Chapter 1859: Generous

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Americans also have individual anti-tank needs, so they are also researching individual anti-tank weapons. There are also many people's efforts.  A rocket launcher was developed. This rocket launcher is very simple, it is a metal cylinder that is ignited electronically.

    At the same time, Henry, another member of the Ordnance Bureau, developed an m10 individual anti-tank grenade. However, this grenade is too heavy for infantry to throw it far.

    Later, on a whim, they combined these two weapons together.  Thus, the famous bazooka rocket launcher appeared, and its official name is the m1 type 60mm rocket launcher.  It uses armor-piercing rockets with fins, has an effective range of 100 meters, and can penetrate steel plates about 130 mm thick.  Because of its shape similar to a cylindrical bazooka instrument, it got the nickname of bazooka.

    It's just that this weapon officially appeared in the second half of 1942.  It is only the first half of 1942, so even if such a weapon exists, it is being designed in the Army Ordnance Bureau.  Ordinary American military officers were unaware of the existence of such weapons.

    So now Qin Baoshan took out his bazooka and told the other party that he could get the other party's gratitude.  As for a few months later, when the bazooka came out, the day lily would have been cold.  Even that kind of bazooka rocket launcher may not come out. When Qin Baoshan's rocket launcher is trial-produced, the Americans will definitely find it as a treasure and mass-produce it.  Those researchers from the U.S. Ordnance Bureau can continue to remain anonymous.

    With such thoughts in mind, Qin Baoshan spoke out about his own weapon.  He drew the blueprint and introduced it at the same time.  He uses a rocket propulsion scheme, so that there is no need for a thick barrel, as long as there is a round and simple launch tube.  At the same time, it uses the killing principle of the energy-concentrating warhead, so the armor-piercing ability of this bazooka is also good, at least it can have an armor-piercing ability of more than 100 millimeters, which is enough to meet the needs of penetrating the frontal armor of all main battle tanks.

    It's just that the shooting range is slightly poor. A shooting range of one or two hundred meters will actually expose soldiers to danger.  But this is also impossible.  After all, this kind of rocket is not a missile. If the distance is too far, the hit rate will be too low.  Before using the famous rpg rocket launcher, a standard action is to stand it on the ground, and then kowtow to it a few times, expecting it to hit. Hitting depends on faith. Why do you need such a long distance?  No matter how close it is, it is much better than anti-tank grenades that can only be thrown twenty or thirty meters away.

    Qin Baoshan drew this weapon, and then marked some key data on it. The Americans only need to produce it according to these designs.

    Although the actual weapon is not yet visible.  But just by listening to the principle of this weapon, you can know that it is completely feasible. Combining rockets and armor-piercing projectiles is an innovation.  And Qin Baoshan also made it very clear that the Eighth Route Army is already using this weapon.  So there is nothing to worry about, it must be mature.

    Lieutenant Colonel William held Qin Baoshan's design drawing and felt like a treasure.  Their biggest concern is enemy tanks, and with this weapon, they don't have to.  Once they encounter enemy tanks, they can also launch a counterattack.  Thinking of this, Lieutenant Colonel William said excitedly: "You are really our friend. You have selflessly handed over the design of this weapon to us. I am very grateful to you. On behalf of our 502nd Paratrooper Regiment, our 101st Airborne Division, and our entire US Army,  Thank you for your selfless help."

    If this thing is really useful, not just their paratrooper regiment, but the entire airborne division, or even not just the entire airborne division, all armies will be equipped.  After all, ordinary army soldiers are also required by anti-tank.  Qin Baoshan solved a big problem for them.  From this point of view, what is the mere 100 sets of paraglider equipment!

    Even Major Cromlin felt like a cheapskate at this moment.  Qin Baoshan helped them solve such a big problem, do they still care about some small equipment?  Be sure to send all the promised equipment to the Eighth Route Army.

    After Qin Baoshan finished speaking, he felt a little light.  He looked over, looked at the soldiers on the training ground, and suddenly thought of another thing, so he said to Lieutenant Colonel William: "The paratroopers will face a very bad situation when they parachute, and they need powerful automatic weapons.  .¡±

    Now those people are basically holding semi-automatic rifles in their hands.  Although there is no need to pull the bolt, it is still much worse than an automatic rifle.  So Qin Baoshan thought of three Johns.  They tried their best to promote the middle-power bullet, but they couldn't promote it in the army.  I don't know if they have found the airborne troops here, Qin Baoshan feels,There is great hope to bring this weapon over.

    The current American paratroopers use the m1a1 carbine.

    Among them, the standard m1 carbine adopts a fixed wooden full-back structure and a plug-in magazine with a capacity of 15 rounds.  Can shoot.  In this way, the present m1a1 carbine appeared.  This model of carbine is identical to the standard m1 carbine except for the stock.  Even, the initial product was made by directly replacing the standard m1 carbine with a folding stock.

    This kind of carbine is actually not as good as an automatic rifle with intermediate power bullets.  The effective range is only 200 meters, and it is still semi-automatic. Its firepower is not as powerful as that of an automatic rifle, so Qin Baoshan is fully confident that it can be promoted.

    Sure enough, after hearing what Qin Baoshan said, Lieutenant Colonel William said: "Yes, we hope to have a weapon with powerful firepower, so we chose this m1a1 carbine with a foldable stock. By the way, do you have a newer model?  Do you recommend a weapon to us?"

    Qin Baoshan nodded solemnly: "Yes, I know some American friends who are designing new guns. If you are interested, I hope you can bring their guns over for a test."

    For Qin Baoshan, it was a matter of convenience anyway.  Since he came here, he took care of it incidentally, but it must be a big deal for the three Johns.  I have done them such a big favor again, and they will be very grateful.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
