Infinite Doomsday Start Draws Luodu Mechanic

"Everyone, are you ready?"

Minerva: "Alright!"

Sarah: "Yes!"

Tia: "Don't worry, Lu Ge!"

"Very good!" Ruger, who was sitting in the driver's seat of the tank, nodded, "Let's go!"

Boom~

With the roar of the engine, Ruger drove a huge, more than 50 tons of modified Ferdinand heavy tank destroyer from the mysterious underground laboratory back to the underground city. Google search reading

This country's tank destroyer has been mentioned before. The main gun is an anti-tank gun, without a turret or the turret is immovable.

The name of the Ferdinand heavy tank destroyer comes from Ferdinand Porsche. Well, it is the Porsche of the future sports car brand.

This person's main business is car design, and he was recruited to build military vehicles during World War II.

The most famous work is the Porsche version of the Tiger, which competes with the Henschel version of the Tiger heavy tank designed by Henschel.

But because it used a more advanced but unstable electric transmission system, the Porsche version lost in the end, and the Henschel version became the Tiger I, which was once a big name.

However, dozens of Porsche versions were produced, and after improvements, they became the Ferdinand heavy tank destroyer.

This is the precious "toy" that the ghost leader E52 left for himself in the ghost laboratory.

But if it is the original Ferdinand tank destroyer, this thing does not meet Luger's combat needs at all.

As we all know, tanks are offensive vehicles, and the corresponding tank destroyers that are specially designed for anti-tank are actually defensive vehicles.

So there are only tank destroyers but no tanks in this secret arsenal.

So the ghosts used tank destroyers to ambush Luger before.

But now Luger and his four men are going to rush out of the ghost dungeon, and even rush out of the evil cave full of nightmare monsters. Using a defensive tank destroyer is not a good match at all.

Let's say it's an anti-tank gun. Who is it going to fight? Machine gun crab? Or another Cyberdragon?

So under Ruger's modification, this main gun became the 88mm rapid-fire mortar howitzer.

In fact, this modified Ferdinand should be called a self-propelled artillery or self-propelled mortar howitzer.

In addition, the chassis derived from the Porsche version of the Tiger heavy tank was also greatly modified by Ruger.

Although Ruger also wanted to say that the 1970s and 1980s had passed from World War II to his era, and the electric transmission was not mature at that time, but it should have matured later.

But the fact is that the main battle tanks of his era still did not use electric transmission.

The so-called electric transmission means that the transmission system uses electric drive.

This seems to be nonsense.

If you have fiddled with the engine, you should have heard of the speed, which is a very important performance unit of the internal combustion engine.

This is because the direct movement mode of the engine's output is the rotation of the crankshaft.

After that, the transmission device is needed to transmit this rotation until it is transmitted to the drive wheel to make it rotate.

The device responsible for transmission in the middle is the transmission device.

The transmission device of early tanks was mechanical, which is the kind commonly seen in steampunk and other genre films, with a large gear set in a small gear.

The initial rotation is transmitted to the power wheel by the mutual drive of the gears.

Electric transmission is to transmit the movement to the power wheel through the motor.

The simplest electric transmission is that the main engine rotates and generates electricity at the same time, and the chemical energy of the internal combustion engine is converted into mechanical energy of the crankshaft movement, and then converted into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction.

Finally, the power wheel is driven by electrical energy to drive the entire vehicle.

The biggest problem is that the efficiency of electrical energy conversion is not high, resulting in insufficient output and poor stability of the entire equipment.

Ruger himself cannot solve these problems.

At most, he transplanted a more mature hydraulic transmission in later generations.

But it doesn’t matter. As a Chinese with a red family background, Ruger firmly believes in one sentence: If we don’t have guns or cannons, the enemy will build them for us.

The two Maybach HL-120-TRM engines on the Ferdinand Tank, which had a total of less than 500 horsepower, were really unusable.

The two big guys together are just slightly stronger than the monster engine of his muscle car.

On the one hand, you can imagine how abnormal the power of American muscle cars in the late 1960s and early 1970s was.

On the other hand, it is enough to explain why Ferdinand has the title of "Scrap Iron Man".

It has electric transmission, but the two engines are still so useless.

But it doesn't matter if the original engine is not powerful, the kind-hearted ghost leader E52 has already given an improved version.

That is the engine of the two tank chassis that it uses as skateboards for its Cyber ​​​​Barbarian Dragon.

Although one was blown up by Minerva's "Save Your Mother", the cost of repairing it in the short term will be relatively high, but the other one was recovered intact by Ruger.

The engine used in the chassis is actually the MT-902V-10 10-cylinder multi-fuel engine of the Puma Infantry Fighting Vehicle.

Moreover, there are two of them.

The maximum horsepower of a single engine of this type can exceed 1,000, and 2,000 horsepower is enough to give Ferdinand a completely different mobility.

What's more, the original Ferdinand weighed nearly 70 tons, so it could only run at a speed of 20 to 30 kilometers per hour with less than 500 horsepower.

But after being greatly reduced in weight by Luger, mainly by replacing the armor plates with new models and changing the main gun, the vehicle now weighs only 50 tons.

The power is enhanced to four times the original, and the weight is reduced by nearly one-third accordingly. The speed of this guy is naturally incomparable.

Ruger tested it a little in the underground maze. If the ground is flat enough and does not collapse, it is no problem for this car to run 70 kilometers per hour.

It can be said that if the main gun is ignored, and the chassis sports performance is only considered, the tank modified by Ruger can reach the level of third-generation main battle tanks such as Leopard II tanks.

Of course, there are gains and losses.

In order to have stronger mobility, Ruger replaced the full set of decks and even attached explosive reaction to key parts.

This is a considerable investment.

In addition, anti-tank guns do not need turrets, but self-propelled mortars can rotate, so this place has also been greatly improved by Ruger.

In the end, except for Ruger himself in the cockpit and Tia still operating the mortar in the gunner's position, the other two female heroes can only hang themselves on both sides of the turret through the fixed hooks on the armor.

There is no room for two fully armed people in the car body.

Fortunately, one of them was holding the HK417 that Ruger had sent out, and the other was holding the 7mm heavy machine gun that Ruger had used before, which was mounted on a power exoskeleton.

As a result, the two of them became secondary weapon pendants of the tank, which was quite interesting.

There were three weapon operators, so Ruger, the driver, didn't need to be armed.

But how could he hold back his desire to fight?

Especially if you have seen the Ferdinand tank destroyer, you will notice that it is like a heavy self-propelled artillery, with the main turret at the rear of the chassis, leaving a large space in front.

If the main gun was still the original large-caliber anti-tank gun, nothing would have to be mentioned.

But now that Keshan Valley has been replaced with a rapid-fire mortar howitzer with a caliber of only 20+, Ruger has much more space to use.
