Chapter 1405

The main gun sighting position, calibrated in advance according to the three-hundred-meter scale, was already ready. The huge steel body with a total combat weight of 60 tons, the violent jolts caused by the moment it stopped instantly spread throughout the world. All around the car, even the thick and slender 122mm heirloom gun barrel was bumping and shaking.

Iushkin's left hand continued to hold the handwheel of the high and low machine, and his right hand had already reached the firing lever of the main gun. He was waiting, waiting for the gun body to completely stop and stop shaking. He was absolutely sure that he could charge the gun with power in the barrel. The hooded armor-piercing bullet that was about to be fired was sure to hit with one hit, and was firmly stuck on the face of the German guy on the opposite side.

It didn't take long for this moment to arrive. At most, it took less than two seconds after the car came to a complete stop.

"Death, you bastard dog!"

People tend to say a catchphrase habitually when adrenaline is soaring. This is the same as later generations doing wonderful operations and adding a saucy saying when playing games. For example, a well-known anchor said "I did it on the spot." Eat this computer screen.”

The firing lever of the main gun was pulled down instantly by the right hand, driving the breech firing pin to create an instant mechanical chain reaction.

The primer propellant in the cartridge case is instantly ignited and converted into violently burning chemical energy that rushes forward and spurts out in the barrel. The huge 122 mm full-caliber armor-piercing projectile also surged forward violently under this effect, roaring out of the densely rifled barrel in a spiral and stable flight attitude, accompanied by a huge muzzle blast. With fire and flames.

The recoil of the 122 Heirloom is so great that the dual-chamber muzzle brake, which is designed to be efficient and can reduce the recoil by more than 60%, cannot completely offset this huge recoil.

The IS4 heavy tank, with a total combat weight of a staggering 60 tons, shuddered and trembled violently the moment it fired. Even the cold steel tracks dragged in the mud moved backward slightly, screaming with the wind. The body of the armor-piercing projectile whizzing towards the target at extremely high speed is even more unstoppable!

Iushkin's self-confidence is not groundless or unreliable. With the blessing of absolute strength, Iushkin is qualified to give himself absolute self-confidence without any problems.

On the precise sighting line of the gun scope that had been calibrated for a distance of 300 meters in advance, Iushkin, whose right eye was always staring at the target through the main gun sight, could see that the armor-piercing projectiles fired by his own hands were indeed It really hit the target and penetrated the soul with one shot, perfectly achieving the optimal strike effect as expected.

The 122mm hooded armor-piercing projectile accurately hit the right face of the King Tiger turret with strong armor-piercing kinetic energy. The mere 180mm physical thickness and inclination angle are almost equivalent to no homogeneous steel protective armor that can be ignored, which is simply not enough to offset it. After receiving such a ferocious attack, he was stabbed on the spot by a 122 armor-piercing bullet that shattered the hood.

There are no accidents, and there are no unnecessary other possibilities.

In order to facilitate quick loading, the King Tiger crew that filled the first ready-to-fire ammunition rack on the back of the turret with 88mm fixed-load ammunition will eventually end up because of its own behavior that may not be called "stupid". And pay a heavy price.

The warhead of the projectile has a large charge, which is comparable to the 122 armor-piercing projectile of a small-caliber high-explosive projectile. After penetrating the armor, the armor-piercing delayed fuse was successfully triggered and exploded on the spot.

The raging storm of flames carries the fiery projectile fragments and rushes through the narrow turret space, destroying everything around it.

The first ammunition rack at the rear end of the turret, which was only sixty centimeters away, naturally became the target of the explosion.

A total of 14 custom-made 88mm artillery shells placed on it were quickly turned into rocket propellant for the launch of the "Deutsche Aerospace".

Of course, the King Tiger's turret, which has an overly heavy head, is not as easy to be thrown away instantly as a small-headed son like the Black Panther.

However, even if the Tiger King is thick-skinned and fleshy, it is inevitable that the back of his head will be blown open and half of his Tianling Cap will be removed on the spot. If we were to compare it to a human being, it would be similar to U.S. President John F. Kennedy, who was blown away by Oswald's shot. In short, he had a "skylight" opened in his head.

The entire rear half of the turret was almost blown away, and the final result was that with a loud noise and flames, it turned into a steel incinerator burning with scalding flames and spitting out burnt black smoke. The corpse furnace and even the tracks arranged on both sides of the car body were broken into several sections by the strong explosion impact, and that was all.

The death of the first King Tiger is just the beginning

As more Stalin heavy tanks entered the effective penetration distance of the last 300 meters, the German Tiger King's already negligible armor confrontation advantage was completely offset, and it was even enough to be called a reverse reversal.

It is true that the weak points of both the King Tiger and the IS6 are on the front of the turret and near the gun root. However, the front of the turret of the IS6 can penetrate the weak point area, which is obviously much smaller than the fat and big pie face of the King Tiger.

Considering the final state of the battle between the two sides at this moment, they are all stationary and firing at each other, refusing to give in to each other. The IS6 heavy tank, which has a huge advantage in both quantity and armor resistance, is clearly superior to the King Tiger and has superior combat power.

When dealing with the IS6 heavy tank cluster in a moving state, the German armored soldiers, who were still feeling good about themselves, soon felt the huge pressure coming towards them like a mountain bearing down on them.

Boom boom boom boom——

The King Tigers, intent on fighting to the end for the slim hope of the battlefield, kept firing. The 88mm capped armor-piercing bullets that came out of the barrel hit the front armor of the enemy tank's turret one after another. But there are still only a few that can achieve actual and impressive results.

What is even more sad is that because of the lack of actual combat experience against this new enemy heavy tank, many of the gunners of the King Tiger crew are fighting against the IS6 for the first time, based entirely on the fact that "the enemy's weakness is in the gun root." In battle, the cannonballs just hit the base of the cannon without thinking about whether it was left or right.

The final result derived from this is that the IS6 heavy tanks, which stand majestically like rocks in the sea, suffered far less losses than the Germans in the crazy battle under close fire.

On the contrary, the Tiger Kings, whose weaknesses could be summed up in a simple sentence, were beaten in a miserable state. One or two of them were punched through the face by the continuous bombardment of 122 armor-piercing bullets. The result was an extremely tragic result of being killed on the spot.
