Chapter 217: The new tank is really exciting

Kong Aiguo got into the tank.

The main body has not changed. It is still the previous hull and turret. The turret is still very crowded. To become a tank soldier, one of the necessary conditions is to be small.

However, the tank gun and the sighting device have been replaced.

Fortunately, these devices are all domestic products, so the labels on them are all Chinese characters. Kong Aiguo looked at the instrument in front of him, and the infrared imaging night vision device was clearly marked on it.

The prototype of the 59 tank is the T-55 from Xiong Country. This tank is capable of night combat, using infrared headlights.

Ordinary headlights emit visible light, illuminating the road ahead, so that people can see the road clearly, and then move on.

The infrared headlights emit infrared rays.

What is infrared? When you are close to the radiator, you can feel the heat flow. This heat flow is infrared radiation. The wavelength of infrared is longer than visible light and cannot be seen by the naked eye. Its significant effect is heat.

Infrared headlights, the infrared rays emitted by the headlights shine in front, and will be reflected when they encounter obstacles, but they will not be received by the naked eye and can only be received by special receivers.

Both the cockpit and the turret of the tank have this kind of receiving device. When the driver sees it, he can touch the dark and open the tank. Although it is not as clear as during the day, it can be roughly seen. The people in the turret saw it. Can fight at night.

At the same time, this is also the most common night vision device in this era. It is an active infrared device because it actively emits infrared rays.

This thing, in actual combat, is very dangerous. If there is a tank on the opposite side, then the other side’s infrared receiver may receive the light from the infrared headlights here and expose itself, that clear infrared headlight. The bright spot is the best target indicator.

In later desert wars, the party equipped with infrared headlights was often beaten in this way.

Infrared headlights are already outdated and advanced. They are all infrared night vision devices, which rely entirely on capturing the spontaneous infrared rays of the outside world to observe and are passive devices.

However, even with the backward infrared headlights, the 59 tank is not equipped, because the industrial basis is not available, so the 59 tank is a tank that cannot fight at night.

Of course, this is a bit one-sided. Although there is no infrared night vision device, the soldiers can fight under the moonlight after rigorous training.

And now, in the turret, there is one more infrared thermal imaging camera. Compared to later generations, this is still an extremely simple model, but now, it is definitely an existence against the sky.

Kong Aiguo turned on the switch of the instrument. After a few seconds of warming up, his eyes were fixed, and everything around him suddenly became green.

Infrared, there is no color, only the green light of the fluorescent screen is displayed, but the outline of everything around is still clear.

When he saw everything around him clearly, Kong Aiguo immediately became excited: "Attention, turn on the switch of the infrared imaging night vision device, use this night vision device to travel, and turn off the headlights!"

The easiest way to walk at night is to turn on the lights. However, for the military, turning on the lights is quite inappropriate. Now, you don't need to turn on the lights. With this infrared night vision device, you can clearly see the road!

The driver in front has already started the rear engine. Since the power system has not undergone any improvement, he is familiar with the road.

Along with the sound of compressed air scoffing, the peculiar diesel fuel injection sound came from the tail, and then the engine started.

The driver was taken aback for a moment, this engine seems to be replaced with a new one?

After being flushed with time and space energy, after the exchange, it has automatically returned to the factory state. At this time, the 520-horsepower V-shaped 12-cylinder diesel engine is roaring.

Step on the accelerator, put the gear into gear, and Tan Kronlon started to move. Sure enough, the speed up and everything were faster than before, just like when it left the factory!

The driver is completely confident. This kind of engine is only enjoyable when it is started.

At this time, the engine of the tank has already exceeded 500 horsepower, and the heavy-duty truck project that Qin Guan established with his own hand has only two or three hundred horsepower. Then, can the tank engine be directly introduced?

Of course not. First, the tank engine is super fuel-consuming, and heavy trucks for civilian use need to be economical. Second, the tank engine is a kind of squeezing engine potential. The current 59 tank has an engine life of only 500 hours.

The engine of the new tank can be built!

The others also realized that at this time, tanks lined up and left the parking place, using night vision goggles to drive in at high speed.

The reconnaissance company is already ahead.

There are many particulars in the battle of tank troops. In fact, no matter what the battle is, the discovery of the enemy is the first thing. If one can spot the enemy in advance, it can completely avoid the enemy's forward, go around from the side, and finally go around. Go to the back of the opponent and beat him.

This kind of tactics existed during World War II. Scouts at that time rode motorcycles and crossed assaults in the wilderness to find the enemy's trail.

And now, the tank unit of the Han State is organized in this way. A tank regiment has a reconnaissance company, and a tank division has a reconnaissance battalion.

The reconnaissance company is equipped with 10 Type 62 light tanks.

Tank troops are marching in the field. Therefore, tracked tanks are the best choice. At the same time, the reconnaissance company does not require much combat, mainly relying on mobility. Therefore, light tanks are an inevitable choice. .

The appearance looks similar to 59, but it weighs only 21 tons, and runs swoosh.

Now, these light tanks have formed a line in front, heading in the direction where the shock just happened.

The track was crushing the grass, and the vibration from the ground caused the sleeping prairie animals to escape their burrows one after another. Several white rabbits were running fast and jumping back and forth.

Suddenly, the white rabbit’s front legs stepped on the air, and it rolled and rolled down.

This is its home. It is familiar with everything here. When did a big hole suddenly appear? Why don't you know?

The white rabbit rolled down to the bottom of the pit and was dizzy. At this time, the 62 tanks in front also discovered the situation.

"Brake!" There was a sharp brake sound, and the braking of the tank was also very overbearing.

The captain of the tank jumped down and looked at the big pit in front of him. He was amazed. It looked like a big pit that a meteor fell and hit?

Too strange.

The vibration just now should be here.

"Block the scene and wait for the experts to arrive." The company commander of the reconnaissance company shouted.

Soon, the 59 tanks at the back also came up, forming a circle outside. Kong Aiguo reported to the superior on the radio, and found an unknown big pit, suddenly appeared!
