When Qin Zhenhua was asked to be responsible for caliber selection, as a technician of the tank factory, what he had to consider was not the issue of which kind of gunfire is stronger, but comprehensively.
So, considering the end, we can find that the filling problem is the biggest problem! Moreover, he will not make a decision on how to choose the specific problem. He is just here, putting out all the problems and solutions, and being present
With so many experts and so many military commanders, you can always give me some advice.
In fact, Qin Zhenhua doesn’t like the plan for loading the turret tent. The turret has not changed, and the whole body of the car will be up, which does not meet the needs of the domestic army with low body. At the same time, the tent can only put more than 20 shells on the tent.
The rest of the shells are still installed in other places, so once the tent is finished, you have to manually move the other places into the tent of the turret. Of course, more than 20 pieces are fought in one battle.
There are probably a lot of shells.
Now, he has introduced the T-72 tank reloading plan. This plan seems to be more complicated, but it does not need to increase the volume of the turret and can also ensure a low body. This benefit is obvious
"The ammunition is deployed on this circle as a whole. If it is hit here, will it bring about the death of the tank?" At this moment, an officer asked.
This circle is just at the seat ring of the turret, and the location of this seat ring should be the weakest place.
"Yes, if you are hit here, the consequences will be terrible. There is a 10-month chance that this turret will fly." Qin Zhenhua said: "We can only increase the protection here, and at the same time, rely on more advanced fire extinguishing and explosion suppression
The system is used to extinguish the possible explosion. However, even the so-called Western tailing-off method is not sure. Therefore, tank soldiers are very respectable."
When a tank soldier looks majestic, in fact, once the tank is hit, the tankers in the tenth place will be sacrificed. But so what? Can you be afraid of sacrifice in war?
Back then, there was a song about tank soldiers, with such lyrics in it. If we were hit, then our tanks would give us a metal grave.
As a tank soldier, I have already made this awareness. It is impossible to ensure your absolute safety. The best thing is to fight bravely and explode the enemy's tank first. Isn't it possible to guarantee your own
Is it safe?
(The T-72's death of the Gulf War destroyed the reputation of Soviet tanks. It even later changed its name to the T-90 tank because the name of the T-72 was already terrible, but this cannot be blamed entirely on the blame.
Its automatic turntable loader is more of a fire-extinguishing and explosion-repressing device that basically cannot work properly and a pot of bad defense capabilities as a monkey version. Later, for example, in the Syrian War, the turret of the T90 tank did not fly,
The magical Leopard 2A4 flying the turret can illustrate the problem.)
"I think the turntable method is more suitable for us among the two automatic loading solutions." After asking this question, the officer nodded with satisfaction and expressed his own point of view.
As the caliber increases, the loader's physical strength is limited, and automatic loader is inevitable. In both methods, everyone almost unanimously likes the latter.
Tank soldiers don’t like big turrets, which means a greater probability of being hit, and tank designers don’t like big turrets, which means more complex designs and larger body weight. Now, two ways
After the introduction, almost everyone voted for the turntable.
At this time, Xie Huimin was thinking quickly in his mind that the duel between these two plans seemed to be a 125mm tank gun, which was more suitable?
No, absolutely not. They have been developing this 120mm tank gun for so long, will it disappear from now on?
Since the 1960s, they have been studying 120mm tank guns. Until now, they have put too much energy into this tank gun and they definitely can't bear to watch this tank fail.
"There are problems with the disassembled ammunition." Xie Huimin spoke: "Our full-assembled artillery shell can insert the bullet rod into the launch cartridge, which can reduce the overall length and also have greater potential.
In this regard, the sub-packed shells are not as good as! With our future development, the rods of armor-piercing shells will become longer and longer, so the potential of the sub-packed shells will be limited in the future."
Now, the tail wing stable shell-out armor-piercing bomb is already the most common type of main armor-piercing bomb. An important indicator of it is the aspect ratio. The larger the value, the stronger the armor-piercing ability!
The overall loading method is to plug the rod into the launch cartridge, but the disassembly is not enough, so he feels that this defect is insurmountable by the other party!
"Now, the Soviet tank guns, although the diameter of the muzzle is larger, their armor-piercing capabilities are not as good as our 120mm tank gun, which is an example," said Xie Huimin.
Although the Soviets' gun barrels were thick, their armor-piercing capabilities were not as good as those of the Western 120mm tank guns. This has been obtained in actual testing. Tanks are used for wars, and tank guns are used to penetrate the enemy's tanks.
Of course, the greater the potential, the better.
This is the point!
Don’t touch the automatic loader! The problem of automatic loading will always be solved, but the theoretical power problem cannot be avoided.
"Yes, this is a problem." Qin Zhenhua said: "So, we need 125mm tank guns. With advanced gunmaking technology, we can develop tanks that withstand chamber pressure far exceeds the Soviets.
With the advanced 125mm barrel of the gun, we can also increase the pharmacy chamber and continue to increase the power of the tank gun. In this way, the performance will definitely be greatly improved. Director Xie, what do you think?"
The ones we use are not original tank guns from the Soviets. Although they are all 125mm tank guns, domestic and Soviet ones are definitely impossible to be universal. Domestic tank guns and medicine rooms must be the largest in the world!
Nothing else can be done, it is always possible to plug in a fired medicine to increase the power of the tank gun, right?
The diameter is 5 mm larger, so the ejection medicine can of course be plugged a lot more!
As for the problem of the armor-piercing bullet rod, it cannot be stuffed into the launch cartridge, and other ways can be found to solve it. To say that the power of the 125mm tank gun is insufficient, that is a one-sided idea.
Xie Huimin was speechless and didn't know what to say. After a long time, he raised his head: "So, are you supporting the 125mm tank gun plan?"
"I just mentioned all kinds of advantages and disadvantages. If you want to make cannons, our second machine factory is an expert. It is up to everyone to decide how to choose." Qin Zhenhua said: "But there is one purpose that will not change.
