The armor of the Type 59 tank, which inherited the ideas of the Mao line, was quickly manufactured.

Samples only, how many sets are produced is normal!

But what surprised Zhao Li was that this kind of serious holding an armor sample as the target of an RPG was going to make trouble!

The soldiers were excited.

Looking at the fact that this armor, which is all made of high-strength alloy, is also mixed with a part of heat-resistant metal, Zhao Li almost understands that this armor will not withstand a simple test this time.

Sure enough, before Zhao Li could figure out the defense brought by the bevel of these armors, an active Type 99 main battle tank drove over with a roar. The 125-mm Stockstock matte rifled tank gun was aimed directly at the armored sample at this time.

"The main gun of this tank is capable of using our special alloy armor-piercing projectiles at a range of 2,000 meters to penetrate 850 mm of homogeneous steel. To use the depleted uranium shells of the US imperialists, hehe, the breakdown effect can reach 950 mm! Now let's put this high-strength alloy to the test and see how far this tank needs to penetrate it! ”

Minister Wu's hands were the same, and ten armor samples were lined up.

The crew of the Type 99 tank, after receiving the order, drove the tank to the target shelling position.

Zhao Li also followed these visitors and retreated to a safe position.

At this time, the Type 99 tank, which had arrived at two thousand meters, let out a loud roar at the command of the order.

The armor-piercing bullet shot straight at the armor like a meteor.

"Hehe, God knows if this new armor can resist. Lao Wu packed the ticket and said that it was at stake, I think this thing is so easy. Even if the depleted uranium armor of the United States is like that, we can't penetrate it with one shot at two thousand meters. But as long as you get closer, this cannon will still have to be worn. ”

"That's right! Composite armor can't be handled, and I've heard that this kind of armor is basically made of pure metal. Can this still be played? Composite armor is now the mainstream of military technology! ”

Looking at the judgmental appearance of these people, Zhao Li picked up a report, and then looked at these people. "The hardness of high-strength alloys can reach harder than high-manganese steel, and this is only untreated, and the hardness of treated high-strength alloys can reach four times that of high-manganese steel, composite armor?"

Zhao Li smiled disdainfully. Even at the pinnacle of composite armor, depleted uranium armor is equivalent to a few hundred millimeters of homogeneous steel at best.

If you have to convert, this high-strength alloy armor can already be equivalent to 1,800 millimeters thick homogeneous steel.

Want to penetrate it unless you get close to the limit distance.

Otherwise, trying to penetrate this armor is like a fool's dream.

However, after this treatment of high-strength alloys. It can only be used as armor, not for other purposes.

However, this tank main armor is all about this attribute.

With just one shot, a small pothole appeared on the sample.

"Well done!" Minister Wu on the side took off his headphones and waved his fists excitedly. "Advance to a distance of 1800 meters, and then open fire, or use special alloy armor-piercing shells!"

The second shot still did not have the effect of penetration, it was still just a pothole.

The distance was then adjusted to 1,500 meters.

The result is still the same.

When the distance reached a kilometer, the men became nervous.

A thousand meters failed to penetrate!

900 meters failed to break through!

800 meters failed to break through!

700 meters, 600 meters failed to penetrate!

With the last breath, the distance was raised to five hundred meters, which barely penetrated the frontal armor.

Looking at this test result, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

500 meters to break through. What is this concept, which means that if a Type 59 tank is equipped with this kind of armor, to penetrate its armor, it even needs these new tanks to rush to it to within 500 meters to be able to penetrate.

Five hundred meters! The number of ways in which artillery is fired at a distance of several kilometers in modern warfare. According to the calculation of the maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour of this Type 99 main battle tank, the main battle tank can move a distance of 25 meters in one second at most, and 100 meters is four seconds. If you need to go 1,500 meters......

For a whole minute, with this tank approaching the maximum rate of fire of 10 rounds a minute. That is to say, by the time they advance to a distance that they can penetrate, they will need to withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of this tank at least ten times.

What is this?

Invincible armor protection?

You know, even the Ferdinand tank destroyer, who was called Nango in World War II. On the battlefield at that time, he knew that deliberate could even withstand the long-range attack of any tank.

Only when the opponent advances to a very close distance can they destroy the tank destroyers, named elephants.

Extreme defense, extreme firepower, this is the design idea of this tank destroyer.

Now this thing that Zhao Li took out made an old-fashioned Type 59 tank have extremely strong power in an instant, plus eye-catching defense capabilities.

"The frontal armor needs to be close to the range of 500 meters, the sides need to advance to 800 meters to penetrate, and even the battery needs to advance to within 500 meters. Even directly behind the tank would need to be penetrated within a kilometer. ”

After the recorder on the side reported all the actual numbers of the ten groups of tanks, these people were stunned!

Where is the armor of the Type 59 tank, it's just the skin of a little monster!

If such a monster is really put on the battlefield, it can simply be described as terrifying.

After the tests of the tank's main gun, the tests of such RPGs came again.

Anti-tank weapons such as armor-piercing shells, armor-fragmentation shells, and cloudburst rockets swarmed at the second batch of armor samples.

What Zhao Li cares about more is armor-shattering bullets and armor-piercing bullets.

The more troublesome part of the cloudburst rocket is that this kind of ammunition does not rely on the ship's effect, it is filled with all cloudburst agent, which is the so-called air explosive, and this high-energy fuel is thrown away after detonation. It mixes with air and explodes violently, a process known as cloud detonation. Because the process of such detonation is long and the range of action is large, the destructive effect on the target is naturally strong. Relying on the high pressure and temperature field effect generated by the detonation, the erosion of high temperature and high pressure, or even just the combustion of oxygen, the rapid combustion of surrounding oxygen can cause great harm to the safety of the members of the tank crew.

Although ordinary tanks are not afraid of the burning of this thing, they still have to give this thing a try.

Armor fragmentation and armor-piercing bullets are easier to understand.

Armor fragmentation shells form an attack wave by bombarding the surface armor, thereby shattering the internal armor, and then causing the internal armor fragments to fly out and kill and injure the internal tank crew members.

This projectile body tests the resistance of the armor to shock waves, but it is the same. This kind of armor fragmentation bullet actually has a lot of shortcomings, at least this armor for the current tank, only need to install a set of external armor.

However, this kind of magic skill of fighting cattle across the mountain is like an atomic pendulum clock, which is of great significance.

There are two kinds of tanks that are most afraid, one is the armor-piercing projectile of the main battle tank that relies on physical hardness and kinetic energy to pierce armor.

The other is the more popular armor-piercing bullet.

The principle of armor-piercing bullets is that after being detonated with gunpowder, the pressure melts the powder hood, causing it to move plastically towards the axis in its normal direction, and the speed of the metal jet can reach a rate of fire of one thousand meters per second. The average temperature is as high as 900 to 1,000 degrees Celsius, but the theoretical maximum temperature of this kind of thing can reach 5,000 degrees Celsius, which is enough to melt anything.

It is precisely because of this high rate of fire that the high-temperature metal jet has a powerful destructive power on the armor.

This kind of armor-piercing bullet can be said to be another kind of armor buster and tank killer in addition to armor-piercing bullets.

Only this time the tank killer didn't even break through his armor.

One goes down, but it doesn't work. The front cannot be penetrated.

The second one could not penetrate the side when it went down.

Even going around to the rear or even shooting directly above with a high platform has no effect.

Zhao Li stood in the distance and sneered, the metal jet of this armor-piercing projectile was only five thousand degrees Celsius at most, and the heat-resistant metal could withstand such high temperatures without any treatment. Not even softened.

At most, this kind of metal jet armor-piercing projectile relies on a high rate of fire to penetrate one or two layers of heat-resistant metal layers.

However, the armor of the entire tank is composite, which means that there is definitely more than one layer of heat-resistant metal in the middle. This kind of Cheng dù's armor-piercing bullet can definitely be stopped.

Even if the other party has adopted the empowerment method. can be blocked.

Several attempts have failed, and the armor can only be described as a metamorphosis.

You know, it's still just the defense capability of the armor itself. Some other auxiliary armor is sometimes installed on the surface of some tanks, such as the reactive armor in the more famous external armor, anti-RPG fences, etc., which are all a kind of external armor, especially the reactive armor has a strong ability to protect against armor-piercing shells.

Rely on the explosion to completely destroy the metal jet, so that it cannot deal effective damage to the dealer.

That's the way to go!

At this point, the test is almost coming to an end.

The high-ranking officials who visited opened their mouths one by one, as if they could eat an egg.

Zhao Li smiled indifferently. The strength of this armor had long been expected by him, and although this kind of fanfare test gave him some headaches, on the whole, he was still very satisfied with the effect. Even if it wasn't as tough as he thought it would be, it was enough.

The weight of a light tank, the protection of a heavy tank, this protection ability has far exceeded that of many tanks.

In addition, there are a lot of heat-resistant metals embedded in this one.

The strength of this armor definitely exceeds that of depleted uranium armor, the pinnacle of today's composite armor.

"Depleted uranium armor is too inhumane, the kind of thing that also emits nuclear radiation, it is actually used as armor, although I know that uranium is very hard, but you can't joke with the lives of soldiers, the style of the US imperialists is really obvious." After Zhao Li finished speaking, he picked up the tablet on the side, and now the complete design drawings of a Type 59 tank and a Type 99 tank have been downloaded from this tablet.

Artificial intelligence was saved almost immediately.

"In fact, the inside of our tank is quite good, at least the sealing system, the three-proof system also has a slightly high-pressure setting, which can greatly improve the survivability of these tank groups, but because the overall weight of the armor is reduced, the center of gravity of this car is lower. This is not bad for a tank, and because the weight of the armor is reduced, you can also add a tool box or something like an external fuel tank. Zhao Li narrowed his eyes, the design of this Type 99 main battle tank made him a little excited.

At present, most of the equipment in my hands is obtained from the maintenance center of the US military, and it is still very good to be able to get the equipment design of the Chinese army.

"In fact, we can also improve the modification of armor, using this number jù as a reference, we can also make these armor look like other vehicles, such as personnel carriers, as long as they can provide sufficient protection, then the combat capability of these vehicles can also be improved."

Zhao Li didn't shy away from it, there was no way, he really wanted these drawings now.

After all, I handed over these things before, and I just wanted these drawings.

What's more, the most he has in his hands is the information of the US Navy and Air Force, and now he still lacks the information of the Army, which is just here in the Chinese Army. (To be continued......)
