Chapter 131: Than firepower

The tank adopts the track method, which is equivalent to giving the wheels an extended road, such as flat ground. At the same time, the track method also greatly increases the resistance of the tank, so the fuel consumption rate of the tank is much higher than that of ordinary wheeled vehicles. .
On flat ground, the resistance is not small, but in the mud pit, the resistance is even greater, and in the mud pit, you have to go uphill to escape, and the resistance is the greatest.
The 780-horsepower engine was roaring, and after trying it twice, it was unsuccessful. Qin Guan knew that he couldn't get it on his own power.
There was mud everywhere, and Qin Guan stood on the tank and watched the Leopard-2 tank rumbling over.
"Catch it." Leopard-2 came upside down. When it came to the front end of the mud pit, a soldier threw the wire rope over.
"Okay." Qin watched the wire rope whizzing towards him. There was still more than ten centimeters away from his car body. So he could only poke his body, stretched his hand forward, and pulled the wire rope from the mud, and then hung it on. Hook on the front of your own car body.
Tanks are very mobile, and their ability to adapt to terrain far exceeds that of wheeled vehicles. At the same time, when tanks are off-road, they often get into trouble.
So there are hooks on the front and back of the tank, and they are always ready for mutual assistance.
Now, after hooking up the hook, Qin Guan went back into the cockpit again. He randomly wiped his body twice with his hands to clean the mud, and then started the engine again.
"Long, Rumbling." This time, the two engines at the front and back worked hard together.
The Leopard-2 tank in the front, the engine emits puffs of black smoke, the steel wire rope has been braced, with great force, dragging the tank in the mud pit behind, and the T-72 in the back, its own engine is also Rumble, the two tanks were in black smoke together, and the T-72 was in the mud, struggling, struggling, and finally, the front of the car came out!
The Leopard-2 tank was still struggling in the front, and the T-72 tank at the back also exerted its strength. The two tanks together, finally, the rear body of the T-72 also left the mud.
At this time, the tank was almost full of mud. The tracks and road wheels turned yellow. After leaving the mud, the engine finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Out!
"In terms of maneuverability, the chassis of the Leopard-2 tank is the winner." Zhu Lao made a conclusion: "Its engine has high power and high ton power. At the same time, its track is also wider. From the perspective of driving experience, Leopard -2 is easier to drive. When we recruit tank soldiers, we don’t have to recruit small men."
The tanks nowadays are very compact, so you must be small to recruit tank soldiers. When driving the Leopard-2 just now, Qin Guan's whole body was inside the tank and he wouldn't feel aggrieved, but he was driving a T-72. If you stick out your head, it’s uncomfortable.
The pros and cons of the two chassis can be seen at a glance. If it is determined to use the Leopard-2 chassis as a prototype, there will be a very important problem to be solved. Our production technology must be able to produce enough power. Engine comes.
There are drawings and craftsmanship. Even if you have everything, you still need to run-in and really manufacture them before you can check the gaps. It is not easy to reach the same level as the original Hans.
The test of mobility ends here, and then it's time to test the firepower of the tank.
If you compare it only from the caliber, the 125mm gun of the T-72 has a larger caliber. However, comparing the firepower of the tank, you must not just compare the caliber.
"One thousand meters, three hundred millimeter targets." The atmosphere on the test field became tense.
The two tanks stood side by side. A thousand meters away from them, two one-square-meter vertical targets were erected. There was a crosshair in the middle of the targets. If they could hit the intersection, they would accurately hit the target.
Compared with firepower, in addition to penetration, there is precision.
Qin Guan didn't operate the tank, he could drive the tank, but he had to be a professional person to fire the gun.
"T-72 is ready."
"Leopard-2 is ready."
"Fire!"
"Boom!" The 125mm gun fired first. At the muzzle, a golden fireball burst out suddenly. Behind the fireball was dense black smoke. In front of the fireball, an armor-piercing projectile opened its tail and flew out. .
Then, the 120mm gun was fired. Although it was fired late, when the flame of its muzzle was formed, it was bigger than the T-72.
This shows what?
Hans’s tank gun has higher chamber pressure and more powerful propellant!
The pressure in the barrel determines the effectiveness of the tank gun. The higher the chamber pressure, the greater the speed of the projectile when it flies out. However, the higher the chamber pressure, the greater the barrel's bearing capacity is required, which requires advanced metal smelting. Craftsmanship is good, otherwise, this is a proper blast.
The 120mm tank gun of the Leopard-2 tank has an internal chamber pressure of more than 500. This still takes care of the problem of life. The maximum pressure of the tank is more than 700. This is definitely a figure against the sky.
When the tank gun fired, everyone covered their ears. It had nothing to do with courage. Hearing the sound of gunfire all the year round would make his ears deaf.
Both are metal rod armor-piercing projectiles. However, the Leopard-2's one-piece projectile has a longer core, and two elongated cores fly in the air at a distance of one kilometer and less than one second.
When the bullet core collided with the target, there was a high-frequency oscillating sound wave that made the eardrum unacceptable.
If you watch a movie or something, hit the opponent's tank with a bang, and the opponent's tank will catch fire. In fact, the fire is caused by the explosion of ammunition inside the tank.
If you only pierce armor, there will be no other effect besides the sound of collision.
The БР11 tail wing stabilized the shelling armor-piercing projectile, which came with a fierce whistling. It was almost half a meter away from the center cross line, and the warhead was in close contact with the target.
At the moment of contact, the huge heat from the collision began to melt the collision area, and the warhead of the armor-piercing projectile also began to deform, but it still carried strong kinetic energy to drill in.
As it continues to drill forward, the speed is getting smaller and smaller, the contact point of the target and the hit position continue to melt inward, and the warhead continues to deepen and deepen.
Finally, its head loosened and passed through!
However, as soon as it passed through, it felt that it had completely lost its strength and could no longer move.
This armor-piercing projectile was stuck at the impact point, the front of the warhead was exposed, the rear wing was exposed, and the center was stuck on the target, which looked a little funny.
"In this case, it can be considered as having penetrated." A group of people came to look at the target, and Zhu Lao said: "But obviously, its armor penetration ability is at the limit of 300 mm."
Look again, on the other side, the target of the Leopard-2 tank, with a molten hole above it, the warhead has long disappeared!
