Chapter 145: Hanging
Although all 10 of the Oarai Aviation Department's fighters were pulled to steal their homes, this does not mean that they cannot provide support to the Armored Department. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
An OS2U Kingfisher that took off from the USS Baltimore hurried over and came to the sky above the battlefield.
Although this water reconnaissance plane cannot attack the opposing combat vehicle, it can provide information on the opposite convoy, which is equivalent to helping the Oarai Armor Department open a full map.
Even without this reconnaissance plane, Himeko is 100% sure that she will take the opposite side, and now that there is a reconnaissance plane, the battle situation is a sure-win version of the slaughter.
The centurion and auriga of Jasmine Women's Academy couldn't run in the first place, and now they don't have a vision, so it can be said that they are already GG.
With the assistance of the water scout, the 20 tanks of the Oarai Armored Division easily rounded up the pair, and now as long as Himeko gave the order, they could immediately launch a general attack.
"One last confirmation, are the teams ready?"
"Squadron B, in position. ”
"Squadron C, has arrived at the intended position. ”
"It's noon, let's do it!" Himeko said lightly.
After the order was given, the tanks of the Oarai Armored Division moved one after another.
The first to engage the enemy were the Pershings in front, and one after another Pershing peeked out of the turret from behind the dirt slope.
Since Oarai has the initiative to choose the battlefield, of course it is necessary to choose a terrain that has an advantage over one's side.
Although the Pershing is a heavy tank, the body is not too hard, the frontal armor is only 101mm/47°, and the anti-Tiger Panther shells are okay, but it is a little difficult to face the 20-pounder gun.
Fortunately, Pershing's turret is hard enough and has a good depression angle, so it can be used to sell his head.
Pershing on Oarai's side hid the body behind the dirt slope, revealing only a turret. Let's not talk about whether you can hit or not, whether you can hit or not is a question.
"The shelling begins!"
Himeko's Pershing quickly completed aiming, and immediately fired a 90mm armor-piercing bullet.
Although the penetration depth of the M82 projectile fired by the 90mm M3 gun is average, it is powerful enough, and it basically penetrates in seconds, not giving the opposite side a chance to continue life at all.
The Centurion MK.III is actually somewhat armored, but this armor is as embarrassing as the Pershing, it is more than enough than the top, and it can't block the shells of the same level of combat vehicles.
The 90mm shell hit the left side of a Centurion MK.III, easily penetrating the 76mm armor.
Why do you want to hit the left head, because there's an ammo rack behind it.
The evil capitalist Britain simply did not treat the crew as a human being, and the Soviet Union only put a fuel tank next to the driver, and the British put 20 shells directly next to the driver......
In addition to the United Kingdom, the combat vehicles of many capitalist countries are designed in this way, for example, the explosion 1 with 42 rounds of 105mm shells next to the driver, and the M60 with the driver in the Shura field of 26 rounds of 105mm shells or something,
Although the Centurion took a lot of precautions to prevent the ammunition from detonating, these precautions were not used in the face of the powerful M82 bomb.
The centurion was detonated on the spot, and then exploded in an instant.
Although the turret did not fly, the pilot's hatch and turret canopy took off, and two pillars of fire rushed out from here.
There is no doubt that there are no living people in this centurion.
After being caught off guard, Jasmine Women's Academy's chariot also reacted quickly.
Smoke grenades were fired out, and the smoke produced directly blocked the vision of both sides.
The captain of the armored department of Jasmine Women's Academy is not stupid, it is difficult for his own side to get a hit now, and even if he hits, it may not necessarily hurt, but the opposite side hits his own side is a hit one by one.
Jasmine's captain's head hadn't been caught in the crack in the door, so of course he wouldn't do anything stupid to shoot at Oarai.
"The expected reaction. Himeko paused, then said with a smile: "Squadron B, Squadron C can do it." ”
Squadron B and Squadron C were two teams of the Jasmine Women's College convoy from the side, each with five T-44s.
Just when the chariot of Jasmine Women's Academy thought that it could breathe a sigh of relief, the two teams of Oarai suddenly came out and caught Jasmine Women's College by surprise again.
Although the armor-piercing ability of the 85mm S-53 is average, the Centurion's 51mm side armor can still be hit casually.
The T-44 on Oarai's side soon launched an attack, and fired a shot at the Centurion's side.
The side of the centurion also hurts, with a driver and ammunition rack in front, a gunner, a commander, a loader, and an engine and fuel tank in the rear.
BR-367 is also an 85mm caliber shell, and the damage will naturally not be bad, and even if it is not dead if it is fired from the side, it will be crippled.
After firing a shot, the T-44s on Oarai's side marched again.
The chariots of Jasmine Women's Academy also quickly launched a counterattack, but the T-44 on Oarai's side was also very cunning, and changed positions after a shot, not giving the other side a chance to take a closer look at it at all.
The T-44's front armor at a 90mm/60° normal angle is still a bit hard, and it is very magical, and the shell is very easy to ricochet when hit.
The T-44's turret has a small frontal projection area, which is very difficult to hit, and a hand-sliding shell flies to the side armor of the turret at a super large angle.
In frontal combat, Oarai's T-44 still didn't switch to the BR-367P, which had a higher penetration depth, and although it could penetrate the Centurion's armor from the front, it couldn't do much damage.
Tungsten Core Armor-Piercing Bullet (APCR) is solid as the name suggests, and there is no charge included, and the damage depends on the armor that falls off during penetration and the possible fragmentation projectile.
If you're unlucky, it's even possible to make a pair of passes without touching anything, which is the legendary innocent pass.
Compared with not being able to penetrate, it is the most annoying thing to penetrate without harm. Therefore, APCBC and APHE are kings, APC, APDS, HEAT are all cults!
"Okay, let's go too~"
The T-44 in front is already grabbing meat, and this wave of Pershing on the front can't drink it anymore without soup.
The battle situation is almost one-sided, there is no way, Da Yu has a quantitative advantage, a quality advantage, and a vision advantage, if you can't hang and kill yourself.
Oarai easily ate the wave of troops from Jasmine Women's College, and his own losses were only three T-44s, or 10% of the tanks.
