Chapter 2626: Flanking

The engine of the Challenger tank began to make strange noises.
As a tank driver, there is a big difference from ordinary car drivers, because they are absolutely blind operation, just like typing on the keyboard, they will not go when they are operating the tank. Look at the various levers and instruments of the tank.
If they are driving normally, they will stick their heads out and expose them to the outside, so that they have a wider vision. Otherwise, they can only drill inside the tank and look at the road with the observation periscope in front. When planting, the field of vision is narrower, and a little carelessness may be dangerous. Therefore, you must always stare with your naked eyes, and how can you have the opportunity to look down at various operating systems.
It would be even more uncomfortable if the bear country's tank was even operated half-lying.
Therefore, they would not know that now the engine has started to become hot, and the temperature of the engine is rising rapidly after the high-speed operation just now, and the radiator is not enough to emit all the temperature, so the temperature is getting higher and higher. High, soon approaching the red line area.
The heat dissipation of the engine is very important. If the temperature is too high, when the piston is running in the cylinder, it will not run smoothly due to thermal expansion and contraction. In severe cases, the piston will get stuck with the cylinder. Once the cylinder is pulled, the entire combination of the piston and cylinder is considered scrapped.
This is the situation now.
In the environment of Europa, this kind of situation is impossible. After arriving in the desert, all natural conditions are against them.
If you are not afraid of high temperatures, there are only gas turbines. That kind of power is originally working at high temperatures. However, gas turbines, a monster that drinks oil, can’t be used by ordinary countries.
The commander first noticed the abnormal sound of the engine.
"Look at the water temperature gauge!" the captain shouted.
"Damn it, the engine is hot!" The driver's foot was released from the accelerator pedal, and now the engine must be idling for a while.
The best thing is actually to turn off the flame, open the rear heat dissipation window, and wait for the engine temperature to be normal before walking, but this is obviously inappropriate. This is on the battlefield. Staying in place is definitely a death-seeking behavior.
They can only move forward slowly.
Just as the speed slowed down, smoke and dust were already rolling in front. When he saw the tank unit in front of him, the commander suddenly exclaimed: "Found the enemy's main tank unit, hurry, shattered armor, prepare! "
Yellow-orange-orange shattered armor bullets were stuffed into the barrel.
Niu Country is an old country. As a veteran, they naturally have their pride. On the tank, they took the lead in installing a 120mm tank gun, but this tank gun is completely different from the trend.
There is a rifled gun in the tank gun, called a rifled gun. This type of rifled allows the shells to fly out and increase the stability of the shells. It has been the mainstream for a long time. The 105mm rifled gun, the main force in the Western world, is like this .
At the same time, there is no rifling, that is, smoothbore. Although there is no rifling, the tail of the shell can be kept stable. It is the same principle as the arrow. Because there is no rifling, it is affected by the inside of the barrel. The resistance of the rifled gun is smaller, the speed of the barrel is greater, and the abrasion of the rifling is also avoided. You must know, even if it uses internal chrome plating, self-tightening of the barrel, etc., the rifled gun has two hundred shells and the internal rifling It's bald, but there is no such restriction for smoothbore running. It is even more difficult for a rifled gun to clean the bore.
Therefore, the rifled guns have been eliminated. The mainstream 120mm guns and the Xiong country’s 125mm guns are all smoothbore guns, while the Niu country’s armored forces are stubbornly equipped with rifled guns. This is also to reflect their long heritage. .
At the same time, only rifled guns can use the special type of shattered armor. Up to now, the Niu Country armored forces still retain the special type of shattered armor.
In the current mainstream armored shells, there are mainly two ways. One relies on kinetic energy to slam into the enemy’s armor to open a hole in the opponent’s armor and then drill into it. The other is to rely on metal jets. The principle of the energy-gathering warhead is to burn through the armor with thin, molten metal.
In addition to these two methods, there is another non-inflowing projectile, which is the shattered armor projectile. The principle of this projectile is very special. It does not need to penetrate the opponent's armor. Relying on these metal splashes to kill the enemy, this is the principle of broken armor.
It can kill the enemy without piercing the armor.
Now, it's the turn of this shell to show off its power!
The gunner started aiming, and when his laser rangefinder started emitting laser beams, he immediately encountered the same problem.
Can't find distance!
Long-range precision attacks rely on precise distance values. If you don't know this now, you can't accurately attack at all. What is going on?
The gunner shouted anxiously: "The rangefinder is broken, now switch to manual mode!"
Since laser distance measurement is not possible, even if it is rough, he can only aim with sight. His eyes are close to the sight, his hand starts to turn gears, pressing the opposite tank, and then fine-tunes it carefully.
Before firing, I saw the opposite tank firing!
The tankers of the Date Palm Country opened fire earlier than they did!
At a distance of two kilometers, a tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile flew out of the barrel and came towards this side. The commander of the car shouted loudly: "Quick, brake!"
This is a choice that almost all car captains will make. Moreover, their current engines cannot run at high power, and there is no way to avoid attacks by accelerating, only to brake.
Just as they braked, they heard a huge metal crash from behind.
Damn, they are surrounded. Not only are there interceptions in the front, but there are also chasing behind them. The tanks that were chased by them are back!
At this time, the distance is two thousand five hundred meters!
Even the 79 tanks chasing behind did not expect that when they opened fire at such a long distance, they also hit. The accuracy of the fire control system of Han State is simply terribly high!
Of course, there is also a component of luck. If the opponent does not brake, the shell will not hit the opponent's tank at all. But now, as the opponent brakes suddenly, the shell happens to fall to the tail and onto the engine compartment. Where can the thin steel plate block the attack of the 120mm tungsten alloy long rod armor-piercing projectile!
"Huh!"
