"Everyone, have you seen it? That's our tank." Huang Chuanchuan said, pointing to the row of tanks in the distance.
Those tanks were almost driven out of the tank factory less than a month ago. The outer shell of the tank was painted brightly, and it could almost reveal a shadow. It was very enviable at first glance.
Look at the tank on Damao. The earliest one has been running for more than ten years. It is windy and sunny. Although the tank is not rusted, it is already very old. The two tanks are put together.
In comparison, it makes people feel even more moved. Didn’t this Russian tank come out of the tank cemetery? It’s not easy to run after all.
Looking at the new tanks, Kozlov's eyes showed an envious expression. Back then, when the Red Empire was still in its prosperous period, the Soviet tank troops were renewed very quickly, Kozlov remembered it very clearly.
My own troops were replaced with T-64, and it took less than five years to replace them with T-80. At that time, many tanks eliminated from the Soviet Union were piled directly outside, forming a famous tank cemetery. But now,
What? After ten years, they have not equipped a new tank at all! Although their tanks have been overhauled and updated some equipment, they have already looked old after all.
Thinking of this, he felt a little missed in his heart, missing the disappearing empire.
Now, Kozlov is like this, looking at the tanks of the Eastern Power with a complicated mood, so he ignores the difference between this tank and the previous tanks, until his tank stops and waits until he gets off his own.
The tank discovered the strangeness of the tanks of the Eastern Powers, and immediately said in surprise: "Have your tank changed to a new turret?"
The tank turret is not a casual game, but a design style that has been finally formed after years of development. At the same time, in the long process of development, all internal components of the tank have also stabilized, so
It is not that easy to change. Just like an old Russian, he has always cast turrets and has formed a trend. Even if he wants to change it to a welded turret, he doesn't know how to improve it. He always feels that it is better to cast
The turret is easy to use, and the internal parts are also designed according to round cast turrets. If it is changed to a square welded turret, many parts need to be redeveloped.
But now? The Oriental Power is one after another, constantly improving. The turret in front of you is very powerful, and the wedge-shaped front armor is full of power at first glance, which makes people look envious.
Sure enough, this turret bra is just a fool. The Russians were fooled and thought it was a new turret! Huang Chuanchuan asked Kozlov: "Our tank has a T-72 on it.
Shadow?”
Of course there is no more! Now it looks like a brand new tank! Huang Chuanchuan asked this and expressed dissatisfaction with Kozlov's evaluation.
"The turret is completely different from the T-72, but if it is the chassis, I don't know." Kozlov said, still stubborn.
That is, at the military parade, there was a V-shaped waveproof plate on the chassis of the 98 tank. This structure was similar to the Soviet tanks, so it was criticized for imitating the T-72. However, it was also a 98 tank.
Now, this 96 tank does not have that structure at all.
"Chassis? The cockpit of the T-72 tank chassis is in the middle, and our cockpit is on the left." Huang Chuanchuan pointed to the front of the car body and said to Kozlov: "Can this be the same? Look again, although we are also
Six pairs of load bearing wheels, but the diameter of our load bearing wheel is 750 mm. I wonder what the diameter of your load bearing wheel is? It seems to be 780 mm. Also, the width of the track is also different. Look at the back, we are using our own.
The T-72 tank developed uses a supercharged engine. These should be different? From front to rear, where is our tank similar to the T-72?"
Huang Chuanchuan's words are like a cannon, one sentence after another, making the other party unable to react at all. Each one is different from the T-72. After all, if the current 96 tank is traced to its roots, it comes from the past.
The 122 tank, the tank at that time, was independently created by the Eastern powers and had nothing to do with the Soviet Union. Therefore, the tank that has been formed now has nothing to do with the T-72.
Kozlov's face turned pale, but, embarrassed to admit his mistake directly, his eyes turned and continued: "Your turbocharged engine is also improved on our engines, yours
Tank engines all come from our B2 engine.”
In fact, this sentence is not wrong. The technology of tank engines of the Eastern Power really started with the B2 engine. However, if it is necessary to say that the tank engines of the Eastern Power are still the same as those of the previous B2, it would be a big mistake.
Very wrong.
"Okay, then let you take a look at our engine and open the engine cover!" Huang Chuanchuan said.
Whether a tank is a new tank that has been shipped out of the factory or an old tank painted with paint that pretends to be a new tank, it may not be seen outside, but just look at the engine and you can know.
Almost every engine of the Russian tank will leak oil, and the outside is greasy. After opening these tanks of the Eastern Powers, the engines inside are clean, and the nameplate on them is not exposed to the air for a long time.
If it is oxidized and turned black, it is completely new.
Pointing to the engine inside, Huang Chuanchuan said, "You open your eyes and see clearly, or you can measure it with a ruler. Is our engine the same as the B2 engine?"
Although they are all V-shaped and have an angle of 60 degrees, the cylinder center distance of our engine is larger, which is for better heat dissipation. Now, the size of this engine is different from that of the B2 engine.
It is obviously wider, and this is still the case now. After the 1,500-horsepower engine is successfully studied, the 96 tank will definitely be equipped with an eight-cylinder diesel engine. At that time, it will be even less than the B2 engine.
It's related.
Although Kozlov is driving a T-80 tank now, he is very familiar with the B2 engine of the Soviet Union. Now, listening to Huang Chuanchuan's introduction and looking at the engine inside, it is true that there is a difference between it and the B2 engine.
of.
There were great waves in his heart. Over the years, the technology of the Eastern powers has developed very quickly. They have gotten rid of Soviet technology and walked out of their own path.
"Yes, it's not the same. I took back what I said." Kozlov finally gave in.
