Chapter 42: The Most Critical Chariot Upgrade in History
"Anyway, let's try to get more accurate data on Italian vehicles, and then arrange a simulation battle based on the data." After listening to Miho and Amy's opinions, the president Kakutani Anko spoke.
"Isn't Google's data good?" Someone asked.
"It's always good to be exact, and it doesn't take much time." The chairman said leisurely, and suddenly changed the topic again, "But even if there is no bottom, what if you use the quality of the chariot to crush it?" This time, relying on the hype of 'red and black' and successfully defeating or even completely annihilating Sanders, we raised quite a lot of donations. ”
"Oooo I'm really looking forward to it. Yukari's eyes lit up all of a sudden.
"Well, do you have any opinion from Sister Akiyama?" The president looked at the two Akiyama sisters with confidence.
"Regarding the upgrade of the chariot, I actually discussed it with Yuhuali before the national competition, but I knew in my heart that the school's finances were insufficient, so it was just a brain supplement for chariot fans." Willissa explained with a wry smile.
"Let's just say it, the donations we've raised now are enough to sell half of the nomads, and even if you buy a new vehicle of not a high level, it's not impossible. yes, hill. As he spoke, the president looked at Yuzu, who was in charge of sorting out the bills.
"Well, that's right, originally we thought about buying a second-hand IV. H type to upgrade the chariot for Nishizumi and Nakasuka, as a command vehicle and as an important combat force, we need a certain output. However, it was not sold at all, so I considered buying the IV Type C, a long barrel, and additional armor to assemble and assemble. Yuzu replied.
"No, absolutely not, it's a waste! Vehicles are not meant to be squandered! Yuhani suddenly became a little excited. A few people were taken aback.
"Ah, Yuhanari has been playing with chariots in the gap between finances before, so she cares about this very much." Willissa explained.
"Well, the Akiyama sisters must have a very good upgrade plan." The president said.
"Of course, please leave it to us!" Yuhanari stood up and saluted, "I can definitely come up with a plan to strengthen every car to the ceiling with the least amount of money." ”
"Oh, that's reliable."
"It's just a bit of a problem." Willisa said in a cold tone, "Maybe we'll have to see Captain Miho's efforts." ”
"Me?" Miho was stunned for a moment, then said firmly, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely do it." ”
"Youhuali, I'll hand it over to you outside of the Su department." Willisa looked at Yukari.
"Okay, leave it to my sister." Yuhanari seemed to be so cheerful that she dragged the whiteboard from the side of the room as if she was going on an outing, and began to talk with a picture while writing on the board-
"First of all, His Highness Xizhu's chariot must be strengthened, and now the funds are enough to buy the turret of the Panther tank, and we can make an IV turret upgrade."
In 1944, it was widely believed that the potential of the IV had been exhausted, but in November of that year, Krupp came up with an interesting new idea to install the new "arrow" turret of the Panther F on the body of the IV. However, after being installed and tested, the chassis was obviously overwhelmed, so the plan was rejected. However, the shells on the battle lane were lightened, the recoil was not large, and the body was reinforced with a carbon coating, so this scheme became feasible.
Yuhanari continued: "It's really not possible, just buy the L/48 barrel and additional armor to upgrade it to the IV Type H, and the parts removed from the IV tank will not be wasted, and the 75mm L/43 gun can be installed on the III tank of His Highness Nakasuka and become the III tank K." ”
Tank III Type K can be said to be a command tank, this turret is used because of the large volume, you can install a large radio, since it is the turret of Tank IV, then generally speaking, you can also install the Tank IV long-barreled gun, in fact, it has been installed, but it is not installed in large quantities, because the chassis of Tank III is overwhelmed, and now it is completely fine, for the same reason as before.
"Moreover, these vehicles, as well as the III. Tu F/8 and Tiger P, can be equipped with additional armor, and the III. Tu F/8 is similar to the very early III. Tu G type, so just take advantage of the situation and add some armor to upgrade it to the early III. Tu G type. Tiger P will increase the front armor according to the standard of the command vehicle. ”
At this point, Youhuali drew a large circle for these items, listed them as a system, and moved to the blank space of the whiteboard, and the board book and instructions continued-
"In addition, I would like to buy a long-diameter gun that Pershing can carry to strengthen my T26, and now our Chazen vehicles are barely able to penetrate the main armor if they face the heavy tanks of Truth and Hesse. Of course, the T7 90mm tank gun I am using now is also very powerful, and it will not be wasted, this gun, which can be installed on the M6A2 of the first grade group, has become an experimental model of the T1E1 heavy tank equipped with a 90mm gun that has participated in experiments and has a real vehicle in history.
"That's all I want to modify, and I'll leave the rest of the Su system to Huiri to explain."
Huiri flipped the whiteboard full of flowers to the back of the blank, and then wrote the board and explained-
"Now that you have the funds, you can buy the guns of the KV-220 - the guns that the KV-220 can carry are 85mm F-30/95mm F-39/107mm ZIS-6 guns, and any of them can be replaced with the original turret, and the armor can also become stronger by thickening the armor again according to the Soviet Union's combat skill indicators, which is necessary, and the replaced parts will be used to the maximum extent -
"The F-32 tank gun can replace the BT-7A's regimental howitzer, so that the BT-7A has enough firepower to fight against the tank;
"The D-5T gun, which was previously unavailable on the KV-220 turret, can be mounted on the KV-13 and become an IS-1 experimental vehicle, but the gun shield needs to be purchased separately, just use the IS-85 gun shield;
"The gun shield of the 76.2mm gun removed from the KV, together with the original F-22 gun of the Weasel II./76 type, can replace the gun of the SU-IT-45 and upgrade it to the SU-IT-76, but the expansion of the gun circle is a little troublesome."
After writing the board book, Willisa paused and continued: "That is, we only need to buy one turret and two guns, as well as some small parts and additional armor, to upgrade 9 combat vehicles. In fact, if you bought a Type 2 turret last time to upgrade two domestic vehicles, you upgraded 11 vehicles with two turrets and two guns, small parts and additional armor, how about it, it's a good deal, isn't it? All of this is thanks to the researchers and workers of the time, who tried everything in order to make the chariot go on the battlefield and play a role. ”
"Well, it's more than enough for our budget, and it feels like we're one step closer to victory." The president was the first to stretch out his hands and clapped with a smile.
The others applauded.
