Although the second set of test launches was tense, there was no suspense. Three new air defense missiles that were tested were launched, climbed, deflected until the fuel was exhausted and landed on the ground in an extremely perfect posture. With the successful test launch of these three missiles, the dispute over the engineering of the missile body was also known:

Needless to say, Tong Wenlie and Mao Tiesheng's side, the test shots show everything, and proves the correctness of Lu Jiadong's ideas from another side; Liu Wenzheng and Liao Yongchen have nothing to say about such a result, so they can only bow their heads and recognize it, but they are not covered in dust.

Because in his final summary of the statement, Lu Jiadong still affirmed the automation and large-scale industrial development advocated by Liao Yongchen, and decided to make the newly introduced casting production line of the Aerospace Factory a part of the industrial upgrading of small and medium-sized factories, and put it in the foundry factory, and proposed a development path that is parallel to modern and traditional crafts and complementary to each other. The dispute over air defense missile bodies ended happily.........

In this way, the new air defense missile project, which solved the problem of missile body technology, naturally entered the end of its development. After completing several small projects, the new air defense missile was officially installed and removed from the line, and then entered the performance testing stage.........

"Bang~~~Boom~~~~~~"

With a deafening roar, a gray-black smoke screen rose from the six-wheeled vertical launch vehicle produced by a six-wheeled truck of a special vehicle factory in southern Yunnan Province, and a new air defense missile quickly pierced the sky with a harsh roar. In the comprehensive control room not far away,

The scene of missile launching was presented on the large screen through several high-definition cameras, making the viewer feel like he was in the scene. Especially the members of the Saudi military delegation who provided a lot of funds for this project were staring at the large screen intently, making waves of whispers......

“This kind of launch is very special!”

Seeing the missile jump out of the square hanging launch module, Prince Khalid, the leader of the Saudi military delegation, nodded meaningfully. Today, Prince Khalid has long since gotten rid of his ignorant childishness and a mature temperament. With his just-rich black beard and exquisite and beautiful face, the innate nobility and stability are fully expressed.

"That's of course. If you don't look at who this air defense missile system comes from, that's the genius Lu. Not to mention anything else, this launch method alone is comparable to the Soviet S-300 air defense missile. Even if it is just equipped with the MK-41 vertical launch system, it is not much different. As for the US Army's "Patriot" system, it is even more incomparable!"

As soon as Prince Khalid finished speaking, Pakistani Chief of Staff Musharraf, who was standing side by side, explained proudly that as an important partner of the new air defense missile system, Musharraf was extremely satisfied with this air defense missile system. During the missile development process, he visited Northeast Heavy Industry Group several times. After entering the overall verification stage, he even allowed the Pakistani Air Force to participate. Because of this, Musharraf had a deep understanding of the performance of this new air defense system.

"Dear Lu, with your intelligence, you should know how fast the heat emission rate is, almost every second. When an enemy plane attacks, if there is such an air defense fire density, it is enough to form a skylight before the target, the interception success rate will inevitably increase exponentially. I don't believe you don't know these, and I don't believe that you use your ability to create a vertical launch system similar to the mk-41!"

Prince Khalid always has a personality of saying one thing and two things. No matter where, no matter who he is treated, it is the same. Even when and where he is, even when facing his strict father and even the noble king of Saudi Arabia, Lu Jiadong and Musharraf, who have a strong personal relationship with him, know this very well, but the others present are not clear about it. Especially the members of the development team of the new air defense missile system present, after learning about Prince Khalid's meaning through the translation, they changed their color slightly, and their nervousness was even more expressed. They kept sweeping Lu Jiadong with nervous eyes.

Lu Jiadong didn't care. In addition to knowing Prince Khalid's character, more importantly, there is enough reason to adopt the cold launch method, so he smiled indifferently and said:

"The thermal emission method is certainly good, but as a land-based air defense launch system, it has a fatal disadvantage!"

Prince Khalid heard Lu Jiadong's words and immediately became interested. His eyes were wide open, "What are the shortcomings?"

“The heat radiation is too great!”

Lu Jiadong's voice was extremely slow, but each syllable bite was extremely heavy. Prince Khalid's eyebrows closed when he heard this, as if he had thought of something, but before he could speak, Lu Jiadong's voice rang out in his ears:

"The heat launch device uses ignition in the missile device, so that the high-temperature tail flame of the missile remains in the device, making the infrared thermal radiation characteristics of the entire launch vehicle extremely obvious. If it is placed on a warship and the automatic spraying of sea water can also alleviate this thermal radiation characteristic. However, it is not so convenient on land, especially in desert areas in the Middle East, water resources are comparable to gold and cannot be used for spraying and cooling..."

Upon hearing this, Prince Khalid changed color slightly. He knew very well what the strong infrared thermal radiation characteristics mean in modern warfare. It is important to know that infrared guided missiles from countries around the world are not decorations. Even the temperature emitted by tanks, armored vehicles and engines can be captured. High-temperature signal sources such as missile tail flame are simply bright lights in the dark, and it is difficult to see them.

It is precisely because of this target with high thermal radiation characteristics that has a very low survival rate in modern warfare. As an air defense missile system with extremely high value, this aspect has to be considered. Although this is clear, Prince Khalid was a little unwilling to give up and asked:

“Isn’t it OK to use air-cooled equipment?”
