Anti-Japanese blood sacrifice mountains and rivers

Gao Fei is not a fool, Stalin will certainly be brewing a lot of retaliatory measures when he has suffered such a big loss, and what he has to do is to strengthen the strength of the armed forces, Gao Fei will combine the Soviet army's new t342f85 medium tank with The wreckage of the Stalin II heavy tank was handed over to the U.S. military. The m4e:8 Sherman medium tank did not have an advantage in the battle with the t342f85 medium tank. This shocked the Americans, especially with such a large loss ratio , we must know that during the battle between the Soviet army and the German army, the loss figures of various types of T34 tanks of the Soviet army have always remained high, excluding factors such as drivers, and comprehensively analyzing from the power of the artillery to the depth of armor penetration, etc., if the m4e :8 The Sherman medium tank is a nightmare against the latest German Panther h medium tank. .cc|

Although the Vladivostok incident ended with the temporary retreat of the Soviet Union, it also deeply stimulated Gao Fei. With the help of American metal experts, he analyzed the armor of Soviet tanks and the armor data of German tanks provided by the US. With the advancement of metal smelting technology, Gao Fei's idea of ​​producing new heavy tanks or medium tanks in the Northeast has received full support from the United States.

However, Gao Fei vetoed the m6 tank plan provided by the Americans, because although the performance of the tank is better than that of the German Panther D medium tank in terms of data, it is not as good as the gun armor penetration and protection. Look at the German Tiger heavy tank, and this is only theoretical data provided by the Americans. Many things that are theoretically feasible require a lot of blood to prove that they are wrong on the real battlefield, and equipment, strategies and tactics are also different. in this way. .)

Moreover, Gao Fei knows that the Americans are secretly testing two so-called heavy tanks, the Pershing t26e3 and the Pershing t26e4. The main gun installed by the Americans on the Pershing t26e3 is the 3mm m26 tank gun, and the t4e15 is the 2mm t[-]e[-] tank gun. Tank guns, both of which are modified products of the US [-]mm anti-aircraft guns, are similar to the development of German tank guns. The reason is that anti-aircraft guns have the same high initial velocity characteristics as tank guns.

The m3 gun body is fifty times the caliber length, and the t15e2 gun body is seventy times the caliber length. It is like the German Tiger heavy tank loading the kwk56 with 36 times the caliber, while the King Tiger is loaded with the kwk71 with 43 times the caliber. This design can save a lot of money At the same time of cost, shortening the installation time is completely different from the design ideas of the Soviets who used cannons instead of developing tank guns separately, and the ideas of the Soviets and the Americans in designing tanks are also completely inconsistent, and the tactics are different. The Soviets The dominant idea is the assault strategy of the central heavy corps of armored clusters. The Americans emphasize joint ground-air operations, the air force dominates, and tanks are tactical weapons.Anti-Japanese Blood Sacrifice Mountains and Rivers 917

Moreover, the Americans actually gave themselves a design plan that they had already eliminated, so Gao Fei decided to become an armored tank design institute in Changchun to design and develop new types of vehicles by himself. After all, the Pershing t26e3 tank designed by the Americans is still the Pershing t26e4 tank. According to the design of heavy tanks, in fact, when the United States installed them on a large scale, all the Pershing series tanks were medium tanks.

Gao Fei is not satisfied with the caliber of the M3 tank gun with a gun body length fifty times the caliber provided by the Americans, and the T15E2 tank gun with a gun body length seventy times the caliber, but Gao Fei knows that it is necessary to manufacture such a tank gun with a rifled gun. The cost of tank guns is relatively high. If you consider the improvement of ammunition research, Gao Fei tends to develop independently after all, because the technology of armored tank guns is developed and upgraded because of the escalation of the war. It is the progress of scientific research driven by the war. , just like the relationship between spear and shield.

Many technologies have actually met the requirements of research and development and manufacturing conditions, but due to the economic and technical relations between cost and needs, it is like the target that can be effectively destroyed by 75mm artillery, why develop 150mm artillery to destroy?War is also a double contest on the comprehensive national strength and economic level.

Moreover, most tanks of later generations used smoothbore guns. The main reason why Gao Fei wanted to use smoothbore guns was that smoothbore guns used kinetic energy bullets with relatively large lengths, so they had strong armor-piercing capabilities. The problem of ablation, the resistance in the bore is small, the service life is longer, and it is more in line with the requirements of economy. As long as the technical problems of alloy and heat-resistant barrier are solved, the combat comprehensive value of the smoothbore gun far exceeds that of the rifled gun.

Moreover, the ammunition charge fired by the smoothbore gun is more than that of the rifle, and the pressure in the chamber is high, so the initial velocity of the launch can be large, which can improve the armor-piercing ability of the armor-piercing projectile, and when the smoothbore gun fires the armor-piercing projectile, because the projectile is not stable by the rifling, so There is no harmful effect of centrifugal force on the energy-shaping jet, and the armor-piercing ability can be improved to a certain extent. The shell has no sliding belt and transmission mechanism, which reduces the weight of the shell, and the formation of the recoil of the artillery is also reduced accordingly.

However, in terms of the star-shaped rotating mechanism and the wet ammunition rack, including the stabilized shooting device, all of them are replicas of American technology. The star-shaped rotating mechanism of the US military has a shooting range of 360 degrees. Negative ten degrees to positive twenty degrees, while the German Tiger turret needs as much as 17 seconds to rotate a circle under hydraulic drive, and the Stalin II tank takes 19 seconds. Compared with the periscope sight and telescopic sight for direct shooting The Americans have also equipped tanks with azimuth and quadrants for indirect shooting, and the Americans have already obtained the wreckage of the active infrared night sights that the Germans began to install in North Africa. I believe that the Americans will soon research will yield results.

For the new type of tank, Gao Fei originally wanted to refer to the low body of the Pershing T26E3, but in terms of the choice of the turret, Gao Fei tended to use the extremely costly steel mixed gold integral casting turret model.

In the design of the tank, different armor thicknesses are used according to the different parts of the tank. The frontal armor with a high probability of being attacked is thicker, and the rest of the parts such as the top, bottom, sides and rear are lowered, and the front armor is made inclined. shape, to increase the chance of ricochet and to increase the armor thickness that the shell needs to penetrate horizontally.

Gao Fei is very clear that many technologies are now fully formed and can be used as a reference. For example, the technology of cast steel alloy turrets can be fully satisfied in Angang, but its high cost makes American engineers daunting. Gao Fei relies on everything. The capital all comes from the country's resources, and China's economy is almost on the verge of collapse, so there is no need to be subject to excessive economic restrictions. The United States can't do that.
