Chapter 260: IS-8

Bow to thank the prodigal son for the tip of 1888 and four renewal tickets, bow to thank Lao Xuan for the tip of 100, bow to thank the quill for the tip of 10,000 and three monthly passes! We hereby reward each of the 10th class M60 meritorious cars of the American series! In addition, the prodigal son, what, it is best to vote for 6,000 in the future, 12,000 is really unaffordable

At the same time, under Chen Mo's order, the four chariots that were originally defending on the two mountain roads on the East Road Heights all emitted thick black smoke from behind their buttocks, which meant that their engines were running at full capacity at this time.

The first to rush to the top of the mountain was the tiger hunting under the command of General Zhao Yun, and behind the side of the hunting tiger was the tiger style responsible for protecting the angry sky behind the tiger hunting flank; As for Chen Mo and Chen Tao, the two anti-tanks, because they needed to climb a large uphill slope at a great angle to climb to the top of the mountain from their position, they only climbed half of the hill when the Tiger Hunter and the Tiger were on the top of the mountain to engage the IS-8.

Originally, the top of the mountain should have been occupied by the enemy's tanks, because the enemy's Chongtan and Zhongtan were both born at the foot of the southern slope of the East Road Highlands, which was very close to the top of the mountain, although there was a big uphill, but the time for them to reach the top of the mountain would definitely be earlier than the tanks on Chen Mo's side.

After all, Chen Mo's Chongtan and Zhongtan were both born at the foot of the northern slope of the West Road Heights, and they were only 500 meters away from the foot of the East Road Heights, and the tanks born at the foot of the north slopes of the East Road Heights were some anti-tanks with poor mobility, so Chen Mo adopted defensive tactics on the East Road Heights.

Originally, at the beginning of the game, the situation of the two sides on the East Road Heights was indeed as Chen Mo expected, but the enemy's two reckless tanks. Wipe out the enemy's advantage in the East Road Heights. Coupled with Tian Peng's cannon, it made the enemy in the East Road Highlands a frightened bird.

In fact, if you are in a real world game, this map is relatively simple, although the terrain is not simple, but the tactics are very clear. If in the real world world game, this map is nothing more than one of the three lines of defense, the middle lane and the east and west each way directly attack, and attack it, then the battle will be won, and it will not be attacked. It's not impossible to retreat and continue to defend. So when playing this diagram in the real world world game. It is rare for a long confrontation to occur.

But this is in space, and merit is something that is directly related to life and death. Maybe Chen Mo is rich now, and he doesn't care about the merit value of this area, but in space. The vast majority of people still care a lot about merit. Even if it's to the ninth-level car. As long as there is no big-name legion behind them, the vast majority of people are still living a tight life. So. The more complex the map, the more careful they are.

In fact, if the enemy's three heavy tanks were covered by Tian Peng just now, instead of hiding on the anticline of the southern slope to avoid the artillery, they scattered and stuck several key positions on the top of the high ground on the East Road, then even if Chen Mo and his four tanks wanted to charge, it would be difficult to achieve a rapid charge because of the key positions, and even if you want to rush through these key positions, it is impossible if you don't pay a huge price.

For example, on the mountain road east of the summit location, -8 is stuck behind the rock in the center of the mountain, which can monitor all directions, and in the middle of the mountain road on the east side, arrange a seventh-level mid-tan, and then -8 cooperates with the card position in the back, just with the tiger hunting and tiger style, it is really difficult to smoothly rush over the east mountain road with the same terrain as the central river.

Because the heavy tank stuck on the east mountain road does not need to worry about being covered by artillery at all, because the high mountain in that position can well block all the gun lines from the north artillery, plus there is a -8 carrying a tenth-level gun in the back, and the two heavy tanks are enough to block the east mountain road.

In this room, the IS-8 is undoubtedly a terrible heavy tank, although in terms of armor, the -8 is not as thick and heavy as the American and German armor of the same class, but when combined with the firepower and speed of the -8, the -8 is the best in its class.

In the history of the real world, the IS-8 is a main battle tank developed by post-war science and technology, and it is a tank in the famous IS series.

Like the German E series, the Soviet IS series is a series of tanks developed by the Soviet Union during World War II. Named after Stalin (Iosif Stalin). Germany called it a JS tank, while the Russian word ะ˜ะก tank. Its appearance was mainly due to the impact of the German Tiger and Panther tanks. However, the IS series ended up being a very successful series, while the E series was just a series that existed on paper.

Although the E series is much better than the IS series in every aspect, it is also nonsense if you can't produce the real thing! As the so-called success and defeat, the fate of the two series of tanks of the Soviet Union and Germany is ultimately the same as the fate of their respective owners, if they win, I can come out in a grand manner, and if they lose, they can only exist on paper data, and in the end, even these paper data will be divided by others!

Such is the fate of the loser!

In the history of the real world, the IS series contains many models of tanks, from the original IS, also known as IS-1 or Project 233, to IS-2 (Project 234), then to IS-4 (Project 701), then to IS-3 (Project 703), and then IS-6 (Project 252/253), IS-7 (Project 260) and finally IS-8 (Project 730).

IS-8 is the final product of the IS series, and it is also the latest main battle tank developed by Lao Maozi, to be exact, IS-8 should be called IS-10. The IS-10 tank, known as the Obt730, is the last heavy tank of the IS series of 730 projects. The project was originally developed under the names IS-5 and IS-8, but was later renamed IS-10 after several design changes. But after Stalin's death in 1953, it was renamed the T-10 tank to avoid political disputes. In both space and real-world games, the tank eventually adopted the IS-8 designation.

In 1957, the IS-10, already designated T-8, completed all production, and on July 2, 1960. Khrushchev ordered to stop all work on the development of heavy tanks, and the T-10 became the swan song of Soviet heavy tanks. In 1993, the T-10 tank completely withdrew from Lao Maozi's active service, and after two eras, whether advanced or coming to an end, the T-10 tank has never been exported, which is enough to show the importance of this tank. [

In the research and development process of the IS-8 in the real world, the advantages of various heavy tanks in the previous IS series were fully absorbed, for example, the body of the IS-8 tank was basically the same as that of the IS-7, and the barracuda wedge-shaped upper head armor was adopted, and the upper part was tilted and installed with the bottom of the car at an angle of 57 degrees by welding. Such an armor layout can greatly increase the ricochet rate of the bow of the hull. Make it difficult to penetrate the front of this tank.

For example, compared to the IS-3. The sides of the IS-3 are welded with flat ballistic steel plates, while the IS-8 uses V-shaped steel plates with curved sides to increase the side bullet resistance. As for the turret, a ring of bulletproof steel plates has been added around the perimeter to prevent the opponent's ricocheting bullets from entering the turret's rotating mechanism. The rear of the IS-8 also adopts a stepped arrangement similar to that of the IS-4, which can reduce the impact surface of the rear of the hull.

in space. The tank is still very good. Despite the fact that the nose armor of its body was only 120 mm thick. However, its unique Barracuda wedge-shaped upper head armor and 57-degree inclination angle layout give the -8 an excellent ricochet rate at the bow. Of course, the turret of the -8 adheres to the consistent shape of the Soviet tank, and the arc-shaped armor layout and the 201 mm armor of the turret bow make the front of the -8's head almost an insoluble existence. In sports warfare, as long as the -8 does not expose the fragile side and back, it is really difficult for a tank in the same class of vehicles to penetrate the armor of the -8 in the front, especially when the -8 hides the whole body and sells his head, it is definitely a very painful existence in the same level room.

Compared to the -8, which is not superior in terms of data, the speed and firepower of the -8 are definitely the best in its class.

With 750 hp from the V-12-6 engine, the -8, which weighs nearly 51 tons, can reach a top speed of 50 km/h.

And the -8 is resisting the same ten-level M62-T2 122 mm caliber 47 times diameter tank gun as the IS-4, with a penetration depth of up to 258 mm and 440 damage, which fully reaches the data of the ten-level heavy tank! Although this cannon only has a rate of fire of 4.72 rounds per minute, it can compress the gun's reload rate to just over 10 seconds with the bonuses of the gun loser and ventilation.

Such a combination of speed, firepower, and armor can really be the best in its class, even in the face of heavy armor tanks such as the M103 and E-75, the -8 will definitely not fall behind.

In the real world game, I remember that in the 7.3 version two years ago, the Soviet-based ninth-level heavy tank owned by Chen Mo at that time was IS-4, and as a result, the 7.3 version-4 was directly upgraded to a tenth-level heavy tank, and two new Soviet-based ninth-level heavy tanks appeared, one was the -4 heavy tank line ST-1, and the other was the IS-8 on the IS-7 heavy tank line that was given away by the system at that time.

With the launch of version 7.3, the map of Shangri-La also appeared, when Chen Mo used -8 to beat Shangri-Lai's map for the first time in the game, he got more than 7400 experience in a single game (single experience number), and it is also the highest single-game experience that Chen Mo played in the real world game, and after that battle, Chen Mo also got a Boerter Medal with eight kills, and he didn't die after 38 shells, and got an Immortal Bird Medal, as for what sharpshooter, heavy gunner, etc., There were six or seven medals in that game. This shows how powerful the -8 is.

Although the -8 has since been weakened a lot, it is still an excellent heavy tank in the Tier 9 Heavy Tank.

Therefore, in the space, Chen Mo still did not dare to underestimate this ninth-level heavy tank, and deliberately arranged a tiger hunting and tiger style matching, in the case that the enemy did not have other tanks to cooperate with -8, they used the narrow terrain of the eastern mountain road to force -8 to face off with his own tiger hunting and tiger style, the purpose was to use the terrain to minimize the speed advantage of -8.

To be honest, the best way to fight -8 is not to squat to death, but to fight in motion, relying on the excellent speed and ultra-high ricochet rate of -8, and hitting the enemy with heavy firepower in motion, which is the best combat method of -8.

But the complex terrain at the top of the East Road mountain directly reduced the speed advantage of -8 to nothing! (To be continued......)
