Dominate South Asia

One thousand five hundred meters away! Although the ammunition of the T-72 can support such a long distance, the hit rate will be greatly reduced. The Indian armored soldiers still like to fire at a distance of one thousand meters.

However, they did not expect that the opponent would actually fire at a distance of one thousand five hundred meters, and they fired while moving!

If the shells fired by the tank want to hit the opponent, it is necessary to consider factors such as crosswind and shell trajectory. If you want to hit the enemy in motion, you have to consider the speed of the opponent. If you are also in motion, you need to superimpose your own speed. All of this requires advanced fire control to achieve.

The later turrets of the 59 tanks are all bidirectionally stable, but due to the backward fire control, they can only shoot statically against moving. Now, with the addition of Germany's advanced fire control system, they have the ability to shoot the opponent's tanks in motion.

When this shell was fired, it accurately hit the Indian tank. The front armor of the T-72 was easily torn apart like paper, and the armor-piercing shells drilled into it. The metal heat flow detonated the ammunition stored in the tank.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, the turret of the T-72 flew into the sky.

Among all tanks, the T-72 is the most likely to explode. Its turntable automatic loader is located inside the turret, at the turntable position connected to the body of the vehicle. This is the weakest part of the tank. Once the ammunition is detonated, the turret will definitely be blown off.

The 59 tank on the opposite side is still moving forward.

The commander of the 2nd Independent Armored Brigade of Pakistan, Khanbala, is sitting in a 59 tank, commanding the attack of his armored brigade.

"An armor-piercing shell." Khanbala shouted, and his tank also rushed to the front line.

A 120mm armor-piercing shell was stuffed into the gun barrel by the loader.

"Target. A T-72 tank right in front."

"Understood." The gunner's eyes were tightly attached to his sight. In his field of vision, a T-72 tank had already appeared.

He operated the sight to aim at the target. When he operated, the 120mm gun of the turret rotated coaxially with the sight, and the F100A logo appeared in the upper right corner of the field of view. F means that the shells are ready. 100 is the distance, the unit is 10 meters, 100*10 meters is 1000 meters, and A represents the current parameters in the fire control computer is AP, that is, armor-piercing shells. These are the default states after the system is turned on.

When the middle of the Feng character in the sight is aimed at the target, the gunner's right hand presses the rangefinder key. Outside the turret, the laser rangefinder installed with the sight shoots a beam of laser that is invisible to the naked eye to the position of the crosshairs. It flies at the speed of light. Almost in an instant, it hits the tank on the opposite side and then bounces back. Through the round-trip time of the laser, the distance of the position where the aiming point is aimed can be accurately determined. Then, this distance information will be transmitted to the fire control computer. The computer quickly calculates the shooting angle based on the distance obtained, and automatically controls the vertical servo mechanism of the gun to adjust the gun to the corresponding position.

All this was completed in a very short time.

In the past, these were all done based on the experience of the armored soldiers, and experience directly determined whether the shells could accurately hit the target. Now, these have been handed over to the fire control system to complete.

The Feng-shaped crosshairs are close to the target, and the artillery is already above the crosshairs. When the artillery fires a shell, the shell will move in a parabola.

If the opponent is stationary, then now just press the firing button to fire the shell. However, the target is moving at high speed. If you aim directly at the target, when the shell arrives, it will fall behind the target, and you need to set the lead amount.

The gunner continues to control the sight to aim at the target. Since the target is in motion, the turret also rotates slowly following the gunner's aiming, and the crosshairs of the sight are always consistent with the target. Then, the gunner presses the lead amount key, and the turret's angular velocity sensor has determined the target speed based on the turret's rotation speed, and this information is also transmitted to the fire control computer.

The fire control computer calculated the firing parameters and automatically controlled the turret to move to the corresponding position. A red Dynamic lead appeared in the sight, ready to fire!

"Boom!" As the gunner pressed the red firing button on his left, the entire tank trembled violently, and the warhead of the armor-piercing projectile flew out.

"Armor-piercing projectile ready." Although the shooting process is cumbersome, it actually only takes one or two seconds for a skilled gunner. During this time, the commander continued to search around, identify new targets, and indicate the target to the gunner.

The loader stuffed another 120mm armor-piercing projectile into the barrel.

(When I was writing about this 120mm artillery piece, some book friends raised questions in the book review area. It was about the issue of full installation and subassembly. Our country’s current tanks all use 125mm artillery. This kind of artillery and The same as in Russia, they use reloaded ammunition. The so-called reloading, This means that the warhead and propellant are loaded separately and inserted into the barrel one after another. When our country developed the 120mm tank gun, it was fully loaded, that is, the warhead and propellant were combined. , it doesn’t matter which one is better. At that time, our country was pursuing greater For power, the 125mm artillery was chosen, and this 120mm artillery was almost discontinued, and finally became the main gun of the anti-tank self-propelled artillery. However, it is now said that when the tail-stabilized long-rod discarding sabot armor-piercing projectile is used, it can penetrate armor. The power is determined by the length of the bullet core, and the fully loaded artillery shell The core can be made very long, for example, reaching more than 2/3 of the total length of the shell. In fact, part of it is stuffed into the propellant, while the core of the separate artillery shell will be shorter, which directly determines the depth of armor penetration. , so it is considered that under the same conditions, the fully installed type is more powerful than the separated type)

The battle between tank crews is full of tension and ruthlessness.

"Brake!" Suddenly, the driver shouted loudly.

Following his shout, the driver in front stepped on the brakes hard, and the steel belts on both sides tightened the brake wheels. Amidst the harsh sound, the tank body suddenly stopped, and the loader did not stand still. His head hit the gun port in front hard, and he bled immediately.

"Boom!" In the periscope, right next to the car body, only half a meter away from the track in front, the warhead of the armor-piercing projectile flying at high speed pierced the ground. The huge kinetic energy caused a big hole to explode in the ground, shaking it. It was simultaneously transmitted to our own tank.

What a risk! If it hadn't been discovered in time, it would have been penetrated by this armor-piercing projectile.

"Attention, 2nd Brigade, maneuver to both wings immediately!" Brigadier Khan Bala shouted on the radio.

Now, the distance between the two sides is as close as 500 meters. Even without fire control, you can still shoot with your own experience. The 59 tank has only improved the artillery, but not the propulsion system and armor. Once it gets closer, it will be detrimental to itself.

Moreover, once a melee breaks out, the A-7 attack aircraft in the air may accidentally hit our own side.

Therefore, although the brigade commander wanted to rush in, fight with the Indians, and destroy more tanks, they were supporting roles in this attack. Their mission was to stop the Indians and give the fighter planes in the sky above their heads a chance. Win opportunities. Therefore, they must retreat to both wings.

The turret was at 90 degrees. During the retreat to the two wings, the 59 tank continued to use its own tank gun to destroy the Indian armored forces.

The Indians narrowly escaped death and lost a large number of tanks. When they continued to retreat, they encountered Pakistan's second armored brigade in the Burdine area.

India's armored forces continued to suffer losses. When they learned that Pakistani aircraft were coming to attack, the Indian Air Force dispatched again.

The last time the ten Mirage 4000s were flown, I thought I could save something, but the Mirage 4000 still failed. Therefore, the current Indian Air Force only has Mirage 2000 and MiG-29 as the main force.

The Indians are almost sending out these two types of fighter planes. They want to help their army troops and save their fate of defeat. At the same time, some of them will go to bomb Karachi.

The main force of the Pakistan Navy is staying in the military port in Karachi, especially the aircraft carrier that is being renovated. The Indian Navy has suffered heavy losses, and the Pakistan Navy should suffer the same losses!

The basic structure of the Mirage 2000 and Mirage 4000 is the same. The Mirage 4000 can be regarded as a double-shot larger version of the Mirage 2000. The weapons they carry are also the same.

This French-style fighter has excellent air combat performance, especially close-range dogfighting capabilities. The inherent advantage of the delta-wing fighter is the instantaneous pointing ability of the nose, which directly determines that the ability to lock on enemy fighters will be greatly increased.

However, the weaknesses of this kind of fighter are also prominent. Due to the serious lack of engine thrust, although it has excellent instantaneous pointing ability, its stable hovering ability is the weakest, and the energy lost quickly cannot be replenished. Therefore, as long as it is not shaken in the first blow, this kind of fighter will soon run out of energy. The double-shot Mirage 4000 makes up for this weakness to a great extent. The single-shot Mirage 2000 will be beaten because it has no energy.

Of course, the Indians do not know the weaknesses of this kind of fighter. In their eyes, the advanced electronic equipment and ergonomics far exceed that of Soviet fighters. This kind of aircraft is no worse than American fighters.

It's just that the Tomcat fighter jets' long-range interception capabilities are so good that they are unable to enter mid-range and close-range battles. Therefore, they can only adopt forced tactics. (To be continued ~^~)
