Chapter 120: Pershing
"Okay, now the important thing is to analyze Sandas's strength, we actually don't have no chance of winning."
At this time, the student council room has been crowded into 7 people.,Except for the five people in the Miho car group.,It's the girl and the president.,And now it's the girl herself who is speaking.。
Facing the curious gazes of the crowd, the girl coughed softly, and then continued.
"First of all, Sandas's main force is the thirteen heavy tanks in the team, and the T95 super heavy tank, which has a speed of only 8 miles per hour (12.87 km/h), can be ignored."
T95 is really useless, at least it's not a threat to Oarai. I'm afraid this thing can only be used in a decisive battle with Hesse's chariot, at least against the rat.
Why do you say you can't move? No problem, the mouse can't hit the T95, so in the end, it can only become a situation of the tracks, and the tracks of the mouse are very wide, and it is not difficult to hit, as for the T95...... Four crawler rats, you're going to bite me.
"Among them, seven of Sandas's heavy tanks are 'Pershing' heavy tanks. The Pershing is also divided into several models, namely the E3 type with strong maneuverability, the E4 type with strong firepower, and the E5 type with strong protection. ”
"The E3 and E4 Pershing are 4-inch armor (101mm) with a frontal armor arranged at a normal angle of 46 degrees, and the equivalent thickness is 135mm, of course, because it is inclined armor, the protection effect will only be better than this, and only the Firefly and T-44/100 can penetrate from the front at close range. The sides are also 3 inches (76 mm) thick, but this one is vertical, and our main vehicle can almost penetrate at normal engagement distances. The gun shield on the front of the turret is 4.5 inches (114.3 mm), which is relatively easy to fight, and our vehicles can still fight with tungsten core bullets at close range. ”
"The E5 model is more troublesome, the head angle is still 46 degrees of normal, but the thickness has been increased by half, reaching a thickness of 6 inches (152mm), and the equivalent thickness of the front pair alone has reached more than 220mm, and this guy's turret protection is even more **, and the gun shield alone has reached the level of 11 inches (279.4mm), that is, none of our vehicles can destroy this thing from the front."
T26E5, that is, the predecessor of T32, has very ** frontal protection ability, not to mention the big wash, even Hesse Peak can't find a thing that can destroy this thing from the front.
What the? You say 128mmKwK.44L/55 of the rat and tiger hunting? First of all, this thing doesn't have the APCR that came out of thin air by WG, the biggest stick in history (WG, where do you find an APCR with KwK.44?). Even if it is only 100m, the PzGr.43 with a muzzle velocity of 845m/s can only penetrate the target plate placed at a normal angle of 30° at 187mm and Pershing at 2000m...... Are you insulting my IQ?
Translating 2000 feet to 2000m, I'm also drunk.
Of course, this is completely enough for the steamed bun and the T-34, and the damage effect of the 128mm shell is also much better than that of the 88mm. However, in the battle lane, it is another matter, in the face of the experimental vehicles of various countries, the low penetration depth and the strange reloading time brought by the 28.3kg sub-loading bomb make this thing in the battle lane not as long as the Tiger King's 88.
"Then there's the maneuverability, the T26E3 maneuvers very well, reaching 30 mph (48 km/h) on the road, which is arguably better than most of the vehicles on our side, and the E4 and E5 can also reach 25 mph (40 km/h) on the road."
"Doesn't that mean...... Doesn't our side have an advantage even in maneuvering? ”
In response to Saori's question, the girl nodded and shook her head again.
"Not exactly, the Pershing E3 weighs 92,355 pounds (41.89 tons), the E4 weighs 96,000 pounds (43.54 tons), and the E5 weighs 102,300 pounds (46.4 tons), and the FordGAF engine used in these vehicles can only provide 500 horsepower at 2,600 rpm, which means that the thrust-to-weight ratio of these vehicles is not high, and it is still so slow on soft ground."
"In other words, should we try to avoid urban warfare in our tactics this time?"
"That's right~, it's really Sister Miho, we should try to avoid cities that can allow Sandas's chariot to exert its full speed, and take advantage of the lighter weight of our chariot to drag the enemy into complex terrain for engagement."
"One more thing to pay attention to is the firepower of enemy vehicles. The T26E3 and E5 are equipped with 90mm M3 guns, and due to the rules, the M304 as an APCR is definitely not usable, so the T33 as an AP and the M82 as an APC can be used, which can penetrate 119mm and 120mm of armor arranged at a normal angle of 30° respectively at a distance of 500 yards (457.2m). The T26E4's 90mm T15E2 is much more powerful, using an AP - the T43 that is enough to penetrate 132mm thick armor at a distance of 500 yards (457.2m). ”
"In other words, except for my T-44/100, all of our vehicles are hits = destroyed, so maneuvering is our best protection, and it is very unwise to engage the enemy head-on."
"That's really ...... The pressure is huge, but what about the 7 in Sandas's 'Pershing' series, and the other six heavy tanks? Will it be easier to deal with? ”
That being said, the girl couldn't find a trace of pressure on the president's face at all.
After wiping a handful of sweat from her forehead, the girl gave the girl a blank look, and then continued to speak.
"Easy? T29, T34 and M6A2E1 as experimental vehicles, do you think they will be easier to deal with than the production Pershing? ”

PS1: We write books based on dry goods, and those German batons don't even understand the slightest bit of German tanks, which is really a shame for German fans.
PS2: I'm really drunk with today's event.,What is this? Do you still want to set up a torii arch when Bichi?
