle grenades, which we have not yet equipped ourselves with, are being produced in large quantities for aid.

As for the Type 61 gun family and its matching gun-mounted grenades, they have just been finalized, their performance is still unstable, and the quantity is not large, so they cannot be provided in an organized manner. Well, they are not as good as these things.

We really did, Gao Zhendong cried to death.

Fortunately, these troubles are all happy troubles, and the Changjian Factory is happy to see them.

The comrades who are engaged in infantry combat and pretending to lose are just like those in the long sword factory, feeling both pain and happiness.

Happiness comes naturally from having good things to add to your equipment.

As for the pain, both companies are similar. Once this thing comes, the car body design plan has to be modified. Although the modification is not big, it still has to be modified.

At this time, Gao Zhendong's suggestion to lengthen the vehicle body came into play, especially in terms of transportation. This vehicle has no turret, so the space inside the vehicle is smaller.

Although it was a bit difficult, I could still put in a few spare rounds.

The designers of the two companies thanked Gao Zhendong for his "excellent foresight" while racking their brains to happily stuff missiles into the car.

If they knew that this extra task was given to them by Gao Zhendong, they probably wouldn't be in such a good mood.

Speaking of this, the comrades at the Grassland Tractor Factory who received the news were quite indignant at first.

Why can the output of equipment and infantry combat be increased, but the spearhead, the king of land warfare, cannot be increased?
It’s the opposite of Tiangang!

Later I learned that the comrades in the army were eager to add it, but were relieved after Deputy Chief Engineer Gao suppressed this idea.

Deputy Chief Engineer Gao said it would not be good to install it, so it probably cannot be installed.

Especially Mr. He, he firmly believed that the thing could not be installed on the tank, at least not for the time being.

This was not blind obedience, but he knew in his heart that Deputy Chief Engineer Gao's understanding of tank fire control and application was much more advanced than his own, and he must have sufficient reasons.

Comrades from the Northeast Helicopter Factory had just received the task of researching the search and rescue and armed types of the V-5. Before they could figure things out, they received a new notice.

This is the information of the Chijian-61 anti-tank missile system, and this is the C-5. Okay, now you have to consider installing this thing on the armed type.

If these are all mixed feelings, then the factories that imitate SS.11 are in pure sorrow.

As the chief engineer of the research institute of Chunlei Machinery Factory, Mr. Zhang has been unhappy occasionally recently, but he is generally happy.

At that time, the production plant and the research institute had not yet been separated. Many tasks were carried out in the name of the factory, but the actual research work was done by the research institute within the factory.

Although the progress of copying SS.11 is slow, at least he can still see the progress, which makes him feel happy overall. He dare not say how proud he is. He needs help from others, so what's the point of being proud?

Don't be afraid of being slow, just be afraid of standing still. As long as there is progress, it's good.

However, all this came to an abrupt end after receiving a notice from the Defense Work Committee.

"... In view of the insufficient performance of the equipment and the fact that 'copying means falling behind', in order to save resources and concentrate efforts on major tasks, the Defense Work Committee decided, based on the advice of the Army, to terminate the copying of the equipment and transfer the existing achievements to technical reserves..."

The words "technical reserve" are probably what comrades who are working on actual combat equipment are most afraid of seeing. These words look good, but in fact they mean that the development of this equipment will not continue.

The army finally gave up its stubbornness and was unwilling to waste resources. The SS.11 might be a really good product if sold internationally, but it is useless domestically.

They held a meeting with the Defense Work Committee and directly decided to stop the imitation work of SS.11.

Looking at this notice, Mr. Zhang felt like he was struck by lightning.

Why was it terminated? This is the latest anti-tank missile in the world, how could it be outdated?

There was no foreshadowing at the beginning, and they were even helping to solve technical problems. Everything was going well. But not long after that, in the blink of an eye, the old hen turned into a duck?

Mr. Zhang felt quite angry. Even if there was no money, or there were technical and tactical adjustments, at least give them a chance, right? Not to mention production, at least finish the research, that would be a real technical reserve.

Look at the current achievements, "technical reserves"? There is nothing worth reserving.

It is even possible to adjust the indicators according to new requirements.

Instead of being terminated with just a piece of official document as is the case now.

This is not fair and a waste of all the work, effort and resources invested upfront!
Things can't be done this way!
Mr. Zhang was very angry and decided to go to Beijing to argue his case and try to reverse this wrong decision.

Looking at the chief engineers of each subsystem looking at each other in bewilderment, Mr. Zhang made a decision.

"Book the tickets! We'll all go to Beijing and ask for an explanation from the Defense Work Committee and the Land Equipment Bureau."

The Army Equipment Bureau, the Army Equipment Bureau, is responsible for the planning, research and development, and production of army equipment.

Chunlei Machinery Factory is neither far nor close to Beijing. As a large machinery factory, it still has advantages in buying train tickets.

Three days later, Mr. Zhang and his team arrived in the capital and went straight to the Defense Working Committee.

Upon learning that the comrades from the Chunlei Factory were coming, the leader of the Defense Work Committee looked at the chief engineer and smiled bitterly: "Let's go together and comfort these comrades. Although they are not as skilled as others, they have also put in a lot of effort and hard work. This result is not their fault. We did not expect Gao Zhendong to be so capable."

The Defense Work Committee had no complaints about the comrades at Chunlei Factory, and even felt guilty about it.

When Gao Zhendong first proposed that SS.11 was not feasible, neither the National Defense Committee nor the Land Equipment Bureau listened to him, or did not fully believe it. How could this be possible? There must be physics and science involved, right?
In the end, the Changjian Factory, which was determined to find a breakthrough, joined forces with Gao Zhendong to form a guerrilla force.

The Land Equipment Bureau and the Defense Working Committee had a completely one-shot mentality. They had no doubts that the individual-soldier ammunition could be developed, given Gao Zhendong's previous performance. After all, it would give them one more type of individual-soldier ammunition, so why not do it?

When the alliance with Changjian Factory was formed, Gao Zhendong said that the indicators of individual bullets were not necessarily worse than those of the SS.11 vehicle-mounted heavy bullet. To be honest, apart from the Changjian Factory, the National Defense Committee and the Land Equipment Bureau did not quite believe it.

But no one expected that Gao Zhendong's words were not false at all, and he even set up an ambush in a low-key manner!

He also pays attention to physics and science, but he pays attention to his own physics and science.

Seeing this individual soldier bullet being developed step by step, and seeing that it surpassed SS.11 in all indicators with only one-third of the bullet weight, the Defense Work Committee and the Land Equipment Bureau felt a little embarrassed.

You see, I said that replaying won’t work, right?

No one could say anything about this, including the experts who attended the meeting on the day when the Red Sword-61 was finalized, because most of them were also present when Gao Zhendong said that the SS.11 was not good and suggested that it should not be copied anymore.

But then I think about it, the Russians' heavy bullets are not as good as this, how do you explain this?

Well, it turns out that it wasn't our misjudgment, but Gao Zhendong was too strong! That's fine.

Comrade, if you have the ability, then you can really take it out!
What else can I do? I have to stop playing again.

Therefore, they felt a little sorry for Chunlei Factory, which had suffered an "unprovoked disaster".

So, upon hearing that the other party was coming to Beijing to ask for an explanation, the leader decided to go and appease them with the chief engineer.

With a slightly awkward smile, the leader and the chief engineer met with the comrades from Chunlei Factory in their conference room.

When it comes to business, the comrades at Chunlei Factory have only one word to say - I don't accept it.

The leaders of the Defense Work Committee have no choice but to accept this. They know that you will definitely not accept it, but you cannot refuse to accept it.

Let's speak with facts. It will be difficult to communicate if we don't let them see the facts first.

"Chief Engineer Zhang, we understand your ideas. But for some things, science is science, and the results are there, so we have to listen to them. So, you can take a look at this first."

The chief engineer handed the finalized parameters of Chijian-61 to Chief Engineer Zhang. In order to avoid suspicion, Chunlei Factory could not participate in the finalization of Chijian-61. Chief Engineer Zhang didn't know anything about this thing.

He took it and took a look at the "Opinion on the Finalization of the Chijian-61 Individual Anti-tank Missile".

Wow, as expected, there is an anti-tank missile in the works, but can a single-soldier missile squeeze out a vehicle-mounted heavy missile? Are you kidding me, what can it do with that size and weight?
It seems that because it is cheap, there is still a glimmer of hope.

With this confidence, he opened the "Opinion".

Before he could take two glances, his eyes froze, his face turned pale, his lips moved, and even his hands began to tremble.

"This...this is impossible!"

When other comrades at Chunlei Factory saw him like this, they hurriedly handed him water.

The leader of the Defense Work Committee also personally handed over a glass of water: "Comrade Lao Zhang, this is a fact. This result was achieved at the Syracuse Test Center using more than 100 missiles, one by one."

The two people from the Defense Work Committee understood his feelings very well. Not to mention Chief Engineer Zhang, even they themselves would not have believed it if they had not seen the Chijian-61 gradually take shape starting from the 61 rocket launcher. It was just a fantasy, wasn't it?
