Skoda engineers on one side remained silent.

Any product is soaked with the efforts of engineers. For these Skoda engineers, their tanks are like their children. They are eager to produce all their tanks.

However, they also know that this is impossible. Compared with German tanks, their tanks are too backward. For example, the armor is still riveted. When the other party's shells come and hit the rivets off, the flying rivets are the biggest damage to the tank crew.

"Using our streamlined production method, the subordinate factories assigned to Skoda Arsenal are manufactured separately, and then assembled here." Kenny pochamp continued: "we have estimated these days that in the first three months, we should be able to produce 50 vehicles per month. After being proficient in the later stage, we should be able to produce 100 vehicles per month. In this way, Skoda Arsenal can produce thousands of panther 3 tanks for us every year."

Sherrickton was happy for a while. The output here has reached thousands of vehicles every year, which is a great number, which is equivalent to doubling the output of our own tanks!

This means that by the end of this year, Germany can reorganize ten full Armored Divisions! If it is delayed for another year, Germany will be able to reorganize 20 full armored divisions by the end of next year!

With these twenty armored divisions, we can sweep the whole of Europe! Of course, Shrek is confident that the Panther tank of this era is absolutely invincible! It took more than ten years to mature, and the performance is five years ahead of the whole era!

"Well, what about the chassis of these tanks we originally produced?" Asked the Skoda technician.

Hearing the other party's questions, Kenny bokemp also looked at Shrek. Of course, Shrek had to make up his mind.

Abandon all these tanks? Of course not! After all, they have all been produced. It would be a waste to return them all at this time!

In fact, if Germany does not have the strength in recent years, this lt38 tank has been regarded as advanced equipment. Up to now, this ten ton tank is actually blank in the German equipment sequence. The lightest Panther 2 tank in Germany also belongs to the 20 ton tank, and will be transformed. It will be improved according to the 40 ton Panther 3.

Due to the high indicators, the output of this tank is not large. Even in wartime, the factory will turn into 24-hour continuous production, and the output will only be doubled at most.

When fighting the Soviet Union in the future, the Soviet Union always relied on the tank sea, and the number of tanks in Germany was always at a disadvantage.

Therefore, it is a waste to abandon these existing tanks directly or throw them to the second-line troops.

Second line troops, just have a Mauser 98 rifle. What tanks do you want?

As his mind went round, a new thing came to mind.

Hunter tank destroyer! This is an excellent anti tank weapon formed by simply using large inclination armor and erecting a long tube 75mm tank gun on the 38t tank chassis.

It is not a self-propelled gun, because it often charges with tanks. It kills each other's tanks by relying on the mobility brought by high speed and the protection brought by large angle armor!

This weapon only appeared in 44 years. At that time, Germany has changed from attack to defense and needs more anti tank weapons. This unique assault gun has become the treasure of the German army. Its output is very high. At the beginning, Germany set the goal of producing thousands of vehicles per month, while Skoda can produce four or five hundred vehicles per month at the highest time.

In terms of quality, German tanks are enough, but in terms of quantity, they can't be satisfied. Therefore, it's better to transform the existing chassis, including the manufactured lt-35 tanks, into this kind of tank fighter!

This is not a big hole in hilrick's brain. This tank fighter is famous in history. Even the Allies praised the excellent performance of this tank fighter.

Now, Chirac has carried out his own explanation on the transformation of this tank into a tank fighter vehicle, and even drew several sketches. The inclination should be large, the tank should be low, and the caliber of the tank gun should be large. You can choose from the existing tank guns in Germany. This modified combat vehicle has only one task, that is, to kill the enemy's tanks!

Xierik's explanation won the respect of the Czech military workers present. They all said that general xierik was omnipotent. Now, with such a transformation, our chassis will be more useful, and even continue to be produced in the future!

At the same time, this is also a proposal, and other modifications can be tried, such as armored personnel carriers.

Hilrick's inspection successfully solved the problems related to tank production and formulated policies. Some personnel studied how to refit tank fighter vehicles, while others began to transform the whole tank production workshop to prepare for the production of panther tanks.

After completing the inspection of the tank department, Shrek continued to inspect the huge Skoda Arsenal. The next item is Skoda's light weapons.

In this era, the zb26 light machine gun produced by Skoda is famous! It is no stranger to everyone who is familiar with the war of resistance against Japan, because this machine gun shines brightly on the battlefield of China!

Only the Brno factory in the Czech Republic exported 30249 zb-26 light machine guns to China between 1927 and 1939. China imitates and produces more of its own. This zb-26 light machine gun is about 100000 on the whole Chinese battlefield. In Anti Japanese war films, you can often see the machine gunner holding this Czech made light machine gun. The magazine on the top is its most obvious feature.

The light machine gun even won an order from the British army to use a 7.7mm caliber. Its original caliber was 7.92 mm.

Yes, it is exactly the same as the existing 7.92 Mauser bomb in Germany!

Simple structure, low cost and powerful firepower are the advantages of this light machine gun. As for the disadvantages, there are too few magazines for 20 rounds, and placing magazines on them can block the line of sight.

Now, Germany also has an advanced light machine gun, MG34. In terms of performance, the performance of this light machine gun exceeds zb26. Should Brno Arsenal stop production of this light machine gun and fully produce MG34?

Xierik's arrival reassured them. Facing the supervisors and engineers here, including hallick, the designer of zb26, xierik solemnly told them: "the performance of zb26 light machine gun is good. This light machine gun can continue production."

(for the previous question, the 7.92mm ammunition in stock will not be wasted. After all, there are squad machine guns, all of which use Mauser bullets, and second-line troops. Those who continue to use Mauser rifles are changed to 6.8mm caliber, because this is the best caliber, the power has not been reduced, and a small caliber will save a lot of raw materials. As for the original production line, change to a new caliber, should it be to change the mold? Ask those who know to solve their doubts.)

(according to the information found by Huadong Zhixiong, the main parts of the bullet, such as warhead shell, bullet shell, primer shell and tracer tube shell, are in the shape of a cup with a bottom. Its processing needs to use one of the most widely used processes in bullet production - "drawing processing", to produce parts with different shapes and wall thicknesses, as long as the shape and size of the mold are changed.)
