Chapter 334: Black Panther 3, Good Job!
"Fire!" Looking at the tanks of the Germans, accurately entered their field of vision, and, at a distance of only 200 meters, the Polish tanks finally had a chance to destroy the Germans!
The battalion commander, Major Stanislau Glinsky, shouted, and then he stomped the trigger with his foot. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Boom!" The 37-mm tank gun, a burst of fire came out of the muzzle, and the stacks of firewood and grass around it were blown out at once, and at the same time, in the black smoke from the muzzle, 37-mm anti-tank gun shells flew out!
Although the caliber is not large, this is a tungsten core armor-piercing bullet!
Moreover, the penetration depth of the armor-piercing projectile is related to the distance, the closer the range, the greater the depth of the penetration, now, only 200 meters away from the opponent, there is no need to worry about accuracy, and there is no problem with penetration!
In fact, there was no radio station in their tank, and Major Stanislau's shout was not heard by more people, but his cannon sound came out in an instant.
The sound of the cannon is the signal, and the other tanks immediately opened fire!
Fire!
This is indeed tricky enough, right on the side of the Panther tank!
The 37-mm tungsten core armor-piercing projectile, almost instantaneously, flew to the side of the Panther tank, which was already the second time in a few hours since the start of the war that Weitmann's tank was shot!
In the violent impact sound, the tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile quickly drilled into the side of the Panther tank, and its hardness exceeded that of the steel-core armor-piercing bullet, which means that its penetration ability is better!
The pointed head drilled hard, and at the same time, it began to become more and more dull, and the speed became slower and slower.
Why were depleted uranium warheads so popular in later generations? It is because of the self-sharpening effect of depleted uranium alloy, the more drilled, the more sharpened, the sharper! And tungsten alloy, that is definitely the more grinding and dull it gets.
In this way, the tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullet continues to drill into the armor, which is a hard-to-match battle!
At the same time, the armor of nickel alloy steel is also resisting vigorously, resisting! Don't let the other party get in!
The temperature at the point of impact was rising sharply, and the armor-piercing shells were still drilling into the side armor of the tank.
Ahead, how deep is it? The armor-piercing bullet doesn't know, it only knows that as it keeps drilling into it, its head is getting blunt and slow, but it's still steel in front!
It was expecting a sudden loosening in front of itself, and then calmly burrowed in, and inside, stirring up a earth-shattering explosion, but now, it had no strength.
The drill can't move, the speed is already zero! It stopped there, and at this time, it didn't know that it was only a few millimeters away from drilling!
The side armor of the Panther 3 tank is 45 mm thick, which is the same as in history, and due to the large inclination, the actual protection capacity is more, and this thickness is almost as thick as the frontal armor of some light tanks.
However, this is still not enough to withstand advanced anti-tank guns, and it is impossible to achieve the same thickness in all directions for a tank. At the time of design, the Panther tank was required to block 85 mm guns on the front, and only 50 mm anti-tank guns were required on the sides.
And now, the opponent is a 37-mm anti-tank gun, but it is on such a big killer as a tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullet, and as a result, it almost broke through!
On the battlefield, this small difference is the difference between life and death!
Black Panther 3, well done!
For the armored corps, an excellent tank, which allows them to stay in it with peace of mind, is the most confident, frontal, not penetrated, and the sides, not penetrated!
In fact, this is all a matter of a moment, it was a slow motion just now, and the real situation is that after hearing the sound of impact, the process of impact is almost instantaneous.
If it is penetrated, the people in the tank will be finished, and if it is not penetrated, then continue to fight!
For a well-trained crew, in fact, almost as soon as they heard the sound of impact, they immediately began to counterattack!
Hands on the turret rotation button, the hydraulically driven turret, is rapidly turning, at the same time, the driver in front of the driver also instantly judged the direction of the target, pulled the lever, the tank hull, also began to turn towards the target!
All of this can only be done quickly by a well-trained crew, each with its own duties, especially the driver!
In addition to increasing the speed of the muzzle rotation and allowing the tank gun to aim at the target faster, when twisted, the thickest armor of the hull will be directed towards the most threatening target, so that the tank will not be penetrated!
At the same time, the radioman also quickly sounded the alarm on the radio, and beware that there were enemies in the fields on both sides!
Everyone is working closely together, and among them, the most important is the loader!
Now, inside Wittman's tank, the loader is Corporal Gunther Webb, an energetic young man who is just eighteen years old, and at the same time as the turret turns, he pulls out a 75mm armor-piercing shell from the back of the turret.
Just now, although the turret was rotating, there was no ammunition inside the gun chamber, just the crew was on guard.
Why not reload in advance?
For a well-trained tanker, it is not possible to load ammunition before the target is found, because the type of target is different, the type of shells needed is different, the simplest is to hit a hard target, what is needed is armor-piercing shells, and to hit a soft target, to hit ordinary sandbag fortifications, to hit enemy positions, what is needed is grenades.
And for tank guns, as long as the shells are stuffed in, they must be shot out, and it is absolutely impossible to retreat out.
In the current situation, the use of grenades is more written, and at the moment of being attacked, Wittman already shouted loudly: "Armor-piercing shells!" ”
At this time, the hull of the car is moving, the turret is also moving, the people in the turret, the commander and the gun commander, are sitting on the gondola, they rotate with the turret, and at the same time they are quickly searching for targets, and the loader, who is half-bent, he is almost like an acrobat!
In a galloping chariot, bending down to carry shells and loading shells requires superb balancing, and if the balance is not good, you will even be injured in the bumps, not to mention anything else, if you don't hold it steady, the body of the car shakes, and when the cannonball falls, it hits the foot, it is definitely a comminuted fracture.
And now, as if he had practiced the lower plate, Weber did not shake at all, steadily stuffed the armor-piercing shell into the chamber, closed the gun door, and shouted loudly: "The armor-piercing shell is loaded!" ”
From being attacked, to turning, turning the turret, and loading the shells, Wittmann's crew took only five seconds!
It's absolutely fast!
