Being able to get such a large batch of Black Panther 2 is undoubtedly a good thing. It is exciting enough for any commander and fighter of the Red Army's front-line troops, even a "rich" like Malashenko
No exception.
There is no other reason, it’s just because Black Panther 2 is so good that people can’t help but say: This thing is a really fragrant treasure.
Unlike other new German equipment in this timeline that was affected by tampering and changed beyond recognition, although Black Panther 2 has changed a lot, it can be said to be "unrecognizable" compared to previous generations of Black Panther. Not only has the armor been thickened, but it has also been strengthened.
In order to protect the vehicle, the chassis was also lengthened to increase the volume of the power compartment to accommodate a new engine that is larger in size and more powerful, with an output of up to 800 horsepower.
But in essence, Black Panther 2 still does not break out of the "Panther" car group. Although the overall changes are large, they are not out of the circle. It can still be regarded as a model based on the improvement and enhancement of the old design.
At the same time, this also determines that most of the technologies, materials, and accessories used in the Black Panther 2 are all existing mature shelf products, and have been tested in actual combat and have been improved by the Black Panther car owners until now, becoming more and more perfect.
.
Another benefit brought by this is that except for the unstable engine of the initial production model, which often breaks down and breaks down, all other parts of the Black Panther 2 can be said to be stable. After all, except for the thickened armor, the rest of the body is considered stable.
There are no major changes. At most, it is replaced with a brand new radio station for inter-vehicle communication to support longer-distance field calls.
The extra weight brought by the added armor will not overwhelm the Black Panther 2. Although the extra horsepower units from replacing the new engine are not many, carrying these extra tons of armor will keep the Black Panther 2's maneuverability as usual.
Easy, no big problem.
In general, compared to the seemingly awesome but actually useless gadgets created by the Germans who used various new technologies and inventions, regardless of the objective reality, and just tried to get things done, Black Panther 2 is really good.
It is truly a model product that combines new technology with old shelf products to maximize combat effectiveness without sacrificing reliability. It is fully qualified to keep pace with the Grizzly Bear, which Malashenko also praised before.
The only slight regret is that the main gun of Black Panther 2 is still the 75mm long fishing rod, and there is no new gun to replace it.
It would be more troublesome to elaborate on this, as it involves some future issues that were not fully considered in the original design of the Panther, such as the too narrow turret seat, which restricted the Panther's body replacement with a larger seat diameter and the ability to
It can accommodate a new turret with a larger main gun, while the old Panther's small head can accommodate a 75mm fishing rod at its limit.
Further up, for example, if the length is changed to 88, the internal retreat distance of the armor-enhanced version of the F-type turret used in Black Panther 2 is not enough.
If it were to be replaced by a Long 88, when the main gun fired, the breech block would hit the armored bulkhead at the rear of the turret with a "clunking" sound, and the entire gun would be scrapped in an instant, and the shell casings might not even be able to be ejected.
It came out and got stuck at the rear of the turret. If the turret is not replaced with a new turret, the Germans will have to hollow out the back of the Black Panther 2's head and change it into a convertible without armor. This can accommodate a length of 88mm, but it is impossible to do it."
Stupid changes".
However, the fact that the firepower has not been enhanced is actually not a big problem. It is just that the lethality against non-armored targets, fortification bunkers and soft targets is a little weaker, and the amount of high-explosive ammunition under the caliber limit is indeed far from enough.
But if you want to talk about armor-piercing power, a fishing rod with a length of 75mm is better than a nurse... Bah! The short 88cm Tiger type is even more powerful, and there is no problem at all in terms of penetration force compared to the 88cm short one.
Going one step further, if Black Panther 2 is in the hands of the Red Army, the lack of high-explosive bomb damage power will not actually be a problem.
Does the Red Army lack the lethality of your high-explosive bombs against unarmored targets?
Haha, don't take your German soldiers' lack of firepower as the same problem as the Red Army.
Let’s not talk about the various large and thick pipes above 100 mm that can open the mouth, but the pipes below 100 mm, such as su76, su85 and other small cars are also everywhere, which is far richer than the assault gun that you don’t have enough.
Much.
The stronger the armor-piercing capabilities of the Black Panther 2 are, the more it can actually make up for the shortcomings of the Red Army's tank units.
The 85 gun does have enough penetration, but it is far from being in excellent condition. At present, it can only effectively deal with the German No. 4 and the long-discontinued Tiger, which is no longer common.
When encountering Black Panther, Black Panther 2 or King Tiger, there is a dilemma that most of the area of the front projection cannot be effectively penetrated within the normal combat distance. On the contrary, there is a high probability that the opponent will be stunned by one shot.
The T34 series, which is still used by most of the Red Army tank units, has no protection against these zoo monsters.
If there is a Black Panther 2, it can at least defend against the opponent's attack with a high probability, and at the same time, it can directly penetrate any car model below the King Tiger within a regular combat distance.
One thing to say, even for a tank unit at the division level of the Red Army, this is definitely a huge increase in combat effectiveness. Even for a special large-organized unit like the Stalin Guards First Tank Division, this is
It is a rare and valuable combat force that can play a big role in critical moments.
Malashenko kept wandering around these treasures. The more he thought about them, the more he felt that these "beauties" in front of him were so damn delicious. He really wanted to take them as his own and pocket them. He completely forgot about them.
My current wife is parked in an is4 not far from the platform goods yard. She is really a scumbag and has no chance to run away.
If weapons can really transform into women and come back to life, that is if, if.
I'm afraid that the normally majestic comrade of the division commander was knocked to the ground by the is4 that went berserk with a 122-gun breech and fell unconscious. This is no joke.
That is to say, when Comrade Ma was thinking about how to take all these beauties as his own, I want them all, he walked around to the Black Panther 2, the last car in the third row, and just stopped.
But Ke saw a familiar figure squatting on the power compartment at the rear of the car, tinkering with something.
"Iushkin!? What are you doing here? When did you come here???"
"Huh? Ah...here, not long after I came here, probably less than five minutes, I heard that a bunch of German junk was found here, so I came over to take a look. Well, it should have been five minutes.
"
"...."
Malashenko didn't care when Iushkin arrived, but he was curious about the iron rod Iushkin was holding and the power cabin roof that had been opened under his feet.
