Zhu Yusheng emphasized that after the R&D expenses increased, he began to throw dates to avoid Lao Ba’s lack of confidence and finally losing his business.

After waved, a technician with glasses took out a drawing of A0 size and hung it on the wall hanging on the long end of the oval conference table.

Liang Yuan was jumped when he stared at this simple line diagram. Even though Liang Yuan didn't care much about army equipment, in addition to counting wheels, he could still clearly see the appearance of several beautiful appearances of the Republic's tank turrets.

The linear shape of the turret in front of me is not welded with the mbt2000 or VT1 type of wedge-shaped front armor based on the 85-2 type. The 85-2 type tank turret exported by the Republic to Pakistan can clearly see the traces of the elliptical cast turret of the Soviet-type tank. The appearance of the turret of the mbt2000 type tank is basically welded with two pieces of front inclined armor based on the 85-2 type. It looks quite terrifying at a distance, but when you look closely, it is actually two pieces of reaction armor folded in half and welded on the surface of the 85 turret, which is so rough that it can't be more rough.

If Liang Yuan did not admit his mistake, the product on the drawings would definitely be the resurrection of the VT4 turret. Although the tank's sighting equipment cannot be reflected on the drawings, it is probably different from the VT4 type, but "

I'm fucking, is Lolikan going against the will? Liang Yuan felt like he was suddenly struck by lightning. Northern Industry has taken too much. Mr. Zhu, are you sure you are not fishing?

Liang Yuan didn't know that if FAW hadn't created the gem power pack of the cross fork, Northern Industry would have signed a contract with the Pakistani military long ago.

After learning that Pakistan's strong recognition of the 85-2 tank and intends to continue to cooperate with the Republic to develop a main battle tank against India's Arjun, Northern Industry has developed four upgrade plans based on the 85-2 tank.

Plan 1: Based on the original 85-2 model, the power system is replaced to increase the tank power from 730 horsepower to 1,000 horsepower, and the basic plan of upgrading the tank power from 730 horsepower to 1,200 horsepower, upgrading the power of 125 artillery, and installing the basic plan of the gunner on the trans-observation system.

Plan 2: Install FY series additional armor based on Plan 1 to improve the protection level of basic protection upgrade plan.

Option 3: Based on the 1st, the 85-2 turret is improved and improved, and the performance enhancement plan is to install the vehicular captain on the reverse circumferential sight.

Plan 4, Install the performance enhancement and protection upgrade plan of FY series additional armor based on Plan 3

However, there is currently no 1,000 horsepower tank diesel engine in China. At this time, the Republic's international diplomatic situation is very embarrassing, and it is difficult to order foreign power manufacturers.

In the end, when the power system is uncertain, Northern Industry chose the No. 3 solution, first making every effort to optimize the tank's aiming performance that does not occupy much power, and relying heavily on the armor protection of the power system to take into account the rear. The No. 3 enhancement solution directly led to the birth of the very copycat style front oblique armor of the mbt2000.

In fact, if Liang Yuan had not been able to choose the upgrade plan of the northern industry, it could be described as the four words of far-sightedness. The selection process of the mbt2000 tank power core was extremely bumpy. The English, France and Germany in Europe were all gone for various reasons. In the end, it was due to the collapse of the Soviet Union and imported tank diesel engines from Ukraine.

For the Republic, the sequelae of choosing the No. 3 plan was that in 1996, the Pakistani military spent US$650 million to order 320 T80ud tanks from Ukraine, and the Republic's military industry lost a large piece of fat.

If the Republic could handle even a 1,000-horsepower tank engine early, the Pakistani military would definitely consider the possibility of importing t80 tanks from Ukraine from the perspective of logistics unification.

After the addition of FAW, things began to become completely different.

The standard output power of the domestic gem power pack of FAW is 822kw. In special circumstances, it is allowed to operate safely at 844kw for one hour. Since the tanks on the ground are no more than those of the plane floating in the sky, even if the gems are required to take drugs, it will not exceed ten minutes. This means that the maximum output power of the gem can be regarded as 1147 horsepower. Although there is still a gap from the final target of 1200 horsepower, the technical difficulty of overcoming this gap is almost negligible. A small version of the engine upgrade and strengthening is enough to handle it.

When the power system is determined, it is easy to determine the armor level of the tank within a certain range. If you pay attention to mobility, you can choose a thinner armor. If you pay attention to protection, the highest off-road speed will be slower. It depends entirely on the tank designer to weigh the pros and cons.

In fact, after Zhu Yusheng and Li Yuanling had a long communication and understanding, they believed that Li Yuanling said that the maximum power of the FAW gem series in the future could reach 1200kw.

1200kw is equivalent to 1600 horsepower. In Zhu Yusheng's opinion, this power gem is enough to be used as a main battle tank before 2050.

After confirming the installation of the gem, Zhu Yusheng, who knew that the power was rich, directly chose the No. 4 upgrade plan, which was to make major changes to the 85-2 tank, maneuvering, firepower and protection all of them were redesigned and strengthened.

Then, someone saw the birth of vt4 in advance.

The name of the tank under development is different from that in Liang Yuan's memory. It is not called mbt2000. As for VT4, it was not even a shadow, but changed to the code name of Storm 21. The meaning of the code name is very obvious and straightforward. The code name of the 85-2 tank in the Republic is Storm 2, and now it has been changed to Storm 21, which clearly means that the new tank under development is facing the 21st century, with great ambitions and even obvious.

On both sides of the tank's three-dimensional sight map, a series of data were written in large fonts. After being shocked, Liang Yuan carefully read the two rows of data with great interest.

The total combat weight is 51 tons, the length is 9.8 meters, the width is 3.5 meters, the bottom ground clearance is 0.38 meters, the 125 mm smoothbore gun, the front of the welded turret is equipped with modular large-angle wedge armor, the maximum road speed is 75 kilometers per hour, the internal fuel tank is 1,260 liters, and the maximum travel is 485 kilometers~~~.

Liang Yuan didn't know that considering the fuel consumption of the gas turbine, Zhu Yusheng increased the thickness of the vehicle body and turned the original 0.46-meter ground clearance to 0.38 meters, saving space to become a fuel tank.

For soldiers, talking about weapon performance is almost a favorite, especially when you don’t have to consider the budget, it can be so cool.

Since the sketch was hung on the wall, the two Pakistani army officers have temporarily been in a similar state.

It is obvious that this sketch plan should have been brought by Zhu Yusheng from Baotou. Since Tieling Base is basically unable to do other work except for power experiments, Zhu Yusheng is not here most of the time.

However, in order to obtain first-hand information on gas turbine operation, the two old bas chose to sit in Tieling base. This is why FAQs led by Li Yuanling is extremely confident. If other manufacturers in the Republic do not dare to do this. If the test is always lost in front of customers, wouldn’t it be a waste of the signboard and the transaction?

Of course, the confidence that FAW dared to do this was the basis of the series of data on the Long March 3. Although the operating environment on the railway was not as good as tank off-road from an extreme perspective, it was not much better.

The operation of the Gem Power Pack on the Long March 3 is not a matter of several hours. It is often encountered for 24 hours of long-distance tests. It is often used to receive periodic vibrations on the rails for a long time. It is definitely not easier than off-road than on-road.

The two officers must have seen the new tank plan that Northern Industry had previously released. After asking Zhu Yusheng a few questions, they stopped sitting in their original position. They walked to the wall with sketches together, standing on the left and right sides of the drawings like a door god. They held the pen in their hands when they were just taking the record and asked Zhu Yusheng a lot of questions to the line drawings on the drawings.

Due to the excitement of emotions, the two Lao Bas spoke significantly faster, so Liang Yuan had to calm down his emotions, throw the inherent impression of VT4 and other things aside, and concentrate on corresponding translation issues.

This technical exchange meeting with a slightly more product launch event continued until five o'clock in the evening. Chief Engineer Zhu Yusheng met the two old bachelors who were curious like babies.

When Zhu Yusheng announced that the exchange meeting ended, it was obvious that the two Pakistani army officers were extremely satisfied with the new tank plan brought by Zhu Yusheng. After walking out of the main entrance of the conference room, they did not forget to pay tribute to Zhu Yusheng's thumbs up.

Seeing the two old bas leaving the conference room, Liang Yuan rubbed his tight forehead and relaxed the nervousness of his brain just now due to his concentration in translation work.

"My master, our job is not bad."

After packing up the information on the desktop, Zhao Tianshi smiled and pointed to the three views of the Storm 21 Tank hanging on the wall.

"It's not just good. I was shocked when I saw the drawings. Compared with the five-wheeled cars outside, it was like an alien product."

With someone's age and the corporate culture that Liang Yuan has been trying hard to establish, he can't pretend to be deep or not to show his emotions. Therefore, Liang Yuan never stings with compliments from below.

"Brother Zhao, although I don't know much about land armored vehicles, from the exchanges and analysis between Mr. Zhu and two Pakistani officers just now, the tank indicators in that picture should be quite high. Can it be completed in the end?"

"Whether the indicators can be completed depends mainly on us. As for the international development trend of tank power, it is already a general trend for power contractors to be responsible for the transmission system, so Mr. Zhu plans to connect with the international project in Pakistan and subcontract the entire transmission part to us."

"If you don't want to say anything else, at least Huachen's equipment is countless times better than the northern industry in Baotou. We can easily find the special metal smelting on some transmission components to complete it. If it is replaced by the northern industry, the young master will see if Mr. Liang is in the mood to take care of them."

Liang Yuan laughed and felt that his uncle, who was already busy, could not have the heart to deal with any Pakistani tank project.

"Because Pakistan has not locked in technology yet, Chief Secretary Zhu has not yet discussed the contract for transmission components. However, I heard from Chief Secretary Zhu that since India's next generation of main battle tanks have been offline, Pakistan has made up the determination to reach this time to find a new equipment that can fight against Arjun's main battle tanks."

"Since Arjun's indicators are very high, the profits will be very generous once this contract is taken down. According to Chief Manager Zhu, this order is likely to be a contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars."

After hearing what Zhao Tianshi said, Liang Yuan also vaguely remembered that Pakistan seemed to have signed a big contract with Ukraine in the 1990s.

"I said why did Mr. Zhu choose such a difficult new solution? It turns out that he is aiming at the overall replacement of Pakistan's next generation of main battle tanks."

Liang Yuan remembered India in his previous life and always liked to set equipment indicators, such as Brown's sporty fire missiles, glorious fighters, etc. Just looking at the data would definitely scare a lot of surrounding countries.

Liang Yuan and Zhao Tianshi were having a good chat, and Zhu Yusheng, who was on the side, sent out all the technicians around him.

Since the Storm 21 tank is a new plan in Baotou, people from Tieling Base have never seen it. As a result, when the new plan appears today, countless technicians, like Liang Yuan, were stunned by the technical span of the new plan.

Liang Yuan knew that it would be easy for the future Republic to complete this plan. He was also shocked that Liang Yuan felt that he had a big step and was afraid of being nonsense. But the engineers in the conference room were shocked that he had big steps and had a high goal, so the project might be completed.

As a result, when the two Pakistani officers left, they surrounded Zhu Yusheng.

Fortunately, Zhu Yusheng had a very high prestige in the entire tank project team. After briefly explaining the reasons for choosing the Great Leap Forward in Technology, he held a meeting two days later to unify the team's thoughts before temporarily ending this matter.

The reason Zhu Yusheng gave when facing the team's questions was similar to what Liang Yuan guessed. If the technical indicators were set low, he would probably not be able to get the big contract for the Pakistan Army to change clothes. After all, the Pakistan Army imagined the enemy, and the data of the Indian Arjun main battle tank was placed there.

Seeing that there was no one around Zhu Yusheng, Liang Yuan planned to go over and say goodbye and take a bus back to Shengjing. As a result, before Liang Yuan could get over, Zhu Yusheng came directly.

"I have to thank Comrade Xiao Liang for his help today. If you hadn't played the same-simultaneous translation, this might have been going until midnight." Zhu Yusheng smiled heartily, and then said with a loud voice.

"Old Zhu called me Liang Yuan or Xiao Yuan, and it is a rare opportunity to exercise English in a high-intensity context. In fact, it should be me who said thank you. Mr Zhu was not afraid that I would mess up bad things, so he just let me go to such a big scene. However, I have been away from Comrade Xiao Liang for many years, and at least I have to graduate from college and work before I can advance to that title."

Liang Yuan also replied with a smile.

"I heard Lao Wu say that you should not look at you with an ordinary eye, nor should you measure it by the level of ordinary teenage students. At first, I was a little unbelievable, but now I find that Lao Wu is right at all. If you can do simultaneous interpretations in China, Xiaoyuan should not be humble."
