Chapter 236 Smithz 1887 Armored Chariot 【6/7】

Soon, two tracks were manufactured.

the next day.

After a day and a series of experiments, the engineers found that there was no difference between the two.

"These two shapes can well serve the purpose of fixing the tracks and steel wheels, so which one should we choose?"

An engineer looked at the others and said with difficulty.

"Wait, we just experimented with only wheels and tracks. Don't forget, the overall chariot is so heavy, so the wheels and tracks must be able to withstand such heavy lifting.

Fruit group control. "

"Let's experiment with how the two tracks perform under load.

Smith looked at the others at this time and said.

Smith et al. did not create a new experimental chariot, but replaced the steel wheels and tracks on the basis of the original chariot.

Different crawlers are used on both sides, one is a crawler that fits the steel wheel gear shape, and the other is a crawler that fits the steel wheel nail tooth shape.

"Okay, get ready to go!"

Smith stood in front of the chariot and said to the engineer driving the chariot inside the vehicle.

"clear."

Through the glass observation port in front of the cockpit of the chariot for watching the outside world, the engineer slowly started the redstone piston engine set.

"Boom, boom."

There was a roar on the chariot, and the next moment, the steel chariot began to start slowly.

After a total of 20 kilometers of the experiment was started, the vehicle stopped.

"Quick, check the difference between the two tracks."

At this time, Smith immediately beckoned people to go up to check the difference between the two tracks.

"Smith, the sprockets are unchanged and in good condition."

Soon, the result of the first inspection came out.

"The gear track has visible cracking on the gear surface!"

"My God, this kind of track can't be driven for too long, or it will be scrapped."

Another engineer shouted loudly at this time.

"how so?"

"The gear-shaped crawler is made of the same material as the needle-toothed crawler. Why is there such a result?"

At this time, the two engineers who were in charge of manufacturing the gear track were a little confused.

They don't understand why this happened.

Obviously the same steel material is used.

"I think it's because of the force area."

At this time, Smith came forward and saw that there were some cracks on the surface of the gear track. He said: "The needle-toothed track is the entire track that bears the pressure of the wheels and the vehicle."

The square-headed nails on the top are also directly fitted into the prototype steel wheel, and the force-bearing area is wider. "

"But the gear-shaped track, because the track is a section, there will be a piece of sawtooth on each section, although these sawtooth and the same sawtooth-shaped steel wheel fit each other."

"But the force-bearing area is different from the needle-toothed track. The surface of the sawtooth is under too much pressure, so it will crack directly."

Smith thought for a while, then gave a reasonable explanation.

"Then, that's it. The crawlers in the future will use needle-toothed crawlers."

"And these steel wheels are called road wheels.

Smith said.

After determining the model of the track, Smith et al. began to re-install and build the road wheel and track.

Soon, the first tracked armored combat vehicle was completed.

This tracked armored combat vehicle is seven meters long, four meters wide, and four meters high.

Net weight eleven tons.

Six pairs of road wheels, using six groups of redstone piston mechanical groups.

The speed of wheel spin can reach twelve horsepower.

A speed of one hundred and twenty kilometers per hour.

But this is the speed at which the wheels are idling, and the real driving speed is forty-five kilometers per hour.

Can carry people inside.

There is a row of small shooting ports on the armor, which allows the sergeant to hold a musket and shoot outwards.

Weapons and equipment are limited to this.

The chariot itself does not have any powerful weapons and equipment, and the cast iron cannon is too heavy to be loaded on the armored chariot for fear of affecting the speed.

But such a steel chariot, in this era, doesn't need any weapons, just rampage directly on the battlefield, that's enough!

And the purpose of this armored combat vehicle is to carry people.

This kind of chariot is seven meters long and four meters wide, and can carry more than 20 soldiers.

All you need is mobility.

First of all, not many tracked armored combat vehicles have been produced, only about five have been produced.

Because there is not much demand for such things in the oblique moon city at the moment.

And Don Juan also named this tracked armored combat vehicle [SmithT1887 experimental armored combat vehicle.

1887, this is not the number of years, but the number of times the engineering team failed to build this tank.

They failed 1,886 times.

Finally, at the 1887th time, the test was successful, and this chariot was manufactured.

This is a day worth remembering. .
