Also shocked by the shelling were other countries, and the only country in the world that currently has a large-caliber artillery group is North Korea.

In particular, the famous Gushan cannon, with its firing range of more than 60 kilometers, is equivalent to a strategic weapon in a special environment.

I didn't expect that here in the Middle East, you can actually see artilleryism.

However, what really shocked the world was that this time the future technology exposed the rate of fire and lethality of these artillery.

Self-propelled artillery, which is the main battle equipment of the armies of various countries, as a fast-moving fire support platform, is highly valued by the development of the armies of various countries.

Those large-caliber towed artillery are not unusual, after all, artillery has been developed for hundreds of years.

But in the artillery positions of the third echelon, fifty self-propelled guns in a neat row directly became the brightest stars in the artillery cluster.

Huge bodywork, more than the size of any self-propelled gun in any country.

The caliber of 175 mm is also one of the super-large caliber self-propelled guns among all countries.

The long barrel looks like it speaks to its ultra-long range.

Many international military experts also speculated, and soon came up with a similar figure.

The total weight of the battle is almost sixty tons, which is not a problem at all in the Middle East environment, and freedom of movement is not a problem at all.

According to the needs of the combat environment, in the Middle East, where there is not much water network and is dry all year round, even a 100-ton tank can fight freely.

Therefore, the full weight of sixty tons of combat is not too heavy.

Extremely high caliber ratio. It also greatly extended the range of artillery. And they can't see what's going on inside the vehicle-mounted turret, though.

However, the muzzle velocity of the gun ejection chamber was analyzed through video slow play. It can also be concluded that this gun must have used high bore pressure technology.

This technique allows the muzzle velocity of the shell to exceed that of any other type of artillery.

Such a technology is generally applied to the main gun of the tank, and the high muzzle velocity brought by the high bore pressure can greatly improve the kinetic lethality of the shell.

Especially for those armor-piercing shells, the increased lethality of the main gun with high bore pressure can reach more than 15%.

And explosive attack shells like armor-piercing shells. The increased kinetic energy kills will also increase the power of the shell.

At the same time, judging by the rate of fire of this automatic gun, it is also necessary to use an automatic reloading device.

Together with the ability to carry the power of such a caliber, its chassis can already be a very good tank chassis.

In the end, all military experts can come to the conclusion that through the performance of this self-propelled gun, the Future Technology Group already has the technology to produce main battle tanks.

Perhaps, just like this self-propelled gun, other people's tanks are already in production, but it is not yet time to appear.

Perhaps this speculation is a bit exaggerated, after all, no one knows what the scale of the production plant of the future technology group will be.

But no one doubted such statements. Those weapons and equipment painted with the logo of Future Technology Group have not all suddenly appeared on the battlefield under everyone's unexpected eyes.

Think of those anti-aircraft guns that suddenly appeared in the first place. Everyone had to deepen their guesses, how many secrets were hidden beneath the land of Marin Town?

Is the Future Technology Group really just a few months old? Maybe this is a big game of chess that has been planned for a long time.

However, despite all the skepticism and speculation in the world, Future Technology Group has never really explained it.

This is understandable to everyone, after all, no one can reveal their secrets to the world.

It's as if the mutual speculation between countries is the most convincing when it comes to what is most reasonable and closest to reality.

Even if Cai Ruichen really reveals some secrets one day, he will still be considered that this is just a smoke bomb deliberately released by him.

After all, there are some things that are still too much for people to know, especially for those who think they are smart, and it is extremely difficult to subvert the worldview of such people, even if it is true.

Unless they see it with their own eyes, there may not be many people who believe it.

It's just that Cai Ruichen naturally can't say it, maybe someone with a big brain will believe it.

He just needs to remain silent and let them find the answer that they think is the most plausible.

However, to his regret, he did not have the technology to produce tanks, as the outside world had speculated.

Tank killers were also drawn recently, and as for the shipyards, they have not yet been built.

The tank killer that was immediately used on the battlefield, although it played a role as soon as it appeared, it really didn't have a tank as useful.

After all, the current operations of the troops are all within the scope of the base, and there is no need for such weapons as tank killers at all.

Towed artillery, completely sufficient. Using the tank killer as a fixed turret is more just a waste.

If it weren't for the comprehensive testing of the performance of this equipment, he wouldn't have produced so much in one go.

Compared with the artillery with a price of only a few hundred to thousands of funds, the tank killer with a cost of 30,000 funds is too low at present.

If in the future, when the large corps performs combat missions far from the base, then the cost performance of self-propelled guns will be higher.

But the body, which weighs 60 tons, is still a bit heavy.

There is also no way to quickly lift helicopters to the war zone, and long-distance transportation requires heavy trucks or heavy transport aircraft.

Otherwise, the life of the track, coupled with the fact that it is not very fast, will not be able to keep up with the rhythm of the battle at all.

And due to the size, the large-caliber tank killer is also not suitable for large-scale air transportation.

In the case of transport aircraft such as the Il-76, it can only transport two tank killers in the lightest state at a time.

Therefore, although this weapon is hugely lethal, there are still those more cost-effective towed artillery at this stage, in fact, unless someone is willing to buy it, it really doesn't have much effect.

If it were replaced by tanks, it would be completely different, and there would be no need for indiscriminate wasteful shelling of Samarra.

The Red Alert regular army combined with the main battle tanks, coupled with the suppression of artillery, was enough for the troops to quickly take Samarra.

Even with only 3,000 troops, it is enough to cooperate with one or twenty main battle tanks.

However, for the current base, there is nothing to regret, and Cai Ruichen's mentality is also very open.

Because a ruined Samarra is definitely more in line with the short-term interests of the Future Technology Group than a complete Samarra.

After all, if Samarra is preserved intact, the Iraqi government may not willingly let Cai Ruichen enter the city.

So there are pros and cons, and everything is good and bad. (To be continued.) )
