Chapter 656

When akado got up the next morning, he was in a good mood. After all, last night, he had a good time with Mercedes and Anna, two beauties. He didn't have many chances to enjoy the happiness of the whole people. In the morning, he was very happy. Under the service of the two beauties, he changed his clothes and went to meet the officers of the weapons design bureau.

He would like to hear a progress report on the army's latest weapons. The person who came here is the famous Col. Desmond, who is now the project chief of tiger king tank. After all, Stalin tanks have caused casualties to German soldiers on the front line. In akkado's view, the development progress of German weapons must be more accelerated.

Because tiger king tank adopts a large number of new technologies in design, akado also stipulates that the design department must pursue the reliability and practicability of weapons, and also take into account the simplicity of production. This increases the design cycle of tiger king tank.

In fact, the most troublesome problems for German tank experts are mostly concentrated on the turret. Among them, the 105 mm caliber gun on the tiger king tank and the moving firing stability system are the most troublesome. Either the weight of the whole gun system exceeds the standard, or the reliability is too low, leading to frequent system problems.

Akado knows about this, because it has something to do with the turret design of German tanks. Because considering the level of protection, the German tank turret front is using heavy artillery shield, and it is a huge shield with terrible thickness. It is very difficult to adjust the tank gun with huge artillery shield by using the shooting stability system.

In another time and space, the U.S. Sherman M4 tank also has an artillery stabilization system. However, the thickness and weight of the artillery shield of the Sherman tank are not in the same level as that of the German tank. The weight of the stabilizer is relatively small. Even so, there are still some problems in the reliability of the artillery stabilization system.

"My head of state." Like most middle-level German officers, Desmond has a fanatical worship of akkado. As a famous German engine expert, he also has his own unique research on artillery and many weapon systems. When he walked into the office, he stood respectfully at the door and gave a German salute to akkado.

"Ah, Colonel Desmond, it's a pleasure to meet you." For the truly capable personnel, akado is willing to give enough respect. He is willing to forgive the betrayal of Einstein, and is willing to pimp Turing, who has a special hobby. In fact, that is enough to explain everything.

"My head of state, it's really embarrassing for you to take time out of your busy schedule to urge the research progress of tiger king tank. Please believe me. I promise you with my life that I will start the official mass production of tiger king tank within one month." Desmond stood in front of akkado and began to report the design progress of tiger king tank. He was a technician with outstanding ability, so the introduction was very fluent.

The chassis design of the whole tiger king tank was completed very smoothly. After all, Germany has very rich experience in tank design, and akkado checks and suggests new tanks with the vision of previous generations. The lower body of the whole tiger king tank can be said to be the model of the classic main battle tank of later generations.

However, due to the limitations of the times, the method of relying on composite armor to reduce the weight of the tank can not be realized in a short time. Therefore, the front armor of the tank is designed with uniform steel armor, and the chassis weight of the tank slightly exceeds the design requirements.

Another problem is focused on the diesel engine of the tank. This kind of engine with new materials is satisfactory in reliability, performance and output power. It is simple and convenient to manufacture. It is more than enough to make up for the weight increase of tiger king tank. The only depressing thing is the slightly higher fuel consumption, which leads to the fact that this new tiger king tank only has a maximum journey of 210 km, which is 150 km less than the leopard tank's 360 km maximum road journey.

German tanks generally don't use the auxiliary tank outside the tank, so it seems that the journey is relatively short. But in fact, the common journey in this period is this number. It can't be said that both tiger and leopard tanks have short legs.

"The key problem is still in the turret." Desmond is a little frustrated when he talks about this. His technical department has been studying around the turret all day, and has not been able to work out a reason. What's more desperate is that the 105mm caliber gun does not match the current shooting stability system, with frequent failures and low efficiency, and there is no way to meet the stringent equipment standards formulated by the head of state.

"The night aiming system is fairly stable, and it can also be put into actual combat for testing. If you can't, you can cancel the design. After all, it's not the main aiming system. " Desmond talked about the turret, complained about the 105mm tank gun, and then mentioned the infrared night vision.

"There are so many problems in the development of 105 mm tank gun?" Akkado thought that it would be a piece of cake to study the 105mm tank gun in Germany, which was able to develop the classic 120mm tank gun in later generations. As a result, akkado was caught off guard, and the problem just lies in this gun.

"My head of state, this cannon is a cooperative project between Rhine Heavy Metal Co., Ltd. and Krupp Co., Ltd. under the white orchid group. The results show that the penetration performance and destructive power are amazing, but the recoil force and weight are not satisfactory." Desmond said helplessly: "especially the weight, if only the artillery itself is acceptable, but the tiger king tank's shield..."

Akkado thought about the solution of later tanks, and suddenly came up with a sentence that made Desmond laugh and cry: "well, Colonel Desmond, if the German tank cancels the artillery shield, can it reduce the weight of the artillery and then install the shooting stability system?"“ My head of state. " Desmond continued to explain to the head of state who did not know whether his idea was too advanced or just an idiot: "if the anti shield is cancelled, the frontal protection performance of the tank turret is bound to decline. Even if a solution is found, the structure should be redesigned, and there will be no result in a period of time."“ Well, what about installing the same 88mm cannon as the Tiger tank? " Akado finally decided not to continue to take risks on the tiger king tank, but to adopt a more conservative design idea: to put it bluntly, it is to use the relatively mature gun system at this stage to accommodate the more advanced new design of the turret“ To be honest, my head of state. It's not impossible to use the 88mm cannon, but we have studied this scheme in private. We have to admit that this can solve many technical problems and make our tiger king tank more reliable and faster. " After a change of the subject, he continued: "however, at present, the Soviet Union is expanding the production of advanced Stalin type tanks in the east line. The protection level of this kind of tank has been greatly improved compared with that of our enemies in the past. Moreover, this kind of tank is equipped with updated 122 mm caliber guns, which are as powerful as our tank guns..." "it doesn't matter, We will continue to intensify research on the 105mm caliber guns, and the first batch of tiger king tanks will first use 88mm caliber guns and step up service as soon as possible. " Akado waved his hand and said: "there is no evidence that the German tank guns are unable to cope with the imminent threat. Even the 75mm tank gun can not break through Stalin's tanks! " In fact, in the most conventional tank firing distance, German tanks can almost break through Stalin's tank armor. Moreover, the German army now has armed helicopters, a new weapon against tanks, and the demand for new tank guns is not as urgent as expected. As a matter of fact, the 75mm caliber artillery generally equipped by German tanks has already had a record of destroying Stalin tanks, so akado is not worried that Stalin tanks can suppress German armored forces“ But it's a pity after all. Tiger king tank is a work that I've put a lot of effort into. This kind of tank makes me absolutely not perfect. " German's stubborn temperament appeared again. The obsessive-compulsive disorder of pursuing perfection once again made Desmond feel uncomfortable. He quickly stood up and said to akado, "why don't we continue to try..." "only God has the perfect weapon. We just have to do the best we can, If our soldiers don't have better weapons than their opponents, they won't fight. That's really a hopeless thing Akado said with a smile: "moreover, we can improve our weapons until they become perfect!"“ I hope so. After all, I really want to present a perfect weapon to our soldiers. They are willing to die for this country, and we have to try our best to keep these warriors alive! " Desmond said a little depressed. After all, his last work, the Tiger tank, can definitely be regarded as the classic work of tank design in the whole world. It successfully combined the various performance of the tank in a balanced way, making the German lead the opponent by a whole section in the tank“ You're right, but you can't rush everything! " Akado stood up and was very satisfied with the performance of his subordinates. He patted the engine expert on the shoulder: "believe me, in the afternoon, let's go to the production workshop of tiger king tank. When mass production begins, I still hope to see it with my own eyes." He led the way to the door of the conference room, looked back and said to Desmond with a smile, "sometimes compromise is not shameful. It can save more soldiers' lives. It's not a bad thing for us, even if we bear some such humiliation, right?" "You are right, my Fuehrer!" he said Wallow and sell cute, ask for monthly ticket on the last day!
