Chapter 272: Infrared Imaging Night Vision

Although the personnel are all reorganized, the original spirit still exists, and the 9th Division is invincible!

Moreover, the tanks they drove also gave them full confidence, they were one of the first units to replace the M1 tanks imported from the United States, although they were only equipped with a regiment, in the training reflected the performance of their own self-made Type 74 tanks to be excellent, fast start, good acceleration, accurate firepower, and the night vision device used now is also the most advanced infrared imaging night vision device!

There is no longer a need for infrared headlights to illuminate, these tanks are killers in the dark! They will definitely be able to rush to the front line, will be able to tear through the defenses of the armored forces of the Soviets, break through!

Although this kind of tank is quite fuel-intensive, however, its own Type 74 tank, using a two-stroke engine, the fuel consumption rate is also quite large, so now the island country does not feel that these tanks have any weaknesses, and the armor protection ability is not comparable to those tanks of their own.

Tonight, I'm going to attack Kushiro! Tomorrow during the day, fight a day of street fighting in Kushiro and then end the battle! The commanders of the best Soviets, especially the guy named Andrei, were also besieged in Kushiro!

With such a belief, the M1 tank galloped across the field, although the land planted by the peasants was crushed below, they couldn't manage so much, they couldn't attack from the main road, right?

The attack of the entire army will definitely move, but will the Soviets be able to defend against it? Just wait to die!

"Attention, in five minutes we are about to storm the first line of defense of the Soviets!" Sakuragi shouted over the radio.

His tanks, rushing to the front line, he was going to personally command his own tank regiment. Rush through the lines of the Soviets!

"Armor-piercing shells, ready." Sakuragi continued to give orders to his crew.

Once the tank shell is stuffed into the chamber. It needs to be launched, and it is quite dangerous to re-unechamber. So. Tank commanders usually give the order to fire shells only after they have visually spotted the target.

However, there is no need to hesitate too much now, the first round will definitely be faced by the tanks of the Soviets! In order to greet the other party with his own armor-piercing bullet as soon as possible, Sakuragi Teng couldn't wait to give the order.

"Yes." In the bumpy tank, the loader pulled out an American-imported armor-piercing shell from the tail compartment in the back, and thumped it into the chamber.

Reload shells. It's not just a hard job, it's a technical job, after all, loading a cannonball in a bumpy tank is like wearing an embroidery needle on a fishing boat in the wind and waves.

"Armor-piercing rounds reloaded." The loader shouted.

"Attention, the target is five kilometers away, about to make contact, attention, the target is five kilometers away!" Sakuragi shouted excitedly.

The role of infrared imaging night vision devices. It is well reflected that now, the main night vision device of the tank is still the infrared headlights, which emit infrared rays that are invisible to the naked eye. After shining on other objects, it is reflected back and received by the receiving device. You can see it.

However, the infrared headlights are used to shine a flashlight in the dark. Tell each other clearly that you're coming! While spotting the enemy. It also exposes its own targets and is easy to be attacked at the same time.

Therefore, the Western world, led by the United States, has never stopped the study of night vision devices, in the early 70s, it was the first to develop a mature low-light night vision device, in starlight conditions, this tiny light can be magnified to find the target, this night vision device can reach more than 1000m of the tank distance. Unfortunately, the principle of this device is to magnify, and if it is pitch black and there is no light, and it cannot be magnified, it will lose its effect.

And any object, as long as it is above absolute zero, as long as there is temperature, it must release infrared rays outward, and if there is a device to receive infrared rays, it can be used to make night vision devices! According to this principle, the first generation of passive thermal imagers, historically, began to be massively equipped on tanks such as the M60A3, M1 and Leopard 2 in the early eighties.

Now, the threat of Soviet armored forces has brought this infrared thermal imager into service with the M1 tank in advance, using mercury cadmium telluride detection material, which has a range of more than 1,200 meters on the tank.

And now, the target is with the infrared headlights on! Although the silhouette of the Soviets' tank is not yet visible, it is also possible to find out the location of the Soviets according to the instructions of the infrared headlights!

At this time, although the Soviets may have realized that there was a situation and may have known that they had launched an attack, they were helpless! As long as they can't see themselves clearly in the dark, they won't be able to aim accurately! And if they can't aim accurately, it means that they will only be beaten and will not fight back!

"Rush, keep rushing, ready to fire!" Sakuragi shouted.

As a tank commander, he was now carried away by the impending victory, and if he sobered up a little more and ordered his armored forces to turn at once, go around to the Soviets' flank, and attack from there, it would be most appropriate, it would be easy to take the Soviets to their stomachs. In any tank, the main armor in front is always the thickest, and the armor on the sides is the least hit.

Unfortunately, he didn't, he thought that his tank group charge would be able to easily destroy the other side.

Moreover, there are only dozens of M1 tanks in his hand, and the Type 74 that follows behind him still uses infrared headlights, if he goes around to the side at this time, then those Type 74 tanks behind him will be completely exposed.

Rush, keep rushing! The M1 tank holds the barrel high, the two-way stabilizer plays a huge role, the tank hull sways back and forth, and the muzzle is pointed, but it has not changed!

Closer, closer, at a distance of fifteen hundred meters, Sakuragi Teng gave the order to shoot.

"Fire!"

Although the outline of the Soviets' tank could not be seen clearly at this time, those infrared headlights were already the best target designation points! The backward ammunition of the previous Type 74 tank could not penetrate the tanks of the Soviets, but now it is different, the armor-piercing shells imported from the United States penetrate nearly half deeper, which is enough to tear apart the main armor of the Soviets' tanks!

"Boom!" As the gun commander pressed the firing switch, the M1 tank let out a huge roar, a brilliant fireball appeared in the muzzle, and an M833 armor-piercing projectile, dragged with a tracer, flew out.

This is the most advanced ammunition in the United States, using depleted uranium as a raw material, which will surely succeed in tearing the armor of the Soviets' tanks! In the infrared imaging sight, Sakuragi waited for a tank to detonate and ignite a fire in the distance, and the scene must be spectacular! (To be continued.) )
