This is actually the same as the tank turret. The tank's gun shield is the thickest place. What about the top of the turret? The top is the weakest, just the structure of the thin steel plate. This is also to minimize the weight of the tank, which requires
The protective areas add up to protect them, weakening those unwanted areas. If the top of the tank and the backing of the cannon shield are the same, the tank will become a terrible weight of more than one hundred tons, or even two hundred tons.
monster.
At the same time, this is also because when the opposite shell flew over, it was hit on the gun shield in front, and it was impossible to hit the top of the turret. After all, when the shell came over, the trajectory was almost parallel to the top of the turret. If it was really hit, it was hit.
When we arrived, the protection was not the thickness of the top of the turret, but the length of the front and back of the top of the turret, which had long exceeded one meter.
Of course, when the shells fly over, they still have a drop angle, which cannot be absolutely parallel to the top of the turret. However, it doesn't matter. If such a large incident angle is really hit, it's like a water drift.
, it will definitely directly bombard the shells.
Since the top of the turret can be done like this, the tank body can naturally be done like this.
For a long time, in order to increase the protection of the vehicle body, they have made the vehicle body have a large inclination angle. This way, the thickness of the tank body is also quite large, and the front is originally a cone.
The cross-section of the car is thick on the top. What about the car body below? It must be lightning-proof and not thin. In this way, the space inside will be severely shrunk.
In order to reduce the weight as much as possible and increase the protection of the tank, the Americans developed the bulletproof design of the M1 tank. The body is the same as the top of the turret, and it is a thin armor. The main protection force is
?It is provided by the bottom. If the shells come, just hit them below.
Such a design can be said to be a bold attempt? Anyway, it’s just for Lao Ba to get the latest design, just take it out.
Of course, if it is ammunition that attacks the top again, it is absolutely tragic. Qin Zhenhua once made a suggestion to Professor Wang? Let the anti-tank missile he designed can jump up at the end and dive? Just attack the top directly.
However, this is simply unsolvable? If you really attack the top, it will be useless to add the thicker. Now you still have to consider regular protection.
Two different design concepts? You can see clearly from the side view of the tank? If the upper armor in front of the vehicle is horizontal, it is a thin steel plate, and you don’t expect it to be able to resist the attack of the shells on the opposite side.
If the upper armor in front is inclined, it means that this layer of armor is used as the main protective armor, and there will be high-end things like composite materials inside, constantly stuffing this kind of tank.
Now, other tanks in the Eastern Power are all from the latter, and this concept is the first time that the lower armor is used to prevent bulletproof.
Berg thought it seriously and finally nodded: "Yes, let's build a prototype car first according to this concept."
He did not completely deny it. After all, this design of the M1 tank is also used, which means it is still reliable enough. Now, since they have started allocating funds, they need to first build the prototype car and see how it actually works.
In order to develop a new tank, it is necessary to build a prototype car. Just like the Indians on the opposite side, the prototype car of the Arjun tank was built several years ago, and then? And of course, it was a long decades.
Test drive.
Through the testing of the prototype car, we constantly discover and solve the problem. What Lao Ba has to take now is the first step. First build the prototype car and see the effect!
"As for its turret, we hope to use a large amount of existing components. After all, this will be the most beneficial for our production line transformation." Berg continued to introduce their requirements.
When Lao Ba used to produce 69 tanks, he aimed at the ultimate goal of producing advanced third-generation tanks. Moreover, their country's economic situation also determined that they could not waste it. Now, the production of 85 tanks has also used a lot of them before.
Now, when producing Khalid tanks, of course, as much as possible, it is necessary to not change the previous production.
Qin Zhenhua nodded: "We will try to consider this need. However, given the current design concept, we will add a layer of reactive armor protection to the Khalid tank to improve the tank's protection."
"Reaction armor, of course, is the best." Berg was immediately delighted when he heard this.
During the battle in the Beta Valley, Israel's troops showed their power. At the same time, Israel's tanks were wearing reactive armor and boarded the horse, which also became a beautiful scenery. After the war, countries began to develop reactive armor.
The Soviets moved the fastest, and now the Soviet tanks were almost all bricks, and the Eastern powers were not willing to be outdone and already had their own reaction armor.
When the main armor has insufficient protection, adding reactive armor is a perfect solution. It can not only create new tanks, but also be used to transform old tanks.
"As for firepower, we are already very satisfied with your existing 125mm tank gun. We believe it can cope with the threats for a long time." Berg said: "It is also to ensure our logistics unity," he said.
We will continue to use the 125mm tank guns of the Eastern Power as the main tank firepower. At the same time, we also look forward to your ability to upgrade the firepower of the 59 tank to 125mm caliber."
The Eastern Powers are the king of firepower, so Lao Ba is completely convinced in tank guns, especially a few months ago, the Eastern Powers conducted another live-fire performance of 85 tanks, which is considered to be a public display of the firepower level of their tank guns.
That show shocked the whole world, so that the tank troops of many countries were silently thinking about whether their tanks could withstand the bombardment of the 85 tanks from the Eastern powers.
All Berg's requests were expressed. After Qin Zhenhua wrote down all these requests, it was Qin Zhenhua's turn to speak.
"Our first-machine factory started designing a year ago, and now it has a complete design plan." Qin Zhenhua said: "Now, I will introduce to you the design of our Khalid tank."
Although it has only been truly implemented now, the relevant pre-research has already begun in the first machine factory. When Qin Zhenhua released the carefully prepared slides, the officers present at Lao Ba's eyes suddenly became straight.
