Danxinshan training camp.
While the aviation industry is conducting large-scale experiments on new products, the Army cannot remain idle.
Nowadays, the world generally believes that China is the number one air force power, but many people have overlooked one point.
China is also a land power.
In fact, among China's three military services, the Army's investment in equipment has always occupied the largest share.
"Boom, boom, boom" bursts of gunfire sounded continuously on the shooting range.
Five or six self-propelled armored destroyers were shooting at targets at different distances.
Half of them were prototypes that had not been seen in public.
One of them had a pipe that was obviously thicker than the one next to it.
When the shelling stopped, someone quickly took the targets back to check the effect.
Those targets made of ordinary homogeneous steel plates all penetrated, but those targets made of new armor were different, and many of them failed to penetrate.
Most of the targets shot by the "Mountain Lion" 105mm armored destroyer were pitted, and only two targets indicating 100 meters and 50 meters were punched with holes.
As for those 90 and 75 mm ones, needless to say, they didn’t penetrate even a single inch, and at most they left some craters on the target.
Looking at this situation, Major General Yang Ning, commander of the 9th Mechanized Infantry Division, couldn't help but be speechless: "Oh my God, what on earth is this armor made of?
Even the Mountain Lion has to put gold coin bullets within 100 meters to barely penetrate it.
This is already It's as close as a bayonet fight."
Although they lost the exercise in the morning, there was nothing good to say about losing to the "alien".
A colonel next to him said: "Mr.
Yang, the mountain lion's cannon is a rifled cannon and cannot fully exert the effect of gold coin bullets.
You see, the performance of the hyena using the same caliber smoothbore cannon is very different. 400 meters It can effectively penetrate.
The giant hyena using a 125mm smoothbore cannon has an effective penetration range of 1,000 meters.”
The targets next to them were completely different.
They were all effectively penetrated.
The hot tungsten alloy bullet core melted the metal at the breach.
Yang Ning glanced at the tall major general next to him and said, "Brother Song, what do you think?"
"I was wondering when this kind of armor would be used on our tanks.
According to the performance stated in the manual, the penetration depth of this 125 mm smoothbore gun is 750 mm homogeneous steel plate.
We have all seen the results now.
This kind of The defensive power of the new armor is at least five times that of ordinary steel plates."
The other party thought for a while and said angrily.
This old man named Song is called Song Xuewu.
He is currently the commander of the 12th Mech Infantry Division.
He is from Yunyang, Hubei Province.
He is 1.98 meters tall and has a strong back and waist.
He looks like a fierce general at first glance.
Standing next to the slimmer Yang Ning, the contrast is very obvious.
He also led the team to participate in exercises and tests this time.
This General Song was also an old revolutionary.
When he was young, his parents were persecuted by local powerful men and both died.
When he was wandering around, he was spotted by a Taoist priest from Wudang Mountain and took him to the mountain to learn martial arts.
It wasn't until he was 17 years old that he went out to take revenge.
In the end, he failed to kill his enemy, but accidentally killed the county magistrate who was a guest at the powerful man's home at the time, so he fled up the mountain.
It is difficult for a god to hide away, and no matter how good his skills are in front of guns and cannons, it is useless.
Song Xuewu had no choice but to be a savage in the mountains of Shennongjia for more than a year.
He usually hid in Tibet and was very embarrassed.

It wasn't until the Kyodo Society of the Socialist Party of Science and Technology swept Hubei that he could appear openly and openly.
Later, he joined the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army.
With his good skills in fighting bears and tigers, he was selected into the scouts, and then he went all the way to the present.
Yang Ning turned to a young man wearing glasses and asked: "Well, um, Zuo Gong, when will you test this armor and when will it be officially adopted?"
Zuo Jiamian adjusted his glasses and smiled: "General Yang, the current testing of the new armor has entered the advanced stage, and it will be widely equipped with our army soon.
I believe you will be able to use weapons equipped with this new armor soon. ."
This Zuo Gong is the head of the testing team from Henan Heavy Truck.
At this time, a smiling major general squeezed over and said to Yang Ning and the others: "Old Yang, Brother Song, who of you will come tomorrow?"
Well, he is "Director Gedmis Zaki" who just beat up the Red Army.
No, It was Yin Luhang, the commander of the Blue Army. "" Yang Ning and Song Xuewu looked at each other without saying a word.
Aliens are difficult to fight.
No one wants to press their face to the floor and rub them back and forth.
It’s just one time.
It’s really uncomfortable to do it several times.
Half a month later, Luoyang Tractor Factory.
After completing the test, Zuo Jiamian's team returned to Henan Heavy Vehicle Group Company with a large amount of data.
The company's main products are various armored vehicles, and it is one of the six largest tank production bases in China.
Luoyang Tractor General Factory is one of its direct subsidiaries, mainly producing crawler tractors and tanks.
As soon as Zuo Jiamian walked into the door of the office building, he heard a blunt Mandarin with a Henan flavor: "Oh, dear Zuo, what are the results of this test?"
Zuo Jiamian looked back and saw an old Caucasian man with a bald head.
He was wearing a set of factory work clothes with some oil stains on them, and he was holding a large file in his hand.
"Oh, it's Sabi."
Zuo Jiamian saw that he was a colleague and started to chat with him: "The results this time are not bad.
The test has been successfully completed.
What are you?"
Zuo Jiamian looked at the big file with a cold light in his opponent's hand. , my heart felt a little tight.
"Oh, there are some problems with our export version of the red wolf tank model.
I just went to repair it."
Sabi smiled and shook the file: "Okay, I want to go to the workshop to have a look, and come for a drink tonight."
This bald foreigner’s name is Sergey Burkatov, a Belarusian.
People who are familiar with him call him “Sabi”.
Sabi was originally a mechanical engineer in Minsk.
During the First World War, his family was blown to pieces by Er Dezi's plane.
From then on, he deeply hated the Germans and the Czar, who had been defeated in many battles.
Later, he joined the anti-tsarist alliance and participated in the Russian Revolution.
However, after the red-haired man gained power, he turned against him and confiscated his factory, and even killed his assistant as a counter-revolutionary.
At that time, China happened to be recruiting people there, and Sabi, who really felt that he had no other choice, came to China.
Now Luoyang Tractor General Factory serves as the chief designer of export tanks, and is particularly good at drastically improving the performance of tanks.
Although everyone knows that the performance of the export version must be reduced, this guy sometimes goes too far and even the company can't stand it.
People have to suspect that he has British ancestry.
That afternoon, Zuo Jiamian attended the test report meeting of the heavy truck company.
"Dear leaders and colleagues, our tungsten mesh armor has successfully passed the test, and the relevant information has been sent to everyone."
Zuo Jiamian pointed to the comparison photo on the big screen and introduced: "Please take a look, this is the 100 mm tungsten mesh armor.
Compared with the live-fire test of 600mm ordinary armor steel plates, this was caused by the latest 125mm smoothbore gun using high-speed fin-stabilized discarding sabot armor-piercing projectiles at a distance of 2,000 meters."
I saw that the test target of the ordinary armor steel plate had a big hole punched in it, while the test target of the tungsten mesh armor only had some deformation.

"Let's take a look at the effects of armor-piercing bullets, which are also 125mm armor-piercing bullets."
Zuo Jiamian changed the photo.
"Please see, the 1,200 mm ordinary armor steel plate was completely penetrated by the metal jet, while the tungsten mesh armor only had a melted pit on the surface."
Next, I looked at the damage test photos of armor-breaking bullets.
This is even more exaggerated.
The tungsten mesh armor does not eat armor-breaking bullets at all.
The armor-breaking bullets have no effect at all except blasting a black mark on the surface.
"After many live-fire tests, our 100mm tungsten mesh armor's ability to resist fin-stabilized sabot armor-piercing projectiles is equivalent to 800mm-thick homogeneous steel armor, and its ability to resist hollow-charge armor-piercing projectiles is equivalent to 1,500mm-thick armor-piercing projectiles.
Homogeneous steel armor.
Its bulletproof capability also far exceeds the fiberglass composite armor and ceramic composite armor we used before, which are equivalent to 4 times of the former and 3 times of the latter.
After many comparisons, it has been proven that tungsten mesh armor is currently the most bulletproof in the world.
Strong composite armor."
Everyone nodded after seeing it.
The performance of this armor was obviously beyond their expectations.
Composite armor is just a conceptual thing, and China started working on it before World War I.
In the history of the original time and space, it also appeared after World War II.
Various countries have developed various types of composite armor.
By the late 1980s, the United States developed a new type of composite armor, depleted uranium armor.
The so-called "depleted uranium" is actually the "depleted uranium" burned in nuclear power plants, uh, that is, spent fuel.
The main component is uranium 238, which cannot be used as fissile material.
After the Americans reused this waste, part of it was made into depleted uranium armor-piercing projectiles, and part of it was used to make depleted uranium armor.
Of course, this does not mean that armor plates are made directly from spent fuel.
The process is to first add other ingredients to depleted uranium to make a depleted uranium alloy, then make the depleted uranium alloy into a network structure and embed it into a steel matrix to create a sandwich-biscuit-style armor.
This is depleted uranium armor, in which the role of the depleted uranium alloy mesh is to constrain and tighten the ceramic blocks wrapped in each mesh.
According to the United States' own experiments, its performance far exceeds that of ceramic composite armor. 1.
With its depleted uranium armor, not a single tank was penetrated by the Iraqi army in the Gulf War, and it stole the show, which really proves that this kind of thing is very powerful.
But we all know that uranium is radioactive, even depleted uranium.
Although the performance of this kind of armor is not bad, the side effects are too great.
Depleted uranium bombs are okay.
When not in use, they can be locked in a lead box that shields radiation, which is much safer, but the armor of this tank cannot shield them.
So later China used tungsten to replace dangerous depleted uranium and developed its own tungsten mesh armor.
However, Wen Desi's tungsten mesh armor goes a step further.
It is a new technology that only appeared in the mid-to-late 21st century.
This layer of tungsten mesh is not directly made of tungsten metal, but tungsten metal whiskers.
Some metals will grow "whiskers" under certain conditions, which are extremely fine filaments.
Their crystalline structures are completely flawless, so their strength is dozens of times that of the base metal, and their performance is amazing.
But naturally growing whiskers are very short, only a few millimeters, making them difficult to exploit.
After long-term and unremitting efforts to burn money and slowly experiment, we finally found the catalytic substance and optimal environmental conditions for the growth of tungsten whiskers, which can grow whiskers several centimeters long at a relatively fast speed.
After long-term and unremitting research, the catalytic substances and optimal environmental conditions for the growth of iron whiskers have been found, and whiskers several centimeters long can be grown at a relatively fast speed.
The whiskers are then plated with silver to prevent oxidation, then woven into a mesh and placed between two heated armor steel plates in a vacuum to become ultra-high-strength armor with tungsten whiskers as the skeleton.
After testing, it was found that two layers of whisker mesh sandwiched between three armor steel plates have the best bulletproof effect and can best exert its ultra-high tensile strength when hit by armor-piercing projectiles.
The ultra-high-temperature metal flow of shaped energy-piercing projectiles loses its effect after being blocked by high-temperature-resistant and high-specific-gravity tungsten whiskers.
The effect is much better than that of ceramic interlayers.
As for the armor-breaking bullets, they are completely useless and can only make a sound.
Its armor-piercing resistance far exceeds that of depleted uranium armor.

This is because the specific gravity of tungsten is greater than that of depleted uranium alloy, and the strength of tungsten whiskers greatly exceeds that of depleted uranium alloy.
The most important thing is that tungsten mesh armor does not have the radiation pollution problem of depleted uranium armor, and the manufacturing cost is much lower than the latter.
There is no way.
From the smelting of depleted uranium metal to the production, the various protective devices on a production line are enough to drink a pot. presidential palace.
The news that the tungsten mesh armor passed the live ammunition test was quickly reported to Wen Desi.
Wen Desi smiled reservedly: "Haha, I finally succeeded.
It is only in the past few years that I have the opportunity to use my old skills."
That's right, including this tungsten mesh armor and several new alloy materials currently emerging, they were all created under his direct guidance.
There are basically no shortcuts in the material industry.
Except for small-probability incidents such as character explosions, it all relies on the exhaustive method to slowly try out one formula after another, and one process after another.
The only thing is a huge amount of money and a long period of accumulation.
But at the same time, it means that as long as the craftsmanship level is reached, as long as you know the formula and process of a certain material, you can reproduce it perfectly.
The science of metal materials is Mr.
Wen's main field, but the threshold for his field is too high.
In the first few years after time travel, there were no conditions at all.
If the craftsmanship level is not up to standard, he will not be able to sell his goods.
It was not until the technology tree reached a certain level in the past few years that the professional knowledge in his mind could come into play.
"Currently, they have only produced armor steel and porcelain steel versions of tungsten mesh armor," Wen Desi asked Military Affairs Secretary Gu Xiaoyuan.
"Yes, just these kinds" Wen Desi smiled: "Then remind them that tungsten whisker nets can also be embedded in magnesium-sodium alloy armor plates or titanium alloy armor plates, so that the defense of our aircraft can be greatly improved."
At this time, Gu Xiaofei, who was in charge of science and technology, ran in again: "Mr.
Wen, Mr.
Wen, report from Institute 3315, the Tongtianqiao project has made a major breakthrough.
They have launched a 1,000 kilogram unmanned spacecraft into orbit."
"Did you succeed?"
Wen Desi stood up immediately
