Historically, it was because of Hitler's love for heavy artillery that this kind of thing was finally made, Hitler liked thick and big things, such as the naval guns of warships, and he even wanted 800 mm, and the Dora cannon on land was also so perverted.

The Rat tank is also one of them, this tank has a dead weight of up to 188 tons and armor 240 mm thick, making it invincible.

Unfortunately, the Army Weapons Directorate was not interested in this.

In other words, they are not interested in anything that weighs more than a hundred tons, this kind of thing, no kind of bridge can withstand it, and it is almost a serious challenge to drive all the way to the war zone.

It's a chicken-like existence.

From this point of view, this is true, but Ciric still pushes the project forward.

Now that the Reich has sufficient funds to integrate the industries of the whole of Europe, especially the process of economic integration of the whole of Europe and the formation of the European Central Bank, the German purse has long been bulging.

Therefore, there is no problem in conducting some pre-research, such as the mouse tank, which is actually a pre-research project in Ciric's plan, and even, this project will not be put into actual combat until the end of the war.

Looking at the experience of later generations, the use of composite armor and advanced tail stabilized shelling armor-piercing shells is the right way for the development of tanks.

At the same time, this is a two-handed preparation, and if these technologies cannot be matured, at least simply by increasing the weight, there is no problem.

Add more water to the surface, add more water to the surface, Germany has a strong enough chassis.

As long as Germany has the technology, it can be produced at any time when it is needed, and this is the biggest advantage.

The same is true in history, after the stumbling on the Tiger tank, when it developed to the Rat tank, the electric transmission had matured, but unfortunately, Germany was also finished.

This kind of tank has no chance to appear on the battlefield.

Now, it's different.

The super-heavy Mouse tank appeared on the battlefield in this way, in fact, until now, it is still an experimental object, which was pulled directly from the proving ground of Porsche.

There are six members inside the tank, one of whom is a part-time engineer, who will quickly eliminate any mechanical problems in the tank.

At the same time, their transportation this time was also very smooth, there are many rivers in the UK, so, after transporting from Porsche to the shore, after loading, they almost all went to the vicinity of London, before unloading the ship and going ashore, last night, when they arrived here, they immediately carried out some overhaul, and after making sure that the whole machine was kept in normal condition, they started at dawn.

The gasoline engine is rotating at high speed, and the continuous power is transmitted to the motor behind it through the cable, and the driving wheels rotate slowly, driving the track more than one meter wide and moving forward.

From the outside, it looks like a cruiser on the ground, and the momentum is huge!

Inside the tank, the commander Sergeant Rip had a stern face.

He wasn't really a soldier, or rather, he used to be a soldier, and after two years of service in the armoured division, he joined Porsche to do the mundane and hard work of testing cars.

Sergeant was also his rank when he was in the army, and in the company, everyone called him that.

After all, this is just a prototype car, and it is not equipped with troops, so the operators are also the company's test drivers, but almost all of them have experience in front-line operations.

Now, back on the battlefield, there's a sense of excitement in everyone.

"Boom!" There was another explosion, and the wheels in front managed to detonate a mine again.

Any weapon has weaknesses, even the current rat type, it will not be destroyed by any anti-tank weapons, it still has weaknesses, once the track is blown up, it will completely stop.

Ahead, the driver Kut, was even more cautious, for him, how to correctly pass the anti-tank trench in front was his biggest challenge.

It can be said that his tank is three meters high, and even if it falls, it will be fine, and the opponent's anti-tank trench is only two meters deep, but he does not want that kind of humiliating thing to happen.

Now, the troops behind are all looking at their own, driving such a big guy who pulls the wind, if he falls, what a shame!

The whole position was temporarily calm, and almost everyone, both German and British, was watching this behemoth.

During World War I, when the British tank appeared on the battlefield, I am afraid that this was the scene, right?

The engine was rumbling, the tracks were still moving forward, and finally, the tracks in front had reached the anti-tank trench.

Although this tank is very heavy, now it weighs more than 150 tons, which is not much smaller than the historical 188 tons, but the width of the tracks has reached 1.1 meters! In this case, the ground pressure of the tracks is no greater than that of the Panther tank.

Under the immersion of the river, the edges of the anti-tank trenches were already somewhat soft, and under the crushing of the tracks, the earth fell down in a torrent and fell into the river.

Then, the front body of the car is suspended in the air.

The tracks were still moving, and the people on both sides were stunned.

Anti-tank trenches, what are they for? Of course, it is to hinder the passage of the opponent, generally speaking, as long as the width is more than half of the opponent's tank, the opponent will not be able to pass, and will definitely have to fall!

The German tank is only six meters long, so the British side dug a four-meter-wide anti-tank trench, which is said to be enough, and if the other side drives it directly, it will definitely fall.

If the other side wants to fill this trench, but there is a lack of things, and the soil is piled up on their side! And there's water down there!

As a result, the Germans drove out such a big guy, this big guy, too long, and drove it directly, just like stepping over a small ditch!

In the eyes of everyone, this huge tank, with the tracks in front of it, was suspended in the air, and then the front end of the hull came into contact with the opposite side, and the tracks grabbed the land, eating hard, and crushed up.

At this time, the rear body has come to the end, and it has once again become a situation where the back is suspended and the front is crushed.

In front of it was a dirt slope, which was piled up by the excavated soil, and now, the huge rat tank, the engine in the tail emitted puffs of black smoke, and the tracks directly crushed it!

The front end of the hull was raised high, and the tracks behind it were immersed in the river, and just like that, the tank was still roaring and moving, and it had successfully crossed the anti-tank trench!

And at this moment, the British commander on the opposite side shouted: "Fire, fire!" ”
