In terms of power alone, 40mm grenades may not be as powerful as ordinary grenades or long-handled grenades. However, the advantage of 40mm grenades is that they can be projected remotely and can carry out fire strikes and fire suppression in the blank areas between grenades and mortars.
The fire suppression capability of the automatic grenade launcher can be said to be very powerful. It is especially effective against enemies hidden in trenches, fortifications, house bunkers, and lightly armored vehicles.
Our army even found a new way to innovate on the grenade launcher, a weapon that has been around for decades, and successfully developed a sniper grenade launcher, which is also affectionately called a "sniper gun" by military fans.
This 'sniper gun' maintains the powerful power of the original grenade while also incorporating high accuracy.
It is said that this kind of sniper gun can accurately hit the grenades close to the machine gun eyes of the enemy's bunker fortifications from hundreds of meters away, making it a bunker killer.
Moreover, the development of the combat effectiveness of this sniper gun has not stopped. It is said that this weapon is effective in precision sniper operations and counter-sniper operations.
It combines the two advantages of accuracy and power. It can be used as a sniper rifle, and can also be used as a squad fire strike and suppression weapon to replace the 40-fire and 60-force weapons commonly used by squad-level units.
Therefore, this weapon has been widely equipped in the front-line troops of our army, and has successfully gone abroad and appeared in the troops of other countries.
Of course, fire support equipment such as automatic grenade launchers is not without its shortcomings. First of all, it is relatively heavy and takes up a lot of personnel.
Under normal circumstances, it needs to be independently organized into a squad for use, or it can be installed on a mobile combat vehicle and used as a vehicle-mounted weapon.
Secondly, the ammunition is large in size and heavy in weight, making it difficult for individual soldiers to carry large quantities of ammunition, and the sustainability of the firepower is limited.
On the heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor, these are not problems. The powerful carrying capacity allows it to be equipped with hundreds of grenades. This kind of continuous fire suppression capability will give it an overwhelming advantage in hand-to-hand combat.
Hundreds of rounds of grenades have been fired, and the live-fire test of the No. 2 heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor has been completed.
As for the simulated targets erected on the simulated position three hundred meters away, they had become fragments scattered on the ground. Each fragment was covered with bullet holes and some shrapnel.
However, compared to the shocking scene just now when the No. 1 heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton assisted armor was tested, everyone behaved much calmer this time.
However, calmness does not mean calmness. On the contrary, many people suddenly have a sense of crisis in their hearts.
If in future battles, the enemy is a soldier wrapped in steel with such powerful firepower, then how should we resist it?
Under the firepower here, if traditional infantry were to deal with it, they would probably be slaughtered.
Fortunately, this is our own. With such a force that is all wrapped in steel, there is no need to fear so many threats and provocations.
Of course, this does not mean that this heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor is invincible. There are many weapons and equipment to destroy it. For example, rocket launchers, anti-tank missiles, ground attack ammunition, and attached weapons on armored combat vehicles, such as tanks
Main guns, armored combat vehicle guns, 30mm machine guns, even heavy machine guns, etc.
But its super defensive capabilities are equivalent to providing a super defensive armor for soldiers exposed on the field. This set of heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor can not only provide full-body protection for soldiers, but also resist ordinary light weapons and shrapnel attacks.
It also has an exoskeleton assist system that allows soldiers to have mobility far beyond that of humans. Not only can they run faster and further, but they can also jump higher and carry more weight.
In the past, the supplies carried by a soldier could support him in a medium-level battle and several days of marching. Now with this heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor, soldiers can cope with a medium-level or even severe-level battle.
fighting.
To put it bluntly, it is people who determine the outcome of a war. When the combat effectiveness of one party reaches its extreme, the balance of the war will tilt to this party.
If it can cooperate with armored vehicles and other services and arms to conduct combined operations, its combat effectiveness will be improved, and the overall combat effectiveness of the troops can even be improved by several levels.
While everyone was discussing, the live-fire test of the No. 3 heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor had begun.
Different from the previous two, the live-fire test of the No. 3 heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor is mainly divided into three parts. First, the first part is rocket launcher shooting. The 120 heavy-duty rocket launcher has always been the most equipped firepower of our army's squads and platoons because of its strong firepower.
Strike weapons.
However, what was tested on site was a 120mm disposable heavy-duty rocket launcher. The rockets were loaded inside the rocket launcher and were not exposed.
The aiming mechanism on the rocket launcher has been removed, and the launching mechanism has been modified to facilitate the use of the manipulator of the heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor.
So it seems that this is just a bare military green rocket launcher, which looks very simple. Of course, the cost is also reduced a lot.
In front of the No. 3 heavy mechanical exoskeleton assist armor, there are three modified 120mm disposable heavy rocket launchers.
The No. 3 heavy mechanical exoskeleton assist armor holds the rocket launcher and raises it to its right shoulder, ready for all launches.
"The target is a simulation of three enemy reinforced concrete permanent bunkers 400 meters away. The requirements are to use a 120mm heavy-duty rocket launcher to destroy them to clear the way for our army to launch an assault."
"clear!"
I saw the No. 3 heavy-duty mechanical exoskeleton-assisted armor lifting a 120mm disposable heavy-duty rocket launcher, and after a brief aiming, it was launched!
Uh-huh...
A rocket sprayed flames and flew towards the simulated enemy reinforced concrete permanent bunker 400 meters away.
The distance of four hundred meters is considered the limit of this rocket launcher. If it is operated by a single soldier, even with an optical sight, it is basically impossible to hit.
And in general training, such a distance is rarely fought. In general training and combat, it is basically about one or two hundred meters.
boom!
I saw that the rocket fired hit the first bunker with great accuracy. In an instant, a huge explosion was mixed with gravel, dust and white smoke, swallowing up the bunker completely.
"good!"
A burst of warm applause broke out again, especially from the military officers and soldiers, as well as the elderly people sitting in the comprehensive command hall watching the live broadcast.
As the saying goes, laymen only watch the fun and insiders watch the door. For them, no one understands the difficulty of this test better than them.
Being able to hit from a distance of 400 meters shows its excellent fire control performance.
