Chapter 1154 The issue of cannon
As soon as Lin Mo finished speaking, everyone asked again, mainly about other caliber weapons and the details of the requirements were explained one by one.
"There are also metal bullet links on the bullet links. They run on the water every day, which is wet and damp. The canvas bullet links are afraid that they will not be suitable, which will cause many faults and problems. Of course, semi-dispersible and anti-rust treatment is also used.
In addition, we need to study some accessories simultaneously. In addition to muzzles, tripods, etc., we also need to make some parallel components and accessories, such as double-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square-square
After explaining some other situations one by one, the topic finally got the focus and talked about the issues on artillery.
"For cannons, the main equipment is mortars. I have chosen many types of calibers, starting from sixty mm, eighty or eighty two, one hundred, one hundred, one hundred and fifty, a total of seven types.
Sixty, August 1 or August 2, the government may make arrangements on these two calibers. Remember to communicate and finalize the specific details. For the others, we will decide on our own and just round them up."
After Lin Mo finished speaking, the conference table was a little noisy, and someone asked me soon, and Lin Mo still patiently answered and explained one by one.
But the question that is asked more is not a question that cannot be solved. This is not surprising. At the Northeast Arsenal, there were many mortars of various calibers in the Northeast Arsenal, and Lin Mo also explained in advance that the weight can be relaxed a lot. They are all knowledgeable and naturally understand that this can greatly reduce the difficulty.
Their questions were mainly focused on whether the ship could withstand the back seat, the length of the tube and the addition of the bullet, the viewing and aiming issues, etc.
For these, such as recoil, the hull can be reinforced, so the body tube cannot be too short. After all, the range is hooked to it. As for the problem of extending the bullet, you can choose the breech!
It is a big problem to look at the eye. After all, the recoil may cause the hull to shake and move, especially when a small boat carries cannons, this problem will be more obvious.
Lin Mo has no good idea for the time being, so he can only ask them to get some training bullets, strengthen training, use the gunner's skills to minimize the impact in this aspect.
"The mortar structure reference, especially the small and medium caliber, is used as a reference for the Bronde M1927 81mm mortar. I personally feel that this model is very classic in structure and can be used more.
Of course, when used on a ship, the seat plate can be omitted, and the hull can be directly used as the seat plate, and the gun frame can be added with a guide rail and fixed on the ship for steering adjustments.
However, relevant research cannot be saved. This is a good opportunity. Apart from the early stage of concentrating efforts, once a breakthrough is made and the prototype is completed, we must quickly start the research and strive to produce results as soon as possible."
Lin Mo seized the gap and made some supplements, but just after he finished speaking, all kinds of new and old problems came again, and the structure of the cannon, ammunition problems, etc., made Lin Mo's mind explode.
Even though he had already made a lot of preparations in advance, Lin Mo was still confused for an hour! The crowd of people who were talking nonsense stopped reluctantly.
"The issue of mortars will be discussed for the time being. There may be some additions in the future, but you should also wait until you have come up with the initial results and discuss them according to the situation."
Lin Mo opened his mouth and looked around. Most people nodded in agreement, saying that the materials were in place and it should not be used for too long. After all, small and medium-sized caliber, just add a shelf to the tube, and it was made very quickly.
However, a few people still asked questions, and Lin Mo still answered them one by one. Of course, the reply was limited to his cognition and ability. There were many questions that he could not answer.
"Captain Lin, aren't you really allowed to issue a straight-sighting gun on the ship? There is no problem with the water police not worthy of it, but the boat troops are not worthy of it, so the firepower is a bit not enough!"
One person spoke at the conference table, and the others also looked at each other. Obviously, this may be considered, but they are more interested in it, which must also include some reasons.
"The boat and boat troops are mainly small boats. Even if they are equipped with serious cannons, their caliber and power will be almost impossible to threaten the enemy's large ships in the future.
As for the opponent's small boat, the effect is not necessarily poor when using machine guns and other rapid firepower, because the boat is small and the target is small. With the current gunfire accuracy, and the boat cannot avoid ups and downs and shaking, it is difficult to hit the target.
In this way, the advantages of rapid firepower are more obvious. By the way, remember to develop tracer bombs and indicate ballistics with tracer bombs. The advantages will be more obvious.
What I mean by serious cannons is just about your attitude towards mortars and other artillery, but in my opinion, I personally think that mortars are more practical for us.
First, our technology and production capacity are relatively low, while mortars, whether they are guns or shells, are less difficult to produce and supply in large quantities.
The cost of the two is low, both guns and shells are the same, and they can be used; the power of the third is at least the lethality of the personnel. At the same caliber, the mortar is loaded with more drugs, and its drop is almost vertical, and the damage to personnel is no worse than other artillery.
The third point combines one or two points, and in the foreseeable future, it is expected to become the key firepower for us to attack the enemy. Therefore, I also hope that everyone will not be biased against this and do their best to complete this work.
Of course, mortars cannot replace the role of other artillery, and arrangements will definitely be made in the future, but the premise is to complete the work of the mortar first."
After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, either meditating or showing shame on their faces. Some even cast respectful gazes at Lin Mo, which made Lin Mo a little embarrassed.
"As for the boat and boat troops, there is indeed a need for direct firepower. After careful consideration, I have two solutions that should be able to barely solve their needs.
One is that some small-caliber anti-aircraft guns are loaded onto the ship, with a long range and a slow rate of fire. For them, they should be more suitable. Of course, this can only be purchased from outside.
Another solution is that I designed a cannon. Of course, whether it can be used is still a question. The main reason is that these are relatively new, and whether the results can be achieved will be different."
After Lin Mo said that, he took out a few copies of the design information from the briefcase he had thrown with him and handed it to everyone for circulating it. Of course, he also did not forget to give Section Chief Xu one.
"Before, I have read some information about the development of recoil-free guns abroad. After carefully studying its principles, I designed a new recoil-free configuration.
These are the sketches I drew, with some relevant information from foreign research. Now I would like to ask all professionals to help you see if it is reasonable? Is it possible to achieve it."
Lin Mo painted the classic big butt configuration, which is the structure used by the domestic 82 recoil-free cannon. Although he is not very clear about the details, the general structure is still relatively clear.
Everyone quickly gathered into a few piles, and they communicated while flipping through them. From time to time, some people exclaimed and communicated with each other, and finally came to a consensus conclusion, which was very feasible.
"Captain Lin is such a clever idea! To be honest, this design is at most a little added to the details, which is a brand new type of equipment. Even if the rear seat cannot be completely reduced, the recoil will definitely be reduced most of the time."
One of them spoke with some emotion. Lin Mo quickly waved his hand and said, "It's not a clever idea. I just look at foreign designs. I'm on the other end of the cannon, loading medicine and adding counterweights.
I wondered whether the gun barrel could be penetrated and a single charge was used. After all, once the firecrackers were blown up, the mud on both ends could collapse. It should be fine if used in the gun, and then it should be improved based on this."
Lin Mo talked nonsense, but it caused everyone to praise her. Lin Mo was helpless and didn't explain much, just asking everyone whether this design plan was feasible and whether it could be made.
"There should be no problem. Both ends are connected, and the chamber pressure they are subjected to has dropped significantly. It is required that it should not be much higher than the mortar. You can use pipes at hand. After the design is improved, a prototype can be produced for testing soon."
The person who spoke just now replied, and another person took the conversation and said, "It's okay to load it on the ship. If you really don't have recoil, the boat will probably be equipped with a larger caliber artillery than a mortar. Of course, there are also restrictions. The tail flames are more troublesome places, and there will be certain troubles in use."
Lin Mo nodded and added: "I designed two types of artillery ammunition. One is to load shells regularly and create a large number of holes in the shell casing. The technical difficulty is probably not high, but it may be time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Another type of projectile is like a mortar shell, with a tail tube and a mortar rod, and it is like a mortar. I feel that after some adaptation design, the tail rod can be attached to the mortar shell when necessary, so its caliber, if there is no special need, can be consistent with the mortar."
Everyone nodded. After all, the battlefield is changeable. If necessary, it can be used. If it is necessary, it can be used with great use. Moreover, the unified caliber can save a lot of trouble when processing pipes.
However, whether it can be feasible still needs to be confirmed by experiments. Lin Mo did not let everyone talk more, and the topic quickly went to other aspects.
Although all guns and cannons have been discussed, food, clothing and housing are also part of the military supplies, and the order for at least 3,000 people is not small.
Most importantly, these products can be pushed to the boating forces, which will take a step further towards supplying military supplies, rather than just now, only the intelligence department can provide a small amount of demand and make small fuss in their own territory.
Therefore, Lin Mo also paid enough attention to these aspects. After reading the information that Wu Liangdong prepared in advance, Lin Mo added a lot of opinions to these aspects.
After answering questions and answering questions for everyone, Xu Guyu reminded him of the relevant confidentiality requirements, and after signing a confidentiality agreement, he dissolved the meeting and took Wu Liangdong with him to leave.
The confidentiality agreement was suggested by Lin Mo. He felt that when facing these people, some things should be done more formally, not because they do not trust the other party, but because they feel respected.
The effect is indeed there. These people did not show resistance to this, and many people even signed their names solemnly after reading the terms seriously.
"…Young people are so terrifying..." Xu Gu Yu handed back the information Lin Mo gave him, patted him on the shoulder, and sighed, but Lin Mo was uncomfortable and suspicious.
"What are you thinking about? Just let go and do it boldly. As your mentor, will I still be jealous of you boy?" What did Lin Mo think about? How could he not know? He cursed in anger.
Lin Mo beat up and fooled things. He must be jealous, but he wouldn't say that if Xu Gu Yu could say this, it wouldn't be a big problem.
Everyone got into the car and soon arrived at the place that had been agreed upon with Scott in advance. Scott was already in the room and had been waiting for a while.
The four of them are all acquaintances. Wu Liangdong has had a lot of contact with him. He used to cooperate with foreign intelligence forces, and Scott was also involved in it, making a link between them. Xu Guyu was responsible for the docking, and the two sides also had a lot of contact.
After sitting down, I didn't talk directly. I ate first and talked about it. The three of them were still hungry! There were many negotiations, and it might not be possible to handle it in a short while.
"...Lin...What big thing happened? Why are you all here?" The light crew intersected, of course, drinking tea, Scott quietly came over and asked Lin Mo.
"You can't guess, don't worry, there is a big order for you to do. This time, it will definitely be enough for you to make a fortune!"
Lin Mo responded a few times, picked up two more chopsticks of dishes, but somehow stopped and looked at Scott.
"No, you guys have something to do! Being able to ask that question means you are not sure about our goal, but it shouldn't be normal.
To put it another way, it is very likely that you kid did something wrong and felt guilty, so he came to get close to me, right?
Old Wu is here too. He comes together, not to give you an order, but other things will be related to him. You kid, can you make any articles in the goods you supply? Use inferior products as good ones? Or cut corners?"
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Scott's hand, who was about to pick up the food, stopped in the air, and the other two were also looking at each other, and the atmosphere was a little frozen for a moment.
Seeing the few people scrutinizing their eyes, Scott quickly waved his hand and said innocently: "There is absolutely nothing to be inferior to good, cut corners, I just asked curiously."
"Olds, be honest. You are no longer asking for advice when you put on that innocent look. If you can't make it clear, then we have to consider this big order carefully."
Looking at Lin Mo's mature appearance, Scott was helpless and said, "Lin, you are really getting more and more talented now. Just like the people in your country say, like an old fox!"
"…Ha..." As soon as Scott said this, he made Xu Guyu laugh out loud. Although he immediately put it back, his appearance still made Lin Mo's mouth twitch.
Seeing the embarrassment resolved, Scott hurriedly said, "I will declare first that I will never do the things that are inferior to good and cut corners, and I will never do it, but I do have some things that I can't help myself..."
