Thirty sets of fire control computers, electronic systems, and radio modules on HQ-1/2 missiles account for about half of the cost of the entire air defense missile system.Following the export of the Field Artillery Computer, the Bureau of Electronics and Information Industry took another large order.
1953年野战炮兵计算机还有三分之一左右的订单,上半年交付完毕。从1953年1月开始陆续交付30套红旗-1/2导弹系统的套件,这一笔出口订单的价格也不比野战炮兵计算机少多少。
The war is over, and the military and electronics industries are part of the business.Tang Hua's frequency of settlement may be higher than that of the Minister of Foreign Trade.
Last year, the breakthrough in the use of computers by the Soviet government was opened, and sales rose by a large margin. By 1953, monthly sales had stabilized on one platform, and we had to wait for the next explosive point.
"The Soviet Union really took the initiative to ask if there is an artillery computer for the coastal fortress?" Tang Hua asked Ye Jizhuang on the phone.
"Yes, they say, several fortresses in the Soviet Union, Poland and East Germany need about 50 units."
The anti-ship missiles that have been promised to the Soviet Union can actually be used as shore-to-ship versions. Therefore, Tang Hua used to think that the Soviet Union would gradually abolish the coastal fort artillery, at least the long-range artillery, and only keep the small and medium-caliber fortress artillery for anti-landing.But no, it seems that the Soviet army does not intend to lose these fortress guns.
"Soviet comrades will give it to us, no problem, China and the Soviet Union are good comrades and good brothers," Tang Hua said, "But, Minister Ye, you have to inoculate them, just say that the design cost of this computer accounts for a lot of money." A considerable part of the cost, the order quantity of 50 coastal fort artillery computers is slightly small, so the price will be slightly higher."
"Okay, I'll remind them next time I talk."
……
50 coastal fort artillery computers... enough for what.Small list Small list.It's definitely not a hit.
Tang Hua opened the unfinished plan in his hand.
It is a three-dimensional internal structure diagram of a T-54/55 tank.
In a place inside the tank, Tang Hua circled a cubic area by himself. This space can be equipped with new equipment without any impact on the operation of the tank.
This is the breaking point, the fire control computer.
For field artillery computers, the order quantity is several hundred.For coastal fort artillery computers, the order quantity is dozens of units.
T-54/55 tanks, the Soviet Union produced nearly 5 tanks, and now produces 3000 tanks per year, with an annual output of 5000 tanks during the peak period!
What is the concept of a fire control system computer that delivers five thousand tanks a year?It is the concept that the entire Electronic Information Industry Bureau has to eat and choke.Even if the fire control computer has a single function and a simple structure, it is not easy to sell it at a high price, but the quantity is here, so there is no need to worry about other things.
For the Soviet Army, the T-55 was followed by the T-62.The model is updated and replaced, and the annual output is several thousand.In other words, once the list of tank fire control computers is taken down, and the technological and cost advantages are maintained, the Soviet Army can form a consumption habit and fix it, and it will be able to eat this bowl of rice in the next 30 to [-] years.

"Zhang Jue, your computer R&D team is going to split again."
In the office building of the Electronic Information Industry Bureau, Tang Hua said to Zhang Jue.
"Last time, a third of the people were split to work on the computer encryption system. Oh, they are all working in Team X now. This time, you have to split half and half to develop the computer for the tank fire control system. Okay. Okay, don't worry about being too busy, this year's fresh interns have been working here for three months, and when the interns get their diplomas, the two split groups will give priority to selecting people."
Chapter 81, Garrison Taiping Island
Developing a tank fire control computer is much more troublesome than a field artillery computer.
The Field Artillery Computer was a separate device, a portable, military, specialized computational transistor computer.
The fire control computer on the tank needs to be linked with the artillery, the turret, and the sensor.In the end, it is very likely that the product developed is not a computer, but a complete fire control system.
After all, the active infrared night vision device with the best performance in the world is produced by Changchun Optoelectronics (it has not yet been fully localized); the laser rangefinder is currently unique to China.
"Commander Xu, is it true that only four tank divisions are enough for the armored corps?"
Tang Hua knew that Xu Guangda was sitting in an office in Beijing during this period, so he didn't come to the door, and he could explain the matter by calling.
The last time I saw Xu Guangda, the commander of the armored forces, was when I was preparing to steal T-54 tanks from the Soviet Union the year before last.Later, I got 300 T-54-2s, equipped with the fourth division of tanks, and fought in North Korea.
"After we got the T-54, we didn't want the T-34 anymore," Xu Guangda said. "As for the T-54, the Soviet Union said that its armored forces were in a hurry to refit, and the production capacity was insufficient, so they would not continue to sell it. Let's talk about T-54." The -[-] is quite expensive to buy directly. So we decided to wait until the tank factory in Changchun can build its own tanks."
从1950年7到1953年5月,不到三年的时间,志愿军/解-放-军的装甲兵从一无所有到拥有4个坦克师、17个独立的坦克/自行火炮团,编有T-54中型坦克300辆、T-34-85中型坦克1600辆、IS-2/3重型坦克100多辆,还有几百辆自行火炮/自行反坦克炮,三年的建设进度超过了日本当年25年的积累。
Tang Hua: "If all goes well, the Changchun Tank Factory can produce the first batch of T-1957s within the First Five-Year Plan, that is, before December 12. At that time, will the armored forces plan to expand several tank divisions, or will the tanks be replaced first?" Change the T-54 from the first division to the third tank division first?"
"First form the fifth tank division and the sixth tank division."
After the Korean Armistice Agreement was signed, our army would deploy three field infantry corps in the Northeast after the armistice, as suggested by the General Staff of the Soviet Union and considered by the General Staff of the People's Liberation Army, and try to achieve motorization; three tank divisions, three artillery divisions, one of which should be a rocket artillery division.
This large group of mobile corps is the backup group of North Korea. Although the United States is very injured in North Korea and the terms of the armistice agreement are also perfect, how to deal with the second Korean War is an issue that must be considered by the General Staff.
It's just that three tank divisions were left in the northeast, and the People's Liberation Army in Guanzhong had only one tank division.Although the Taiwan campaign is over, this streaking fan is too unrestrained, and more armored divisions are definitely needed.
"Commander Xu, before the Changchun Tank Factory went into production, we now have a modification plan for the T-54-2 tanks of the Fourth Tank Division. In the future, the new T-54s produced by the Changchun Factory will also be equipped according to this standard. The plan manual I'll ask the secretary to send it over here."
If the tanks in the middle and late period of World War II were equipped with the first-generation fire control system, the first-generation tanks of various countries after the war: T-54, M46, M47, and Centurion should be equipped with the second-generation fire control system.
By 1955, the general standard for second-generation fire control systems was optical rangefinders, mechanical ballistic computers, early-type active infrared night vision, and monostable (vertical stabilizer) or bistable.
But not all first-generation post-war tanks are fully equipped with these four accessories at this time.For example, there is no mechanical ballistic computer on the T-54. Only the M46/M47 can fit a set of mechanical ballistic computers relying on its huge body with a total height of 3 meters.
But now, Tang Hua feels that when the first batch of domestically produced T-1957s at the Changchun plant rolled off the assembly line in 54, the fire control system might have some elements of the third-generation fire control system.
For example, the optical rangefinder will definitely be channeled by the laser rangefinder.
The mechanical ballistic computer is not available on the T-54, so just skip it and go directly to the electronic computer.
Active Infrared Night Vision... 1957 may still be Active Infrared Night Vision, but should detect better than today's models.
The current T-54 only has a vertical stabilizer. The bi-stabilization first appeared on the T-1955B in 54. If it is operated properly, the first batch of domestic tanks may be bi-stabilized.
This is just right, the T-54 equipped with monostable can be equipped with a crude computer-aided fire control system. The first batch of domestic tanks and the Soviet T-54B and T-55 use bistable, and then they can be equipped with "quasi ·Third generation”fire control system.
……
In 1951, Tang Hua also equipped the T-34-85 with infrared night vision devices. This time, the computer-aided fire control system is going to ignore the T-34-85, and install a fire control computer for this big-headed World War II relic. Static vs. dynamic shooting cannons have limited mobile shooting capabilities-how will the technology tree of WOT come out after that.
The third tank division in Taiwan will not realize that both Tang Hua and Xu Guangda intend to treat these old tank divisions as little transparent.The commanders and fighters of the third tank division are happily wiping the barrel of the tank.
It is already May, and Taiwan is about to enter the rainy season, which means that it has gradually transitioned from the previous three-day rain to one rain every day.There is a lot of rain, high humidity, and high temperature. As long as the commanders and fighters of the third tank division do not wipe the tank for a day, rust can be seen on certain parts of the armor and track shoes.
The work of separating some personnel and equipment from the third tank division to form an independent tank regiment has also begun.Everyone in the division knew that the Third Tank Division would return to its original station when Taiwan was stabilized, but this independent tank regiment that was dismantled would be stationed in Taiwan in the future.The fighters of the Third Tank Division, especially those in the north, were very afraid of being assigned to an independent tank regiment.
But if you don’t want to go, you have to obey orders. Except for some commanders and fighters who voluntarily join the independent regiment, about one-third of the others are decided by lottery.
……
On May 5, Nansha waters.
An American-made tank landing ship, a 1500-ton transport ship, and 32 ships sent by the navy were in the vast sea, relying on sextants and surrounding islands and reefs to locate with difficulty, and searched around while sailing.
"There's land ahead! It's an island!"
The lookout of the 32nd ship stood on the mast for two hours, and finally found something.
