Chapter 746: Long-range artillery battle
Phew-
With a characteristic whistling sound of rocket engines working, several Oak Stick anti-tank missiles flew out and pounced on the enemy at a distance of 1.9 kilometers.
After all, the Oak Stick is still the first generation of artillery-launched missiles, so it is not very fast, and can only fly a distance of about 200 meters per second.
Almost 10 seconds passed before the missiles were guided to hit the target.
The team that faced off against the Otowa was using a T-64A tank, which appeared to be equipped with reactive armor. Although the missile hit was quite explosive, none of them were actually able to deal damage.
After Maki's first round of attacks, the opposite side also quickly began to counterattack.
Boom –
An MBT70 was hit in the turret, and the slender tungsten core broke through the composite armor and burrowed into the inside of the hull.
"Damn, they actually have gold coins to impeach!"
After seeing this scene, Ma Ji was about to jump up.
The War Games Alliance's whiteboard rounds for the T-64 were not very effective, and it was difficult to penetrate the MBT70's turret head-on, which seems to be explained only by the gold bullets fired in the supply box.
"No wonder you dare to engage in an artillery duel with us at this distance. While operating the artillery, Otowa shouted over the radio, "Senpai, you retreat first, and I'll cover it." ”
"Please. ”
As soon as Maki's words fell, several MBT70s fired smoke grenades, instantly enveloping the team in a vast white smoke.
Of course, the team referred to here does not include Otowa and others.
"Next, it's time for us to perform. ”
Once the target in the scope was confirmed, Otowa gently pulled the trigger.
Compared with the slow missile, the speed of the APFSDS is much faster, hitting a target at a distance of 1.9 kilometers in less than two seconds.
Even from such a distance, the core made of depleted uranium alloy broke through the armor of the T-64 and burrowed into the turret of the enemy vehicle.
The name of the APFSDS sounds long and complicated, but in essence it is just a steel needle. Due to the small positive projection area of the projectile, the air resistance of the projectile during flight is not too large, and the kinetic energy attenuation of the APFSDS at a long distance is actually very small.
"One. ”
After Otowa finished speaking, he quickly spun the turret.
After losing one of their teammates, the remaining three vehicles on the opposite side quickly reacted and turned their guns to the vehicle that Otowa and the others were on.
In less than two seconds, Otowa's XM1 was hit by three shells in quick succession.
"Reactive armor saved us. ”
It was only then that Chizuru, who was sitting in the driver's seat, breathed a sigh of relief.
If Otowa is not mistaken, the 3BM-26 or 3BM-29 should be fired on the opposite side, both of which have a penetration of more than 450mm at a distance of 2 km, enough to penetrate the XM1's frontal armor.
So, reactive armor is really a good civilization.
"Reload complete!"
"Good work. ”
Boom –
A 105mm shell quickly broke away from the muzzle and hit the target with a hard hit.
The landing point of the shells is the same as last time, the vertical part of the armor on both sides of the T-64A gun, which is also considered a position that the enemy tank can not penetrate with a small number of positions.
Undeterred, the remaining two enemy tanks attacked Otowwa's tank again, but this time the shells still didn't work.
Although the gunner on the opposite side is not simple, his level is obviously not at the level of Otowa. They can only guarantee hitting the target at a distance of two kilometers, and there is no way to adjust the specific landing point of the shell.
The reload speed of the two sides was about the same, so the battle suddenly became turn-based, and after the cannon was fired on the opposite side, it was Otowa and their turn.
Boom –
The turret of one T-64 flew up in an instant, and it took several seconds before it fell back to the ground, startling the crew of another T-64 on the side.
When the attack was ineffective and the teammates were beaten three times in a row, the last T-64 decisively chose to admit it, and instantly fired the mounted smoke grenade at one time.
"Do you want to escape......
Otowa smiled and shook his head, then aimed his scope somewhere in the smoke.
"This shot is OK!"
After pushing the shell into the artillery, Mika breathed a sigh of relief.
Boom –
The vehicle shook under the impact of the artillery fire, and it took a while to re-stabilize.
After confirming the situation in the smoke through his mental power, a smile suddenly appeared on Otowa's face.
"Senior Sister Maji, the problem is solved. ”
"Otowa did a good job, I really didn't mistake you!" Ma Ji said with some excitement.
……
After this wonderful wave of four shellings, the audience in the venue instantly exploded again.
"The gunnery of the gun has reached the pinnacle, and there is no one who can guarantee such a high accuracy at a distance of 2 kilometers. ”
Looking at the replay of the scene on the screen, the red-haired girl couldn't help but sigh.
"All four of the IOP's vehicles are equipped with reactive armor, and most of the frontal positions of the body can withstand the fire of the M733. The blue-haired girl analyzed the data and said, "But all the shells fired by the gun hit the vertical part of the front of the T-64 turret, and it was forced to complete the kill." ”
Reactive armor has a good defensive effect against armor-piercing shells only when it is arranged at an angle, which is why reactive armor is more common in Soviet tanks, and Western tanks with less inclined armor angles are not very fond of using it.
The four shells that Otowa had just fired avoided the slanted part of the enemy's armor and hit one of the few verticals on the front of the vehicle.
To put it simply, Otowa was able to defeat these four chariots by his own skills, and if someone else were to fight, it would probably be a clank to see who reacted to the armor first.
"At a distance of 2 kilometers, they can accurately hit the weak points of enemy vehicles, and the gunnery of the gunbook is matched with the armor of the XM1, they are simply invincible in long-distance artillery battles. The red-haired girl spoke with a little emotion.
"Well, the gun is the best player I've ever seen. If the final battle was on the plains, they could be said to have won. The blue-haired girl paused, and then continued: "But judging from the current trend of shrinking circles, the final battlefield is mostly the city. ”
"Street fighting...... the corners of the red-haired girl's mouth curled, and then said with a slight smile: "This is very interesting, anything can happen in the chaos." ”
The combat distance in street battles is generally very short, and the terrain is very complex, and if you don't do it, you will encounter a situation where you will meet love around the corner.
The front of the main battle tank is generally very strong, but the sides are not. Even with additional armor, it can only block chemical bullets, and it can still be easily penetrated by armor-piercing shells.
