Although the AK47 has a simple structure, it also has some inevitable shortcomings, such as large recoil and low shooting accuracy. However, this does not prevent it from becoming one of the most famous and widely used weapons in the world in the past.

What's more, don't forget that Zhou Tian also has a virtual space in his mind. He can naturally make certain improvements to a fully automatic rifle like the AK47.

In addition to its powerful firepower, there are several other reasons why submachine guns are popular in various countries. They are easy to operate and can be used in various harsh weather conditions.

With these ideas, Zhou Tian found it easier to draw. At the same time, as knowledge about submachine guns continued to flow into his mind, he gradually formed his own insights into submachine guns.

The AK47 is an automatic rifle designed by Mikhail Timofeyevich Kalashnikov, a firearms designer of Big Brother, in 1947. Its main structure is divided into barrel, bolt, magazine, gas tube, trigger and buttstock.

Among them, except for the barrel, which may be difficult to make, the rest are very simple. As far as my country's current industrial level is concerned, it is enough for large-scale manufacturing.

There were only some deficiencies in the stainless steel required for the gun barrel. However, if he remembered correctly, in September this year, that is, this month, the Taiyuan Iron and Steel Plant successfully smelted the first batch of stainless steel (grade 2Cr13) in New China, ending China's history of not being able to produce stainless steel.

With stainless steel, the problem of the barrel was solved. However, Zhou Tian was not satisfied with just designing the early model of AK47. He remembered that AK47 had undergone many improvements before it had the timeless classic design of the previous life.

These included replacing the milled receiver with a punch riveted receiver, which reduced the weight of the rifle. The magazine was changed to a light alloy, and later a glass fiber plastic compression molded magazine was developed. The buttstock, handguard and grip were made of resin composite materials.

The surface of the bolt and bolt frame are phosphated; the range of the sight is increased, and a new multi-functional bayonet is used; finger grooves are set on the handguard; the hammer is equipped with a "hammer delay body" (also called a "reducer"), etc.

However, in view of the current domestic industrial level, he had to cut some improvements. For example, the magazines were replaced with glass fiber plastic compression molded magazines and resin synthetic materials. Given the current industrial situation in our country, large-scale manufacturing is not very realistic. If there is only a small demand, it may be possible.

The only reliable approach is to use a riveted receiver instead of a milled receiver and perform phosphating treatment.

As for other aspects, with the knowledge Zhou Tian possessed, perhaps if he could do some research, it would not be impossible to achieve. But now was not the right time, and these two improvements were enough, at least they had reached the mainstream level of the current world.

As the drawings came out smoothly one after another, Zhou Tian only spent two days to complete the data parameters and structure diagram of the entire AK47.

When he found Song Lian with the AK47 blueprint, Song Lian was a little confused. Looking at the design in his hand, he couldn't help asking, "Xiaotian, didn't you just design a semi-automatic rifle? How come you came up with a submachine gun?"

"Brother Song, this was not designed by me. I just modified and imitated it based on Big Brother's AK series submachine guns!" Zhou Tian hurriedly explained when he heard Song Lian's question.

He couldn't admit this. After all, Mikhail Timofeyevich Kalashnikov was still alive. If he admitted it, wouldn't he lose face abroad?

"Okay! Okay! Even if you imitated the design of the AK47 submachine gun, your speed is too fast. You should know that your old leader just finalized the design of your rifle last week and was preparing to go into production. Now you have come up with a design drawing of a submachine gun. Your efficiency is too amazing!" Song Lian couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard Zhou Tian's explanation.

"Brother Song, although the AK47 looks complicated, its structure is actually very simple. It's not a difficult task to produce the blueprint in two days." Zhou Tian said modestly, and Song Lian wanted to beat him up after hearing it.

Song Lian didn't believe a word of what Zhou Tian said about simplicity. If it was really simple, why couldn't others design it?

But to be honest, Song Lian was very happy that Zhou Tian was able to design two firearms within half a month. After all, the peninsula was still at war, and if he had these two firearms, he believed that the outcome of the war would be much better.

"Okay, I won't ask you any more unnecessary questions, Brother Song. Even if you tell me, I won't understand. I'll go find my old leader now. But Xiaotian, next time you design a weapon, can you tell Brother Song first? You just took out the design drawing without saying anything, which really puts me, Brother Song, in a passive position!" Song Lian put on his clothes and prepared to leave with the design drawing, but after taking a few steps, he stopped and reminded him.

Zhou Tian naturally nodded in agreement.

Looking at the little brother in front of him, Song Lian didn't know how to complain. We are both human beings, why is there such a big gap between him and the little brother? Looking at the little brother and then looking at himself, he felt ashamed of himself.

The more he thought about it, the more ashamed he felt. He was too embarrassed to stay any longer and walked out of the office. He had only walked less than a hundred meters when he heard Zhou Tian's shouting from behind him.

Song Lian turned around and saw Zhou Tian running over and saying, "Brother Song, I'm planning to research a rocket launcher next, so I'd like to tell you first!"

"Fire...fire...rocket launcher, are you sure you can research it?" Song Lian was completely uneasy now and asked stutteringly.

"Perhaps, possibly, and definitely, forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you. You will know when I figure it out, Brother Song. I'm leaving first!" Zhou Tian was about to explain to Song Lian's question, but he swallowed the words back. He looked at him with pretended contempt, turned around and left, leaving Song Lian standing there in a mess.

Back in the office, Zhou Tian started designing the rocket launcher. In fact, he did not lie to Song Lian just now. Speaking of rocket launchers, when he was designing AK47, he thought of what Director Zhang Yuan mentioned to him when he mentioned the situation of the war on the peninsula.

That is the problem of insufficient firepower. Although they now have AK47 as a firepower supplement, the soldiers are facing Bald Eagle soldiers. The enemy not only has M1 Gardner semi-automatic rifles, but also countless artillery and aircraft. This is the biggest problem facing the soldiers.

As for the weapons and planes of the Bald Eagle Country, Zhou Tian had no way to deal with them for the time being, but if it came to artillery, the first thing he thought of was a very classic rocket launcher of our country.

That is the 107 multiple rocket launcher. This rocket launcher had made great contributions in dealing with monkeys in the previous life and played an extremely important role.

At the same time, it is also the first one that can be ranked alongside the AK47 and RPG-7 rocket launcher, and was known as one of the three most famous conventional weapons in the world in the past.

It has a simple and lightweight structure, is light in weight, highly maneuverable, easy to operate, and most importantly, can adapt to a variety of terrains.

It consists of a tube director consisting of 3 rows of 12 tubes, a rubber tire forked slide, a sight, a gun mount, elevation wheels, a steering wheel, front and rear rods, etc. The launch tubes can be removed individually and used in different combinations according to needs.

If it could be designed in 51, he believed it would be a big surprise to the Bald Eagle Country.
