Chapter 7 007 Type 99 Blows Type 59

In February, the Dalinor base had already established an air command department, which was naturally not only a command system, but also included a number of facilities such as radar base stations, aviation weapons manufacturing plants, and airports. As soon as the empty finger is in place, it means that the Dalinor base has a real attack capability, and the scope of defense has been greatly expanded, and it will be more comfortable in the face of possible threats from the north.

The barracks recruit 100 soldiers per day, the tank factory can produce 12 tanks per day, and the air command department can produce 4 fighters per day. Roughly imagine that a regular establishment is what an infantry company, a tank company, and a flying squadron look like a day.

Fearful of the danger posed by uncontrolled soldiers, the barracks now mainly provide light weapons and engineers, but the tank factories and air command units, which produce thousands of tanks and thousands of warplanes a year, have been producing weapons at horsepower since they were built.

The production of the tank factory is mainly based on the Type 99 main battle tank and the Type 09 8-wheeled infantry fighting vehicle, in addition, the production capacity is also allocated to the Type 05 155mm self-propelled gun, WS-3 rocket launcher, Type 95 self-propelled anti-aircraft gun and other armored combat vehicles.

At first, it was only designed to build a road to Chifeng, but then it was found that a large number of tanks and armored vehicles produced here could not be transported by road alone, so they planned to build a special railway from Zhangjiakou to this side to transport the above armored vehicles.

Now, in order to quickly receive these advanced military equipment, the Central Military Commission has specially allocated an armored regiment from the Banzai Army to Dalinol to learn how to operate the Type 99 and other advanced combat weapons.

They are not entirely on their own, and the armor created by the tank factory will become their instructors and assist them in their training.

Qi Yiming and Liao Huairen made a special trip to the temporary station of the 336th Regiment of the 112th Division at a distance from Dalinor, and they have received 120 Type 99 main battle tanks from Dalinor during this time.

Xu Guangfu, commander of the 336th Regiment, personally greeted Qi Yiming and others out of the camp after receiving that Qi Yiming and others were coming to their station for "inspection."

"Greetings, chiefs!" Xu Guangfu saluted very warmly.

Liao Huairen also returned the salute to him, he himself was a member of the intelligence department of the General Staff and was famous, and Xu Guangfu had also heard of him. Qi Yiming stopped pretending to be a soldier, although he was wearing a military uniform, he honestly shook hands with Xu Guangfu.

The soldiers in the camp also lined up the tanks they had just received and were not yet hot, standing on the roof and in front of the car to show their mighty military appearance. What is a little different is that after Qi Yiming built a supply station building at the base, they all got new military uniforms, which were Type 07 digital camouflage uniforms.

The 112th Division of the 38th Army is the first division-level unit to carry out mechanization in the whole army, and the 336th Regiment is also the fist unit of the 112th Division, an armored regiment specializing in attacking tough battles. The combat effectiveness and morale of this unit are outstanding at the level of the whole army, which is also the reason why the superiors of the army chose them to come directly to Dalinor to take over the new equipment and quickly form combat effectiveness.

Although Xu Guangfu didn't know the specific identity of the young man Lu Daoqi Yiming, he vaguely understood that he should be one of the principals of this huge Dalinor base, so it was right to react to him when it came to the equipment situation.

"To be honest, before we received the new equipment, we never imagined that there would be such a powerful tank in the world. The 125mm caliber 50 times the body tube, 1500 horsepower can reach a speed of 80 kilometers per hour, and with this inert additional armor, it will not cause accidental damage to the coordinated infantry like explosive reactive armor. Well, what amazes us the most is the advanced fire control system, with this hunting fire control, the combat power of the combat vehicle has increased at least several times. Although Xu Guangfu has only been getting the new weapon for many days, it is obvious that he and his soldiers have worked hard to study it.

At this time, the Type 59 tank used by the PLA Army is still using a 100mm caliber smoothbore gun, and the Type 59-I main battle tank finalized last year has just been equipped with a simple fire control system, equipped with hydraulic steering, automatic fire suppression, rubber side skirts and other equipment, it looks much more advanced than the old 59, but when compared with the Type 99, it is simply faceless to come out to meet people.

In fact, Qi Yiming arranged for the base to produce this Type 99 for the follow-up improved version 99A3, which can be called the culmination of decades of development of China's armored vehicles, not to mention that the base production version has also undergone major changes to immature factors such as maintainability and stability, so Xu Guangfu The Type 99 they got is stronger than the original 99A3.

Qi Yiming smiled and asked, "Have you understood the laser suppression system?" ”

Xu Guangfu shook his head and said: "That thing is too advanced, and it is too delicate compared to other equipment, and the instructor sent by the base said that he is not in a hurry to learn this thing." ”

"That's right, this thing is now equipped by our family, although it does have a lot of problems, but it works wonders on the battlefield, you can study it more." Qi Yiming said with a smile.

The so-called laser pressing system is actually a laser dazzling ray generator and laser compression generator. It was also the first main battle tank to adopt similar equipment among the main battle tanks. Its main function is to fire a laser to blind the driver of the enemy's main battle tank, causing the driver to temporarily lose his vision, panic and provide an opportunity for himself to attack. At the same time, the laser suppression capability can also interfere with the opponent's fire control and observation systems, to put it bluntly, the machine is also blinded.

This set of equipment was not applied to the battlefield to gain actual combat experience before Qi Yiming crossed over, and even although it was rumored in the outside world, the Celestial Empire military did not declassify and publicly admit the existence of this weapon.

Liao Huairen doesn't particularly understand the army armored corps, but from the appearance alone, the 99 type with sharp edges and digital camouflage is much more pleasing to the eye than the 59 type, and he asked: "After you got the new tank, did you have a direct comparison with the old tank to test the armor-piercing ability of both sides?" ”

Xu Guangfu listened to Liao Huairen's question, and suddenly became eyebrows and danced, he said: "We got 4 Type 59 vehicles that are about to be retired as training target vehicles this time, and we have knocked out one a few days ago, I still feel distressed before, it is obviously a tank that can still be used, so it is a pity to knock it out, but I also feel that there is nothing after the most Lu, with the new Type 99, its practical 59 is not of much significance, the skin is too thin and too brittle, if the chief wants to see it, we will arrange another real target today to see." ”

Qi Yiming was also very happy, although the tank was made by his factory, but he really hadn't seen such a thing as tanks fighting each other.

Xu Guangfu first called a crew over, drove a Type 59 tank that looked quite old, and pulled out a new Type 99 tank and placed it in the middle.

"The Type 99 crew came out of the car first, and tested the Type 99's armored defense capability first."

Xu Guangfu didn't know if Lu Dao deliberately wanted to perform today, and even asked the Type 59 crew to finish all the shells with a base of 34 rounds.

However, after hitting a base number is not to put the muzzle in front of the face of the Type 99 and hit it hard, in fact, no tank has the ability to shoot a base number of shells in one go, and the gun body needs to be cooled down after a few rounds before it can be hit again.

The firing range of the cannon is also positioned at several different distances of 1200 meters, 800 meters, 500 meters, 200 meters and 100 meters, which is basically from the effective distance of the 59 type. I saw that this Type 59 tank began to fire shells at a lonely Type 99 in the range from a great distance. However, the shooting results were not satisfactory, and the first three shots were all missed, and not even a single shell hit within three meters of Type 99.

Xu Guangfu shook his head and asked directly through the radio: "Don't fight, jump directly to 500 meters." ”

The embarrassed Type 59 started and moved to a distance of 500 meters at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour, hitting the frontal armor of the Type 99. However, after firing four shells in a row, there is still one shot off the target, which is still a tank that cannot move, and if the opponent moves, it is estimated that it is even more unlikely to hit.

Several 100mm shells hit the Type 99 frontal armor, and there were no signs of damage.

Later, whether it was changed to the side or shortened the range again, all 34 shells were fired, and the Type 99 remained unmoved, and it seemed that the Type 59 attack was not taken seriously at all.

Xu Guangfu rubbed his hands and said, "Let's change to Type 99, two thousand meters, take a look." ”

The Type 99 crew jumped directly into the tank that had just been hit a lot, and the Type 59 crew members quickly jumped out of the car for fear of being able to dodge, and then ran as far as possible. When the Type 99 drove to a distance of about 2,000 meters, the gun commander immediately calculated the coordinates through the observation and sighting system and the fire control computer, and this hunting and destroying system allowed to aim only once, and then continue to strike.

In fact, the gun commander did not need a second shell at all, and the first tungsten alloy tail stabilized deshelling armor-piercing shell entered from the front, piercing the Type 59 through two transparent holes from front to back. Armor-piercing shells piercing through the armor melted steel and caused a splash-like effect, killing people and detonating fuel, ammunition, etc., although there were no shells left in this 59 Middle School, it still exploded a large fireball, and it was completely scrapped there.

Liao Huairen applauded excitedly: "Great, if we are equipped with a hundred Type 99s, it will be enough to fight the enemy's five hundred or even a thousand tanks!" ”

A smile tugged at the corner of Qi Yiming's mouth, he knew this effect well, because fundamentally this was a tank that was two generations behind. Qi Yiming is also convinced that the Type 99 produced by the base will never fall behind even in the face of the Soviet T-80 and the American M1. To be precise, it is easy and enjoyable to blow up the enemy.
