Great Power Ship

Chapter 267 DPZ-030 Cannon

As he said that, the head of the Marine Corps waved his hand, and the officers and soldiers of the Marine Corps on the side immediately took out the prepared tungsten alloy long-rod bullet core.

A group of army leaders immediately surrounded them. The jet-black bullet core was not aesthetically pleasing, but each of these army leaders took this 30mm diameter, 420mm long tungsten alloy long pole bullet core as if they had seen a treasure. Pass each other and watch very carefully.

The last army chief with square glasses nodded: "It is indeed a tungsten alloy long-rod bullet core, and the amount of propellant inside is definitely not small. The current 85mm tank guns are old guns more than ten years ago. The product is really difficult to bear!"

As soon as this remark came out, many army chiefs nodded in unison.

There is no doubt about the power of armor-piercing projectiles equipped with tungsten alloy long rod bullet cores, but to achieve this power, they must have extremely high energy to push.

As the saying goes, speed is the only thing that can't be broken in the world of martial arts. Armor-piercing bullets can be said to be a good interpretation of this sentence. However, behind this indestructible effect is the high strength and high durability of the tank gun barrel.

Otherwise, the armor-piercing projectile has not gone out, and the barrel of the tank gun may explode in advance.

But who is a mediocre person who can come here to watch the firepower display?

Since the head of the Marine Corps can come up with this first phase of the SJ-857 series of experimental bombs, it is impossible not to have a backup, otherwise what is the use of using a useless shell?
So the next moment, the leader of the army wearing square glasses asked the head of the Marine Corps: "Don't you have a solution?"

The head of the Marine Corps spent a long time waiting for this sentence, so he responded with a smile: "Of course there is, we are jointly developing a new 85mm tank gun with Zhujiang Shipbuilding Factory, but after repeated arguments, we feel that The caliber of the 85mm tank gun is too small and not powerful enough to meet the needs of future wars, so I would like to take this opportunity to communicate with the leaders of the brother troops, which direction should our Type 63 tank gun go?"

The chief of the Marine Corps said this very euphemistically. All the chiefs of the troops present understood, but no one disagreed. No one has rich pockets these days. At this time, your chief of the Marine Corps asked us where we should go. Let's go, we don't know how to go.

Besides, as soon as your upper lip touched the lower lip, the chief of the Marine Corps said that there was a research and development plan. What about the plan?What about the finished product?
The head of the Marine Corps also knew that his empty teeth would not be able to pry the heads of the troops who are better than monkeys, so he didn't argue, but continued with a smile: "In this way, what caliber does the Type 63 amphibious tank use? Tank guns, we are slowly discussing after our firepower show is over..."

After speaking, the head of the Marine Corps turned his head and asked the staff next to him: "What is the next demonstration?"

"Reporting to the chief, it's my armored battalion's 63-type modified armored infantry fighting vehicle showing the anti-armor firepower of the 30mm machine gun!" The staff quickly replied.

As soon as this remark came out, many army heads were obviously interested. You must know that the infantry combat vehicle is still a novelty in China these days. Apart from the main tanks, the army armored forces are only accompanied by Type 63 armored vehicles.

There is no such scene as the Soviet Union's tanks with BMP series infantry fighting vehicles.

Because of this, the accompanying firepower of the infantry is very weak, usually only a 63mm high-level dual-purpose machine gun carried by the Type 12.7 armored vehicle.

Fairly good against light infantry.

If you encounter the enemy's armored forces or strong offensive, it's not enough, you can only rely on infantry to open the passage with flesh and blood.

Because of this, the army units of the various military districts hope to be able to incorporate the sequence of infantry fighting vehicles among the armored mechanized units.

The superiors naturally noticed this demand, so they are also actively mobilizing resources to develop their own infantry fighting vehicles using the Soviet-made BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles obtained from special channels as a blueprint.

In other words, great progress has been made, and it is expected to be finalized in the middle of next year.

It's just that the finalization is finalized, and it still needs a process from production to equipment. Coupled with the initial production capacity problem, it is estimated that it will have to wait until the mid-90s if you want to roll out the whole army.

What to do with such a long blank period?
Do other troops just watch?

Because of this, many heads of troops still have great expectations for the Type 63 modified armored infantry fighting vehicle that the Marine Corps is going to display publicly.

After all, before the firepower display, the content of the display subjects and equipment reported by the Marine Corps had already been clarified, so that it became a highlight before the firepower display, and was discussed by many military leaders for a long time.

Although the equipped artillery is only 30mm, which is much smaller than the 1mm gun on the BMP-73 infantry tank, it is still more powerful than the 12.7mm dual-purpose machine gun.

If the power is acceptable and the cost is appropriate, it can be regarded as a transitional model before the domestic version of the BMP-1 step tank is equipped.

After all, its basic model is the Type 63 armored vehicle commonly equipped by various troops, and it is equipped with a turret of a DPZ-030 30mm machine gun.

The number of people on board has changed from 63 in Type 13 armored vehicles to 10, of which 3 are operators of vehicles and machine guns, and 7 are fully armed soldiers.

On the whole, it meets all the expectations of a transitional vehicle, so many troop leaders are eager to see how powerful this infantry fighting vehicle improved based on old equipment is.

Now listening to what the Marine Corps said, they actually want to use infantry combat vehicles to fight tanks, and their interest is even higher, so they are not in a hurry to argue about what caliber tank guns the Type 63 amphibious tank needs. What is the capability of the Marine Corps' Type 63 modified armored infantry fighting vehicle.

Soon, a combat vehicle that looked very similar to the Type 63 armored vehicle drove into the training ground. The difference was that the position of the original 12.7mm high-level dual-purpose machine gun was replaced by a sharp-edged 30mm machine gun turret with a sci-fi shape. replace.

I saw that the car drove into the field quickly, and then made a half-circle in front of the scrapped Type 59 tank that served as the target, and then stopped at a position about 500 meters behind it. Burst.

The Type 59 tank was hit with sparks, and this is not over. After this long point shot, the Type 63 modified armored infantry fighting vehicle quickly started, circled to the rear of the Type 59 tank, and aimed at the position of the engine. Boom, boom, boom... a long burst came.

In this way, the Type 63 modified armored infantry fighting vehicle went left and right around the Type 59 tank, stopping and walking, erratic, but every long burst would hit the tank accurately.

For a while, the Type 59 tank was full of sparks and debris flying around, making it very lively.

But all the troop leaders in the stands didn't care to watch this gorgeous scene like fireworks, but opened their mouths nervously.

The reason for this is very simple, that is, the Type 59 tank at this time has almost become a sieve. What does this mean?
The power of the DPZ-030 30mm machine gun is beyond imagination!
