Chapter 115 Insufficient accuracy

According to Qin Tao's plan, a replica version of the AK630 naval gun is to be installed in the front of this catamaran missile boat. Now, the hull has been completely built, the engine has been installed and debugged, and various radar and missile equipment are being installed.

At such a critical moment, something went wrong with the imitation of naval guns?

 Of course, there are alternatives, such as the navy’s most common twin-mounted 37mm anti-aircraft guns.

The anti-aircraft guns of naval warships were initially open-top and manually controlled, and the interception effect could be imagined. Later, they began to imitate the Soviet-made AK230 double-barreled naval guns. It took 18 years and was finally finalized in the late 1970s and named the Type 76 Double 37 mm naval gun, the total gun weighs 5 tons, has radar, commander and electrical follow-up system. Later, the fully enclosed and remote-controlled 76A dual 37 mm naval gun was improved. The 052 destroyer currently in production uses this kind of thing. .

This kind of twin-mounted 37mm cannon has a rate of fire that is too low to intercept modern anti-ship missiles. Even if it is installed, it is better than nothing and serves as a last resort.

To truly achieve short-range defense, you must use multi-barreled Gatling guns with a firing rate of several thousand rounds per minute to meet the requirements of the last interception line.

 So, the navy is also full of expectations for the AK630 naval gun that Qin Tao got.

 6 represents six launch tubes, and 30 represents a caliber of 30 mm. The six-tube 30 mm cannon rotates and fires. It will certainly be able to project a large number of shells in the shortest time, forming a dense barrage to meet the needs of intercepting anti-ship missiles.

Such a cannon squatting on the bow of a stealth catamaran guided missile boat is also very powerful. Qin Tao was still waiting eagerly. Who would have thought that he would get such news.

 Have you encountered technical problems with imitation?

  Supposedly there should be no problems with things like AK630! After all, the characteristic of this kind of equipment is that it has a simple structure and no high-tech equipment. It is just a product of Lao Maozi in the 1960s and 1970s. With the level of domestic copycats, what problems can there be?

“What’s the technical problem?” Qin Tao asked.

“I’m not sure about this either,” Liu Shenggen said.

The inspection of the missile launchers was quickly completed. After the military representative signed, the eight launchers were hoisted into the tail of the missile boat. The space reserved was just right. The launcher for the No. 2 missile boat was put in first. In the warehouse.

By evening, the installation was complete.

 Shipyard canteen.

"The supporting radar and other electronic equipment will also be shipped in the near future." Liu Shenggen said: "I guarantee that your assembly work will not be delayed. Although what is produced here is just an ordinary missile boat, the navy attaches great importance to it. All materials will be allocated in a timely manner.”

“We are also confident that we can complete the production of this missile boat as soon as possible.” Qin Tao raised his glass: “Brother, come on, let me toast you.”

"There are rules in our courtyard. We can't be too extravagant when we go to our brother's unit. We can only have one drink of this wine, and take our time." Liu Shenggen said.

"All of this equipment will be in place in time. It's just the gun problem. If it delays the progress, it will be troublesome. We can't get a counterweight to temporarily replace it." Qin Tao brought up this issue again.

In the production of warships, if some naval guns are not in place, there are indeed examples of using counterweights to temporarily replace them. Especially in the battleship era, when they were driven out of the production factory for sea trials, they might be cement turrets.

But in modern times, this is too childish.

"How about we go over and take a look?" Zhao Ling said, "Maybe we can help them solve the problem?"

"This..." Qin Tao hesitated.

"Other radar equipment is coming one after another. We haven't had any installation projects for the past few days. We can just take advantage of this gap to go over and take a look at the naval guns. Others may not be able to solve it, but Qin Gong is the best at creating miracles." Zhao Ling turned to look at Meng Fansheng: "Team leader, what do you think?"

 Meng Fansheng nodded: "We can't let this project delay our progress. Zhao Ling, you go there with Qin Gong tomorrow and give you three days. After dinner, I will open a letter of introduction to you."

 “Yeah.” Zhao Ling nodded.

 713 institutes.

This research institute is mainly responsible for the research and development of naval guns. Almost all kinds of naval guns of the Navy are produced from this research institute, such as 37 mm naval guns, 57 mm naval guns, 76 mm naval guns, and 100 mm naval guns. When it arrives, it will also imitate modern-class 130mm naval guns.

Since they have been deeply involved in the field of naval guns for many years, the imitation work of the AK630 naval gun was naturally handed over to them. They are very dedicated and have already copied this naval gun.

 The mushroom-headed multi-barreled machine gun stands on the shooting range of the institute, and a bunch of people are milling around this naval gun.

If you only look at the turret part above, you can see that it is very small and even a little cute. When installed on the warship, it only reveals a small mushroom-head-like turret, but in fact, underneath it, there are There is a huge ammunition supply device, and the volume below it is many times that of the top. It is estimated that an extra-large oil drum is needed to wrap the things below it.

“Every time I shoot, the accuracy is horribly low. What’s going on?” A white-haired old man looked at the bullet holes on the target paper and frowned.

 They were able to imitate it easily, but they encountered big problems during the test firing at the shooting range.

 Obviously it is only a short-range gun with a range of several kilometers, but the accuracy of the fired shells is so poor that it cannot even be compared with the old 57mm naval gun!

 The accuracy is too low, how to finalize it and deliver it to the troops? It simply doesn’t meet the requirements!

 They have a headache.

"Xia Gong, I'm wondering, is it possible that Lao Maozi's gun is originally not very accurate? Unfortunately, we only have one gun, which we disassembled for surveying and mapping. There is no way to test the shooting accuracy of the original AK630." said the technician on the side. .

“Yes, if the original accuracy is not high, then our gun will be successfully copied and can be handed over to the army.” Another technician said.

"Stop complaining!" Xia Bei, the engineer in charge of surveying and mapping the imitation gun, said: "Even if Lao Maozi's AK630 gun is not very accurate to begin with, we must work hard to improve its accuracy. We cannot make a substandard gun Weapons are provided to the Navy, otherwise it is a crime!”

 Everyone was silent.

Xia Bei continued: "If we can't improve its accuracy to a satisfactory level, then what's the point of our surveying and mapping imitation? We might as well just give it to our brother units!"

"Of course not. We are a naval gun manufacturer. If we lose to someone who manufactures aircraft cannons, it will be a shame for us!" The technicians immediately mustered up their fighting spirit.

　　Absolutely cannot lose!

"Yeah, let's use our brains and think about what went wrong." Xia Bei continued.

 “How about putting on airs?” At this moment, a voice came from behind.
