Chapter 266 Polytechnic Special Vehicle Factory, a booster for the country's heavy equipment
After the first day of the Lunar New Year, Jiang Hui returned to the factory to work.

There is no way. BMW motorcycles are in short supply right now, and the people below are all working hard. It is not suitable for him, as the factory director, to stay at home.

However, for Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Plant, the most important task this year is to expand production capacity, increase the output of three motorcycles, and at the same time improve the various styles of BMW X in a targeted manner.

The future of three-wheeled vehicles cannot be ignored, and different people need different three-wheeled vehicles.

If you buy it to transport passengers, you will definitely need a carriage.

However, different transportation needs have different requirements for carriages.

For those who buy it to transport goods, the height of the guardrail will be required according to the needs.

Although some things can be achieved by purchasing and modifying them yourself, it would definitely be more satisfying if Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory could provide them directly.

At this stage, other factories often lack customer service awareness when designing products and do not fully consider the needs of consumers.

Jiang Hui would definitely not make such a low-level mistake.

In addition, the key task this year is to develop several engines.

As long as there is a corresponding engine, launching a new model of motorcycle is not a big problem.

Jiang Hui has even prepared the exterior design drawings of several major products and is just waiting for the development of core components such as engines.

At the Chaoyang Motorcycle Manufacturing Plant, Jiang Hui did not have many things to worry about, but the missile launcher vehicle that he planned with his father-in-law on New Year's Eve was a project that required a lot of time and energy.

As a booster of the country's important equipment, it has an extraordinary impact on China, on my father-in-law personally, and on Capital University of Technology.

Jiang Hui must be very concerned about this kind of thing.

Of course, Zhu Jiansheng is nominally the head of the project, and he is also responsible for all coordination matters.

However, Jiang Hui also plans to participate in it personally and vigorously promote the development of this major project.

"Old Zhu, do you have the confidence to complete this project within five years?"

Without waiting for the start of school, Zhu Jiansheng prepared the project materials for the intercontinental missile launcher and personally went to report to Lin Guanyong, who had been promoted to principal.

Compared with other projects, the development of intercontinental missile launchers definitely requires a lot of manpower and material resources.

Not to mention other things, just the trial production of a prototype car requires a huge amount of funds.

To complete this project as a whole, it will cost, not to mention hundreds of millions, but certainly tens of millions.

Even for Capital University of Technology, such a large project is not available every year.

"I can't say I can definitely do it, but I already have a general idea and I'm 70% to 80% sure I can succeed."

When Jiang Hui was communicating with Zhu Jiansheng, he believed that the intercontinental missile launcher could be developed in three years.

To be on the safe side, when Zhu Jiansheng was making the project report, he told the school that it could be completed within five years.

In this way, he has left some leeway for himself so that he will not be stuck in the end in the future.

After all, if tens of millions of project funds are spent but there are no significant results, then Zhu Jiansheng's future will basically be ruined.

This kind of thing is definitely not what Zhu Jiansheng wants to see.

"A 70% to 80% chance of success is already very high!"

"As for intercontinental missile launchers, China is still relatively backward. Both FAW and Second FAW have not achieved any outstanding results in this regard."

"Even the launch vehicles used for medium-range missiles have a technological level that lags behind that of the international level."

"But your intercontinental missile launcher is designed to be 12-axle instead of a simple trailer. The design will be very difficult."

Lin Guanyong is an academic president. He was also the vice-dean in charge of the Department of Vehicle Engineering at that time. He has a relatively good understanding of the relevant situation in the automotive industry.

In his opinion, even if a relatively simple trailer is used to maneuver an intercontinental missile, the difficulty is actually very high.

After all, the weight of an intercontinental missile is easily dozens of tons or even hundreds of tons.

The Sarmat missile of the Polar Bear became very famous in later generations. Its biggest feature was its weight. It was extremely heavy. It was the heaviest active missile in the world at that time, weighing 210 tons.

The huge weight gives the Sarmat missile a very significant advantage, which is its long range.

Because larger missiles can hold more fuel, they can naturally travel farther.

The Sarmat missile can be fully filled with 178 tons of fuel, and 178 tons of fuel also makes this missile the longest-range missile in human history, with a range of 1.8 kilometers.

The advantage of long range is that no matter where the missile is deployed, it can hit anywhere in the world.

This strategic deterrence is very important.

Otherwise, only others can attack your homeland, but you cannot attack others, and the deterrent effect will be far less.

"The maneuverability of trailers is too low, especially in places where the road conditions are not very good, and trailers are basically unusable."

"Our intercontinental missiles are usually used with nuclear warheads for strategic deterrence."

"It is very important for it to maintain sufficient mobility and secrecy." "So I think the trailer form is completely unable to meet the needs of relevant departments."

Zhu Jiansheng gave his reply very affirmatively.

Lin Guanyong naturally would not refute this.

After all, what Zhu Jiansheng said made a lot of sense.

“The impact of this project is so huge that it will last for several years.”

“And once it is launched, we will definitely need to mobilize all the scientific research forces of the School of Mechanical and Vehicle Engineering to participate, which will affect the development of our other projects.”

"The most important thing is that if we take up such a large amount of development funds, the support from the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building alone may not be enough."

"I think it's necessary to communicate with the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building and ask them to support part of the funding."

"In this way, the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building will support part of the funding, the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building will support part of the funding, and our school will raise part of the funding on its own, so that we can fully ensure that the development funds are sufficient for use."

Either don't do it, or if you do it, you must produce results.

Lin Guanyong is well aware of the impact of such a large project.

Although this is a missile launcher vehicle, its significance is certainly far less than that of the missile itself.

However, this project can definitely be regarded as one of the top levels in China, and its significance to the country is enormous.

The more this kind of project it is, the more important it is to do it well and not let it fall apart.

"I thought so too. It happened that during the development, we were able to fully communicate and exchange ideas with the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building to understand their needs so that we could carry out targeted design."

"To prevent the missile launcher designed by then from being unable to fully meet the usage requirements."

Zhu Jiansheng could naturally realize the benefits of the plan proposed by Lin Guanyong.

"I see you mentioned Xiao Jiang. Will he be deeply involved in the various designs of our project?"

Lin Guanyong is very clear about Jiang Hui's level.

The Hummer military vehicle was able to be produced in such a short time, and Jiang Hui’s contribution is definitely not to be ignored.

Jiang Hui helped resolve many key component design and production bottlenecks.

If Jiang Hui wasn't there, the schedule would be greatly affected if the bottleneck of a core component could not be resolved.

"To be honest, he was the first one to propose this project to me. Even the concept drawings of the ICBM launcher were provided by him. My main job is to implement these ideas."

"He will be fully involved in this process."

"We will also report to the ministry at that time and ask my deputy for this project to assist me in advancing it."

Such a large project must be approved by the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building before it can be carried out.

Not only the Fifth and Seventh Ministry of Machine Building, but also many other ministries such as the Ministry of Metallurgy and the First Ministry of Machine Building need to work together.

Being able to become the head of a large cross-departmental project will also be very beneficial for Zhu Jiansheng to increase his influence.

Naturally, Zhu Jiansheng also hopes that Jiang Hui can gain some benefits from the project.

“Having him involved gives me more confidence.”

"However, the design and production of intercontinental missile launchers are quite complicated. How do you consider the production and assembly of various prototypes?"

Since there is no problem with the direction of the project, we naturally need to consider how to implement the project.

Don't let the Capital University of Technology propose this big project and end up having the advantage taken away by someone else. That would be very frustrating.

"This is what I think. The school has its own metalworking practice factory, as well as some auxiliary parts factories that support Hummer military vehicles."

"Based on these factories, we can set up a factory dedicated to the production of special vehicles, and the name will be the Polytechnic Special Vehicle Factory."

"In the future, we can carry out some of the Hummer modification work in this factory, and also produce various missile launchers here."

"Even some other special vehicles, such as paratrooper assault vehicles, electronic jamming vehicles, radar vehicles and other related products, can be produced well in the future."

"In the future, our Polytechnic Special Vehicle Factory can be built into the largest special vehicle factory in China and make a contribution to the development of national defense."

After Zhu Jiansheng said this, Lin Guanyong immediately became interested.

It is certainly easier to cooperate with other factories under the Fifth Ministry of Machine Building, but many things cannot be carried out completely according to one's own ideas.

The key point is that in this kind of cooperation, the school only plays a supporting research role and its influence in the project is not particularly large.

However, by establishing a dedicated special vehicle factory, we can take control of everything from research and development to production.

The influence is different.
