The tires of all wheel drive off-road heavy trucks are covered with soil. At this time, they are already busy on a flat land as their temporary launch position.

If you look at the appearance, this off-road heavy truck is taller than ordinary off-road heavy truck. Just look at its tires, it is bigger than ordinary military heavy truck, which is as tall as a person! The pattern on it is very deep.

Among them, the front two axles can be steered. This is a four axle vehicle, which has one more steering axle than the off-road heavy truck. Moreover, the four axles are almost equally spaced.

All this means that this kind of truck is extremely special.

The front of the car is not big. It only accommodates two passengers, while the back carriage is completely wrapped with tarpaulin. You can see that it's round. I don't know what it is.

There were 20 launching vehicles in the whole position. At this time, around them, there were more than 50 wheeled infantry combat vehicles and more than 500 soldiers guarding the outside. They were all in full battle readiness with the most advanced mp38 submachine guns.

In an off-road vehicle, several personnel came down. Although they were also wearing military uniforms, their look was less murderous and more rigorous.

V-2 missile has been studied for many years, but now is the first live firing. Braun took pains to lead the team in person in order to ensure the accuracy of firing.

At present, the German rocket research is led by Goddard. The scientist invited by hilrick from the United States has been studying rockets tirelessly and has become a leader in Germany. Braun has also matured rapidly under the leadership of Goddard.

However, Goddard was old after all, and Braun was just then. Moreover, Goddard most wanted rockets to conquer space, not as weapons, so Goddard did not follow.

During the Libyan experiment, the rocket was directly launched from the concrete platform. However, if you want to deploy the V-2 missile into the actual combat, you need to transport and deploy it quickly.

In this case, they need to have an integrated tool for transportation and launch. Therefore, they made contact with China and put forward requirements. This special vehicle was produced in China.

The purpose of the tall tire is to make it have better off-road ability. At the same time, the main body of the vehicle is improved from the original off-road heavy truck. At the same time, the horsepower of the engine is increased. This special transport launch vehicle has become the main force of unit 14. If you look at it from the appearance, it is already very similar to the Scud missile launch vehicle of later generations.

The function is also very similar, transportation and launch!

At this time, Braun is quite busy. When they arrive here, the first step is to determine the coordinates here.

It is absolutely appropriate to use it in launching rockets. Only when you know exactly where you are, and then according to the position of the target, can you calculate the correct trajectory for the V-2 missile.

In his hand, he held a special device, the sextant. This kind of marine equipment can now be used on land to determine longitude and latitude. At the same time, a car behind him is also equipped with a radio locator. A variety of equipment are used comprehensively to improve the measurement accuracy.

At the same time, in addition to him, some officers and soldiers of the army are also using instrument positioning like him. They worship these coming experts very much. Now, it is just an opportunity to learn and improve.

At the same time, other missile soldiers are also preparing quickly. Several vehicles similar to oil tankers have started. The missile soldiers are wearing gas masks and ready to refuel.

In the past, missiles used alcohol and liquid oxygen. These things were non-toxic, but liquid oxygen was low temperature. But now, the fuel of missiles has been replaced by unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine and nitric acid. These things are highly toxic.

At this time, they are waiting for the final order.

Before the last minute, they can't refuel the missile because these things are corrosive. If they refuel and the launch mission is cancelled, even if they pump out the fuel, they will cause some damage to the missile.

Now, they are ready and waiting for the order.

More than ten minutes later, Braun accurately measured the coordinates of his launch position. At the same time, the radio also sent orders, launch missions, targets, opposite the British air force base, and London!

Calculate now!

The missile soldiers got into the launch vehicle, and there was a control room in the front of the launch vehicle.

In front of this special launch vehicle is the cab. At the same time, there is a space behind the cab. This space is the control room for launching missiles!

Inside, there was a special shooting director, a big guy like them. They set their own coordinates and target data. The big machine was spinning. Based on the meteorological data, they calculated for more than ten minutes. Finally, the data needed for shooting was calculated.

While they determined the firing data, in the back, the missile soldiers in charge of refueling were absorbed and began to fuel the missile.

Drag the pipe and connect it to the open gap on the side of the missile. At the moment of docking, a small amount of gas leaked out.

Missile soldiers with gas masks are used to this. The fuel car behind them makes a buzzing sound, and the fuel pump quickly fills in the fuel.

When the pipe was pulled out, a white gas came out again.

"No. 1 is filled."

"No. 2 is filled."



"Stand up!"

The missile fuel is loaded on the launch vehicle, which is more convenient. Now, after loading, the hydraulic cylinder of the launch vehicle slowly lifts the missile. When the missile is vertical, a steel plate protrudes from the rear of the launch vehicle as a stable launch platform.

"Gyro start."

Braun watched. Many of these soldiers had been trained in Libya. Now, they have mastered every instruction very well.

The flight of ballistic missile depends on gyroscope to determine the state of missile, detect various signals and send out various instructions. It can be said that gyroscope determines whether the missile can hit the target.

"The gyro starts normally."

"Fuel pump on."

"Launch countdown."

When the fuel pump is turned on, the launch enters an irreversible stage. Under the action of the fuel pump, unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine and nitric acid flow into the rocket engine. In an instant, a stream of white gas emerges from the nozzle at the tail, which is the steam of nitric acid. Then, a small flame in the combustion chamber ignites.

"Fire!"
