I tinkered with cars and built a super military industry

"That's right! Upgrade the electromagnetic gun on the tank."

"There is also a missile vertical launch system, how is this possible!"

"Don't say that we are the same tank research group, we should support it."

"But this is too much!"

"There is nothing to go too far. Lao Yan chooses to believe that there is nothing we can do."

"All bad thoughts are rotten in your stomach!"

"Tell me, what if that classmate really developed an electromagnetic rail gun tank."

"That would definitely make our tank crew look bad! But it's definitely not possible."

"Even the 055 battleship can't fit such a large electromagnetic rail gun, how can a tank fit it?"

"That's right! The output power of the electromagnetic railgun must reach several thousand megawatts."

"Power supply energy storage must be at least [-] megajoules."

"This is already the energy storage scale of the electromagnetic catapult device of a large aircraft carrier."

"Don't think so much. It's not your fault to brag about your awesomeness. Whoever brags will deal with it."

"The key is if such a tank is not built."

"How will our tank team gain a foothold in the Military Academy in the future?"

"What are you afraid of? The worst thing you can do is be thick-skinned."

"That's right! Lao Yan is not afraid, so what are you afraid of?"

"Besides, if everyone is afraid of making breakthroughs in scientific research, why do we do scientific research?"

"Wouldn't it be nice to go home and farm?"

"Don't worry! The drawings proposed by that classmate are still valuable."

"Even if the manufacturing fails, we can still improve it."

"And just this drawing is enough for us to communicate with our superiors."

......

Yan Hua quickly came to the tank workshop.

However, when Yan Hua first entered the tank production workshop.

A gray-colored tank stopped right at the gate.

The appearance of the tank is much different from traditional tanks.

Just in terms of the appearance of the armor alone, there have been many changes to the lines and contours of the entire tank.

Compared with traditional tank armor, the surface of the tank built by Li Yifan is very smooth.

It seems that special materials are used to make the tank more invisible.

As his eyes moved to the turret, Yan Hua's eyes narrowed slightly.

The barrel diameter of the electromagnetic railgun has not changed much, and the 120MM barrel is still used.

The only difference is that the front half of the barrel is thin and the back half is thick.

However, no matter how you look at it, the combination of the turret and the barrel always has a futuristic feel.

Although it doesn't have the feeling of being in a science fiction blockbuster, it already has a vague prototype.

But the designed fire control system has really changed a lot.

Such as including laser range finders, tank night vision devices, high and low machines, fire control computers with various sensors, etc.

These things are based on tradition, but on this tank, it has obviously undergone many upgrades and changes.

Yan Hua circled around the tank, the smile on his face getting wider.

Then Yan Hua climbed into the tank cockpit.

There are all kinds of instruments and meters.

The first thing people notice is that the chair where the gunner sits on the left side of the gun is welded shut.

There's a scope on it.

In front of the gunner is the control console steering machine and height machine.

In addition, the second gunner is on the right side of the artillery, with ammunition on the left and right sides.

The commander is behind the gunner.

The inside of the tank is still a bit small and seems a little crowded.

The driver is in the car body, and there are two periscopes on the left side of the front of the car.

Used when driving with a closed position.

While the driver controls the tank's joystick throttle, there is also a heading machine gun on his right side.

Operated by the driver.

Under the machine gun is where the battery is installed, and you can see some strange and different batteries.

It's not a traditional battery.

This kind of battery is not the traditional round battery.

It looks round, about the size of a CD.

The thickness is about twenty centimeters.

There are many power supply mechanisms like this in the car body.

Although Yan Hua didn't understand it very well, he knew that most of these power supplies were used for electromagnetic railguns.

Yan Hua got out of the cockpit and came to the rear of the tank.

Open the car's engine compartment door.

I don't know if I don't see it, I'm startled when I see it.

The entire engine bay is filled to the brim.

If you want to do maintenance in the upper cabin, you can only repair the upper part.

But there are some wiring harnesses or pipes lying around that I can't get rid of at all.

You have to take the engine apart to repair it.

Also, Li Yifan reserved holes for the engine disassembly and assembly screws before designing.

Otherwise, it would take a day to dismantle the engine alone.

However, under Yan Hua's serious observation, his brows tightened.

Why does it feel like the engine in this cabin looks a bit like a turbofan engine?

After Yan Hua searched carefully.

The frown became tighter and tighter.

In the cabin, the engine is equipped with a V12 twin-turbo reciprocating diesel engine.

There is also a turbofan engine.

This tank has twin engines?

Yan Hua looked into the engine compartment with a look of disbelief on his face, and he just didn't come back to his senses.

Although he knows that dual engines can provide good power output to the tank.

But the fuel consumption is several times that of traditional fuel consumption!

A traditional tank consumes about 210 to more than 400 liters of fuel per [-] kilometers.

The fuel consumption per 800 kilometers of those two engines must be about [-] liters!

And there is a turbofan engine inside.

When this thing is started, it pumps oil like a water machine.

If it is such a design, the tank can only run with the fuel tank on its back.

It seems that this tank is not as powerful and domineering as it looks on the outside.

Yan Hua may not understand the design of the electromagnetic railgun very well.

But he can still understand the engine.

When he first saw this tank, he was still very curious.

But now after seeing the dual-engine design, I suddenly lost interest.

Yan Hua observed and said:

"Classmate, are you pursuing speed too much with your dual-engine design?"

“I understand that many people’s understanding of a tank is an iron turtle.”

"It is believed that tanks are inherently heavy, cannot run fast, and are not flexible enough."

"But that's just a layman's understanding."

"After all, tanks are charged into battle, and they have all kinds of armed armor."

"The dead weight alone can reach about sixty tons."

"Because it must be like this so that it can become an armored body armor for infantrymen on the battlefield."

"So it's inherently slow, which is common sense and nothing to nitpick."

"So your engines are putting the cart before the horse, classmate."

Yan Hua's words basically went in one ear and out the other.

What Yan Hua said is putting the cart before the horse is nothing more than considering the fuel consumption cost of the tank.

To say that it is unreasonable here is to express this point of view.

In fact, when the system first proposed the conceptual design of this dual engine, Li Yifan also considered the issue of fuel consumption.

But later, through systematic and accurate budgeting, the fuel consumption of the tank's twin engines was half that of a traditional tank.

Even lower.

The lowest fuel consumption of traditional tanks is 200 liters per [-] kilometers.

But the dual-engine tank designed by Li Yifan consumes less than 100 liters of fuel per [-] kilometers.

Hearing Yan Hua's question, Li Yifan just replied lightly.

"The fuel consumption of this tank is less than 100 liters per [-] kilometers!"
