Chapter 1067: Infallible
After starting, the next step is some simple actions.
The tank slowly and "cluckily" drove off the production line, drove directly outside the factory, and then turned the turret... carefully, as if it was not a tank, but a piece of porcelain, for fear of damaging it. .
It wasn't until half an hour later that there seemed to be no problem, and the tank crew inside began to let go. Drive the tank to the backyard of the tractor factory.
There is a relatively large open space here, and part of the tractors that were originally manufactured will be parked here. Because there aren't that many orders, this space is free, just in time for the tanks to run in. .??.??
Now, unlike a few decades later, CNC machine tools have high machining accuracy and almost no need for running-in of mechanical parts. At this time, newly manufactured machinery, regardless of whether it is Japanese or independent, has a running-in period.
After the running-in period, you can use it happily.
Therefore, regardless of whether it is a tank or a car, a brand new one is not as easy to drive as one that is 80% new. At this time, the tank was circling in the open space at a speed of less than twenty yards.
Time passed by, and the large-displacement diesel engine was running, emitting black smoke with a special smell. The steel behemoth weighing more than thirty tons ran over the ground, leaving deep track marks.
Half an hour passed, and there was no mechanical failure in the tank. This made everyone present breathe a sigh of relief.
Especially Yang Tong, who is specifically in charge of the engine, has not broken down so far, and there should be no problems with the power and transmission system. Yang Tong got off the last two steps and said: "Manager, Mr. Sun, you can't slow down a little bit. Keep the eighty yards in the eighth gear."
Lin Tiansheng looked at Zhang Xian.
Du Fei said: "They make the final decision on technical issues."
Lin Tiansheng nodded and picked up the radio at hand, giving orders to the outside of the tank. It's very slow, and the tank circling in circles obviously slows down.
The minimum speed of the original T62 tank is only 50 kilometers per hour. Now that prototype car can't be considered fast even if it's over 80 years old.
After all, that prototype car still used the old transmission system derived from the T54, so it could not fully utilize the performance of the new engine. But when the top speed reaches 40, it should be less than me.
In addition, it is not this imitation 115mm tank gun that must be tested.
In a few days, the tanks will be displayed. Why don't they drive the tanks, cross the country, have fun, and then fire a few shots at the target? The most intuitive impression is not whether it runs slowly or slowly, but whether it hits accurately or accurately.
Unfortunately, there was only one prototype, and the tractor factory had no place to test the cannon. We can only wait until tomorrow to bring the tank to the testing ground in the suburbs.
After another seventy minutes, Zhang Xianya asked the tanker to briefly increase the speed to 45 kilometers per hour. It was like trying the ultimate speed.
Immediately after it stopped, Li Geng rushed down with a small group of technicians to collect data and check mechanical wear. Du Fei stood aside and waited silently.
It must be said that it was an exam just now, and now it is judged by handing in the paper with love.
After working for half an hour, Li Geng finally came back with a piece of report paper, sweating.
There was oil on his face, but he said with a cheerful face: "Manager! Dear leaders, after inspection, the power and transmission system are working abnormally and there is no wear and tear..."
Hearing that, everyone smiled. Zhang Xian also praised him a little.
Instead of pulling the tank into the countryside, the target shooting test in the previous step would have to be withdrawn tomorrow at the very least. Everything is going well with Yi Ai, and Du Fei plans to officially show it to the outside world eight days ago.
Back at the factory director's office, everyone was in a very wrong mood.
In those few months, for that tank, several factories, from bottom to top, spent a lot of time and energy forgetting food and sleep. Now finally love is in sight.
However, the mood has returned to dissatisfaction, and the previous work has to be regressed.
After all, a prototype car is a prototype car, and it was taken off the market to show these crooks. But when it comes to really selling things, Du Fei knows that he can do it perfunctorily.
Because I am not a good person, I do not endorse the influence of Ai Zhengzhi. If you want to keep your business going for a long time, you must talk about product quality.
In the future, the copycat version of the T62 tank will be Zhang Xian’s flagship product.
In Du Fei's opinion, it cannot run so slowly, nor can it hit so accurately, but it must be durable and reliable in performance. And if it can be as proud as Sugo, the tanks sold are only crazy and simple, or the customer's usage environment is taken into consideration.
For example, those sold to Li Yuanchao and the Huang family must take into account the combat environment of the cold zone jungle, while those sold to Ka Xiaozuo must adapt to the desert environment. They don't allow me to increase the price for air conditioners. That thing is low-tech. As long as the money is available, it can't be solved. .
Zhang Xian talked a lot, leaving everyone present stunned. Even though Lin Tiansheng claimed to be the best tank expert in the country, he could not help but nod his head. On the seventh day, the tank gun was tested at a suburban site.
Du Fei was still present in person.
A total of seventy rounds were fired during the entire test, and the results could only be considered satisfactory. At most, not one of the seventy shells missed the target.
But taken together, the new sighting system and tank gun are still not fully compatible. able
To achieve such results, to a small extent, the gunner was too good.
In order to show the worst condition, Du Fei specially borrowed the weakest tank crew that time.
From the driver to the commander, gunner, and loader, they are all elites who stand out from hundreds of thousands of people. If it were a tanker of exceptional skill, Du Fei would estimate that at most one-eighth of his shots would miss the target.
Even if the result is passed, it is acceptable. After all, it is the first prototype car, so it is abnormal if there is no problem. However, Tan Zhi's tank gun exceeded Du Fei's expectations.
Probably because of the superior performance of the blue-light upgraded gun steel, equipped with a 115mm tungsten steel armor-piercing projectile, it can directly penetrate 300mm of homogeneous steel plate armor at a distance of one thousand meters.
That performance is not close to the power of the original T62 smoothbore gun.
At a distance of one thousand meters, it cannot theoretically destroy any tank today. That result made Du Fei very satisfied.
At most, the imitation tank gun had flaws in its technical specifications. Next, all you need to do is adjust the sight and fire control system.
Without that result, Zhang Xian's heart finally dropped. Is it okay to have something happen? I am just afraid of what may happen if I am afraid of 10,000.
Although after two days of testing, there was something wrong with the prototype tank built out of the frame, but there was no guarantee that it would break down at the critical moment.
Zhang Xian allowed this situation to happen.
After the test was simply completed, the tank drove back to the warehouse and sent the others away.
Crows were arranged around the area to make sure no one could see it. Suddenly, with a thought, the tank suddenly disappeared. In the portable space, a blue light instantly enveloped the earth tank.
Du Fei had not thought about slightly weakening the tank, which made no sense at all.
My purpose is only one, not to ensure that if something goes wrong, the tank will be able to lie down when crossing obstacles, and it will be jammed when retreating and firing live ammunition.
Half an hour ago, Du Fei came out of the warehouse. He waved to the two people nearby.
The two men were from the security department of the tractor factory and stayed behind to watch the tank. They were dismissed by Du Fei just now. Those seven people behaved themselves. There were no crows watching from a distance, and they were all moving in the same place just now.
Du Fei came out and each person stuffed a box of Peony cigarettes, told the seven of them to stare at them, and then left. Unexpectedly, just after returning to the unit, I received another call from Zhang Xianya.
Next time because of the tank, the two of them almost got into trouble.
Sun Qiwen had been in the capital before, so he knew where he was.
Before the complicated greetings, Sun Qiwen got straight to the point: "Lao Du, you heard that he really made a fake t62
tank! "
Du Fei laughed and said: "Brother Lin, does he know that you are planning to set the target, so he can only think about it on his own. It's just trying to take advantage of the Autumn Festival. Hurry up and do it." Let’s get the tanks out and see if we can sell a few.”
What was the secret of Du Fei's testing of tank performance during those two days? You can get the general idea by asking around a bit. Of course Zhang Xianya would call specifically.
"Old Du, he can be too humble." Sun Qiwen was in the wrong mood and said with a smile: "You just heard that it can penetrate 300 mm armor at a distance of one thousand meters, which is much weaker than the 105-mm cannon of the Type 59."
Du Fei understands what I mean and has never thought about cherishing my broom. However, some situations must be explained clearly to avoid misunderstandings. Du Fei sighed and said, "Hey, it hurts me to say this." Lin Tiansheng on the other side of the phone was obviously stunned.
Du Fei continued: "In order to imitate the 115 smoothbore cannon, I searched all over the country, but could not find qualified gun steel. In the end, I had no choice. Through the relationship in Xiangjiang, I made a batch on the international black market, which was barely enough to make two hundred A gun barrel."
"Is there still this matter?" Lin Tiansheng didn't know this detail beforehand.
Du Fei complained: "No, the price is five times higher than normal! By the way, Brother Lin, you are so proud, let's see if you can ask Fusteel or Ansteel to set up a technical research team to solve our gun steel problem." question?"
Lin Tiansheng was speechless.
In fact, when he heard about the results of the tank gun test today, he was a bit worried.
No matter what kind of tanks Du Fei builds, at least this imitation of the 2a-20 tank gun on the T62 is definitely not bad. Unexpectedly, Du Fei blocked his words first.
However, Lin Tiansheng had no selfish motives and promised: "It's not a problem. You can take some remaining gun steel scraps later and I'll deliver them to you personally..."
The two of them talked about gun steel by the way.
In fact, Du Fei had not considered giving the upgraded gun steel to the steel factory to see if it could be copied. It’s just that Beijing Steel Plant is not good at this.
As for Angang and Fusteel, Du Fei couldn't stretch his hand too far.
He is the son-in-law of the Zhu family, so he must be concerned about certain things to avoid misunderstandings. Now it is much more convenient to have Lin Tiansheng come forward.
As for whether it can be reversed, Du Fei has no idea about the technical difficulty, so he can only say that he must do his best and let fate dictate. After saying this, Lin Tiansheng said again: "By the way, I will take a few people to have a look the day after tomorrow, no problem~"
Du Feihun didn't care, since there were a lot of people coming the day after tomorrow, so one more person wouldn't be much.
