Chapter 36 Mutual Shooting

Sheila couldn't believe that the other party's t-62 paused for a moment at a distance of 1,500 meters. I'm afraid every tank soldier knew what this pause meant. The brief pause meant that the other party was about to open fire.

T-62, when can it be fired at such a distance? Are they wasting shells? Iranian armored soldiers drilled in the chief's tank thought contemptuously.

At the same time, the various commanders of the t-62 tank issued the order to open fire together.

Almost at the same time as the T-62 fired the shells, the chief also started to fire.

The shell drilled out of the cannon bore in 0.1 second, threw off the bullet holder behind it, stretched out four tail fins, and pierced armor-piercing bullets, like fast-moving darts flying towards the other side.

Almost at the same time, the t-62 tank began to accelerate like a desperate attempt.

The most effective way to deal with flying armor-piercing bombs is to maneuver quickly. The shells are not missiles, they are aimed before launching. As long as the tank moves forward for a distance at this time, it can successfully avoid the opponent's shooting and survive the rain of bullets.

The Chief's 120mm cannon is quite powerful, and as long as it hits, there is no possibility of survival.

And their 115mm smoothbore cannon is difficult to tear apart the chief's front armor at such a long distance, and their world is within one thousand meters.

However, the captain of the T-62 tank was not a fool. They aimed at the back of their heads at their chief.

When the tank was designed, the armor in different thicknesses were different. The thickest part was the front armor, followed by the side, and the weakest one was the rear armor.

Since the chiefs lined up need to deal with enemies from three sides, Sheila had to separate his tanks against enemies from three directions. In this way, turning to the enemy on the left will leave the back of the turret to the enemy on the right.

The chief's turret was welded, which was different from the Soviet Union's emphasis on low turrets. European tanks and turrets were taller, so that people were more comfortable to stay inside, and it was easier to store some ammunition at the back of the turret.

However, this design undoubtedly increases the area of ​​the bomb.

Although the accuracy of the t-62 aiming is not very high, they have a numerical advantage, using a battalion of tanks against the tanks of an opponent's company, three to one. The chief has the advantage of the fire control system, and their shortcomings are also obvious, that is, they cannot move and can only stay there and be beaten.

They had no time to pray to Allah, and after firing the shells, everyone was immediately busy, except for the driver. They loaded the second shell again and prepared to continue shooting.

The driver of t-62 is the most focused. They use their hands and feet, shift gears, accelerate, and get out of the dangerous area just now.

The Iranians were too cunning and opened fire at the moment they paused, and they seized the opportunity quite accurately.

The three major indicators of tanks are firepower, maneuverability and protection. Although the engine of t-62 is not very powerful, the body is lighter and the maneuverability is slightly better.

However, this is a swamp, and the wet soil restricts the acceleration of t-62.

The most unlucky thing is that when several tanks fired shells, due to their strong recoil, the rear of the car body was trapped in mud, and the tracks were spinning weakly, but they could not climb out.

The shells from both sides flew over each other almost at the same time.

A t-62 that is struggling hard, every time the driver recharges the accelerator, the tank body of dozens of tons will tremble upwards, but it cannot break free from the muddy land.

Just as the chariot was furious, an armor-piercing projectile penetrated the unlucky t-62. A huge metal heat flow penetrated into the turret. The three inside were shot to death in the heat flow. Then, the armor-piercing projectile entered the turret, and the ammunition that was about to load into the cannon chamber was detonated.

"Boom!" After a loud noise, the tank's turret flew into the sky, and the pilot in front was immediately shattered and bleeding from his orifices, losing his life.

Compared to T-62, the opponent's chief was not much better. Many of the huge back of his head were hit by armor-piercing bullets.

The chief used packed ammunition, and placed about twenty launching drugs at the back of the turret. These launching drugs immediately became powerful bombs.

The chiefs ended their mission amid the explosion of shells and rested on the newly paved concrete floor on the swamp.

Sheila had to hear a huge explosion coming from behind. He didn't care about so much, and then ordered his own battalion to continue shooting!

Thanks to the more advanced fire control system, the Chieftain's tank's first minute fire rate is 8-10 rounds, but this is only the theoretical fire rate. In fact, it is subject to many restrictions, among which the largest limitation is the physical energy consumption of the loader.

Each tank has four members, one driving in front, there are three people in the turret, the commander is responsible for commanding, and the gunner is responsible for aiming. The most physically consuming loading shells is the work of the loader. In a small space, he endured huge noise. The loader was waiting for the shell shell after it was fired to automatically exit the cannon chamber and ejected from the car body, then loaded the warhead, loaded the launching medicine, and closed the door turns. The physical energy was consumed very much.

At this moment, a very strange scene appeared. The tanks surrounded in the middle were firing shells frantically, but they were like fools, staying still, allowing their tanks to be destroyed at the next moment. They seemed to have just pulled a few more cushions before they died.

T-62 is constantly attacking, and their shortcomings are also obvious. Although they just launched shells at a distance of 1,500 meters, the hit rate is very low. On average, six shells can only hit a tank. Therefore, they are all trying hard to drive forward and shorten the distance with the other party.

Ali was covered in dust. His tank had just fired six shells in succession, but failed to hit one tank. It was a shame for the tank soldiers. The Elard of his company almost shot perfectly, and one tank killed four chiefs.

Now that I have rushed within 800 meters, it is time to show my power!

Alibaba abandoned the inoperable fire control system and used his own method again: visually aim!

Sometimes, my eyes are still reliable.

He rotated the Captain's periscope and counted the numbers above.

"The secret position is 253, the distance is 682, and one armor-piercing bomb." He shouted.

The gunner then aimed with a periscope, adjusted the shooting elements, and completed the preparations before shooting.

"Fire!" The gunnerman pressed the launch button fiercely.

"Bang!" The huge vibration shook them into gastrointestinal disorders, and an armor-piercing bomb flew out of the cannon chamber.

"Battery Commander, we can't stay like this, we have to move. We are tanks, not bunkers!" Sheila heard such a voice in the radio.

Sheila suddenly realized that he had made a serious mistake. There was no such stupid commander of the armored force. He let his tank stay and be beaten. The tank had to move!

It was too late. His armored battalion had only five tanks left, and the retreating road was blocked.

"Storm down and kill the hateful Iraqi tanks!" Sheila finally gave a seemingly wise order.

"Boom..." The driver was already impatient and could move the chief, finally no longer passive and launched his own counterattack.

"Everything that can move will be destroyed!" Mohammed also made a ruthless move, and more than a dozen of his tanks were killed.

After leaving the cement road, the driver suddenly felt that the huge chief was beginning to become uncontrollable. Without the pull rod, the body of the car was involuntarily tilting to the side. His feet stepped on the accelerator, and the body of the car did not accelerate accordingly.

In contrast, the lighter t-62, although walking is difficult, it will not lose control. The advantage of maneuverability and flexibility is revealed again.

t-62 turned to the chief's side, and effortlessly beat the chief to smoke.

An encounter ended in twenty minutes. At this moment, the chief was almost wiped out. Except for two of the thirty-six tanks, the rest, were destroyed, and the others were killed.

More than 100 T-62s also lost nearly twenty, but this did not infringe the 35th Brigade's enterprising aspirations because they won.

Before Mohammed could say a few inspiring words on the radio, he saw a large number of tanks coming from afar. It turned out that what they had just wiped out was just a forward. Judging from the situation, there were at least one hundred and fifty chiefs!

At this time, the battle just now had already made the attack formation of t-62 chaotic.
