My Third Empire

Chapter 565: rainy season

Biquge www.readwn.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!

The quality of roads in Ukraine is really not very good. Most roads are earthy and of low quality. The weather conditions in the past two days have not been very good either. The heavy rains caused the fragile transportation system in Ukraine to almost collapse.

The car was stuck in the mud and the wheels were covered with mud. When the soldiers rushed to the road, they were caught in the mud. All they pulled out with all their strength was their feet. As for the shoes, they would bend down and pick them up by hand.

A military vehicle was parked on the muddy road, and the huge gear logo was impressive. The experimental unit of the German science and technology department has always been a relatively exotic existence on the battlefield. They often put some weird designs on the front, some of them are really impressive, and some are more front-end with a little black humor.

A few days ago, the troops in Belarus accepted an experimental mission. The experiment was to install two rocket propulsion devices on an aircraft to allow the fighter to break through 800 kilometers per hour in a few minutes and become an "invincible fighter". . As a result, the plane disintegrated in the air due to structural problems, and the pilot escaped by parachuting.

This time, the things they brought were more confidential. After they were unloaded from the train, they were protected by the SS garrison troops all the way to the experimental site on the front line, and no less than 3,000 people were deployed around the experimental site. Defend the power.

And for this test, the trump cards of the two military forces arrived here from different locations. They were not the first time to meet each other, so they quickly shook hands and shook hands.

"Nice to meet you, Ryan Harder, I heard you played well on the Eastern Front, but I had better luck in the UK." Mitchell Weitman said to Ryan with a smile.

Ryan smiled without speaking. He grew taller in half a year, and he no longer looked so thin, but he was still of medium build, standing beside Wittmann wearing a straight military uniform. He has just returned from Berlin and has not returned to the front. The clothes are new clothes distributed by the Berlin Propaganda Department, which makes him look clean.

Of course, the two were transferred back from London to the Eastern Front, and they have not formally entered the war. The other person has just rested in Berlin for a while, so at this moment, the clothes on the two people are very decent and look like two male models Demonstration of military uniforms of German armored officers.

"The two of you, calling you and your car group, want you to test this new type of future tank here. This is an experimental product, please take it seriously." On the side is an old acquaintance of the science and technology experiment department. Colonel Demon, this scientific maniac can be described as a rare all-rounder in the German technical field, and he can even find his shadow in the design of new aircraft.

However, he is best at integrating the tank's engine and gearbox system to make the entire tank's walking mechanism more reliable and durable. He smiled at Rennes and Wittmann, then turned his head and looked at his men: "Open the canvas and let our two tanks take a look at our new weapons."

Hearing his orders, several SS soldiers carrying guns began to lift the canvas covered with huge tanks with all their hands, and when they were all opened, Rennes and Weitman were seen. This huge guy. The 6 pairs of load wheels look relatively wide. The body of the entire tank is generally lower than the tanks of various countries, but it is wider and slender.

The turret of the entire tank is a square turret similar to a tiger tank. The front is still a shield structure, but obviously this tank is slightly larger than the turret of the tiger tank, and a novel object that does not know what device is installed .

"The 105mm caliber artillery, the above is the model and the counterweight, because the real artillery is still in the experimental stage, and the final production line mass production model has not been completed." Colonel Demon pointed to the fake artillery on the turret slightly regretfully Tao: "And this tank is equipped with a stability adjustment device that allows the tank to aim and shoot while walking. This is a very great invention."

"Can you aim and shoot while traveling? Really?" Andre on the side was obviously surprised by the design and asked, "Is the accuracy the same as when parking?"

Colonel Demon cracked his mouth and smiled: "Of course it is different. This system is not as magical as you think. It is to provide an emergency plan that allows the tank to complete some of the aiming tasks while moving forward or backward. In this way, this device is already amazing. "

"What's the use of this thing?" The gunner in the Wittman car group frowned and asked, "If this thing doesn't allow us to fire the gun between the marches, wouldn't it be a useless device?"

"This stabilizer can ensure that when the tank is moving at a lower speed, it shoots the opponent under uncomplicated terrain conditions. In fact, this is the predecessor of a two-way stabilizer. We are experimenting with subsequent models." Demon thought I want to be honest: "At this stage we do n’t plan to put a lot of energy into the tank to equip this immature stabilizer, so only the test car is equipped with this device, and we canceled this thing on the mass production model. . "

Never use it if you are immature? It is still as cautious as ever and considering reliability and production links. Ryan smiled, thinking of the head of state who always regarded him as a child, and could not help shaking his head: "What else is good?"

"Actually, we are really ready to put into mass production, this is it!" De Meng really had good things hidden, he heard Ren's question, pointed his finger at a strange device on the turret, proudly said: "We The latest vehicle-mounted night vision system can detect infantry at a distance of 200 meters, and effectively judge enemy tank targets at a distance of 300 meters. "

"Night vision system? This is a very good idea, so that we can continue to fight at night." Ren froze, then nodded. By his side, Weitman seemed to prefer the device and kept looking up at the strange little device.

If the German panther tank and tiger tank are the same design concept, then this new tank is a newly designed super killing machine. The entire chassis uses a torsion bar suspension system, which saves space, is more reliable and convenient, and has better shock absorption performance.

The whole vehicle uses a new type of diesel engine, and the gearbox adopts a rear-mounted design that reduces the height of the body for the first time. Therefore, the overall body height of this tank has a significant drop compared with the mainstream tank height at this stage.

Wider tank tracks, better tank shock absorption. The chassis of this tank has indeed been completely completed, excluding the turret with more new technologies above. The entire chassis part of the tank uses more mature technology and is very easy to produce. This is the consistent style of Germany's current weapon system and the fundamental reason for the increasing number of German tanks.

The armor of the entire tank hardly came up with anything new, only a part of the bulletproof shape was changed. The thickness of the front armor of the tank was increased by 10 mm, and no other changes were made, so the weight of the entire tank was only 38 Tons only, did not add much weight. Therefore, the engine of this tank still uses the engine of the Tiger tank, which is only slightly improved.

"Driver, go for a lap, give it a try, and see how this tank is maneuverable." Weitman can't wait to say to his crew members: "It looks like this chassis is good, it is estimated that the power should also be very strong. . "

The power of this tank is similar to that of a Tiger tank, and its weight is similar. The only difference is that the center of gravity of the new tank is behind, and the details of the operation have changed a little bit. After Mr. Weitman's driver drove for a while, Bowman also conducted driving tests on the tank.

"A very good chassis, it feels good to drive, and it reacts more smoothly than a tiger tank when passing through the mud." Bowman praised the chassis performance of this tank when he jumped off the tank.

The main test here is the passing performance of the muddy pavement. Being able to get better test results, of course, are all happy. Everyone is evaluating the various performances of this tank, many useful suggestions and many unsatisfactory luxuries, but the surrounding staff are still constantly recording the feedback from these frontline soldiers.

For example, some tank crews hope that the thickness of the tank ’s armor will be thickened by about 20 mm, which will make people feel more secure, but this proposal will increase the weight of the entire tank by more than 5 tons, directly letting the weight of the new tank exceed 40 tons.

Other suggestions are relatively trivial, similar to the storage position of the shells inside the tank, the position of the button, and the placement of the individual self-defense weapons. These seemingly minor improvements are the experience summed up by soldiers who have escaped numerous deaths on the battlefield, and can allow many people to seize the last chance on the cruel battlefield and survive.

Of course, all questions should be summarized, re-graded in the design department and improved or rejected. Some good improvements will be reflected in the new tank, and some unnecessary directions will be cut or even canceled.

"Really change the 105mm caliber cannon?" The person most concerned about the caliber of the shell was not Andre, but the loader Marcus. This burly man is most sensitive to changes in the caliber of the artillery, because each shell is propelled by his hand. In a small tank space, he can even distinguish the type of shells by the slight changes transmitted by the palm of his hand. .

"Yes!" Colonel Demon nodded. "We want to make sure that you can penetrate anything you want to penetrate."
