Chapter 19: M134 and M61!
After listening to the data from Davari's analysis, Zhang Fan directly built ten Kirov airships for transportation with a wave of his hand.
After getting the airship, Zhang Fan set his sights on the helicopter gunship again.
【Helicopter gunship】
Cost: 825 (Industrial factory price reduction!) )
Health: 2000
Armor: Light
Armament: M60 airborne machine gun, 160mm howitzer
Function: It can attack air and ground units, and can also serve as a small transport aircraft, with a load of 10,000KG.
"Davaris, can this gunship be modified in terms of weapons?"
Looking at the introduction of the gunship on the panel, Zhang Fan hesitated for a moment and had some thoughts in his heart.
"Yes, Commander, but the cost and weighing will be affected by the changes." Davari explained.
"Then remove the M60 machine guns from the gunships and convert them all into hand-controlled M134 rapid-fire machine guns."
The inspiration for this idea came from a game that Zhang Fan played in his previous life - Call of Duty!
In Call of Duty 8, this weapon was used in the final battle of the first act, and this scene was quite exciting for Zhang Fan, who had just come into contact with gunplay games for a long time.
Now that helicopter gunships are on the horizon, why not give it a try.
The M134 rapid-fire machine gun, also known as the 7.62mm ammunition rapid-fire machine gun, was developed by the United States in the M61 "Vulcan" aviation cannon to reduce the M61 cannon to 7.62×51mm NATO caliber proportionally, and any non-heavily armored object within 100 meters will be penetrated.
Maybe suddenly this gun is not familiar to many people, but in fact, it also has an alias, and that is Gatling!
With a speed of up to 6,000 rounds per minute, this machine gun is a real bullet eater, but correspondingly, the more it consumes, the more powerful it is on the frontal battlefield.
"Commander, what do you think... It's great. Davari's voice couldn't hear joy or anger, but Zhang Fan felt as if the other party was connotating himself.
"What's wrong, isn't that unreasonable?" Zhang Fan was intoxicated with the idea of the future at this time.
In his heart, when there is a war in the future, more than a dozen armed helicopters will fly over directly, and then the people above will fire wildly, and it is estimated that after a few rounds, the other party will be directly gone.
But just as Zhang Fan was looking forward to the future scene, a question suddenly appeared in his mind.
"By the way, the Darvaris, the conscripts should be able to use this machine gun."
Zhang Fan was extremely nervous at this time, the previous sniper rifle incident had poured cold water on him, if he did it again now, he might not be able to bear it.
"Please don't look down on the conscripts so much, as veterans of the battlefield, they are naturally familiar with all kinds of assault rifles and light machine guns, and it is naturally no problem to use this kind of weapon, but the commander... I have a suggestion..."
Davari first explained to Zhang Fan the ability to mobilize troops, and then stopped talking a little.
"It's okay, just to put it bluntly, I've always been good."
Hearing that the Davari clan was unexpectedly hesitant, Zhang Fan was interested.
"Actually, you can consider the M61 Vulcan cannon, which I think may be more suitable for helicopter gunships than the M134 light machine gun."
"Huh?" Hearing this, Zhang Fan was stunned.
Davarie continued to introduce the gap between the two, "The M61 Vulcan cannon is the predecessor of the M134, in essence, there is not much difference between the structure of the two, but there is one key point that you may not care about, that is, the caliber problem,
As a heavy-duty machine gun, the Vulcan gun has always been the first choice for heavy weapon installation, and its muzzle caliber is as high as 20MM, and the rate of fire can be compared with the M134, but the difference between the two in power is completely different, which I think you should understand. ”
“20MM! Are you sure? ”
Hearing this data, Zhang Fan couldn't help but exclaim.
20MM What is this concept?
LET'S PUT IT THIS WAY, BARRETT'S BULLET IS ONLY 12.7MM, AND VULCAN IS UP TO 20MM!
If the M134 can shoot a hole directly, then the bullet fired by the Vulcan cannon is a deep pit, if it hits a person... It is estimated that there is no need to even collect the corpse.
At that scene, Zhang Fan felt goosebumps all over his body just thinking about it.
"Isn't that some... Cruel? ”
Although Zhang Fan didn't have a good impression of the Qing court, he still felt pity for them in his heart.
20MM CALIBER GUNS, WHICH ARE GENERALLY USED TO DEAL WITH THE KIND OF WEAPONS THAT ONLY APPEAR IN THE KIND OF HEAVYWEIGHT GUYS, NOW THIS WEAPON NEEDS THE SOLDIERS OF THE QING COURT TO BLOCK IT WITH FLESH AND BLOOD, WHICH IS REALLY DISTRESSING.
"Your Excellency, if you find it cruel, you can replace it with a blasting bomb, so that you don't even see the corpses, and they don't feel too much pain, what do you think?"
Hearing Zhang Fan's somewhat regretful tone, Davari immediately gave her new proposal.
"You..." Zhang Fan's face was completely stiff at this time, and he didn't know how to reply to Davari at this moment.
This... It seems that there is nothing wrong with that!
It's all death anyway, isn't it kindness to let the other party die happily?
"Just do as you say, then Vulcan Cannon..."After weighing it, Zhang Fan finally felt that there was nothing wrong with what Davari said.
The opponent is the enemy, so when deploying, it is natural for you to pursue the choice that can cause the most casualties to the enemy.
"Commander, the Vulcan cannon has 60 points, after removing the original airborne machine gun, the cost has increased by 50 points, and the bullets can be equipped with 5,000 rounds for free, do you want to increase them?"
After Zhang Fan gave the order, Davari immediately calculated the cost of the new helicopter.
"Uh... I remember if there was a howitzer on it, or it would have been replaced with bullets. ”
Hearing that the cost had risen by fifty, Zhang Fan didn't react much, but he was not very satisfied with the equipment of the bullets.
"After removing the howitzer, the number of bullets that can be exchanged is 20,000 rounds, should I replace them with blasting shells?"
“......”
Zhang Fan pinched his chin and thought about it for a while, and then he still didn't change it.
First, the cost of blasting bullets is higher than ordinary bullets, and secondly, they are not used.
Faced with a group of natives who don't even have body armor, you use blasting bullets?
Then you really look up to them.
Not to mention the soldiers of the Green Battalion in Jiangsu, even if the elite of the Eight Banners comes, you can see if the armor on their bodies can block the Vulcan Cannon.
If you don't shoot you with a single shot, you're good!
"The design is complete, the order has been placed, and the construction time is 10 hours!"
After getting the air power, Zhang Fan thought about it, and then built 3,500 mobilized soldiers, and when he came out, he came to Songjiang Mansion directly in the Kirov airship.
Now that the territory is there, and the enemy army is also on the way, although the other party can be solved with a few hundred mobilized soldiers, but just now Zhang Fan changed this idea.
He wants to make the people of this world understand a truth!
My lord, times have changed!
