The aircraft carrier formation passed through the Strait of Malacca, which is a golden waterway connecting the Pacific and Indian Oceans, and is also an important channel for East-West communication.

Back then, Zheng He visited the West several times and stayed here. Now, with the prosperity of maritime trade, it has become an important channel.

Haziz looked at the scenery of both sides of the Taiwan Strait of Malacca. This is a strategic location. If Pakistan can control it, it can ensure that the exchanges between Pakistan and China are unimpeded!

"The pictures sent by the Chinese reconnaissance satellites, all the missile boats at the Vietnamese naval port have sunk." At this moment, Hussein reported to Haziz.

The Pakistani Navy has been far away from Vietnam and can't reach the carrier-based aircraft. Everything there is observed through the Chinese reconnaissance satellite. Therefore, although the explosion has already happened, it will take several hours to find the answer until the reconnaissance satellite passes there.

Looking at the pictures taken, Haziz nodded repeatedly: "Good, beautifully done!"

Last night, the frogman teams had already returned to the aircraft carrier and separated from the Chinese nuclear submarines. Both sides returned to their respective flights.

The Vietnamese ports have very weak defenses and do not have advanced listening equipment, so frogmen can easily succeed. Of course, this is also related to their lack of prevention. This tactic can only be used once, but it will not work the second time.

In modern warfare, reconnaissance satellites will play an increasingly important role. The road to modernization of the Pakistani army is a long way to go. For example, reconnaissance satellites are still blanks, and these gaps will be filled by Pakistani technicians one by one.

Pakistan's aircraft carrier formation followed the route back to Pakistan, and in Pakistan, Islamabad Mhamad was patrolling the shooting range with great enthusiasm.

This is a shooting range for light weapons. At this time, there are a variety of guns that are being shot.

There are Chinese Type 56 and 81 Types, American M16, various guns from Western Europe, and shooting sounds on the shooting range.

"This is the Type 56 submachine gun we have the most equipped." Mhamad picked up a gun, and Musha Af next to him said to Mhamad.

Type 56 submachine gun! This is a classic rifle produced in China.

When China was just liberated, the troops still used the Wanguo brand weapons, mainly the Type 53 insurgent and cavalry rifles. The Japanese Type 38 rifles and the American M1903 Springfield rifles had different calibers and different performances, which brought great difficulties to logistics. Therefore, after China's liberation, the first task was to produce a standard rifle to replace the army across the country.

At that time, China and the Soviet elder brother had a good relationship, and the Soviet elder brother provided comprehensive assistance to China. China's weapons development also started from the basis of comprehensive introduction. Various technical data, production equipment and even samples were directly imported from the Soviet Union.

At that time, the most famous thing in the Soviet Union was the rifle in front of us. China almost introduced a complete set of production lines, and it was finalized in 1956 and began mass production, named it Type 56.

This gun was replaced in large numbers with Chinese troops. Due to the tactical ideas at that time, this gun was positioned as a "submachine gun". It is a weapon for team fire support, and is used to provide close-range suppression firepower.

"It's actually the Soviet Union's AK-47 rifle." The person in charge of Pakistan's light weapons explained to Mhamad.

Hearing this, Mhamad couldn't help but shake his head: "ak-47? Then do you know the akm rifle?"

ak-47. This is a rifle that everyone in the world talks about, but people all over the world call it wrong. The ak-47 is just a transitional rifle designed by Kalashnikov, and the output is not large. Later, Kalashnikov improved the use of a riveting receiver instead of the 3rd milling receiver of the Ak-47, which greatly reduced the production cost. Moreover, the new stamping receiver is lighter than the 1st stamping receiver of the Ak-47 and the 3rd milling receiver of the Ak-47. The improved Akm weighs only 3.15 kilograms. This gun has been passed down for decades and has become a famous rifle. The 56-rush in front of me are all made of Akm, not Ak-47.

When Mhamad asked this, the person in charge of light weapons around him suddenly turned red: "Report to the president, because ak-47 is the most popular name. If I say akm, I am afraid you don't know, so..."

Of course, the person in charge knew about it, but was afraid that the president would not know about it.

Musha Af patted the person in charge on the shoulder: "Naras, our president has been struggling on the battlefield. I don't know how many times you have used this weapon. You tell the president that it is the most professional, don't be like an amateur."

Mhamad was very familiar with these guns. After all, he, as a special forces personnel, used all kinds of excellent rifles at home and abroad, and knew all the best of these features.

After 56 rushed to equip the troops, he participated in the Vietnam War. It was of high quality and low price, and was very popular in the third world. It is called Huaxia AK. However, like its prototype, the biggest disadvantage of this gun is that the huge recoil energy produces strong vibrations when shooting, especially when shooting, it is difficult to control the shaking of the gun body, the shooting accuracy is poor, and the weight is too high.

It is OK to shoot a shuttle of bullets, but if you want to hit the target accurately, you have to go through rigorous training, and this kind of gun has long been out of date.

Mhamad just looked at the gun and put it down again.

On the shooting position next to him was a new gun. Mhamad went over, picked it up, and skillfully aimed.

"This is the latest Type 81 rifle developed by China, and it is one of the recommended models among our candidate guns this time." said the person in charge.

Type 81 rifle! This rifle was developed in 1979, designed and finalized in 1981, and officially put into mass production in 1983. The Laoshan Frontline at that time confirmed the serious shortage of Type 56 rifle, so the goal of the development of this gun was to replace the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle, Type 56 submachine gun and Type 56 light machine gun that was being equipped with a squad gun. After the development was successful, the front-line troops were equipped as soon as possible, and it confirmed in actual combat that this was a weapon with excellent performance, with good accuracy, reliable movement, and easy operation and maintenance. Later, the Chinese troops changed a lot, and almost became the standard equipment of the front-line troops.

Compared with the Type 56 rifle, the biggest feature of this gun is that it uses a short-stroke piston-type air guide system, which reduces vibration and greatly improves shooting accuracy. It has both the high accuracy of the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle and the large firepower of the Type 56 submachine gun. During the Laoshan battle, two Type 81 automatic rifles were used to suppress the holes of the enemy bunker at a distance of more than 100 meters, making it impossible to open fire.

However, this gun still uses the 7.62mm bullet of the Type 56 rifle. Now, the international trend has begun to reduce the caliber size. NATO's standard is 5.56mm caliber, while the Soviet Union has 5.45mm caliber. After years of comparison, China officially decided to use a 5.8mm caliber small-caliber automatic rifle in 1978. Therefore, the development purpose of this Type 81 gun family was to provide a transitional weapon before equipping with a small-caliber rifle. Unfortunately, the 95 model in later generations was not powerful, which led to the troops still prefer the Type 81.

Small caliber is the trend. Although the mid-caliber such as 7.62mm warhead has a greater kinetic energy, a stable trajectory, a long range, and a stronger penetration. Moreover, the ballistics of small caliber bullets are greatly affected by the outside world, such as wind and jungle leaves, the small caliber rifle has a smaller recoil, high accuracy, light ammunition, and it is easy to flip and not easily penetrate after hitting the human body, resulting in a greater lethal effect, so the lethality formed is even greater, so small caliber is welcomed.

More importantly, it is the carrying capacity of the infantry. The 57-n-1s type 7.62mm ordinary bullet used in the AKM weighs 16.3 grams; while the ss109/m855 type 5.56mm ordinary bullet used in the M-16 weighs 12.4 grams. In this way, if the 5.56mm ammunition can carry 1,000 rounds, the 7.62mmak bullet can carry 760 rounds. In infantry combat, the bullet consumption is very fast. Therefore, carrying more bullets is equivalent to an extra layer of insurance.

As for the problem of poor long-range attack capabilities, it can be achieved through snipers in the infantry squad. Each infantry squad has a sniper who can use a 7.62mm caliber sniper rifle or even a 12.7mm sniper rifle to play a role in long-range killing.

One of the recommended models among candidate guns! This sentence from Naras is also meaningful. Now, various industries in Pakistan are developing rapidly, civil and military.

Therefore, Pakistan's light weapons should be in the process of renewal. By choosing a practical gun, introducing independent production, and changing them in large quantities, becoming the standard weapon of the main force of the Pakistan Army is also a key content.

Although rifles are not valuable compared to aircraft, tanks, etc., the number is huge. All the troops of hundreds of thousands of troops are replaced, which is also an important national defense expense, so you must be cautious.

Due to its special relationship with China, Pakistani personnel also tend to use China's weapons. They have studied this Type 81 rifle for a long time and used it as one of the backup solutions.
