308 Mr. Salesperson
When the second-tier M4 tanks started their engines, a row of new-looking Ireland Hill helicopters swept over the human positions at a low altitude.
These gunships are loaded with rockets, and in the A/A49E-7 rotating turret equipped on the nose is an M197 3-barreled 20mm Gatling cannon produced by Tubao Company. This M197 type The Gatling was basically a three-barreled version of the Vulcan and eventually became the standard turret weapon for this new gunship.
In order to control the recoil and achieve the design goal of rotating fire, the cannon installed on the AH-1 armed helicopter has reduced the rate of fire. The theoretical rate of fire is 750 rounds per minute, but it can only fire 16 rounds. 750 rounds.
When performing battlefield suppression tasks, this aircraft can carry four 19-unit 70mm rocket launch nests, which are installed on the short wings on the fuselage, which can provide very powerful fire suppression.
The AH-1 armed helicopter was born in the 1960s, and the current industrial level of Ireland Hill can be processed and produced, and it is equipped with a T400-CP-400 "double-engine" engine produced by the North County Engine Factory, which is very powerful. .
The T400-CP-400 engine system basically consists of 2 Pratt & Whitney PT6 turboshaft engines and a shared gearbox, also known as PT6T-4. The total output of the "dual engine" is 1140 kilowatts, or 1530 shaft horsepower. When a single engine fails, the "dual engine package" system can also provide enough power to maintain normal flight.
In fact, the "twin engine package" can provide a maximum output power of 1340 kW (1800 shaft horsepower), but it was abandoned because the transmission system could not handle such a large power. As a result, both engines of the T400-CP-400 are limited in power during normal operation. In this mode, the other engine will automatically output maximum power when a single engine fails.
The AH-1 gunship can carry more than 1023 liters of fuel, which can guarantee its hovering time over the battlefield.
Because Ailan Hill's industrial capabilities are very strong, this armed helicopter that has just entered service is also equipped with some electronic equipment, which can be said to be the most advanced and powerful weapons and equipment in the army's hands.
These gunships swept across the battlefield, and then began to pour out the ammunition they carried. The rockets shrouded the entire battlefield densely, and the slight advantage that the demon had just gained was suppressed in an instant.
A helicopter gunship hovered in the sky, constantly strafing the dense enemy with its revolving cannon. The demonic troops, who were arranged in a phalanx, braved the hail of bullets, and the bullets hit the magical defense barrier above their heads, leaving vertical and horizontal ripples like raindrops falling into the water.
suddenly,
A fireball flew out of the demon's phalanx and hit a gunship directly. The huge flame engulfed the helicopter, causing the helicopter to crash down in flames.
Other gunships evaded, no longer simply hovering in mid-air, but began to evade these deadly threats.
In the chaotic battlefield, an M4 tank ran over the black flames on the ground and protruded its turret from the reverse slope.
"Aim at the target! Find a big one to fire!" Averting his eyes from the periscope, Mr. Salesperson pressed the throat communicator and shouted to his gunner.
The gunner didn't even turn his head, he pressed the fire button and fired a cannonball. With the sound of "Boom", the entire tank trembled slightly. The recoil of the 90mm caliber long-barreled artillery was very ferocious, and of course it was even more powerful.
An armor-piercing bullet was shot out of the muzzle, and then rushed forward in the air. It only took a moment to hit the powerful magic defense barrier in front of the demon army phalanx.
Because of its extremely fast speed and strong impact, the shell pierced through the magic defense barrier, and then hit the heavy shield held by the sturdy demon more than 3 meters high.
The huge force made it easy for the cannonball to penetrate the shield made of steel more than 2 centimeters thick, leaving sputter-shaped scorch marks on it, and a hole about the size of a fist.
In an instant, the tall demon holding a shield was directly pierced through the chest by an armor-piercing bullet. The whole person was torn in two due to the terrifying tearing force, black blood splashed everywhere, and broken pieces of meat flew across the crowd.
The surrounding demons didn't have time to see what was going on. Behind the demon who was beaten in two, the second poor demon was also shattered by the armor-piercing bullet before he could let out a scream.
Followed by the third and fourth soldiers, the heavy armor and strong magic defense did not help them resist the powerful attack, so they had to pay the price of their lives.
The shell pierced through 5 people in one go and stopped, and it completely destroyed everything it passed along the way. The remaining demons continued to move forward, not caring about the death of their comrades in front of them.
They stepped over the corpses of their comrades, holding up their heavy and terrifying weapons, as if they were about to compete with the tanks of Elan Hill.
"Armor-piercing bullets! Continue loading!" shouting at the loader, the salesman put his eyes on the periscope again in frustration. He has to observe the surrounding situation, after all, in this small place, the vision is really not very good.
"Fire!" With an order, the M4 tank fired another cannonball. The shell of this projectile was pulled out of the cannon and fell on the floor in the tank, still steaming.
No one cared to take a look, the loader put the third armor-piercing projectile into the barrel in front of him, and then closed the breech smoothly. The next second, he completed his actions and shouted loudly, "Filled!"
In his snoring, the gun body of the 90mm caliber high-power long-barreled artillery suddenly sat back again, and then another steaming shell shell was pulled out, rolled to the floor, and the steel They slammed together, making a crisp sound.
The smoking system of the M4 tank is not very useful, so at this time, the inside of the tank has begun to smell of sulfur. The life of the tank soldiers is not as easy and comfortable as the legend, after all, their working environment is not much better than that of the submarine force.
Anyway, this is just a tank from the 2nd World War, and many aspects of the design are really not satisfactory. There is no way, the development of the army's weapons and equipment is not as good as that of the air force. Most of the weapons and equipment are actually at the stage where they can be used.
With the current industrial base of Ailan Hill, it is not difficult to create a tank like the Centurion, but the problem is that the overall performance of this tank is not a leap forward compared to the M4 tank.
None of these tanks can be equipped with a stable automatic loader, nor the ability to fire while traveling. The infrared equipment is also very primitive, and the basic combat indicators have not surpassed the M4 tanks on a large scale.
Therefore, although several M60 tanks have been produced and are being tested in the weapon experimental base of Ireland Hill, the M60 tanks are still not equipped with any troops of the Army due to the problem of time.
The previous Alan Hill executives felt that the M4 tank could support the troops in combat until more powerful tanks entered service. But now it seems that this choice seems a bit too radical.
Fortunately, the crew of the M4 tank can choose whether to suffocate or die from other reasons, so Mr. Salesperson, the commander of the tank, lifted the hatch above his head, revealing the blue Sky.
A cold, sea-smelling air rushed in, making several people in the tank feel refreshed - this is the real battlefield, the real tank battle: sometimes, everyone would rather enjoy a little Die, and don't want to suffer and face danger in a can.
Because there is no way to fire during the march, all M4s are basically similar to fixed turrets. They expose a turret behind the reverse slope, aim at the distant demon troops and open fire calmly, covering the retreating soldiers into the second line of defense.
"The distance of the enemy is very close! Reverse!" He stuck his head out and saw a Cobra helicopter crashing in the distance, the salesman commander retracted into the turret and ordered his members: "Reverse! Back up!"
The thick tracks of the tank were crushed in the sand, and the heavy hull of the tank began to retreat. Because of the occlusion of the reverse slope, the gunner could no longer see those distant targets.
He removed his eyes from his scope, looked at the commander who had just retracted his head, and asked loudly, "Tony! Did you see all the infantry retreating?"
"I didn't see it!" Tony, the salesman and driver, replied loudly, "Why don't you go out and take a look?"
Obviously, the gunner didn't want to go out and have a look. He just saw the demon soldiers of Esa, the fierce god, and now what he wants to do most is to quickly retreat to a safe place.
The M4 tank was slowly reversing, and Tony no longer knew where his position was. He sighed helplessly, and shouted to the loader beside him, "If I knew I would have let you be the captain!"
He leaned out through the opened overhead hatch again, this time he was looking in the direction he was looking back, and after seeing that there was no one behind him and that he would not be run over by the tank, he retracted back into the turret: "Continue to reverse the car. There is no one behind!"
At this time, a shell of a magic-guided cannon penetrated the commanding heights of the reverse slope, leaving a long charred trace on it, and then bombarded not far to the left of the Tony tank.
The huge vibration shocked Tony and others. Fortunately, the M4 tank was still reliable, and it was still reversing backwards during the vibration. On the other side of the huge crater, another M4 tank was also reversing, and there were Alan Hill soldiers running past with weapons.
