On February 21st, the Yangmu Empire and the Bingbing Empire formally signed a peace treaty. The war between the two countries stopped for more than a year and the border was restored to its original state.
The two countries that have achieved mutual understanding can finally take a breath and begin to restore their economies that are on the verge of collapse.
Militarily, the two countries were also left behind due to the war. In addition to the two countries, countries around the world are starting to build aircraft carriers and purchasing a large number of aircraft that can be used on aircraft carriers.
Piston engine technology is no longer a technology worth keeping secret, so the Tang Empire can sell it at will, and the Cyric Consortium also has many "self-developed" new technologies.
Everyone knows who is making money behind Cyric, but there are still many people who are dissatisfied with the Tang Empire and choose to use the technology of Cyric Consortium.
After all, Cyric is still cheaper. Although sometimes it is not that easy to use, sometimes cheapness is the most important criterion.
Even though the Zero fighter has proven to be ineffective, some countries are still willing to use it: after all, it is cheap enough and has a long enough range.
In addition to the navy and air force, the development of the army is also ongoing. Countries around the world are studying their own light machine guns and beginning to equip more semi-automatic rifles to increase the firepower of individual soldiers.
Although most troops in various countries still use single-shot bolt-action rifles, the proportion of automatic weapons in these countries has been increasing.
In addition, better helmets and better grenades have become the basic equipment for infantry in various countries around the world. Because the rifle grenades of the Tang Empire shined in the war against the Mirage, various countries began to generally equip rifle grenades.
It's just that their rifle grenade is a World War II technology. It is a "grenade" that is fired with bullets and installed on the muzzle of the rifle.
It takes time to popularize so many weapons and equipment, including submarines, aircraft carriers, new aircraft, and individual equipment, so the overall situation in the world has stabilized.
The Tang Empire is also intensifying its efforts. While equipping a large number of new tanks, the Tang Empire is also building its own army using the same ideas as developing its navy.
Tang Mo's navy first used experience to shape the battleship into a future style, and then used existing weapons and equipment to fill the new sci-fi-looking battleship until it was full.
The same goes for the Army. The Tang Empire began to produce two types of infantry fighting vehicles, both using the standard design shapes of future infantry fighting vehicles: one tracked and one wheeled.
The tracked model is based on the Rabbit 04A infantry fighting vehicle, but the fire control system is not that advanced at all.
It is equipped with a 30 mm caliber cannon, and next to it is a 100 mm caliber low pressure artillery. This is completely plagiarized, and due to technical reasons, the ballistic trajectory of the 100 mm low pressure artillery is actually not very good.
good.
This set of ideas actually comes entirely from the self-propelled artillery tactics of the former Soviet Union in World War II. It was probably the earliest experience learned from San Dezi's San Baldy.
Throughout World War II, Mao Xiong manufactured many self-propelled artillery without turret structures, including the famous SU-76 and SU-122 as well as the famous SU-152.
During the war, Mao Xiong used this type of self-propelled artillery to accompany infantry in combat, destroying enemy solid positions, covering assault missions, and achieved fruitful results.
Therefore, in terms of post-war infantry fighting vehicle design, Mao Xiong emphasized offensive firepower and delegated the "assault gun" task in World War II to infantry fighting vehicles carrying infantry.
There was no way, because the way the Mao Xiong carried infantry in World War II was to let the infantry lie on the self-propelled artillery and tanks. After the war, the infantry was stuffed into the vehicle body, and the artillery naturally could not be lost.
Tang Mo admired Rabbit's weapons and equipment, so when he had the ability to copy Rabbit, he resolutely chose to copy Rabbit's weapon design.
Regardless of whether it is reasonable or not, it is a very good choice to plug a 100mm low-pressure gun into an infantry fighting vehicle, coupled with a coaxial 30mm caliber cannon.
In fact, the Tang Army does not seem to lack the firepower of infantry to attack fortresses, and the armored vehicles of the Tang Empire do not undertake anti-tank tasks during the attack. Their firepower only needs to suppress the bunkers on the opponent's position.
However, Tang Mo still did not abandon the low-pressure gun on the tank, nor did he follow the old path of European and American infantry fighting vehicles.
In fact, the Type 113 armored vehicles heavily equipped by the Tang Army were called "taxi" by the soldiers of the Tang Empire because they overly underestimated firepower.
Therefore, Tang Mo regained the low-pressure artillery and machine guns on the new tracked infantry fighting vehicle, allowing the infantry to have their own means of solving problems.
Another type of infantry fighting vehicle is a brand-new vehicle family that replaces the Lion armored reconnaissance vehicle: a new generation of big eight wheels! In fact, this is the big eight wheels of the rabbit. The square body is more beautiful than the Santoku eight wheels of the World War II era.
At the same time, the interior space is also larger.
One advantage of this thing is that it can be modified in various ways. In addition to being used as a personnel carrier and a wheeled infantry fighting vehicle, it can also be modified into a command vehicle, a reconnaissance vehicle, and a tank destroyer.
It can be equipped with a 105 mm caliber anti-tank gun, replacing the Lion armored reconnaissance vehicle previously equipped by the Tang Empire, and realizing the upgrading of army weapons and equipment.
Similarly, the Tang Empire also began to produce a new tracked chassis for mass production of the Type 109 self-propelled artillery.
This kind of artillery is used to replace the open-top Wild Bee self-propelled artillery, so that the Tang Empire can completely stop production of the chassis of the No. 4 tank and use precious production capacity to produce more advanced equipment.
The original No. 4 assault gun was completely eliminated due to overlapping functions and was replaced by new infantry fighting vehicles and wheeled tank destroyers.
The troops previously equipped with the No. 4 assault gun will be fully equipped with new wheeled tank destroyers, or simply equipped with field anti-aircraft anti-aircraft guns, or anti-tank missiles...
There is no way, the function of the tank destroyer has been completely squeezed out by the new weapons of the Tang Army, so the assault gun has completely become a useless weapon of the Tang Army.
The anti-tank task has been transferred to individual rocket launchers, new vehicle-mounted anti-tank missiles, and newly emerged armed helicopters and ground attack aircraft.
The task of attacking key tasks was contracted by new infantry fighting vehicles. The Tang Army itself did not lack heavy equipment such as tanks, so the 4 Bald Man who only installed a long-barreled 75mm caliber artillery had no choice but to go home to retire.
But it doesn’t matter, there are still many people who are willing to buy the heavy tanks and vehicles that the Tang Empire does not want. For example, the Yangmu Empire, the Chu State, the Orcs, and the Qin Empire.
Yes, that's right, the Great Qin Empire is also one of the buyers! In order to improve the mechanization level of his troops as soon as possible, Ying Duo is really willing to spend real money.
