When Li Qiu and the others saw the automatic rifle that Yang Mingde had assembled, their expressions did not change.
The automatic rifle was the main weapon of the army. It was also one of the most important design projects of Li Qiu's weapon engineering specialization.
It was not just Yang Mingde. More than one-fifth of the people present considered the automatic rifle design as their graduation work.
After all, there were only a few types of weapons in the army. As the main weapon, the automatic rifle was hard not to become their choice.
And the real difference is that the automatic rifle they designed has the real parameters and performance of how they are!
"Continue!"
"Ten meter target shooting!"
Yang Mingde's mentor said.
As for the reason for choosing the ten-meter target, it was very simple. This was to test the comprehensive parameters of the weapon and not the shooting ability of the students. The ten-meter target was enough to test the vast majority of the performance.
After Yang Mingde received the order, he immediately stood up and fired a shot. The sound was slightly dull, and it seemed to be much softer than an ordinary automatic rifle.
The 8mm steel plate target used to test penetration power ten meters away was also easily penetrated.
Seeing that no one spoke, Yang Mingde continued to test the burst. He only stopped when the magazine was full of bullets.
After this process was completed, everyone present, as professionals in the military industry, looked at the temperature monitoring equipment at the side.
"Hmm?"
"The heat data is much better than the average automatic rifle?”
After seeing the heat data displayed on the testing equipment, everyone revealed a surprised expression.
Generally speaking, continuous shooting would cause the temperature of the gun barrel to rise sharply, and this high temperature would easily increase the failure rate of the gun. However, Yang Mingde effectively reduced the heat data.
Yang Mingde, who had finished the test, also maintained his standing posture. From his expression, it could be seen that he was extremely satisfied with the heat data of his gun.
However, at this time, the captain of the Special Forces, Yuan Cheng, took the gun from Yang Mingde's hand. He then squatted down and disassembled the automatic rifle into a pile of parts at a dazzling speed.
Even Li Qiu and the others who designed the weapons were far behind in terms of dismantling speed.
"You said that your gun's effective range is 450 meters, which is 50 meters higher than the normal Type 95. I also noticed that when you fired continuously just now, the recoil was obviously slightly lower than the Type 95.”
"Now, after dismantling the gun, I realized that you have re-designed the structure of the gun. You increased the range by adding more parts and added springs to absorb the recoil. However, do you know the consequences of the gun's structure and parts becoming complicated?”
"The reason why the 95 automatic rifle can be installed on a large scale is because of its simple structure and low failure rate. Even in harsh environments such as sand, the normal use of the gun will not be affected by debris.”
"Your gun has such a complicated design. If you bury it in the sand and take it out again, it will probably be scrapped. Besides, the gun barrel has been added with materials to make the sound of the gun so low.”
"Considering the practicality of the harsh battlefield, I will only give you 59 points!”
After Yuan Cheng finished his evaluation, he returned the pile of gun parts to Yang Mingde and gave him his score.
When Yang Mingde heard Yuan Cheng's first comment, he thought that Yuan Cheng was going to praise him. However, after hearing the rest of the comments and knowing his own score, his face instantly turned pale.
59 points was one point lower than the passing line. This almost made his life hang by a thread. Yang Mingde couldn't help but look at the few chief engineers from the Design Bureau.
"Captain Yuan's evaluation of your gun is very accurate. After all, we designed the gun for their frontline soldiers. They know how a gun performs on the battlefield.”
"Also, your low heat value is because you used new materials, right? With all kinds of materials added together and the complicated production line process, the manufacturing cost of your gun is twice as high as that of the 95.”
"Don't you know how many people Wu Jing has in our entire army? If we were to replace them with automatic rifles like yours, wouldn't the military expenditure be doubled?”
"Firearm design doesn't just consider the gun itself, but also the economy and costs. However, your grasp of the basics of firearm design is not bad, so I'll give you 63 points.”
Chief Master Gu from Factory 521 said.
The other three chief teachers also had the same opinion as Chief Teacher Gu, and their overall score was a little above the passing line.
In the end, Yang Mingde's overall average score was 62 points.
Although this score allowed him to pass the assessment, it was only a passing grade.
Yang Mingde's encounter also made everyone more nervous, especially those who were also designing automatic rifles. Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Following that, names were called out one by one, and they went forward to display the weapons they had designed.
Some of them designed automatic rifles, some designed grenades, and some designed combat uniforms or helmets. However, without exception, none of them had scored more than 70 points.
This kind of score and evaluation made the instructors of the Defense Technology University stand at the side and laugh bitterly. They kept shaking their heads, feeling very embarrassed.
"Aren't these people asking for too much?”
"Are the students we teach that bad?”
The instructors exchanged glances with each other, feeling helpless.
After all, the leaders of the Defense Technology University were also present today.
