Chapter 397

“What? No one was lost, but 17 of the other was destroyed? General, are you kidding me?” Xie Kai was a little weird.

He thought about the 359 tank’s first appearance on the battlefield many times, and also thought about the worst result.

Why did Iraq’s under-trained tank crews make mistakes in their operations, causing tank failures and being besieged and exploded by Iranian tanks? What did the two sides still do, the tanks were placed in formation, and then 359 tanks were set on fire and exploded; or the powerful firepower of 359 tanks was destroyed by Iran? The armored soldiers are seen as a thorn in the eye and stabbed in the flesh. They can be solved by the death squad waving anti-tank mines, or they can be killed with anti-armor missiles…

All kinds of worst plans have been considered.

I never thought about it. I was besieged for the first time, and then killed 17 of the opponents, without losing any of my own.

“It’s not that there is no loss, but the loss is relatively minor, and it does not affect the continued combat. The opponent’s tank hits the armor and is either bounced or blown into a pit, or the armor-piercing projectile is nailed to the armor…”

Ibrahim said awkwardly.

“Quickly talk about it, what is going on?” Xie Kai became interested. “359 tanks, your tank soldiers should not be proficient…”

Without proficiency in operation, the new equipment goes directly to the battlefield and confronts the enemy!

How to achieve this effect?

How can I not be curious?

“Let’s talk about helping or not.” Ibrahim looked at Xie Kai with a smile on his face.

Xie Kai rolled his eyes straight away, “I’ll talk about it first, 2.2 million US dollars, it’s impossible.”

In terms of price, it is impossible to relax.

But 3 million US dollars, maybe, it is still possible to arrive.

“The 359 tank, after entering the country, was taken over by the best armored basic-level officers and soldiers of the Tikrit Division. Under the guidance of the technicians from your side, I became familiar with it…” Ibrahim began to talk about the 359 tank after it arrived in Iraq. Happening.

Although the most advanced tanks from China have superior theoretical and technical performance, they are naturally unlikely to receive too much attention when they are not in actual use.

The Soviet T72 tank does not meet the Tikrit division. When there is no excellent equipment to use, naturally, it can only mobilize the T72 nationwide.

The wedge-shaped turret, the 359 tank with a western face, is extremely conspicuous among the Soviet tanks that are all spherical turrets.

Without too much testing, the 359 tank often broke down or malfunctioned.

The best grassroots officers, driving the most advanced tanks, would have made the surrounding troops dissatisfied. Who can admit that he is not good as a soldier?

It can be seen that the 359 tank has various faults, such as running and running and the track is falling off. This tank company faces not envy, but ridicule.

If it were not for General Ishad’s efforts to appease, it is estimated that all the grassroots young officers from Tikrit would have to throw away the tanks from China. For them, the unstable performance of the 359 tank is a moving iron coffin.

Not even as good as the Type 69 main battle tank bought from China.

But General Issad had high hopes for these tanks, and the President also attached great importance to them.

Ever since, the Tekrit officers operating the 359 tanks, in the name of long-distance training, moved 11 tanks from China to the south.

Ishad has been thinking about it for such a long time and is familiar with the basic operations. In addition, the Chinese technicians also said that the long-distance training can find problems more and make the tank soldiers familiar with the operation more quickly.

As a result, 11 359 tanks rushed toward the southern theater with several engineering tanks and some cars with vulnerable parts.

Tikrit’s young officers originally wanted to go to the battlefield, carrying a few guns on the old tanks that were attacked by the Iranians. If they were pierced or unable to move, they would naturally not be allowed to use them. Such a garbage tank.

Therefore, from the station close to the Jordanian border from the northwest, straight through the southeast border.

“Stop selling it off, talk about war quickly!” Xie Kai urged.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Ibrahim is complaining about this, 359 tanks have a high failure rate.

There is no finalization, and they are still in the testing stage. They are all prototype cars. Even the materials and processing have not yet implemented a complete system. Such problems were clearly explained when the two parties signed the trial contract.

Moreover, 11 359 tanks were initially sold to Iraq as training tanks.

“Don’t worry, we will enter the war soon. With so many breakdowns of your tanks, our young officers dislike it very much…” Ibrahim looked at Xie Kai, shaking his head and sighing, “So, just by relying on At this point, the price has to be lowered…”

The old guy never forgets about bargaining.

“Since your country’s military officer doesn’t like it, let’s not sigh…ha…” Xie Kai hit Hatch, stretched his waist, and prepared to leave.

Ibrahim hurriedly grabbed him, and then went on.

Under Ibrahim’s narration, Xie Kai was taken into that small-scale but not small tank war.

“Herad, hurry up! Is something wrong again? Let those Chinese quickly fix it and go to Basra right away.” In an area more than 20 kilometers northeast of Basra, a team of wedge-shaped turrets, painted in brown and yellow desert camouflage The tank is moving at high speed.

The last tank with 211 painted in white paint was several kilometers away from the tank in front.

The middle car had several long antennas, and the captain in the tank painted with white 201 was dissatisfied and asked what was going on with car 211.

“Company commander, our armored vehicles have not caught up.” Herald of Car 211 reported grievously. “General Ishad said, we must stay with the entire convoy!”

“Don’t forget why we are here. Don’t you want to drive this kind of garbage all your life? It’s killing us!” the company commander roared, “Just go to the battlefield and let those damn Persians give two shots. We can continue to drive the powerful T72.”

“Mataji, if the general knew…”

“How would they know! We lost our way on the way to Basra, and when we arrived at the border, we encountered a Persian armored unit…” Company commander Mataji replied dissatisfiedly to the deputy commander of car 202, “Tazak , If you are scared, you can go back.”

After speaking, he spoke to the whole team again.

No one wants to go back.

This month, they were fed up with this type of tank from China.

It looks extremely advanced, but the operation is complicated, which makes them extremely unaccustomed, especially with a lot of malfunctions.

“Since no one is going back, then, let us say goodbye to these damn Chinese tanks. Follow my order and turn to Xiangdong, the target border! Check your ammunition facility…” Mataji said, licking his lips.

But I was praying in my heart not to be hit by Persian tanks or heavy artillery.

“Mataji, our fuel is only half, and the armored vehicles have not come up. Once we encounter an ambush from the other side…” Tazak was worried, trying to stop Mataji.

“It’s only 25 kilometers away from Basra. Going east, it’s already on the edge of the battlefield. The heavy firepower of both sides is facing off across the Arabian River on the front battlefield of Basra… Do you think the damn Persians will cross the river in this area?” Ma Taji answered Tazak with disdain.

After speaking, he took the lead in commanding the pilot and turned to the east.

Under the condition of full horsepower, No. 201 commanded the tank, and the crawler continuously moved quickly to the back under the high-speed rotation of the driving wheel, raising the sand on the ground high.

“Boom~ boom~” The roar of the tank engine roared.

Inadvertently, the 202 and 211 tanks remained at the end.

“Tazak, what shall we do?” Hrad, the commander of the No. 211 tank, asked Tazak, who was in charge of the position of deputy company commander.

In the entire team, all the captains have the rank of captain.

The other pilots and gunners were at least lieutenants.

Tikrit’s most outstanding and most loyal grassroots officer to the President is also the backbone of the expansion of Tikrit’s division.

“Follow up, otherwise what should I do?” Tazak was helpless, “If it is the best success, would you be willing to drive such a tank all the time? Those bastards who are responsible for purchasing don’t know how many rebates are received from the Chinese!”

“The construction truck hasn’t come yet, if it breaks down at the border…”

“That’s not right? If our tank breaks down or breaks down during the battle, will General Isad insist on it? Our expanded Second Armored Brigade, I heard that it is ready to use this as the main battle tank! This is not only It hurt our brother, and it hurt the honor of the entire Tikrit…” Tajik’s words are very realistic.

Seeing car No. 202 roaring toward the dust, and chasing the convoy that was already a kilometer or two away from them, Herald could only chase it.

These 359 tanks are slightly more powerful than the Soviet T72 in terms of power.

However, the failure rate and the complexity of the operation make it difficult for them to adapt.

In other words, they don’t like too much electronic equipment.

These electronic equipment are not even as useful as other tank targeting devices.

Many officers who came to Tikrit even felt that many of the things in it were useless.

A convoy of 11 tanks rushed towards the border area in the northern area of ​​Basra. In the area with thousands of people in the sky, two Iraqi fighters in formations on patrol missions spotted the team, lowered their height, and found it. These weird tanks passed the message to the Basra combat headquarters, and they were confirmed to be their own new tanks before they continued their patrol missions.

If the Persian tanks came in, there can be no news, and the direction is the opposite, right?

“General, the new tank company from the Second Armored Brigade of Tikrit Division has entered our defense area.” Qasim is studying the battle map, and the communications staff comes to report.

Qasim raised his head, “Where is it?”

“The area 20 kilometers to the north is currently heading towards the border area at high speed.”

“What are they going to do?” Qasim was even more puzzled and angry. Tikrit’s bastard has always been defiant. “Isn’t their station in the north? The defensive position is not in the Mandali area? Do you want to break it? The silence now?”
