Romanian Eagle

The latest website: In the test site, a tank was driving rapidly in the complex field. It plunged into half-meter-deep water, then drove out energetically, and then climbed up to a high point effortlessly, and then crossed the through a ditch.

The next step is a completely simulated battlefield environment, trenches distributed like spider webs, various sandbags built up, wood and steel bars and other materials that are messed up, plus a bunker in the distance. It seems that there is no difference between coming and the battlefield, they are all so messy.

The people at the observation platform were paying close attention to the performance of the tank. I saw that this tank effortlessly crossed the trenches, pressed the supported wood and steel bars and other materials, and pushed down the built sandbags, like a fearless steel warrior, and used its incomparably powerful main gun, Name the bunker in turn.

"It's amazing, it's amazing."

After Hitler at the observatory put down the telescope in his hand, he couldn't help but praised the tank's performance. And his words made the accompanying German officers feel hot on their faces. Compared with the Romanian R20 tank, the No. 3 and No. 4 tanks being developed by Germany are completely unreadable.

Because the armored firepower of No. 3 and No. 4, which has not yet been finalized, is completely unmatched by the R20 tank. Although influenced by Romania, the No. 3 and No. 4 currently under development in Germany are much stronger than in history, but their maximum data of 18 tons (No. 3) and 25 tons (No. 4) limits armor and firepower. Moreover, the two tanks are also divided into functions, one anti-tank (No. 3) and one anti-infantry (No. 4).

And from the information learned from Romania, the armor of the R20 tank it is equipped with is far from being penetrated by the 50mm anti-tank gun it is equipped with on No. 3, and the No. 4, which has a larger tonnage, is equipped with a 75mm main gun, but The short tube 75mm has worse breakdown performance against the tank.

At this time, the German officers present discovered that they had not yet had a finalized tank, and that none of them was a Romanian opponent. This made the German officers feel very embarrassed. There was a big killer that they secretly prepared to deal with the enemy. As a result, the weapon that the other party unintentionally revealed was better than their own. If you count it carefully, you will be beaten up.

Although Romania is not a German target, the situation is similar, and they are all possible threats in the future.

And Hitler didn't know that the tanks he was developing were already lagging behind other countries. If it weren't for being in Romania, he would have even wished to scold these officers fiercely, so that these arrogant Junkers officers like a swan would have a good look and know about Germany's backwardness in new weapons and equipment.

As for General Guderian, who proposed the new tank index, he was right behind Hitler, but his face was redder than a monkey's ass, and he even wished that there would be a seam on the ground to allow him to get in. Because the German tank indicators are developed by themselves,

The Romanian tank indicators were formulated by General Hoffman. From this tank indicator, he is behind.

If the two countries really want to go to the battlefield, their own tank troops are definitely not the opponents of the tank troops commanded by Hoffman. Although the tank unit cannot only talk about tank performance, but also has officers and soldiers training, understanding of tactical concepts, etc., but he has communicated in Romania for several years, and he is very clear about the capabilities of Romanian armored forces. Not weaker than Germany, and some of the Romanian armored units that have experienced the war are stronger than their own armored units.

After watching the performance of the R20 tank, Admiral Freiette, the chief of the general staff who led the team, said to Hitler in front of him. "Your Excellency, our army also has a heavy tank. I don't know if you want to see it."

Why did Admiral Fereit lead Hitler to watch Romania's new equipment, which had instructions from Eder. Because Romania is no better than itself about Germany's combat effectiveness, it can be said that even the Germans themselves don't know how strong their explosive combat effectiveness is.

In order to make Germany pay more attention to Romania and gain more advantages in the future competition for interests, Eder fully displayed Romania's strength, so as to avoid misjudgment between the two countries and lay a good foundation for the next peace talks.

As for Hitler not knowing this, it's simply impossible. As the greatest statesman before the Second World War, he knew this all too well, but Romania's display of strength really surprised him, because Romania's performance was clearly ready for war. So of course he doesn't mind being able to intuitively understand Romania's strength.

So, accompanied by Admiral Freiette, after the R20 tank left the field, a more majestic tank appeared in front of everyone.

"This is my country's heavy-duty tank R30. Its height is 2.75 meters, its width is 3.12 meters, and its length is 7.81 meters. The total weight is 47.6 tons, the maximum speed is 46 kilometers per hour (road), the cross-country speed is 19-23 kilometers per hour, and it is equipped with a door of 88 mm 52 times. Tank guns."

In fact, in the earliest choice of the main gun, the military as the user was very embarrassed. Because the earliest military idea was to use the 105 caliber as the main gun of choice, forming a clear gap with the R20's 75 mm main gun.

However, due to the difficulty of developing the 105 tank gun, there is no 105 tank gun that can be installed in the R30 tank. The military had to find a replacement, and the 88mm anti-tank gun was chosen.

It was an 88mm gun originally used as an anti-aircraft gun. It was accidentally discovered that it was equipped with armor-piercing projectiles, and it had a particularly strong penetrating power to armor. Therefore, in line with the principle of taking it, the 88mm anti-aircraft gun was equipped on the tank without business.

However, the 88mm tank gun equipped on the R30 tank is much more optimized than the anti-aircraft gun (mainly to reduce weight, reduce multiples and reduce recoil). The 88mm gun, which has undergone seven changes and eight changes, unexpectedly appeared in front of everyone.

Therefore, after a brief introduction by Admiral Fereit, the German officers on the scene immediately raised their telescopes to observe this heavy tank during the period.

Heavy tanks existed during World War I. In the early days of tanks, there was a flurry of demons, and all kinds of tanks could be seen. Not to mention the speechless Tsar tank, Germany alone has developed the "K-WAGEN" heavy tank weighing 150 tons.

And France is not far behind. They developed the FCM2C super-heavy tank, which is also the only mass-produced super-heavy tank. Its weight of up to 94 tons has never been surpassed by its younger generation. The FCM2C, like an armored train, is still in France. Serving in the military, it shines brightly. (If you are interested, you can go to Baidu yourself)

However, after the end of World War I, heavy tanks were basically put into the garbage heap, because these expensive toys were simply impractical. As the third-heaviest tank in the world known at present (except for the French grandfather and the Soviet T35 in front of it), it has also been introduced so grandly by the Romanian army, so this R30 heavy tank must have its own advantages.
