On the noisy battlefield, a new type of tank from the Eilanhir Empire was advancing majestically.
Its power is very powerful. The tracks run over the soil that has been softened by the shells, and there is no feeling of sluggishness at all.
The powerful electric power gives it surging power and high-torque engine, allowing this tank to easily overcome various obstacles.
For the Empire of Airanhill, the new tank has opened the prelude to a new battle mode. It is no longer a tank in the traditional sense, but a brand new battle platform.
This type of electromagnetic tank, named the Type 12 main battle tank, still has three people, but the division of labor among these three people is completely different.
The hunter-killer fire control system that fired directly across the gunner was completely eliminated, and was replaced by a vehicle commander with more trivial functions.
Because it is equipped with a powerful battlefield intelligence analysis module, the entire tank can obtain massive amounts of intelligence for summary and analysis.
New tanks that serve as local sensors for the entire army can transmit this data to a terminal server at the same time it detects an enemy.
Then, this information will be immediately fed back to all weapon systems participating in the battle. This information allows every soldier participating in the battle to master enemy information and make the most correct battlefield decisions.
At the same time, the brand-new tank is equipped with a 120 mm caliber electromagnetic gun, which is powerful and has a high hit rate.
The brand new turret adopts an unmanned design, so even though the artillery itself is more complex, the overall size of the turret has become smaller, and the elevation angle of the artillery has also reached an astonishing fifty degrees.
Due to the comprehensive upgrade of fire control, the muzzle velocity of artillery shells has also been completely transformed. The brand-new electromagnetic tank can be used directly as an anti-aircraft gun, and can fully take into account air defense missions.
Therefore, in the future, the ground forces of the Airanhill Empire will directly cancel the self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and replace them all with new tanks.
The benefits of a small turret go far beyond this. Because it is smaller, it can aim faster, and because it is smaller, it can adapt to more types of transportation methods.
Brand new tanks can even be transported directly using the Z-30, and two tanks can be transported at a time! This is very scary. The strategic deployment capability has been enhanced by more than one level, allowing the new electromagnetic tank to be deployed faster to the battlefield where it is needed.
.
The reduced size of the new main battle tank is lighter, but has better protection. The members are concentrated inside the vehicle body, which also makes the protection more concentrated in disguise, and the effect is naturally more outstanding.
In fact, when it comes to engines, the best military engines in the world have always been motors.
The only reason that restricts motors from becoming military engines is that humans have not yet been able to develop a truly usable portable electric energy source.
Once this energy problem is solved, many weapons on the earth can undergo qualitative changes.
Conventional submarines can get rid of the constraints of electric energy, increase their speed by three times, and can compete with nuclear-powered submarines in a short time.
Fighters can be equipped with more powerful radars to replace early warning aircraft to a certain extent and search for more distant targets on their own.
Tanks and off-road vehicles that emphasize torque can also be driven directly by electric motors, and are no longer troubled by the low torque of diesel and gasoline engines.
The noise of the motor is smaller, and heavy armored vehicles such as tanks can effectively shorten the distance from being discovered by the enemy, and it can also greatly improve the working environment inside the vehicle.
Mobile phones can last longer, and soldiers can carry more electrical equipment to improve their combat effectiveness.
Weapons that were originally unable to be equipped will be equipped to the troops immediately after the power supply problem is solved, such as robots, powered exoskeletons, etc.
The Elanshir Empire is not in such trouble. They have more choices in the choice of power source. Magic, replacing traditional batteries, has accelerated development in this area.
On the one hand, Alan Hill's magic research has turned magic crystal into a brand-new power battery, which can store energy more efficiently and can easily convert energy into the required electricity.
On the other hand, the Airanhill Empire also has its own new technology development in batteries. The new battery used by the Chinese civilization on the Fengling 004 spacecraft has pointed out the direction of battery development for the Airanhill Empire.
"Target found!" Inside the new tank, the gunner used the joystick on his right side that looked like an airplane joystick to control the rapid rotation of the turret above his head.
On the monitor in front of him, one could clearly see the somewhat panicked swordsman of the Heavenly Sword Shen Sect.
Then he pulled the trigger on the joystick, and an electromagnetic gun shell was fired with a bang.
The automatic loading system then pushed a new shell into the bore of the electromagnetic gun. The internal power system discharged instantly, and the second shell was ready to fire again in less than two seconds.
On the gunner's screen, the target had been directly hit. The huge force exploded the moment it hit the target, flying away the surrounding soil and sending up billowing smoke.
"Target is silent!" The gunner gently pulled the handle, and the turret continued to rotate, and the various sensors on it began to search for new targets again.
The commander, or brand new data processor, has three computer screens in front of him, one is a touch screen, and it is flat under the two monitors.
This flat-laying monitor is a touch-screen monitor, and what is displayed on it at this moment is a real-time battlefield map, which marks the specific locations of all enemy soldiers that are currently discovered.
Those that have been locked by artillery or missile units and the attacking shells have been fired are marked in blue, those that have not been suppressed by fire are marked in green. Those that have been attacked and cannot be confirmed to have been completely destroyed are marked in red.
Another screen displays the image generated by the surround-view sensor. This image allows the commander to control what is happening around his tank.
The final display is the multi-purpose display, which can connect to drones and sensors on other tanks and even allow direct video calls with other commanders.
The previous traditional tanks did not have so much power to support so many luxurious equipment. Now, the new tank even has an equipment compartment at the rear that can carry a drone vertical launch system.
"Fire coverage will arrive at the front area soon..." A prompt sounded in the driver's headset: "The probability of being hit by mistake is 3%, please pay attention."
Turning the steering wheel in front of you, the all-electric tank turned lightly, the front of the car avoided the dangerous area, and started to move forward happily again.
