Chapter 584: Good Things Sold Out
"What? Our tanks, able to block the 120-mm rifled guns of the Chieftain tanks? When he heard the news, even Qin Zhenhua was confused, and there was only one thought in his mind: How is this possible?
The 69-2 foreign trade tank, at the time of research and development, focused on improving the comfort of the crew, adapting to the desert environment, and the fire control equipment was updated, but the protection system was almost never touched.
If such a tank is capable of blocking the shot of 120-mm armor-piercing shells, it is absolutely impossible.
"yes, that's impossible, shall we clarify?" Zhao Guodong asked Qin Zhenhua.
The record of their own 69-2 tanks, under the hype of the country, is now famous, and this record has also become a classic record in tank battles, and those tankers have become household names in the opponent's country.
The story about them is more and more evil, piggybacking, this 69 tank, has also been mythologized.
Now, listening to Zhao Guodong's words, Qin Zhenhua shook his head: "Of course not, we have never publicized it like this, it was the other party's propaganda, but, I think, what they publicized is not wrong." ”
Nothing wrong?
"Look here." Qin Zhenhua held a photo, which was sent from the country, the photo was very clear, Qin Zhenhua pointed to the hole above, and said: "I saw the hole smashed out, there are some white traces, if I guess correctly, they were not a real armor-piercing bullet, but a trainer bullet." ”
"Poof." Zhao Guodong, who was drinking water, only felt a mouthful of water squirting out of his mouth, with incredibleness in his eyes, what did you say?
The 120 mm rifled gun is a masterpiece of the British Huang Family Arsenal, this tank gun is equipped on many tanks, when the mainstream of the West is still a 105 mm tank gun, the British have already carried the 120 mm cannon barrel.
They not only have this proud tank gun, but also for this tank gun, developed a lot of shells, for example, only export armor-piercing shells, there are many models, the main force is the L15A4 tracer shell-piercing shell-piercing projectile, and for training, at the same time they are also equipped with L20A1 tracer shelling training bullet.
As a trainer projectile, it has the same trajectory as an armor-piercing projectile, so that it can be used for aiming exercises, but the projectile body is not a real hard core, but is made of a relatively brittle material.
Therefore, if this kind of trainer bullet flies out and hits the tank, there will be such a small and insignificant crater left.
"Then the opponent is too weak, right? Are they on the battlefield, with trainer bullets? Zhao Guodong asked.
No one will know, Qin Zhenhua can only make such a speculation, it was indeed hit, but it was not destroyed, looking at the photos of that place, it is almost certain, it is the coach bullet!
"God knows, it is said that their tankmen are all newly recruited, and they probably have little experience." Qin Zhenhua said.
His speculation is really right, at this time, Habibullah, who has been killed in battle, if he knew that he died at the hands of the loader, if the loader was loaded with real armor-piercing bullets at that time, they would have killed their opponents, I don't know what kind of mood they would have.
Tankmen, that is a kind of technical arms, without a few years of training, it is impossible to play, just by passion, it is impossible to win the future war.
"Lao Zhao, are you ready?" At this moment, the outside door was pushed open, and Luo Ronggen walked in and said to Zhao Guodong: "Huang Lao, they will be here soon." ”
This news was transmitted back to China, and the commanders of the tank units were also full of confusion, the tanks produced by a machine factory actually had such strong combat effectiveness?
Although the country has been preparing for war, but the real battle is only the year before last, and the duel between tanks and tanks has hardly appeared, so they paid considerable attention to this battle, and this brilliant example immediately attracted their attention, so they came over, seeing is believing.
"Well, ready, let's go, go to the shooting range to pick up the leaders for a visit." Zhao Guodong said.
In the shooting range of a machine factory, it was very lively, and when Huang Lao got out of the car, he looked at the tanks being tested, with appreciation in his eyes.
"Lao Zhao, you are a machine factory, and you are not righteous." Huang Lao said to Zhao Guodong: "Good things, sent abroad, for our own use, but second-rate products, you say, isn't it?" ”
Huang Lao had a smile on his face, obviously not serious, and Zhao Guodong also had a smile: "Of course, if the army also gives us one million, the quality is just right." ”
After speaking, he hurriedly added: "For the specific situation, let Zhenhua introduce it to you." ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, I agree with the words of our Director Zhao." Qin Zhenhua also smiled: "In the past few years, the army has not purchased a new type of 100 mm tank gun shells, so the troops are using second-rate goods, which is completely in line with the actual situation, our factory, has developed two new armor-piercing shells specially for 100 mm rifled guns, called the first phase of the bullet and the second phase of the shell, I will explain to the leaders, two pillars, carry two shells over." ”
The military budget of the troops is tight, over the years, 59 tanks have been continuously produced, a huge number, and now, the troops also have a large number of shells for 100-mm rifled guns, so, at this time, how can the troops continue to purchase shells for 100-mm rifled guns?
After the introduction of 105 mm tank guns, the troops are already planning to be the main force, and the current 59 tanks are going to be replaced, not to mention the newly developed 79 tanks and 80 tanks, so even if the troops procure, they will purchase 105 mm shells as the main reserve, and it is simply impossible to repeat the purchase of 100 mm rifled gun shells, and they are all going to be eliminated.
Therefore, after the development of these two new types of armor-piercing bullets, they are mainly for foreign trade, that is, armor-piercing bullets for foreign trade. The troops did not take a fancy to it, and it should be, and it is only now that the troops are interested.
Wang Erzhu took a worker and quickly brought the two shells over, the yellow-orange shells stood on the edge of the shooting range, and it can be seen that the two shells have similarities and differences.
The same place is that the shape of the two armor-piercing bullets is the same, the cartridge below, the saddle-shaped butt above, and the pointed bullet head is exposed outside, giving people a feeling that the sharp corners are only exposed by a small lotus, and the difference is that the length of the core of the two armor-piercing bullets is slightly different.
