Chapter 2398: Crusader

During the Cold War, the Eagles developed a lot of black technology military industry, and after the end of the Cold War, these technologies were finally dismantled because there were no enemies. At the same time, the research and development costs of the Eagles increased rapidly, and the national strength began to weaken. A confirmation of this.
The Crusader system, the dismantling of the most advanced self-propelled artillery system, has nothing to do with the Cold War. This project started after the disintegration of the bear country. This project was also quite advanced and was used by almost all of them at the time. The military bricks of China are optimistic, but when it is about to achieve a positive result, it happened to encounter a military revolution in the Eagle Nation.
The Eagles believe that there is no country in the world that they are afraid of. They just need to stom their feet, and the whole world is shaking three times. However, there are some humble pony thieves who occasionally come out to destroy them. They will do something in the future. It is the war against terrorism. Their heavy equipment does not contribute much to the war on terrorism. Therefore, they have to be cut off. Those powerful M1 tanks will not be reused, let alone this heavy artillery, which is used to deal with the enemy. However, the future enemies of the Eagle Nation army will hide in the city and among the civilians. They will never have the opportunity to use such artillery. The Crusaders are too heavy.
This is the reason that led to the final dismounting of the Crusaders, and speaking out, it will make people feel a little ridiculous, sad, and lamentable.
After Qin Guan thought of this system, he couldn't help it anymore, beckoning Major Yang to find a place to sit down, and then entered the weapons cemetery.
The Crusader entered quickly, and then the weapon cemetery where he was located appeared. Then, Qin Guan clicked the button floating above and entered the weapon cemetery.
Many laymen will not be able to distinguish the difference between a tank and a self-propelled artillery. As long as they see a tracked chassis, they will be called a tank. In fact, these are two different equipment.
The tank is to conquer the city and fight on the front line. Its armor is the thickest, its appearance is relatively low, its turret is in the middle, and the self-propelled artillery is made of light and thin armor. The turret is at the rear, which can reduce the length of the entire car body. After all, the barrel is very long. Moving the turret back can reduce the part of the barrel protruding forward.
Now, what appeared in front of Qin Guan was such a self-propelled artillery. First of all, look at its appearance. It is tall and powerful. It is about half a meter taller than ordinary tanks. The turret is located at the rear, but the turret is very wide. , It is very long, this is a very rare design, and look at the chassis, it actually has seven pairs of road wheels!
This is the prototype of the Crusaders. At this time, this prototype was lying quietly in the weapons cemetery. The era that belonged to it has passed, and now it is the hero ending, just like the Iah. Like the Chinese horn, the Crusaders can only spend their last years here.
Many of its designs are actually advanced. Just as far as its artillery is concerned, despite its 155mm caliber, it can reach a maximum range of 50 kilometers. At the same time, its rate of fire is quite terrifying.
Such a huge turret is due to the internal design of an automatic loading machine, and at the same time, there is also a dedicated ammunition supply vehicle. Everything is fully automatic. The three members can supply 60 shells in less than 60 seconds. After the target data is completed, all the preparations can be completed in 15 seconds, and then the shooting will begin. 10 shells will be fired within 60 seconds, and then within 90 seconds will move to a new position 750 meters away to initiate a new shooting. This speed is incomparable to any self-propelled artillery. It can also perfectly avoid enemy fire. As long as three crusaders can safely fire 180 rounds of attack in 20 minutes, it is equivalent to 18 The attack power of M109A2 or 9 M109A6 Rangers can fully guarantee their own safety.
Qin Guan made a circle around it, and the rear hatch was somewhat rusty. After working hard a few times, he finally opened the rear hatch, and what appeared in front of Qin Guan was a modern operation interface.
This system has been developed into the 21st century, so many new technologies are used on it. If you want to quickly aim and shoot, there is a complete set of shooting control system. According to the development of technology at that time, It already has vehicle-mounted networked information processing technology, and has automatic fire control and command and control capabilities.
Now, looking at the interface of the display screen, there is also a familiar feeling. Qin Guan sat there and looked around. This type of artillery can shoot at high speed. Is it because there is a set of automatic loading system, this system is currently There was dust all around him.
This system, instead of staying here to eat ashes, it is better to let yourself take it out and contribute to the development of the weaponry of the Han country! Qin Guan suppressed the feeling that he would start to exchange immediately. Now he doesn't have to be so fast. As long as he can find it, then there will be samples for the research and development of equipment, and then it is enough to find specific scientific research institutions to advance.
"Brother Yang, I have already thought about it." Qin Guan said. When he logged out of the system, he knew that more than ten minutes had passed. During these ten minutes, he was sitting here, seeming to be contemplating. And Major Yang and the others on the side are also waiting quietly, no one will interrupt his thinking.
"Say." Major Yang asked expectantly.
"Our artillery is very large in size and weight. Therefore, on the one hand, we need our artillery development unit to study its lightweight, reduce weight, and achieve the purpose of installing on the chassis of self-propelled artillery. On the one hand, we need to develop a brand new chassis, and ultimately, the weight of the entire system will be controlled within 45 tons."
The average self-propelled artillery is 20 to 30 tons, 45 tons, which is the weight of your own main battle tank. For the self-propelled artillery, it seems to be a bit too big, but I want to carry the 203 mm. For the gun barrel, it is already a very demanding requirement to increase the weight of the Crusader by five tons.
"Yes, this is what we thought." Major Yang said.
"In terms of the specific design, I initially planned it this way." Qin Guan took out a pen and began to draw. The placement of the chassis, the turret, the various internal equipment, and the various ideas of information warfare, Qin Guan It took more than half an hour to watch the spitting stars fly randomly.
Qin Guan's design coincides with Major Yang's ideas. When all was said and done, Major Yang's eyes flashed: "So, how long will it take for us to develop it?"
"When I get the prototype car, I think there should be progress in one or two years, right?" Qin Guan said, "Please be prepared for the relevant comrades. The prototype car and materials will be handed over to them soon."
