Because the combat environments and tasks are different, the equipment requirements of the navy and the army are also different. The same piece of equipment may meet the needs of the army, but not necessarily the needs of the navy. Therefore, the navy often makes improvements based on the original equipment, or develops separate independent projects.
The army, navy and air force are basically all interested in this heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor. It's just that because each has different needs, the specific requirements are also different.
The Army probably valued defense and therefore required heavy armor. The Air Force and Navy pay attention to fast maneuverability, rapid deployment, lightness and flexibility, so they mainly value the maneuverability and flexibility of this mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor.
As a result, the Army, Air Force and Navy were separated, and two separate research and development projects were established based on the original heavy mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor.
However, because the Army has been under great pressure from its surroundings in recent years and is also at the forefront of the struggle, under the coordination of the headquarters, Wu Hao and the military industry system concentrated their efforts on the research and development of the Army's heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor.
Faced with the hot research and development project, the Air Force and Navy were naturally a little reluctant. While waiting anxiously, they were also paying close attention to the progress of the entire project.
The Northwest Desert Research Center, set up at a shooting range protruding from the desert, is conducting a live-fire test.
Three heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armors were transported by cranes from the load-carrying vehicles to stand in place.
The technicians who had been waiting for a long time could not wait to carry the equipment forward and start debugging. At the same time, several young mechanics wearing camouflage military coats began to equip the three heavy-duty mechanical exoskeletons with armor and ammunition.
First of all, the first heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton assist armor is equipped with a 7.62mm three-barreled rotary machine gun. Workers are loading bullets into the ammunition backpack behind this heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor.
The brand-new copper-cased bullets shone with a cold light, making people shudder.
Slow down, this is live ammunition!
On the side, a 20-cent major wearing a military coat stared closely at the work of these mechanics without any distraction.
The second heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor is also loading ammunition, but this heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor is actually equipped with a 40mm grenade launcher. The 40mm caliber grenade inserted in the bullet chain makes this heavy mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor look particularly tough.
The third heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor has no equipment, but there is a modified 120 mm caliber rocket launcher, anti-tank missiles and individual anti-aircraft missiles placed next to it.
Three heavy-duty mechanical exoskeletons assisted the armor in an orderly manner, and the person in charge of this test and this project, Chu Tianyou, was holding a laptop and typing something at the moment. On the side, a middle-aged man wearing a military coat and earning 24 cents was looking at something with a telescope.
Report, the range is ready. A sergeant ran over and saluted and reported.
The 24-cent middle-aged man returned the salute, and then ordered: "Check the shooting range area again to confirm that idlers are staying. Once it is confirmed that it is safe, the shooting range will be sealed off and the entry personnel will enter."
yes!
Chief Chu, when do you think the test will start? The 24-cent middle-aged man then asked Chu Tianyou beside him.
The test can be started after the test work is completed. If there are no problems, it should be completed soon. What, Director Meng, do you have any questions? . Chu Tianyou raised his head and said with a smile.
This 24-cent middle-aged man is called Meng Changbo. He is 46 years old and comes from the Army Headquarters. He is mainly responsible for the follow-up work of this project.
The Army can send a 24-cent person as a military representative to establish the importance it attaches to this project. Take this live-fire test as an example, the division went smoothly. Basically, the application was approved on the same day, or the Army can't wait for this heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton to assist armored live-fire firing.
Meng Changbo shook his head and said: "There's no problem, I'm just a little excited. I've been following this project for a while, and I can't wait to see it showing its fangs."
Hahaha, don't worry, you will see it soon. Chu Tianyou said with a smile.
According to the report, the on-site surveillance camera equipment has been set up, the connection test with the headquarters has been completed, and the communication channels are open.
Um? Upon hearing this report, Chu Tianyou looked puzzled.
As for Meng Changbo, he explained with a smile: "The heads of the headquarters are also very concerned about this project. Today's live-fire test was carried out, so they also want to take a look at the on-site situation."
Chu Tianyou suddenly understood after hearing this, and then smiled and waved his hands: "No problem, we will definitely show a wonderful live ammunition shooting for the leaders."
Ha ha ha ha……
At this moment, in the Army Headquarters Building in Beijing, in a comprehensive command hall, an old man with a shining general on his shoulders couldn't help but laugh when he saw what he just saw on the big screen.
Lao He, we are not too late. A group of shining old people walked in through the gate on the other side, led by an old man with some gray hair.
You're not late, the time is just right, it's about to start. The old man named He said with a smile.
Haha, then we are ready to have an eye-opening experience. The old man laughed heartily.
Then there was a burst of hearty laughter in the hall.
Drivers enter!
The three pilots quickly took off their coats and wore slim singlets. With the help of the staff, they quickly penetrated into the heavy mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor from the front.
Wear the sensor and check the device.
The device is in self-test. The self-test is completed and the device is normal.
Close the cockpit and start the system.
The system starts and the system runs normally.
When the test begins, the No. 1 heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor will be tested first. The safety is turned on, and the target is a fixed vehicle target 200 meters away.
In order to demonstrate the powerful firepower of this 7.62mm three-barreled rotary machine gun, the staff placed a car that had been scrapped for several days at the shooting range as a fixed target. There are also human targets placed inside these cars, and the specific damage effects have been checked.
Report No. 1, safety on, target locked, request to fire!
The voice of the operator in the No. 1 heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton assist armor came over the radio.
Upon hearing this, Chu Tianyou looked at Meng Changbo, and when he saw the other man nodded, Chu Tianyou immediately ordered cleanly: "Fire!"
Da da da da…
Three machine guns sprayed out flames, shooting at the scrapped cars two hundred meters away.
The scene is no longer just the sound of machine gun shooting, but the linear chainless ammunition supply system rapidly supplying bullets, and the metallic sound of the triple barrel rotation.
Although it is not as crisp as the multi-tube Gatling, the special sound of metal tearing has already made people's blood rush.
