Steel Soviet Union

Chapter 1556 Humanoid Tank

The soldier who was knocked to the ground by a sudden burst of bullets is now sitting on the ground, with two comrades accompanying him, checking to see if he has any wounds.

After all, if you say that a person is not hurt at all after being shot seven times at such a close distance, no one would believe this outrageous thing just by sounding.

But I know that the fact in front of me is indeed so. The bulletproof armor that has been removed from the chest is still stuck with the seven 9mm bullets that failed to penetrate. Just like the German armor-piercing bullets can't penetrate the front armor of the Red Army's heavy tanks, all of which are useless.

Being able to sit on the ground with surprise like nothing happened after being shot seven times, this is all thanks to the SN-42 steel plate bulletproof vest.

Generally speaking, if the German 9mm submachine gun bullets are close to the firing range within a hundred meters and tens of meters, they can penetrate the not-so-thick SN-42 bulletproof vest from the front.

After all, the thickness of this forged steel plate is only two millimeters. It is unrealistic to expect this thing to have the same strong protection as the later Kevlar fiber and ceramic plate combination bulletproof vest.

But the problem lies precisely in the SN-42 bulletproof vest used by the combat engineer battalion of the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division, which is more or less different from the style used by other friendly forces.

The bulletproof armor protecting the upper torso is not one piece, but two pieces. There is no special technical content. It is just two identical bulletproof steel plates stacked on the chest, fixed with ropes along the four corners of the two steel plates, and worn on the body.

Although the weight of the whole bulletproof vest has doubled, from the original 5 kilograms to 7 kilograms.

But to be honest, this 7 kilograms of weight is really not a problem for the combat engineers who are "elite Russians".

Compared with the simultaneous operation of holding a DP light machine gun while firing from the hip and charging at the same time, what does this seven kilograms of weight count for?

More importantly, this double-layer modified bulletproof vest has long been proven to be effective.

Not only can it block direct attacks from submachine guns at close range, but it can also block various German pistols that are particularly deadly in close combat and have a faster firing speed. Even the running soldier-type Luger with the longest barrel, the longest effective range, and the highest muzzle speed cannot penetrate the modified SN-42 bulletproof vest with double-layer armor.

Of course, this is limited to the Stalin Guards 1st Tank Division using captured artillery Lugers to test the modified SN-42 bulletproof vest with double-layer armor.

After all, artillery Lugers are as rare as giant pandas on the battlefield, and the so-called extreme defense test is simply impossible to appear and occur on a large scale in actual combat.

The solid protection brought by the double-layer heavy armor has another benefit: the combat engineers who always fight face to face with the enemy infantry can take advantage of this armor in the hand-to-hand combat, which is not common anymore.

The German soldiers who want to kill with one knife and stab to the vital points are often helpless and have no idea where to stab.

They can indeed choose to stab to the limbs, but the problem is that such a stab is not fatal at all.

The ferocious Russians can completely withstand the damage of this knife and kill the Germans who are not protected and only wearing military uniforms on the spot with a backhand knife.

I am disabled and you are dead.

Whether such an exchange is a loss or not, the soldiers on both sides of the war are probably very clear.

The double-layer modified version of the SN-42 bulletproof vest sacrifices limited mobility in exchange for a very good combat power bonus for the soldiers of the combat engineer battalion.

At first, only a small number of combat engineers with strong bodies and bear-like bodies were using such battlefield protection modification and upgrade. Later, it became the unified standard protective gear of the combat engineer battalion.

Whether this effect is good or not, the front-line soldiers who charge into battle have the most say, and there is no need to argue too much.

Malashenko, who was also surprised by this situation, leaned down, picked up the double-layer SN-42 bulletproof vest on the ground, and held it in his hand to observe it carefully.

Seven severely deformed 9mm bullets were all stuck in the middle position after penetrating the first layer of protective armor and slightly deforming the second layer of protective armor. They could not move forward at all and completely lost their kinetic energy.

It can be seen that if he had not been wearing a double-layer bulletproof vest, the soldier who was shot seven times would probably be dead at this moment.

Although penetrating a layer of bulletproof armor will cause the bullet to lose most of its kinetic energy, the remaining penetrating kinetic energy can still tear open the fragile flesh and blood body without any suspense and pour into it.

And because the bullet has been severely deformed and unstable and rolled in the process of penetrating bulletproof armor, it will cause a more serious cavity effect after entering the human body. The large-caliber 9mm bullet can easily make a fist-sized wound on a person's body. Even if it does not penetrate the body, it is enough to kill a person on the spot.

"You are so lucky! All seven shots were aimed at your upper body. If a few shots hit your limbs, you might have died from excessive blood loss. This is a great luck that you didn't go far."

Even Malashenko couldn't help but admire and praise the soldier sitting on the ground in front of him, who was still in shock. This was Malashenko's sincere words.

The episode ended here, and Malashenko did not stay in the cellar for too long. He came to the entrance and climbed up the rope that the soldiers above had put down.

The first thing Malashenko saw when he came to the ground was Igokov's dead face.

No wonder, the moment he realized something was wrong and opened the entrance to the cellar, the final fate of this guy had been determined.

An ordinary bandit can be sent to labor reform, and maybe there is a chance to restart the rest of his life.

But for a bastard like this who talks nonsense and tries to cover up and harbor the No. 1 and No. 2 bandit leaders, sending him to labor reform is a sin of wasting air and consuming food.

Malashenko, who was too lazy to even look at this kind of garbage, waved his hand and gave a very absent-minded order before turning around and leaving.

"Shoot him immediately! There is no need for interrogation. It is no longer necessary."

The collapse and screaming after the short speech were insignificant. This was a perfect end to the journey of saving Vatutin. After returning to his position as the commander of the temporarily requisitioned T43 medium tank, Malashenko finally breathed a sigh of relief.
