The design of the "Mammoth" is based on the current design of domestically produced main battle tanks.
It is also a cooperating research unit for the Type 90 main battle tank.
Dalian University of Technology was responsible for upgrading the power system, while Northwestern Polytechnical University was responsible for the research and development of the firepower system.
The laboratory staff all put down their work when they saw Principal Yan.
"As you all know, our competitor comes from Lanxiang Vocational School."
We absolutely must win this opening match. Do you have the confidence?
"have!!!!"
"Principal Yan, I observed that the enemy's laser cannons cannot penetrate the wedge-shaped armor at all; all exposed parts of our [Mammoth] are..."
It's all been fitted with armor; even if he stands still and shoots at it, he can't penetrate it!
"Well done. Don't forget how the 'Steel Teeth' lost. We must not let our guard down. This time, heaven is on our side."
Our first battle is against Lanxiang Vocational School; we have a chance to break into the top three in this year's robotics competition!
"Principal Yan, don't forget, we are partners with the Fifth Research Institute of the Army, which developed the Type 90 main battle tank."
Our power system uses the same all-steel track design, so there will absolutely be no problems with the power system!
As long as the opponent cannot use laser cutting at close range, long-range weapons pose no threat whatsoever!
"Then we'll increase the thickness of the wedge armor. Let's see what tricks a robot dog can pull!"
The lab director looked troubled.
"Principal Yan, the armor thickness cannot be increased any further; the power of our diesel engines is limited."
"If we continue to increase the armor thickness, the weight will be too great, and we won't be able to provide that much horsepower!"
Currently in the country, whether in the aviation field or the land forces,
Gas turbine technology has long been hampered by foreign countries, forcing the use of diesel engines instead.
With extremely limited power, it can only maintain balance by reducing armor protection.
President Yan was also helpless about this, especially since Northwestern Polytechnical University mainly focuses on the research and development of weapon systems.
In terms of gas turbine technology research, it is not as good as Dalian University of Technology, which was previously eliminated.
However, as long as they can withstand the long-range attacks of the Red Wing Vanguard, coupled with the newly designed coaxial machine guns,
Suppressing the enemy with firepower is absolutely no problem.
"By the way, how's the development of coaxial machine gun ammunition going?"
This is also the new coaxial machine gun that the Type 90 tank will be equipped with, with a rate of fire of 400 rounds per minute.
It's all about firepower coverage!
"Colleagues from the Weapons Research Institute are conducting their third firing test at the firing range."
"It should be enough time to go now!"
The lab director glanced at the Little Genius watch on his wrist. The scheduled shooting experiment was to begin at 2 PM.
"I'll test it myself!"
After instructing the laboratory staff, Principal Yan repeatedly watched videos of previous competitions held by Lanxiang Vocational School.
Develop tactics with team members,
He then drove to a remote mountain area outside Xi'an.
"Principal Yan, what brings you here?"
A man wearing large earplugs waved to the shooter to cease fire.
I took off my earplugs and shook hands warmly with Principal Yan.
"The elimination rounds are next month. Is the development progress of the coaxial machine gun on track?"
"No problem! When have I, Han, ever let you down! Right!"
Han Tao, Dean of the School of Artillery, Automatic Weapons and Ammunition Engineering, Northwestern Polytechnical University
It is also the flagship college of Northwestern Polytechnical University.
"Principal Yan, come this way, let me show you the all-new generation 7.62mm coaxial machine gun!"
Led by Han Tao, Principal Yan arrived at the shooting range.
A 7.62mm coaxial machine gun stands on the weapon stand.
"Rate of fire: 400 rounds per minute; Firing mode: fully automatic; Effective range: 800 meters; Magazine capacity: 200 rounds."
How about it, it comes equipped with a fully automated order placement system?
Han Tao described the machine gun in front of him as if it were his own child.
This was developed by Northwestern Polytechnical University over a year, and it will later be used as a dedicated coaxial machine gun for the Type 90 tank.
It replaced the light airborne machine guns previously purchased from the Soviet Union.
"Stop using all that technical jargon, I just want to know how powerful it is!"
Han Tao smiled and handed a large pair of noise-canceling earplugs to Principal Yan.
He gestured for Principal Yan to put it on, and gave the shooter a look.
Thump thump thump~~~~
The bullets poured out of the gun barrel like leaked rice.
The steel plate, 200 meters away, was riddled with bullet holes.
At this rate of fire, accuracy is no longer important.
One shot, and there wasn't a trace left.
"Great, Dean Han, this funding is being used wisely."
If the Mammoth can successfully enter the top three this time, Principal Yan can apply for a large sum of funding for weapons research.
"I watched the video of the match. With our 7.62mm bullets, when they hit the opponent's aircraft..."
In three seconds, I'll turn it into a hornet's nest!
........
Meanwhile, in the laboratory of Lanxiang Vocational School, Dean Qian and Dean Peng had completely repaired the "Red Wing Vanguard".
However, because of previous competitions, the Seven Sons of National Defense did not participate in the competition.
Therefore, we have no information on the robots from the Northwestern Polytechnical University team.
The information we can glean from last year's competition videos is that...
Once you reach the knockout stage, your opponents will use military weapons, albeit scaled-down and simplified versions.
There would be virtually no melee weapons; at worst, there would be machine guns.
