During the trip to the Soviet Union, Cialek went very smoothly!

The most constructive thing is to reach a series of trade agreements with the Soviet Union, using domestic minerals and energy to exchange German industrial products, including warships!

This will bring more job opportunities to Germany!

At the same time, as a witness of friendship between the two sides, Cirik's visiting team, after staying in Moscow for a few days, before leaving Moscow, Cirik asked to go to the tank manufacturer for inspection. As a result, the Soviet side actually agreed!

Although Cirick now wants to communicate with Koshkin, the two of them will be sworn brothers. When Stalin purges, he will kill this guy directly for treason, and T-34 will definitely have a miscarriage.

Unfortunately, it is only 30 years now, and Koshkin is still studying at the Leningrad Institute of Technology. Koshkin's glory is still ten years.

Now, the main tank design and manufacturing agency of the Soviet Union is the Kharkov Communist International Locomotive Factory.

The factory here has specially built a special T2 workshop to produce tanks.

At the same time, the tank design team formed in 1927 has become the core of the newly established T2K Tank Design Bureau led by Ivan N-Alecsenko, and engineers involved in the design, manufacturing and testing of T-12 and T-24 tanks have also joined in.

And now, the latest model they have developed is the T-24 tank!

This is a medium-sized tank with a total combat weight of 18.5 tons and a crew of 5 people. When he saw the tank being assembled in the workshop, Guderian looked at it very seriously.

If, like later generations, Germany was still restricted by the Versailles Treaty until now, then Guderian would be quite envious of his Soviet counterparts, who already had such advanced tanks!

But now, Guderian is looking for trouble with everyone. In Guderian's eyes, this tank looks like there are problems everywhere.

For example, this tank uses a large row of small-diameter load-bearing wheels, which is simply inherited from the suspension mechanism of the bulldozer, which makes the maneuverability of this tank quite limited.

What's even more fatal is its turret, which is a multi-turret tank.

The main turret is equipped with a 45mm tank gun, and there is also a machine gun turret on the main turret. There are also 4 7.62mm machine guns installed on the main turret, secondary turret and the front of the vehicle body.

The firepower is strong enough, but it's useless!

Tanks have to do tanks! What should tanks do? Attack, attack, attack! Therefore, tanks require large-caliber artillery! They require fierce firepower. As for machine guns, there is no need to be so many!

At the same time, this multi-turret tank is quite tall and runs faster and is more likely to overturn!

The leader of the design bureau, Alecsenko, said to the visiting staff: "My German friend, this is our latest tank, what do you think?"

One of the important reasons why the Soviets dared to show this kind of tank to the Germans was that this kind of tank failed! Only dozens of them were mass-produced in total!

Based on this tank, the further developed T-28 has entered a state of service.

In terms of tanks, Germany has been ahead of the Soviet Union for ten years!

And now, why are you here? Of course, it is not to mock your opponents, but to take them into the ditch.

Looking at Alecshenko with a calm expression, Cialique said, "Godrien, look, how about the tanks of our Soviet friends?"

Guderian had already prepared and immediately said: "I don't think so. The suspension mechanism of this tank is too backward and it will definitely not be fast."

Cialic's face suddenly changed: "Godrien, how did you speak?"

As the two sang together, Alecsenko first reacted: "Mr. Cialick, don't blame Mr. Guderian. He was right. The mobility of our tanks is very poor. I don't know what Mr. Guderian thinks is the best suspension?"

The Soviets had poor tanks, at least the Soviet Union had tanks, but what about Germany? Germany could not build a tank now! Alecshenko wanted to listen to the other party's opinions, whether he was talking nonsense or really capable.

"Of course it's a combination of wheels and footwear. I don't know if you have heard of it. The American Christie designed and manufactured the M1928 tank, also known as the T3 Christie tank. The suspension device of this tank should be the most advanced."

Tanks during World War I, such as MK and A7V, had no suspension at all, and could only drive at low speeds. As a companion for infantry, and if the tanks want to advance at high speed, they must have appropriate suspension devices.

After World War I, an American engineer named Walter Christie designed his first tank. He first used a balanced suspension device on the two load-bearing wheels of the tank and added springs. This balanced suspension device made his tank much more advanced in balance than tanks of various countries during the same period.

After several developments, now, a tank that has finally been created that satisfies the US military. Not to mention the appearance of this tank, it is advanced only by looking at its suspension.

This tank uses 4 large-diameter load-bearing wheels, the driving wheel is rear-mounted and there is no pulley. It connects the load-bearing wheel and the body with a large coil spring. The last load-bearing wheel is in a horizontal spiral state, thereby increasing the stroke of the load-bearing wheel.

When its second load wheel is in a highly compressed state, the remaining three load wheels are still in an extended state. This allows it to reach a high speed of 44 kilometers per hour during driving.

Moreover, the so-called combination of wheels and footwear means that its load-bearing wheel is made of rubber. When the track is damaged, the load-bearing wheel can still speed normally and drive faster. When the road surface is in good condition, it reaches 75 kilometers per hour!

Although this tank was taken into consideration by the US military, it was quickly abandoned because the suspension of this tank required a large amount of space, resulting in a small internal space.

However, the Soviet Union liked this kind of suspension very much.

Last year, after the Soviets realized that all models of tanks and weapons could not be produced by their own industries alone, Voroshilov, a member of the People's Committee of the Army and Navy and Chairman of the Revolutionary Military Commission, suggested sending a delegation of military-industrial enterprises to visit abroad to gain experience and technology in technology and equipment.
