Chapter 112

“Then you still pretend to be arrogant, looking like you are not bad for money?” Xie Kai rolled his eyes and despised Zheng Yucheng.

The performance of this guy is no different from that of a nouveau riche.

Zheng Yucheng was not embarrassed, “You said, if 617 knew that we cut them off, would it kill us?”

“At best, it will kill you. It has nothing to do with me.” Xie Kai didn’t bother to care about him.

This kind of person is more concerned about it, the more desperate.

“You went to Xiangjiang to collude with the Pakistanis.” Zheng Yucheng smiled.

“When did I collude with the Pakistani? Old Zheng, I have to be responsible for speaking. I went to Xiangjiang to see the colorful world of capitalism, inspect the market situation, find business for the base, and solve the problem of food for the base.” Xie Kai looked disdainful. “Who told us that the person in charge of the 404 base is too incompetent to solve the problem of food for the cadres and employees of the base…”

Zheng Yucheng lightly slapped Xie Kai’s head, “Even if I am incompetent, you know it in your heart, you have to say it!”

Xie Kai ignored him, thinking that the people of 617 rejected their plan in Pakistan and required the use of an image-stabilizing fire control system, only to find that what they didn’t like had become the key to determining the entire cooperation. How wonderful.

At this time, Luo Zhiyu was eloquently introducing their plans to the Pakistanis.

“…Extend the barrel to reach 42 times or 44 times the caliber of the 105mm rifled gun, although the caliber is smaller than the 125mm tank gun used by the T72. Increase the shooting speed and improve the propellant to increase the attack power…” The plan for the 617 base was to lengthen the barrel of the 105 rifled gun exported by the British to China.

Although it is clearly stipulated that it cannot be used for export, the improved technology is no longer the imported technology.

The imported 105mm rifled tank gun with 39 times the barrel is 44 times longer than the imported technology, and it is no longer bound by the agreement.

“Equipped with an improved Type 37 disturbance fire control system…optimized design of new protective armor…” Luo Zhiyu introduced their project plan vigorously.

Look at the reaction of Pakistanis from time to time.

He knew that the Pakistanis had no choice. The tanks supplied by the United States in the 1960s were no longer sufficient to solve the threat posed by the T72.

“Deputy Director Luo, I don’t think you understand our needs. Yesterday, we have already indicated to your superiors that what we need is a tank with three generations of performance!” Musharraf frowned and interrupted the other party. Introduction. “I think you should know what the technical standards of the three generations of tanks are.”

“Although our plan lags behind the third-generation tanks in overall performance, some indicators completely meet or exceed the performance indicators of the third-generation tanks, such as the 44-diameter 105 rifled gun with a long barrel. Although the caliber is smaller, as the barrel increases , The power of the artillery shells is improved, and the tail-fin stabilized armor-piercing shells can fully achieve the attack performance of the third-generation tank… The optimized protective armor can reach the defense force of about 550 mm of homogeneous armor…” Luo Zhiyu explained. “Don’t you want the best price/performance ratio?”

“We need tank guns with a caliber of 120 mm or more, equipped with stabilized fins, armor-piercing projectiles, armor-piercing projectiles, grenades and even artillery-launched missiles; we need more advanced composite armor; a more powerful power system; a command ceremony for the third-generation tanks as standard. Fire control system!” Musharraf solemnly emphasized their request again.

“The fire control system for commanding ceremonies is the basis of negotiations.”

For the Chinese side, the so-called “two-and-a-half generation” tanks with three-generation tank performance indicators. If the Pakistanis did not get the information in Xiangjiang, they might communicate with the Chinese in detail and then reluctantly accept it.

I originally thought that as long as it could compete with the T72 purchased from India.

They want more than T72.

Besides, Pakistan needs production technology.

“Lieutenant Colonel, I think you also know what these technologies mean. Even if we are willing to provide these technologies, how much money is needed?” Luo Zhiyu asked Musharraf.

“Deputy Director Luo, please don’t worry about funding. We need technology, the real sense of the third-generation tank technology.” Katchhead said calmly, “General Li, our request has been communicated before coming. If expensive Fang is unwilling to provide third-generation tank technology, please tell us directly.”

As one of the leaders of the Pakistani side, Katchhead felt that the Chinese side was fooling them.

Luo Zhiyu actually wanted to provide them with second-generation tank technology.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

The second-generation Chinese tanks are not even finalized!



“We are also conducting research in this area.” Li Mingshan said helplessly, “General, if we have the technology in this area, in line with the friendship between the two countries, cooperation is not a problem.”

“Yes, if we have, we will definitely support it.” Long Yaohua also nodded hurriedly.

“Two, we came with sincerity. Our president attaches great importance to cooperation in this area, and the Ministry of National Defense has specially prepared a large number of special funds for this project.” Mubara is equally serious.

The Chinese side is too insincere to cooperate.

Nobody’s funding came from the wind.

Besides, Pakistan is poorer than China, even if its per capita GDP is much higher than China.

“We are indeed very sincere. After receiving your government’s request, we specially organized a relevant technical team to integrate existing technologies and develop new technologies based on this, so as to form a project that meets your needs…” Li Mingshan didn’t understand why the other party was angry, “Did you hear any rumors?”

“We have some sources, not rumors. You have a command ceremonial fire control system in your country, but you are unwilling to provide it to us… Disturbing fire control systems can only be used for second-generation tanks, and they cannot fire during highly maneuverable marches. …” Mubara looked at Li Mingshan and said angrily, “The so-called two and a half generations you provide cannot even exceed the performance of foreign excellent second-generation tanks…”

“Our disturbing fire control system has just been introduced from the UK, and what we provide to you is improved and more advanced performance!” Luo Zhiyu said dissatisfiedly, “We do have an image stabilizing fire control system in China, and the technology is not outstanding. Nor has it undergone any target shooting experiments.”

Luo Zhiyu suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart.

Just yesterday, he personally handed over 201 to 404, which was a burden.

Now the Pakistanis actually proposed that a disturbed fire control system is necessary. Could it be that the 404 base hooked up with the Pakistanis from the beginning?

Even Li Mingshan had the same idea.

I thought it was a coincidence before that Zheng Yucheng could not come into contact with Pakistanis.



But now it seems that it is not a coincidence that can be explained.

404 people start too fast.

With such things, they have doubts in their hearts and know how, but they can’t speak out.

Long Yaohua and Li Mingshan looked at each other, and both saw helplessness in each other’s eyes.

With 404 deliberations, the difficulty for 617 to win the Pakistan tank project has been infinitely magnified.

“We only need a stable image fire control system, the real sense of the three generations of tank fire control! Otherwise, we have to fire, we can only stop, the attack speed will be very slow!” Musharraf said firmly.

“If you insist, we can give it to you, but for this kind of fire control system, our technology is immature and requires a certain amount of funding and time.” Li Mingshan’s first consideration is to win the project.

Even if 617 base wants to get this kind of technology, it is very difficult.

Luo Zhiyu frowned and looked at Li Mingshan, but also knew that if the entire project was lost because of a fire control system, it would be too cost-effective.

And it is still not taken seriously in the country.

“In terms of armor, we need excellent composite armor, plus reactive armor, which must reach a uniform armor thickness of 800 or more…” Musharraf continued to demand.

“As long as there is sufficient funds and enough time, it is not a problem.” Luo Zhiyu gritted his teeth and said.

The Pakistanis are simply admirable, and China itself does not have such excellent armor.

“Firepower system, 125mm tank gun, please don’t say that you don’t have one. As far as we know, your country once had a WZ-122 tank project and studied tank guns of this caliber…” Mubara smiled. .

The projects that China has abandoned are no secret to them.

When China abandoned this project, it asked Pakistan if it was interested.

At that time, Pakistan had no money, and there was no such powerful tank as the enemy T72 to pose a threat, so naturally there was no need for it.

“It’s easy to say if you have money.” Luo Zhiyu’s mouth twitched, trying to suppress his anger, so that he would not explode.

The Pakistanis in front of them are the gold masters.

“We need that the price of the entire tank is not too high and easy to maintain. It is best if some related parts are common to Type 59 or Type 69 tanks.” Katchhead said, “Our finances are very tight. If the price is Too expensive to equip too much.”

“General, you have any other requirements, please tell them all together. We will communicate and coordinate, and we will give an answer after evaluation.” Li Mingshan has already confirmed it, and Zheng Yucheng has absolutely surreptitiously contacted Pakistan.

The request of the Pakistanis was completely aimed at the third-generation modification of the 59 tank at the 404 base.

In other words, the 359 project of the 404 base is completely designed for Pakistan’s requirements!

“We hope to adopt an automatic loader, add hydraulic auxiliary systems, etc. The mechanical auxiliary system is too difficult to operate, and it is a severe test for the physical strength of our soldiers.” Mubara said.

“General, what is your budget and time?” Luo Zhiyu was already on the verge of anger.

“According to our national defense needs, we hope to be able to provide samples for testing in three years; the price of each tank does not exceed US$1.6 million, to help us upgrade domestic tank factories, so that we have the production capacity to manufacture such advanced tanks…”

“General, it’s not dark yet!” Luo Zhiyu laughed angrily. “Where is there such a cheap thing to spend 1.6 million US dollars on a three-generation tank? We will purchase on a large scale in China!”
