All kinds of technical problems will be solved easily. After the lightening of panther tanks, there is no need to worry that the technology is too advanced, which will cause an arms race in other countries. You can safely and boldly equip them in Germany, rather than just deploy them in the desert.
At the same time, because the basic skeleton is still there, in the later stage, when the war needs, armor can be added at any time to become a medium-sized or even heavy tank again.
In the next seven or eight years, with the development of metallurgical technology, high-quality torsion bars should pass the technology? At that time, replace the torsion bar again, and the upper body can bear more weight!
At that time, it will not only be 30 tons, but also develop to 40 tons like the Panther tanks of later generations!
Even on the basis of panther tanks, it can be further upgraded to become the majestic tiger type or even the King Tiger tank of later generations!
Now, first reduce the technical requirements and become a 20 ton tank!
In addition to temporarily reducing the requirements and allowing a large number of service, another aspect is to become an excellent crawler chassis. On this chassis, other deformed vehicles can be developed! Such as self-propelled artillery, Spitfire tanks and so on.
Hilrick thought of many benefits in his mind, so he finally made up his mind: "since the quality of torsion bar can not be improved now, in order to manufacture a large number of our tanks, we can consider reducing the self weight of the tank and becoming a 20 ton tank. Small batch production of our 30 ton panther and large batch production of 20 ton tanks. Well, name it Panther 1 and Panther 2 respectively. "
In short, the No. 1 tank with only two people can never be put into production in large quantities. It is too backward. It can only solve the problem of whether it exists or not and can not give the armored soldiers confidence!
Now the 20 ton tanks are very similar to the No. 3 or No. 4 tanks in history. Let's talk about the number first!
However, although the requirements are reduced, another requirement cannot be changed.
"Our tanks must remain versatile." "This simplified Panther 2 tank needs to maintain more than 60% versatility with the prototype panther, and all parts need to be standardized to meet the needs of mass production," hirek said
generality! Standardized design!
The Sherman tank of the United States is one of the representative masterpieces.
The United States has strong industrial productivity. Sherman tanks are not completed by one manufacturer. Various standardized parts are produced separately by various manufacturers.
The production factory is only engaged in the production mode they are good at. After the production of all standardized parts is completed, the parts constituting the car body have a high degree of compatibility.
These methods made Sherman tanks one of the largest tanks in World War II, with a production of 49234!
On the contrary, if you look at Germany, there is no systematic and standardized design and manufacturing.
Look at No. 1 to No. 4, they are different. Just look at the walking mechanism, No. 3 and No. 4 are also different. No. 3 is a large load wheel and No. 4 is a small load wheel. In the back, the tiger style, panther and so on are also different.
Streamlined production is the premise of mass manufacturing! In this regard, Germany's system engineering is really zero!
Therefore, in hilrick's mind, he had already begun to plan, straighten out military production and civil product production, facilitate the conversion of people to military use in wartime, and establish a standardization and unification committee to unify the standards of various industrial products in production.
These are very important, otherwise there will be a tragedy that two tanks, aircraft, warships and other parts of the same model cannot be interchangeable in the future.
At the same time, establish the Commission of science, technology and industry for national defense, the general equipment department and the General Logistics Department, unify the equipment manufacturing and process level, and adopt the assembly line industrial production method of the United States. Otherwise, with the urine of those arrogant engineers, any preparation will often lead to the tragedy of adding water and noodles, then mixing noodles, not adding water and then mixing noodles!
In World War II, the various parts of German tanks were almost non universal!
Now, let's start with the Panther tank!
In addition to the standardized production of car body and suspension, the engine is an important point!
The current 12 cylinder V-type diesel engine has existed against the sky in this era. It can stably output 500 horsepower. This diesel engine will be the main power of tanks in the future!
Based on this kind of diesel engine, a series of diesel engines are developed to unify the standards of cylinder and piston, so that a large number of production and manufacturing can be carried out! For example, the current 20 ton tank does not need a 500 horsepower diesel engine. It can replace the V12 engine with V8. In addition to the changes of cylinder block and crankshaft, many other parts can be used in general!
You can even make a V6 engine for cars, armored vehicles and so on!
"In addition to the torsion bar, there is also the problem of gun barrel. We process and produce the current long tube 75mm tank gun, which is quite time-consuming." Gustav said, "if we replace it with a 50mm tank gun, we can greatly improve the production progress."
Now, although the tank has been reduced to a 20 ton level, if it is seen by Britain and France, it will still arouse vigilance. This kind of firepower is too abnormal!
It's not so shocking to replace it with a 50mm tank gun. Moreover, the production process is greatly simplified and the production efficiency can be improved!
When the turret was designed, it has been considering the problem of universality, which is convenient to replace 88mm or even 100mm tank guns in the future. Now, it is quite simple to replace 50mm tank guns.
Shrek nodded: "Krupp should come up with a plan as soon as possible. After the prototype car is OK, it will be put into production in large quantities. We have been waiting for several years and can't wait any longer."
Gustav agreed: "in this way, the cost of each new Panther may be reduced to less than 100000 marks."
Historically, the cost of the panther was 117100 marks, the type 4 tank was 103462 marks, and the tiger was 250800 marks. The Panther is only 10000 marks more expensive than the type 4 tank, the performance has doubled, and the cost performance is still very high.
Now, if the application of standardized large-scale assembly line production, it can significantly improve the efficiency and reduce the cost. Gustav is fully confident to reduce it to less than 100000 marks. This is only a rough estimate and will even be reduced to less than 80000 marks in the future.
"Minister Chirac, your proposals have solved the current problems. However, we have another problem that we must pay attention to, that is, our rubber source." Said Kenny Bergkamp.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
