There is no way, the weapons are backward, and in fact, repair and maintenance are not necessarily very cheap. Sometimes, improving maintenance efficiency is also a way to upgrade weapons.
The first F-15 fighter jet to serve is called the hangar queen. This nickname was given by the ground crew. They complained about the poor attendance rate of the F-15 fighter jet when it first entered service.
However, with the advancement of technology and subsequent improvements, the attendance rate of F-15 fighter jets has been significantly improved.
Even so, before the third-generation fighters entered service, the attendance rate of the second-generation fighters with relatively mature technology was actually lower.
Therefore, the maintenance time of a J-7 fighter is not shorter than that of a J-11, and the attendance rate of the J-7 fighter may not be higher than that of the J-20.
Because of this, it is not a very efficient choice for the Alan Hill Empire to retain a large number of old-type weapons.
In fact, in use, the model of this weapon is confusing, and the old weapon has been in service all the time, which has caused too much trouble for the logistics support of the Alan Hill Empire.
As the old saying goes, everything is because there is really no other way! The Alan Hill Empire has no time to manufacture more updated weapons and equipment, nor does it waste time to deal with old weapons.
The final compromise result is that a large number of outdated weapons and equipment have to be kept in use, and in some corners, they continue to play their due role.
Even, because the time is too tight, and there are still demands in some places, etc., the machinery produced by the Alan Hill Empire in the early years continues to play its role.
Those factories that produced old-fashioned tractors have now been relocated to the southern part of the planet to continue their production.
Even the original production line for the production of 7.92 mm caliber bullets, as well as the machinery for the production of Mauser rifles, are still preserved and are in continuous production.
Because the civilian market also needs shotguns, the Alan Hill Empire has no time to design a qualified shotgun for the civilian market—so, the Mauser 98K rifle has been preserved like this, and has become a handgun for some planetary immigrants. in the weapon.
The most primitive machine tools are still in use in some places, or were sent directly to some planets and became part of the industrialization there.
Most of these machine tools were sent to Mayne and other planets that had a direct portal with Alan Sirius, so the transportation cost was very low, and the equipment itself could still continue to generate waste heat.
Ever since, the Alan Hill Empire has become what it is today: the nuclear fusion reactor provides almost unlimited electricity, and these electricity-driven machines may be producing liberation trucks...
And on those planets with average economies, new pure electric cars and liberation trucks live in harmony, and everyone is playing their respective roles in building the Alan Hill Empire.
It's just embarrassing for the logistics support troops - while they are repairing the 99 tanks, they must go back and review how to deal with the gearbox failure of the M4 tanks.
"The puppet's 2nd Armored Army has arrived at the front line. This is good news. We can finally draw out the main heavy armored grenadiers from the long line of defense." Putting down the binoculars in his hand, Burrison smiled and said Said the officer next to him.
On the other side of the trench where he was, the old-fashioned 155 heavy towed howitzers used by the puppet troops were raising their barrels.
Unaware that the tired puppet loader was already standing at the designated position holding the fuzed shells. On the ammunition cart beside him, the puppet was handing the shells one after another to the puppet who was waiting below to carry the shells. Soldier.
"With their addition, the thickness of the defense line will be guaranteed. At least we can guarantee the safety of our rear." The officer around Burrison also had a more relaxed expression than the previous two days.
War, especially large-scale war, does not necessarily have to be an advanced mode of informatization. Because even a super empire cannot convert every shell of its own into an advanced gadget with extended-range rocket guidance.
Production capacity is always a bottleneck, and the difficulty of producing an ordinary shell is less than that of a missile anyway. It is true that missiles may be able to solve more advanced problems, and in a sense it is more economical. Missiles can be used to completely replace artillery shells. The problem lies in another word: "expensive"!
Therefore, after hundreds of old-fashioned 155mm caliber towed artillery and other 105 caliber artillery arrived at the front line, when there is no need to continue to cover a certain position with expensive missiles, all the commanders of the Ireland Hill Empire, Visibly relieved.
"Boom!" While Burison and the officers around him were discussing how to assemble the heavy armored grenadier units next, the 155mm artillery in the distance roared.
All of a sudden, the ground on the artillery position was shaken, and the dust was rolled up by the air waves.
For many years, the commanders of the Ellandhill Empire have not heard such a neat cannon. As a veteran, Burrison was even a little moved at this moment.
He missed this kind of war, and missed the heroism of the dense impact points on the enemy's position rolling almost at the same time.
Katyusha rockets flew over the head densely, and then landed on the ruins of the crashed Jianfeng in the distance.
It was a "man-made" commanding height. The fallen sword turned a depression into a small mound. After the crash, many white-clothed swordsmen settled here to form a line of defense.
"Because orbital bombing has changed the terrain and started to affect the environment and climate, we can only reduce the number of attacks as much as possible... The rest is up to our ground troops!" Burrison was very excited, because he felt that he had another Opportunity to continue building a career.
The officer standing beside him also agreed with him, and echoed, "It is true that powerful weapons can achieve combat effects, but frequent use will definitely have sequelae. Nuclear bombs are naturally shocking as a means of kicking off, but The ending still needs to be written by our traditional ground troops."
"The radiation environment hasn't recovered yet?" Burison turned his head and asked another officer impatiently.
The officer shook his head and replied: "Report sir, because dozens of nuclear bombs were used, the level of radioactive contamination in the vicinity is too high, and it is estimated that it will not return to normal within three days."
"What about electromagnetic radiation?" Burrison continued.
"It is slowly decreasing, and the communication has been restored, sir! To be honest... the current total radiation, without protection, it is not impossible to forcibly enter the radiation area." The officer thought for a while before answering: "Yes ...it's not necessary."
"Then... wait a little longer." Burrison once again picked up the binoculars to enjoy the grand scene of the artillery washing the ground...
