Chapter 251: The first experience of a tank that subverts your worldview

Liu Sen looked at the men.

Qin Hu was very strong and looked very powerful.

Dong Hao was not much different.

It seemed that driving a tank and firing a cannon were both physically demanding jobs, otherwise the two men would not have such physiques.

At the same time, the three men introduced their responsibilities in the tank.

There were a total of 3 people in a squad in their tank unit.

Dong Hao was the driver, responsible for driving the tank.

Qin Hu was the gunner, responsible for operating the cannon to destroy the enemy.

Squad leader Xiao Zhe was the vehicle commander, responsible for overall observation. According to the superior's orders and actual conditions, he ordered the driver to arrange the driving route and determine the target priority. In an emergency, he could surpass the gunner and directly shoot and destroy the target.

Liu Sen saw that the men were still a little nervous and unnatural when talking to him.

So he said, "Don't be nervous, just follow your normal daily training, and don't pay too much attention to me. I am mainly engaged in research, and I have a different division of labor from you."

Then Liu Sen asked about some daily things to eliminate their nervousness.

"I heard that it's very hot inside the tank, and the air doesn't circulate."

"Sir, this happened a long time ago. I drove that kind of tank. It was really hot. It was like being in a can of stuffy food. It was very crowded and there was a strange smell."

Qin Hu on the side immediately said with a smile.

"Now our tanks are all Type 99 tanks. Although the internal space is still very small and crowded. But it's much better. At least it won't be too stuffy because there is air conditioning."

After listening to this, Liu Sen immediately said, "I really don't understand!"

"We are enjoying the benefits brought by technological progress. In fact, this air conditioning and refrigeration system is not prepared for the members in the car. It is to cool the advanced equipment and ensure their normal operation. We enjoy the air conditioning as a byproduct."

Dong Hao on the side nodded and affirmed.

"Well, no matter what, it's a big improvement to no longer be stuffy."

"Let's go. It's not clear enough to just talk about it. Let's go into the tank and feel it."

Through the conversation just now, the few people were finally no longer nervous and had a normal communication.

Liu Sen followed the three people and soon came to their tank.

Liu Sen quickly entered the tank under the guidance of several people.

As soon as Liu Sen entered the tank, he saw that the interior of the tank was full of various instruments and equipment.

The interior was really different from what he imagined, and all kinds of things were exposed outside.

Various processors, various connecting wires, various eyepieces.

It was really as ugly as it could be.

But the whole world was the same, and they were all very rough.

This is the difference between military and civilian use.

"Alas, this tank looks big on the outside, but it is really small inside. Four people can barely fit in, and more people probably can't." Liu Sen directly expressed his feelings.

"Well, this tank is designed for three people, so there are three people in a team."

"Then let me feel it in each position!"

"Okay!"

Then Liu Sen began to move in the tank. First, he experienced the position of the commander, which was not bad.

The field of vision was wide, and there was an independent commander's observation mirror with a built-in thermal imager.

Then he looked at the machine gun and found that it was a 12.7 machine gun.

These things are all world-leading, and many countries do not have such instruments.

Then I guessed the gunner's position and felt it, the sight, etc.

Finally, it was the driver's position.

After feeling it, Liu Sen could clearly feel that it was a completely different concept from the design of Feixuan Automobile by their company.

Feixuan Automobile is beautiful and cool. It must take into account performance and comfort at the same time.

Tanks put performance first. The external armor is designed for defense. All the internal equipment is for better combat. All equipment must have very high reliability and cannot easily fail.

After all, tanks must be very bumpy during off-road and raids. Once some instruments have problems, it will affect the combat effectiveness of the tank.

Therefore, all the lines are stupid and clumsy.

And the positions of several members are squeezed out, and even this has been improved a lot, and has begun to take care of the members of the tank.

In previous generations of tanks, the personnel sitting in them were very uncomfortable.

Everything in the tank and the design concept had a great impact on Liu Sen.

He kept thanking that he came to the army and got close to the tank.

Otherwise, according to his original idea, the designed tank is likely to be a castle in the air.

Or a decoration, it looks good and has complete functions, but it is not very practical, the failure rate will be very high, and it is very troublesome to repair.

After experiencing all the positions, Liu Sen squeezed in with Xiao Zhe again.

"Sir, let's take you for a run!"

"Yes!"

Liu Sen nodded.

So the tank started, and a huge roar spread inside the tank.

"Oh my god, is this sound so loud!"

Liu Sen suddenly felt like his ears were going deaf, and the roar kept attacking his eardrums.

"Squad leader Xiao, is this sound always this loud?"

After Liu Sen finished speaking, he saw that Xiao Zhe did not react at all, and Xiao Zhe was still operating the instrument.

He knew it was probably because the sound was too loud, and Xiao Zhe was wearing headphones, so he couldn't hear it.

So he reached out and patted Xiao Zhe's shoulder, and said loudly again: "Squad Leader Xiao, the sound is so loud, is it always like this?"

This time Xiao Zhe heard Liu Sen's voice and responded: "It's always loud, but we are wearing headphones, so it's a little better."

He took off the headphones and handed them to Liu Sen.

"Sir, try it!"

After taking the headphones and putting them on, the huge roar suddenly became much smaller, but it was still very noisy.

Liu Sen took off the headphones and returned them to Xiao Zhe.

He couldn't imagine what it would feel like to stay in such a small environment for a whole day.

Thinking of the old tanks, it was stuffy and hot, and with the unpleasant smell, it was simply hell.

Thinking of these, Liu Sen thought that this time he must solve this problem.

Such a loud sound is mainly the sound of the engine. If it is replaced with an electric motor, the sound will be much smaller.

It will even become very quiet.

According to Xiao Zhe's instructions, driver Dong Hao turned the car around and drove towards the test site.

The speed was getting faster and faster, and soon reached 60 kilometers per hour.

Liu Sen felt okay at first, but soon felt something was wrong.
