Three Hundred and Fifty-Three Forbidden
"I heard that the use of cluster bombs to attack Longshek is prohibited... I don't know why." An artilleryman from Ellen Hill asked a well-informed comrade in the Rocket Force's position.
Just now, the Guardian rocket launched a salvo at the enemy's position, and a lot of dust blown up by the rocket's tail flames filled the surrounding air.
The large rocket launcher has a very important position in the artillery unit of Ireland Hill, on the one hand because its firepower is strong enough and its suppressing power is strong enough. On the other hand, it is because the rocket launchers have wheeled vehicles, which can keep up with the propulsion speed of the armored troops.
The highly regarded rocket artillery unit is also equipped with many dazzling types of rockets: there are large penetrating bombs, ordinary rockets, powerful cloud bombs, and the famous cluster bombs.
However, in the battle against Longshek, the rocket artillery unit was strictly prohibited from using cluster bombs, and I heard that it was still an order from the Supreme Command.
"You have asked the right person about this. Didn't I go to the regiment headquarters before? I heard from the regiment commander that there was a problem with the use of cluster bombs in Ferry City, and all cluster bombs must be checked... ' replied the well-informed soldier.
In fact, this matter is also very speechless, that is, during the battle in Ferry City, the artillery unit of Ailan Hill used a lot of cluster bombs to deal with the demon troops.
Although the effect is good when fighting against demons, cluster bombs have a fatal disadvantage, or can not be said to be a disadvantage, but a characteristic. This feature is that some of the submunitions scattered by the cluster bomb are easily detonated normally.
This probability is between 20 and 30 percent, that is to say, if 100 submunitions are scattered, about 30 bombs cannot be detonated on the spot.
In this way, these bombs will become booby-trapped mines that can explode at any time, and become an unstable security risk.
During the reconstruction of Ferry City, a cluster bomb submunition that did not detonate suddenly exploded, killing three construction workers and injuring four others. This matter attracted the attention of many people, and also delayed the reconstruction of Ferry City.
Therefore, Chris had to issue an order, ordering Vagron to use cluster bombs cautiously, so as to avoid the evil accident of being accidentally injured by his own ammunition after retaking the enemy-occupied area.
As a result, Valglund ordered the troops to reduce the use of cluster bombs, especially on the front of their own attack. According to the attack plan, these places will soon become passages, ensuring that the main force of Alan Hill will attack the southwest, leaving behind The danger is to make trouble for yourself.
Fortunately,
There are other types of ammunition available to Alan Hill's rocket force: at least, the cloud blaster is a high-powered type that isn't banned.
When the two were talking, the loader behind them was busy, and the robotic arm was loading the Guardian rockets into the rocket launch nest.
And further afield, in the traditional artillery position, hundreds of priest self-propelled artillery are constantly pouring ammunition into the enemy's position.
These do not have a turret, the fighting compartment is an open World War II self-propelled artillery, and the performance is actually only average.
However, there are too many m4 tanks produced by Ailan Hill. It is obviously a good way to use the waste to transform them into self-propelled artillery equipment for artillerymen who lack motor vehicles.
Therefore, although the production line of m4 tanks has not been discontinued, the m4 tanks produced by it are no longer equipped for the tank troops of Ailan Hill.
Some m4 tanks were exported to the Eternal Empire and the Norma Empire, as well as the Palak Empire, a servant state of Alan Hill in the south. These tanks are sold to allies as war aid, in order to help these allies stabilize their fronts as much as possible.
There is also a part of the m4 tank produced, only the chassis of the m4 tank. These chassis have been converted into emergency repair vehicles, engineering vehicles, rocket launch vehicles, and most importantly, self-propelled artillery!
Artillerymen, who are already very short of self-propelled artillery, are of course willing to take over such modified weapons, because if they do not accept it, there is no updated weapon that can replace the priest self-propelled artillery.
Therefore, this kind of self-propelled howitzer with average performance, poor protection and small caliber has become more and more in the troops of Ireland Hill.
Thinking about this, it is indeed a funny thing: one day in the future, there may be a very interesting combination in the armored forces of Ireland Hill, the priest self-propelled howitzer of World War II, covering the t-72 tank fight...
Of course, the trendy Air Force is still heavily armed with Il-2s and B-25s and B-17s, so what can the Army have to complain about?
"Sir!" In a temporary dug out bunker next to the firing position of the artillery, an officer was reporting the consumption of ammunition to his supreme commander: "We have fired 17 salvos... Estimate the enemy's position No one will be alive anymore..."
Half an hour ago, their artillery's own observation post had relayed the news that the artillery fire of the puppet empire could not be heard at all.
In fact, the artillerymen of the puppet empire did give up their struggle more than half an hour ago. After being beaten twice, they finally realized a very serious and very real problem: it seems that they really can't beat the huge artillery force of Alan Hill...
"Don't worry, those enemies are similar to mice. No matter how you shell, many people will survive in the end." The artillery commander in the bunker seemed to be more experienced, and smiled and told his subordinates: "Keep firing! "
Not far from this headquarters, a priest self-propelled howitzer suddenly slammed back, and the muzzle spewed out an intertwined fire and smoke.
In the open battle room, a loader waited for the artillery to return to its position, then pulled the breech block, letting a hot shell of the shell roll down to the floor, making a clanging sound.
Then, another loader waited for the bore to cool, pushed the pre-prepared shell into the bore, and closed the breech with a smooth motion.
At the same time, another "priest" next to the priest self-propelled artillery also fired a shell.
This kind of firing seems to be regular, charming, and has its own unique rhythm. Longshek in the distance trembled under the rumbling cannons of Alan Hill, and it was already a thick smoke familiar to the Alan Hill Grenadiers.
