Liu Mingzhao had regained his composure at this time, and said in a deep voice: "This weapon is indeed extremely powerful! But it is still in the experimental stage and has not yet been finalized for production. We should not rely too much on it. If it can be put into actual combat as soon as possible, it will naturally be the best Okay. If not, we don¡¯t have to be disappointed. Anyway, we didn¡¯t expect such a weapon before. Moreover, the decisive factor that determines the outcome of a war is not the weapon, but the person who uses the weapon, so we must not be careful when formulating future combat plans. Include this kind of weaponry!¡±
Jiang Baili said: "What Commander Bocheng said is correct! We have more than just rocket launchers. We have aircraft, tanks, radars and other equipment that are far ahead of Japan. We have already taken the lead in terms of good tools and weapons, but in the end Victory or failure depends on the determination and will of our hundreds of thousands of warriors! However, if this rocket launcher can be put into actual combat as soon as possible, it can definitely further enhance our combat effectiveness and add a heavy weight to the balance of victory or defeat in the war."
Yang Jie also said: "Yang also agrees with Commander Bocheng's conclusion that 'people are more important than weapons', but we don't bother to extend the scope of 'people' to not only our soldiers fighting on the battlefield, but also Instead, it is extended to all people in the country, such as scientists who develop various weapons and equipment. Doesn¡¯t Japan want to have all kinds of new weapons? Of course, but they can only think about it, because they have nothing like Hachiman Steel, Shitase Gunpowder, however, does not have the uncanny craftsmanship of our scientific researchers, and cannot be made into aircraft, tanks, rocket launchers and other sharp weapons. Isn't this another sense of 'being in the person but not in the weapon'?"
Liu Mingzhao nodded slightly: "If we could equip this kind of Qiufeng-style rocket launcher before the war, Liu would naturally not hesitate. But we can't pin our hopes of victory on a certain weapon. Come on, let's get closer and take a closer look. The true face of this sharp weapon!¡±
Bai Chongxi and Liu Ruming saw the people from the exercise headquarters approaching and hurried forward to greet them. Jiang Baili saw that the car was filled with all kinds of strange and weird equipment. Thick and thick connecting lines shuttled through it like a spider web, as well as red and green buttons, and dotted dashboards. Everything was full of high-tech flavor, and I couldn't help but reach out and explore around.
"Don't move! Will you repair it if it's broken?" The thin young man with glasses immediately stuck his head out of the car and scolded, not caring that Jiang Baili had the rank of major general on his shoulders.
Bai Chongxi quickly whispered to Jiang Baili: "Deputy Commander Jiang, this person's name is Pan Xian, who is Premier Sun's favorite disciple. He was formerly the deputy director of the Computer Research Institute of Jingshi University. His knowledge is excellent. It is said that he has won the National First Prize for Scientific and Technological Progress. He is just a bit arrogant and refuses to accept anyone except Premier Sun. Not long ago, he was appointed by Premier Sun to guide the work of our camp. Within two days, the whole camp was scolded by him. I hope you will Don¡¯t be acquainted with him!¡±
Jiang Baili smiled and said: "A capable person should have a temper. What's more, he is still a disciple of the emperor? Do you dare to be angry and dare not speak out?"
Bai Chongxi was so frightened that he quickly waved his hands and said: "Deputy Commander Chiang, don't be joking. In fact, Dr. Pan is a very nice person. It's just that our soldiers were too stupid to understand his orders, so he got angry. Moreover, he treated the situation the wrong person, and we were I have benefited a lot from scolding, so how can I have resentment in my heart?"
Yang Jie knew who the other party was from this sharp roar: "Brother Xiancai, do you still recognize my little brother Yang Jie?" It turned out that Yang Jie had also studied at the High School Affiliated to Jingshi University for several years before being selected to go to Japan. Studying abroad at the Army Non-commissioned Officer School. From this level, the two can be regarded as brothers, but they did not know each other at first. It was not until later that Yang Jie joined Sun Yuanqi as the guard captain. He often traveled to Jingshi University and met with Pan Xian and others, and the two gradually became familiar with each other.
Pan Xian pushed up his glasses: "Oh, Junior Brother Yang, didn't I hear that you went to Germany to study? When did you come back?"
Yang Jie and Pan Xian shook hands and replied: "I just came back a few days ago and was sent here by my husband to help with the training affairs. Unexpectedly, I met you here, senior brother. We meet you everywhere in life." !Come on, let me introduce you to my senior brother. This is General Liu Bocheng, the commander of the exercise headquarters. He was the captain of your guard before my younger brother and Commander Feng Huanzhang. This is General Jiang Baili, the deputy commander of the exercise headquarters. He is also the top military commander in the country. Famous military educator;¡
"Senior brother should know that this exercise is of great importance. Sir, you are also paying close attention to it, so I appointed you to go south to personally guide it. We have all seen the effect of the rocket launcher exercise just now. To be honest, it is very shocking! But rocket launchers must be effectively used on the battlefield. And to maximize its effectiveness, we must first let our commanders and fighters clearly understand the specific structure of this equipment, how to use it, and its advantages and disadvantages. I wonder if senior brother can help us clear up our doubts?"
I don¡¯t know whether what Yang Jie said is indeed true, or whether it¡¯s because of the warm feelings between brothers and sisters. Although Pan Xian was a little unhappy, he still patiently told everyonePeople introduced the working principle of the Qiufeng rocket launcher: "As you can see, this vehicle is mainly the latest electronic computer specially designed for the rocket launcher system. It is embedded with a ballistic function that has been corrected after many tests. It can be adjusted according to altitude, Factors such as longitude and latitude, wind speed and direction, and target distance are used to calculate the ballistic parameters required for rocket launch in an extreme time, and then notify each launch vehicle to adjust its attitude.
"The measuring vehicle next to it is equipped with various measuring instruments representing the latest technological level purchased from various countries around the world, including tilt levels, optical theodolite, wind cup anemometers, wind vanes, thermometers, etc., which can provide real-time possibilities to electronic computers. Various data that disturb the ballistics. This electric power support vehicle uses a diesel generator recently invented by German scientist Rudolf Diesel to provide power for electronic computers and some measuring equipment.
"As for the three launch vehicles, they were mainly jointly developed by the Ordnance Science Research Institute, Peking Iron Works, and General Motors. Pan is not sure about the specifics, but the technical content is not much greater than the three auxiliary vehicles here. Let! Because these rocket launchers are multi-barreled and fired continuously, the force of the rocket launcher on the director during launch and the force of the powerful gas flow after the rocket on the rocket launcher will cause the rocket launcher platform to vibrate, causing continued The hit rate of rocket launchers has decreased. In order to reduce the spread of rockets, the launch sequence and time intervals of rockets must be strictly controlled. This requires not only complex mechanical calculations, but also countless test calibrations. You can imagine the complexity!"
"Then what are the advantages and disadvantages of this equipment? Why don't you go to Dr. Pan and tell the truth!" Liu Mingzhao was obviously more concerned about this issue.
Pan Xian scratched his head: "As for the advantages, everyone should have seen it after the live-fire exercise just now. It has the characteristics of fast firing speed, fierce firepower, and good surprise. For example, our three experimental rocket launchers fired in just 20 seconds. It can produce 120 artillery shells. If there are more units, the effect will be more obvious. This is not comparable to ordinary artillery! In addition, these transmitters are installed on cars and can move quickly at any time to switch battlefields and have extremely strong maneuverability. , can seize fighter opportunities in time, strive for the initiative, strike the enemy by surprise, and improve one's own survivability.
"All things in the world have pros and cons that complement each other. There cannot be anything with only advantages and no disadvantages, and rocket launchers are no exception. Since it has so many advantages, what are its disadvantages? In my opinion, the first thing is The rockets that are fired are widely spread and have poor density. In other words, if a group of rockets is fired with the same shooting elements, the impact point may be different because it is affected by factors such as initial disturbance, propulsion eccentricity, and gusts. Thousands of miles.
"This shortcoming is caused by the one-sided pursuit of fast launch speed and fierce firepower. At present, using measuring instruments to measure various disturbance parameters and using computers to calculate rocket trajectories are just remedial measures after a desperate situation. Precisely because of the poor density, this This greatly limits the tactical use of rocket launchers. For example, it can only be used for large-area shooting and is not suitable for accurately striking single-point targets; it can only shoot at the enemy's depth, but cannot shoot at targets close to our army's front. Otherwise, it will be easy to hurt your own troops, etc."
Jiang Baili was a little unimpressed: "What Dr. Pan said is indeed true, but after all, rocket launchers have more advantages than disadvantages, especially in terms of preventing enemy troops from landing and blocking subsequent reinforcements. It is incomparable to ordinary artillery. Are there other disadvantages? ?¡±
Pan Xian continued: "The second obvious shortcoming is that it is easy to be exposed. As you have just witnessed with your own eyes, the gas flow ejected when the rocket launcher blew up the dust in the position, and the rocket was spitting fire during the entire active phase of its flight. The flames can be tens of meters or even hundreds of meters long. If there are more than a dozen or dozens of rocket launchers firing at the same time, the position will be filled with smoke and dust, and the flames will be soaring into the sky, which will easily expose the position. Therefore, it is best to choose a relatively concealed and safe position for the rocket launcher. Entering and exiting a convenient place so that you can quickly evacuate the battlefield after the launch is completed and avoid the enemy's retaliatory energy. This is also the fundamental reason why the rocket launcher uses a car as a carrier.
"The third disadvantage is that the structure of rockets is more complex than that of ordinary artillery shells, the manufacturing cost is relatively high, the service processing is complicated, and the reliability and ease of operation are not as good as ordinary artillery shells. Especially various data measurements and launch trajectory calculations Such work is far beyond the capabilities of ordinary soldiers and must be operated by specialized personnel. How to train qualified operators is also a huge bottleneck restricting the development and application of rocket launchers!"
Yang Jie smiled and said: "The first two shortcomings are not shortcomings in the first place, let alone the corresponding remedies have been made at the beginning of the design? As for the third shortcoming, that is an issue that Mr. Sun, the arsenal and the military academy students need to worry about, and it is also It's none of our business. Now I have only one question for my teacher: when will such a powerful weapon be officially put into service? Even if it is three to five guns, one to twenty gunsalso!
