"We know that the application of wheeled infantry fighting vehicles is becoming more and more extensive, and they have made great achievements in many fields." Wang Erzhu said: "In some places, the environment will be very dangerous. At this time, armor protection is needed.
For example, in order to deal with urban combat, the Americans specially put on grille armor to deal with the ubiquitous bazooka. At the same time, they also added an extra layer of armor to their vehicles at the right time. So are we,
As long as there is a demand, it can be increased at any time. Whether it is grille armor or gaps that match armor, we have corresponding technologies."
This is the technical advantage of the first machine factory. What does the first machine factory do? They are the one who makes tanks. In the field of tank manufacturing, armor is the most commonly used thing. One machine factory can put the tank on it at will
Take off the armor and simplify it for use for the armored vehicle. This is a matter of someone turning his left hand into his right hand, and others can't learn it at all.
In this era, wheeled armored vehicles need to enter the city to fight. In the city, they are not facing regular troops, but ubiquitous guerrillas. Those people carry rocket launchers and can come and shoot a shot at any time.
The weak armored vehicle cannot withstand this kind of blow at all, but this does not mean that the wheeled vehicle cannot counterattack. After all, the bazooka acts on the trigger fuse on the top, so that it can be used.
The grille armor method is to block it, which means a large fence to block it. Either it will jamm the rocket or it will be detonated outside in advance. Those metal jets will not act on the main armor of the armored vehicle, and it will be used.
The role of protection.
As for another type of gap armor, this is actually a very general concept. In essence, grille armor is actually a kind of gap armor, which is filled into those gaps by air.
Of course, the grille armor is too eye-catching, so it was taken out directly. This gap armor is considered a kind of composite armor, but it is actually a bit difficult. Composite armor cannot provide high enough protection in metal armor.
In the case, different materials are used to make the armor plates and then roll them up layer by layer to form an armor structure. In short, this gap armor, in between the two layers of armor, fills air into it, and there is a
The gap between layers is the gap armor.
What is its relationship with composite armor? This is also very complicated. If the air layer in the middle is regarded as a composite material, it is considered a kind of composite armor. At the same time, more often than not, several layers of composite armor are
Leave a certain gap between them, so that they become the style of gap armor.
What are the benefits of this kind of armor? In fact, it is similar to the functions of grille armor. They are all for preventing metal jets from breaking through. If the metal jet encounters air, it will not be able to use it. Anyway, the air is mixed in the middle and will not increase.
The weight of gap armor, and at the same time, air is the cheapest material, so, gap armor gradually has a market.
For a wheeled infantry fighting vehicle, it is impossible to increase it to the same protective power as a tank. Therefore, it cannot resist the attack of armor-piercing bombs. When kinetic energy comes, it can only be
I have to be blessed, but in urban combat, when facing asymmetric opponents, I mainly encounter weapons such as metal jets.
Whether it is a bazooka or an anti-tank missile, it uses the killing principle of metal jets. These weapons are also very easy to carry in cities, so they have gradually become the enemy of wheeled armored vehicles.
Although it did not add much weight, it was still very effective to defend against the shooting of these weapons. A rocket flew over, no matter how many hundreds of millimeters of its propaganda, as long as it was grille armor or gap armor was given.
If you block it, it will not be able to use force. At the same time, it will increase the thickness of the armored vehicle after all, so its defense ability against ordinary weapons will be improved.
"Without adding these additional devices, our tank can only defend against the strike of 7.62mm bullets, and the front can only guard against the strike of 12.7mm machine guns. After adding this layer of additional armor, its side energy
Defend the strike of 14.5mm bullets, and the front can prevent the shooting of 20mm machine guns." Wang Erzhu said all these data, and everyone was shining in front of him.
The protection has been completely improved! It has been improved by a higher level!
"Yes, our troops need this kind of equipment with strong protection. Zhang Ming, what do you think?" Huang Chuanchuan asked Zhang Ming.
Just now, Zhang Ming praised the big eighth wheel brought by the brother factory for a thunderous ceiling. Now, it is this wheeled infantry fighting vehicle. How can Zhang Ming evaluate it? Huang Chuanchuan is looking forward to hearing him
What about words in your mouth.
Zhang Ming didn't know what to say for a moment, saying good things to the car? Isn't that giving him an impression point? However, he can't be too partial here. He quickly organized it in his mind.
Language, then suddenly thought of something, said: "Will doing so increase its self-weight? Will it have an impact on mobility? Will its engine opportunities be difficult?"
The weight has increased, so, has the power kept up? Has the suspension kept up? Otherwise, it would be useless. If you encounter a slope, you can't rush up, and if you walk a bad road, the suspension will break down, that's not
It's reliable.
"At present, we equipped it with a 440-horsepower Deutz BF6M1015C diesel engine. The engine's power is still fine. If you feel that the power is not enough, we can replace it with a new six-cylinder with a capacity of 600-horsepower at any time.
Engines, in short, we can match the size of the troops."
After hearing Wang Erzhu's words, Liu Tiande immediately asked: "Where did you get the new 600-horsepower engine?"
The engines used by both parties are the same, both of which are from Deuts and the horsepower is the same, so Liu Tiande still feels that he is not at a disadvantage, but the other party actually mentioned that the engine with 600 horsepower is still there, where did it come from?
"Our machine factory produces it ourselves." Wang Erzhu said: "It is the diesel engine used in our tanks. When designing, it is a modular design, which can have six cylinders, eight cylinders, etc.
Version, if there is a single cylinder of 100 horsepower, if there is a six-cylinder, it will be six hundred horsepower." Wang Erzhu said with a smile.
The 1,200-horsepower engine used for the tank is currently slowly maturing. At the same time, this is a series of engines, and there are versions of different cylinder numbers, which are enough to meet different needs.
Liu Tiande was stunned.
Wang Erzhu continued to introduce: "Of course, we also know that wheeled infantry fighting vehicles have a big disadvantage. They cannot turn on the spot. If they are in urban combat, it is not easy to turn around in narrow street fighting.
So we specially modified the gearbox to give it a reverse speed of 40 kilometers per hour. If the situation is not good, we can reverse and run away directly."
