Chapter 1084: What About Our Helicopter?

The war that took place on November 11, 45 years, has always been greatly exaggerated in the future history books of this time and space.

Although the battle that took place in Edmonton was not a turning point in the history of World War II, it is worth mentioning in the history of weapons development.

In this battle, many advanced weapons jointly developed by Britain and the United States to counter China were unveiled one after another.

When the Grizzly Bear and Rhino tanks of China stormed the Allied defense line in Edmonton, more than 200 Overlord heavy tanks that had just arrived from the rear formed a steel defense line side by side, blocking in front of them.

After encountering the crisis of the Huaxia tank, the Americans worked hard to improve the performance of the tank.

But even with the improved Super Pershing, the 90mm T15E2 tank gun is not cheap against the Rhino, Grizzly or T-54/55, not to mention the heavy E-100 tank in Huaxia.

The proud Americans were never willing to be overwhelmed by China or the arms suppliers behind it, and from 42 years ago, when King Tiger was still roaring on the battlefield, the Americans' new heavy tank program was implemented.

From the T-26 Pershing to the T-29, T-30 and T-32 based on the Super Pershing, the Americans' heavy tank program is constantly changing. Especially after the Chinese Iron and Steel Corps, with rhinos and grizzly bears in charge and E-100s in the back, began to sweep outward, the Americans had to change their plans again in frustration in the face of the gap between the two sides.

The T-34 heavy tank program was opened, which was neither the T-34 of the Soviet Russians, nor the T-34 of the previous life, but under the joint development of Britain and the United States, mixed with the British conqueror and the American M103 complex, so the Allied Overlord heavy tank was born.

Based on the M45 tank gun with a 120 mm anti-aircraft gun, although this new tank gun is not as sharp as the M58 tank gun of the later M103, the performance of the rifled cannon at 55 times diameter is not inferior to that of the British Challenger's L1A1 tank gun.

The new tank is already superior to the 100 and 90 mm rhinos and grizzly bears, and the Americans are proud to label it the overlord.

The Americans have already planned to use the Overlord as the main force against the Chinese tanks. Even against the E-128 tank, armed with a 100-mm tank gun. There is also a fight, and the United States has another Steel Fortress tank specifically to deal with the E-100.

The 130-ton steel fortress was labelled as the conqueror of the British, and the 38-fold diameter 155mm cannon converted tank gun was a real rival to the E-100 tank.

As soon as they stepped off the production line, 12 Canadian Conqueror super-heavy tanks arrived in a hurry, and as soon as they appeared on the battlefield, they immediately attracted bursts of cheers and morale from the American army. There were even good deeds that immediately spread the title of 12 disciples.

Although two of these 12 disciples were destroyed by the V3 rocket car as soon as they appeared, such a mobile steel fortress did put a lot of pressure on Huaxia.

Because the E-100 was slow, the forward of the Chinese armored forces, which was striving for a quick assault, had not been equipped, and at most at this time, it was deployed near the borders of Alaska and Canada to deter Siye, and suddenly encountered such a solid steel fortress of the Americans. It's really tricky.

If it weren't for the fact that the rocket artillery unit paralyzed two at once, which made the Americans taboo, the conqueror, whose performance was almost similar to that of the E-100, might have been able to directly overwhelm the offensive of the armored forces in China.

At this time, even though the conquerors no longer blindly rushed forward, the 200 Overlord I tanks turned from defense to attack and pressed against the tank corps in Huaxia. Groups of Pershing and Super Pershing followed in the rear, originally they were not as soft as Sherman, and their performance in all aspects was only inferior to that of the rhinoceros and grizzly bears, and the threat to the Chinese tanks was still great.

But. On the opposite side, a rain of rockets once again set off in a row. Blocked their counterattack. Thanks to the supply along the way of the sub-base, the rocket troops of Huaxia have been following the assault of the tank group. There weren't many opportunities along the way that required them to launch a blizzard, and the Americans' dense attack formation made them suffer enough in the ensuing blizzard.

When the Chinese helicopter gunship appeared in the sky, the American tanks quickly retreated.

It's not the first time the Americans have encountered helicopters, but Black Hawk helicopters are more about transport and raids, and the multi-barreled machine guns are sharp against infantry, but slightly worse against tanks. At the beginning, Meng Xiang directly installed ground attack rockets and 30mm ground cannon on the Black Hawk helicopter, and made many feats in North Africa and other battlefields, but all this was no longer needed with the appearance of the Red Alert's Hind helicopter gunship.

The Hind Gunship has demonstrated its striking prowess in just one stage, and while it can't be as exaggerated as in the game, the 75mm barrel it carries on its back can also make any armored unit on the ground fearful.

Meng Xiang wondered if its recoil would shake him apart.

Large-caliber aircraft guns have appeared a lot in World War II, but the caliber of aircraft guns equipped with fighter jets is generally 30 mm, and the recoil has a great impact, but it cannot stop people's eagerness to install cannons.

The most typical of more than 30 mm guns is the 37 mm guns, and the M4 and P-63 M10 guns of Bell are deeply loved by Lao Maozi.

Lao Maozi also used a lot of 37mm guns, and even hung a 45mm gun on the Yak 9.

Even the British have modified 40mm guns on Hurricane fighters.

The Germans also had a lot of 37 guns, but the pinnacle was the Me262, whose A-1a/u4 was equipped with a 50mm BK5 cannon on the nose, which could kill all man-made aircraft at that time.

Larger caliber aircraft guns also require at least a strong attack aircraft.

However, there are very few attack aircraft such as the HS-129 that carry 75mm guns, and most of the larger caliber guns are used in bombers. For example, the 57-mm gun of the Mosquito, the 75-mm gun of the B-25. They rely on a stronger body that counteracts the impact of recoil.

And the thin body of the helicopter, carrying a 75mm gun, is enough to make Meng Xiang worried.

When Alaska's many actual battles completely dispelled his worries, the Red Alert once again showed its perversion. When the first Hind helicopter that had been upgraded in actual combat was finally towed out of the tank factory, the 105mm muzzle on it completely left Meng Xiang speechless.

Later generations except for the AC-130 mounted on the 105-mm howitzer, and the Germans remained in

In another time and space, the development of missiles to replace large-caliber aircraft guns, I don't know what caused Soviet Russia to develop such a freak of helicopter cannons.

"A lot of times, missiles are not safe!" Xiaohua only said this, and then stopped mentioning it.

Even in the era of intelligent brains like Xiaohua, missiles are not safe, and Meng Xiang can only be attributed to the super-space-time characteristics of the base. Under the influence of electromagnetic weapons similar to Yuri's control, I am afraid that intelligent missiles are really not safe, such as alert cannons and French cannons and even helicopters are not uncommon.

However, in this time and space, missiles are still a big killer, but they are limited to the problem of cost and weapon replacement, and they will not be used in large quantities to deal with tank armor on the ground. Even against tanks on the ground, the 105-mm gun of the second-class Hind helicopter was overkill, and the appearance of the 75-mm gun was enough to make the first-class Hind helicopter a fear in the hearts of the Americans.

From Alaska to the present, China has firmly controlled air supremacy along the way. While making the Chinese tank corps rampant, it also made the helicopter temporarily less threatening from overhead.

And even if the tank armor is running with joy, it is not cost-effective to attack those vast and sparsely populated North American regions. In order to carry out the attack more effectively, the helicopter corps units in Huaxia were used on a large scale for the first time.

These days, the Americans have already tasted the power of helicopters to fight tanks, whether it is a Black Hawk or a hind, if there are not enough anti-aircraft weapons, the best way for the ground troops to deal with them is to flee or hide, and even when the helicopter far exceeds the speed of the tank and the flexibility that can hover in the air, even fleeing and hiding is sometimes a luxury.

Previously, the Allies had also deployed a number of armored units near the Athabasca River, trying to rely on this trench to block the Chinese iron cavalry. But the advent of large-scale helicopters has made everything come to naught.

No matter how wide the river is, it can't stop the helicopter, and no matter how thick the front armor is, the tank can't resist the helicopter's weak point in the air.

After the painful lesson of losing more than 200 Pershings this time, the American tank armored forces have firmly remembered this tank nemesis of the Chinese market.

Therefore, as soon as the Huaxia helicopter group appeared, the Americans' tank units were so frightened that they temporarily gave up the counterattack, shrank their formation, and relied on all their anti-aircraft weapons to prepare for the attack of the Huaxia helicopter group.

……

"Bastard, just give up the best chance to fight back!" General Jonathan said hatefully.

His 36th Army did not catch up with the chariots of the European war, but because China set foot on the American continent, it began to assist in the north.

Just starting from Alaska, they suffered defeat all the way, and finally with the help of advanced American tanks, they had the hope of counterattacking and winning, but they were blocked by the helicopter air offensive of the Chinese.

"Don't we have a helicopter too? And our new fighters, where did they all go? Looking at the sky, Jonathan couldn't help but say depressedly. (To be continued.) )
