Chapter 399: The Beasts of Bavaria III
"Man, it's time for you to play. Whether you can raise your salary this year depends on the demonstration!" Maybach patted Mike on the shoulder to show encouragement. Afterwards, the old engineer and his staff started the tank personally. When the diesel engine suddenly emitted a puff of smoke, the big guy finally moved! In the eyes of the prince, that posture is no different from an honest tractor!
"What is the difference between this breakthrough tank No. 1 and No. 2?" Prince Leopold frowned slightly as he watched the No. 2 car gradually moving in the distance. "In my opinion, the car body is almost the same, one with a turret and the other without a turret."
"You are right, uncle. This is a site with two sets of weapons. Plan 1 has a 50mm artillery that can rotate 360 degrees. It fires 1.75kg shells. Plan 2 is equipped with a 75mml24 short-barreled howitzer. "The Prince explained.
"Really? This number 2 is interesting." The prince nodded in satisfaction.
"Attention, you are our first target at 11 o'clock. Walk steadily. Go around the crater and don't touch the wires. The brothers who attacked the tank just made a fool of yourself." But at this time, sitting in the tank Mike and his crew were not so relaxed. While observing the situation outside through the commander’s control tower on the top of the battle room, he commanded the driver to avoid various obstacles. The noise in the car was so loud. , Need gesture assistance. It is even necessary to tap the car body with a wrench so that the dizzy driver can pay attention to his commands.
"Okay, stop, and prepare to attack the first target!" Following Mike's order, the huge chariot slammed into it, and then the gunner immediately found a sandbag-built bunker in his vision. The distance was about 600 meters, and the experienced gunner quickly estimated the distance between the two sides by visual inspection.
"Try to shoot at the target first!" Adjusted the artillery slightly, and then used the zoom function on the scope to firmly say that the target is placed in the middle of the crosshairs, and further fine-tuned according to the ruler above, but this The gunner was still uneasy, so he ordered the loader to use the side-by-side rifle next to the gun to take a look.
The loader decisively picked up the semi-automatic rifle next to it. The gun frame of this gun and artillery is almost fixed. At the same time, the bullets with special charges are used. The trajectory simulates the trajectory of the artillery as much as possible. After the rifle is tested, the accuracy of the artillery will be improved. A lot.
With a bang, a flashing red tracer fell on the target. Then the stubby 75mm artillery shrank back sharply, and a cloud of smoke was ejected from the muzzle. In less than 2 seconds, the bunker in the distance was shattered by the 75mm artillery bomb! The sky full of fools and wood fragments are like rain scattered flowers.
"Very nice guy!" Prince Leopold nodded in satisfaction and said. The prince understood that he was not so satisfied with this tank as he was satisfied with the firepower of this guy. The 75mm artillery was truly fierce in this era!
"Okay, brothers, now enter the next stage, everyone be careful, theoretically our tank can withstand such an attack, and at the same time, we also added an extra layer of steel to the car body." After the four targets were destroyed, the vehicle display entered the next stage-simulated battlefield!
The tank continued to run forward, and then the machine gun crew and grenadiers deployed around the test site thought about the tank tilted in the rain and threw grenades. At least 4 machine guns ejected fire snakes at the same time! Two of the machine gun groups used K-type bullets specially made by the Prussian military!
The bullets hit like raindrops on the car body of No. 2 car. The bullet hit the steel plate of the car body and spattered a little spark. These bullets fired from 500 meters away were like the fangs of a viper. The body of the giant beast, but unfortunately, they returned without success, the huge chariot continued to slowly open at a speed of 4 kilometers per hour, and did not take the machine gun next to it seriously.
"Brothers, stay calm, trust me! These bullets can't even penetrate 15mm steel plates, and the weakest part of our car body is 20mm!" Mike encouraged some nervous comrades. Before participating in this test, this tank had been fired many times, mainly including resistance to machine guns and resistance to grenade fragments. The 37mm machine gun was also fired several times. There should be no problem.
When driving 300 meters to the rear, the grenadiers also threw their grenades at the tank. From time to time, the grenades fell on the car body or the skirt plate on the side of the track. However, the energy after a mere 250 grams of explosives exploded was also nothing to this armored guy. There was no effect except that a piece of glass outside the commander's tower was cut through a breach.
In this way, this big guy walked in the rain of bullets and easily crossed the 800-meter-long firepower net! And on the last distance, the last bunker was solved with two shells from 1000 meters away!
"Very good, this is what we need! The perfect war machine!" Prince Leopold was impressed by the wonderful performance of tank 2! A weapon that can withstand more than 90% of the firepower on the battlefield ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ can accompany infantry combat! An epoch-making weapon that perfectly combines attack, defense, and mobility! Prince Leopold realized how scarce his language was, that he couldn't describe this perfect weapon!
"Go, Ruprecht, let us go up and take a closer look at this big guy!" The prince took the lead and walked towards the muddy exercise field. The others followed closely, and the prince let out a sigh of relief towards Shimi behind him. Special made a victory gesture.
Accompanied by a toothy metal twisting sound, the hatch on the top of car 2 finally opened. With the pungent smell, several sweaty tank hands swayed out of the tank. There was no way. The fighting environment inside is really bad, and the off-road and defense tests just now shocked everyone. The shock absorption facilities of this era are extremely unreliable.
Although the No. 2 car charged in the rain of bullets just now was called a fierce one, but a closer look, the intensive blow still left a series of scars on this tank. The bullet-intensive strike is still very troublesome for the wicker armor of this era. Although it is obviously unable to penetrate the armor with a thickness of 20 to 45mm, it still causes the rivet to loosen and fall off, even a hand grenade. Under the effect, a skirting board was shaken off, but fortunately, it was in the second half of the test that nothing major happened, but even so, Mike, Maybach and others were still sweating.
