you ever seen such a bomb scene? Remote monitoring and technical personnel sitting room light pressed a button, they used artillery shells into the pipeline through the transmission belt, auto dismantling of components, and then sent automatically destroyed furnace shells, furnace issued a muffled sound, which “end” … …

not fly over the head of the shrapnel, does not diffuse around the smoke, the traditional people getting scared of the bomb scene was gone. Replaced by a fully automatic hydraulic transmission, computer control, sound and light alarm, visual surveillance, closed furnace … These allow the destruction of dangerous bomb disposal equipment away, is Navy ammunition repair test station Chong Gene masterpiece.

along, munitions destruction of traditional ways need to waste ammunition to the first destruction of the fixed field, easily during transport accident. Chong Gene thought that if the destruction of field devices into the destruction of fixed mobile device, can be extremely dangerous and not the explosive destroyed on the spot it?

So, he and his comrades successfully developed a “self-propelled munitions destruction system,” “self-propelled ammunition testing platform.” This special equipment can be extended with the commencement of tens of meters long, mobile oven and transfer to bring the destruction of the officers and men to stay a safe distance, like a flow of munitions destruction facility.

Earlier this year, the Navy intended to scrap of tons of ordnance and ammunition. Many age-old mine waste, many times in history the organization had destroyed, but all because of dangerous, inconvenient transportation has had to delay the destruction of time. Now, the “self-propelled munitions destruction system” put a big help, Ray successfully sent tens of thousands of safe destruction of explosive shells.

bomb sometimes need to cut missile, according to traditional methods and technology, is bound to produce sparks and heat, would be too dangerous. Chong Gene is another magic weapon – the “water knife” can easily solve this problem. It uses silicon carbide mixed with water to form a sharp “water knife” to cut the missile body, can effectively avoid the cutting sparks and friction heat.

“water jet” designed to deal with long years in particular, especially difficult dismantling ammunition. Navy missile used a rusty warehouse group, who did not dare to act rashly.

Chong Gene to run for the. He will be firmly tied to a bundle with the missile body, one side to the operation command of a crane tank missiles move side to remind the officers and men live with a good hand to prevent the missile body swing. Two minutes later, the missile is loaded into boxes filled with a half tank of water operations firmly fixed.

“turn on the water!” “Turn!” Two seconds later, a surge of water from the head office makes a shot, hit straight in the regular rotation of the missiles. “Ready to cut, between the safe operation of all retreat.”

At this point, between the real-time images from the monitor can see, high pressure water mixed with diamond shape of a sword, magic in the thick bomb the wall leaving a cutting line, the missile moment “disintegration.”

destruction site, cutting the spark out of sight, but the innovation of the “spark” exception brilliant. Destruction of a certain type of ship artillery, because for too long has been cured, and the missile tail can not be separated. Roasted heating? Most devices ship firing shells from the black powder composition, the lighting is low, the consequences can be imagined; electric heating? Difficult to control the temperature, the results equally difficult to predict. Difficult for the occasion, Chong Gene blurting: “water heating!”

physical properties of water stable, easy to control the boiling point, good very well, but no one ever tried this approach. “I am confident that, let me try.” I saw Chong Gene will ship into the water tank shells gently and slowly control the heater and watch the water boiling bubbles emerge gradually, he grabbed out of set of pliers warheads, deep call breath, forced a twist, a success!

dangerous moment, more military character; life and death, is even more came out on top. Chong Gene and successfully destroyed in 20 years nearly one million tons of waste ammunition. Life and death every Jedi students, good luck, by the courage and the courage, but also relies on creative thinking. Innovative cast legend, the legend is Chong Gene, is the force of legend.
