Chapter 671: Tungsten Alloy Armour Piercing Projectile

Just now, they moved their positions once, but now they have no time and the opponent is very close. If they move again, they will be overtaken by the opponent if they can't wait for another shot.
At this time, they only have to fight, fight!
Can't beat it? Then continue to fight!
As they opened fire, other firepower on the front began to fire. Except for the terrible KV-1 tank, the rest of the tanks were not to be feared.
Even Finnish soldiers armed with anti-tank guns were able to hit the BT-5 into smoke immediately.
At this time, the KV-1 tank did not stop and fired. It was obviously a waste of time to move forward slowly.
At this time, the KV-1 tank, the engine at the rear of the tank, emitted puffs of black smoke, and it was constantly moving forward.
Roll over! The line of defense is in the same direction. As long as he can rush to the back of the line, these soldiers who guard the line will have to flee, and even they don’t need to fire guns, just use machine guns to shoot the Finns. Abandoned!
"Boom!" The 50mm anti-tank gun continued to fire. Now, they have fired five shells, and the opposite tank has also rushed to a distance of 100 meters!
This shell flew to the opposite side again, but unfortunately, as it was just now, it still couldn't penetrate the opponent's armor!
That huge monster-like tank is rumbling towards them! At this time, inside the tank, Mirokov and others were already confident.
Their tanks are the most powerful, and nothing can penetrate their armor!
According to the training data, their tanks had a frontal armor thickness of 130 mm! This thickness is definitely greater than that of the German tanks, so they will not be afraid of being penetrated, because in this era, there is no anti-tank weapon that can penetrate them!
Finns, let you see how powerful the Soviet army is!
The tank, rumbling forward, has just received five shots, but the opponent's accuracy is quite high, but it's a pity that it can't penetrate!
The driver even pointed at the other side and drove over, and first killed the opponent's anti-tank gun position before talking!
Use your own tracks to crush them all!
Here, Patty Buddha gritted his teeth and shouted: "Fill, continue to fill!"
There is only one chance for a gun. If this gun can no longer penetrate, it can only be carried with an anti-tank grenade! Damn it, how thick is this Soviet tank?
You know, this kind of our own anti-tank gun can penetrate a 78 mm thick vertical steel plate 500 meters away. Is the thickness of the opponent's armor more than 100 mm?
"Yes!" the loader replied, holding up the last shell in the ammunition box.
On their side, there are a total of two ammunition boxes, each of which contains six shells. Now, in this ammunition box, only the last one is left.
When the loader picked it up, he clearly felt that this shell is heavier than the ones just now. What's the matter?
As he quickly stuffed the cannonball into the barrel, his eyes saw the color of the warhead, which was much brighter than the steel armor-piercing projectile just now!
"Fire!" At this moment, the opposite tank had already moved to a distance of fifty meters. This was the last one! The ammunition in the other ammunition box is out of use!
If this one cannot penetrate...
Pattyfer’s thinking stopped here. He watched the shell he fired, accurately hitting the Soviet tank close at hand, and he could even see the opponent’s gun shield. The several deep pits on the car body were left by shooting when he had just shot.
But this time, the shell with their expectations, after flying towards the target at high speed, slammed heavily on the armor, and then the warhead slammed forward and drilled forward, suddenly, the front of the head was loose.
Already drilled!
The warhead got in, and just rubbed against the armor of the turret, forming a high temperature. At this time, Mirokov in the turret seemed to smell the anxious smell.
A thin metal melt, along with this armor-piercing projectile, splashed over, and when it splashed on the gunner's body, the gunner made a terrible sound.
His pain was not long. The warhead that got in happened to hit the ammunition behind them, and then, there was a violent explosion!
"Boom!" The 76mm shell sent out a violent smashed explosion. The high temperature and high pressure gas instantly stirred up a piece of flesh and blood in the entire turret. There was no more complete human body inside, and all became charred. Exist like meat.
The high-pressure gas drilled to the seat of the turret, where the seal was not tight, and then the gas began to vent.
If you look from the outside, you can see that with a loud noise, hot flames and black smoke emerged from the seat ring of the turret. Following the explosion, the turret was raised half a meter high, and then fell heavily.
Inside, there can be no more living person!
Destroyed, finally destroyed!
Patty Buddha suddenly remembered something and exclaimed excitedly: "To deal with this tank, you can use our tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullet!"
It wasn't because the distance was close that it penetrated the opponent, the opponent's tank and armor are quite thick! How thick is it? It's definitely more than a hundred millimeters!
Therefore, steel armor-piercing bullets cannot penetrate the opponent, even at zero distance!
Fortunately, in their ammunition, in addition to steel armor-piercing bullets, there is another type, which is tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullets!
At the time of trial production, this 50mm anti-tank gun used tungsten alloy armor-piercing shells at a speed of nearly 1200 meters per second, an effective range of 2700 meters, and could penetrate a 120mm vertical steel plate at 500 meters!
Therefore, tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullets are a way to significantly improve armor-piercing capabilities!
In later generations ~EbookFREE.me~ armor-piercing projectiles are also almost based on tungsten alloy. Better than it, only depleted uranium armor-piercing projectiles are left.
Armour-piercing bullets are hard to hit. The higher the strength, the better. The hardness of tungsten alloy is the highest.
However, this armor-piercing projectile is not equipped in large quantities, because tungsten alloy is too expensive!
If it were the case in history, Germany would not have the luxury of using tungsten alloy to make cannonballs. This is simply a horrible thing. But now, with the secret excavation of Austrian tungsten mines, Germany can now mine 400,000 tons of stone per year and produce 1,800 tons of commercial metal tungsten.
Therefore, German tank guns have also begun to be equipped with a certain proportion of tungsten alloy armor-piercing shells.
Of course, if it was for Finland, it would not have supported tungsten alloy armor-piercing shells. However, these shells were not shipped from the factory, but eliminated from Germany's own equipment sequence.
When Germany is equipped, there are six shells in an ammunition box, one of which is a tungsten alloy warhead! Experienced gunners cherish tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullets, and will use them only when necessary!
