Chapter 1142 BT-7's Tasteless Existence
On the 82-barrel cart, Private Elis held his breath.
In front of him, a BT-7 is driving fast. For him, there is only one chance. After all, the other party's 45mm gun is not vegetarian, and the other party is a burst weapon!
However, he is very confident that this 105mm recoilless gun has completely mastered the shooting essentials. During training, he fired five live ammunition, all of which hit the target.
The usual training is the combat, and the current combat is the training, he is not so afraid at all, it is exactly the same as usual.
The tank is rushing over at high speed. At this time, it is necessary to set a sufficient advance. Moreover, it is better to keep the distance closer. After all, the recoilless gun has a low speed of shells and a long flight time.
Just like that, he was waiting slowly.
500 meters, 400 meters, 300 meters, the other side's tank was moving at high speed, and did not find this 82-barrel truck covered with camouflage nets, which was almost exactly the same as the field on the ground. Finally, Elis pressed the trigger. .
"Bang!" The sound of the recoilless gun's launch was not loud, but the flames escaping from the tail were dozens of meters long. The smoke from this gun was much larger than that of rockets. That is quite dangerous.
As the flames emerged, the 105mm armor-piercing projectile in front flew towards the front!
"Quick, retreat!" Elis said to the driver in front.
The driver put the gear in gear, stepped on the accelerator, and the 82-barrel car roared and went backwards directly.
The individual anti-tank is very dangerous. As long as it is discovered by the opponent, it is almost a dead end. Putting this weapon on the 82-barrel truck is to quickly evacuate after the sneak attack!
However, the advancing Soviet tanks did not seem to see the abnormal situation here. After all, the field of view inside the tank was quite narrow, and when Elis was firing just now, the opponent's turret just turned to another direction.
The anti-tank gun uses the kinetic energy armor-piercing method, relying on the energy brought by the huge speed to penetrate the opponent's armor, but the recoilless gun will not work, because the muzzle velocity of the gun is low, there is not much at all. kinetic energy.
Therefore, it can only use the principle of armor-piercing projectiles and use the energy-forming effect to pierce armor.
The shell just hit the side of the opponent's welded turret. Then, the explosive inside was detonated. Under the action of the metal charge, the molten metal gathered into a trickle, which began to impact the armor on the turret.
The 105mm recoilless gun has a maximum penetration depth of 180mm. Even the Soviet IS series tanks can penetrate the frontal main armor. Now it is only a light tank.
The metal jet penetrated the armor almost instantly, and in front of it was a pile of 45mm shells!
"boom!"
The explosion of the ammunition actually tore the entire turret to pieces. The car body below was still there, but there was nothing on it. The small tank gun also flew far away.
Destroyed successfully!
One after another, the light tanks, under the attack of the German anti-tank forces, are simply weak chickens, and the number of their tanks is rapidly decreasing.
At the same time, the tanks chasing the German tank formations did not end well either.
The BT-7 galloped through the field with the Kritis suspended, and it quickly caught up with the German tank units.
If there were still those infantry fighting vehicles in the German bell tank queue at this time, then some results could still be established, but the infantry fighting vehicles had already left the queue and moved quickly to the front to attack the frontline infantry.
Behind the formation are also Panther 3 tanks.
A BT-7 ran fast in the field, and finally, it caught up with a bell formation in Germany. At this time, the other party was still advancing at a high speed, but he did not find him!
The commander was extremely excited and shouted to the gunner next to him: "Fire and kill the German tanks!"
With fearless sacrifices, they finally got around to the back of the German tanks, and their revenge was finally about to begin!
"Boom!" The 45mm tank gun fired an armor-piercing projectile towards the rear of a Panther 3 tank.
For any tank, the front is always the thickest, the side is the second, and the tail is the weakest. Now, hitting the German's tail will definitely succeed!
Under their gaze, the 45mm armor-piercing projectile that the Soviet tank soldiers hoped flew towards the German tank in front, and then hit the rear of the opponent's turret hard!
Break down, break down the opponent!
Even the driver's eyes widened, looking at the tank, hoping to see the German tank exploded.
Time passed slowly, one second, two seconds, three seconds, the other party didn't have any response?
No, the other party has a reaction, the other party's turret is spinning!
Damn, our 45mm guns can't even knock on the rear of the opponent!
In the 1930s, the Soviets first finalized the M1930 artillery, but they were not satisfied with this gun in the Soviet Union, so they replaced it with a 45mm caliber, which increased the power of the artillery and made mass production easier. This kind of artillery, which is very close to the German PaR 36 in appearance, is the panacea of the Soviet artillery, the DK-20 artillery.
In the early period of World War II in history, this gun could easily tear open the armor of No. 3 and No. 4, and at the same time, it could support infantry operations and was the main infantry anti-tank gun of the Soviet troops.
At the same time, this gun was also improved on tanks, and a large number of them were equipped on Soviet light tanks. Even when it came to the T-34, the early models were equipped with this type of artillery.
At a distance of 500 meters, it has a penetration depth of 35 mm.
However, the protection of German tanks, even in the rear, is more than 50 mm, so this kind of artillery is completely ineffective against German tanks!
The hearts of the Soviet tank soldiers were extremely shocked. Even the back of the German tanks could not be torn apart, so what else could they fight!
They really don't need to fight, because the German tank they beat has already turned the turret!
The field of view of the tank is indeed limited. This is also in history. Some tankers like to show half of their body to command, so that they can get omnidirectional vision, but the probability of being killed is also very high. German tank troops, after entering the battle , must enter the interior of the turret.
In the formation, each tank has its own defensive range, and they are charging, so they do not take into account their own rear.
As a result, now, it was actually attacked! So, the commander of the tank immediately stepped on the switch, the hydraulically driven turret turned quickly, and the Soviet tank that attacked them appeared in the field of vision.
"Boom!" The Panther 3 tank opened fire.
