Chapter 983: Installing Wings for Rocket Artillery

The land cultivated by the blacksmith village canteen is almost a test field, and the potatoes they grow are fertilized with human and animal manure from beginning to end, and when the chemical fertilizer begins to be mass-produced, ammonia is used in large quantities and steadily, and when the potatoes are basically ripe and a shovel goes down, everyone is shocked.

Between the abundance of swollen tubers enjoyed each other, it was like the presence of huge stones in the earth.

They are huge, wash the mud, and generally exceed the fist of an adult! The canteen decisively believes that this is the credit of chemical fertilizer!

The dinner was simple enough, and Yang Mingzhi burped, intending to do the hard work ahead.

Rygushkov hurriedly asked: "Start studying now?" Leaving now? I thought you'd like to visit the factory again and see the rocket launchers that we just got off the production line. ”

"You've reminded me of this! You now order the workers to suspend the final assembly of rocket artillery, when will such a project be resumed, listen to my orders! ”

In this way, the arsenal soon received the latest order, and the forging of rocket artillery bodies came to an abrupt halt, and the explosives and propellants were no longer loaded, but instead rocket-propelled grenades.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Yang Mingzhi took the lead with his briefcase and took the lead in coming to his beloved "Pripyat Weapons Design Bureau".

The significance of this "pheasant" design bureau, which is legally recognized as a guerrilla republic, is also even more important. Here, Yang Mingzhi is the top person in charge, because he is a busy man, and the daily work of the design bureau is all presided over by Popov.

As far as weapons research and development is concerned, it can be said that this design bureau lacks their director, Berekov, and the level of research and development has plummeted. All people are not only lacking in knowledge, but also lacking in insight. We can only improve the existing weapons that have been developed in a targeted manner in response to the information fed back after the war.

This tinkering effort has made weapons such as recoilless guns more and more useful, and grenades have become less powerful and more cost-effective.

When their director was in the meeting, shouting at a loud voice to develop an even crazier rocket artillery, Popov, who sat and listened in the audience, was like a chicken. Excited, he ate something casually, returned to the design department after the retail investors, and beckoned everyone to keep 120,000 serious and welcome the new "R&D campaign"!

Therefore, Yang Mingzhi's sudden visit did not cause any commotion, and when he entered the house, all the staff wearing white coats immediately stood up.

"All of them! Attention! ”

Popov gave an order like an officer, and in an instant, the room was filled with the sound of leather shoes colliding together.

Yang Mingzhi stopped for a while, and immediately felt something, and couldn't help but smile.

"Sit down, comrades! Looks like you're aware of what I'm here to do! Are you all ready? ”

"Ready!!"

There was another sonorous roar.

"Very good, then pick up the ruler, we must use the shortest possible time to design a rocket launcher with at least three times the range!"

By the time Rigushkov and Ivanov arrived, Yang Mingzhi had been working for a while.

The Chinese, who had just become a Soviet, put on his military uniform with medals in a white coat, crouched on the table, and drew a picture on a white piece of paper. The same was true for the rest of the staff, so that the large office of the design bureau was silent, and for the moment no one was talking to each other, except for the rustle of pencils across paper.

The two will not be personally involved in the design of the weapon, one will be responsible for the charge and the other will be responsible for the manufacture, and they will provide advice and feedback on the improved rocket launcher from the perspective of their own specialty.

……

Yang Mingzhi's purpose was to create a rocket with wings attached.

This type of missile structure is very common in cruise missiles in later generations, the rocket engine at the tail of the missile body pushes the whole forward, and the limited lift provided by the wings allows it to overcome the earth's gravity and achieve a state of vector motion.

It's just that the missiles of later generations are very sophisticated and more powerful.

In this era, in the late spring and early summer of 1942, rockets had just entered the stage of war on a large scale.

Yang Mingzhi did not know when the German rockets would be used in the war against the British, and although the technical characteristics of that rocket were very primitive, they did provide the initial blueprint for all cruise missiles and even carrier rockets in later generations.

The famous V1 rocket, it is simply an aircraft filled with explosives, powered by a pulse jet engine, and the wide wings provide lift to make it fly steadily. However, it is still a kind of rocket, and it can be launched at England after the Zhu Yuan is set, and as for whether it falls in the urban area of the city to be hit, it can only be left to fate.

Therefore, the Japanese army in the kamikaze of the sunset, their fighter jets were filled with explosives, relying on living people to control them, ramming the US warship to complete the martyrdom, to a certain extent, isn't it the tactical effect achieved by anti-ship missiles? This kind of systematic treatment of pilots as consumables eventually ended up as a laughing stock of "people are afraid of missiles."

In this era, rocket weapons are still in the dawn period, the German V2 rocket must not have been put into operation, and the Soviet Katyusha rocket artillery has been put into combat on a large scale, and its range is even less than that of large-caliber howitzers.

If his overhaul of rocket artillery can change this status quo, not to mention how fierce the rocket artillery will replace the war, as the inventor, he will win a great honor and leave a resounding name in the history of the world.

As soon as he thought of this, Yang Mingzhi realized how crazy he was to make a rocket artillery with a range of 30 kilometers!

In the eyes of others, this is very crazy, but for himself, a traverser, because he has the knowledge of several eras in later generations, it is not difficult to create such a tactical weapon with only the current conditions.

In the previous "Night Battle", Yang Mingzhi relied on a fountain pen to perform complex calculations on various rough papers.

He needs to figure out that the existing rocket structure should not be modified, where to install the wing without destroying the aerodynamic layout, whether the wing should choose a self-wing or a swept wing, this is the biggest problem.

Eventually, that night he finalized his plan.

That is, the wings are installed on both sides of the missile body, at a certain fixed length from the warhead, and the wings are twisted into a frame by iron wire, wrapped by thin iron sheets, and the wings are swept wings.

Because the end of the rocket has a narrowed spout, there are four tails on it, and the tail fins must be increased in order to ensure stable flight.

What Yang Mingzhi drew was just a sketch, and the general structure of the improved rocket was already very clear. Many designers, as long as they follow the ideas of the director of the bureau, Berekov, keep their heads down and draw his sketches into standard design drawings.

The design bureau then made large-scale revisions to the process drawings previously delivered to the arsenal, and almost all that was left was the approval of the director.

After learning of these arrangements, Riguskov and Ivanov were just a little bored sitting there, and they didn't have the heart to leave, and they talked about the two of them squatting at the door of the office, smoking cigarettes and rockets.

They were smoking, and the office was still full of fire.

Time passed little by little, and it gradually passed midnight, and the time was already May 8th.

After a total of four hours of fighting, until one o'clock in the morning, Yang Mingzhi finally ended his battle. Looking at the huge drawing in front of him, he said to himself: "If I give it to Moscow, the arsenal over there will immediately start production, and the Soviet army's rocket artillery will have the range of large-caliber naval guns!" ”

This is in Chinese, no one can understand it, Yang Mingzhi raised his head and looked at the others, some of them had stopped to rest with their backs against their chairs, and some were still meticulously drawing on the ruler.

"Everyone work harder, we must draw the drawings of all parts of the rocket, so that it can be delivered to the arsenal to produce it as soon as possible!"

This burst of encouragement is like a cup of coffee, and the embarrassed researcher recovers his spirits!
