After two days of construction, the tank simulation trainers were finally installed and debugged.

In the canopy, there is a simulator parked above each cement tunnel. Since the base below is installed in the cement tunnel, the tracks are located flush with the ground, and it looks like two rows of real tanks, parked here and waiting for repair, and it can almost be fake and real.

At this time, the technicians in charge of the installation invited the instructors again and asked them to actually try it out. The effect of the trainer in actual use has been tested and the existing problems are recorded as the basis for subsequent modifications.

More than a dozen instructors from China were already feeling itchy. As soon as they received the notice that they could start the actual test, they immediately stopped the ongoing teaching work and all of Hulala ran over. The cadres such as the Tank Brigade Chai Brigade and other cadres were naturally not allowed and rushed over.

"Can you get on the bus?" Instructor Chen, who led the team, asked with his eyes lit up.

"Okay! You have been teaching for so long, and you probably have taught them the general operation. It's better to take a tank team one by one and get on the vehicle to test it in practice to see how it works?" The technician in charge of directing the installation work said with a smile.

"Not bad! This is a good idea!" Brigade Commander Chai and others were overjoyed and immediately supported him.

The instructors looked at each other, and they all saw the eagerness and unyielding look in each other's eyes: "Okay! Let's compete to see who teaches the apprentice is better!"

"I have no objection. It's a mule or a horse. Just pull it out and you will know!"

"No problem! They have been studying for so long, and it's time to touch the real car. Although this is just a training tank, it looks no different from a real car. So let's go up and try it."

"Okay, you guys will choose someone first."

With a lively mentality, the technicians pushed over a trolley full of cardboard boxes, opened a cardboard box, took out a tank helmet from it, and handed it over.

"This is the helmet you have developed?" Instructor Chen asked his instructors to select people first. When he saw the helmet handed over by the other party, he took it and looked at it, and immediately said in surprise.

"Yes! The old tank helmet is a soft helmet. Although it is equipped with vertical buffer strips, it is still easy to touch the head and the sound insulation effect is also very poor. We made this hard helmet with the same material as Kevlar helmet, which greatly enhanced the protection effect.

There is a layer of soundproof lining with memory metal as a skeleton inside the helmet, which can automatically adapt to different head shapes and sizes. It will feel tight when you first wear it. But as long as you wear it once, the lining can remember the skull characteristics of the person you are wearing, and you will feel that it is just right next time you wear it.

The buffer pad has a sound insulation effect, which can reduce the noise of the internal motivation of the tank to below 40 degrees Celsius, and the silent effect is the same as in the picture gallery.

This is the switch of the internal telephone. After turning on it, you can receive the internal channel call content.

This is a throat communicator, you don’t need to open your mouth and talk, you can make a call through a throat vibrating.”

The technicians allocated the helmets and telephones to the instructors who were preparing to wait for the vehicle test, and the commanders and fighters of the Tank Brigade, and explained them how to use them.

These unheard equipment attracted the instructors' praise again. But once they were worn, the memory metal would automatically remember the head shape. Instructor Chen put down the helmet that he was about to wear and hesitated: "I haven't worn it, so others can't use it? Forget it, I'll wear the original helmet."

The other instructors nodded.

The technicians smiled and waved their hands: "It's okay, as long as the memory metal is heated, it will return to its original state. You can use it well. When you leave, we will send you a batch to help us promote it and see if we can help us get more orders."

Everyone laughed.

Since I was not afraid of not going yet, of course, the new helmet looked better. The instructors immediately raised their helmets and buckled them on their heads.

I really felt a little tight when I put it on, but after I put it on, the originally tight helmet felt close to my head, cheeks and chin, as if it was customized to my head. The soft genuine leather pads pressed against the skin, which felt very comfortable and had excellent sound insulation. The person on the other side could only see his mouth open and close, and he could not hear any sound. This high-tech thing is indeed much more useful than the soft helmets before.

Unexpectedly, modern technology can even do this.

It's so amazing!

Everyone looked at each other and saw that each other was wearing a helmet, just like a pilot, handsome and heroic, and were very satisfied.

With the one-on-one assistance of the technicians, they practiced the throat telephone and quickly mastered the tricks of use. The internal frequency band immediately became lively. Everyone laughed happily for a while, then simply divided the teams and divided the dozen instructors into two tank companies, each with six tanks.

There are only 64 tanks in the base area, which are basically impossible to replenish in the future.

Therefore, in terms of organization, the Tank Brigade has two tank battalions under its jurisdiction, each battalion has two tank companies under its jurisdiction, with only six tanks in each company. In terms of the number of tank vehicles, it is only less than half of the heavy-armed troops of the same level of the US military, and the tank team directly under the battalion headquarters has only four tanks, which is very small in scale.

In the current situation where it has not yet become an independent political entity, there is no way to do so.

"superior!"

With a command, more than a dozen instructors took their soldiers to pick and jumped onto the body of the training simulator. Compared with their agility, the soldiers of the Tank Brigade were much worse. Many people had to step on the load-bearing wheels, tracks, and support the body of the car to climb up. Some people also needed to reach out to help with their comrades before they could get onto the chariot.

"What's this?" Instructor Chen helped the two soldiers get onto the chariot, turned around to face the turret, saw something he was not familiar with, and said strangely.

The technicians also wore helmets and were ready to guide them through the internal telephone. After hearing the tank parts he was looking at, he explained: "Oh, this is a crosswind meter. Through it, you can detect lateral winds, which are used as parameters for fire control computer design, and improve shooting accuracy."

"Your tanks are too advanced. Even I, an old tank soldier, can't understand a lot of things. But you are too spoiled, so it's fine if the wind direction instrument is there, why is there an air conditioner behind the turret? Is there anyone who brings an air conditioner to the battlefield?" Instructor Chen shook his head, opened the top hatch cover, looked inside, and was stunned again.

It was completely different from the 95 cabin he was familiar with.

Most of the old-style 59 tanks use castings, sand holes and burrs everywhere, which looks very rough and simple. The same is true in the cabin where the tank soldiers are in. And because it is an oval turret, the space inside is even smaller. After the tank soldiers enter, they are basically crowded and crowded.

But when he looked down from the top, he saw that the interior of the bottom was painted white. At a rough look, the space was at least half wider than the original Wujiu tank!

However, as an old tank soldier, he quickly distinguished the internal structure layout.

There is a seat with its back facing the turret on the left side, and there is a periscope hanging in front, which should be the position of the captain; the right side is the seat in front of the front, which is obviously the position of the gunner.

The captain and gunner were isolated in the middle, about one foot high, and the rectangular projection that penetrated the entire turret, you didn't need to think about it and it was the tail of the tank gun.

Behind it, there should be a loader connected.

Originally, there was a loader position on it, but it was said that it had been cancelled and changed to an automatic loader. Therefore, there was no trace of the semi-lying loader seat. The tail of the cannon and the loader were covered by a clearly angular cover, which looked much more refreshing.

This cover can also be used as a workbench, but it can kill two birds with one stone.

"Go down!"

Instructor Chen quickly scanned the modified turret and compared it with the inside of the turret of the Type 59 tank that he remembered. Then he called out, supported the top cover with his hand, and took the lead to go inside.

Then, he assisted below, helped the driver in, and sent him into the cab located in the front of the vehicle body.

Taking advantage of this time, he also took the situation in the cab into consideration.

The cab space of the Wujiu Tank can only allow one driver to move forward. The interior is even more simple. Apart from the few foot-step crossbars in front, the shift gears and joysticks of the left and right hands, there is nothing. The driver is half lying and sitting on a reclining chair with an inclined seat like a train hard seat, with both feet waiting on the accelerator and brake, and through the belt-shaped observation window in front, watching the width of the road ahead and driving the chariot.

Now that the turret space is increased, the driver can at least curl up and squat into it. However, the cab is inside the body and cannot be changed, so the space is still the same small.

Fortunately, the inside was redecorated, and the same as the inside of the turret was coated with white paint, accelerator, brake and other devices were made as beautiful as possible. A row of instrument panels was added, which looked like an advanced tank of the foreign army. In addition, the original lounge chair was also changed to a soft leather seat, and there was a larger support surface under the butt, which allowed the driver to sit slightly straight, so that it would not be too frustrating, and it would be more comfortable to sit up.

However, this soft seat can only be used if it is equipped with an improved air conditioner.

Otherwise, under the high temperature of dozens of degrees inside the tank, the driver is surrounded by this leather seat, which is probably no different from being tortured.

However, the location of the observation window was dark, as if it was blocked.

He asked the driver to reach out and touch it to see if there were loose leafs inside the blinds, blocking the observation window, but heard the technician stopping: "Don't touch it, there is a monitor screen, and it's not powered now, so of course it doesn't look like nothing. When you turn on the power, you can see the picture displayed on it, which can simulate the observation effect of your observation in the car and watching the changes in the scenery outside through the observation window."

So that's it!

Instructor Chen glanced at the gunner's side, then looked at the row of instruments beside him, and couldn't help but be stunned.

The Wujiu Tank does not have so many instruments and it is even more impossible to have a screen. But now, not only does it have a display screen in front of him, but there is also one on the gunner. By the way, when the driver got into the cab just now, there seemed to be a flat TV screen.

Good guy, these are all kinds of electronic devices installed in the base area!

The number of instruments and instruments is at least twice as many as before, and most of them have never seen them. Fortunately, although there are many instruments and equipment, the layout is very good. They are all attached to the bulkhead and installed in a closed steel-shell instrument table. They are clean and tidy. They feel that the old cabin with fewer instruments and equipment is more concise and does not take up any space.

But, how do you use these things?

He was worried about staring at a lot of equipment, not knowing where to start.

"Are you already in place?" The technician who was responsible for guiding them also climbed onto the body of the car, leaned into his head from the open hatch, and saw that everyone was already in place, then pointed out Instructor Chen to turn on the red power button on the console.

When the power was turned on, a soft white light suddenly lit up on the top.

A white light also appeared in the cab below in front. You can see that it turned out to be black, and the location of the observation window gradually became brighter, and you can see the picture outside. If you didn’t distinguish it carefully, it would be like the scenery you saw through the observation window.

Instructor Chen looked up and found that it was installed with a circle of light tubes close to the edge of the cockpit. He looked closely and poked his finger. It turned out that this was not an ordinary glass fluorescent tube, but a soft lamp made of unknown transparent material. I guess it was to prevent it from being damaged by vibration.

"Next, I'll explain to you the functions and operation methods of these devices."

Under the instructions of the technician, Instructor Chen and others finally understood the functions of each device, used the control method, and tried to use it. However, there were too many devices, and they couldn't see all kinds of instruments, and the control method was even more vague and could not be used freely.

Although he was an instructor who taught tank brigades to fight tanks, he was a newbie in the use of these newly added equipment.

"Okay, just get a brief familiarity first. Let's start the actual simulation. First, we will conduct the primary marching and driving training. Instructor Chen, you turn on the computer, yes, that's it. Have you seen the content displayed on the screen? Choose the primary training subject, okay, then choose the driving subject, yes, that's it, okay, let's start now, hey, don't move, wait for me to go down." The technician in charge of the explanation probed and covered the hatch, and Instructor Chen locked the hatch as if he was driving a tank.

A few seconds later, the technician's voice sounded from the headphone: "Okay, you can drive the car."

Instructor Chen immediately issued an order to the team members through the throat telephone: "Hua Yi, can you hear my voice? Dong Wenrui, can you hear the voice?"

"Can hear it!"

"I heard it very clearly!"

The two team members replied at the same time.

"Very good. We first check the status of the tank. We are not familiar with many of these equipment, but we should follow the original steps to check each one and then inform me of the situation."

"clear!"

"clear!"

The two team members responded in unison and then began to inspect the car before starting the car according to the previous process. During this process, Instructor Chen also walked the inspection process of the Wujiu Tank in the captain's position. Although most instruments are different from the original, the basic usage method is roughly the same. Except that they are not used to it, they are no different from before.

What puzzled him was that the readings of these instruments were almost exactly the same as his actual experience on the 59th tank.

If he hadn't been outside and had seen the trainer on the base with his own eyes, he would have almost thought he was sitting inside a real tank and was doing a check before starting.

Too real!

After feedback from each inspection, except for the equipment that I don’t know how to use, all other inspections have been passed one by one.

"Huayi, start!"

"I understand!" The driver answered clearly from the phone.

As he started the motive, the tank began to tremble, as if the motive was really running, the vibration generated.
