Siheyuan: Originally I just wanted to be a little transparent

Chapter 287 is a lesson learned from blood and tears

After another period of praying, begging grandpa to sue grandma, the huge orange lottery plate finally slowly stopped.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for receiving the combined reward, an SVD sniper rifle, an SVD sniper rifle upgrade and transformation technology, and acquiring skills to become proficient in firearms shooting technology."

In this lottery, if it is a single SVD sniper rifle, even if it is paired with this complete set of design drawings, it is completely an item that should not appear in the orange lottery tray, because it is a bit too cheap.

This SVD sniper rifle is a product of Mao Xiong's family. After this gun came out, it was widely used in various troops of Mao Xiong and was equipped with one for each squad.

This SVD is considered by the Mao Xiong family and subsequent countries that use this gun to be a semi-automatic sniper rifle with many advantages, especially its high reliability, which is unanimously recognized by everyone. (Bear's small arms are generally considered very durable.)
But in Lin Shengli's view, even though Mao Xiong calls this SVD a sniper rifle, in fact, compared with Western weapons of the same period, it is not even a bit different.

The SVD designed in 63 may be more appropriately called a precision shooting rifle.

As for why Lin Shengli believes that the newly designed SVD is not a pure sniper rifle.

Well, we have to start with the origin of this gun.

During World War II, Mao Xiong used the Mosin-Nagant rifle as a sniper rifle, and many sniper heroes were born.

However, the experience of World War II taught firearms designers that on the battlefield, what is needed is not long range, but intensive firepower.

So after the end of World War II, the famous AK47 came into being and later became popular all over the world. Although the AK has a range of only 300 meters, it has powerful firepower and reliable performance.

However, in this way, the combat distance of the infantry squad is limited to less than 500 meters. They are somewhat helpless against enemies even further away.

Therefore, in 58, Mao Xiong proposed the idea of ​​designing a semi-automatic sniper rifle. It required improving shooting accuracy, and it must ensure that the weapon could work reliably in harsh environmental conditions, and it must be simple, lightweight and compact.

The Mao Xiong army selected the sniper rifle designed by Dragunov in 63 to replace the Mosin-Nagant sniper rifle. After further improvements, it began to equip the troops in 67.

SVD was born under such circumstances.

This rifle was designed for squad-level sniping and long-distance fire support.

Its emergence has increased the effective range of the infantry squad to 800 meters. However, if it is further away, due to insufficient accuracy, whether it can hit it depends on luck.

The SVD's longest sniper kill record was set in 85 by a sergeant of the Mao Xiong Army during the Ah Mou Khan War. He killed the enemy commander at an ultra-long distance of 1350 meters.

However, this is purely luck.

Just like in 2017, Wali, a great sniper from Jia on the Yimouq battlefield, used a TAC-50 sniper rifle to set a sniper kill record of 3540 meters, but that cannot be used as a reference at all.

When it comes to sniper rifles, I am afraid that everyone’s first reaction should be to think of the famous Barrett.

But in actual combat applications, it is the TAC-50 that creates most of the long-range sniper results.

The AC-50 sniper rifle can easily kill enemies 2000 meters away, but if it is further away, you can only pray and let the bullets fly for a while. As for whether it can fly to the enemy's head, who knows!
Speaking of these, we have to mention accuracy. MOA is an important way to measure the accuracy of a sniper rifle. Specifically, at a distance of 100 meters, 1MOA means that the bullet lands in a circle with a diameter of only 2.908 centimeters.

The accuracy of the SVD sniper rifle is 1.24MOA, and if ordinary bullets are used, it will be as high as 2.21MOA.

An advanced sniper rifle must have an accuracy of at least 0.8MOA, and an excellent one can even reach 0.5MOA.

Later, during a counterattack against a certain Vietnamese monkey, our rabbit seized the SVD used by the Vietnamese army, so we used this trophy to carry out imitation design, and finalized the Type 79 sniper rifle in 79.

Later, on the basis of the Type 79, it was significantly upgraded and transformed, and the Type 85 sniper rifle that everyone talked about was developed.

I originally thought that this Type 85 was already a very good sniper rifle, but later, when I communicated with the West, I was completely dumbfounded.

Our own precious weapon is like a fire stick when compared with other people's weapons!

Whether it's range or accuracy, this is several levels behind!
You know, when this gun was copied in China, there was no special sniper rifle ammunition. Instead, ordinary machine gun bullets were used, with an accuracy of up to 5.87MOA!

To put it simply, SVD is a large AK rifle with an extended barrel.
When our front-line troops used this kind of gun, they did not use it to snipe the enemy, but to suppress fire from a long distance...

Based on the above reasons, I now understand why Lin Shengli believes that if only such a gun and related information are given, it will not be worthy of the orange lottery board.

Fortunately, it is equipped with an upgrade technology for SVD.

Lin Shengli did some research. According to the technical information provided by the system, isn't the modified SVD the 85 sniper that I later developed?

But Lin Shengli studied it carefully and found that this was really different.

According to the upgrade information, except that the appearance is still similar to that of SVD, all other aspects have been comprehensively upgraded and improved.

After drawing the prize, Lin Shengli, who got a prototype gun and improved transformation technology, immediately ran into the space and started fighting.

First, the SVD sniper rifle provided by this system was dissected into eight pieces, and then he used flat glasses to scan each component.

After that, based on the upgrading and transformation technology gained from the lottery, I began to draw an upgraded version of the SVD sniper rifle, which was the relevant drawings of the famous Type 85 sniper rifle that my rabbit later equipped.

But this time, Lin Shengli directly avoided all the problems in the design and manufacture of the 85 sniper in the original time and space.

The next day, Lin Shengli took the drawings he had drawn of the improved Type 85 sniper rifle to Uncle Su's house.

For someone like Mr. Su, who has come through the war, he is both a tactical and strategic person and a person who plays with guns.

Lin Shengli didn't use too many words. He just spread out the relevant drawings and briefly explained the parameters and usage scenarios of the sniper rifle he designed.

Mr. Su immediately understood the importance of this sniper rifle.

"Shengli, if you bring these drawings, do you want me to hand them over to the superiors?" Mr. Su asked after reading the drawings Lin Shengli brought.

Lin Shengli nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Su, but not now."

Hearing what Lin Shengli said, Old Man Su looked at Lin Shengli in confusion, waiting for Lin Shengli's next words.

Lin Shengli continued: "Uncle Su, that's what I think."

"If we just hand over the drawings, some departments will have to hold meetings to repeatedly demonstrate, trial-produce, test after they are finished, and then conduct discussions and research."

"In the end, it might be a few years before this gun can be finalized and equipped with troops."

"Moreover, if there is something wrong with any of the links in the middle, then this gun will be stillborn." "To put it bluntly..."

"As for those people, who have designed such a gun, or in other words, who have seen such a gun."

"Give them the design drawings to demonstrate. Do they understand the argument clearly?"

"Uncle Su, I have full confidence in the gun I designed. I think there is no need to let others make irresponsible remarks about it."

"So I think we might as well make a few prototype guns on our own first. After we conduct the tests ourselves, and when we have detailed actual test data, we will submit them to the superiors together with the technical information, prototype guns, and test records... …”

Lin Shengli said this not to show off his power, or to have any objections to those military industry workers engaged in firearms design.

You know, sometimes those who do the argumentation are not necessarily those pure military workers who are obsessed with technology.

And some of these people, I don’t know what kind of thoughts they have, so that it is obviously a very good and very advanced project, but it is delayed until the technology is backward, so that your project can be launched...

What's more, your project has been put on hold indefinitely!
These are the lessons learned from blood and tears in previous lives!
In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, Lin Shengli simply built it himself and tested it himself.

When there is no real object, even if the superior leaders and Mr. Su have confidence in Lin Shengli, if someone interferes with it and talks about a lot of big principles from the technical aspect, the superiors and Mr. Su will not be able to do it from the technical aspect. Make a rebuttal!
Do we have to bring Lin Shengli over to have a live battle with those people?
Lin Shengli didn't want to see the faces of those people. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold back on the spot, go up to a few big fights and beat those people to death.

But as long as the real thing is created, those people can't open their eyes and tell lies, saying that this is not good and that is not good, right?

It’s not like the superiors and Mr. Su have bad eyesight. They will know whether something is good or not once they try it.

At this time, even if those people have evil intentions, their superiors will not believe them if they tell lies.

After hearing what Lin Shengli said, Mr. Su also nodded thoughtfully.

Mr. Su also understands Lin Shengli's worries very well.

Because he has also encountered such a thing.

Obviously there are some things that everyone is very approving and optimistic about, but those who oppose it just find some relevant experts for you, use professional terms that everyone does not understand, and make everyone lose confidence.

But for this kind of thing, you have no reason to cause trouble for others because of their high-sounding explanation.

Mr. Su is very optimistic about the sniper rifle designed by Lin Shengli.

But I can't stand it. If I just hand over the drawings, the things that Lin Shengli is worried about might really happen.

Simply speaking, Mr. Su also supported Lin Shengli's idea very much, so he just made a few prototype guns first.

"Shengli, since you think it's necessary to get a few prototype guns out first, then go ahead and do it. If you need any support, just tell me." Old Man Su said decisively.

Lin Shengli nodded. This was one of the main reasons why he came to see Mr. Su today.

On Old Man Su's desk, Lin Shengli found paper and pen and made a list of required materials for Old Man Su.

The next day after leaving Old Man Su's house, Lin Shengli plunged into Workshop [-] of the steel rolling mill and started working.

This busy schedule lasted for several days.

Because in the past few days, Lin Shengli was not only busy making this kind of firearms, he was also busy with other things.

So, after working hard for almost a week, Lin Shengli called Mr. Su: "Uncle Su, it's done."

Mr. Su, who was reading documents in the office, immediately stood up from his desk after hearing Lin Shengli's words on the phone and said with a serious expression: "Okay, wait, don't let anyone come into contact with you before I come." and stuff.”

"Okay." Lin Shengli replied.

Old man Su, who put down the phone, ordered the staff around him to take the people with him and immediately headed towards the steel rolling mill where Lin Shengli was located.

In front is Old Man Su's special car, and behind is a truck covered with a tarpaulin, with a team of heavily armed soldiers on top.

The two cars, one behind the other, soon arrived at the steel rolling mill where Lin Shengli was located.

Most of the employees in the factory are accustomed to the presence of military vehicles in and out of the factory.

After all, in their factory, they often receive orders for the production of military artifacts assigned by their superiors.

This time, he is probably here to pull some processed workpieces or something.

After getting off the car, Mr. Su entered the tenth workshop with only two of his personal guards, namely Lin Shengli's old acquaintances, Xiao Li and Xiao Wang.

In the truck at the back, the heavily armed soldiers once again set up a post at the door of Workshop [-].

After entering the tenth workshop, Mr. Su went straight to the small cubicle where Lin Shengli stored his things.

Outside the cubicle door, Xiao Li and Xiao Wang were on serious alert.

Touching several brand-new sniper rifles on the table, Mr. Su couldn't put them down.

"Shengli, have you tried the gun?" Old Man Su asked while stroking his beloved gun.

Lin Shengli smiled and said, "No, I just took out these guns and just checked and calibrated them."

"Isn't this waiting for you to come over and try the first shot?"

Old Man Su nodded and said, "Okay, that's right. You know how to leave such a good thing to me."

"Come on, I can't wait now. I want to try the sniper rifle that we independently developed and produced."

Under the escort of heavily armed soldiers, Lin Shengli and others, led by Mr. Su, went to a shooting range of a certain army stationed near Sijiu City.

In order to have a more intuitive comparison, Mr. Su asked the person in charge here to fetch several Mosin-Nagant sniper rifles and Type 56 semi-automatic rifles equipped with scopes.
