The flight principle of the helicopter determines that its speed will not be too high, but its vertical take-off and landing makes it a great progress without the help of a special runway.

Now, there is no really qualified helicopter in the world, and the improvement of the helicopter finally glows with the glory of life under the promotion of Chirac.

These days, Shrek has been busy commanding the war on the eastern front. For him, he is mainly responsible for formulating strategies, and the tactics are determined by the lower commanders without too much interference. Moreover, he also believes that these generals under his command will live up to his hope.

After inspecting the helicopter and putting forward many suggestions for improving the helicopter, hilrick got another exciting news before he returned to his fortress.

"Head of state Chirac, we have found the reason why our armor piercing shells can't penetrate Stalin's tanks." Albert Speer, who is in charge of military production, said.

In the battle on the front line, Germany's new tanks were majestic and attacked cities and territories all the way, while the main force of the Soviet T-34 had been proved to be a backward product and could only be resisted by the sea.

However, the Soviet's new Stalin tank surprised the German tank soldiers. Germany's ace weapon, sub caliber armor piercing projectile, was ineffective for this kind of tank.

Fortunately, from the battlefield, they captured an almost complete Stalin tank, which was immediately transported back to the rear and sent to the artillery experts of Henschel and Krupp for research.

"Their tank turret is too tilted." As a representative technical expert of the military, kenipokamp also participated in the analysis. At this time, kenipokamp made a detailed analysis through the shooting and playback of high-speed cameras in the shooting range of hensher company.

The former T-34 was just ordinary inclined armor, but now Stalin tanks have developed this inclination to the extreme and become a terrible tortoise shell.

The narrow space inside the tortoise shell was a disaster for large Europeans. Even the Soviets began to find some small heads to be tank soldiers.

Now, this hemispherical tortoise shell, the more upward, the greater the inclination, is simply the most smooth bullet avoidance shape.

In this way, when the armor piercing projectile flew over, it was directly bounced off like floating in the water, and a serious bounce occurred.

At the same time, it can also be explained that the advanced sub caliber armor piercing projectile is invalid, but the blunt head armor piercing projectile previously used can have a good effect, because the blunt head armor piercing projectile has a positive effect, which can reduce the inclination angle and even turn into vertical penetration.

However, the turret was too thick, and its own blunt armor piercing projectile could not penetrate it from the front. In this way, the Soviet tank posed a new challenge to the German technicians.

"It seems that we can only install our 105mm tank gun." A technician said: "the 88mm tank gun can't break through, and the 105mm tank gun is absolutely no problem."

The development of German tank guns is upgraded in the order of 75, 88105. Now the main force in Germany is 88mm tank guns, but the pre research of 105mm tank guns has already begun.

"No." However, Alfred objected to this proposal: "our 105mm tank guns are still confidential. In particular, the electroslag remelting steel and barrel self tightening processes proposed by head Chirac have not been fully mastered and can not be pushed out. In particular, our army is heavily equipped with 88mm guns. If we directly replace them with 105mm guns, Our insufficient production will also bring great waste. "

Changing the caliber of the main tank gun is not so simple. Now, the 88mm tank gun still has great potential. How can you change a new tank gun when you encounter a little twists and turns?

The German idea is not to brush the caliber.

Look at Stalin's tanks. Using 122 mm guns, the caliber is large and the power is not small. However, the amount of ammunition is too small and the loading is too slow, so they are not suitable for tanks at all.

"Yes, we'd better improve the armor piercing bullet. This difficulty won't embarrass us." "I suggest that the analysis of the failure of tank shells on Stalin's tanks be submitted to head of state Chirac immediately. I believe our head of state will provide us with more appropriate ideas," Kenny pocamp said

This is unbelievable. When the artillery experts present are helpless in the face of the problem, they actually want to ask their own head of state to solve the problem. This is their shame.

However, they are proud that their head of state is omnipotent. When the first caliber armor piercing bullet was put forward by head of state Chirac, the scheme of using the sabot simply subverts their understanding. They are old experts, but their admiration for head of state Chirac is absolutely from the heart.

Now there are problems that they can't solve, and head of state Chirac must have a way.

Of course, there are ways. Just when they have held two consecutive days of meetings to discuss solutions, the instructions of head of state Chirac finally came.

The instructions were sent by telegram. There were not many words, only a short line:

Improve the tail structure to reduce the body rotation.

With this instruction, Kenny pocamp patted his head. It's stupid. Why didn't you think of such a simple solution?

A word awakened the dreamer.

Why does it bounce? It has a lot to do with the other party's turret structure. The inclination is large. The shell is hit obliquely, which makes it easy to be bounced off. At the same time, there is another reason.

It's the shell spinning.

Rotation will stabilize the shell, which is a great invention. When the firegun was first used, it flew 100 meters away. With rifling, the bullet rotates and the trajectory will be extremely stable.

Since then, until now, both guns and guns have rifling, which is stabilized by rotation.

It's nothing when the blunt head armor piercing projectile is used. After all, the projectile body is thick, but the current sub caliber armor piercing projectile is different. Its essence is the shell piercing projectile. The projectile body is slender and rotates, but its stability will be reduced.

Objects with the same diameter but different lengths are more unstable when they are longer on the premise of the same speed. Now, this disadvantage has begun to be highlighted when German artillery experts want to further increase the aspect ratio.

On the other hand, when it comes into contact with the other party's turret, the warhead rotates too fast and is easier to be bounced off.

If this reason is found, there will be an improved scheme.

Reduce the rotation of the projectile body, so as to reduce the probability of bouncing. Trial produce according to this idea immediately!

This is the principle of future generations. Shelling and armor piercing projectiles are all tail stable shelling and armor piercing projectiles, because later generations are almost all smooth bore guns. There is no rifling in the gun barrel, and the shells go out and are stabilized by the tail, which is similar to the bow and arrow.

However, in the 1970s and 1980s, the main force of NATO was the 105mm wire bore gun. This gun also fired the tail stable shelling armor piercing projectile. After flying out, this tail helped reduce the rotation and reduce the rotation speed of hundreds of thousands of revolutions per minute to thousands of revolutions per minute.

In fact, the stable armor piercing projectile launched by the breech gun does not rotate when flying. The deflection angle of the tail can give a rotating force to the core, and the rotating speed of the core is about thousands of revolutions / min.

It can be seen that thousands of revolutions per minute is the best rotation speed of slender projectile, which not only maintains stability, but also reduces the possibility of bouncing.

(there is also the saying of sliding elastic belt. East China Zhixiong doesn't have much contact. I hope he can greatly solve his doubts. He has also made two technical chapters. I hope you won't get bored.)

Now that you have the idea, let's start the experiment!
