Chapter 2527

Can it also improve protection? So cool? ? ?

A single piece of composite armor plate was installed on the left and right sides of the launch box, replacing the original trial version of the rolled homogeneous steel armor plate. This was enough to excite Malashenko.

This at least means that the German's small iron fist and the angle of incidence are not correct, or that the armor-piercing tank-killer rocket launcher cannot chew the TOS-1 launch box. Compared with traditional homogeneous steel armor, the anti-armor penetration effect of composite armor at the same weight is greatly improved by multiples, which is so refreshing.

But now, Kogin told Malashenko that this improvement in protective performance is only part of it. I have other protection improvements that I haven’t told you. Malashenko’s current state can only be described as “ecstasy.” To describe it, I can't wait to know what kind of medicine Ke Jing is selling in this gourd.

"You mentioned to me in your letter before that the Germans are still constantly upgrading the power of their infantry anti-tank weapons. The latest Panzerfaust 100 can already be seen on a large scale on the battlefield. And the information confessed by the prisoners of war and Judging from the seized documents, the enemy also has more powerful infantry anti-tank weapons that are being developed and tested, and I have written them all down.”

"We obtained the Tekken 100 sample captured on the front line and sent back to the rear for research, and after conducting target shooting tests, we concluded that even though composite armor was laid on the TOS-1 box, the thickness of the armor itself was not strong enough. There is still a relatively high penetration expectation when using the Iron Fist 100 to bombard armored targets, which is obviously unacceptable.”

"We cannot pin our expectations for effective defense on the fact that the Nazi soldiers holding Panzerfausts to bombard the TOS-1 launch box were holding Panzerfaust 30 and Panzerfaust 60 instead of Panzerfaust 100. This kind of unrealistic confrontation The enemy's expectations are irresponsible to our own soldiers."

"As you said, this is not only a taboo for our frontline commanders, I think it is also a taboo for our rear military R\u0026D leaders. As a team leader, we cannot make such a serious mistake."

"So I advocated setting aside a protection upgrade design. A complete set of external additional armor installation locks were arranged on the left and right armor plates of the mass-produced TOS-1 launch box. Although it looks like there are just some inconspicuous metal extra It’s just a structural piece, and it’s all a bit ugly, but trust me, you’ll be grateful to have this upgrade provision when you need it.”

"Another problem is that installing more protective armor will inevitably affect mobility. This is an objective law that cannot be helped. There are gains and losses."

"But thanks to the power system of IS6, which is much stronger than the IS2 body chassis, it can output much more horsepower than the trial version TOS-1 of the IS2 body chassis. So even if the entire set of external additional armor is calculated, With the added weight, we believe that the mass-produced TOS-1 still has stronger maneuverability than the trial version, and its speed will only be improved rather than slower than the trial version. "

"If you want to thank us, just thank us for the design efforts we put into the IS6 project together. This is the unexpected additional benefit that the small saplings we planted before grew into towering trees. Who could have imagined that one day What will happen now? Fortunately, you and I, together with many comrades, have designed IS6 well enough.”

"As for how to use it reasonably on the battlefield, this is what you need to consider and decide. In a combat environment far away from the enemy, you can carry out higher-mobility operations without carrying additional armor. If you want to fight with the enemy in close quarters, , engage in street fighting, and the protection gain brought by installing a complete set of additional armor is definitely very cost-effective compared to the slightly reduced mobility. "

"Anyway, you don't need high-speed racing in street fighting, am I right? Comrade Division Commander."

Facing Ke Jing's smiling question, he already took the initiative to step forward and reached out to touch the TOS-1's cold but powerful launch box side armor. He deeply felt that Ke Jing was very good at this project. Malashenko, who had worked hard, couldn't help but replied with gratitude.

"It's hard to imagine how exaggerated the German guy's expression would be when he took the iron fist and risked his life to go around to the side, aim at the launch box, and then only left a black mark."

"I can't think of any better design improvement than this. You have improved almost all the problems we found on the prototype, and the two most troublesome weaknesses have been targeted and improved. This Next, it will be the turn of those scumbags to have a headache amidst the sound of destruction, assuming they really still have time and can feel the headache."

According to Kojing's introduction, when the side armor of the TOS-1 launch box is fully protected, the defense system formed is "the outer layer of homogeneous steel + rubber interlayer + inner layer of homogeneous steel of the modular additional armor plate" + Box base side armor outer layer of homogeneous steel + rubber interlayer + inner layer of homogeneous steel", a total of 6 layers of composite defense.

Oh, no, if you include the air gap layer between the additional armor of the plug-in module and the basic armor, which is not intentionally designed but does exist, it can also slightly disperse the metal jet to a certain extent and improve the armor-piercing resistance, then This totals 7 composite defenses.

There is a fact that is very scary for Germans.

Not to mention Iron Fist and Tank Killer, it is difficult to shake this level of composite defense. Even if you pull out a barrel artillery and aim at the armor-breaking bullet and blast it directly, you may not be able to break through the TOS-1 when it is fully loaded. The side defense of the launch box.

After all, the armor-piercing depth of artillery-fired armor-piercing projectiles also depends on the amount of charge, and the amount of charge in the warhead of the projectile is directly related to the diameter of the projectile, that is, the caliber of the artillery. It is also known that you German guy likes high-power and small-caliber. The small water pipe was aimed directly at the artillery piece. In the project of shooting armor-piercing projectiles, it has inherent shortcomings and has been restrained. There is really no advantage in terms of power attributes.

So you want to cut through the side armor of the TOS-1 launch box when it is fully loaded?

Move the armor-piercing weapon slightly to the side and find a barrel artillery that is powerful enough to penetrate the armor.

What? There is no protection on the front of the launch box. Is it the same or a weakness?

You first count how many Germans dare to face the front of the TOS-1 launch box, where 16 rocket nests are as thick and numerous as a hornet's nest before they run away. Being faced directly by this thing, you can't even run away. How dare you fight with the small water pipe, mop stick and 310mm giant bomb in your hand? There is no such way to find death in another dimension.

"Very good, perfect! To be honest, I can't wait to see her conquer the Nazis. Those German guys in Berlin will definitely like her. I guarantee that those who don't like her will never have any chance to speak."
