Reborn as a prince, achieve the pinnacle of power

Chapter 395 Firepower Test

"Not bad, very good!"

Lin Dingzhong rubbed his hands and looked at Master Chu with a flattering smile:

"Boss Chu, can this Ares tank be mass-produced and equipped to the army now? How many tanks can be produced per year? Why does it make sense for each group army to be equipped with 100 to 180 tanks first...

You don't know that in the past few years, with your help, the Air Force and the Navy have been eating a lot of oil, ...

Mr. Chu is from our army, you must help us..."

Looking at Lin Dingzhong's miserable expression, Young Master Chu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, raised his eyebrows, and said jokingly:

"Why, Lao Lin? It's just a speed test, and you've changed your mind. There are still a few items to test. Don't jump to conclusions. Maybe this big fool is a sitting duck!"

"Whatever you, Mr. Chu, produce must be a masterpiece."

Lin Dingzhong's old face instantly flashed with embarrassment, and he chuckled twice, with the flattering smile on his face widening a little bit, and continued to flatter Young Master Chu:

"Maybe I just got to the plateau and my brain wasn't working well, so I made a slip of the tongue... How dare I doubt your work?"

Lin Dingzhong had already made up his mind that the Army Commander's reputation was not important at all.

No matter what, even if I have to act like a spoiled brat today, I must get the benefits.

"Okay, let's talk about other things after all the tests are completed."

Young Master Chu stopped arguing with Lin Dingzhong. He glanced at his watch and ordered into the headset: "All units, pay attention. All units, pay attention. The second firepower test will begin in ten minutes."

"Fire test!"

In an instant, a hint of fanaticism flashed across Lin Dingzhong's face. He pushed open the car door, hung the high-power military binoculars in the car around his neck, and got out of the car.

The Great Xia Army's fear of insufficient firepower is well known to everyone.

Just thinking about the 1mm cannon of the Ares I tank, Lin Dingzhong's heart was full of anticipation.

Young Master Chu in the car saw Lin Dingzhong's anxious look, shook his head, pushed open the door and got out.

"Boss Chu, what is the goal of our firepower test this time?"

Lin Dingzhong held the high-powered telescope in both hands and slowly looked around 360 degrees, but he couldn't find a suitable target.

"Don't worry, he hasn't appeared yet."

Young Master Chu raised his binoculars and slowly looked up.

In the winter on the Qinghai Plateau, the sky is as blue as the sea, high and deep, as clear as if it had been washed with clean water.

The sun shines on the earth, bringing a touch of warmth, but the cold wind is still biting.

White clouds are dotted in between.

Looking up at the sky, it seems as if you can see through the clouds and reach the horizon.

"The target is in the sky?"

When Lin Dingzhong saw what Young Master Chu did, he also looked up at the sky. Apart from white clouds, there was not even a flying bird.

Just as his neck was starting to feel numb and he was about to lower his head to move around, he saw an airplane appear in the sky in the distance.

"coming!"

Young Master Chu reminded Lin Dingzhong, raised his eyebrows, and said proudly: "It's meaningless to hit targets on land. Even if they are moving targets, their speed is too slow. We can't detect the powerful ability of the Ares tank to find and destroy targets.

Moreover, for the Ares tank, its biggest threat is not on land, but in the sky.

So our experiment is to hit a target moving very fast in the air."

Lin Dingzhong pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement with Master Chu’s statement: “Yes, the Ares tank is the king on land, and no one can match it.

But as modern warfare evolves, the sky is the biggest threat to it.”

“So, I deliberately converted a J-7 trainer aircraft into an unmanned aircraft.

Its maximum speed is Mach 2 and its flight altitude is meters, making it very suitable as an aerial mobile target.

Lin Dingzhong's breath suddenly held. Based on his understanding of Young Master Chu, he estimated that he would maximize the functions of the target drone.

Lin Dingzhong couldn't help but admire that Young Master Chu really knew how to have fun.

This is using a cannon shell as a missile.

It's exciting to think about.

"All units, attention. All units, attention. The test of fire will begin in three minutes.

Prepare to raise the drone to the maximum altitude and speed in two minutes...

Zhang Hao, wait for my order before opening the 3D radar map, and quickly lock onto the target aircraft and shoot it down."

Young Master Chu let out a sigh of relief and immediately issued a series of orders.

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Two resounding and powerful replies soon came back from the headphones.

Lin Dingzhong's palms were sweating slightly as he held the telescope, his eyes fixed on the unmanned target aircraft in the sky.

Soon, he saw the unmanned target aircraft begin to accelerate and rise.

The exhaust gas from its tail was like a long fire dragon, cutting through the sky, leaving a dazzling trail, which was particularly conspicuous in the blue sky.

As the altitude increased, the air became thinner and the temperature dropped sharply, but the target aircraft still maintained a high-speed flight, and the exhaust gas pulled out white smoke in the cold wind.

At this moment, Lin Dingzhong's eyes were wide open as he watched the target plane looming in the sky.

"Report, the unmanned target aircraft has reached an altitude of meters and a speed of Mach 2."

A report from the drone operating console soon came into Young Master Chu’s earphones.

"Ares 1 tank, I order the 3D map to be opened immediately, the friend-or-foe identification system to be activated quickly, the aerial target to be locked, and it to be destroyed."

"Ares 1 understands!"

Inside the cockpit.

Zhang Hao quickly stretched out his right hand and pressed a button on the operating display screen.

"Beep! 3D radar system detector activated!"

In an instant, the image on the display screen changed immediately, and Zhang Hao in the cockpit saw the image gradually change from blurry to clear.

I saw the unmanned target aircraft shuttling flexibly in the air, like a silver lightning, cutting through the sky and leaving behind graceful arcs.

"An enemy plane is spotted, at an altitude of meters and a speed of Mach 1.95. Should we destroy it?"

A flame of excitement flashed in Zhang Hao's eyes. He slowly stretched out his slightly trembling right hand and tapped the word "Yes" on the display screen with his index finger.
