Chapter 174: Showing Technique
The tank is always walking on two paved roads, these are the two tracks, it is precisely because of the existence of the tracks, so that the tank is like walking on the ground, at the same time, it is precisely because of these two tracks, so that it is much more resistant than the wheeled vehicle, so the speed of the tank, the ability to climb the slope, is far weaker than the wheeled vehicle under the same working conditions.
Take the current Chivoltan as an example, with a 720-horsepower engine and a 56-ton dead weight, if it is a wheeled vehicle, it can definitely soar to a speed of 100 kilometers, and if you climb a hill, a slope of 60 degrees can definitely rush up.
Tanks will not work.
Now, when the tank track begins to slope up, tilt up, the engine is instantly strained, at this time, the traction force not only has to overcome the resistance, but also to overcome more gravity components, the result of the resistance becomes larger, that is, the engine is struggling, the fuel injected inside, part of the fuel injected into it, because of incomplete combustion, began to gurgle to the outside of black smoke, it seems to be exerting force, in fact, its power at this time, is definitely not as abundant as when it is completely burned.
This is what you see now, the body of the Chivoltan is tilted, the vehicle is crawling towards such a large slope, the tracks are still turning, but the speed is obviously getting lower and lower, the barrel is poked up, towards the sky, and then, like that, it rushes up.
If you start at the bottom of the slope, it is absolutely not possible, after the body is fully tilted, it will be stalled because of lack of power, and now, because of the high-speed rush, by speed, it has successfully rushed up!
Fortunately, there was no fool of himself, and Robert secretly thought in his heart that even if his own armored troops operated it, it might not be able to guarantee one-time success.
Wait a minute!
Robert reacted again, this seemingly reckless move, in fact, people are showing off, these expeditions from the East, there is definitely enough technical level, people operate their own tanks for the first time, they can drive so slippery, and they can make such a reckless and successful rampage action, the gear and throttle are so tacitly coordinated, people have a few brushes.
Their tanks are equipped with a Merlitt-Wilson differential steering system and an electro-hydraulic transmission control unit with six forward gears and two reverse gears. However, it does not belong to the fully automatic transmission, using a foot pedal to operate the electric switch to change gears, although there is no clutch, but the gear and throttle, or have to work closely together.
The first time the other party can operate so skillfully, how did he do it?
When he thought of this joint, his eyes changed, and the idea of arrogance and superiority was left behind, these guests, it's not simple!
However, up to now, it only shows that the driver is highly skilled, and since the other party has gone up to a car group, he has just asked for a test gun, which is naturally to show their full technical level.
Sure enough, just after the dash, the opponent immediately stepped on the brakes, and the tank began to go downhill!
At this time, it is necessary to pay considerable attention to the fact that it is not uncommon for tanks to be damaged due to the rude driving of tank crews, and the most speechless of them is the situation of poking the barrel on the ground and bending it when it is going downhill.
When going uphill, the barrel is high towards the sky, and when going downhill, it is naturally pierced to the ground, especially in order to get strong firepower, they use a 120 mm tank gun with a caliber of 55 times!
The length of the barrel of a tank gun is expressed in terms of multiple diameters, that is, how many times the length of the barrel is the caliber, and the usual tank guns are more than forty times the caliber, or about 100 mm, so that it is four or five meters long, and their current one, multiplied by 55 times 120 mm, that is 6.6 meters! The longer the barrel, the easier it is to pierce into the ground.
If you want to poke it, do you want them to compensate? Although it was caused by them, but after all, they agreed to it, and it was to make the other party make a fool of themselves, who knew that they would drive so smoothly and so irritable.
This is completely the style of Lao Maozi!
It's useless to worry, it's impossible to stop it now, I saw that the tank was going downhill, and the turret swished all of a sudden, and it turned over!
The barrel is in front, it may pierce the ground, and now, the barrel has been rotated ninety degrees, and it has turned to the side at once, so that there is no risk of poking the ground, it seems that although the other party is rough, it is not that he doesn't understand anything, and he knows to turn the turret in advance to avoid it.
Wait a minute!
At this moment, he suddenly saw the entire hull of the tank, and shook it from side to side, this shaking was very slight, but, in the eyes of professionals, they all knew what was happening.
When the tank falls, it will definitely bring shock, at this time, the body should be shaking back and forth, but now, it is shaking left and right, this is only one possibility, that is, the tank at this time, is bringing a lateral recoil!
At this time, the new turret with additional Chobham armor protection is perpendicular to the hull, so the recoil is naturally horizontal to the hull.
Just as they were watching, surprised, and incredulous, a fireball erupted from the muzzle of the cannon.
The firing of the tank gun is quite spectacular, this is a high-pressure gun, the charge is very large, the red-hot propellant reaches the muzzle after pushing the warhead out, and a large amount of participating energy is released.
A large fireball came out of the muzzle, and the fireball rose rapidly, and black smoke began to appear above the fireball, enveloping most of the tank, and then, a second or two later, they heard the deafening sound in their ears.
"Boom!"
"Playing the piano indiscriminately, this is clearly playing the piano indiscriminately!" When they saw the tank firing, someone in the inspection group finally couldn't help it and whispered: "What are they doing?" Give us a foreign look? ”
"That's right, it's impossible to hit it if you fire it while you're on the move, or if you fire it from the side, or if you fire it while the body is falling! A cannonball is a lot of money, in addition to being a waste, it also shows our foreign appearance! ”
The firing of this tank brought too much shock to the inspection team, for ordinary people, they have only one reaction intuitively, and it is impossible to hit at all!
Just look at the domestic tank shooting, the tank rumbles, drives out for a while, creaks and stops, stops, aims, shoots, and after shooting, it rumbles again.
Professionally speaking, if the target is fixed, this is called static to static shooting, if the target is moving, this is static shooting, in short, the tank on your side is firing in a stationary position, mainly to estimate the opponent's movement.
Now, this Chivoltan is firing in the middle of the march, this is the movement of the static, this is absolutely impossible to hit! How much luck does that have to be?
