Dominate South Asia

Chapter 386 New Tank

Mhamad, who was far away in the east, quickly received news from Rick. The negotiations in South Africa were going very smoothly and the South Africans were very friendly.

This is a huge progress. What Mhamad wants is not just to transform Mirage 3 and armed helicopters. What he values ​​most is those technicians. There are only a few years left before the apartheid policy in South Africa ends. When the black people When people start to take power, the life of white people will be difficult. At that time, the best choice for these technicians is to come to Pakistan and continue to develop!

At this time, Bai Xue was still having dinner with President Mhamad. For an ordinary scientific researcher, this was a great honor.

When eating, you must be gentle, don't make any noise with your mouth, and chew slowly.

When she was at work, Bai Xue, like everyone else, was used to finishing her meals quickly without wasting time to work. But now, she eats quite slowly.

"Baixue, pay more attention to rest." Hamad said while eating.

"It's too boring to stay in the hospital." Bai Xue said: "President Hamad, do you have any other plans for your trip?"

Upon hearing Bai Xue's question, Mhamad ignored the adjutant shaking his head and said, "Tomorrow, we will go to Inner Mongolia for inspection."

Inner Mongolia! Hearing this, Bai Xue's eyes suddenly flashed with longing: "President Hamad, can I go with you? The sky is blue and the wilderness is vast. I really want to go to the grassland to see it."

"Okay, but your doctor must allow you to leave the hospital," Mhamad said.

"Of course it's no problem. I'll go through the discharge procedures when I get back." Bai Xue said, "I've long been tired of staying in that room, so why don't I come here to see you tomorrow morning?"

"I'll send someone to pick you up. You're just passing by anyway," Mhamad said.

"Great!" Bai Xue said very happily, with those black eyes. Looking at Hamad, his face began to turn rosy, still pure and charming.

At this moment, Hamad really wanted to close his mouth, but he was the president and couldn't do such a thing, otherwise it would escalate to a diplomatic incident.

After finishing the meal, Bai Xue left like a bird. Mushaaf, who accompanied Mhammad, said: "President, you are so ill-considered. Our trip is secret. How could you Let an ordinary technician know."

"It doesn't matter, it's very safe here." Mhamad said: "This Bai Xue has made great contributions. The flat-plate gap radar we need most was copied by her."

Mushaaf still shook his head and could not deny it.

There is another important thing when going to Inner Mongolia, which is to visit the new main battle tanks developed in China!

in the hereafter. The development of the 99 tank was extremely difficult and required a high-horsepower engine. Advanced fire control, suspension, none of these, that is, the tank gun can still be used. Even so, when the one-armed commander accepted the task, he still took up the banner of development and went through difficulties to successfully finalize this main battle tank. Since then, the country has also had first-class main tanks, which is something to be proud of for a country with a traditional continental army.

Now, thanks to the relationship with Pakistan, these problems have become easier to solve. Pakistan has been able to manufacture German 1,500-horsepower engines and gearboxes. At the same time, Pakistan has recently acquired advanced production lines for infrared imaging night vision devices and optical sighting systems. As long as Pakistan has it, it is equivalent to what it has in China.

therefore. At present, prototypes of domestic main battle tanks have been developed. Test runs are in progress.

In fact, even the 99 tanks of later generations only took two or three years to design and produce. A lot of time was spent in testing, from the cold places in the extreme north to the hot places in the south, from the north to the cold places in the north. From the desert to the plains of the east, constant testing exposed a large number of problems, and then continued to improve. The one-armed commander relied on one arm and climbed up and down countless times before finalizing this tank.

But now, the development path of this kind of tank has become much smoother.

Bai Xue was very excited when she returned to the hospital. She looked at the few clothes in her luggage and felt dissatisfied with any of them. She wanted to go out and buy another set, but time did not allow it. It was so dark, and all the stores must be closed. When she saw the military uniform at the bottom, Bai Xue suddenly had an idea. Although she was going to inspect it, it must be a military-related facility. She couldn't wear it too casually. Military uniform was the most suitable!

She took out her military uniform and gestured on her body. In order to set off her slim body, she should change it again! So, I picked up my needle and thread and started doing it.

When it was 12 o'clock, Bai Xue was finally satisfied after putting on the fitting military uniform.

On the endless prairie, a horse galloped on it. On the horse's back was a young man in national costume. He was waving his whip and running towards him quickly.

Bai Xue held the flower basket she had just braided in her hands and walked towards the other party. The horse gradually came closer. The young man riding on it looked so familiar. Isn't it President Hamad?

When the horse came close, President Mhamad reached out his hand to Bai Xue. Bai Xue handed his hand over. When the other party pulled it, Bai Xue got on the horse and sat next to President Mhamad. Two big hands came over from the front and behind her and hugged her body. Suddenly, she felt her face turn red to the roots of her ears.

"Bai Xue, Bai Xue." A voice came from her ear.

Bai Xue was very excited and just wanted to agree, but she felt that the voice was wrong.

"Bai Xue, Bai Xue, dong, dong." The voice was very loud, and it seemed to be accompanied by knocking on the door?

Bai Xue opened her eyes and saw that the sun was shining outside. Oh no, it was dawn!

"Bai Xue, the motorcade is downstairs, are you in there?" A voice came from outside.

Damn, I overslept! I actually let President Muhammad wait outside!

So, Bai Xue got up quickly, put on clothes, washed her face, and then ran out.

After getting in the car, Bai Xue looked at the familiar face and quickly said, "Sorry, I overslept."

"I told you not to work overtime. Did you design something last night?" Muhammad asked, "You must pay attention to rest."

"Well, I know." Bai Xue agreed. Last night, it was really not for work.

Looking at Bai Xue in a green military uniform, Muhammad also felt his eyes brighten. Her clothes were so stylish.

The convoy went straight to the airport, took a special plane to Inner Mongolia, and then went straight to the shooting range of Factory 617.

Sitting in the car, looking at the scenery outside, Bai Xue was also deeply fascinated. It was really the same as what was said in the book, the wind blew the grass low and the cattle and sheep were seen.

"Boom!" Suddenly, a loud noise startled her, and her body involuntarily got into the arms of Muhammad next to her.

"It's just **." Muhammad said.

Bai Xue blushed and hurried out of Muhammad's arms.

In later generations, ** is a special noun, but at this time, ** is still very pure, just firing shells.

When the convoy stopped, there was already someone waiting for Muhammad there. When Muhammad got off the car, the first person he saw was the one-armed chief designer.

"Welcome the President to inspect us." said the one-armed chief designer. He was so grateful to Muhammad. Without Muhammad, how could the main battle tank be developed in such a short time?

Next to him was the director of Factory 617, who also shook hands with Muhammad cordially.

"I came here this time just to see our main battle tank." Muhammad said: "I heard that the initial design has been completed and the test run has been carried out?"

"Yes, it is being tested. A total of four prototypes have been built and will be back soon." said the one-armed chief designer.

"Boom, boom." The roar of the engine sounded in the distance. Muhammad looked over and saw a steel monster moving quickly.

One, two, three... six, seven, Muhammad counted and there were seven pairs of road wheels below!

Historically, the domestic 99 tank was improved from the T-72 tank, using a six-pair road wheel structure. Now, Muhammad has seen seven pairs of road wheels, which shows that the chassis of this tank is closer to the Leopard 2 tank chassis.

There are many debates about the advantages and disadvantages of six pairs of road wheels and seven pairs of road wheels. Among the mainstream tanks of later generations, not many countries use seven pairs of road wheels, mainly Germany's Leopard 2 and the United States' M1A2. The rest of the Challenger, Leclerc, etc., still use six pairs of road wheels.

Among them, the six pairs of road wheels have a larger diameter, and the seven pairs of road wheels have a smaller diameter. For example, the domestic 59 tank has five pairs of road wheels, which is even larger. Many people say that the number of road wheels is related to the weight of the vehicle. If it is heavy, seven pairs are needed. However, the Challenger is not light in weight, and it still uses six pairs. The important reason is not the weight of the vehicle, but the length of the vehicle.

If the body is long, the spacing between the six pairs is too large, so it is naturally seven pairs.

In later generations, domestic main battle tanks have always followed the Soviet path, completely evolving from the T-72, so they use a six-pair road wheel structure. Now, the situation has changed a lot. Through a Leopard 2 tank provided by Pakistan, after surveying by domestic experts, it was finally decided to use a chassis similar to the Leopard 2.

After all, the engine and gearbox have a great origin with the Leopard 2. It is most appropriate to use the Leopard 2 chassis. The Germans have excellent design capabilities. Since they chose this, they have their absolute reason.

The chassis uses almost the same structure, but the turret above is different. (To be continued ~^~)
