Grushko was unfortunate, he fell from the tank, and Grushko was lucky, because he fell, so he escaped the terrible fate.
The tail wire of the Tao-type anti-tank missile was continuously being released, and its body turned gracefully, and then pierced through it.
For the tank, the weakest is the top of the tank. If it is the later Tao-2B, the operating software is improved, and the flying altitude is one meter above the aiming baseline, so that this missile can attack the top of the tank. But it can't be done now. It is a direct aiming weapon, which is flying towards the side of the tank.
If you deal with ordinary flying projectiles, while the opponent is firing, the emergency brake will be able to make the opponent’s advance estimate wrong and cause the firing to fail. However, for anti-tank missiles, this method is much more difficult to handle. Up.
Because a missile can change its flight trajectory, if it is an airplane, it can also rely on high mobility to avoid an incoming missile. For a tank, its mobility is almost negligible.
In this way, in front of the Tao anti-tank missile, the round turret got closer and closer.
Then, the warhead of the TOW missile came into close contact with the turret. At the moment of contact, the piezoelectric ceramic sheet in front of the warhead was squeezed violently. Following that, the internal circuit moved, and a strong current entered the front. In the warhead.
"Boom!" At this moment, there was a violent explosion of the 3.6 kg energy-concentrating warhead.
There are different ways to deal with armor. The most common one is armor-piercing bullets. This is a head-to-head contest.
The armor-piercing projectile uses a thin and long bullet core, relying on a huge speed, to pierce the inside of the tank vigorously, and always stick in. When the bullet core enters the interior, the armor piercing is completed.
The bullet core is a hard metal rod without any explosives. It seems that it does not have much lethality. However, in the process of penetrating the armor, the temperature generated by friction exceeds thousands of degrees. This is definitely a The scary thing, just the bounce of it entering the tank, it has already blurred the flesh inside, not to mention some melted armor fragments that followed it, and the thousands of degrees of ** rushed over. Are you afraid
However, such armor-piercing projectiles must have sufficient speed, even if it is not less than one kilometer per second, most of them are above 800 meters per second.
Missiles will not work.
The speed of anti-tank missiles is 300 meters per second. The kinetic energy at this speed is very low. It is impossible to kill by kinetic energy. How can low-speed ammunition penetrate the armor
Fortunately, this problem has been resolved. During the Second World War, the energy gathering effect was widely used, which is definitely good news for anti-armor operations.
Now, at the moment of the explosion, the explosive inside was burning violently. In front of the explosive, a conical metal cover began to play its role. This copper alloy cover had a cone facing forward. , The tip of the cone is facing backwards. At this time, the metal cover is melted by the high temperature into a high-speed metal jet, which is focused to the center of the hollow part like a concave mirror, and a beam of thin metal jets shoot out from the front end!
Kinetic bombs use movement to penetrate armor, while anti-tank missiles use this metal jet to penetrate armor. This copper metal jet hits the armor, burning the armor, and burning a small hole in the armor. .
When the outer steel armor is burned, it is the composite armor on the inside. The Soviet Union spared no effort in the research and development of tank technology. The T-64 can be said to be a model of the early use of composite armor. This kind of internal indeterminate filling is rapidly consuming the energy of the metal jet.
If the energy of the metal jet is exhausted and it has not penetrated the armor, it will fail to penetrate the armor. If it penetrates before that, it will successfully break the armor.
But now, the metal jet was scorching fiercely, and continued to rush inside, breaking through the additional armor, and then the inner armor. Then, the front had become empty, it had burned through the entire armor, and entered the tank!
What is the effect of the hot metal flow? There was a thin jet on the outside, but when it came to the inside, in an instant, under the impact of this metal jet, a big fire ignited inside!
The ammunition inside was ignited first.
"Boom!" In the huge explosion, all the 125mm cannon shells carried inside the tank were ignited. High-temperature and high-pressure gas emerged from the top hatch. However, this small hatch was basically It cannot satisfy the catharsis of the airflow, so the airflow is still looking for other channels.
At the seat ring of the turret, bursts of flames emerged, and the turret had been lifted!
Grushko landed on the ground, only a few meters away from the tank. His body was very painful, but when he heard the huge movement of the tank, he immediately reacted.
"Do not!"
The two companions who were chatting together just now, fighting and living together are already dead. When the tank explodes, there can be no more lives inside, and even their complete bodies cannot be found.
This tank ignited a big fire, illuminating everything here, illuminating the tank that is slowly leaning up behind it. For the Soviet tank unit, this is simply a nightmare.
The one in the back did not know what was going on, so he continued to operate according to the original plan, and the first tank in front was destroyed again. This narrow road can only accommodate one tank, which means, The following tanks have no way to retreat, no way to go. They are exposed to the opponent's attack range, and they will definitely be killed!
Sure enough, the gunship on the opposite side would not miss the opportunity. Just after completing the guidance of the first missile and accurately hitting the target, Matsushita Saburo immediately launched the second Tao anti-tank missile.
Fire!
The missile dragged the flames and flew forward. At a distance of three kilometers, they are absolutely safe. At this time, they can hover here leisurely and kill all the tanks in front!
In this way, the road here is completely blocked, and the Soviets will either retreat along the same road, or wait here for the fate of being annihilated!
The second TOW anti-tank missile flew past quickly, and then the second tank burst into flames.
"Awesome, we should have equipped this kind of helicopter long ago!" Behind him, the pilot Ozawa said excitedly. At this time, even if the fuel is in danger of flying back to the base, they will continue to fight until All eight anti-tank missiles were shot out, which is simply a good anti-tank weapon!
