In fact, during the subsequent inquiries, these generals had already begun to inquire about the price of 207 from the side. These generals were very clear that the strength shown by 207 had already made them determine whether they were required to be equipped. The scale of equipment they set depends on the price, and the level of the price determines the scale of the layout.

The 107 artillery has been included in the conventional weapons list and its price is not high. At least in terms of power and price ratio, it is considered a relatively cheap product. They also think that the price of 207 will not be much expensive, but in terms of current power, they have no idea. If calculated according to normal, the price of 2 times of power rocket shells is a normal range, but it is not impossible to increase by six times of eight times. After all, in the same weapon system, the prices of different powers are completely different.

Under such circumstances, even if they are commanders of military regions with huge resources, they cannot tilt a large amount of funds on a unique weapon. A military region needs to be equipped with many weapons. Even military commanders like them must weigh or even choose how to use certain weapons to ensure the uniqueness and combat effectiveness of the military region. The seemingly huge military regions funds are actually spread in many aspects, but in fact there is not much in each aspect.

When a person mentioned this, almost everyone's attention was focused on the person in charge, which put a lot of pressure on the person in charge. This exercise, compared with the last exercise, the biggest difference is that the personnel participating in the exercise were quite high, either the generals of the third headquarters or the commanders of major military regions. Each person has a high position and power. Some of them also control the huge purchasing rights, especially Yang Yuanzhao and Feng Yuxiang, which made him not want to hide it and cannot hide it from it.

Anyway, this time, we have to show the power of 207, without using the price to attract it. The same is true for saying it here. We almost show off the price of rockets. The price of 207 rockets is 12% lower than the price of rockets in the last exercise.

Several commanders of the military region had not participated in the last exercise. They did not know the price mentioned in the last exercise. Feng Yuxiang couldn't remember it clearly. He turned around and asked the secretary behind him. The secretary took out a small book and then quoted the price for the last exercise.

The last price made the 207 very competitive. At that time, it was equivalent to a 270 gun. Compared with the power and range of the rocket launcher, it was barely acceptable. There was no problem with the price alone, and it even had some advantages.

It is already quite cheap, and it is 12% cheaper on the original basis. What does this mean? It is almost just the price of a 0mm high-explosive bomb. Everyone was moved by such a price, and some people even didn't believe it. They couldn't understand why the combat location of the rocket launcher had significantly increased, but the price had dropped significantly.

107 is the hottest thing recently. Rockets. Because of their high technical content, the power of rocket launchers is on rockets. They are generally higher than shells of the same caliber. 107 is about twice as expensive as 108mm howitzers. Although 207 is larger and larger caliber shells will also increase, it is only equivalent to the price of 0mm shells, which is extremely competitive. Even if the price was put very low before, I didn't expect the price to be so low.

Some people were thinking about it and were considering what caused this impact. Yang Yuanzhao understood it a little. It must be the effect of aluminum thermal agent. The combat area was 55 kilograms before, but now it is 44 kilograms. For high-explosion bombs, it represents reducing the amount of explosives. This itself is to reduce costs. The materials used for aluminum thermal agents are not expensive. Aluminum and iron tetroxide are both cheap things. At least, it is much cheaper than high-explosion bombs. Under such a premise, the price is definitely lower.

This is the benefit of technological improvement. The person in charge did not say much about this. He just revealed that the new technology was used. Therefore, the changes brought about by such changes will be increased within one month at the latest, and the price will be reduced accordingly.

At this point, the generals have confirmed that the rocket launcher had made a breakthrough in charging, replacing the original gunpowder with a cheap and powerful gunpowder, otherwise the price would not have been reduced so much. The price of 0 artillery high-explosion bombs is close to that of the 305 artillery high-explosion bombs. With this point alone, the rocket launcher is enough to get orders. They began to rush to place orders, for fear that it would be too late.

The production of any product has its own rules. Just like 107, it has entered the list of conventional weapons. The Rocket Research Institute has spent a lot of energy to establish and produce production lines in at least 120 arms projects. However, the output is still in short supply. Even if the daily output reaches 4,000 sets, it will take at least 2 months to fully meet the demand of 180,000 to 240,000. This has not been said that the consumption of so many troops across the country.

For artillery, it may not be broken in two or three years, or even three or five years, but shells are consumables. The cost and production difficulty of rocket launchers are mainly on rockets. Compared with 107, production difficulty is definitely greater. If you don’t place an order earlier, will you wait until you continue to wait?

Some smart people have surrounded the person in charge, and the rest have woken up like a dream and are surrounded by more than a dozen generals. This is the first time the person in charge enjoys such a sense of happiness. Fortunately, he still maintains a little bit of clarity and has not directly agreed to any order. This weapon still depends on the unified distribution of the Central Military Commission.

To be honest, even Feng Yuxiang was a little hesitant about the performance of the rocket launcher. Whether to put the 207 in the list of conventional weapons? Not to mention anything else, the cheap price and the power it showed were enough to make the rocket launcher favored. Even if it had one or another, its price was enough to make most of the troops tempted. Even if it was a disposable consumable, it was enough to give them corresponding advantages in the early stages of the war and in a specific state.

In addition to the cost of rocket engines and fuel explosives, the cost of the rocket is very small, which is also the key to rocket launchers. Later generations were very prosperous because of their power and cost. Rocket launchers can be called the AK47 in cannons. They have good results and are cheap. They are not even too difficult to be technically difficult, and they are relatively simple.

However, after repeated considerations, Feng Yuxiang still did not put the rocket launcher into the list of conventional weapons. He would only equip a regiment or a brigade of rocket launchers in a group army unit for application in specific environments and artillery fire attacks. The real concentrated large-scale application is still in the unit of the Military Commission. The Military Commission is preparing to establish three rocket launchers, with rocket launchers as the main weapon, assisting part of the armored vehicles and heavy tanks to form a rapid response force. After a little simulation, due to the saturated attack level of rocket launchers, the attack power displayed by this army in an instant is the best in the entire Chinese Army.

When Yang Yuanzhao heard Feng Yuxiang's plan, he was stunned. Isn't this the predecessor of the second artillery in later generations? Rocket launchers are just the beginning. In the future, wireless-guided missiles are the real killer, and they will even be applied to all aspects of the army, navy and air force. This rocket launcher will gradually try and easily transfer to the strategic artillery unit in the future.

Yang Yuanzhao was quite satisfied with the rocket launcher team. He asked them to increase research on the basis of rocket launcher and proposed a different thing: guidance and rocket launcher's power is very powerful. This power is covering. Even if the rocket launcher is cheap and hit rate is a flaw, it will cause stage waste.

Perhaps now, large groups and large-scale operations, rocket launchers still have a place, but in the future, large-scale conflicts are no longer the mainstream of the world. When special forces, precision strikes and asymmetric strikes become mainstream, what China needs in the future is high-precision things. China has outstanding development in the radio field and rockets, and has all the conditions for developing missiles. As long as the window paper is pointed out, it will be fine.

With the help of radio signals, commanding the rocket to adjust and finally hit the target, it seems difficult, but it does not seem difficult to calculate it through computers. The key is that smart chips and radio technologies must achieve the role of guidance and command. In the middle, personnel in this field need to join and point them in the direction.

Of course, this is actually a series of long-range missiles, but Yang Yuanzhao separates long-range missiles from medium and short-range missiles. In the future, the Rocket Launch Institute will study more precise guided weapons within 300 kilometers, even the Air Force's short-range combat missiles. Long-range missiles with a range of more than 300 kilometers will be merged with the Launch Rocket Research Institute. They will jointly study strategically significant ballistic, long-range, and even intercontinental missiles. However, there is no urgency to research at present, and it will even be very difficult to produce. They are only forward-looking research and more technical accumulation.

Yang Yuanzhao is very clear that nuclear weapons and launch vehicles are two huge projects. During the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union fought against each other and invested huge funds to achieve the results. In this era, even if China started, it had a long way to go.

Fortunately, there is still time. When China is more beneficial than other countries in the world, it is because China has a clear judgment on future generations. How to go in the future? What will it do in the main areas. As long as we follow these and gradually accumulate, even if we take a little detour, we will not waste too long. At least when others are still focusing on battleships and basic equipment, China has already focused on strategic weapons. (To be continued.)
