Military industrial hegemony

Chapter 54 The New Type of Firearm Appears

A few days after the new year, Jiang Chen is going back to work. The whole year is very interesting, and let Jiang Chen, a later generation, see many things that he has never seen before.For example, what is called "hands-on-the-flyover"? It's very interesting. In this era, there was a wave of nationwide martial arts practice, and there were a lot of hand-to-hand games on the streets. Especially during the few days of the Chinese New Year, people had no other entertainment, so This kind of performance is everywhere in the streets and alleys.Jiang Chen was dumbfounded when he saw lion and dragon dances, stilt walkers, waist drum dancers, and martial arts performers.

Many of these projects are very real and dangerous, and you may die on the spot if you are not careful.This may not be too much commercialization, unlike later generations who are all aiming at fame and fortune, and show off after learning a little bit. In comparison, it is simply unsightly.Jiang Chen doesn't understand why these skills are lost. Maybe this is the result of marketization. People are making money, and few people can endure the loneliness of practicing hard in the mountain gate. With the help of these masters one by one After death, these skills will disappear. (Author: Can I use this stalk to open a martial arts book? Anyone who wants to write it can take it. Just give me a good trick.)
Closer to home, Jiang Chen returned to the B17 factory and began to intensify the research and development work.Now the time is very tight, they have to complete the export equipment performance inspection before the Ministry and the Commission of Science and Industry and send it over. After getting the approval, they can load these weapons on the ship and transport them to Tieba, and then go to participate in the defense exhibition.Many people will ask, why not walk?Because it is organized as a whole, there are some heavy equipments, and the roads are not easy to travel, so they are all transported by sea.Moreover, the transportation at this time is not as developed as the road transportation network in later generations, so it is very difficult to travel.

Now that the sniper rifle and bazooka are ready for display, Jiang Chen has designed some accessories and modifications with desert characteristics.For example, Jiang Chen changed some of the high-precision 2-type sniper rifles, bazookas and rockets from the original army green paint to desert gray paint, and specially made gun bags sewn with desert camouflage cloth for them. This can not only facilitate portability but also prevent the entry of sand.Thereby increasing the adaptability and competitiveness of the equipment.

In fact, another reason for Jiang Chen to do this is to take the opportunity to sell his camouflage uniforms. This is Jiang Chen's purpose. He can't take advantage of guns and bazookas, at most he can get some bonuses.And the money from this sale fell into his own pocket.For this reason, Jiang Chen asked Fatty and Dongzi to start supervising the production work of the service company, and Jiang Chen also went to guide them.Since Ma Jun is already the deputy chief of the B17 security department, he is now busy with Zhang Sai who came back from visiting relatives. The first time I met Ma Jun and mentioned this name, Ma Jun also had a wry smile on his face.So now arrange for Fatty to take the lead, with Dongzi assisting.

Because the printing and dyeing lines needed regular operation and maintenance before, a lot of finished fabrics have been accumulated, so now they are stepping up sewing. This time, Jiang Chen redesigned a lot of camouflage uniforms and accessories, just for this defense exhibition.Jiang Chen also put in a lot of effort, all kinds of military uniforms and equipment from later generations were thrown in. For this reason, Jiang Chen and the others specially contacted a manufacturer that had just produced steel helmets for our army, and got back more than a dozen steel helmets. The requirements are intentionally not painted on.The purpose of Jiang Chen's taking it back is to modify it and cover it with camouflage cloth so that it can match with the military uniform.

With regard to firearms, it has reached the final stage, and experiments have now begun.Judging from the results of the current test response, the designed performance of the entire gun has come out, and it can be finalized on the substrate.This is the prototype gun.All future revisions will have to revolve around this.

The next thing to do is to systematize. This prototype gun is only the basic type, that is, the ordinary type. Now we need to develop other deformed models based on it.For example, the carbine type used for assault and street fighting, it needs to shorten the length of the barrel in order to be able to shoot freely in narrow spaces.

For example, the precision type used for precise shooting has a much longer barrel than the basic type, in order to prolong the time of the bullet in the barrel to improve accuracy, although the accuracy of the basic type of this gun is already very high.Of course, it is much different from the developed sniper rifle, because the combat functions are different, the sniper rifle must be above 400 meters to exert its power, and this gun is used for point shooting within 400 meters, for shooting important targets .Moreover, the accuracy range of this gun is more than that. After a certain degree of training, it can guarantee the accuracy of 600 meters.The difference from the basic model is that this gun only has a semi-automatic mode. Unlike the basic model and the carbine, the shooting mode can be adjusted. The reason for this is still for accuracy, because the vibration caused by continuous shooting will definitely affect the accuracy.Of course, Jiang Chen wouldn't be so stupid. Overlapping the combat functions of the sniper rifle and the gun here would waste resources. Why make one for the money that can earn two guns?
Another example is the machine gun type used to suppress firepower. The biggest difference between it and the basic type is the thickened heavy barrel.Because it needs to carry out continuous fire suppression and coverage shooting, it is required that the barrel can not be deformed after the high temperature caused by continuous shooting.The barrel life of the basic rifle is 6000 rounds, while the barrel life of this type of machine gun may reach more than 15000 rounds, so that it can more effectively adapt to the increasingly fierce battlefield environment.

This is easier said than done, but thanks to the participation of the team that developed the sniper rifle before, it was able to proceed smoothly.Although this is very difficult, it is not as demanding as the requirements of sniper rifles, so Jiang Chen adopts a half-mechanical and half-manual production method, so that it can be mass-produced after receiving the order.

After a period of hard work, the first batch of test firearms of these guns has finally been developed, and they are quietly placed here, waiting for everyone's review.

"Xiao Jiang, is this the new type of rifle you produced?" Chen Guorong looked at the strangely shaped rifles in front of him and asked in confusion.

"Yes, this is the new squad weapon system that we have developed through hard public relations efforts during this period." Jiang Chen introduced these guns with a smile.

"What are these bars?" Xu Shijie asked, pointing at the gun body.

"This is the guide rail device I designed." Jiang Chen said with a guilty conscience. He kept silent in his heart. I'm sorry for the Picatinny guide rail. I'll use it first.

"Oh? Guide rail! What is it for?" Xu Shijie asked curiously.

"This guide rail is for fixing these accessories on the gun." Jiang Chen picked up a gun and pointed at the accessories on it and explained.

"Is it these things?" Chen Guorong picked up a gun and pointed at the tactical flashlight on it and asked.

"En." Jiang Chen nodded. It took him a lot of effort to make this tactical flashlight. He wanted to find an ordinary flashlight and modify it casually, but it was too big and difficult to install. The brightness is not high and the range is not far. What's more, the bulb inside is extremely easy to break, especially when the vibration generated by shooting is even more so.In the end, Jiang Chen took a few high-brightness light-emitting diodes from his father's research institute to solve this problem.Of course, the whole process is expensive. Jiang Chen wants to apply for a patent for this. Of course, it doesn't matter in China. Let alone the fact that there is no patent law yet, even if there is a patent law in China, it is useless in China.This mainly depends on foreign countries, whether they can have this opportunity to apply for this patent.

"What do you want this flashlight for?" Chen Guorong asked again.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Chen felt a little distressed with a black line on his forehead: "Uncle Chen, this is specially designed for night combat. Didn't we hunt a lot last winter? It's very troublesome to search for prey with a flashlight and a gun at night. , It will soon be much easier to fix it like this. So I thought about whether our night operations are the same, so I designed this. Don’t look at this small flashlight, but it took us a lot of work.”

"Oh, this is a good idea." Chen Guorong admired but was a little puzzled and said, "Isn't it fine to fix it directly on it? Why do you have to make it like this?"

"This is to adapt to the variety and flexibility of accessory equipment. According to different tasks and environments, various accessories can be installed to assist soldiers and fight more powerfully. As for the design of these cones and grooves, they are positioning points for various distances. In order to allow other accessories to be installed and fastened to it so that they are not easy to fall off, and to adjust the distance of each part according to the needs of each fighter, so as to achieve higher combat effectiveness." Jiang Chen patiently explained one by one while holding the gun.

"Oh? That's it." Lu Chunyang, a military representative at the side, said in surprise.He took a gun and watched it carefully, like a hungry cat watching a fat fish.He sized it up and asked, "What is this?"

"This is a laser launcher, which is used to assist aiming." Jiang Chen looked at Lu Chunyang and said helplessly.Well, this is probably a meat bun again, this military representative is really conscientious.

"Oh, that's it, then what's this below, a bazooka?" Lu Chunyang said while holding the grenade launcher below.

"This, this is a snap-on grenade launcher specially modified from the old American M79-style 40mm grenade launcher in order to increase the firepower of the soldiers." Jiang Chen said with a smile.This M79-style 40mm grenade launcher was discovered by Jiang Chen in the organization's statistical warehouse some time ago. I heard from the old man that it was seized from the battlefield when he was helping the Southern Man against the old Americans and sent it to various factories for imitation. I don't know why. It was put in the warehouse, and now Jiang Chen took it out and transformed it into this.

"Haha, it's really yours. You probably can figure out how to tie a cannon to a gun." Xu Shijie looked at Jiang Chen and joked.

"But can this be done?" Chen Guorong frowned a little uncertainly, the idea is bold enough, but is this a bit of nonsense?

"No problem, just try it and you will know." Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Then what are you waiting for, let's start!" Lu Chunyang said urgently.

"Then let's start!" Jiang Chen laughed.

PS: Sorry, last night the right shoulder near the scapula felt a little numb and uncomfortable. I found out that it was caused by incorrect code word posture after checking online.I rubbed a little safflower oil and barely coded a chapter. I hope the "real work" in this chapter can make amends for everyone!I don't know if everyone looks happy!It’s cool, and please support me a lot. There are still people who were scolded by some buddies in the book review area a few days ago. Do you all go to swipe the screen to praise it!Also, please support us a lot, and continue to hit Sanjiang this week!Collection, ticket!Reward!Come on!
