Chapter 349: Heavy Tank Research Institute

Still the bull devil.
Send them directly to Steel City.
This is the largest steel production base in my country. World-famous.
Well, or the biggest ever.
Many research institutes are also here.
Peng Deming took Wang Bu'an to the front of an old courtyard.
A plaque hung on the wall beside the entrance of the courtyard. It says XX Machinery Factory. Like a closed factory.
After going inside, I felt desolate. Overgrown with weeds.
Five people came out of the old bungalows on both sides when they heard the sound of the car. Its appearance is ugly. Unremarkable.
"This is 406 Design Institute."
"They specialize in heavy tanks."
Peng Deming introduced to Wang Bu'an.
Wang Buan nodded calmly.
What a design institute specializing in heavy tanks. It feels lifeless. It's a complete settlement.
The five people who came out were a bunch of nerds.
I feel that the myopia of the five of them totals more than 10,000 degrees. (10 eyes^_^)
If you look closely, you will find that their age is actually not that big. At most, they are in their thirties. It's just that they are highly myopic, thick beer bottle glasses, and plain clothes, making them look very old. Coupled with the surrounding shabby vicissitudes of environment, it will appear that they are all so old. It feels totally depressed. There is no vitality.
Extending a little bit, their image is like the manufacturing industry in the entire Northeast. Dying and lifeless.
Wang Buyan is also involved in a lot of business. I feel that I have not encountered any Northeast enterprises.
It is estimated that there are too few private enterprises in the Northeast. They all start with the national prefix.
Of course, those with the prefix of the Chinese character look down on Tyrannosaurus Rex Industry.
Inadvertently discovered that there was an acquaintance among them.
Wu Maoguan. From the 846 Institute. Mainly to study the power of tanks and armored vehicles.
Why is he here?
"Master Wang!" Wu Maoguan said enthusiastically.
"Hello." Wang Bu'an nodded.
"He was specially called by me to participate in the research on the Apocalypse tank. He is mainly responsible for the design of the power system." Peng Deming explained, "I originally wanted to invite Professor Cai to come, but unfortunately he was not interested in the Apocalypse tank and did not want to participate. I had no choice but to retreat."
"Is Professor Cai really not interested?" Wang Bu'an asked suspiciously, "Isn't his thinking the most active?"
"Professor Cai told me that the Apocalypse tank is of no practical use."
"He said that directly?"
"Yes. He repeatedly emphasized to me that the Apocalypse tank has no value in actual production. The weight alone severely limits its mobility. It crushes the road and collapses the bridge."
"He was actually right."
"You think so too?"
"of course."
Wang Bu'an nodded affirmatively.
Of course, he knew the most about these shortcomings of the Apocalypse Tank.
How many bridges can afford a full weight of 110 tons?
Not to mention those bridges that may cut corners. Even if it is the Yangtze River Bridge, if it is ravaged by a team of Apocalypse tanks, it is estimated to be very hanging.
Among the 100 bridges, not necessarily one can bear the weight of 110 tons.
Even if there is, it is a very significant goal.
If war really breaks out, they are the first targets to be destroyed.
Once these strong bridges are not there, then the mobility of the Apocalypse tank will be severely hampered.
Fortunately, Wang Buyan's original intention was not really to deal with war.
It is estimated that the three wars will not be easy to fight.
Everyone has nuclear weapons in their hands, and the possibility of a big fight is very small.
Most of them are partial conflicts of interest. Small-scale high-intensity war. Everyone deployed high-precision weapons. A fatal blow.
It seems that the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s has been fought for so many years.
More often, it is a peaceful show of force.
A soldier who fails without a fight.
For example, military exercises.
For example, military competition.
Among them, the most important one is to show powerful weapons.
The Apocalypse tank is just one of them. Regardless of its practicality. I will do it first, and then I will scare you.
Certain superpowers can't scare them. But is it always okay to deter others?
If some jumping clowns are too special, they can't rule out giving them one or two sharp surgical operations.
Targeted strikes.
Fixed-point removal.
Of course, that is a matter for national leaders.
He only needs to do his best to make comprehensive use of resources and technology to enhance the deterrence of weapons and equipment.
Peng Deming briefly introduced the situation.
406 Research Institute has never been mainstream. It has always been a side door.
Research on heavy tanks has not been smooth. No results came out for a long time. The main reason is the previous two points.
First, there is not enough motivation.
Second, the weight exceeds the standard. Seriously affect mobility.
In the eyes of many military leaders, heavy tanks are almost equivalent to mobile turrets.
There is not enough room for maneuvering.
It can only be within a certain relative range.
Instead of developing heavy tanks, it is better to develop large-caliber howitzers.
For example, the 203 mm howitzer.
For example, a 155mm vehicle-mounted howitzer.
Why waste precious research funds on a completely impractical apocalypse tank?
Under such ideological guidance, the status of the 406 Research Institute can be imagined. Don't say it has grown. It's not bad to survive barely.
Currently, there are only four technicians left in the entire 406 Research Institute. It's the unwelcome one that was pushed out.
Before they came to the 406 Research Institute, they had no idea that there was such a unit.
After coming to the 406 Research Institute, I also felt that I had nothing to do.
Don't know what to study.
I don't know where to start.
I don’t even know where to get my salary. Many jokes were made.
"The superior of the 406 Research Institute is Northern Shipbuilding Industry." Peng Deming said slowly, "At the beginning, it was mainly for researching large-caliber naval guns. Later this task was undertaken by other research institutes. The 406 Research Institute was temporarily vacant. . I have coordinated. Since then, the 406 Research Institute has been disbanded on the spot and assigned to the 220 Research Institute."
"Your burden is very clean!" Wang Bu'an said dissatisfied.
"You can apply for research funding from the top based on the increase in headcount," Peng Deming said in a low voice, "In your name, Wang Bu'an, you can have as much as you want."
"I want 50 billion! Do you have it?"
"Why do you apply to see it? Maybe it really does."
"roll!"
Wang Buan said angrily.
This Peng Deming is too sophisticated. No wonder people in the old army don't like him very much.
Hao Yanan obviously didn't want to see Peng Deming.
Lu Fengwu and Qiu Yunsheng also seemed a little cold. There must be a reason.
Otherwise, the soldiers are the most important of love and justice, and will not make a difference easily.
However, soldiers are generally more straightforward. I hate the people who are deep in the city most.
Peng Deming is playing the Mingxiu plank road.
Or is it resurrected by borrowing a corpse? Or is Li Daitao stiff?
On the surface, I gave myself a 406 Research Institute, but in fact, I had to use the 220 Research Institute's sign to act.
In the name of the 220 Institute, restarting research on the Apocalypse tank is obviously the most satisfactory thing.
Peng Deming's smile was a bit awkward.
Of course he knew that this matter was not easy.
After all, it is definitely not that simple to restart a project that has been sentenced to death.
Except for Wang Bu'an, no one else can do it.
Only Wang Bu'an can turn decay into magic. Only then can you turn stones into gold.
Many people say that the Apocalypse tank is useless.
But what if it works?
What if Wang Bu'an develops it?
The Apocalypse Tank is not static. It can be improved according to the requirements of the times!
For example, air defense tasks in the new era are more important. Then you can increase the power of air defense weapons! If you feel that two barrels are unnecessary, you can cut one! Or maybe it feels like two barrels are not enough, it is not impossible to install three barrels.
Everything is man-made.
As long as Wang Bu'an is willing, there is nothing he can't do.
Maybe, he can put wings on the Apocalypse tank, which greatly improves its mobility!
How did the mecha in the TV movie come from?
Hasn't it been developed on the basis of the Apocalypse Tank?
"Master Wang, hello, my name is Zhonghui."
"Hello there."
Among the four technicians, the leader is called Zhong Hui~EbookFREE.me~ The reason for the leader is entirely because he is a serious graduate of Tsinghua University in physics. Learn rich five cars, full of economics.
Unfortunately, he was not very popular in his original unit.
He himself did not want to be popular.
As a result, he was transferred to the 406 Research Institute.
Others may not like the old and shabby 406 Research Institute. Zhonghui felt indifferent. Quiet here. The interpersonal relationship is simple. just.
What he likes most is to study Three Kingdoms. Only in this way will he be ashamed of his name.
Wang Bu'an and Zhong Hui discussed several physical issues.
Zhong Hui's response was quick.
There may be no talent or something. But the basic theory is very solid.
Don't look at him being addicted to Three Kingdoms all day. In fact, I have a good understanding of vacuum catastrophe, quantum mechanics, and extra dimensions.
In the age when the Internet was developed, he actually found a lot of rather rare information.
For example: the Higgs boson.
For example: Kabibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix.
For example: quark confinement.
However, Wang Bu'an soon found out again. This guy is pure theoretical knowledge. Speaking of it, he is eloquent and talkative. But there is no insight on how to apply it to the real world. Either follow the script. Either it is far-fetched. Anyway, it can't be connected with practical applications.
"This is a Zhao Kuo." Wang Buyan made a preliminary judgment.
Of course, Zhao Kuo is not a mediocre.
He just wasn't used right.
If it is used as a staff officer, Zhao Kuo is actually good.
It's a pity that he was appointed as the coach.
Some people are not born to be a coach.
Wang Bu'an doesn't need a coach.
He needs staff.
The clock is very suitable.
