The Ship of Iron Ambition

However, at this time, in Germany, the medium-sized tank is already the third tank, the light tank is mainly the second tank, the first tank as a training car, although it is replaced with the artillery, but only will only return to the second line, act as tank The school training is used, which is also the ultimate improvement version of this model of the tank.

The tank did not use 40 mm / 60 times the tank gun he wanted to be used.

No. 1 tank, as a "war" material after the war, exported to foreign exports in extremely low prices, Finland purchased ten, Yugoslav, Romania, Hungary and other countries, dozens of dozens of dozens. In addition, Germany also presented twenty and ten No. 1 G-type to Norway, Denmark with "military aid". These countries have purchased the No. 1 tank, mainly to see his structure is simple, used, safe and cost-effective, suitable for tank training cars that serve as a armored soldier.

It is the country that is the largest tank after the war is a German Poland.

After 1943, under the bayonet of the German, Poland was scored because of the needs of Sude, and "re-China" was once again For political needs, the Germans have a one-time "gift" of the "German Polish Republic" disposable "gift" as a gift.

In order to nausea Pole, the Germans also scored 20,000 square kilometers of land in front of the front Poland, and established a Jeepssen Kingdom, and then with the Soviet Union, the two countries collected Gups in Europe, then Forcently transported a car in the train to help them establish a Gypsy Republic.

In the old Europe, the Gypsy is more disgusting than the Jews. Whether it is Stalin or Hannah, it is very annoying that this is only like wandering, stealing, fortune telling, is a good job of can't calm down. This kind of behavior of the two countries forced Gypsies, but also got a full of European, and helping everyone solved the Qi Jei thief. After the establishment of the Gypsy Republic, the German also sent thirty-first tank as a gift.

In Asia, China and Lanfang have received three early type 1 tanks, and the two sorts of two tanks are in stock in their respective chariot museums. Two of China, a museum in Beijing Military Museum is an early type A, and another is a G-type, which is placed in the military museum of Shanghai. In the museum of Lanfang's New Kunlun, the car, is a number of exported Spain.

In the German armored soldiers, the outer number of tanks called "small mouse". This outer number is Lin Han, for a kind of disgusted, he and Hanna have taken the animal's outer number to each tank developed by Germany.

As the tank, the German Army specializes in the number of tanks that add up less than 800. However, as an artillery traction car and ammunition conveyor, the six-ton-stage deformation vehicle armored tractor of the six-ton-level deformation car was produced more than three hundred. The tank itself basically does not participate in the French Battle of the West, but its deformation vehicle, armored tractor has a lot of active on the French battlefield, and the main task is filled with artillery tracing and ammunition transport vehicles.

In history, when the French battle, the number of tanks in Germany armored in the hands of the German armored soldiers is very sufficient, so the first tank of the protection is not sent to the battlefield. In pair of various deformation vehicles of the tank, its most famous deformation vehicle is a self-container gun car installed 2x4 eight unloading rocket. In the French battlefield, the screams at the time of launch leaving a very deep impression on the British and French coalition, got the outer number of Hitler's accordion.

Tank development history

The second tank has begun to mass production in the second half of 1935, and the total production line has been completely closed by 1941, and the total production of one thousand six hundred is the important force of the one-year war.

In 1932, Hitler was one of the development projects that he had focused on the stage in advance. First, the German machinery, according to the three major indicators in Hanna, changed the German Tank Development Plan, as the first priority development project, and even stopped the original Tank's development to directly plagiarism Gram, and all human resources are concentrated on this 13 ton tank development project.

The second tank is a light tank project, which is a four-person vehicle group, and the artillery is a 40 mm / 60 times diameter tank. The design weight is 13 tons, and the improved strengthening protection is increased to 15 tons. In the German, it is called the wild cat tank.

In addition to the lack of production of artillery, the tank is temporarily used for the 13 mm ranging machine gun to replace the artillery for tank training, and its weapons have been using the tank gun 40/60 times.

This PAK36 40/60 tank cannon, due to the use of the famous Bosso artillery, early trend due to insufficient production capacity of the gun, the cause of the military plan to give the Bosso high gun, the output is limited It has to spend foreign exchange from Sweden imports four hundred trees of artillery supplements.

The first sample car has been made in April 1934, a total of five, and then strict repeated tests. In the second year, the production drawings have been fixed, and the production line is ready to produce in September, and the first batch of five two tanks in October go down the production line.

Since there is a "correct" development direction from the beginning, from the A-type to D, in addition to armor gradually thickening, and subtle adjustments in mechanical structural design, this type tank is increased. There is no big improvement.

The E-type is experimental type, with only three outputs, between 20 tons of -25 tons, main purpose is to test a greater weight of the damaged system in order to provide experience in the next generation of tank development. Can't come out, these three tanks are seriously damaged after performing overload tests, and can only be scrapped. However, the three sample cars have been stored in the post-reservation, and I was sent to the German Battle Museum for many years.

The F-type war was developed, and the previous models were different, and the type of housing system was heavy, and the horsepower is more horsepower, and the F is called F-type. In fact, in addition to the body or two Outside the tank, the internal structure of the car and other models of other models have been greatly different, and the tank is named a mountain cat.

According to the original development idea, this tank is positioned as a reconnaissance tank.

However, the F-type production is very small, and only twenty-five vehicles have been produced. The main reason is that Germany has started a new E-Bike universal chassis program, and also changes to the use of tanks, and reconnaissance tanks are replaced by the infantry chariots in the plan.

Although the F-type production is less, I am fortunate to participate in the war - Israel is the only overseas user of the F-type. When Israeli founding the country, Germany's "generous" aided their "more" equipment. Twenty No. 2 F-Tyam cat tank was sent to Israel, participated in the first Middle East War and the Second Middle East War.

On the second tank, you can see the prototypes of the "General Chassis" ideas in Germany, which takes into account the development of many deformation vehicles at the beginning of the design and production.

In the combat idea of ​​German armor, the second tank is a auxiliary supplement to the third tank, and its relative cost-to-earth chassis is widely used in installation of various types of artillery, there are a variety of deformation vehicles.

If the No. 2 impact of the 75mm / 24 times, the Fire tank of the unit.

In a year war, there were about 1,300 Battlers in the West Line, to give the war, more than 400 of them were his various deformation vehicles. On the Western European battlefield, the second tank and its deformation vehicle were played as a helper of the third tank.

After the founding of New China in 1937, the first tank production line introduced from Germany was the second tank. However, although China has already begun to study the production of No. 2 tanks, due to the lack of proficient workers, the production capacity of armored steel is insufficient, the engine is self-produced, and the output is low in the early days. At the end of the 1940 War, only more than 200 Vehicle.

After the end of the war, China has received more advanced three tanks and four tanks provided by Germany, and the production plan of the second tank was stopped. In addition, the development of the Northeast, the development of the northeast needs a large number of tractors, introducing part of the Oriental Red Tank Factory of the 2nd Tank Production Line to turn to the tractor, and its main technical force turns to overcome the four tanks and its improved E36 The production of difficulties, the production of No. 2 tanks is also ended in China.

Its production in China is not high, but its production process helps new China has cultivated a lot of industrial workers.

The most successful deformation vehicle of the second tank is the sixteen-ton light tank fighter truck developed in 1941, and the F-type body is developed. The model and history of the car are hit. The car is extremely similar, installing a 75/42 times tank gun from the three tanks.

The design idea of ​​this tank fighter is to deal with the "T34" sea that may appear in the future. However, Sude has been in a peaceful state, and the German Army has little equipment demand. It only produces 20 for testing to stop orders, and then it is sealed as a technical storage. Although there is no further equipment, the research department has been continuously improved by development funding requirements, and the ultimate improvement version is the E10 chase hunter type II tank fighter.

This situation has been continued until 1948, until the anti-tank ability is stronger, using the "Swing" turret's light tank fighter truck development is successful, the military will order the development of this series.

Although the tank of the tank strikes in Germany, although there is no official equipment, it has achieved unexpected good results in overseas sales.

Nordic Finnish, Sweden, Switzerland, Southern Europe, Yugoslavia, Greece, Southern Europe, Greece, in addition to the "unlocked" Slovakia and Poland in Germany, very much like this simple, easy to maintain light fighters . In South America, Argentine is also a user of this lightweight tank.

The chase hunter and its improved upgrade E10 tank strikes, due to the continuous acquisition of overseas production orders, its production line has been maintained until 1952. Its production life is even longer than the four tanks.

The Czech Co-Daddy Factory has also been licensed by the production line of Germany. After Germany closed the E10 tank car production line, they continued to produce nearly three hundred E10 E10 E10 produced by the country and foreign countries.

Users who chase hunters in Asia are ominthians. After the independence of the People's Republic of China, he was killed by Japan and Lanfang and the "Three Kingdoms" in Thailand, and the Warlios were desperately enhanced. They can't afford their expensive tanks, because they look at the price is cheap, because of the price is very cheap, and a place of up to 150 orders.

Due to its simple structure, it is convenient to produce a large number of production, and its production technology is largely exported to the "Allies" below Germany. After the car completed all overseas orders in 1946, Italy bought a full set of production lines for self-production. In addition to italy, North Law has also obtained the production license of the tank fighter truck.

Third Tank (Panther)

The third tank comes from the 20 ton of tank development plan. Initially Good Ri'an proposed its limit to more than 25 tons of restrictions to adapt to European bridges.

But a requirement is later by Hannah, Hannah will increase its upper limit to 27 tons, and directly to the tank designer, this tank will thicken armor and strengthen the artillery to increase the weight to 27 tons, so it must be left when designing It is sufficient to hygroscopic.

From the beginning, the three tanks were sent to Hannah's main force in the French campaign of Hanna. (Note: Germany is almost a tank and 20 tons of tanks at the same time at the same time, but Hanna has canceled the development plan of 15 tons of tank, so the number of 20 tons of tanks move forward. One, become three)

According to Hannah "Perfect Plan": The tank plans to install a main gun of 75 mm / 55 times the diameter, five pairs of large diameter load wheel, 60 degrees face oblique armor, five-person vehicle group.

But the plan is very beautiful, but the reality is very cruel, and Germany is a biggest enemy in the United States. In practice, the people of the armament equipment clearly told Hannah: Due to the complex structure, high production workers, the military factory is not possible to provide enough 75 mm / 55 times tank guns before 1940.

Therefore, finally, it has to be returned, and it is changed to install a tank gun replacement of 75 mm / 42 times.

Although named 20 tons of plans, Hannah asked if Hannah asked him to leave a weight loss. The tank plans to install a main gun of 75 mm / 42 degree diameters, 60 degrees face oblique armor, five-person vehicle group. Taking into account the Western European Battlefield multi-vlapsion, the tank uses 40 mm wide cracks. According to Hannah plans, after the end of the French Campaign, the production schedule of the three tanks will gradually stop, and Germany will transfer 30 tons of tanks.

In order to accelerate the development schedule of the third tank, its design and development is an enlargement improvement on the basis of the second tank, so the outer tanks are very similar.

The three tanks, from the A-type to C types are experimental types, the output is not high, add up to 300, May 1938 May, finally determine the version D started production, then the full turn has risen to twenty Five tons.

At this time, after many years of adjustment, the German military industry finally completed the integration and ended the chaos and inefficient production conditions.

On March, the third D-type, the first month of production is only twenty, and the second month has increased to ninety. September, with the newly built Nibongen Tank Factory in Ruhr District. When the output suddenly expanded to two hundred, and in October 1939, Sude took his hand to declare war in Poland, and the German armored soldiers had received a three tank close to 2,000.

After the Battle of Poland, most of the four tanks in the long winter, all of the newly designed 13 mm air defense machine guns were installed, and many of the three tanks were improved according to the French combat environment, thickening the side armor. 30 mm, the total weight is increased from 25 tons to 26 tons, which is upgraded to an E-type.

The tank has a D3-type improvement version, which is a fire-fighting tank that replaces a body gun into a flame injector. The tank is custom-made to the rear tank before the French campaign, with ninety this type. The tank was sent to the front line. In addition, the tank repair workshop has also transformed a batch. The specific total number is unknown. In the battle between the battle and offensive color of the Mashe, the tank participated in the battle.

In May 1940, when French campaign broke out, there were more than one thousand eight hundred three tanks in Western Europe, causing a famous three tank crisis. Although the three tanks cannot be equipped with a more powerful 75 mm / 55-fold tank gun because of the cause of capacity, it can only use the shrinkage tank of the structure relatively simple 42-degree diameter. However, the British and French tank firepower during this period is very weak. Even if the reduction of 42 times 75 cannon, it is also the existence of them, and the tank is the important hero of the Western Campaign in Germany.

Because the offers' open, Germany's military production capacity is almost doubled, but because the Soviet Union is going to "joke" in the East Line, there is still nearly three tanks during the French campaign. East Line is in case. During this period, Germany's largest problem is not a tank, but the offensive speed is too fast, and the logistics replenishment often can't keep up. The frontline troops are called back to the lack of replenishment, rather than the number of tanks, so too much The tank is not significant.

After the end of the French Battle, the Germans of "idle" finally "slowly" will upgrade the tank gun into a predetermined 55 degree diameter, which is the final version of F-type.

However, at this time, the eyes of Hannah have stared on the 4th tank using the 88mm tank gun, and the UK quickly sucked from the hit of the Three Kingdoms Alliance in China. As the war ended, the three tanks stopped the production equipment army in 1941. The mission of the idle tank factory is mainly to improve the old three tanks, according to the F-type standard.

The three tanks were exported to the Middle East after the year war. The main users were Israel, and they participated in the War of the Middle East, and there were T34 tanks and KV tanks, even T44 tanks (T54 / 55 of the later generation). I have achieved good results.

Although the three tanks have even hurt T44 on the battlefield, it is not the reason why he is more advanced than T44. It is the way the Arab uses the way the tank and the bad armor technology, what tanks fall into their hands, they will only go out.
