The German Tigers and King Tigers are very strong. At least if they are dealing with the Russian T-34s, they can deal with at least two or three at a time. It is only the combat effectiveness of a single vehicle. If it is two Tigers or King Tigers, , this number can even double.
However, for the Wehrmacht, the German Tigers and King Tigers are not such difficult opponents.
First of all, the Tiger's 88mm gun has a magnification of only 56 times, which is the so-called 88mmkk36/56 tank gun. A tank gun of this level is still no problem against the T-40. After all, even if the T-40 is on the front of the turret The armor is only 120 mm, and the front armor of the car body is only 100 mm.
If it is within a distance of 2000 meters, as long as it can hit, it is not impossible to penetrate.
Of course, whether it can hit is also a problem. After all, it is not easy to hit a maneuvering opponent at a distance of 2,000 meters. In this era, it is estimated that only German armored forces and Chinese armored forces can do this. As for the Russians - their aiming system and artillery accuracy are really terrible
Therefore, the Tiger, which was extremely majestic in World War II, could only pose a threat to the medium-sized T-40. Of course, if it is at a closer range, it is not impossible to penetrate the T-41, as long as the Tiger can survive to that distance.
Compared with Tiger Style, King Tiger poses a greater threat.
Although the 88 mm kk4371 caliber gun is not as powerful as the 105 mm/68 caliber gun of the T-41, it is not impossible to threaten the T-41 within a distance of 2,000 meters. After all, a tank is not just a turret, the body is also a part that can be hit.
Compared with the 200 mm thick turret frontal armor. The 150mm armor of the car body is obviously much weaker. And although Germany lacks tungsten and other resources, this does not mean that Germany does not have tungsten.
¡°At least in this era, even without China, Germany can still obtain tungsten from Spain, Portugal and Japan, so tungsten core bullets are still somewhat in the hands of the Germans.
As for the Panther¡¯s 75mm gun. Just look at the 70 times diameter of the 75mm gun, and you can imagine how powerful this artillery is.
For artillery, caliber is indeed a very important standard, but in many cases we cannot just look at caliber. Many times the diameter of the gun is also very important, especially for tank guns.
The diameter refers to the ratio of tubular firearms to the barrel length relative to the caliber of the artillery. Both are important numbers for displaying artillery, and are also one of the important basis for artillery classification.
The caliber is a unitless number that together with the caliber represents the basic size of the artillery. The diameter is calculated by dividing the barrel length by the muzzle diameter and taking the nearest whole number. There will be English letters appearing on the label, which means length. For example, 40mm/70 or 40mm/70, the latter 70 means that the length of the barrel is about 70 times the caliber of the gun.
Since the longer the warhead of a tubular artillery is exposed to the gas generated by the propellant in the barrel, the higher the muzzle velocity, the greater the energy, and the flatter trajectory, which also has a positive impact on the range. Therefore, in theory, the longer the barrel The better. When comparing the power of two artillery pieces of the same caliber. The size of the magnification is a good reference. The larger the diameter, the longer the barrel.
In addition to distinguishing according to the type of artillery used, such as anti-aircraft guns or naval guns, another common way of classifying artillery is by diameter.
Cannons are used when the multiple diameter is above 45, howitzers are when the multiple diameter is below 39, howitzers are when the multiple diameter is between 45 and 39, and mortars are when the multiple diameter is below 10. However, this classification method is more suitable for artillery before World War II. Most of the modern mortars are more than 10 times in diameter, and there are many artillery pieces that are more than 45 times in diameter but are called howitzers. The terms cannon and howitzer are gradually omitted and are called howitzers.
And the artillery usually used by tanks. That's the cannon - howitzers usually shoot in a curve, and obviously tanks can't fight like this. If you choose a howitzer as a weapon, to be honest, it's hard to say whether it can hit the opponent.
Therefore, the 75mm KK42/70 tank gun equipped by the Leopard can be regarded as extremely powerful among tank guns of the same caliber.
However, the biggest threat to Li Mo is the smallest number of hunting tigers
128mm gun. Plus 250 mm thick frontal armor.
?Hide in a safer position and provide fire cover for the teammates in front¡âSome hunting tigers are just like the gods of death. Basically, as long as you are hit by them, even if you don't die, you will probably lose half of your life.
Fortunately, the rate of fire of the 128mm cannon is relatively slow, only 5 rounds per minute. Coupled with the smaller number, it has not yet brought a devastating blow to Li Mo's team.
But in Li Mo¡¯s view, if we continue to let it go like thisIf so, it probably won¡¯t take much time before his team is wiped out.
"Gan Liang"
Looking at Gan Liang who took the order and left, Li Mo said silently in his heart.
¡°We must succeed!!!¡±
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
The power of the Hunter Tiger is impressive. After all, even if the T-41 with the thickest armor is hit by the Hunter Tiger's 128mm cannon, half of its life will be lost, and it may even be sent to the sky by the opponent.
Therefore, almost everyone on Li Mo¡¯s side is paying attention to the hunting tiger¡¯s movements.
But for Gan Liang and others, the deterrent effect of tiger hunting is not that great.
Because almost all the tanks present have the ability to penetrate the T-40, there is actually no difference whether the opponent is a Hunter Tiger or a Tiger. As for opponents with poor maneuverability like the Hunter Tiger, Gan Liang and others will not be able to defeat them. The deterrent effect is not that great.
Therefore, after receiving Li Mo's order, Gan Liang, together with half a company of T-40s that separated from the battle group, circled from a distance to the rear of the Liehu and other vehicles.
Since the battle was intense this time, the Germans did not notice the movements of Gan Liang and others.
But after all, the Germans are not blind-sighted guys, so it didn¡¯t take long for them to find that the number of opponents in front of them seemed to be smaller. At the same time, it seemed that someone was driving behind them
"Want to have a sneak attack"
Noting this, the German officer sneered.
Soon, a number of Panthers and Tigers returned from the front line, and together with the officers' tanks at the headquarters of the tank regiment, they guarded against possible enemy attacks.
The Germans¡¯ movement is not small. What's more, there was a behemoth like Tiger Style, so Gan Liang soon understood that his own movements had been exposed.
"Batalion Commander, are you still coming?"
Looking at the situation ahead, the driver of Gan Liang¡¯s tank looked up and asked.
"We have reached this point, how could we not"
He gritted his teeth. Gan Liang said this.
Gan Liang's half of the company quickly started moving, and all the tanks accelerated to their maximum speed. Soon, the Germans discovered the opponents behind them who were driving towards them at the highest speed.
"come yet¡"
No order is needed from the officers, the Germans have already started
"Perhaps Gan Liang was lucky. None of the first few shots hit. Instead, one of Gan Liang's tanks was moving. It was almost like a miracle that one of the cannonballs actually hit the opponent.
You must know that during World War II, there was no fire control system. If a tank fired while moving, it was almost the same as fireworks. Now one of them can actually hit the target while traveling. And it penetrated the Tiger tank, which was undoubtedly something close to a miracle.
"It's a good sign"
Thinking this, Gan Liang continued to give orders and rush in the direction of the hunting tiger.
At the same time, perhaps the success of his companions gave many incentives to Gan Liang's subordinates, including the gunner of Gan Liang's tank. They all also learned to fire on the move. It's a pity that they don't seem to have such good luck, so it's really just like setting off fireworks. Fortunately, the T-40 has as much ammunition as a dozen. There is no ammunition for the real battle
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
The Germans seemed to be shocked by the shell just now, but they quickly reacted. So soon, the counterattack began.
After many rounds of shelling, a shell soon hit a T-40. Fortunately, the shell only hit the track of the tank and broke the track. It did not cause too much damage to the tank itself.
After discovering this, the commander and driver in the tank quickly jumped out of the tank. Use the crawler tracks and other equipment you carry to start simple maintenance.
The gunner and loader are there, transforming themselves into a fixed turret.
Anyway, at this time, the tank, whose tracks were blown off, was only about 1,500 meters away from the place. At a distance of 1,500 meters, the 85mm gun it carried was already able to target the opponent except for hunting tigers. All tanks pose a threat.
And under fixed conditions, the tank's shooting accuracy will be better.
In just a short time, the gunner and loader in the turret cooperated and hit a King Tiger. Although the shell bounced off King Tiger's armor, it left a scratch on the armor.
On the other hand, Gan Liang and others were flying towards the hunting tiger's position like crazy.Go.
Although there were Leopard and Tiger types blocking the way in front of them, Gan Liang and others did not care at all, because for them, the purpose of this mission was to hunt the tigers. As long as they could kill all the tigers, If they are killed, then their mission will be completed, and the remaining Tiger King, Tiger Style, Leopard Style, etc. will naturally no longer be opponents.
And in fact, that¡¯s exactly what they did.
¡°Boom!!!¡±
After paying a certain amount of casualties, a T-40 finally entered the effective range of the Jagdtiger, and then a shell hit a Jagdtiger.
Although this shell failed to penetrate the hunting tiger, it successfully broke the hunting tiger's tracks
Unlike tanks, the biggest difference between tank destroyers and tanks is that they do not have a turret.
Therefore, as long as the track is broken, the tank destroyer is like a broken leg. Therefore, before the crew of the Hunter Tiger repairs the track, as long as they move their vehicle outside the range of the Hunter Tiger's artillery fire, then the Hunter Tiger In other words, there is no threat at all.
After successfully injuring one vehicle, the other party was also injured soon after.
on the other hand. Li Mo also took this opportunity to press forward across the board.
Unlike the game, on the real battlefield, as long as the commander is not cowardly, it is rare to betray teammates¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ªAs long as the troops are not at the militia level, they are not even as good as the militia
Therefore, the coordination between the two sides is quite good, although the combat effectiveness of the Germans is also quite strong. A T-40 was quickly destroyed again, but after being attacked from two sides, those jaegers who were being cared for did not know which end to focus on
Looking ahead? I will take care of you from the back, but if you care about the back, the front is not an easy thing to deal with
Although the war situation is still in a stalemate at this time. But when the most important, and also the core of the entire German armored regiment, the Hunter appeared to be focusing on one thing at the expense of the other, the balance once again tilted towards Li Mo
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
"Commander, the good news just came back is that the front line has just won a great victory. Not only did it completely capture the enemy's position, but it also completely wiped out an enemy tank regiment. Among the tank regiments, there were even some of the most elite Germans. The two weapons of Tiger King and Hunting Tiger"
In the headquarters of the Caucasus Army in the rear, an officer walked quickly towards Cai E with a telegram.
Although in such a large-scale battle involving hundreds of thousands or even millions of people, the gains and losses of a position and a regiment are somewhat invisible. But this was, after all, the first confrontation between the Wehrmacht and the Germans since the end of World War I. Being able to win a little bit, even just a little bit, is a very morale-boosting thing.
¡°Oh?!¡± After hearing what the officer said, Cai E turned around from the map.
"How's the loss?"
"This" After hearing what Cai E said, the officer's originally happy face changed. "The loss is not small"
Although they suffered a defeat in Moscow, this was not the moment when the Germans were at the end of their rope. Therefore, the Germans are quite strong both in terms of equipment and morale. Therefore, when Li Mo won, his own losses were also quite large
??At least, the few dozen tanks that originally existed. In the end, there were less than thirty vehicles left, and among the more than twenty vehicles, many were seriously injured. Even if they wanted to be repaired, it would take a lot of time, and it was unclear exactly what happened. Is there any repair value. But even so, the opponent's half of the tank regiment. However, they were all destroyed on the battlefield by Li Mo.
On the other hand, the mechanized division where Li Mo is located. They also successfully captured the position and captured more than a thousand German soldiers.
"Yeah¡"
Hearing what the officer said, Cai E nodded.
"No matter what, it would be nice to win"
With that said, Cai E turned his head to the officer again.
"When ordering the 347th Division to rush to the front and replace the 535th Division, the 535th Division was ordered to bring back the captured remains of enemy tanks. These will be sent to the General Armament Department for study"
When the dual-engine project was carried out, although many German engineers returned to Germany, many of them were successfully bribed by the Military Intelligence Agency.
So when they were serving the Germans, they were also continuously sending intelligence back to China. Therefore, the National Socialist Government is no stranger to the existence of the Hunter Tiger and the Tiger King, but it does not know much about the specific performance of these two types of weapons.
Especially in China and GermanyAfter the large-scale war, many of the lines that originally provided intelligence to the National Socialist Government were cut off. Some Germans who originally provided intelligence even took the initiative to cut off contact with the National Socialist Government¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª When becoming an enemy country, many Germans are still willing to exchange some information under the circumstances of past friendship. After all, they can get all the money in exchange. But when the two countries have declared war on each other, that is This is naked treason. Although many Germans do not care about doing so, the vast majority of Germans are still unwilling to treason, otherwise they would not have returned to Germany in the first place
Therefore, the National Socialist Government really needs to obtain the remains of the Hunter Tiger and the Tiger King to obtain accurate information.
After hearing what Cai E said, the officer nodded.
"clear!!!"
In a short time, the headquarters had contacted the 535th Division. After receiving the order, the commander of the 535th Division ordered Li Mo, the leader of the tank regiment, to take the Hunter Tiger and Tiger King troops. The wreckage was transported back to the rear through various methods¡ª¡ªIt just so happened that this tank regiment also needed a rest.
On the other hand, after the victory of Philippine Airlines, the National Defense Forces also successfully captured the Philippines. Although the Japanese troops in the Philippines were strictly guarded, and many even hid in the woods to serve as guerrillas, the National Defense Forces finally successfully captured the Philippines after the National Defense Forces invested some very cruel weapons.
While launching an offensive against the Philippines, the National Socialist Government also launched an offensive against the Nanyang Islands, which was the side that originally belonged to Malaysia.
After capturing the Philippines, the Air Force has been able to provide air support to the Navy, because there happens to be a series of islands on the sea heading to Malaysia. These islands are fully capable of providing coordinates to the Air Force's fighters and bombers.
Therefore, there is no need for the navy to continue to trouble, and perhaps because they are afraid of losing all their remaining assets, the Japanese have never dispatched a combined fleet, and are only using fighter jets of the Army Aviation to intercept.
These Army Aviation fighters have caused a lot of trouble, especially the Japanese Type 4 fighters, whose combat effectiveness is almost the same as that of the D-20. The Japanese seem to have achieved some results after transferring their industry to Australia. Australia, which was already rich in resources and had certain industrial facilities, has begun to become Japan's second base
