"Ladies and gentlemen, now that the Führer has obtained such detailed information, the enemy's secrets are no longer a secret - this shows that the advantage of time and superiority is still on our side, isn't it?" Adrian asked, smiling. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Of course! Long live the Führer! Germany will win! Guderian said firmly.

Adrian began to introduce in detail the parameters of the T-34 tank, and among these performances, Guderian actually envied the most, there were only two parameters.

One is the strong passing ability of the T-34 tank, which is very important in complex terrain combat conditions.

The other is the incredible depth endurance of the T-34 tank, which is close to 400 kilometers, which is simply a good thing in the dreams of the German armored forces.

You must know that the depth assault capability of the German armored forces is about 200 kilometers, and in fact, the trips of tanks 3 and 4 are less than 300 kilometers.

This meant that Soviet tanks had one-half more marching capability than German tanks.

If the German Panzer Division could be increased from 200 kilometers to 300 kilometers, then Guderian would be able to draw up more and more complex battle plans for the armored forces.

"That's it! The question of the specific parameters of the T-34 is still top secret, the industrial sector is trying to find a way to solve the T-34 crisis, and now we will discuss the second topic. Adrian, who was presiding over the meeting, spoke.

Then, Lieutenant Colonel Kohler helped to paste the three views of another tank, as well as the details and parameters of each tank, on the blackboard.

"The KV-1 tank is a new type of weapon that poses a considerable threat to our armored forces among the active tanks of the Soviet Union, and the specific parameters are as follows......" Adrian pointed to the new tank drawings with his whip and began to introduce them.

The biggest threat to the German army was that the KV-1 tank was equipped with a more formidable armor design in addition to its powerful firepower!

This monster was a supertank in '40 and '41, and it was even more terrifying than the '45 Mouse tank.

In 40 years, Germany was generally armed with 37 mm anti-tank guns, and the firepower on tank No. 3 was desperately weak, and tank No. 4 - it was completely a weapon to support the infantry.

In this case, the KV-1's strong and heavy armor made the German troops helpless, and even at some distances, the strongest ace 88 mm caliber anti-aircraft gun in the hands of the German army could not pose a threat to this monster.

Of course, in the actual use process, this tank was successfully destroyed by the Germans in most cases due to reliability and mobility problems, but the suppression of the armor it brought did make the German troops suffer.

The higher-ups never know the suffering of the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level, or in most cases, they simply turn this suffering into a few simple numbers on the report.

"How can the frontal armor be so thick? How is it possible for such a tank to be driven? Looking at the annotated data, Guderian felt that his head was clearly insufficient.

The thickness of the frontal armor of this new tank, which was already equipped in the Soviet Union, exceeded 90 mm, which is simply a bit sensational.

"If this is true, then this tank is stronger than the T-34, and our existing anti-tank means cannot fight against it." Once again, Guderian was in a state of apprehension.

After all, the anti-tank weapons that the German army is now equipped with have already shown weakness in the battle of France.

Now, in the face of a more formidable enemy, the existing means of attack and defense of the German armored forces and infantry were absolutely obsolete.

In an instant, Guderian, the commander of the armored forces who had really fought on the front line, had already flashed in his mind several ways to deal with this situation.

If such a terrible weapon appeared in front of his armoured corps, he would have to stop the offensive and muster the anti-tank weapons in his hands.

It is estimated that the 37 mm gun will definitely not work, and the only thing that can be used is estimated to be the 88 mm caliber anti-aircraft gun......

After that, if the opponent does not rush over, but deploys defenses in place, perhaps the only way to break through this line is to use Stuka bomber support to clear ground targets.

Although this kind of coordinated operation is the specialty of the German army, it is too much time waste, and it is estimated that the losses of temptation and attack will not be small.

After looking at the tank designs stolen from the Soviets by the two intelligence services, Guderian finally understood why the Führer was in a hurry to get new weapons from the German armored forces.

The pairing of Tanks No. 3 and No. 4, which played a huge role in the Battle of France, is clearly completely obsolete in future battles.

"The tanks and armored vehicles that we are equipped with are outdated." After thinking of this, he said pessimistically.

"Nope! Your Excellency, General, at least, there is one that is not outdated! One of the experts in charge of tank design, taking off his glasses, said to Guderian: "We already have the means to deal with it." ”

"You mean?" Guderian thought of the Stalker tank destroyer, but the current Stalker, although equipped with a lot, only had a 50 mm gun like the modified No. 3 tank.

Although in terms of power, it is much more powerful than a small water pipe with a caliber of 37 mm, but it is powerless in the face of armor that is almost 100 mm thick.

"Yes! We have developed a 75 mm caliber long-barreled anti-tank gun for the Stalker tank destroyer. "This engineer with glasses was the head of the German anti-tank artillery side.

The most recent project he was responsible for was the famous German 75L48, also known as the KWK40/STUK40 anti-tank gun.

This kind of artillery was originally developed in 42 years, but the development reserve began 38 years ago, and after such a urging from the Führer, the German design department desperately perfected the design and took it out for emergency.

Frankly speaking, the performance and cost of this weapon are mediocre to decent, and because of this, it is the backbone of Germany's firepower in World War II!

History is so ironic that the best weapons are often brutally eliminated after leaving a name on the battlefield.

On the contrary, those weapons with mediocre performance eventually survived like a big wave and became the most trustworthy friends of the soldiers.

For example, the King Tiger tank, which almost witnessed the most glorious tank of World War II, and the Tiger tank with the most tank aces, all disappeared in the long river of history with the smoke of World War II.

On the contrary, the weapons that were not well-known were kept and continued to be used for a long time: the No. 4 tank was used by Israel in the Middle East war, and even fought with the T-54.

The Swiss modified the Stalker tank destroyer and used it until 1970, when most of the King Tigers and Tigers in museums were rusty......

The Stalker tank destroyer, equipped with the 75L48 anti-tank gun, is almost a complete version of the tank destroyer.

At this stage, this weapon has become an excellent weapon with the most powerful firepower and the highest thickness of frontal armor in the hands of the German armored forces!

When Guderian heard the news, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, the funniest thing in the history of the German army happened right in front of him.

How funny? That is, the invincible German armored forces that swept across Europe, and when they met their Soviet opponents, they had to call the infantry to anti-tank!

Because according to the establishment, the anti-tank weapons that the German army can use are distributed in almost all arms, and the armored forces are not in this distribution!

The new PAK40 anti-tank gun of towed caliber 75 mm caliber was equipped with ordinary infantry, the powerful Chaser tank destroyer was in the mechanized infantry division, and the 88 mm caliber anti-aircraft cannon was now under the control of the Air Force......

As ridiculous as it sounds, the fact is that the German armored forces are now in an awkward position: they only have 50 guns with long barrels and 75 guns with short barrels!

"How long do you have to wait for a tank to be equipped with a 75 long-barreled gun?" Guderian asked depressedly.

"It is estimated that it will not work in a short period of time, after all, our current production line is not enough." The person in charge of this shrugged his shoulders and said.

After all, this kind of artillery has just been mass-produced, and it was mass-produced after the production line of 37-mm caliber guns was stopped.

In this case, the artillery taken out every month, a small part of which was processed into a towed infantry towed artillery PAK40, was delivered to the infantry.

Most of this type of artillery was delivered to the Stalker tank destroyer line - this is the big consumption.

This month, the German Army needs to equip hundreds of tank destroyers, and such a huge order must be guaranteed as a priority.

As for tank modification, we will have to wait for a new production line. The good news is that the new production line is being expanded, and the bad news is that you won't have to wait this month or next......

"We are already working to increase the production of this artillery to 500 per month, but after all, time is limited." The engineer finally said to Guderian.

Guderian also expressed his helplessness about this, if it were not for the Führer's intelligence services, his armored forces would still be satisfied with 37-mm guns.

Thanks to the foresight of the Führer, if they went to the battlefield in such a daze, the German armored forces would have to face a powerful enemy and surging losses.

"Don't worry! In order to support the modification of the army, the Krupp plant has stated that the production of such guns will be expanded to 1000 units per month as soon as possible! Seeing Guderian so entangled, the other party opened his mouth to comfort him.
