C1511 To Convince Everyone
The whole meeting room is dead silent, everyone's eyes, they were all staring at foreign countries. Now, international assault rifles were developing... It was developing towards the small caliber. China had also researched the small caliber problem of rifles. And preliminary research showed that 5.8 mm was a good choice.0
However, Qin Guan actually said here that the small caliber was not suitable. Even if it was smaller than the current caliber, it had to be 6. More than 5 millimeters, this was completely different from what everyone knew.
The choice of this caliber had to be carefully chosen. After all, once it was chosen, it would affect the future decades.
"Even in the war in Monkey Country, the power of the M16 rifle is definitely incomparable to the AK47. The only advantage of a small caliber rifle is the amount of ammunition it carries." Qin Guan said.
Why did he need a small caliber rifle? This was a comprehensive consideration of many factors. Among them, the number of bullets each soldier carried was a very important data.
During the time of the World War, the main use of a single soldier was still the bolt rifle. In a battle, it was already good enough for a soldier to shoot out 20 bullets. The only thing left was to use a Bayonet or retreat, so the demand for bullets was not very high. Each soldier carried 50 bullets and 100 bullets. That would definitely be a lot.
But what about now? An assault rifle, even if it was fired at three points, would be gone after three bullets. A brief exchange of fire, if it's a newbie, maybe his fingers would pull the trigger and not let go of the thirty bullets in the magazine. All of them shot out.
Under such circumstances, the consumption of bullets would greatly increase.
And by minimizing the ammunition, it would naturally be able to increase the number of bullets carried by the infantry. This would be very beneficial to increasing the infantry's sustainability in battle.
Furthermore, small-caliber ammunition under 6 mm not only greatly reduced the overall weight of the gun, but also the overall weight of the ammunition. It would reduce the burden of the soldiers, and at the same time, the recoil would also decrease, which would be more conducive to firing. Although the caliber was small, it was easier to roll after touching the target. The lethality was also more intense than the previous rounds of ammunition.
This was the advantage of a small caliber rifle. It had gained the recognition of the whole world, but President Qin wanted to come up with a new theory here?
"President Qin, please explain in detail." Inspector Gao said, "We really don't know what advantage this caliber has compared to the popular small caliber."
Everyone knew Qin Guan's ability. Therefore, although Qin Guan's idea made everyone feel strange, they still had to listen to Qin Guan's explanation seriously.
"Generally speaking, different caliber of ammunition means different sizes and load capacity. It affects the load capacity of the magazine, the load capacity of soldiers, the recoil capacity, the range of the ammunition, and the combat strength of individual soldiers during battle. The size of the ammunition can be said to be closely related to the performance of soldiers during battle." Qin Guan said, "The current 7.62 mm rifle, due to its great power, has a serious muzzle jump. It has a lot of recoil, and its power is too much for our current needs. "
Everyone present nodded at Qin Guan's words.
That's right, rifles now had too much power, so there was a trend of small-caliber rifles.
"But if it's a small caliber rifle, there will be another problem. It's not powerful enough." Qin Guan said, "I said it is not powerful enough. It is not that it is not powerful enough now. It's just that in the next ten or twenty years, we will have to face such an awkward situation. "
Qin Guan's biggest advantage was his forward-looking ability. Now, explaining this problem to everyone was also looking into the long term.
" For example, everyone should know about the protection of individual soldiers. As it is gradually improving, the soft bulletproof vest is no longer suitable. There will be a hard ceramics bulletproof armor inserted into the soldier's chest and back. It would provide additional protection. Just like the Composite Armor of our tank. This way, a small caliber rifle bullet won't be able to penetrate it at all."
Regarding the bulletproof vest, many people's impression of it was still the past. At most, it could only defend against a handgun bullet. If it was a rifle bullet, even if it wasn't penetrated, there would still be a huge impact that would flatten a person's internal organs.
Actually, these were all misunderstandings. With the development of technology, this kind of thing... Modern armor was already very advanced. A hard bulletproof plug-in could solve the problem. Small caliber rifles are simply unable to penetrate. On the battlefield, there had been many examples. This bulletproof plug-in had saved the lives of many soldiers. They did not have internal injuries or broken ribs. They only had a red mark on their chest that disappeared after a few days.
Another example was a bank robbery in Y Country. Two robbers were wearing heavy bulletproof vests. After entering the bank, they came out after the robbery and were surrounded by the police. The weapons in the police's hands, police pistols, were useless against the bulletproof vests. Their 5.56 mm rifles were also ineffective. In the end, the police were helpless. They took the AK47 from the gun shops nearby and only then did they manage to penetrate the other party.
After all, the purpose of the rifle was to kill the enemy. If the rifle couldn't penetrate the bulletproof vest, then what was the use? Not only did it hit people, but it also showed that the penetration power of the pickup truck, which was equipped with armor, was not strong enough.
Therefore, the small-caliber rifle finally lost its halo. In the war of the future, the Y Country soldiers preferred the improved version of the M14 rifle, which still used 7.62 millimeters of ammunition. Its long-range precision shooting ability and great power were very likable to the soldiers. Even if it was worth it to bring less ammunition.
Speaking up to this point, Qin Guan also thought of something. That's right. In terms of personal equipment, they still lacked a lot. In addition to the small caliber rifle problem, there was also the bulletproof vest. Although the army couldn't afford to change, the preliminary research had to be carried out. It could even be sold overseas to earn foreign currencies.
In the future, the people of Y Country had conducted experiments and discovered that the bulletproof plug-ins produced by Han Country were the most solid. They could even block one or two of the AK47.
"I suggest we research this caliber now. During the military meeting, I will try my best to convince the higher ups. Use the caliber that I am talking about. We just need to develop it in advance... When the time comes, the higher ups of the army will definitely agree. " Qin Guan said.
Preparatory research, as long as the preliminary research is done, you will have the advantage! Furthermore, Qin Guan said that he wanted to convince the higher ups, so he was naturally serious about it.
"President Qin, then what do you think? How big of a caliber should we choose? What kind of ammunition should we use?" Inspector Gao asked. He had a premonition. In the production of the Type 81 Rifle, they were the first to arrive. If they could continue to be the first to be produced in the next generation of rifles, the 2296 factory would become the largest light weapons factory in the country.
