In the noisy factory, the workers are working hard, just like the British seamen are all on the streets, and the German workers are so many. …… Every worker here is an old technician who has worked for about ten years, and every movement of them has been tempered by time, and it seems so meticulous.
On the one hand, the German workers are strong, on the other hand, German super factories are also trying to use machines to replace people to work. Germany started advocating mechanical automation several years ago, but as a result of hardware defects and lags, progress has been limited.
However, with the progress of the times and the increasing investment in automated production, the Germans who advocate precision manufacturing have finally made a complete set of semi-automatic production lines for various parts. Turing, the British computing guru who was included in the bag by Germany a year ago, provided many suggestions to make Germany come to the forefront of the world in this important field.
What is even more terrifying is that Germany ’s industrial heritage has been released by German high-level leaders including Speer. In a Europe that has not been destroyed by war, industrial manufacturing capacity has even tended to overtake the United States. Although there may still be gaps in other areas, in military production, the Germans have improved a lot compared to another time and space.
"Put the parts over there on the conveyor belt! Faster!" A head of the workshop pointed to the exquisite parts that had just been sent and processed by the French factory, and a group of apprentices under his command shouted loudly. Road.
So these students who just graduated from the technical school, swarmed up with a smile, and began to arranging the parts with the manufacturer's date of production and the quality inspector's number neatly placed on the conveyor belt. In a row.
Then these parts were driven by the conveyor belt and moved towards the installation machine in the distance. Then the technical workers over there were skilled at welding the parts transferred from this side to a protruding position on the steel plate. Their action is very simple, just point a little with the welding torch, and the parts that have been spaced over there just reach the position.
Soon this part was welded and then pushed by a cart to another conveyor belt and sent to the next processing location. Each of these manual welding links is a rotation of eight groups of people, and each group only works for three hours a day to ensure that the manual link is foolproof.
The steel plate produced in this workshop will be welded to the floor in the next workshop and laid into the tank to be used as the floor. This is a relatively backward process of chassis processing. Generally, after installing these floor parts, the chassis of this tank It's almost complete.
At the other end of the high wall not far from here is the German tank gun production workshop. In the experimental warehouse there, a new tank gun with slender body is slowly being hoisted on a strange welded turret. This turret is very different from the integrated shield turret that has been used in Germany. The installation form of split shield is used.
Similar to modern tanks, the front armor of this turret is welded to both sides of the turret, and does not move up and down with the tank gun. This structure destroys the integrity of the front armor. However, this structure is easier to weld and produce, and other benefits are more obvious.
For example, this structure allows the artillery itself to have better mobility. After all, carrying one armor plate and carrying one-third armor plate cannot be compared in terms of weight. As the weight decreases, the pitching motion of the artillery system will become more convenient.
This new type of turret is the latest turret of the Tiger King tank developed by German technicians. It uses the long-awaited 105mm anti-tank gun of Akado and all front armored forces. Although the caliber is slightly smaller than that of the 122mm caliber artillery on the Stalin tank used by the Soviet Union, the armor-piercing power is more than a full cut.
In order to install this artillery, the Tiger King tank was equipped with thicker wing armor skirts, and the body armor thickness was increased by 5 mm. The thickness of the frontal armor should be increased by a full 30 mm, so that the future main tank of Germany will have a more terrifying resistance.
The added weight is to give the tank a stable shooting ability at any angle. Although these weight gains reduced the maneuverability of the Tiger King tank by 5 kilometers per hour, everyone felt that the price paid for speed was well worth it.
The 105mm caliber main gun version of the King Tiger tank surpassed the Stalin tank which the Soviet Union was proud of in any respect. In terms of driving speed, armor thickness, firepower and other aspects, the King Tiger is far stronger than his opponent. In terms of targeting system and reliability, it is also the benchmark of industrial products in this era. The German industrial system after the system integration finally embodies its own technological advantages, and once again surpassed its opponents steadily on the weapon platform.
The hoisting work was completed quickly, and then the entire turret was slowly hoisted by the same crane again. In the center of this workshop, there is a huge cement-made base, which is specially used to test the turret of Tiger King tank. The installation work was completed quickly, and the rest was the power test of this 105mm caliber gun.
Many instruments and equipment are connected to this turret, because the experiment is not only to test the accuracy and power of the artillery, but also to test the recoil and other aspects of the value. Any weapon is not such a simple thing on the surface, even if it is a A rifle, complete design structure drawings, can almost fill a small box.
"Aiming at the steel plate!" A German technician in a white coat, holding a recording board in his hand, shouted to several workers who were manipulating the turret: "Be careful, you must ensure the safety of the turret! Move as gently as possible, gentlemen!" "
Those workers are indeed carefully operating this new experimental turret. After all, this turret will be used as a sample in the future to produce tens of thousands. And after the German Tiger King tank is replaced with this new turret, it will also really take advantage of the aiming system.
"Aiming completed!" A worker completed the aiming movement very easily. He has been testing the turret here for many years, so he completed the simple operation very easily, and aimed the turret installed on the concrete base. The steel bullseye in the distance.
"Open fire!" With the order, the powerful 105mm caliber tank gun also made a roar, and a loud noise echoed back and forth in the workshop. The workers around the production line did not put down their work. At first he looked in the direction of the roar.
"Observation post, report the target's hit!" A staff member who put the phone's microphone on his face asked the observation station near the target to report on the target's breakdown.
"At a distance of 1100 meters, you can easily penetrate the front armor of the Stalin tank. The penetration is very easy ... Maybe we should directly test the shooting effect at a distance of 1500 meters." On the phone, the staff at the observation post answered very inspiring.
"The recoil of the artillery exceeds the expected value ... I think a muzzle brake should be added to offset part of the recoil." A technician turned around and sketched on a piece of paper with several of his colleagues and assistants In the painting, the powerful shot just now clearly exceeded the load-bearing capacity of the Tiger King tank. They had to use the originally prepared plan to install a muzzle brake to alleviate the recoil impact of the entire car body.
"The aiming accuracy is good. The projectile is shifted a little to the right due to the wind, but it is completely within the acceptable range." Another technician said while looking at the stopwatch in his hand and then nodded. It is a good appraisal: "The aiming speed is good, which is almost 0: 6 seconds less than the original turret."
"Is there any problem in other aspects?" The technical person in charge looked at the other test groups. These groups came from various departments, including materials, smelting, and even experts in the field of chemistry. Fang's representative.
"No." Others shook their heads. After all, this test has been carried out for several weeks. For wartime weapons production, such rigorous technical testing is already in place. There were some problems at the beginning, but after so many solutions, most of the teams could not raise any new problems.
Regarding the comments on the muzzle brake, it was still a new problem that was discovered after the experts of the chassis of the Tiger King tank were called yesterday to discuss together. After all, this Tiger King tank in time and space is not a big monster with a weight of more than 70 tons. It needs to be cautious in dealing with the recoil caused by artillery.
"So, rush out the muzzle brake at the fastest speed, and then test the latest data ... The weight added to the artillery, especially near the muzzle, is a very serious issue, and we need to recalculate the aiming. Time, and other effects. "The person in charge looked at the various groups, and then summed up:" Now solve the respective problems immediately, and if possible, put the latest turret into mass production as soon as possible. "
Everyone began to disperse, and several officers stood in the corner discussing the power of the new tank turret. It seems that they are very interested in this weapon. After all, I heard that the front-line Tiger King tank performed very well.
Four days later, after the signatures of Akado and Speer and others, the latest Tiger King 2 tanks began mass production, and the German armored forces once again took the lead in the world, once again completely overwhelming their own equipment. opponent--
