Chapter 1300: Faster Than Whom

The moment the shell flew out of the muzzle, two versions of the original butt fell, the tail wing extended, and the speed of the warhead began to decrease.

From the outside, the 75mm secondary gun is very small, compared to the 128mm cannon, it is almost like a matchstick, and its double diameter is also smaller, shorter than the 75mm gun equipped on the Black Panther 2, so that the only way to improve its performance is to use new ammunition.

Although the guns are somewhat different, the ammunition is universal, and the 75 mm armor-piercing shells on the current mouse tanks are almost all sub-caliber armor-piercing shells.

This is also the reason why the gunners of the mouse tank prefer to use a 128 mm gun rather than a 75 mm gun, because the cost of such armor-piercing shells is almost twice that of 128 mm blunt-nosed armor-piercing shells.

In the air, the tungsten alloy bullet core, while flying, while decreasing its speed, at the same time, its flight speed is almost not affected in the slightest, in this second, the opposite tank did not make any maneuver at all.

In the maneuvering combat of the tank, the sudden braking is a method that is often used, and experienced shooters will design the amount of advance, and the tank suddenly brakes, and the shells will fly over from the front.

However, in the opposite process, if you stop, you can only rely on rapid acceleration, and before the opponent's shells arrive, you can get out of at least half a car commander and avoid the opponent's blow.

This is also in later generations, often 1200, 1500 horsepower diesel engine, and at the same time the use of advanced hydraulic transmission of the tank, the performance that only has it, in this era, no tank can do it, not even the German Panther 3 tank.

Now that this Stalin tank has stopped, it did not expect such a rapid attack from the Germans!

If the Mouse tank still returned fire with the main gun, it would have taken time to reload, and it was absolutely impossible to fire after a second, and now, the tank, which had almost just stopped, was brought into close contact by a second 75-mm armor-piercing projectile.

The round turret, the good shape of the bullet avoidance, the 75 mm armor-piercing projectile did not ricochet after hitting the turret, and a small hole was steadily pierced and began to drill in.

Compared with the previous armor-piercing projectile, the biggest advantage of this sub-caliber armor-piercing projectile is that the opening is very small, its diameter is small, and the hole that needs to be pierced is small, and less energy will be lost.

Anyway, it does not directly kill the enemy by the impact of the warhead, and there is not much difference in the mass of the warhead.

The Soviets were very proud of the Stalin tank, and in previous battles it even withstood the blows of 88-mm Tiger tank shells, but now, a 75-mm armor-piercing projectile like a steel needle still pierces it.

When the armor-piercing shell burrowed into the turret, it bounced back and forth three or four times, stirring the inside of the turret into a bloody blur, but luckily, it didn't explode.

The front hatch opened, and only the driver limped out of it, one of his feet was cut off, and he thought the tank was about to explode, and crawled to the ground.

Take out one again, and now, there are three tanks left!

Just as Hans was firing at the tank, Commander Kut was already observing the other three, and the fastest of them was already approaching two hundred meters, a dangerous distance!

"Turn fifteen degrees to the right, Stalin tank, two hundred meters away, fire!" Kut shouted loudly.

For a full-fledged tank, at least three crew members are required in the turret.

The commander is responsible for observing the surrounding situation and giving the gun commander command the target, while the gun commander is responsible for quickly operating the tank gun to aim and shoot, and the loader is responsible for loading.

The Rat tank, on the other hand, had two loaders due to the abundance of internal space and the fact that the shells were too heavy.

At this time, the No. 1 loader loaded the 128-mm gun, and the No. 2 loader loaded the 75-mm gun, everything was in order, and just as Hans was turning the turret, the 75-mm tank gun was reloaded again, and the 128-mm shells were still being reloaded semi-automatically.

At a distance of 200 meters, even without sights, you can hit accurately directly by experience, and the German tankers were, and the Soviet tankers were even more so.

When it was discovered that the Mouse tank could not penetrate at a distance of 300 meters, the Soviet tank crew risked death until it was close to a distance of 200 meters, and just when the German tank turret turned and was about to fire at him, the bold commander gave the order to open fire.

They only get one chance.

Yes, it's a chance, in the battle just now, the German tanks showed strong performance, but the loading speed was too fast, the split 122 mm tank gun, the loading shells were too slow, they didn't have a second chance at all, they could only fight once!

"Fire!" On Stalin's tank, with the order of the commander, a fireball flew out of the tank muzzle with black smoke, and the whole tank shook with it.

The distance was terrible, and they did not have time to reload again, so, just after firing, the Stalin tank did not retreat, on the contrary, the tankman drove the tank and continued to rumble forward.

Run backwards, you can't outrun the opponent's shells, run forward, maybe you can find a new fighter, before destroying the opponent, you can only move forward, not backward!

In World War II, Soviet tankmen were the most tragic and brave.

They repeatedly drove tanks with inferior performance to the Germans, such as the T-34 to besiege the Tiger tank, and they relied on the tactics of the sea of tanks, and the sacrifice of some tanks paved the way for the other part to go around the opponent's rear and attack.

Now, they still think like this, attracting the firepower of the other side, they can create opportunities for the tanks next to them.

It all depended on how fast the tanks of the Germans fired, and in this respect the Germans have always been on the side of miracles.

"Boom!" Almost at the same time as the Stalin tank fired, the rat tank also fired, and the shells of both sides were flying at each other's speed.

If you look closely, you can see that the smoke of the Rat tank does not come out of the main gun, but from the secondary gun!

In contrast, 75 mm shells were faster to load, and when it was found that 75 mm armor-piercing shells could penetrate the opponent, Hans no longer wasted 128 mm shell reloading time.

The 122-mm shells flew first, after all, it was the Soviets who fired a few tenths of a second earlier.

The shell did not hit the turret, but on the underside hull of the rat tank!

Soviet tankmen, of course, did not only know how to rush forward, they also had tactics, and when they found that the 122-mm tank gun could not destroy the opponent's turret, they simply greeted the opponent's hull!
