Chapter 2223 The death of the leopard continues

A tank being paralyzed and losing mobility is undoubtedly a terrible thing on the battlefield. Google search reading

Specifically speaking, this is no different from an infantryman being shot in the thigh by a sniper and falling down on the battlefield crying for his father and mother to save him. The direct result of being unable to move and losing the ability to maneuver on the battlefield is that he becomes a living target. The probability of surviving can be said to be very slim. It is not unexpected to die on the battlefield, and the same goes for tanks.

The difference is that an infantryman is one life, while a tank is the life of all the people in the vehicle.

Although it is a good thing to be covered by the direct artillery barrage outside the horizon, rather than the direct artillery fire within the horizon, this means that even if it loses mobility, it will not be killed by focused fire.

But a tank that has lost its mobility can no longer move to the edge of the barrage coverage with relatively sparse artillery fire. This is always an obvious fact without a doubt. Being stationary in the central area covered by artillery fire indirectly means that the death rate will greatly increase.

A 132mm Katyusha rocket flew from nowhere, and happened to be in the sea of ​​bullets and fire flying all over the sky. It happened to meet the precious and rare paralyzed Black Panther G, and there was a scream. After the whistling sound, it used a standard parabolic trajectory and hit the Black Panther G's turret root and the car body at the connection point.

The most criticized feature of the entire Panther series by the German army is its fragile protective performance, and this so-called "fragility" is concentrated in the weak protection areas common to all types of tanks, that is, the dome armor and side and rear armor.

So needless to say, the fragile dome protection of the Panther G, which is the last sub-model of the Black Panther series, is ineffective in the face of Katyusha rockets with a bullet diameter of up to 132 mm and a charge more powerful than the 122 high-explosive grenade. No matter what, it is impossible to receive this thunderous blow.

Boom——

Crack bang——

Kaka——

The explosive flames spread from the base of Black Panther G's neck, instantly breaking through Black Panther G's fragile dome armor and tearing open a shocking and hideous wound.

This kind of chemical energy blasting impact, which is close to a zero-distance explosion, directly physically breaks the Black Panther G's dome armor defense in the most violent way, and in the moment immediately afterwards, the burning chemical energy, The overpressure impact, as well as the hot projectile fragments, all flowed into the car along the blasted armor gaps.

The final result was that the unlucky Panther G suffered another "leopard death" after losing its ability to move.

The electromechanical personnel and the driver at the front of the car were immediately smashed into ashes and blown into minced meat. The blast impact from directly above the head sent the two German armored soldiers away "painlessly" on the spot. In an instant that was too late to blink, even a piece of minced meat was hard to find.

Not only did it take two lives on the spot, but the violent chemical energy impact of the blast from almost zero distance was certainly more powerful than that.

The front cockpit of the Panther's car body is directly connected to the fighting compartment in the middle of the car body, without any separation and protection from armored partitions. Like the impact of a fire dragon, the flames instantly swept into the fighting compartment in the middle of the car body and continued to wreak havoc.

Needless to say, using flesh and blood to resist chemical energy blasts will definitely not end well, and it will be the same this time.

The three German armored soldiers, one loader, one gunner, and one commander each, didn't even have time to react before they were engulfed in flames and fire before they felt the fear and pain.

What was swallowed together was not only the flesh and blood, but also the cold 75mm armor-piercing and high-explosive bombs, as well as the fuel tanks filled with gasoline on the left and right sides of the car.

I don’t know whether it was fuel or ammunition that was ignited and detonated first. In short, the violent explosion that followed was indeed earth-shaking and terrifyingly powerful. It even knocked out a 152 that exploded close to the side. The power of the millimeter high-explosive grenade was forcibly suppressed, making it pale in comparison and eclipse.

The Black Panther G's small-headed turret, with its vertical mantlet chin as its iconic feature, took off directly on the spot and became a "Deutsche Lufthansa". In the standard combat state with the hatch cover fully closed, it could not withstand the pressure because there was nowhere to release it. The fierce chemical energy impact burst out from the inside of the vehicle, causing the seat ring to burst into flames and the turret to fly up to an altitude of more than ten meters like a rocket.

Even on a purgatory battlefield where artillery fire and explosions are everywhere, a tank turret that is not small in size and carries a fishing rod main gun is directly lifted up to an altitude of more than ten meters in one breath, taking off on the spot and riding a rocket. The scene can still attract enough attention and attract attention.

There is no other reason, just because this is really "too spectacular".

Just imagine, if the manhole cover in your community instantly flew more than ten meters into the air due to a methane explosion, then you would have to shout "Holy shit!" to express your shock and then watch around. For example, if you witnessed this with your own eyes on the battlefield, Such is the case with Malashenko in a spectacular scene.

"These bastards can fly really high."

"I bet that car's butts flew up into the sky. It's a pity that there are no hooks in the sky, otherwise I could have hung Fasis's butts in the sky hahahaha."

Malashenko only saw the scene of the Panther G flying through his low-magnification wide-angle commander's periscope, while Iushkin, who had a high-magnification narrow-angle gunner's sight, took the unlucky Panther G from The whole process from being hit to the rocket flying head was clearly visible and panoramic, and we enjoyed the most brilliant fireworks show.

Of course, with Iushkin's "slanderous words and evil heart", it was inevitable to ridicule the five German armored soldiers who were "frail and weak in flesh and blood and soared with the vehicle" as a "death prayer".

Although there are not too many scenes like this, it is by no means an exception.

Some of the German tanks were paralyzed and lost their mobility and were covered and destroyed by subsequent artillery fire. Another part were those that were caught off guard after being bombarded and ran away in a hurry. As a result, they were too panicked to choose their way and got into a car accident on the battlefield. They were all running away like others around them. Our own tanks collided with each other on the road, and both stopped and were paralyzed.

It may sound stupid, but that's exactly what happened.

There is no infantry to guide outside the vehicle, the visibility inside the vehicle is limited, and the sudden incident makes people impatient and easy to make mistakes. These can be considered as one of the reasons.

But if you want to talk about the main reason, if the Sandezi armored soldiers in 1944 were not good at a certain level, they really would not be able to do this kind of crotch work. On the battlefield, people were so frightened by a blast of artillery that they crashed into each other. Isn't this an obvious way to make a fool of the enemy and laugh at them?

The Germans can be dishonest, but this is not the reason for Malashenko to pity them. The destruction they deserve will still be hit on the top of the Germans' foreheads with considerable force, causing their brains to burst.

Soon, Malashenko, holding a radio transmitter in his hand, issued the first tactical order as soon as he joined the enemy in the battle.
