Since getting the US tank, the Japanese top brass has lamented the strength of the tank, but it has also noticed the shortcomings of the tank, especially in the past when using the US tank training, even the most elite tank drivers, under strict operating procedures, with the most standard movements, do not make too many mistakes, general training, more than 10 hours, the engine will overheat and lose power, many times, even six or seven hours will have problems.

At first, Japan thought that there was a problem with their training methods, and even because of this, they were angry with the surrendered US troops, and they killed a few, but everyone said so, especially after severely torturing at least 10 or more US tankmen, and finally the answer was the same under the premise that they found that it was not their training methods that were problematic, but the inherent problems of US tanks, and their reliability was insufficient. You have to stop, or you're prone to problems.

Under the premise of racing against time and running thousands of miles, there is no way to make the tank move for more than 8 hours, let alone in training, with the high intensity of training, it is already good to be able to hold on for 8 hours. Under normal circumstances, lower the temperature and wait for four or five hours before it can be reused, otherwise it is easy to have problems, which may cause permanent damage to the engine, which is the experience that Japan has summed up in the American tank before.

In the case of a small number of tanks, the drivers of the entire Japan were divided into several shifts, almost 24 hours a day, and there were no problems with these tanks, which proved the reliability of Chinese tanks from the side.

The reason for such a difference is very simple, one is a military product, the other is a civilian product, this is the difference between them, and the technical indicators of the two are completely different.

After strict processing, every aspect has reached the limit of the engine, even if it is 320 horsepower, his standard is the same as the strongest engine of 850 horsepower, his primary purpose is reliability, not cheap, economical, must ensure that in the harsh environment, still ensure a certain operation, this is the quality of military products.

One is civilian products, the same requirements for quality, this quality index, and the previous military products are completely different, civilian products represent cheap, performance and cost performance is the most noteworthy thing, in consideration of the cost performance of the premise, some performance indicators can slow down a little, even from the price, the number of horsepower doubled under the premise, if placed on civilian products, the price rose by up to 50%, but in the military products, 320 horsepower engine, his factory cost, is 4 times higher than 180 horsepower.

These Japanese don't know, they feel very amazing, why China's engine unit has such a role, but they don't know that this is an entry-level thing for Chinese military equipment, even if it is an engine for military jeeps and trucks, it is better than the civilian products obtained by the Americans.

However, this has also made the Japanese military realize that the quality of Chinese products is strong, and for a long time, in the minds of Japan, Chinese products are synonymous with high quality, and to a certain extent, it has also improved the quality and popularity of Chinese brands.

The modified tank, in the weight reduced to about 16 tons, but the power has doubled, not only the speed soared, but also the overall stability rose to a level, the reason for such an excellent effect is that the United States for the performance of the tank, had to squeeze the limit of the engine, 180 horsepower engine, pull 25 tons of tank, or tracked, not wheeled, so that most of the power, are placed on the confrontation with the ground friction.

Even in the era of large trucks in later generations, most of the power of semi-trailers is between 200 and 300, but when they pull more than 30 tons, or even 40 tons, it is also overloaded in overload, and many times, it seems that the power is insufficient, and it is still under the premise of tires, driving on high-grade highways.

The tank is more in the irregular battlefield environment, so that the power loss is more, between stationary and starting, which requires a huge amount of kinetic energy, and the engine itself is insufficient power, in such continuous loss, the cost is huge, which is also one of the reasons why American tanks are prone to problems, before China did not improve the power, some laboratories forcibly made those large-tonnage tanks, not only did not make the combat effectiveness soar, but the cost was huge, and it was prone to mechanical loss, so, There is a coefficient relationship between horsepower and weight in China, and only within the range of the coefficient can it be regarded as a normal range.

Previously, when it got part of the data of the US tank, China knew that the horsepower was too small to push the tank, which was also a problem of greater mechanical damage, and this point, if the horsepower was not increased, even if China modified it, it would only make the situation a little better, and could not be completely eradicated, so they came up with a more mature power unit of armored vehicles. Now the horsepower has doubled, the weight has been reduced by a third, basically in the power range, no longer after the Maverick pulls the car, the engine will always be in the allowable range, to a certain extent, it will reduce the mechanical wear to the lowest degree, the power has always been in the permitted range, which will not have too high wear and tear for the fatigue of the entire power, which is also the fundamental reason why this tank can be used for a long time.

This point, Japan did not know, even a long time later, could not figure it out, almost this Chinese modified tank as a standard, until a long time later, Japan imitated the Chinese power crew successfully, there is armor, after accumulating more than ten years of experience, this is changed, before that, has been than the gourd painting scoop copy.

These have been reported enough before, Kawasaki Meijing has been reported enough, it is precisely because of the excellent performance of the Chinese modified tank, that he finally decided, go to the modification project, keep an eye on the progress of the modification factory, now the modification factory is on the right track, the Sakura plan must be implemented within a month, he must look at the progress of the training here, he has seen too many paper things, he prefers to see the real thing.

Kawasaki Meijing arrived at the training ground in the early morning, but the sky has not completely lit up, but on the training ground, there has been a roar, but when I approached, I felt that the roar was not strong The engine equipped by the US military was civilian, and the US military did not increase the airtightness and reduce the sound, so the sound was very loud, for the United States, it doesn't matter, the armor has just appeared, such a roaring sound, more representative of the momentum of the US armored forces.

However, for China, the concealment of the armored forces is also an important aspect, unless necessary, otherwise, the sound is not suitable for too loud, especially for armored vehicles used in the battlefield breakthrough, even more so, although this power unit, his noise is relatively low, about a little more than a third of the US military.

At present, the basic driving learning has come to an end, the current tank training, basically is a small-scale grouping, they form different squads, tactical drills, Kawasaki Meijing has only listened to the Chinese side before, now I really see it, I feel the momentum, compared to the US military team cooperation, now the armored division seems to be more easy to control, and the control performance is also very good.

The arrival of Kawasaki Meijing did not inform anyone, but his appearance, for the officers below, is familiar, when a training ground star officer, found Kawasaki Meijing, and came up to salute, Kawasaki Meijing knew that his quiet observation should be over, he just wanted to come over to see the progress of tank training, and did not think about catching a few typical, or a micro-service private visit, after returning the salute with the star officer, he instructed him to call several division commanders.

The commander of the 3 divisions and the commander of the 1 brigade came very quickly, almost at the time when Kawasaki Meijing had just had a cup of tea in the central combat camp, they arrived one after another, obviously, they were nearby, and basically in the battle, or the state of work, for their speed, Kawasaki Meijing was still relatively satisfied, and they couldn't stop praising them.

I met the 3 division commanders and brigade commanders below, they are all relatively young officers, only young officers, can understand the strength of the armor, they have all been notified by Kawasaki Meijing, knowing that he is coming today, and they have also prepared a report, mainly about the training situation, to be honest, they are also full of admiration for the modification of the Chinese side, because the previous American tanks, the operation is extremely complicated, they are also based on the teaching of a captured tanker, only to know, whether it is acceleration, Or slow down, it takes several steps to cooperate, a little bit of cooperation is not good, it will make the tank malfunction, the light will be stalled, the heavy engine will lie down, which is also the fundamental reason why they have trained for so long before, and there are few very skilled drivers.

Now, replaced with a Chinese tank, the effect is much better, at the beginning, they thought it would be more complicated than the American tank, because according to Japan's understanding and China's introduction, this tank will be more powerful than the United States, the more powerful it will be, the more complicated, but in front of China's modification, they are convinced, more outstanding performance, but it is not difficult to operate, it is easy to get started, not to mention, the combat effectiveness is particularly strong.
