"The target is not moving." Here, through the sight of the tank, you can clearly see the situation on the opposite side.
Our own stalker tank destroyer fired three shots and two shots to hit the target. The gunner’s aim was already quite level in the quiet shot.
One of the target tanks was even directly destroyed, but there was no other movement on the opposite side.
It seems that I am worrying too much.
At this moment, the battalion commander’s urging came again on the radio:
The 3rd company, speed up, the commander ordered us to intersperse the first armored division that divided the British.
Interspersed and divided, they are the main force, they go straight through, divide the first armored division into two pieces, and eat them separately!
Therefore, Meyer did not hesitate more and issued an order to his troops: "Go forward at full speed!"
go ahead!
The tank engine roared, the tracks crushed the ground, and one after another tanks swiftly pushed to the opposite side.
The road wheels bounce from time to time, and the torsion bar at the bottom of the tank is constantly offsetting the strength of the bounce. It can be said that Germany is the only one in the tank chassis.
The forty-ton chassis is enough to demonstrate the technical level of Germany.
The Panther 3 tank was in front, and the Destroyer Stalker tank was in the back. In this way, they rushed toward the position of the British tank. This was the fastest way to walk in a straight line.
In the distance, the rumble of the engine was getting closer and closer, and the British tankers all had a kind of eager excitement in their hearts.
Almost, Almost.
In a tank in the center, Brigadier Herbart also barely suppressed his excitement. Relying on the spirit of not being afraid of death, they finally waited for the opportunity after sacrificing the soldiers on the two tanks!
From the observation hole here, you can see that the German tanks are rumbling up, getting closer, getting closer!
There was a slight tremor on the ground, and the German tank troops started moving very imposingly. The leading Panther 3 tank passed by, and behind them were the strange-looking tanks without turrets.
Now, they don't know that the German destroyer tank destroyer, the attention of the British intelligence system, are all on the Panther 3 tank.
"Okay, it's time!" Herbart gritted his teeth and suddenly drilled out from the top of his turret. In his hand, he held a No. 74 grenade.
This kind of grenade, from the outside, looks like an extra-large lollipop. And its principle is similar to that of a lollipop.
At the top is a large round metal shell. Inside this metal shell, there is a glass ball containing nitroglycerin. Its surface is pasted with a strong adhesive, and the bottom is an ordinary grip.
After taking it out, Herbart carefully pulled out the needle on the grenade handle. With a light pop, the shell splits in two and the glass ball is exposed. The other needle will activate the five-second delayed detonation fuse. .
This is a big lollipop!
This thing is very heavy. When Herbart got out, he immediately aimed at the Panther 3 that had just passed by on his tank. Let's start with it!
Twenty meters away is the range he can throw away!
Herbart exhausted all his energy and threw this grenade out!
When using it, you must be careful, if it sticks to your body, it will be troublesome.
No. 74 grenade, a unique weapon developed by the British with great concentration. It is like a viscous glue, wherever it touches!
This grenade appeared earlier than in history. It was the result of Churchill's intervention.
The strength of the German armored forces made the British aware of their shortcomings in anti-armor. In addition to developing new tanks and anti-tank guns, they are also transforming simple and effective weapons.
For tank armor, bombing with grenades is a clumsy and effective method, but the power of a single grenade is insufficient, so more grenades need to be bundled together.
On the one hand, it is heavier, on the other hand, it is not easy to throw onto the tank.
After all, the tank won't stop there, it is constantly moving, and the grenade is thrown up, and it may be upside down again.
Moreover, the grenade is originally round, and it is easy to roll down. It is very sad to attack the high target with the grenade, and it is easy to injure yourself.
In this case, the two members of the British First Defense Department, Major Millis Jeffries and Major Stuart McRae, came up with an idea. Their idea was to create something that would stick after being thrown. The grenade of the enemy tank.
After many failures, their grenade still had many shortcomings. However, after Churchill learned of the development project of this grenade, he began to urge its development and production.
Moreover, after watching a test demonstration of the grenade, he stared at the pressure and ordered the grenade to go into production. Named as the No. 74 anti-tank grenade.
Churchill knew that no matter how many shortcomings, it at least provided the infantry with an anti-tank opportunity, better than facing the tank with both hands.
Now, this kind of grenade has just been put into production, and the output is not large. It was first allocated to the most elite troops, and the first armored division was assigned a batch.
Herbart now understands Churchill's intentions, no matter how many shortcomings it is, at least, so that British soldiers can fight German tanks!
In his eyes, the grenade carrying his hopes rolled accurately behind the Panther tank!
Any tank has inadequate protection at the rear, especially with engines at the rear, and the armor is unlikely to be quite thick.
As long as this grenade explodes ~EbookFREE.me~, it can blow up their engine, even if the diesel engine does not catch fire, just being broken can also make them lose their combat effectiveness.
Even if the German attack was repelled and their tank was taken back, it would be even better!
Herbart thought a lot in the short time that the grenade flew past. When his grenade accurately hit the rear of the Panther tank, he almost cheered.
It succeeded!
But in the next moment, he won't be happy.
I saw my own grenade hit the other side's tail, and then he rumbling down!
No sticking, no sticking!
If it sticks, it will be like a lollipop, firmly fixed there, and then explode. But now, instead of sticking, it rolled down.
The Germans, really, don’t you know how to maintain their tanks? So dirty!
