Chapter 2535 What kind of precious thing is this?

After reading the entire technical document, Malashenko finally understood why you, the German, used such a high warhead charge.

One thing we all know is that the Germans in history did not use radio proximity fuse technology until they were defeated.

This advanced fuze, which is very easy to use and can exponentially increase the anti-aircraft interception efficiency of anti-aircraft guns, in this timeline that has been tampered with by Malashenko's butterfly effect, actually belongs to the United States just like the original history. An exclusive "high technology" that Santoku does not have.

But this not only affected the combat efficiency of the German anti-aircraft guns, but also gave rise to another equally painful problem.

The German anti-aircraft missiles did not have suitable fuses. Although they could continue to track and fly in the direction of the target, the lack of available proximity fuses made the theoretical kill rate of anti-aircraft missiles extremely low.

In this case, if you really want to cause effective damage to the Allied bombers, you must make a collision with actual physical contact.

But this is actually no easy task.

Although the bomber is huge, it seems to be easy to hit, but it is such a small black dot flying in the high altitude. Under the relatively high-speed movement of the missile and the bomber, if you want to accurately hit the collision, trigger the impact fuse and detonate the warhead charge to shoot down. Goal, this process that sounds simple is actually very difficult to do.

The Germans have not developed reliable enough seeker technology for self-seeking missiles. It is almost a fantasy to use anti-aircraft missiles with collision fuses to intercept high-altitude targets.

There is no radio proximity fuse technology that can allow missiles to automatically detonate when they fly within the killing range. The two paths that can allow anti-aircraft missiles to play an effective air defense role and increase the air-to-air kill rate to an acceptable range are unavailable. So what should we do? Woolen cloth?

The German designer who led the project came up with a crooked idea: transmitting electrical signals through the flight control wires that are physically connected to the missile to trigger the electric guidance signal, thereby detonating the warhead charge and damaging the missile when it is intended to detonate. enemy plane.

In fact, this does not fundamentally solve the problem. You must know that the only effective way for the Germans to observe bombers is visual observation from the ground. Even with the blessing of advanced optical channels with high magnification zoom, it is still "more advanced vision" to put it bluntly. .

This means that after the missile is launched, the Germans must use continuous visual tracking to determine whether it is close to the effective killing radius of the enemy bomber, and then transmit an electrical signal to the missile at the appropriate time to detonate the warhead charge. Thereby destroying the enemy bomber with a "big explosion in the face".

The biggest problem with this approach is that it is difficult to judge whether the missile is close enough to the enemy bomber formation by human eyesight alone.

The enemy bombers in the optical channel are just small black dots, missiles? Not to mention missiles.

If it weren't for the fire-breathing butt of the missile, you might not even know where the flying missile is. It's even more nonsense to judge the flying height of the missile in real time and then decide whether to detonate. The Germans these days don't have fire control in their hands. Is it possible for a computer to still rely on hand calculations to calculate the real-time dynamic height of a missile and then decide whether to detonate? Don’t really ask too many nonsense questions.

Just like many of the Germans' doomsday weapons, this anti-aircraft missile had problems with its design from the beginning, and many design concepts were immature, so it was forced to start research and development. Then the trial production of test bombs was started before the research and development had gone through a complete reliability demonstration. It is obvious that the Germans regard this thing as a life-saving straw.

But in any case, the Germans have at least achieved the "controllable" active detonation power. It is no longer the missile that is fired out and stabbed upwards like an iron rod. If it fails to hit, it will not explode completely. Therefore, theoretically speaking, it has indeed achieved a great progress and deserves recognition.

Then, the Germans, whose technology tree became more and more crooked, began to follow the wrong path and continue to solve the next problem on this crooked path.

The Germans knew the problem and the weakness. They understood that trying to judge the flying height of the missile by sight and whether it was close enough to the height of the bomber formation was actually a very nonsense thing and it was easy to misjudge, even if there were repeated tests in hand. It is nonsense to use the missile launch table with various paths and launch angles as a reference.

In order to increase the missile's kill rate, the Germans came up with another simple and crude method: hard-stacking a huge amount of warhead charges to increase the effective kill radius.

According to the idea of ​​the German designer, as long as my warhead has enough charges and the effective kill radius is large enough, then even if the error distance of manual detonation based on visual judgment is relatively large, it will be no problem. Who allows me to have a large explosion coverage? A large enough explosion range can solve the accuracy problem, and the "godlike" German designer firmly believes in this.

So there was the valuable thing that Malashenko encountered on the battlefield.

In addition to the extremely limited fuel section and engine in a missile, plus the wire-controlled seeker part, the other parts of the huge missile are all "precision guided missiles" with warhead charges.

Oh, it's still an aerial bomb with a powered section, not an ordinary unpowered inertial iron bomb.

To be honest, no matter how you say it, think it, or understand it, the birth of such a thing is already enough of a performance art. The whole body is full of shortcomings and problems of "making do, making do, and coping with errands". There is no doubt that it is a valuables. This is the best ironclad evidence that your Sandezi's brain was somewhat messed up when the end was approaching.

And using this thing to fight tanks is even more of a "precious thing among valuables" behavior.

After listening to Malashenko's detailed explanation, Kotin couldn't believe his ears.

How crazy are you Germans? Military research and development is a discipline that pays attention to logical rigor, science, and down-to-earthness. The German guy turned it into a "Renaissance-style performance art." Who knows the last time human beings were so crazy about the research on their own creations? What year is it?

It's also possible that you, the German, have really achieved something "unprecedented". As for whether there will be any "comers" in the future, I don't know.

"So, this is a chemical anti-tank weapon that doesn't even have a shaped charge cover, can't produce metal jets, and completely abandons the principle of chemical energy armor-breaking weapons? It's this thing that uses 101 kilograms of warhead charges to smash it. Smashed the most powerful IS7 heavy tank in service in the Soviet Red Army? "

Looking at Kogin's expression of extreme disbelief, even embarrassment, the only thing Malashenko could do was nod.

"Swear to Comrade Stalin, God. I really hope that these Nazi Germans can be destroyed quickly. They are simply tainting the creation of mankind and the science of war."
