At the Zhuri and military parade on July 30, 2017, there was a protective assault vehicle. It can be said that it has made a lot of light. It not only accounts for more than 1/3 of the total number of vehicles and equipment on site, but is also the "leader" of all teams. Yes, what we are going to talk about today is the number one main force in the PLA's light vehicle equipment - the protective Dongfeng Mengshi assault vehicle .
In the 1980s, the US military learned lessons from the experience of Vietnam War and created a standard light military vehicle to replace various Jeep and pickup trucks. The name of this military vehicle is "HMMWV" , meaning a high-mobility multi-purpose wheeled vehicle, also known as "hummer" . Hummer has a strong appearance and excellent mobility. It caused a huge sensation as soon as it was launched. Many countries are rushing to introduce it, and China is no exception.
Of course, my country not only introduced Hummer, but also used its technology to create my country's first world-class off-road vehicle .
Since the introduction of Hummer into China in 2002, Chinese automobile companies have begun to conduct reverse surveying and mapping of it. It took four years to develop it successfully. It started to be equipped in small batches in 2007. After some improvements were made based on the feedback from the troops, it was finally named "Wangshi". As my country's first internationally advanced light universal off-road vehicle, the Warriors can be said to be a "separation" of the Hummer to a certain extent, and from another perspective, it has achieved "transcendence". Why is
called "liness"? Due to the limitation of domestic vehicle manufacturing technology at that time, there were many key components that our country could not produce, so it could only be imported from abroad. This focus was reflected in power, transmission, transferor, and other systems; as for "transcendence", it was mainly because my country set a series of goals before developing the Warriors, and finally achieved surpassing in multiple projects such as load-bearing capacity, body durability, and handling stability.
In terms of the vehicle shape, the Mengshi off-road vehicle looks quite wide and thick overall, with a height-thickness ratio of 0.91 and a very low center of gravity. It is also because of this that the Mengs off-road vehicle has a great advantage when turning, and its horizontal G value can withstand up to 0.4G, which even meets the vehicle needs of professional racers at this point.
However, although the Warrior has made innovations on the basis of Hummers, it still has some very fatal shortcomings. In response to these shortcomings, my country has carried out research and development work on the "second-generation Warriors". The People's Liberation Army has only five requirements for the second-generation Warriors: can set up heavy weapons , weigh less than 5 tons , strong maneuverability , strong armor performance , and also has a certain carrying capacity .
In 2008, Dongfeng Company, which undertakes the project, officially started the R&D work of the second generation of warriors. Since Dongfeng Company had already had some experience in off-road vehicle research and development at that time, and my country's automobile technology at that time also improved significantly, in just two years, Dongfeng Company achieved a technological breakthrough and installed the newly developed Warrior Type 2 small-scale small-scale in the army. It is worth mentioning that the core components of the second-generation warriors of have basically been domestically produced and independent. There is no even much shadow of Hummer from the second-generation warriors of our country.
More importantly, the second-generation Warrior comprehensively strengthens its body performance.
From the perspective of maneuverability, the maximum speed of the second-generation Warriors in can reach about 150 kilometers per hour. When fully loaded, the maximum speed is no less than 130 kilometers per hour. , plus it can basically be transported by Y-8 transport aircraft, and its maneuverability has been significantly improved.
In terms of strike capabilities, , second-generation warriors can be equipped with Type 89, 12.7mm high-fire gun, Type 04 35mm grenade launcher, Type 88 5.8mm universal machine gun and other weapons.
From the perspective of information capabilities, , the second-generation warriors of have information exchange capabilities such as navigation and positioning, interconnection and message sending, which fully meets the needs of modern information transmission.
Of course, these are not the strongest things of the second-generation warriors. As a protective off-road vehicle, the is about 100 meters away. The windshield and the side of the body of the second-generation Warrior can withstand the 7.62mm rifle fire, and the body armor can withstand the 7.62mm armor-piercing bomb attacks. Moreover, V-shaped armor is also installed at the bottom, even if it is a landmine, there is no way to destroy it.
In theory, the second generation of Warriors is already strong enough, and their performance is far away from the American Hummers. However, we also clearly mentioned earlier that my country's Warrior series is the pioneer of domestic third-generation off-road vehicles - yes, my country has developed the third generation of Warriors, which can actually go to the next level.
According to relevant data, my country's third generation warriors refer to "CSK182 6-man protective assault vehicle ", with length, width and height of 5.165 meters, 2.36 meters, and respectively. 2.15 meters, its load capacity and traction capacity are two tons each, and its wheelbase is as long as 3.4 meters, which is shocking.
As mentioned earlier, our country's Warrior series is a Hummer that was born from the United States and finally achieved transcendence. So where is its transcendence reflected?
First of all, let’s analyze this situation from the perspective of parameter indicators.
From the perspective of load-bearing capacity, the mass utilization coefficient of my country's Warrior series is about 10% higher than that of Hummer; From the perspective of safety, the Warrior has enhanced its braking force, and its parking brake slope has increased from 17% to 40%; From the perspective of production attributes, the Warrior's range is 220~500 kilometers higher than that of Hummer; From the perspective of ergonomic engineering, the Warrior's body sealing comfort and sound insulation and noise reduction are far superior to Hummer...
In fact, my country's technological surpassing is far more than this. , like the cooling fan driving device developed by my country, is not available to Hummer, and this device alone can make Warrior's temperature 17 degrees higher than that of Hummer when running at high power. Similar innovations in are still reflected in clutch, reducer, etc. From this, it can be seen that my country has indeed made great progress in the research and development of military vehicle technology.
Innovation and transcendence are not only reflected in technology, but also in concepts, means, talent training, etc.
is different from the United States. When developing "Warriors", my country adheres to the concept of "comprehensive, scientific and forward-looking transcendence", which is a high-starting independent innovation model; in terms of means, my country has established a series of innovative development methods represented by the VES quality evaluation system , which is commendable. The most important point is that in the process of inventing and applying these new technologies, our country has also cultivated a large number of talents who can climb to the top of technology.
We firmly believe that the third generation of Warriors is just the beginning, and our country will still shine in this field in the future.
