The Third Reich

Chapter 1301 Coaxial Secondary Gun

At this time, the turret of the Rat tank turned 120 degrees, and the flying 122mm shell hit the side of the turret of the Rat tank just right.

At this time, the included angle was also 120 degrees. This terrifying armor-piercing bullet had a close contact with the nickel alloy armor, and then, with a swoosh, it bounced off.

Yes, a ricochet occurred.

This 122mm tank gun was originally improved from the cannon. After the tank is equipped, most of them are grenades, and the proportion of armor-piercing shells is quite small. Since the Navy has guns of the same caliber, the Navy has instead stocked a large number of 122mm armor-piercing shells, so now, these Stalin tanks have sufficient armor-piercing shells.

How deep can a 122mm armor-piercing projectile penetrate? At the current level of the Soviet Union, it will not exceed 150 mm. Converted to German armor steel, that is about 130 mm.

The side armor of the rat tank is also more than 150 mm thick, so even if it is hit from the front, there will be no problem. As for now, it's just a little bit of water, and it doesn't cause any damage to the rat tank.

The turret continued to rotate, and finally, the muzzle was facing the rear, which was right in front of the Stalin tanks that were moving over!

Well-trained German tankers are ready to shoot in less than ten seconds!

Just after turning around, Hans quickly aimed at the differentiation board of his sighting device, and it took almost three seconds to complete the preparation for shooting.

"Fire!" With the shout, Hans stepped on the trigger, and the 128mm armor-piercing projectile flew out of the turret.

"Loading!" Before the smoke inside the turret dissipated, the loader began to move the shells, preparing for the loading of the next shell.

Hans is still observing his target, and Kurt has already begun to observe the surroundings to see the whereabouts of the four tanks. The time left for himself is too short! The 128mm armor-piercing projectile hit the turret of the Stalin tank. This tortoise shell-like sloping armor can deflect the opponent's shells to the maximum extent, but it is also the favorite of blunt armor-piercing projectiles.

The 128mm projectile, without any advanced projectiles, is the most common blunt armor-piercing projectile. When it hits the turret, under the huge kinetic energy, the entire turret shakes violently, and even the car body is hard. After being hit, it retreated several tens of centimeters, the crawler slid on the ground, and two ravines appeared.

The caliber and power are definitely not directly proportional. The performance of the 128mm armor-piercing bullet is at least five times that of the 50mm blunt armor-piercing bullet.

Now, with just the violent impact, the Stalin tank was already unbearable, and then the blunt armor-piercing projectile on the cast turret began to drill into it quickly.

In front of it, a large hole appeared, and in an instant, it penetrated the main armor that Stalin Tank was proud of and drilled into the interior.

"Boom!" Under the impact of the 128mm armor-piercing projectile and the ensuing heat flow of countless broken armor, the ammunition inside the tank immediately exploded terribly.

At the seat ring of the turret, a hot air flow radiated out, pushing the turret up by half a meter, and then falling down.

This Stalin tank, there can be no survivors, all the tankers have been killed, including Yuri.

The sacrifice of Yuri's crew was to buy time for the other tankers, and the other Stalin tanks, at full power, drove quickly towards the Rat tank.

At the same time, the turret of the rat tank also began to turn to his right. Kurt's voice was very low: "Fifteen degrees to the right, five hundred meters away, fire!"

"Boom!" With the sound of shooting, the inside of the turret was filled with smoke, and the smoke machine was whirling out the fired gas. Hans looked at his target.

Missed the target?

At the moment when the fire was fired here, the opponent's tanker suddenly stopped the tank. So, what was a precise shot, there was an accident, and Hans actually missed!

In combat, the real hit rate is quite low. (The hero of East China has been hitting the first shot, and has been complained by many people.)

And in the current battle, a miss will bring terrible trouble, because there are so many enemies!

"Boom!" At this time, a Stalin tank rushed in front, only 300 meters away from the rat tank. It stopped for a short time, and then opened fire violently towards this side.

The 122mm shell, with a terrifying whistle of death, traversed a graceful arc and flew to the Rat tank here.

Although the accuracy of the Soviet tank is not high, and the Soviet tanker's aiming is also very fast, there is not much time for accurate aiming, but the target of the Rat tank is too large, and it has no chance of missing the target at all.

In the next second, the 122mm armor-piercing projectile hit the armor of the rat tank again, this time hitting the position of the hull.

The shell drilled hard, and in front of it, the excellent nickel alloy was desperately blocking, and soon a deep pit was formed in the armor, and the edge of the pit was molten iron.

The shell finally stopped, it didn't drill through!

The violent crash sounded inside the tank, and the tank crews were not at all afraid at all. For Hans, instead of waiting for the loader to reload, he just quickly turned the turret wheel around, and The knob on his front operation panel turned a bit, and then stepped on the trigger again.

"Boom!" The rat tank fired again, but this time the movement was much smaller.

The 128mm tank gun has not yet been loaded, and Hans fired this time, operating the secondary gun next to this thick and large tank gun!

Yes, for the rat tank, there is plenty of space in the huge turret. If only one 128mm gun is installed, it is a bit of a waste. At the same time, when dealing with some small targets, 128mm shells are too wasteful.

However, he couldn't come up with a monster with multiple turrets, and President Cyric didn't like it.

Therefore, they simply installed a 75mm KwK 44 L/36.5 coaxial secondary gun on the right side of the 128mm gun.

The so-called coaxial means that the axes are the same and are installed side by side. On tanks, coaxial machine guns are quite common. The turret rotates and the machine gun rotates, which can destroy the enemy in front at any time. At the same time, there is another coaxial machine gun. Useful for distance measurement.

Before the laser rangefinder was born, measuring the distance of the enemy mainly relied on optics. The width of the opponent's tank was known in advance, and it was converted carefully in the sight. This was too troublesome. Later, a coaxial machine gun was developed. After aiming, fire a shot with the machine gun and observe the impact point. If the machine gun hits, it proves that the aiming is correct, and then fire the gun.

The current coaxial secondary gun is an upgraded version of the coaxial machine gun. Its ballistic characteristics are exactly the same as those of the 128mm tank gun. Now, the 128mm gun did not hit because the opponent suddenly braked, so he used the coaxial gun. Secondary artillery, after fine-tuning a close position, fire again!
