Type 1 aerial bomb
Sun Kai said: "Do you think Lin Shuai doesn't want to use a 155mm howitzer? Of course, I want to, but it's too heavy to be able to move on its own, so it can only be towed, and as you can see the current road conditions, it basically can't move when it leaves the road! ”
Zhang Shifeng said: "Battalion commander, then you have to tell Lin Shuai, let Lin Shuai find a way to come out, if there is no way, we can only spend the engineer battalion to fight hard." ”
Sun Kai said: "Okay, I'll try it." Sun Kai then notified Xiao Yingwu, the commander of the Seventh Division, and told the situation, Xiao Yingwu then informed Lin Yuan of the matter, and Lin Yuan couldn't help but be surprised by Xiao Yingwu's description after listening to it, and thought: "Our 122 mm howitzers can't beat the enemy's fortifications, it seems that only 155 mm howitzers can be dispatched." ”
Lin Yuan said to Xiao Yingwu: "You tell the front-line troops that I will find a way to transfer the 155mm howitzer over, let them wait patiently and don't worry." ”
Lin Yuan thought of this and contacted the 155 mm howitzer unit, because the power of this howitzer is too great, so Lin Yuan regarded it as his direct subordinate unit, and organized it into a regiment, the head of the regiment is the famous Yao Feng in the Northeast Battlefield, Yao Feng was the commander of the 122 mm howitzer unit during the Northeast War, the 122 mm howitzer at that time was still a towed artillery, without adding a self-propelled chassis, but it also beat the Russians to the ground.
Yao Feng is now nominally the commander of the 155mm howitzer regiment, but in fact he is the person in charge of the artillery training base, and now almost all the artillery backbones of various units are trained by him, Lin Yuan contacted Yao Feng and said: "Old Yao, please move your 155mm howitzer and beat the little devils." ”
Yao Feng smiled: "Comrade Captain, don't be joking, just say it, where to fight?" ”
Lin Yuan said: "Kaishantun! ”
When Yao Feng heard this, he said categorically: "No, absolutely not!" The road conditions in that place in Kaishantun are already poor, and it has snowed continuously in recent days, and our 155 guns are too heavy, and they will definitely sink into the snow, even if we clear the snow, it will still sink into the mud. ”
Lin Yuan said: "But now there is no condition to build a road, so you can only go in person." ”
Yao Feng said, "Then can you come up with a way for us to keep the equipment from sinking into the dirt?" ”
Lin Yuan said: "You can disassemble the artillery, and then transport it to the front line and assemble it!" ”
Yao Feng smiled disdainfully when he heard this, and said, "Disassemble and reassemble?" You say it easily, do you know how much preload the connecting bolt between the barrel of our 155mm howitzer and the gun mount is? By the way, do you understand what preload is? ”
Lin Yuan said: "Of course I know the way, in layman's terms, it is the pressure of the bolt on the connector, because of the existence of preload, if you want to unscrew the bolt, you have to exert a lot of force on it." ”
Yao Feng said: "Since you understand what the preload is, it is easy to do, I don't need to tell you the specific value of the preload, I will tell you so, the preload is very large, and if you want to unscrew the connecting bolts, you need a special hydraulic press, and it is absolutely impossible to complete it by manpower." ”
"This is only one part of the disassembly, there are more complicated parts, all need special tools, if we want to disassemble the 155mm howitzer and transport it to the front line and reassemble it, we have to bring special tools, so that our entire regiment will almost have to move to the front line, if you were me, would you let our regiment go out?"
Lin Yuan sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, your regiment won't be dispatched, I'll think of another way to solve the little devil's fortifications." ”
Putting down the communicator, Lin Yuan thought: "Dispatching the howitzer regiment may not be a good choice, because the 155mm howitzer also needs someone to correct and guide the shooting, after yesterday's battle, I believe that the Japanese army will definitely be on strict guard against our scouts, so the 155mm howitzer will not have much effect even if it goes." ”
Lin Yuan pondered silently for a while, and thought: "Since the artillery is useless, let's let our fighters be dispatched, the Japanese army has made a single aircraft, which shows that they already have a considerable understanding of the air power, and there is no need to hide the aircraft matter for a long time, plus the conditions for developing our own fighters are very mature, so the original fighters can be used more." ”
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan contacted Xu Feng and told Xu Feng about the situation, and Xu Feng immediately said: "Let's go now!" Blow up the points of fire on the enemy's positions. ”
Lin Yuan thought to himself: "With the dispatch of fighters, it will not be a problem to knock out the firepower points of the Japanese army." ”
When Xu Feng received Lin Yuan's order, he also received information about the enemy, and with it, there were aerial pictures, but Xu Feng was surprised when he saw the aerial pictures, because the Japanese fortifications could not be seen on the aerial pictures at all! You can only see the ground, which shows that the Japanese army's camouflage skills are superb.
Xu Feng immediately summoned Yang Yu and others to discuss the way to fight, Xu Feng first said: "We have all seen the pictures of the Japanese positions, the Japanese fortifications are still relatively well camouflaged, I originally wanted to use TV-guided bombs to attack them, and I can blow up their fortifications by throwing dozens of them, but now it seems that TV-guided bombs have no effect, because we can't see the fortifications at all." ”
"Laser-guided bombs are also not, since we can't see the fortifications, we can't aim with lasers on airplanes, and according to the enemy's situation on the battlefield, our scouts can't use lasers to aim at us, so laser-guided bombs are not very useful."
Yang Yu asked, "What about self-guided weapons?" For example, can infrared-guided missiles track their heat signatures to complete the attack? ”
Xu Feng said: "It should be difficult, because there is too little heat signal below, and our launch height is large, so it is difficult to complete the initial positioning, and self-guided weapons should not be considered." ”
Yang Yu said: "Since this is the case, then we only have one way left, and that is to use a large circle of aerial bombs to blow up!" ”
Xu Feng nodded and said: "It seems that this can only be the case, in this way, tomorrow is the time for the attack that Lin Yuan and I agreed on, we will dispatch some more fighters this time, dispatch four four-plane formations, that is, sixteen fighters, each fighter carries eight bombs with a diameter of 500 kilograms, no, don't carry it like this, directly bring two 3000-1 aerial bombs with a diameter of 3000 kilograms, and one for the two external attachment points in the center of the belly, so you don't need to bring the auxiliary fuel tank." ”
Everyone agreed, Xu Feng immediately told Lin Yuan about this bomb-carrying plan, and Lin Yuan thought to himself after listening to it: "The circular diameter is a mass unit, which is used in aerial bombs, and there are different levels, such as 500 kilograms, 3000 kilograms, etc., and the mass of the bomb is close to which level, it is called a circular diameter bomb." ”
"Our 3,000-kilogram aerial bomb with a circular diameter weighs more than 3,000 kilograms, that is, three tons, and has a loading factor of up to 50 percent! Meaning: 50 percent of the mass of 3,000 kilograms is explosives! In other words: the amount of explosives that can be delivered by one such aerial bomb is 1.5 tons! And our 155-mm howitzer shells contain only thirty kilograms of explosives! Now the little devil is going to suffer. ”
