The test of the sniper cannon at the shooting range behind the Red Flag Military Factory was a great success!
In the afternoon,
The entire Red Flag Military Factory held a celebratory banquet to celebrate the success of the gun test.
The factory did not have the money to hold a banquet because the last of the money was invested in the development and testing of the sniper cannon.
The workers brought out their home-brewed rice wine. The chefs in the factory cooked some decent dishes and held a simple celebration of the gun test.
Many of the workers were so drunk that they wished they could get drunk!
That night.
The factory manager, Liu Guoliang, made an important decision.
The firearms project of the " LG5 Sniper Grenade Launcher " was officially launched at the Red Flag Military Factory.
He, Su Chen, and Wang Yan went to the market to get orders.
The next day.
Liu Guoliang, Su Chen, and Director Wang Yan took the ten test LG5 sniper grenade launchers and set off early in the morning to the National Defense Bureau in the capital.
If the Xia Country's military was willing to purchase these firearms, the Red Flag Military Factory would be able to eat until it was full. They would not have to worry about the next ten years.
Chief Engineer Li Rong stayed in the Red Flag Military Factory to organize the workers to assemble the official production line and start the mass production of the PG sniper grenade launcher.
Although there were no orders yet,
However, the factory manager, Liu Guoliang, and everyone else had a strong premonition.
This sniper cannon would definitely sell like hotcakes.
It would probably become Red Flag Military Factory's best-selling weapon in history.
Of course, they had to hurry up and set up production to prevent orders from coming, but the production line had not been assembled yet, and it would be difficult to deliver the goods.
Everyone in the Red Flag Military Factory was afraid of poverty and hunger!
He was eager to seize this opportunity to eat a mouthful of greasy fat meat.
...
Imperial Capital's National Defense Bureau.
Logistics Department, Purchasing Division.
Liu Guoliang, the factory manager, and Wang Yan, the director, pushed the door open and entered the office of Director Wu Qing of the Purchasing Department.
Su Chen didn't go in. He was admiring the scenery in the corridor outside.
Old Wu from the National Defense Bureau was an acquaintance of his father's generation, so it was better for him to avoid suspicion.
"Aiyo, Old Liu, what brings you out!”
Chief Physician Wu Qing was making tea as he said with a smile.
The National Defense Purchasing Division often contacted the military design institutes and factories across the country.
Liu Guoliang, the factory manager of the Red Flag Military Factory, was an old acquaintance.
However, in the past, he could just call her to tell her anything.
Why did he come personally this time?
"Director Wu, our Red Flag Factory has designed a new type of firearm. It's extremely powerful and powerful. I'm here to sell it!”
Liu Guoliang laughed.
"Oh, what kind of gun is it?”
Wu Qing was curious.
"We call this thing a sniper cannon. It's held by a single soldier. The caliber is 40mm, the gun weighs 30 pounds, and the accurate range is 1,000 meters.”
Old Liu said proudly.
"What?"
Wu Qing almost spat out a mouthful of hot tea.
40mm caliber?
30 pounds?
He ordered the soldiers to carry a 30-pound gun onto the battlefield.
This was crazy!
Besides guns, soldiers also had bulletproof vests, ammunition, food, shovels, and other supplies.
They hadn't reached the battlefield yet. They would probably die of exhaustion from the weight on the way.
"Old Liu, didn't you read the military's firearms development guidelines?
Losing weight!
Losing weight!
Guns all over the world were becoming smaller in caliber. While ensuring their power, they were also thinking of ways to reduce the pressure on soldiers and logistics.
"Our country has already confirmed that the 5.8mm caliber firearm will be the main weapon for individual soldiers.
You suddenly fiddled with a 40mm caliber and weighed 30 pounds. You're crazy. Can this army accept you?”
"What small caliber?
Only when the firepower was fierce enough would it be the absolute truth!
Director Wu, tell me if your logistics department is purchasing or not.”
Liu Guoliang was instantly annoyed.
He was not convinced!
The sniper cannon in his hand was much more powerful.
"Old Liu,
I'm not the only one who has the final say in military procurement.
This goes against the military's plan for the development of small-caliber firearms. It involves tactical strategy and logistical adjustments, and requires the military to discuss it.
At the very least, it would take half a year to research and prove it!
At least for half a year, the military will definitely not place an order for you!”
Wu Qing thought for a moment and shook his head solemnly.
A brand-new firearm was equipped to the troops of Xia country.
This was a big deal.
What weapons did a squad carry and what level of tactical missions did they complete?!
What kind of weapons could a company carry and how much combat power could it bring?!
Just the discussion alone would take at least a few months.
It was a trend for the world to have smaller caliber firearms.
The 5.8mm caliber set by China to reduce the burden on the soldiers took more than ten years of practice and discussion before it was finally decided.
This wasn't a decision he, the director of the Department of Defense's procurement department, could make.
Regardless of the gun's performance, it had to pass the military's seminar first.
He could only purchase from the equipment that the military had already confirmed was allowed to be carried.
For example, the 40mm sniper cannon that the Red Flag Military Factory had created was the only one in the world. It was too strange and could not enter the military's purchase list.
"Half a year?"
Liu Guoliang was stunned.
This was too long.
The Red Flag Military Factory was in a very difficult situation now. Even the last of its funds were invested in the development and production of sniper grenade launchers.
The deadline given by the country to the Red Flag Military Factory was half a year.
After half a year, even if the military passed the seminar, the Red Flag Military Factory would be long gone. It would have gone bankrupt and reorganized!
He couldn't wait!
"This is too long!"
Wang Yan, who was sitting on a stool at the side, immediately became anxious.
However, when Director Wu was talking to the factory director, he, the director of a small military factory, did not dare to interrupt.
Oh right,
Su Chen!
He quickly asked Su Chen, who had designed this gun, to come in and explain the super powerful performance of this sniper cannon to Director Wu. He wanted to see if he could move Director Wu.
He asked Director Wu to speed up the progress of the sniper cannon's discussion in the military.
