Dominate South Asia

The design concepts of tanks in the East and the West are different.

The East pays attention to smallness. The smaller it is, the smaller the projection area can be, and the probability of being hit can be reduced. At the same time, Western tanks pay more attention to human-machine engineering. In order to provide a good combat environment for tankers, their vehicles are relatively large, and the turrets are welded, which is a circle larger.

The larger turret brings more space. Twenty or thirty rounds of shells can be placed in the tail compartment. At the same time, the tail compartment of the turret can also balance the weight with the gun barrel. At the same time, there is a pressure relief plate at the back. Once the ammunition explodes, the pressure relief plate can be used to reduce the risk of explosion.

But this is only idealized. What will happen after the turret is hit can only be tested in actual combat. Now, when the Indian Arjun tank is hit, the ammunition inside immediately explodes, and the heavy turret is overturned.

The T-72 behind had almost the same result. The first round of fierce attack killed dozens of tanks in front. The armored forces behind did not fall into chaos. At this moment, they realized that the Pakistanis were coming!

The sacrifice in front won an opportunity for the back. Almost at the same time, they closed the hatch, turned off the headlights, turned on the infrared headlights, and began to enter combat status.

The tank turned and drove off the road. At the same time, in the bumps, the automatic loader loaded armor-piercing shells into the barrel.

Protect the capital!

Pakistan's armored forces appeared here. Their goal was very clear. It was not Kashmir, not Chandigarh, but New Delhi!

The 23rd Armored Brigade is India's trump card force. Now. They have shown their combat effectiveness. They have switched from marching to combat.

Unfortunately, they are still at a disadvantage in terms of equipment. The biggest disadvantage is the infrared headlights.

In the night vision goggles of the Leopard 2 tank, those infrared headlights are the best target indications. The commanders kept indicating the target. One shell after another was stuffed in, flew out of the muzzle, and flew towards the Indian armored forces on the opposite side.

The T-72 tanks continued to advance regardless of sacrifice. They wanted to rush forward and kill the Pakistani armored forces!

Unfortunately, they could not reach the edge. Their infrared headlights could only see the other side within a thousand meters, and at this time, the Pakistani tank forces on the opposite side. But they always remained a thousand meters away.

The Leopard 2 tank began to retreat backwards, while retreating, continuing to point the front of the car at the Indian army. Continuous firing.

The 59 tanks were running fast on the field, preparing to outflank the rear of this armored force and encircle and annihilate them in one fell swoop.

The Indians seemed to be crazy. Only a single tank was left, and they dared to continue to charge. Under such a fearless attack, there was really a T-72 tank. Approached to a distance of 800 meters, and then fired their own shells.

"Boom!" The muzzle was flaming, and the flying armor-piercing projectile with a discarding sabot tail stabilized shell flew towards the tank on the opposite side.

"Brake!" the commander shouted loudly: "Speed ​​up!"

The vehicle was originally moving backwards, but now the driver stepped on the brakes hard, and the vehicle stopped in the violent inertia. Then, the driver pushed the gear lever forward, shifted to the gear, and then stepped on the accelerator, and the Leopard 2 tank moved forward quickly.

At this moment. The armor-piercing shell had already flown over. Perhaps the opponent's fire control was not accurate. If the vehicle continued to move backwards, the opponent would not have been able to hit it at all. Now, it turned to moving forward, and it happened to be hit by the armor-piercing shell.

When the sound of impact came from outside the vehicle, all the tankers were frightened at that moment. This sound meant that they were hit. Maybe in the next second, the hot metal would enter and kill them directly, or the ammunition would be detonated, killing them completely.

As soldiers, when they put on their uniforms on the ship, they were ready to sacrifice for the country, but now they were about to fight in New Delhi. They didn't want to sacrifice here. They wanted to drive their tanks and rush into New Delhi!

The warhead of the armor-piercing projectile just pierced into the bra in front of the turret. The bra was made of advanced composite armor produced by Eastern countries. After the warhead penetrated, it relied on its slender body and huge kinetic energy to drill into it continuously. When it successfully penetrated the composite armor, it was exhausted and continued to move forward. It knocked down the main armor and continued to move forward for ten centimeters before finally stopping.

The collision sound outside stopped. There was nothing in the tank. There was no flying heat flow and no detonation of explosives. The commander's eyes stared at the sight and found that the field of view of the sight was crooked.

It must be that the commander's sight above was tilted in the huge impact just now!

"My sight is normal, we can continue to fight." The gunner on the side said.

"We are fine, continue to fight!" The commander shouted, opened the hatch, and got out from inside. Since the periscope could not be used, he would go out and observe directly!

During World War II, armored soldiers often did this: the top of the turret was not covered, and the commander used a telescope to observe the surrounding targets outside. When he found the target, he notified the gunner. Therefore, in the fierce battle, sometimes the commander would be hit by the enemy's shells, and the lower body inside the tank was still intact, but the upper body had been turned into pieces.

As the battle continued, the T-72 that rushed in, after firing its shells, was hit by three more shells in an instant and turned into a pile of scrap metal.

Here, the 59 tank had already detoured and surrounded the armored vehicle behind the armored brigade. At this time, the infantrymen had all got off the armored vehicle and began to resist on the spot.

These armored vehicles are OT-62 tracked armored personnel carriers. It is not an original Soviet product, but was jointly developed by Czechoslovakia and Poland based on the Soviet БТР-ПК armored personnel carrier. It was equipped with the Czech Army in 1964 and the Polish Army and Marine Corps in 1966. After that, a large number of Locally exported to foreign countries, the Indian army has also equipped more than 100 vehicles.

The armor of this armored vehicle is even weaker, and a 12.7mm machine gun can be penetrated with an armor-piercing warhead.

"Boom!" The 120mm tank gun of the 59 tank opened fire. What was fired was not an armor-piercing bullet, but a grenade. The fragments of the grenade flew away. The Indian soldiers who came out of the armored vehicle suddenly fell into pieces.

The machine guns of the 59 tanks were also firing continuously on both sides, killing and injuring a large number of enemies.

Suddenly, there was a flash of fire, and on the ground, an Indian soldier picked up an RPG rocket launcher and shot at a 59 tank.

"Boom!" The side of the 59 tank could not block the RPG's fire. Suddenly, the tank was penetrated and burst into flames.

The tank next to him kept firing machine gun bullets, and the sneak attacker was beaten into several pieces in an instant.

The battle was going on brutally.

India's 55th Mechanized Brigade also arrived shortly afterwards. Facing the sudden appearance of the Pakistani army, although they were also infantry, they still stayed.

Stick here and stop the Pakistani army from advancing. Even if they all die here, they must stop the Pakistani army!

The battle was so brutal that Indian soldiers even had explosives strapped all over their bodies to die with the Pakistani tanks.

At the same time, battle reports from the front line were quickly delivered to New Delhi.

Rajiv was not asleep yet. He was in the Ministry of Defense, looking ashen.

The two armored divisions were finished.

The 31st Armored Division and the 33rd Armored Division, India's most elite troops, all disappeared on Pakistani soil. The two armored brigades that followed to rescue also lost half of them. On the edge of the swamp, dozens of them were left. The 33rd Armored Division, which had only one tank, ran out of ammunition and fuel, so they chose to surrender.

The establishment of these two armored divisions will disappear from the Indian Army. Two entire armored divisions! During the bombing of the Pakistan Air Force and the pincer attack of their ground forces, they just disappeared.

Pakistan's losses should be about half an armored brigade and half an infantry division. Even so, it is a complete victory for Pakistan. Half an hour ago, the news reached New Delhi, and Rajiv's angry voice echoed throughout the Ministry of Defense. roar.

"Two armored divisions were lost like this. How can we explain to our people? All our senior officials should take the blame and resign!" Rajiv said: "Who came up with such a stupid idea to launch an attack in the swamp? Don’t you know that our tanks need fuel? Don’t you know that we can’t win the war without logistical supplies?”

No one answered Rajiv. When the plan was presented to Rajiv, Rajiv's expression was not like this. Moreover, the person who made the final decision was also Rajiv.

"We must fight back and make the Pakistanis pay the price!" Rajiv also went crazy: "Where are the Scud missiles? When will the Soviets deliver them?"

"Prime Minister, they have loaded it on the transport plane from the Soviet Union. In a dozen hours, they should be able to transport it to our airport." Sendarji said.

More than ten hours! This is already very fast. If it were shipped over, it would take several months. However, it is estimated that the Prime Minister cannot even wait for more than ten hours.

"Well, after arriving, immediately move to Sisar and launch into the desert area from there. Will our people be able to operate it?" Rajiv said.

"The Soviet Union will send some experts over at the same time to guide us in launching." Sendarji said.

In order to transport these missiles, the Soviet Union mobilized more than thirty An-22 transport aircraft. Even so, they could not transport them all at once and had to fly two or three times.

"Prime Minister, the main force of Pakistan's armored forces has appeared in Gernar!" At this moment, an adjutant came in hurriedly and reported. (To be continued ~^~)
