Chapter 105 Continue Testing (Part 1)

"Is there something wrong with the radar monitoring?" The commander-in-chief also asked in a hurry to the test team with a look of disbelief.

"The radar monitoring is normal!" The operator of the monitoring team replied after carefully looking at it several times: "The data of several base stations along the way show that there is no problem."

"Is it because the warhead counterweight has not been added?" The commander-in-chief still couldn't believe that such a "shoddy" rocket launcher would have such power, it was simply impossible! So he immediately suspected that someone was cheating, and yelled at the technicians of the Precision Machinery Institute and the Nanfang Institute.

"It's been added!" A technician from the South Institute hurriedly replied loudly: "Commander, you see, there are only three counterweights here, and that one has indeed been added. And the sensors are all on it. Don't pretend?"

There are real things, but if they are not here, they must have been launched, and this thing cannot be faked.

But neither the staff at the shooting range nor the technicians from the capital could believe the test results, or rather, couldn't believe it, nor were they willing to believe the results. Anyone who picks them out will always look like they have seen a ghost.

What is the range of the best domestic rocket launcher?

The Type 83 273mm rocket launcher has a range of only 40 kilometers, and the fire control system is relatively backward. Although the range has reached the target, the troops are not satisfied with its performance. The improved WM-80 successfully developed in 1995 has a range of 80 kilometers. The Defender 1, the WS-1 rocket launcher, which was successfully developed almost at the same time as the WM-80, has a range of 90 kilometers, but it is only half the same as the old Maozi's tornado rocket launcher.

But the problem is, this is already the most advanced rocket launcher in China! The maximum range is only 90 kilometers!

This is also the decisive reason why everyone can't believe the test results just now, especially those high-level people who know the truth, including the commander-in-chief.

A little girl who has just graduated, even if she graduated from Mizuki University, no matter how talented she is, but before that, she only worked on an inertial navigation gyroscope, and it was the first time she touched a rocket engine. It only took two months to make A rocket launcher with a maximum range of 107 kilometers came out. Who is kidding who?

"Did the sampling helicopter take off?" the commander-in-chief asked loudly unwillingly.

"It's already taken off!" Someone over there immediately replied: "It will take up to fifteen minutes to reach the landing site and recover the sensor!"

The warhead counterweight is not just the warhead counterweight, there are also some sensors inside, which will record a lot of data during the launch process, such as acceleration, acceleration time, flight time, etc., so that technicians can find problems or further improve the design based on these data.

Hearing that the helicopter had taken off, the commander-in-chief finally woke up from that manic state. Whether it is true or false, the landing point will definitely not be false, and the helicopter will know the true and false by recovering those sensors when it arrives.

Compared with the quick and calm commander-in-chief, the technicians of the Nanfang Institute and the Seiki Institute are already going crazy. What is the situation? They collectively thought that something like a child's play house broke the record for the maximum range of a domestic rocket launcher casually?

The South Group has rocket launchers, which are the Type 83 273mm rocket launchers and the improved VM-80 mentioned earlier. As for the Guardian series, they are products of precision machinery. The design team that Zhao Yanyan joined was actually to improve the shooting accuracy of the Guardian 1 rocket launcher. Who would have thought that Zhao Yanyan would design a rocket engine?

Everyone thought that Zhao Yanyan was joking, even if Gu Yunpeng didn't engage in those secret things, the Institute of Precision Machinery would not agree to the launch of Zhao Yanyan's rocket engine, that is the territory of precision machinery. The reason why the technical experts of the Nanfang Institute discussed Zhao Yanyan's design plan may not have the idea of ​​trying to make a comeback in it.

But the technicians at the Nanfang Institute didn't completely trust Zhao Yanyan. Everyone thought that Zhao Yanyan's design was just a design. Who would have thought that Zhao Yanyan would risk leaking the secret and find an outsider to do it?

What makes the faces of the technicians on both sides even hotter is that they are just two people, a female doctor who has just graduated, and an undergraduate student who has not yet graduated. In January, they made a rocket engine that they had failed to break through for decades.

Although this test used the latest propellant and flight control system, so what? Who would have thought that the range would exceed the existing record? That's right, it's definitely not just the function of the rocket engine, the overall design of the rocket body, balance, flight control, navigation, command system, launcher, and even the charge are all decisive factors in it, it must be so.

This must be the credit of the collective, and the proportion of rocket engines will never exceed 20%. It must be so, and it must be so! Otherwise, if the two institutes add up to thousands of people, wouldn't they all have nothing to eat?

Almost everyone in the know wants to characterize this way, but the pride of being a technician prevents them from doing so. Is that really the case? Everyone is in technology. How much improvement has been made in various aspects of the design of the cooperation between the two parties this time, who can still not know? Even with a technical conscience, they can't say such a thing!

"Report to the commander-in-chief!" There was a report from the communication group: "The helicopter has arrived at the radar monitoring point, they have found the rocket body, they have successfully opened the warhead, recovered the sensor, and are quickly taking the Send the sensor back!"

The rocket body was found at the landing point of the radar monitoring, which meant that their previous guess that there was a problem with the monitoring was unfounded. The warhead was found and the sensor was retrieved, which also proved that the counterweight had indeed been installed, and there was no problem of weight reduction and launch.

This also means that the range of 107 kilometers is the maximum range of a real rocket, and it is definitely not everyone's dream, let alone cheating.

It's also impossible to cheat, launch here, pick up the projectile warhead there, and there is no aircraft in the middle that can bring things over, is there any other way besides flying over by yourself? So, this range is the real deal.

After confirming this, the team leader of the Southern Office went straight to the communication group and asked the communication group to immediately connect to Director Zhao's office in the capital.

Zhao Xiangbei has been waiting in the office all morning, almost never leaving, and can't do other things on his mind, just waiting here for the phone on the desk to ring. Finally, after he suffered for more than two hours, the phone finally rang.

"I'm Zhao Xiangbei!" The first thing Zhao Xiangbei said when he answered the phone was to announce his family name, and then he was silent for a while, and then he screamed out, "How much? How much did you say?"
