C1984 Choosing Difficult Syndrome
The factory was full of orders day and night. This was the start of the production, and the workers also fell from their shifts. And now, as more and more orders were issued, they were even busier.
When Factory 4447 was changed to North Heavy Truck Factory, the benefits doubled, and the workers' salaries increased. The benefits were very high, and many of the old workers in Factory 6617 had changed their investment to North Heavy Truck Factory. At that time, the Factory 6617 had truly been at a low point of its life. It was only when a large number of orders were delivered that the place regained its vitality. As for now, not only the Factory 6617, but the entire Grassland City had replaced the old industrial base in the northeastern direction of the Han Country. This place had become the most important industrial base in Han Country, Tanke City.
The lights in the factory were shining. It was already late at night. After arranging for Boris to stay, Qin Guan personally accompanied him for dinner before coming to the workshop.
The production line was divided into several parts, some were producing 79 tanks. Some were modifying 59 tanks, and the transformation of 59 tanks was divided into two parts. Some were tanks, while others were Infantry Tank. Just like that, the inside was very busy.
In a corner of the main assembly line, a gas turbine engine had already been dismantled into a box outside. When Elder Zhu's assistant calculated all kinds of data back and forth, he was even more delighted. "We don't need to make any improvements. We just need to stuff it in directly!"
The power unit and this place were actually perfectly matched. President Qin's design was simply too awesome.
At this moment, the power unit was on the crane. It slowly walked down and stuffed it into the engine compartment at the back. Then, it was fixed and stuffed into the drive shaft. It was all very suitable. It was simply tailor-made!
"It's too late today. We still need to install all kinds of pipes. We can go and try it tomorrow." Elder Zhu was already impatient. This was a gas turbine, the most advanced power system in the world!
"But, I don't know what kind of fuel this thing is burning." Someone suddenly remembered.
The gas turbine was modified from the Aeromotor, so it should be powered by the most precise aviation fuel. The tanks here were all diesel fuel, so what kind of fuel should they use?
Should they ask Arms Dealer?
Just as a new problem appeared, Qin Guan opened his mouth and said, "This is easy to solve. It is a multi-fuel-mixed engine, and it can use any kind of fuel."
Qin Guan had a deep impression of what kind of fuel this gas turbine used. In Qin Guan's time and space, during the joint exercise between Han Country and Bear Country, originally, they had agreed that their tanks could burn any kind of fuel. But in the end, when they arrived, they refused to add any diesel. Thus, the logistics department ran to the road overnight and loaded a few vehicles of aviation oil back. Only then did they add diesel.
Some people said that they did it on purpose to test their own ability to protect themselves in emergencies. Some also said that they were too lazy to clean the oil road and could exchange it for diesel. However, they needed to clean the pipes of the aviation oil inside.
In fact, even the T-72 tanks of their diesel engines could use all kinds of fuel. After all, on the battlefield, it was impossible for the supplies to be in place every time. When needed, everything could be used. It could even be mixed. There was no problem.
This was the charm of a multi-fuel-mixed engine. It had little reliance on logistics. Now, seeing the new car being solicitously loaded into sample No. 3, Qin Guan sighed in his heart.
"This type of tank is one size smaller than our Type 79 tank." Elder Zhu said, "So, we have been worrying about its engine recently. How would we know that the engine we got from Bear Country is actually quite suitable."
Facing Elder Zhu's sigh, Qin Guan also sighed in his heart. This was his own negligence. At that time, in order to trick Sanctity Country, he directly took out the blueprint of this Khaled Tank, but he had forgotten the pattern of the tank's development.
For a long time, the Han Country could only rely on the 59 tanks to conquer the world. On top of that, the modified 69,79 tanks. There were no fundamental changes, but the west had already begun to develop. Therefore, the Han Country expanded on the chassis of this type of tank. They created 80 tanks, and finally developed to 85-3 tanks.
This type of tank adopted the design of six pairs of Load Wheel. The engine was expanded from the original 59 tank engine. It was equipped with 105 mm cannons, expanded the seat ring, and could also be equipped with 125 mm cannons.
In that era, the country did not have the funds to equip them. They could only take the path of external exports to open up a foreign market. This type of tank successfully opened the door to Sanctity Country and exported foreign currencies. This allowed the tank workers to see hope, and they further developed 90-2 tanks.
As for the Khaled Tank, it was developed on the basis of the 90 tanks. Just by looking at this development pattern, one would know that it was the same as the main tank of their own side. It was a completely different route. In an instant, their side had expanded to the scale of the western side. As for the Khaled Tank, it had the characteristics of the Bear Country.
Actually, the new generation of tanks in the Han Country was also like this. The initial 96 tanks were basically mimicking the T-72 tanks. When it reached 99 tanks, they started to move towards the west. These two types of tanks basically had no inheritability.
In that era, Han Country simply did not have a mature and reliable engine. When choosing 90 tanks as the foundation to develop the Khaled Tank, they would inevitably face the problem of choosing the engine. Later on, after many comparisons, they chose the 6TD engine.
Qin Guan ignored all of this and directly revealed the design of the Khaled Tank. He would definitely face the awkwardness of not having an engine to use. A civilian engine was even more unsuitable. Even if there was enough power, the volume would not be enough.
Now, it was a coincidence. Coincidentally, it was Arms Dealer from Bear Country who provided the engine.
The 6TD engine was originally intended for the T-80 tank to change into a new one. In the middle of the 1980s, the Bear Country's Molozov Design Bureau started to operate the diesel version of the T-80, so the power packs of the two were almost the same.
Now that it was a perfect replacement, it should be pretty good to try it out. So the question was, should they really use this type of engine?
Now, it really gave him a difficult problem!
Qin Guan had a difficult choice. After all, this engine belonged to Bear Country. Now, even if it was suitable, he was afraid that it wouldn't change the decision of Sanctity Country. After all, the engine was the heart. There must be a stable source.
"President Qin, there is new news. The guests from Sanctity Country will come to Han Country tomorrow. I estimate that they will come to Grassland City tomorrow afternoon. They are looking forward to meeting you."1
After hearing the news from the Elementary Scholar, Qin Guan scratched his head even more. We haven't even tested it yet, and they are already here?
