"In terms of advantages, first of all, it has strong protection capabilities, and according to its principle of action, the protection against armor-piercing bullets should be the strongest. It is even possible to completely disable existing armor-piercing shells and RPGs. Qin Zhenhua introduced.

Armor-piercing projectiles, which rely on metal jets, must be detonated in direct contact with the armor of the tank in order to be effective, and now? It was blocked in advance, so even if it rushed through this explosive reaction block, when it came to the back, it was no longer capable of continuing to drill the main armor of the tank.

As for the long-rod armor-piercing projectile, it definitely has an effect, but it is not as effective as the former.

"Second, it is cheap and convenient, especially for us to transform old tanks, which is the most convenient." Qin Zhenhua said: "Its principle is not complicated, the key is the blunt explosive, on the whole, the cost is not particularly high, even, we don't need to install it when we usually train, so it can also save fuel for the tank, after all, if our 59 tank is added with such a layer of protection, it is estimated that it will increase the weight by half a ton." ”

An increase in the weight of half a ton can greatly increase the protection of the tank, so to speak, it is definitely worth it!

"Finally, it's easy to disassemble. Once it fails, it can be quickly and flexibly reinstalled on the battlefield to restore full combat effectiveness again. ”

If it is ordinary armor, if it is taken for a while, it will have to be repaired by technicians to weld the big hole, if it is composite armor, it will be even more troublesome, and this kind of explosive reactive armor is completely simple and flexible, adapting to the needs of the battlefield.

Everyone nodded frequently, obviously agreeing with the benefits that Qin Zhenhua said.

"Of course, if you want to talk about its shortcomings, there are also shortcomings." Qin Zhenhua said: "First of all, this kind of explosive reactive armor, installed piece by piece, cannot be completely distributed, and there must be a gap, so once the enemy's weapon hits the gap, then this kind of explosive reactive armor is ineffective." ”

On the other hand, it is to avoid the detonation of one piece of explosive reactive armor, and cause the continuous reaction of other explosive reactive armor, when the time comes, the entire surface of the tank will explode with a bang, and it will be useless.

Of course, this is just the reason why the current technology is not high enough. If you look at the tanks of later generations, when the 99 tank is developed, you can find that there is no explosive reactive armor like bread cubes on the surface, so is the 99 tank not applying this technology?

Of course not, on the surface of the 99 tank, you can see rivets one by one, these rivets, installed with pieces of explosive armor, are still on its surface, but it has been made into a large encirclement structure, yes, this is the most popular in later generations to add a large encirclement to the tank, into an integral modular reactive armor, such as the most famous Leopard-2 tank, after the improvement and upgrading, it has become this structure, the Russian T-90, is also like this.

In this way, it is also composed of modules, but a buffer structure is arranged between the modules, and an explosion will not affect the surrounding armor, and at the same time, this method also makes the surface of the tank smoother, without dead ends in defense.

Of course, this way can't be done now, this requires continuous improvement for a long time, in fact, now, the explosive reactive armor has just matured, and it is not too widely used, Qin Zhenhua took it out and said, naturally it is also the most forward-looking.

"Secondly, after all, it uses the explosion to protect itself, if its armor is not thick enough, then it cannot be applied, so it can only be used on tanks, not on armored vehicles, of course, this problem is not the most serious, the biggest problem, is that this armor will damage the surroundings when it explodes, that is, once equipped with this armor, when it explodes, it is best not to have infantry around, our infantry must be coordinated, and the infantry must be aware of this."

Infantry and Tan coordination is one of the main tactics of tanks, and now, when the infantry and Tan are coordinated, the infantry cannot get too close, otherwise, once this thing explodes, it is estimated that it will hurt the innocent.

In fact, when the infantry and tanks coordinated, they originally put forward high requirements for the infantry, and the tankmen were on the tank, and their vision was very poor and they could not see the surrounding situation, so it was originally very dangerous, and now a tank that can explode at any time has been added, which is even more dangerous.

Now, Qin Zhenhua has told the advantages and disadvantages of this explosive reactive armor, after Qin Zhenhua finished speaking, he looked at everyone: "In short, advantages and disadvantages coexist, but on the whole, it is a good choice, I think that if we want to improve the protection technology of the tank, the next step should be from this direction." ”

After speaking, Qin Zhenhua looked at everyone, "Now, if you have any questions, you can raise them." ”

Everyone was silent for a while, and then, Huang Lao spoke first: "We have never seen this so-called explosive reactive armor, nor have we seen it in the equipment of various countries, how sure is this?" ”

Huang Lao is practical, this thing, in Qin Zhenhua's mouth, is simply a leap in the technology of an armored soldier, it is a revolution, but now it has not been seen in the equipment of other countries in the world.

Germany, the most developed country, does not have this kind of equipment, the Soviets, it seems that they don't see it, the Americans, they don't use it, the big guys are engaged in composite armor, at this time, Qin Zhenhua suddenly proposed this kind of armor, is it sure?

After all, all kinds of novel theories may not be able to be transformed into combat effectiveness in the end.

"Among them, the main problem is this blunt explosive, as long as this problem is solved, then everything will be solved." Qin Zhenhua said: "And this thing is not what we are good at, we need the cooperation of relevant departments." ”

Therefore, whether you are sure or not, don't ask us, we don't have the bottom, but to say that this kind of research, China should actually be a strong point.

If you are looking for someone from the relevant department, you must grasp it.

"However, as far as I know, there is already a country in the world that has successfully researched it, and moreover, it has been used in their own tanks." Qin Zhenhua said.

"Which country?"

"Israel." Qin Zhenhua said.

This should give everyone the greatest confidence, as soon as the name Israel came out, Huang Lao nodded: "It seems that this thing has the possibility of being realized." ”

Others don't believe it, but there is no doubt that the path chosen by the Israelites must be able to be followed.
