Chapter 47 Tank destroyers roll off the assembly line
Today's glide test was indeed very successful, and then the leaders came to the final assembly workshop of the tank destroyer.
Because the afternoon is the time for the tank destroyer to roll off the assembly line, there are two tank destroyers made this time, they have been installed with turrets, and this car is equipped with a 57-mm anti-tank gun, so it looks very powerful, as if the tank has been replaced by a wheeled one.
The leaders stepped forward excitedly, touching this and that, the excitement in their hearts was self-evident, isn't this just a tank, and it looks much stronger than the devil's tank.
This is the most advanced tank destroyer in the world, and it is still made by the Eighth Route Army itself, I saw this tank destroyer, the body is dark green, if you drive it, it has a good stealth function, and you can't see it from afar.
Duan Yunpeng followed the leaders and introduced the two tank destroyers to the leaders.
"Leaders, our tank destroyer is a weapon specially used for anti-tank, its most important thing is that the cost is lower than that of the tank, using a wheeled chassis, so that it is faster, equipped with a 57 mm anti-tank gun, at present, any kind of tank that the devil has invested on our battlefield cannot stop its cannon, so with it, our Eighth Route Army can rest assured that it will boldly have a head-on duel with the devil's armored forces." Duan Yunpeng said very confidently.
A leader said excitedly: "No devil tank can stop it from a single shot?" This is great, with such a good tank destroyer, we can really equip it for a full-scale counterattack, of course, there must be enough of them! ”
Duan Yunpeng said: "That's right, we are going to complete all the tests in three months, and then start mass production, so that we can deliver a hundred anti-tank destroyers in half a year at the earliest!" ”
One hundred anti-tank destroyers, it doesn't seem like much, but in fact it's not a lot, after all, the Eighth Route Army didn't have such a powerful armored combat vehicle before, so it still needs to be trained before it can fight, and in another three months, there will be one or two hundred more, and then it will be nearly three hundred tank destroyers.
If you put so much money on the battlefield at once, the power is amazing.
You must know that the little devils sent a total of 200 tanks on the battlefield in China, so if the Eighth Route Army had more than 200 tank destroyers, it would definitely be a nightmare for the little devils.
At that time, the little devils will inevitably have to double down on the new tanks to come to the Chinese battlefield, so these tank destroyers will still be very useful at that time.
In Duan Yunpeng's previous life, the Japanese army only conducted a large-scale tank battle in China, that is, the Battle of Henan-Zhong.
Of course, this is not the same as Europe, where thousands of tanks are often duel.
This is naturally because the Chinese army does not have any heavy weapons, so the little devils can have an absolute advantage with a small number of tanks.
So the Japanese army rarely dispatched tanks at that time, but now it is different, the little devil has now seen that the Eighth Route Army has more heavy weapons, so it is also increasing the investment in tanks.
According to the information obtained now, the devils want to put more than 500 new tanks into the Chinese battlefield, which is definitely a big war.
In fact, during the Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese army was not without tanks, in the earliest days, the Northeast Army was actually an army with complete land, sea and air, not only a large number of combat aircraft, but also the first Chinese armored force, which was equipped with more than 30 tanks imported from Europe and dozens of armored personnel carriers.
It's a pity that these tanks and planes, together with the little devils, didn't shoot a single shot, and they easily got their hands on it, and they turned around to hit the Chinese army.
If you want to blame this, you can only blame the Northeast Army for not resisting, and this is also because of a big young master.
The Chinese army was armed with a number of German-made 37-mm anti-tank guns, but at the time of the Battle of Wuhan, most of them were consumed.
Therefore, now the leaders of the Eighth Route Army, when they see the 57-mm anti-tank gun of the anti-tank destroyer, really love it.
This tank gun is really fierce, and it looks very powerful.
On the battlefield in China, tanks are indeed not like in Europe, because there are many terrains that are not suitable, but on the North China Plain, there is no problem at all, they are all battlefields of tanks.
The 57-mm anti-tank guns are indeed much stronger than the 37-mm anti-tank guns imported from Germany, after all, the caliber is nearly twice as large.
And with the wheeled armored vehicle chassis, the mobility is stronger than that of the tank Driven by a powerful diesel engine, the maximum speed of this tank destroyer on the road can reach more than 70 kilometers, and there is no problem with off-roading.
The test of this tank destroyer is not too complicated, after all, it all costs money, and now how to save money and how to come, and no one will wait for another time.
Duan Yunpeng continued: "Leaders, in the next step, we are also going to develop our own light tanks, medium tanks, and develop 88mm anti-tank guns. In the future, if you want to hit any county, the tank drove directly over, and a few artillery shells opened the gap. ”
The leaders listened to it with enthusiasm, this is going to be real, the little devil is afraid that it will be wiped out in less than two years, and then it will hit the devil's homeland and let it taste powerful.
But you have to build warships.
Next is the official offline ceremony, the leaders began to cut the ribbon, and the scene was full of applause.
The next thing is to prepare for a test drive, but it is still Duan Yunpeng who came in person, and Li Yunlong also jumped into the car very excitedly and sat in the gunner's position, although he didn't drive it, but it was not bad to experience the Mercedes-Benz.
Duan Yunpeng began to start the engine of the anti-tank destroyer, boom, boom, like the sound of a tractor, but the movement was louder.
Smoke came out of the exhaust pipe, Duan Yunpeng skillfully geared and stepped on the accelerator, and the tank destroyer began to slowly drive towards the outside of the workshop.
Li Yunlong stood on the roof of the car, waving at everyone, and the smile on his face never stopped.
Wheeled tank destroyers, which are easier and easier to drive than tanks.
Soon Duan Yunpeng drove this wheeled tank destroyer and galloped on the road.
It's fast, and it's hard to believe.
The leaders all smiled crookedly, today is really a double happiness, whether it is a tank destroyer or a Fury fighter, they are all sharp weapons to fight devils, and it will be easier to fight devils in the future.
