Chapter 1385 The Death Squad's Anti-Tank Grenade

When the infantry hits the tank, it is at great risk. During the period when the infantry is approaching the tank, when the infantry is at its most dangerous, many infantry fall on this road.

Germany, in particular, has long summed up a set of tactics. When their tanks are advancing, the infantry fighting vehicles are behind them, and the infantry can be unloaded at any time to protect their wings.

If the infantry wanted to hit them, they would face the machine guns of the tanks, the machine guns of the infantry fighting vehicles, the submachine guns of the German infantrymen. In the hail of bullets, many lives of the Soviet infantry were sacrificed in vain.

But now, it is a good opportunity.

The German tanks did not form an attack queue. They were a long snake formation. At the same time, they did not have infantry accompanying them on both sides. Those screw cars ran to chase the artillery positions.

An array like Germany cannot fight at all, it is easy to be approached, and it is impossible to form cross-fire.

And this trap of the Soviet infantry will make the Germans suffer a lot.

They don't have to move. When the German tanks stopped, they were waiting for them at a distance of 20 or 30 meters. Some people even suspected that their ears were broken. Why didn't the order be issued?

They are death squads, and everyone has the belief that they will die, because they know that once they start attacking, they can't go back alive.

They can't move in the swamp, they can only step on the tree trunks that fall into the swamp, and come towards the road here, and their anti-tank grenades can't wipe out all the German tanks, even if If there is one left, the tank machine gun will kill them too.

However, they are still fearless, using their own lives for a tank of the other party, it is worth it!

In fact, they had already suffered losses just now.

When the howitzer was fired, although it had been accurately aimed, some of the shells were missed, and some of them fell into their hiding places.

No one survived, and if a 152mm grenade exploded nearby, the same person would have been killed. Their bodies, wrapped in mud, flew up and went unnoticed on the battlefield.

If they were unfortunate, there was also luck, for example, that the German screw cars turned early and avoided their hiding places, otherwise, those screw cars would have churned them into meat sauce.

Now, these death squad fighters with determination to die raised their hands and started tossing their anti-tank grenades.

Their grenades are also of various kinds. Some of them bundle several grenades directly together. Even if it is a cluster grenade, they hope to use more explosives to blast the opponent's armor.

There are also hand grenades that many people have never seen before. This is the latest anti-tank grenade developed by the Soviets. In later generations, it was named RPG-43. The RPG here is not a bazooka, but a hand-held anti-tank grenade. Abbreviation for tank grenade.

With the strength of the German armored forces, the Soviet Union felt a lot of pressure. While they continued to increase their tank production and research and development, they were also considering the issue of individual anti-tank.

After all, it is also very urgent to make ordinary soldiers have anti-tank capabilities. In this regard, the United States has given a lot of support and provided the Soviet Union with the principle of the energy gathering effect. Based on this principle, the Soviet Union has made the present anti-tank grenade.

In fact, the energy gathering effect is not a secret. As early as 1888, the American Monroe discovered the energy gathering effect in the explosive test, so it is also called the "Monroe effect".

However, at the time, it was not known what this could do. Until 1930, Wood further improved Monroe's experiment. A metal cover was placed on the surface of the conical cavity of the grain, which greatly enhanced the armor-piercing ability. The principle is that when a hollow grain with a conical hole explodes, the energy is highly concentrated along the grain axis and can penetrate a very thick steel plate.

Later, the Swiss mastered this technology. In order to sell this technology, a group of Swiss experts organized a new type of anti-tank explosives demonstration test, and specially invited the British military attache in Switzerland to watch.

As a result, the British thought it was too expensive, and at the same time, the British military attache specially invited explosion experts from the Woolleys Arsenal in London to come to Switzerland to watch it, and they saw through the door.

After Britain was conquered by Germany, these bomb experts were transferred to the United States, and the United States mastered these technologies.

In order to help the Soviet Union fight against German tanks, the United States provided these principles, but did not tell the Soviet Union something more central, but for the Soviets, as long as they knew the idea.

The current anti-tank grenade is the first anti-tank grenade in the world that uses the principle of hollow charge.

However, the design of its drug cover is not reasonable enough, so it mainly relies on a large charge to ensure the armor-piercing effect.

For Soviet technicians, the power is not enough to make up the quantity, which is the most basic common sense. This grenade is equipped with 612 grams of TNT explosive, and the total bomb mass is 1200 grams. (It is heavy, just compare it. The most common wooden handle grenade is only 600 grams, which is twice as much as an ordinary grenade!)

In this case, its armor penetration depth is 75 mm, which is definitely not good for the front of the Tiger tank, but if it is against the rear armor of the Tiger tank, it will be completely fine.

What's more, because the German tank troops formed a long snake formation, some of the Panther 3 tanks behind them all fell into the ambush range of the Soviet Union.

They are death squads, Rokossovsky would not use them if they were not used. If the German tanks have already been beaten by their own side, it would be icing on the cake to let the death squads come out, but now, once the death squads are used, it is almost A lose-lose ending.

Kolov's body was full of mud, and he felt that a lot of his skin was itching. There were many blood-sucking leeches in the swamp. Hiding in it, the body would soon be sucked up by the leeches.

Everyone is in this situation. Before entering the swamp, they fastened their cuffs and pants, but there were still leeches on their hands and faces, and some even bit their clothes and got into it.

When he stood up, there were still two leeches on his face, hanging in front of his face like that. But Kolov didn't care anymore. The moment he stood up, he pulled the tab of his grenade, raised his hand, and wanted to throw the grenade out.

At this moment, he felt his hand slip, and suddenly his heart sank, not good!
