Modlin heard an explosion near him. He did not turn his turret, but only heard a report from the radio from a tank on the back of the formation that a tank in his formation had been destroyed by the opponent.
This was the first time that a German tank was destroyed by the opponent, and Modlin knew clearly that it was not the KV-2 with the big head that destroyed his tank, but the Stalin tank with a lower profile. !
Compared to the toilet head, the Stalin tank is their greater threat, because this tank can destroy their own tanks!
"Attention, kill those Stalin tanks first, their firepower is even stronger!" Modlin shouted on the radio, and at the same time, the gunner on his tank had begun to take aim.
That Stalin tank, at this time the black smoke from the barrel of the gun had just dissipated. That shot gave the German tank soldiers too much shock. Can the Soviet tank actually penetrate its own tank?
aim! Although the opponent's appearance is low, oneself can also aim calmly. In such a frontal confrontation, as long as the distance is accurately determined, there is a high degree of confidence!
"Fire!"
Following Modlin’s order, the gunner stepped on the trigger severely, and the entire body of the Tiger tank was trembling. Although the smoker on the gun started to smoke, some of the smoke entered the car. , A smell of gunpowder smoke inside the entire turret.
Modlin stared at his sighting device nervously, he needed to make sure his tank could penetrate the opponent!
The tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile flew toward the Stalin tank. During this distance, it took only 0.8 seconds to make intimate contact with the turret of the Stalin tank.
If compared only from the data, the latest 88mm shelling armor-piercing projectile has a penetration depth of more than 200mm, and converted to the Soviet cast turret, the penetration depth will exceed 240mm, that is, 88mm. The tank guns of Russia are already able to penetrate the thickest turret armor of Soviet tanks.
However, the actual battle is definitely not a data comparison that is taken for granted. There will be many situations.
Like now.
Historically, Stalin tanks have undergone many improvements. From Stalin-1 to Stalin-8, the appearance has also undergone great differences.
The turrets of the early Stalin tanks were somewhat like enlarged T-34 turrets, but in the later stage, they became a tortoise shell-like shape, which made the internal space extremely crowded and at the same time obtained excellent avoidance. Bullet shape.
But now, due to the huge pressure brought by the production of the T-34, Kotin led the team to fight day and night. He actually made this spherical turret in advance. From the outside, it is similar to the 59 tanks of later generations. The turret is very similar.
The top of such a turret is a smooth spherical transition, which is also convenient to increase the effective thickness of the turret.
The bullet core of tungsten alloy flies from a distance, while it is flying and spinning.
Yes, any shell, as long as it is fired from the rifled gun, it must be rotated. The rotation is to increase the stability of flight. This is a creation from the rifled gun.
And the current tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile is no exception. At this time, it rotated and plunged into the spherical turret of the Stalin tank, and at the moment it touched the turret, suddenly, its feet slipped.
For general armor-piercing projectiles, if the angle is too large or is subjected to a non-axial force after contacting the armor, the vertical force directly acting on the armor contact point will be greatly reduced, resulting in failure to penetrate the armor or even ricochet.
The blunt-headed armor-piercing bullets popular in this era are designed to avoid this situation. Inclined armor, in order to increase the effective thickness, and at the same time increase the chance of the opponent's projectile ricochet, while the blunt-headed armor-piercing projectile provides a positive torque, allowing the projectile to be fired vertically.
But the shelling armor-piercing projectile does not have this method. At the same time, due to its rotation, it only has no effect on the axial force of the projectile when it strikes the armor vertically. After a slight angle of incidence, it will produce a large centrifugal effect.
Although the previous tanks had inclined armor on the front, they were not as abnormal as the spherical turret of the Stalin tank. At this time, the angle of the contact position between the armor-piercing projectile and the turret was a big obtuse angle, exceeding one hundred and forty degrees!
In this case, the bullet's warhead slipped, leaving only a shallow trace on the opponent's turret, and it flew away!
If it is shot vertically, the tungsten alloy shelling armor-piercing projectile can completely penetrate the Stalin tank, but now, the good shape of the Stalin tank makes the armor-piercing projectile ricochet.
Modlin slammed a fist on the side wall next to him, his eyes flushed: "Speed up, the formation speeds up!"
Just now, he saw the vibration of the opponent's tank with his own eyes~www.novelhall.com~ which indicated that he had already hit the opponent, but he couldn't penetrate the opponent. It seems that this strange tank is really evil, his own intelligence Did the staff get the data wrong?
Since it is impossible to penetrate the opponent at this distance, then go close and hit, or even go around to hit the opponent's side, without believing that it cannot penetrate the opponent.
Mordlin was fierce and could be penetrated by the opponent, but his own side was unable to penetrate the opponent. This feeling was quite bad.
Fortunately, the number of such tanks is scarce. If all the tanks coming from the first row are of this type, then the formation of one's own side will probably lose most of them in the impact.
Think about it is very scary.
The entire bell-shaped formation is advancing quickly, and the tankers are also suffocating anger.
"Loading finished!" Here, Berokov's tank has finished filling again. He applauded in his heart when he looked at the German tanks rushing up like crazy.
Just now, there was a crashing sound from outside, indicating that we were hit, but our strong tank blocked the German attack, so now, we don’t have to worry about being penetrated. Our only problem is that the loading is too slow. !
The opponent had rushed to a distance of 200 meters, and the loader slowly stuffed the shell into the barrel. Berokov couldn't wait to give an order: "Aim at the tiger tank in the middle of the opponent and fire!"
For Soviet tanks, the threat of Tiger tanks is also considerable. They must eliminate this greatest threat. Moreover, at this distance, their tank guns have a very high hit rate.
"Boom!" The 122mm tank gun roared again.
The artillery shell flew towards Modlin's Tiger tank, and with a fierce roar, it quickly pounced. The Stalin tank was destined to be a rival to the Tiger tank.
