Chapter 920: Death to the One Who Stands in the Way
"Although I don't know what Comrade Vladimir is doing, I can't even say what the Ministry of Defense has to hide, right?"
"The Ministry of Defense has nothing to hide, and it will be known what to do after Comrade Valennikov has watched the next wonderful performance. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Yazov, who was walking in the front, said mysteriously.
This meeting was originally notified by Vladimir, so strictly speaking, it has nothing to do with the Ministry of Defense. In fact, he was also a little expectant of what kind of amazing results Vladimir would come up with, which would be an eye-opener for everyone.
Valentnikov was visibly impatient, and he felt that the Ministry of Defense had been hiding something from him lately. And the matter of the renewal of the main battle tank, which has not been mentioned for a long time, was also brought up again, and followed Defense Minister Yazov through a corridor, and actually found that Deputy Defense Minister Baklanov and Akhromeyev were also there, only to see the latter show a mysterious smile at him, and waved to him, signaling to sit down in the audience.
Not far away rested on the flat ground a tank that had never been seen before, it was different from the previous T80 or T72, although it was a turret without any explosive reactive armor, but the style of the whole tank alone completely deviated from the appearance of the previous Soviet tank, but more like a thing that abandoned the previous combat route and made it in order to cooperate with the new tactics. But the specifics will only be known after the visit.
With the exception of Varennikov, everyone else was very interested in this tank, and as Comrade Vlamir explained, they specially chose a different caliber of shells for this tank.
T72 and T80 were specially chosen for this experiment, and since they insisted that T72 and T80 were excellent, then it would be better to speak in caliber.
"T72 and T80 as targets? When has the Ministry of Defense been so generous? ”
Valentnikov smiled, obviously this magic car after the "T90" could not get into his eyes, after all, he had a great preconception about the new car, and preconceived that it was just a toy.
Baklanov turned his head, and when he looked at Valennikov, his expression was a little strange, "Let's read the evaluation before giving my opinion, Comrade Valennikov." There may be surprises waiting for you. ”
"Comrade Bakranov, believe me. Even if they blow the T90 into the sky, it will not be the only tank weapon that is equipped. The War Office didn't want to spend a lot of money on something that might be obsolete in the next decade or so. I believe that the top of the political bureau is not that kind of fool. ”
It is not clear to anyone whether the so-called top refers to Vladimir or to someone else in particular.
Baklanov smiled and did not reply. Vaguely recall the words of Comrade Vladimir at the previous meeting.
Does the War Department feel that its power is already above that of the Politburo?
At first glance, it sounds like a complaint, but when you think about it carefully in light of the current situation, it feels different.
"Is it ......?"
Baklanov frowned, he turned his head to look at Comrade Vladimir at the front, and the other party's gaze also turned to the side of the seat.
"Do they want to use this tank incident to attack the War Department? Perhaps the Amata plan was originally a question that Comrade Yanayev specially chose to throw out at this time in order to facilitate Vladimir's paving of the way in the army? ”
Interesting, interesting.
Baklanov squinted his eyes and looked at the new tank with amusement. If he guessed correctly, it was not an easy test, but a signal that Vladimir would rebuke the War Office. If...... If he can deter an old credential like Valentikov, no one in the Politburo will be his opponent in the future.
"You really should take a good look at this test, Comrade Valentnikov. Amata is a milestone that says goodbye to the past, and the Soviet army will usher in a new transformation. Including our military. ”
Baklanov said something meaningful, but the other party did not hear the extraneous sound.
"I'll see."
Valentnikov returned the same salute with disdain written on his face. He didn't even realize what this test meant, and still thought that he wanted to replace the original T80 with a new tank, just like before.
He wanted to see what the hell the hell Project Amata was up to.
Armata's new turret was aimed at the T72 tank, which had no protection, to test Armata's penetrating capabilities.
The entire test site became silent, except for the sound of the wind rolling through the grass. Everyone nervously commented on the unusual shape of the tank, and this gun was related to the future of this tank.
With the firing order given, the Amata tank fired the first shot in history. The entire tank was enveloped in dust, followed by a loud explosion followed by a sharp ringing in the ears. Penetrate the nerves of everyone present.
Some people had involuntarily stood up from their seats, and they wanted to see how terrifying the tank's final gun really was.
The result was somewhat surprising, the turret of the T72 tank was lifted directly, and the armor-piercing projectiles penetrating from the side brought the armor-piercing power to the fullest. A large hole tore through the thick armor, splattering fragments and streams of metal into every corner of the car's interior space.
Immediately, the audience heard whispers from ear to ear. There are praises, and there are those who remain skeptical, after all, the performance of the T72 in the Gulf War has been obvious to all, which does not mean that breaking through a T72 is equivalent to passing the test.
"As you can see, breaking down the T72 and T80 doesn't mean he's passed the test in your mind, and the next thing you'll see is really scary about this tank."
"It's like everyone thinks that Amata is just a T90 with a different name, but I want to tell you."
Comrade Vladimir said, "No one can stop the arrival of a new era, and any diehards who want to stop it will end up like that T72." ”
As soon as the words ended, Armata on the test site fired at the T72 continuously, and the launch without warning startled everyone. The explosion attempted to blast it into a pile of scrap metal.
Vladimir stood straight, disdainful to look back at the explosion behind him, the fire and the impact lifting his tie like a devil coming out of the explosion.
Even Valentnikov took a deep breath of cold air.
"Gone in smoke." (To be continued.) )
