Vol 2 Chapter 1071: Modified tank

1071, modified tank
One month later.
Hum~~~hump~~~~ boring and the huge engine sounded constantly, a tank was driving in the wilderness. From the appearance of this tank, it can still be seen that it was a British firefly tank during World War II, but it has been modified in too many places.
The engine part at the rear of the tank has been increased a lot, so that the nuclear fusion reaction engine used by the Horned Dragon tank produced by the Guardian Group can be installed. The turret of the tank has also been greatly changed. The original British 17-pound anti-tank gun was removed and a large hole was opened in the gun shield. It was replaced by a short and thick composed of four energy guide rails and a magnetic field restraint device. Ion cannon barrel. The top of the turret was also lifted into a convertible shape, equipped with advanced radar and fire control systems.
And on the front armor of the tank, there is also a red ‘eye’ that can be rotated. This ‘eye’ is turning around to observe.
The speed of the tank is not fast, about 30 kilometers per hour, which is similar to the original speed of the firefly tank. However, considering that the actual weight is close to 50 tons, it is almost a third higher than the original one, so the power is still very sufficient.
Tang Yu and Christina stood beside watching the tank's driving with satisfaction. From time to time, he double-tapped on the light screen that popped up in front of him and entered some data to calculate. After a moment, he said to the communicator: "Try the weapon system, target a rock in the direction of eleven o'clock."
Squeak~~~The tank stopped and the turret started to rotate. Under the action of the new electric motor, the turret turned very fast. The only flaw is that because the rear hood is raised, the turret cannot rotate 360 ​​degrees and can only be turned towards Rotate left and right by 120 degrees.
I only saw the barrel of the ion cannon begin to charge, and the electromagnetic restraint device compressed a blue and white light mass. After about 2 seconds, with a bang, the ion mass suddenly ejected! boom! ! ! The rock that was 300 meters away was hit accurately, and the ultra-high temperature even melted part of the rock into magma instantly!
"Very good, good. Now you come down, and then prepare to test the shield system." Tang Yu said.
Click, the hatch is opened, and a person wearing a vr holographic helmet is drilled out of the cockpit. With the movement of his head, the ‘eye’ in front of the tank also turns. It turns out that this ‘eye’ is the optical sensor that provides the driver with a view. This man took off his helmet. It turned out to be Zheng Hong. He laughed as satisfied as he was addicted: "In addition to the insufficient sensitivity of the suspension system and operation, this tank is simply too cool!!"
Then another militia soldier also crawled out of the turret, his face also hung with excitement. After the improvement of the Firefly tank, only two people can operate it, one driver and one gunner.
"The improvement of the suspension system can only be achieved to this extent. If more, the amount of engineering is too large, it will not be worth the loss. After that we will have a new tank." Tang Yu clapped and said.
From the other side came a t-800 with an m-134 gatling gun. Tang Yu nodded and said, "Well, Zheng Hong, you come here. Now the second round of shield testing begins. The time since the shield was broken in the last test is... 5 minutes and 14 seconds, starting."
~~~~~~~~! ! ! The Gatling gun in the t-800's hand spit out tongue! Countless bullets passed! However, an energy light curtain appeared in front of the tank, blocking all the bullets! After about 20 seconds, after resisting thousands of bullets, the shield suddenly disappeared. Dangdang Dangdang! Countless bullets hit the armor outside the tank, leaving countless bullet marks.
Tang Yu continued to record data on the optical screen.
"That... Big Brother Tang Yu... Big Brother... You give me another chance, OK! Just once! This time I really did not mess up..." Kang Hao said with a smile beside Tang Yu.
"Don't call me elder brother, I should be younger than you." Tang Yu ignored him.
"Oh...this...sister-in-law...sister-in-law, please persuade him...I was really careless..." Kang Hao looked at the majestic modified firefly tank, swallowed, and turned his head again. Christina said nothing.
Christina tilted her head and pointed to a fireflies tank that had broken down on the road wheels and tracks. "If it's not that you are disobedient, you must drive the tank to 60 kilometers per hour. Tang Yu is not." Will be angry."
"I have said long ago that the engine power of the horned dragon tank is 1300 horsepower, which is more than two times higher than the original engine power of the firefly. So although it can theoretically be driven to a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, it actually exceeds There will be problems in 40 kilometers per hour. After all, the engine and the tank are not matched, and this tank was 100 years ago." Tang Yu said next to it.
"Yes... yes... yes... I got it wrong... At that time... didn't I just want to help you try the theoretical maximum speed of this tank...hehe...hehe..." Kang Hao laughed with him, He scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly.
"But Tang Yu also said that this kind of tank can only be used as an infantry tank. It is propelled in cooperation with the infantry, and the combat speed generally does not exceed 20 kilometers per hour." Kristina directly broke Kang Hao's excuse.
Kang Hao suddenly choked, and he dragged the whole person down.
Tang Yu looked at him and said with a sigh: "Okay, okay, give you another chance. Churchill infantry tanks are tested in the afternoon. You can claim one."
"Really! That's great!!" Kang Hao jumped up like a child and ran toward the ten modified Churchill infantry tanks lined up neatly at the speed of a hundred meters.
This kind of tank chassis is like a ship. The load wheel is very small, the turret is not big, and it is boxy. It looks even like the product of the late World War I. In short, it is an ugly tank.
Under the transformation of Tang Yu, this tank also raised the rear engine part to install the nuclear fusion reaction engine, and replaced a double-mounted 30 mm caliber electromagnetic machine gun on the turret~EbookFREE.me ~This weapon will be a nightmare for ordinary terminators. And installed six laser proximity protection devices on the large and flat chassis.
This time Tang Yu modified a total of ten Churchill infantry tanks and four firefly tanks. The former was equipped with a high-power electromagnetic gun to fight heavy targets, and the latter was equipped with a dual 30-mm electromagnetic gun to fight light targets. The main To the terminator.
The modified firefly tank is just a simple heavy fire platform. In order to install electronic equipment, the original parallel machine guns and other weapons were also canceled. Just one flexible infantry can put the fireflies tank to death.
Tang Yu also plans to assemble two giant tanks from the super-high-power engine and some usable parts dismantled in the previously destroyed Hunter Tank. These will constitute the main armored forces of the current New Atlanta Militia Regiment. With the addition of these armored weapons, Tang Yu finally has some confidence.
Over the past month, survivors who have been wandering one after another have also joined New Atlanta, which has restored the number of settlements to about 8,000. Counting the 3,000 prisoners of war, New Atlanta has finally begun to show some signs of prosperity.
Time has entered into June 2046, about half a month from the arrival of the first reinforcements sent from his own time!
Now Tang Yu has looked farther away. The northeast side of New Atlanta is Southampton, and to the east is a large desert, and the west and south are barren. The north is a mountain range that is not high but stretches very wide. At the end of the mountain range, there is a new human settlement, a new Chengdu! !
