Chapter 298 Fatty's Joy (Part 2)

"What about other projects?" Guo Tailai was also aroused, and then asked: "What about high-energy explosives, liquid body armor, military exoskeletons, and rocket launchers?"

"The A200 rocket launcher is about to enter the stage of live ammunition testing." Zhao Xiangbei did not hide this from Guo Tailai. Although Guo Tailai hadn't paid attention to the project before, the A200 rocket launcher was Guo Tailai's design after all, so it is understandable to let him know the progress: "Wait After measuring more detailed parameters, it can be finalized with a little adjustment.”

"Great!" Guo Tailai was sincerely happy. The A200 appeared so many years in advance, which is enough to lead the world in some aspects and form a certain deterrent force. These are all good cards in Huaxia's hands. The more good cards there are, the more confident the country will be in speaking internationally.

"There are no key breakthroughs in other items yet, but the iron meteorite you brought back from the crater has discovered several super alloy formulas." Zhao Xiangbei looked at Guo Tailai with anticipation on his face: "I'm going up Please apply and see if you can disclose the properties and parameters of these superalloys to you, which may help some of your processing."

"Great!" Guo Tailai made an exciting movement with his arms bent, and then touched the can with Zhao Xiangbei again: "It's good if there is a material breakthrough. The material for the sniper barrel last time, alas, don't talk about it. To increase strength, what high-density metal did you add? It’s so heavy.”

"Actually, except for the weight, the performance of that gun is pretty good." Zhao Xiangbei didn't seem to be surprised that Guo Tailai mentioned the barrel, Guo Tailai mentioned the sniper barrel, and he also discussed this topic: "It's just that the processing cost is a bit high."

"It's not my fault." Guo Tailai hastily shied away, what he wanted was a high price, but it can't be said that he is the only one who can process it in the whole country, right? Are so many high-precision machine tools imported for fun? What's more, there are so many skilled masters: "You are in a hurry, in fact, you can finely polish and take the opportunity to improve the precision processing capability. In this area, especially in large-caliber sniper rifles, there is no particularly powerful one in China. Model, right? It’s completely possible to make a breakthrough.”

"Are you not interested?" Zhao Xiangbei looked at Guo Tailai and asked with a half-smile.

"Busy with exams, not in the mood." Guo Tailai was actually very interested, but he still kept Zhao Yanyan's words in mind, he couldn't be in a hurry to come up with good things, so he refused decisively: "Besides, this thing is not a simple matter of mechanical processing. There are many related subjects later, such as ammunition, scopes, materials, etc., and various calculations, I will definitely not be able to handle it.”

"You're right." Zhao Xiangbei agreed with Guo Tailai's words: "Large-caliber sniper rifles are indeed a weakness in China. Sometimes we look at other people's guns and are really greedy!"

"In fact, the existing small-caliber sniper rifles in China are enough for the time being. How many occasions do we need to use large-caliber?" Guo Tailai echoed: "At the current stage of domestic overall strategic defense, small-caliber is the mainstream. Come on, don't worry."

When I communicated with the 95 chief division last time, I also learned why China chose such a unique caliber ammunition as 5.8mm. In addition to not adopting the US-Soviet standard and retaining the power to reduce the caliber, there is another point that the overall domestic strategy adopts a defensive defense. Even if the enemy attacks the mainland, it is impossible to obtain logistical support in the domestic mainland, and can only be sent through expensive supply lines. solve. Under this strategic policy of keeping a low profile and bide our time, there are actually not many large-caliber sniper rifles available for the time being.

However, this does not mean that there is no need in the country. But as Guo Tailai said, this is not a simple problem of mechanical processing. A series of problems have not been solved, and Guo Tailai can only look away, unless he just wants to copy a certain ready-made one.

"Do you know about the street fighting in Grozny, Chechnya?" Zhao Xiangbei asked, and without waiting for Guo Tailai to answer, he said directly: "Of the more than 300 people of the Russian 131st Brigade who entered the city center, 70 were killed or injured. Only one officer and 10 soldiers of the motorized infantry regiment escaped the city center alive. The snipers played a huge role in this.”

"I've heard of it." Guo Tailai nodded and said, "It's a meat grinder."

There is one thing that Guo Tailai didn't say. A few years later, there will be more tragic street fighting in Grozny. 75% of the soldiers died under the guns of snipers, even Major General Malofeev, the Russian army's front-line commander in Grozny, was no exception. In fact, the street fighting in Grozny was a sniper war.

"Our country's peacekeeping forces sometimes face the same danger when performing missions in foreign theaters." Zhao Xiangbei looked at Guo Tailai and said, "A bullet will fly from nowhere, which is very dangerous. If our soldiers With high-caliber sniper rifles, maybe it's less of a threat."

"I think it's wrong for you to think of using snipers to deal with snipers at this time." Guo Tailai pointed out the mistakes in Zhao Xiangbei's words without hesitation: "Peacekeeping troops did not participate in the war in the past, nor did they take the initiative to attack. What they need most is not domestic sniper rifles, but an anti-sniper detection system that can quickly detect snipers in time."

"What's the matter with this anti-sniper detection system? Tell me in detail." Zhao Xiangbei suddenly became interested, pulled the stool closer, and said to Guo Tailai.

"Ah?" Seeing Zhao Xiangbei's posture, Guo Tailai knew that he had said the wrong thing again, so he just pretended to be stupid: "Ask me? That's all I said, just trying to find a sniper thing."

"How did you find out exactly?" Zhao Xiangbei looked at Guo Tailai pretending to be stupid with contempt on his face.

"Uncle Zhao, I'm just a student of precision instruments, and I also learned some surgery and acupuncture." Guo Tailai smiled wryly: "You asked me such a professional question, did you find the wrong person? You are looking for a professional! You let me I can make a few barrels, this is really not my strong point."

Zhao Xiangbei looked at Guo Tailai and found that he was helpless, but he didn't say anything more after all.

"Fatty, what technical requirements do you need for the rocket with a higher range that you are talking about?" Zhao Xiangbei changed his tone, turned directly to the rocket, and asked about the rocket with a higher range.

"Generally speaking, if there are no major problems with the production materials, then better propellants, control systems, and engines are needed." Guo Tailai pondered for a while, and quickly replied: "I can help with the engine, but the launch I really have nothing to do with the medicine and the control system."

"Propelling powder?" Zhao Xiangbei thought for a while: "I'll go back and look up the information, maybe we can ask Teacher Zhang from your school to see if he has made any breakthroughs."
