The Third Reich

Chapter 101: 10-wheel truck

   As long as you look at the organization of tank divisions, you can know that for a tank division, there are more than 100 tanks less than 300 tanks, and thousands of cars are needed!

   Take the German army's establishment, an armored division also needs two thousand trucks! The United States is even more perverted. An ordinary American infantry division can be equipped with two thousand vehicles!

   And in Germany, most of the armored divisions are dissatisfied!

   Therefore, in order to win, Germany had to use a large number of horses for logistics transportation. For example, during the invasion of the Soviet Union, Germany used at least 500,000 horses!

   When the frontline mechanized troops are advancing, the fuel supply behind them is transported by horse-drawn carts. This is quite primitive and backward!

   The German mechanized army must be equipped with a large number of trucks!

How to do?

   In addition to domestic production, another way, of course, is to cooperate with the world! Ford is the best choice!

   With the personal relationship between the old Ford and Hitler, and the consciousness of a businessman, setting up a factory in Germany is the best choice!

You must know that capitalists are all chasing profits. In the subsequent World War II, Ford cars were not only available in Germany, but also in island countries. Because of this, Ford was also criticized by the media after World War II, but this was a post-war. Words.

And now, Cyrick proposed to Old Ford the idea of ​​setting up a factory in Germany. Old Ford almost didn't hesitate, and immediately agreed: "Establishing a factory in Germany can better sell Ford cars throughout Europe. Of course No problem. What type of truck are we making?"

   "The 3-ton G-type Ford 917T truck will be produced in advance. After that, it will gradually transition to the production of new ten-wheel trucks, ten-ton trucks, all-wheel drive." Cyric said, he has already thought about these.

   In World War II, it was also an era when all kinds of military trucks shined brightly. The United States relied on its strong industrial capacity to produce tens of thousands of trucks, and could even support the Soviet Union with tens of thousands.

   In trucks, an important indicator is the load capacity, and this is always changing.

For later generations, a Changan Star with an approved load of 0.5 tons can still run with 2 tons of cargo, while a six-axle semi-trailer with a load of 55 tons can be pulled to 150 tons, or even 200 tons, no problem. of.

   However, these are the results of driving on a flat road! If you are going to the wild, there is not even any road, these cars, empty cars can pass by it is not bad!

The load capacity of a truck is not dead, it fluctuates with changes in road conditions and the environment. The load capacity on flat and thick highways is definitely greater than that on rugged roads, and the transportation volume of short- and medium-distance transportation is of course greater than that of transnational transportation. The deadweight for long-distance transportation.

   Take the main force during World War II as an example. The German Opel Lightning truck weighed 2.5 tons, but the nuclear load was 3 tons; the US CCKW truck weighed 5.4 tons, but only 2.5 tons.

  Is American technology backward? of course not!

   Germany’s Opel Lightning Truck is a civilian vehicle. The weight of the nuclear load is determined by comparison with the nuclear load under normal conditions, that is, the domestic medium and short-distance transportation and good road conditions. Therefore, although its own weight is only 2.5 tons, 4 wheels 2 drive, single drive shaft, but it has a nuclear load of 3 tons.

   The American CCKW truck is a military truck that was put into production in response to the war. In order to adapt to the complex environment of the battlefield and long-distance long-distance transportation, the CCKW truck has a 6-wheel 6-wheel drive, dual-drive axle, a stronger structure and a thicker chassis!

  In other words, the German Opel Lightning Truck is only a civilian road vehicle, while the American truck is designed to deal with the worst road conditions.

  In this way, the carrying capacity of the German Opel Lightning truck in war can only be compared with the 1.5-ton nuclear truck of the US military.

   The current development must be based on the future. Due to the serious shortage of domestic manufacturers' production capacity, Ford entered Germany and set up factories, and will first produce cars for military use!

  These trucks are definitely just those bad civilian models!

   3 ton G Ford 917T Ford truck, this is a model produced at full speed after Ford set up a manufacturing plant in Germany in history. From the outside, this model has a rounded shape and stamped fenders. It's the same as the oldest car ever seen.

   This kind of car has a total weight of 5830 kg, a load of 3310 kg, and a crew of 2 people. It uses a Ford 3.9-liter V-8 engine with a power of 95 horsepower. On the road, it can reach kilometers per hour at the fastest.

   However, these are only for civilian use after all. In peacetime, the transportation of materials on the road is okay~www.ltnovel.com~ In wartime, it is absolutely inappropriate!

   ten-wheel truck is the most suitable for military use!

   There is a single wheel in the front and two side-by-side wheels in the back. All of them are drive axles. In this way, it is not only possible to drive on highways, but also on bad roads, even when there is no road!

  Moreover, this ten-ton truck can be said to be the current Big Mac. It can carry personnel and can consign various cannons. It has a wide range of uses and is the most suitable choice!

   Ten-ton level, all-wheel drive! Hearing what Cyric said, the old Ford was taken aback. It can be said that this type of truck has not even been produced by Ford now!

This ten-ton class, of course, refers to the total weight of the car body and cargo of ten tons. This is the loading capacity under harsh conditions. If you load a twenty to thirty tons on these high-grade roads just built in Germany, there is no problem. !

   All-wheel drive, each wheel is powered, can meet any driving road, has a good off-road capability, in addition to trucks, Cyric of course has other plans.

   Wheeled infantry fighting vehicle!

In the case of limited resources in Germany, Germany first carried out the production of tanks to form mechanized troops, and in the later stage, it will definitely continue to develop accompanying forces. In addition to tracked armored personnel carriers, of course, there are also wheeled ones. Infantry fighting vehicle!

   If you are better than off-road capability, your wheeled infantry fighting vehicle is definitely not a tracked opponent, but the wheeled fighting vehicle has a big advantage, that is, it saves fuel! With the same fuel, the travel of a wheeled tank will be twice that of a tracked tank!

   At the same time, the wheeled type is simple to maintain, easy to operate, and low cost. You can see it in later generations. All countries have begun to vigorously eliminate tracked tanks and switch to wheeled tanks.
