Chapter 43: Panther Tank

Cyric came to the Krupp family with Alfred. On a secluded road in a manor outside Berlin, a specially-made tractor with a roaring engine was on the trailer behind. , Is a huge box with the words Refrigerator on it.

Gustav, who got the news, did not go to the company at all that day. Now, the Versailles treaty is still in effect, and the arms control personnel of Britain and France are staring at Krupp's production line almost every day.

"Father, I'm back." Alfred saw his father and said proudly: "Our business has been very smooth in recent years."

After a few years, Alfred has grown taller and darkened. Gustav nodded in satisfaction. He has always regarded Alfred as his successor. This time, it was actually a test. .

"Mr. Gustav, maybe I should call your father instead." Cyric said, "This is my betrothal gift. Are you satisfied?"

The irrelevant servants in the manor have all been dismissed, and now, here, looking at the big box, Gustav’s eyes are showing expectations.

is more than 10 meters long! That means that the contents of the box will be a giant!

Now, less than 1930, almost all tanks in the world are still light!

Looking at the tires of this trailer, it is squashed, which shows that this tank is heavy!

"Quickly, open the box!" Gustav felt his breathing is fast, like a lover who had been separated for a long time, the kind of expectation he had when he saw his woman.

Open the box!

A few people who followed with him started to unpack the boxes well-trained, and Gustav saw at a glance that it was Guderian who was in command!

"Be careful, be careful!" Guderian commanded and took apart the box. A huge tank appeared in front of Gustav.

Tall and mighty! This is the first impression of Gustav, the full body, the inclined turret, the thick and powerful road wheels, etc., why is there no gun barrel?

If it’s equipped with a barrel, the tank will be too long. The extended barrel will make people guess it at a glance. Therefore, the barrel was not installed when it was transported. Now, Guderian brought his own man. , Use the crane attached to the car to install the gun barrel in place.

"God, this gun is 75mm, right?" Gustav took a breath: "The length of the barrel is at least 40 times the caliber!"

Krupp has always been famous for producing cannons, but when I saw this tank gun, I couldn't help but be shocked.

At this time, most of the tanks in the West had artillery calibers of about 30 mm, and the largest ones did not exceed 50 mm. Moreover, they all had short barrels. Now, the barrels of such tanks are so thick and so thick. long!

"Yes, Mr. Gustav, this is our base in the desert. It is a new tank developed by the efforts of all engineers." Cyric said: "Our German armored forces will operate it to conquer world!"

"Cyric, I am willing to marry my daughter to you, you are such a genius!" Gustav said: "Now, I can't wait to watch this tank and drive around in my manor. Up!"

"That's okay, father-in-law, when we get married, can I invite President Hindenburg to our wedding together?" Cyric said.

"Of course, no problem." Gustav hadn't realized Cyric's intentions yet, and he couldn't wait.

This tank is definitely quite heavy! At least over thirty tons! Now, the appearance and firepower are absolutely trans-epochal. So, can the power system keep up?

He wants to see how this tank moves!

Guderian brought it, which happened to be a group of tanks. The driver went inside and started the engine.

In the sound of the air motor of Sisi, the engine was started!

The powerful sound attracted Gustav's attention even more: "What kind of engine is this?"

"Maybach's technicians have designed the diesel engine, power and torque, have reached a new height, and this engine has great potential." Cyric said.

Cyric is quite satisfied with this diesel engine. In the desert base, Cyric is most concerned about the development of this diesel engine! After many failures, we finally overcome various technical problems. Now, it can run stably!

The addition of this diesel engine gives this tank a strong heart! Moreover, based on this diesel engine, a more powerful model can be further developed and installed on a heavier tank!

"We named this tank, UU Read www.uukanshu.com called the Panther Tank." Cyric said lightly, his face full of pride.

Panther Tank! This tank has not been recognized by any military at all, nor has it been given a number by the military. Everything is made by itself. Therefore, under Cyric’s suggestion, this tank was named the Panther Tank. !

is roughly the same as the Panther tank in history, except for the power system and suspension system.

The technicians of Maybach Company developed the diesel engine, and the suspension system, the technicians did not consider the design of the staggered road wheels at all. They used the large-diameter road wheels suggested by Cyric, but only changed the individual road wheels. The number became six, which made the body lengthen to ten meters!

At the same time, the weight of the vehicle has also increased compared to the design time. When all ammunition and fuel are carried, the weight of the tank has reached 36 tons!

When the other tanks were on the order of 10 to 20 tons, the German tanks had reached the order of 36 tons!

Although some aspects are still unstable, for example, the development of radio is relatively backward, and there is no perfect means of communication between tanks, but this tank is definitely a trans-epoch!

"If our Workers' Party can control the country, we will manufacture a large number of these tanks, and we will tear up the Versailles Treaty with one hand." At this time, Gustav watched the tank start and accelerate, knowing the powerful performance of this tank. , I was completely satisfied with the performance of this tank. At this moment, such a word came from my ear.

This tank will be manufactured in large quantities! Companies that focus on military production will no longer worry about any orders. Their production lines will run at full capacity!
