Chapter 1299： Coaxial secondary gun (1/2)
, The fastest update to the latest chapters of the Third Reich!
At this time, the turret of the mouse tank turned a hundred and twenty degrees, and the flying 122 mm shell hit the side of the turret of the mouse tank just right.
At this time, the included angle was also 120 degrees. This terrible armor-piercing bullet came into close contact with the nickel alloy armor, and then, swish, bounced away.
Yes, there was a ricochet.
This 122mm tank gun was originally improved from the cannon. After being equipped with tanks, most of them are grenades. The proportion of armor-piercing shells is quite small. Since the navy has naval guns of the same caliber, the navy has instead stocked a large number of them. 122mm armor-piercing ammunition, so now, these Stalin tanks have sufficient armor-piercing ammunition.
How deep can the 122mm armor-piercing bullet penetrate? At the current level of the Soviet Union, it would not exceed one hundred and fifty millimeters. When converted into German armor steel, that would be about 130 millimeters.
The side armor of the mouse tank is more than one hundred and fifty millimeters thick, so even if it is hit from the front, there is no problem. As for now, it was just a mere splash, and it did not cause any damage to the rat tank.
The turret continued to rotate, and finally, the muzzle was facing the rear, that is, right in front at this time, on the Stalin tanks that were moving over!
A well-trained German tanker can prepare for shooting in less than ten seconds!
After turning around, Hans quickly aimed at the differentiation board of his sighting device, and it took almost three seconds to complete his preparations for shooting.
”Fire!” With the shout, Hans stepped on the trigger under his feet, and the 128mm armor-piercing projectile flew out of the turret whistling.
”Loading!” Before the gun smoke inside the turret cleared, the loader began to move the shells, ready to load the next shell.
Hans is still observing his target, and Kurt has already started to observe the surroundings to see the whereabouts of the four tanks, the time left for him is too short! The 128mm armor-piercing projectile hit the turret of the Stalin tank. This tortoise-like inclined armor can bounce the opponent's projectiles to the maximum, but it is also the favorite of blunt-headed armor-piercing projectiles.
The 128mm shell, without any advanced type, is the most common blunt-headed armor-piercing shell. When it hits the turret, under the huge kinetic energy, the entire turret shook violently, and even the car body was hardened. After being hit, it retreated several tens of centimeters, and the track slipped on the ground, and two gullies appeared.
Caliber and power are definitely not simply proportional. The performance of a 128mm armor-piercing projectile is at least five times that of a 50mm blunt armor-piercing projectile.
Now, just under the violent impact, the Stalin tank was already unbearable, and then the blunt-headed armor-piercing projectile started to drill inward quickly on the cast turret.
In front of it, a big hole appeared, and in an instant, it penetrated the main armor of the Stalin tank and got inside.
”Boom!” Under the impact of the 128 mm armor-piercing projectile and the ensuing heat flow of countless broken armor, the ammunition inside the tank immediately exploded terribly.
At the seat ring of the turret, a hot air flow radiated out, pushing the turret up half a meter high, and then fell down.
There can be no survivors in this Stalin tank. All tankers have died, including Yuri.
The sacrifice of Yuri's crew was to buy time for the other tankers. The other Stalin tanks, with full power, moved quickly toward the mouse tank.
