Chapter 925: The Unlucky One

And now, the United States has not developed a new depleted uranium armor-piercing projectile, they use the same DM33 armor-piercing projectile as the Germans. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The response of the American army was also very fast, in fact, when the Soviets opened fire on their tanks, their side had already begun to prepare for shooting, and when the Soviets' tank shells fell on their side, the American M1 tanks also threw shells over!

The use of glass fiber cast thermal sheath, to keep the temperature of the barrel constant, the German process of excellence, so that the accuracy of this tank gun is also quite high, now, although the distance between the two sides is still two thousand meters, the tank gun bombardment, has begun!

At the same time, the M1's sighting system is also very advanced, and they are confident that they can hit the opponent from a distance of two thousand meters!

Now, I only hope that this German-designed 120mm tank gun shell can destroy the opponent, so that the morale of your side will be greatly boosted!

With their expectations, with a loud bang, a flame flickered at the muzzle, and a shiny piercing rod threw away the 3-petal aluminum butt and flew forward!

The new 120 mm tank gun, with its high chamber pressure, allows this gun to eject the muzzle at a speed of up to 1500 meters per second! The distance of these two kilometers will take more than an hour to fly!

At the same time, after discovering the salvo shells on the opposite side, the attacking T-72 troops came to a big stop in unison!

Continue to drive at a constant speed? How arrogant does that have to be a commander to do it?

The T-72 tank in the gallop made a squeaking sound, the body leaned forward, and the sudden braking in motion was also a challenge to the tank.

Braking is a common tactic used by tank troops, after all, compared with rapid acceleration, braking is easier to change the movement state of the tank, so many of those whistling shells hit the open space in front of the tank.

In dynamic and static shooting, the tank's computer has already calculated the advance amount and calculated according to the constant speed of the target, so when the target suddenly changes speed, it will lose its accuracy.

However, there were also shells, which were supposed to be aimed at the turret, and after the target braked sharply, they hit the main armor in front of them hard!

The slender tungsten alloy bullet core drilled into the main armor, and the first thing it touched was the explosive armor! When the explosive armor consumes some of the energy, this bullet core continues to drill inside!

Get inside the armor and keep drilling in, drill in! Finally, it won't drill!

In fact, it has already penetrated the middle layer, and it is still a few centimeters away from the main armor, and it is already about to penetrate it!

It's a pity that it's still blocked!

This 120-mm shell, at a distance of 2000 meters, could penetrate 560 mm of homogeneous steel plates, which was just within the resistance of Soviet tanks.

For example, explosive reactive armor has better protection against shaped warheads, so it can prevent metal jets that penetrate stationary homogeneous armor with a thickness of 800 mm, but armor-piercing shells that are resistant to hard collisions can only protect against about 600 mm.

The T-72, after all, is still a low-grade cargo in Soviet tank equipment, and the level of protection cannot catch up with the more advanced T-80.

Now, though, that's enough!

Of course, there are unlucky ones.

A slender tungsten alloy piercing rod was pierced into the main armor of a T-72 tank, and without detonating the reactive armor, it pierced directly.

The reactive armor is blocky and bolted, and for various reasons, it is impossible to cover all the positions with the reactive armor, and as a result, this armor-piercing projectile just penetrated through the gap between the two pieces of reactive armor!

Without the blocking of reactive armor, the tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile immediately penetrated the main armor! When the debris generated during the penetration process hit the ammunition of the turntable-type automatic loader, in an instant, a powerful explosive force lifted the turret more than a meter high!

Black smoke, blazing flames, enveloped the hapless tank, and the turret fell heavily from the sky and flipped aside, black smoke still emitting, as if telling something.

Fighting requires sacrifice, and for the sake of freedom, this sacrifice is worth it!

There is an effect, there is an effect! Montel looked at the destruction of the tank on the opposite side, and instantly became excited, other shells flew away, this one hit the opponent's shell, and destroyed the opponent!

In that case, what are you afraid of? Keep shooting!

And just after discovering that a tank had been destroyed on their side, the East German armored troops were completely angry.

"Shoot missiles, beat the Americans for me!" Carl shouted over the radio.

Artillery missiles! Compared with the Western world, there is also a unique weapon in the equipment of the Soviet Union, which is artillery missiles!

Originally, the use of depleted uranium armor-piercing shells at this distance was sufficient, but the destruction of their own tanks completely angered the East German armored troops, so they did not hesitate to sacrifice a large killing weapon.

In the last island war, the Soviet Union already had a mature artillery-launched missile, that is, the 9M112 artillery-launched missile, with a theoretical hit rate of 80% at a maximum range of 4,000 meters, and a vertical static armor-piercing power of 600 mm.

And now, a few years have passed, the Soviet Union has developed a newer artillery missile, that is, the 9M119 Reed Flute, compared with the original 9M112, the biggest change is that the original radio command guidance, changed to semi-active laser guidance, greatly improving reliability.

The maximum range is still 4,000 meters, and at the same time, a new warhead has been improved, and the rocket engine has been creatively fronted before the main charge. From the tip of the bullet downwards, the order is: the first stage of the hollow armor-piercing drug cover, the rocket engine, and the second stage of the hollow armor-piercing drug type cover (main charge). In this way, for the first time, a tandem hollow armor-piercing charge was realized on an artillery-launched missile with limited length, so that the artillery-launched missile had the ability to penetrate reactive armor!

The vertical static armor-piercing power of the missile warhead is from 700 to 900 mm. Needless to say, the M1 with Chopper armor now, even the M1A1 with depleted uranium armor will definitely not withstand the blow of such a missile!

The opening of the fire by the Americans made the East German tank crews extremely angry, and with the roar of the muzzle, the 9M119 with the flames was dragged and flew towards the opposite side!

The only unpleasant thing is that the flight time of the artillery missiles is somewhat long, but the Americans loaded the shells by hand, and the speed was not very fast. (To be continued.) )
