The five-point agreement has been put before General Ian Wright, after reporting to Defense Secretary Casper Weinberg. After receiving an affirmative reply from the other party, everyone knew that the military had to put forward requirements for the specific performance of military vehicles.
General Ian Wright said seriously: "There are only five companies that meet the Ministry of Defense's military vehicle bidding. Next, I will put forward the Ministry of Defense's requirements for the performance and price of military vehicles. If any company feels that it can't do it, it can withdraw from the bidding. ,"
"The Department of Defense divides vehicles into five categories based on their usage requirements."
"The first category is an ordinary personnel transport vehicle, which can take at least one standard five-person combat team and a full set of equipment. The climbing degree is 60 degrees; the roll degree: 40 degrees; the passing angle: 25 degrees; the approach angle: 48 degrees; departure angle: 48 degrees; Angle: 38 degrees' Wading depth: 762mm/30inches; Body length: 5000mm/16.17feet; Body width: 2184mm/7.17feet; Body height: 1930mm/6.33feet; Wheelbase: 3302mm/10.83feet; Headroom: 508mm/ 20inches; Vehicle Weight: 3,493kg/7,700lbs*; Engine: 6.2V8; Gasoline Power: 430hp at5900RPM1, the aviation aluminum alloy body is heat-treated and can withstand the direct attack of 12.7mm bullets.”
"The maximum speed on the road is not less than 120 kilometers per hour, and the maximum speed in the field is not less than 60 kilometers per hour; the tires can run for more than 100 kilometers at a speed of more than 40 kilometers per hour, and the maximum cruising range with full fuel is at least 350 kilometers."
"Of course, this is only the minimum requirement, and the service life should be more than 12 years. We will make the final evaluation based on the data provided by major manufacturers, on-site inspection, and price."
Hearing this, General Motors CEO Mike Donald is very happy. This is the data based on the Hummer vehicle. It can be said that every new Hummer vehicle meets the requirements.
The Ministry of Defense is really powerful, and it seems that the public relations expenses are really not in vain.
According to this data, GM does not need to continue research and development at all. It can be mass-produced directly, which can be said to have taken the lead.
Seeing that no one said anything, Ian Wright continued: "The second type of military vehicle is the combat communication command vehicle."
"The communication command vehicle must first have the communication support function. The basic function of the communication command vehicle is to ensure the smooth progress of the communication work. It must do a good job of sending and receiving information, and transmit the battlefield information to the command center through voice, pictures, video, etc. , and also accept the information sent by the command center to help better respond to the battlefield command work."
"The communication function is the most important function of the communication command vehicle. On the one hand, it must accurately record the situation on the spot, and on the other hand, it must ensure the accuracy and safety of the information, and ensure that the information sent and received is not damaged or interfered. Communication command Vehicles have very advanced equipment, radio systems, satellite communication systems, etc. are all necessary tools to ensure smooth communication, and only advanced equipment can ensure the realization of communication functions.”
"At the same time, another major function of the communication command vehicle is command. There are independent conference rooms, command rooms and other areas on the vehicle to provide guarantees for giving full play to the command role of the vehicle."
"In addition, as a professional vehicle, the communication command vehicle must have the basic transportation function of the vehicle. On this basis, it must have good stability and adaptability, be able to cope with complex battlefield environments, and be able to adapt to different road conditions. .The safety of the vehicle should also be guaranteed, and it should have a good performance in terms of shock absorption, earthquake resistance and stability, so as to provide a stable working platform for the communication command.”
"The specific parameters will be issued in the form of documents, and the Ministry of National Defense has strict requirements for the future general command vehicle."
It is simply tailor-made for Ford, and Ford itself has the best chassis platform. With only a little improvement, it could meet the requirements of military use; this made Henry Ford II ecstatic.
Although the communication command vehicle is not a big purchase, the profit is very considerable. As long as you can get the order, you can definitely make a lot of money; and you can also accumulate experience in this area. In modern society, the war situation has changed a lot. Military command vehicles are absolutely indispensable; not only the United States, but also other countries need it, which has broad market prospects.
Ian Wright went on to say: "The third category is the tactical assault vehicle, which is mainly issued to special forces."
"The tactical assault vehicle must be able to carry 2-4 soldiers and at least 1 general-purpose machine gun. Special suspension for high-speed off-road driving. Low profile to reduce target characteristics and improve vehicle survivability."
"The specific performance and requirements of the tactical assault vehicle will also be issued to you in the form of documents."
Chrysler has an absolute advantage in this regard, after all, the tactical assault vehicle evolved from the dune vehicle situation. Chrysler has yet to fear anyone in the dune buggy world.
Ian Wright continued: "The fourth category is military trucks. Heavy trucks must be able to carry more than 16 tons of cargo, have independent suspension, install a central tire inflation and deflation system and use permanently lubricated components. Use independent suspension The travel design standard of the spring on the vehicle is doubled, the occupants and cargo are more stable, the traction and ground clearance are also increased, and the wading depth is increased from 1.2 meters to 1.5 meters. The central tire is inflated and deflated. The system allows the driver to tune the vehicle's performance to the best possible level in any condition."
"The specific requirements will be issued in the form of documents, and you can refer to them in detail."
Hearing the performance requirements, Mark's CEO almost jumped up with joy; isn't this the latest military truck developed by Mark's! It seems that the Ministry of Defense is still targeting its own people, which is equivalent to sending orders directly to them.
After getting the order, it can be produced the next day. After all, the upgrade of the production line has been completed before, so there is no need to waste a little time.
Ian Wright ignored everyone's gaze and continued: "The fifth category is the missile launcher."
Hearing everyone here leaked incredible expressions, after all, that thing is a strategic vehicle. It will actually be taken out for public bidding. What is the situation?
Missile launch vehicle refers to a special vehicle with the function of launching missiles. According to the type of loaded missiles, it can be divided into ground-to-ground, ground-to-air, shore-to-ship, and flight missile launch vehicles. Its main function is to carry the missile into the specified launch point, complete the deployment from the driving state to the launch state, conduct pre-launch inspection and information setting of the missile, and implement the missile launch time according to the instructions. The missile launch vehicle generally consists of chassis car, launch control cabin, hydraulic system, economic launch frame, launch box (rice launch), missile launch and control equipment, launch vehicle measurement and control equipment, power supply and distribution equipment, communication equipment, positioning and orientation equipment, etc. composition.
The main indicators to measure the performance of missile launch vehicles include mobility, dynamic performance, launch performance, environmental adaptability, concealment, reliability, maintainability, safety, human-machine system engineering, etc.
Bao Zixuan also felt incredible. After all, in history, American missile launch vehicles were produced by specific companies and have never been tendered. To know that he is also here, what does the US military mean, how can the great weapon of the country be easily known to outsiders.
In fact, it is not only the US military, but other countries as well. Missile launch vehicles are definitely the country's top secret, and can only be handed over to the most core companies for production; that's in line with common sense. There must be something unknown here, and the U.S. military would never have made such a low-level mistake.
Ian Wright: "There are other auxiliary vehicles, but the Department of Defense still distributes them to major companies in the form of documents."
"Military industry experts will discuss the specific details with you later, as well as what precautions should be taken."
"The Ministry of Defense hopes to see a prototype within a month It can be said that the time is tight and the task is heavy. I hope everyone can understand; after all, the Soviets will not give us too much time."
Hearing this, the richest man Bao finally understood what was going on. It turned out that he was the one who accompanied the bid. What can I do in a month, if there is no ready-made prototype. It may be difficult to complete the design drawings, it seems to be premeditated.
The Ministry of National Defense has already made a corresponding plan, and they have come to join in the fun; isn't this stupid! However, it has the memory of the past life and the strong processing ability of the Black Cloud Group. It is destined to disappoint the US military, and it will definitely surprise everyone.
Even if you have strength, you can only take a look at the communication command vehicle and the missile launch vehicle. Even if the performance of the vehicle designed by Heiyun is excellent, it is impossible for the U.S. military to purchase from Heiyun Automobile. It has nothing to do with technical performance, but is more worried about the risk of leakage.
Several other companies have no complaints about the one-month time limit. They'll even be grateful to the Defense Department, which is a deliberate attempt to exclude the Black Cloud car. The four car companies have been preparing for several years. It is estimated that only Bao Zixuan's Heiyun Automobile is a black eye!
