Chapter 98: Small Money

The Tyrannosaurus was furious when he saw that Minerva had used such a "sword cut" to offset his own shell. Google search reading

Now it was no longer busy chasing Luger, but lifted its tail and fired another shot at Minerva who had just landed.

Then came the second and third shots.

Speaking of 88mm tank guns, you often see words such as Kwk36L/56 and Kwk43L/71.

The former is the gun used by the famous Tiger heavy tank Tiger I, and the latter is used on the Tiger II, the Tiger King heavy tank.

Kwk and the numbers after it can be regarded as their model numbers, similar to the 81-type rifle and the 95-type rifle.

Usually this number is related to the actual year of construction or the year it was issued to the troops for use.

For example, Kwk36 is inherited from the prototype gun Flak36, which means it was first put into service in 1936. Kwk43 is similar.

But this is a habit, not a standard requirement, so there are actually special cases. For example, the earliest Flak18 in this series does not follow this rule.

As for the L+ number after the number, it refers to the caliber of the gun.

Kwk36/L56 means that this gun is 56 times the caliber, and its barrel length is 56 times the caliber of 88mm, about 4928mm, nearly five meters long.

Kwk43/L71 is 71 times the caliber, with a length of 6248mm, which is obviously more than one meter longer than the former. So the latter is usually called a long 88, and the former is a short 88.

The barrel is long, similar to the barrel of a gun. The work done by the gunpowder to push the warhead is high, and the kinetic energy given to the warhead is high.

The high kinetic energy of the warhead means that the penetration is strong under the same caliber and mass.

The gun on the tail of the metal Tyrannosaurus is more like a short 88 gun.

The reason why I use "like" is because the gun barrel exposed outside is far less than five meters long, at most it is about two meters long.

Most of the structure of the gun is buried in the thick tail.

It seems that because of this, the tail has also strengthened the automatic loading of the gun, and the firing rate is more than doubled than the original ten rounds per minute.

Take the three shells it just fired in succession, the interval is only more than one second, less than two seconds.

Calculated, it seems to be able to reach 35 or even 40 rounds per minute.

This firing rate would be insufficient for a small-caliber rapid-fire gun, but it would be too terrifying for a medium-caliber 88mm.

After all, this is a cannon, not a rapid-fire mortar.

Only when Minerva held her breath and used "sword cutting" several times in a row to directly block the flying shells, she was not swallowed by the large fragments created by the continuous shells.

But concentrating on splitting the fast-flying shells several times in a row and failing to trigger the impact fuse on top also consumed his energy extremely.

Minerva, who was full of energy just now, became a little sluggish again.

Ruger was not idle either. He took advantage of the few seconds to quickly aim the gun muzzle at the metal Tyrannosaurus and fired a few armor-piercing shells.

But the armor-piercing shells in his hand did not seem to penetrate the heavy armor of this guy, and there was no reaction at all.

If there is any reason, it can only be that the 88mm gun fired four shells in a row, but it did not fire the fifth shell for a long time.

But Ruger did not think that was the result of his armor-piercing shells.

It was more like the modified 88 tank gun could only fire four rounds rapidly.

It was like a rapid-fire mortar howitzer with a magazine.

"Damn, copying my design!"

Ruger cursed inwardly, but immediately turned around and continued firing.

Nothing else, while the tail gun was loading, the metal Tyrannosaurus stretched out two front claw guns and fired at Ruger.

He was just cursing. The design of the magazine-fed rapid-fire gun was definitely not copied by Guimei, but Guimei probably didn't copy him either.

After all, although the magazine-fed rapid-fire gun technology used by Ruger was greatly improved by him, it was generally from the "Cornflower".

This is a rapid-fire mortar of the former Soviet Union.

Although it was put into service later, in the 1970s, it is said that it was designed as early as 1946.

Although the World War II arsenal occupied by Guimei should not have that specific technology, they have fought with the local modern army in the 21st century, and may have encountered something to learn from.

What's more, Ruger didn't see the real situation of the internal feeding mechanism of the gun, and it might not use the same principle.

He said that just to vent.

Vent the frustration of being frightened by the terrifying firing rate of its gun.

Fortunately, after shouting this, his mind became clearer.

Remembering that he still had a helper, he hurriedly shouted again, "Simba, go find the weakness of that guy."

"Okay~"

At his command, the obedient old chatterbox ejected again.

Ruger dodged and continued to run to the cave entrance, while persuading the female warrior to retreat and secretly planning.

In his opinion, the gun on the car no longer dared to use high-pressure ammunition, for fear of exploding due to hidden injuries.

And if it could only use mortar ammunition, it would not be enough to deal with the metal Tyrannosaurus.

In addition, he had recovered a lot of good things on the ground before, and the points in his wallet had successfully reached four digits, so he could make some new weapons.

Should we just build a main battle tank, or use an anti-tank rocket launcher or something like that?

Or replace the Honey Badger tank with the main anti-tank weapon originally designed, the Dow anti-tank missile?

This thing should be powerful enough. The static armor penetration can be simply understood as the theoretical upper limit, which is 1000mm.

The dynamic armor penetration is also 300mm/65 degrees, which is the average value in actual combat.

Even if it can't hit the target with one shot, try a few more times, especially referring to the distribution of the weaknesses of the metal Tyrannosaurus that Lao Quzao can bring back later, it is still very likely to kill it.

However, this is a missile with a guided function.

Although the Dow uses a wire-controlled guidance, the related electronic equipment will not be too little.

Ruger had just confirmed that the Ghost was short of electronic chips and other materials, so he naturally couldn't recover many electronic components from the defeated Ghost Legion.

If this part was purchased directly with points, his more than 1,000 points seemed to be unable to buy a few Dow anti-tank missiles.

Thinking of this, he simply opened the system store panel to find the thing. After a closer look, it was really not cheap at all.

A set of launchers plus two rounds of ammunition cost 900 points, and each additional round of ammunition after that cost 600 points.

But there is a discount for buying more than 4 rounds at a time, 10% off. Ten rounds can be discounted by 20%.

And Ruger used the recycled materials as coupons to discount, which only made the basic price 30% off.

The more than 1,000 points he had were just enough to buy a set of launchers and three missiles.

"Alas! I'm still poor!"

He really didn't expect that after a series of hard battles, he finally broke through the 1,000-point mark. Just when he felt like a rich man, he was hit hard by reality.

"Make money, make money!"

At this moment, he suddenly didn't want to rely on the narrow underground passage to avoid that guy.

He wanted to kill that thing and exchange it for money!
