It wasn't difficult for Base 618 to build a tank cannon.
Be it 120mm, 125mm, or even 155mm rifled guns or smoothbore guns, there was not much of a problem.
The biggest problem was still the cannon steel technology, and Lu Xuan was currently solving this problem.
However, in order to aim the shells more accurately, they had to rely on the aiming radar.
That day, Lu Xuan gathered the relevant leaders and experts to discuss these issues.
"Director Yan, Base 541 builds tanks. I hope that you can call the relevant experts who develop tank cannons over first and work with our comrades in the base's artillery research and development department to develop and produce tank cannons.”
"That's not a problem. However, if we don't build the tank first, how are we going to test the tank cannon after it's trial-produced?”Yan Qingshan asked.
Lu Xuan thought for a moment and said," Just get a 59 tank and install a new type of cannon on it."”
"Of course, our new tank cannon is a 125mm smoothbore cannon, while the Type 59 tank has a 120 cannon.”
"How to install the 125 cannon on the Type 59 turret and how to install the cannon stability system are the matters of Base 541.”
Yan Qingshan nodded." We will solve these problems. However, I can't arrange the other electronic, computer, and material problems related to tanks."”
"Get your men and the Type-59 tank ready. I'll get Chief Wang to assist you.”Lu Xuan looked at Wang Mingyi and said.
"Comrade Little Lu, there are a lot of things to do here." Wang Mingyi frowned.”
"The accuracy of the 336 rocket launcher needs to be improved, and the infrared guidance function of the Red Arrow anti-tank missile needs to be strengthened.”
" The performance of the extended Black Arrow anti-air missiles needs to be improved. We don't have enough people…"
Lu Xuan felt a headache coming on. He had come up with the Red Arrow individual infrared anti-tank missile.
These old guys immediately came up with an anti-helicopter anti-air missile named Black Arrow.
This was the complete implementation of his spirit of creating a product first before establishing a project.
I heard that they are also preparing to get air-to-air missiles, air-to-ground missiles
Fortunately, Base 618's 336 rocket launchers, cloud explosives, and Red Arrow rocket launchers had shown their prowess in the monkey battlefield. The military had a steady stream of orders, and they had the full support of their boss, Zhao Xingguo.
Otherwise, how could they have so much money to support the research and development of these new projects?
"You can arrange this yourself. Let's take a look at the cannon aiming radar designed by Lei Wo first.”
Lu Xuan did not care much about that. The new project was all up to them, and he had no say in how the manpower was arranged.
In any case, the higher-ups had said that they would focus on the research and development of the new tank.
Wang Mingyi rolled his eyes when he saw that Lu Xuan was not doing anything.
"Everyone knows about the situation at the Monkey Battlefield.”
"Especially the large-caliber mortars. Without radar, it's not enough to rely on scouts.”
" We must equip the artillery unit with a gun aiming radar. Our tanks must also be equipped with this thing…"
Lu Xuan sighed as he laid out his design blueprint for the gun aiming radar on the conference table.
Ever since Monkey experienced the power of the Type 336 rocket launcher and the fuel-air explosives, he changed their strategy.
They rarely engaged in large-scale battles, and their artillery had learned their lesson.
The change of location after the first shot gave the commander of the rabbit frontline a headache.
For this reason, the higher-ups of the military were talking to Hans Cat, Gaul Chicken, and other countries about the introduction of the cannon aiming radar.
Lu Xuan heard that Hans Cat and Gallic Chicken were asking for very high prices.
Lu Xuan did not want the rabbit family's few foreign currency to be earned away by them.
Wouldn't it be nice to give this small amount of money to Base 618?
"Comrade Little Lu, this little thing should be very simple, right? What's there to deal with?”
Although Yang Changgen didn't know much about technology, he could still understand some basic blueprints.
If Lu Xuan wanted to build an anti-air radar or the legendary active phased array radar, he would be all for it.
After all, that thing was bigger, more useful, and more profitable.
However, Director Yang was not interested in this cannon aiming radar.
Lu Xuan felt his heart ache again. He was most afraid of these leaders who did not understand technology.
"Director Yang, this cannon-aiming radar is not simple. It involves a lot of technology."”
"The gun aiming radar is mainly a radio transmitter and receiver, and then it is calculated by a computer.”
"From there, we can capture the trajectory of the cannonball and quickly deduce the location of the enemy artillery position.”
"If our powerful artillery can add this thing, it will be like adding wings to a tiger…"
Lu Xuan did not tell him anything more complicated, as he would not understand even if he did.
For example, the gun aiming radar worked in the centimeter wave band or higher.
For example, according to the angle tracking method, it was divided into conical scanning radar, monopulse radar, and so on.
Monopulse radars, on the other hand, were not affected by the amplitude of the echo signal and had higher tracking accuracy.
Of course, the technical requirements for the monopulse radar were much higher. Even Ying-chan was still in the early stages of this.
" Centimeter wave research isn't difficult, but we don't have advanced computers with computing power or chips with higher image processing capabilities…" Yan Qingshan said with a frown.
Cannon targeting radar was neither difficult nor simple.
Especially in this era where computers were just starting out.
Without enough computing power, the aiming radar was a joke.
Yan Qingshan's question was indeed very professional and sharp.
This problem was very difficult for any military unit in the rabbit family to achieve.
However, it wasn't a difficult task for Base 618.
Before Lu Xuan could answer, Yang Changgen suddenly widened his eyes.
"Don't we have a computer research center?”
Yang Changgen knew that Lu Xuan had designed an integrated circuit chip back then.
He even poached a research and development team from Base 631 to Base 618.
He even ignored his own objections and spent a huge sum of money to build a computer research building.
After spending so many resources, it was time for those people in the computer field to contribute.
Lu Xuan smiled." Director Yang is right. We're almost done with the research and development of the small computer.”
"What? You're doing research on microcomputers? And it's about to bear fruit?" Yan Qingshan was in disbelief.
Computer science was a bottomless pit. It was so difficult that even the country was helpless in this aspect.
"Hehe, Director Yan, our base has long had the foresight.”
"Otherwise, Comrade Little Lu wouldn't have suggested building a cannon aiming radar.”
Yang Changgen suddenly felt that he had shown his face in front of his brothers.
Lu Xuan's insistence on computer research was a wise move.
Without the support of the highest leader of the base, it would not be possible.
