ps: Look at the exclusive story behind "Huaxia Sea Power", listen to more suggestions for the novel, pay attention to the official account (add friends on WeChat - add the official account - enter qdread), and tell me quietly! Although the Soviets managed to catch up with the amount of firepower on the Eastern Front after some efforts. But it is undeniable that because the mortar range is closer, and the Soviet Union's caliber in howitzers is smaller, so the effective range of fire projection will also be smaller, so these artillery must be pushed to the front as much as possible if they want to play a role, and close to the front line means a huge threat, so the Soviet Union's artillery losses will be relatively large, of course, these are talking about those medium-caliber artillery and cheap mortars. Therefore, in order to make the artillery above the hand play as effective as possible and to gain local superiority as much as possible, the Soviet Union adopted the method of concentrating a large amount of support firepower to a higher strength, and this situation was also adapted to the actual situation of the Soviet Union.

≮ On this plane, Russia lacks large-caliber cannons and howitzers more than in history, and even makes a long-range cannon with excellent performance is a little inadequate, the original technical system was destroyed in one aspect, and the inability to produce in large quantities is another, and the result of these two reasons together is that the Russians are almost blank in terms of 8-inch howitzers and cannons above 6 inches. Not only is the artillery of the army group level strictly restricted, but even the long-barreled cannon of the level is also strictly restricted, not that the technology is not good, but it is difficult to equip this kind of artillery on a large scale at the current economic level of Russia. These things are relatively expensive, and Huaxia cannot provide them in large quantities at this stage.

As in history, the Russians still relied on mortars to compensate for the lack of firepower. A large number of mortars, these weapons are simple in structure and inexpensive to build. Excellent firepower projection. But soon, the Russians discovered a serious problem, and in the development of plans they could not find enough direct fire. Historically, however, the Russians have almost always used mortars to support the infantry. However, it does not mean that the troops lack direct firepower when attacking, such as the howitzers and even howitzers equipped on various ISU and SU vehicles. These things all belong to the kind of things that are much better at fighting bunkers than tanks. And in terms of the types of shells, the number of grenades in Soviet tanks in 2 battles was also somewhat more than that of armor-piercing shells. But this problem doesn't exist in this plane anymore. The Russians lack enough howitzers, even less than in history!

Facing this dilemma. The Russians responded simply, without saying a word, and asked Huaxia if there were a large number of infantry artillery that had taken a back seat. The projectile projection quality is similar to that of a howitzer, but the only advantage of a weapon with a terrible low muzzle velocity and a very short range over a mortar is that it can fire horizontally. And if you load armor-piercing shells, you can theoretically fight opponents' armored units at close range. So the Russians decided to pack and clear almost all of China's stocks of infantry guns. Then they installed various chassis infantry guns on these guns and put them on trucks, and the infantry guns of the class were placed on combat vehicles that Huaxia had converted from the chassis of the Type 26 tank. These things provided Russian units with relatively reliable front-line anti-bunker firepower in later wars. Later the Russians also began mass production of these infantry guns.

And in terms of armored forces, Russia is also very different from history. Relative to the huge number of Russian armored forces in history. (Okay.) The quantity has gone up, but the quality cannot be guaranteed, whether it is the quality of the product or the proportion of the composition of various combat vehicles. T34-76 is not better than the German long-barreled No. 4, and the actual performance of T34-85 and IS1 and 2 is not as good as that of the Leopard) The Russians have lost the ability to equip tanks on a large scale, and for the same technical and industrial reasons, the Russians' tanks can only be obtained by relying on China at this stage. It is different from the historical tactic of drowning the opponent with a large number of medium tanks. The Russians on this plane cherish every tank they have, whether light or medium? As for heavy tanks? Sorry, so far Huaxia has no plans to supply Russia with the Type 29 tank, although this tank is ready to be classified as a medium tank in the Huaxia arsenal. At this stage, China does not have the idea of letting the Russians take charge alone. …

And in terms of aviation equipment and tactics, the Russians have likewise rejected the historical idea of the need for the army. This comes down to the scarcity of combat aircraft for the Air Force. Historically, almost all the tactical activities of the Russian Air Force have revolved around ground battles. Fighter units must ensure the safety of attack planes, and must not enter or leave the theater at will, nor can they arbitrarily pursue enemy planes that are far away. And ground attack aircraft units must cover ground operations at all costs. Even attack planes as strong as the Il-2 were beaten quite badly by the air force and ground anti-aircraft artillery units that the Germans were waiting for under the guidance of this almost rigid tactical thinking. The Il-2 is not just the most produced attack aircraft in the world. At the same time, it is also the ...... that dies the most.

What's more, Huaxia has more restrictions on the equipment provided to the Russians in terms of air force, on the one hand, Huaxia does not want to hand over the best aviation equipment to the Russians, and on the other hand, it is difficult for the Russians to maintain these high-tech equipment. The jet fuel used in Huaxia's aircraft is generally marked with 100/130 grades. The aviation fuel of the Russians is generally 93 grade, which is almost the same as the history in terms of quality, but it cannot meet the requirements of Huaxia aircraft. It's not that it can't be used, but it means that it will have an impact on the performance and life of the aircraft after use. Inferior fuel can damage the engine, and you have the Russians of this plane overhaul an engine similar to the R2600 class. It's really hard for them.

If nothing else, the Soviet Union in history was much stronger than Russia in this plane. But the aero engine is still inferior to Germany. Needless to say, liquid cooling, the Germans are not even afraid of the US imperialism on mass production machines. Air cooling. Although theoretically, the Russian ASH-82FN engine and the German BM801 are of the same level, but the former is not as stable as the latter. (The BM801 also had overheating problems in the early stages, and the latter is said to still have overheating problems in the later stages.......) If the German aircraft were worse at high altitude, then the Soviet aircraft at high altitude could only be described as very bad. (The MiG-3 was indeed at high altitude when it appeared, and that was because he was a specialized high-altitude aircraft.) Low and medium altitudes are bad, and the author believes that to see whether an aircraft pressurization system is excellent, it should look at their suitable airspace breadth. High-altitude NB alone doesn't mean anything. It's also not practical. ）

And on this plane. The land-based fighters of the Chinese are mainly based on the Morin and Griffin engines of the British, and it is indeed difficult for them to hand over such a tall thing to the Russians for maintenance. As for the future air-cooled engine workhorse. Not to mention the R2600 and R2800 engines. The latter is a bug-level existence. In addition to technical problems, the training and reserve of pilots of the Russians is even more of a problem. Historically. The Soviet Union's ability to gain air supremacy on the Eastern Front in the later period was not due to aircraft production, let alone the quality of pilots, but because Britain and the United States finally consumed the elite of the Luftwaffe on the Western Front.

So the Russians don't think about letting the air force sweep the ground for the army, the Russians don't have so many planes and not so many pilots to send the opponent's anti-aircraft artillery. The scarcity of equipment forced the Russians to take the elite route as well. Therefore, the selected Russian pilots will enter the air force academies in China to study, and the content of the study will be mainly air combat, and the Russians' demand is very simple, to ensure their own air supremacy as much as possible. The tasks of the Air Force are only air combat and cover. Let's put the ground attack thing on the ground for now. At the same time, the Russians will also receive a small number of twin-engine aircraft. The vast majority of these aircraft will be night combat aircraft, taking into account ground attacks, and as a large country, it is simply unthinkable that there will be no night air defense.

Therefore, the current engine used by the Russian Air Force will be a relatively low-end R1830 level, the performance of this engine is very poor, and the F4F equipped with this engine is definitely not as good as the BF109 using DB601, not to mention compared with the later F190, but this simple single exhaust air-cooled engine is the most suitable for the current Russian production and technical level. Therefore, Huaxia provided Russia with technical information on this simple engine, so that Russia could form an air force on its own. Of course, in addition to these low-end aircraft, Huaxia can provide some high-end aircraft for the Russian Air Force stationed in Huaxia. After all, the former is for Russia's technological reserves and to ensure the basic number of aircraft of the Russian Air Force, while the latter is to prepare for the Iranian war. …

China did not interfere much in light weapons and infantry equipment, on the one hand, because the Russians had not yet degenerated to a level where they could not even make light weapons. On the other hand, the Russians are not very concerned about light weapons. In their opinion, since everyone uses bolt-action rifles the same. Isn't there really much difference between Mauser and Mosinagan? In terms of submachine guns, the Russians also considered their PPS to be stronger than the German MP, after all, the ammunition was more loaded. The structure is simple and not easy to break.

As for the machine gun? Both historically and now, the DP machine guns of the Russians are inferior to the MG series of the Germans. The Russians could have obtained such a machine gun through the Chinese, but taking into account the rate of fire of the MG machine gun of up to 1200 rounds per minute. As well as the resulting problem of ammunition pressure, the Russians finally decided to continue using DP machine guns. And unlike the Germans, who had a machine gun in one squad, the Russians were not so generous, and this machine gun was positioned as a company-level machine gun. It is impossible to have an ordinary infantry squad.

The Russians never gave up their efforts to rebuild a whole military system. After receiving secret assistance from Huaxia, the relevant work began, starting with the most basic mortars. Then there are infantry guns, anti-tank guns, automobile and tank engines, armor steel, optical instruments all the way up to the more high-end electronics and aircraft engines. Although what they have obtained is already somewhat behind the times. But for Russia now, these things alone are enough for them to digest for a while.
