A Mercenary’s War - Chapter 2445

[Chapter 2412 Pros and cons]

“I’m going to the front line, is there any problem?”

“There are many problems, and they are serious! First, we don’t have a suitable transport vehicle to transport the self-propelled artillery, and I can’t find enough fuel delivery vehicles, so I really I don’t know how to transport our self-propelled guns to the front line.?August 1?Chinese? W≈W≥W≠.≤8≈1≤Z≤W≥.=C≈O≈M≠”

Rebrov this Said, Gao Yang’s head was big, and he immediately said anxiously: “Salim said he was looking for a trailer, didn’t he deliver it?”

“It didn’t deliver, and Salim said that it is very likely that we will not be able to gather what we need. Trailer!”

Gao Yang was a little anxious, how could his five self-propelled guns be transported to the border without a trolley.

“Fake! I’ll urge Salim again. If we really can’t find a trolley to transport our cannons, how about driving the cannons directly over there? Can we stick to it?”

Rebrov shook his head. , said with a bitter look: “Impossible, the motorcycle hours are not enough, if you drive directly, all the self-propelled artillery will definitely break down on the way, the most troublesome thing is that we don’t have the accessories! There is no way to repair it, 300 kilometers. Driving all the way, and maintaining it every 50 kilometers are two different things.”

Gao Yang was completely depressed.

In this world, tanks and self-propelled artillery are basically all tracked. There are only a few types of wheeled self-propelled artillery. Tracked armored vehicles have better off-road performance and can run on most terrains. Wheeled armored vehicles also have certain advantages. Off-road ability, but it is impossible to leave the road. It does not mean that it is impossible to drive off the road, but the off-road ability is much worse than that of tracked vehicles.

Tracked armored vehicles have good off-road performance, and can gallop freely on the field during wars, but there are also drawbacks, that is, long-distance transfers must be transported by vehicles, rather than relying on their own ability to travel.

Tracked armored vehicles are not suitable for driving on the road. It is a trivial matter to damage the road surface. The trouble is that long-distance driving will cause damage to the tracks and road wheels. How could the battle be fought, so when fighting at a long distance, equipment such as tanks and self-propelled artillery had to be pulled over by trailers.

Another problem is that tanks and armored vehicles are all gas hogs, and they consume 40 to 50 liters of diesel fuel for one hour of driving. Tanks and self-propelled artillery are not designed to run on the road, although the limit can be driven to 50 to 60 kilometers. , but when driving off-road, when it can reach 30 kilometers, it makes people feel like the speed is fast, and when running on the road, the fastest is 30 to 40 kilometers, you really have to run according to the design limit, wait. After a few hundred kilometers of road, it is time to overhaul, and the engine and transmission system have to be overhauled.

Another very important and troublesome issue is motorcycle hours.

The working hours of the motive are called motorcycle hours. Heavy vehicles such as tanks and armored vehicles will be equipped with a motive hour meter. After the motive has worked for a certain period of time, it must be overhauled.

Modern tank armored vehicles need to be maintained if they run for less than four or five motorcycle hours, and if they run more than ten motorcycle hours, they should be inspected and maintained, and large items such as motives and gearboxes need to be maintained,

so If the self-propelled artillery is to be driven by itself, Gao Yang and the others will have to prepare a lot of fuel, and they must be overhauled after they reach the place.

In a war, self-propelled artillery is definitely more convenient and easier to use than towed guns, and its survivability is stronger. All combat systems are integrated on a vehicle. It must be good to fight and run, but when you enjoy convenience, you have to Paying a great price is that it usually takes more energy and cost to maintain, so although self-propelled artillery is much more useful than towed artillery, it is impossible to completely replace towed artillery.

Now Gao Yang and the others are facing such a problem. They have self-propelled artillery, but there is no delivery vehicle, there is no fuel tanker to supply fuel to the self-propelled artillery, and there is no special ammunition supply vehicle. With five self-propelled artillery, it is impossible to drive. Go out for dozens of kilometers and find a gas truck.

What’s more, Yemen didn’t see any gas stations at all after leaving several big cities.

Gao Yang looked at Masiyev and said loudly, “Our self-propelled artillery can run for a few hours without any problems?”

Masiyev wiped the black oil on his hands, and after thinking for a while, lowered his voice. Said: “There should be no problem with all five self-propelled guns running for three motorcycle hours, but two of them need to be replaced, but we have no accessories, so we can only use them all the time, waiting for the time to come, I really can’t guarantee whether it can be repaired and continue to operate.”

There are five self-propelled artillery pieces, and they can’t be thrown away and then pulled to the front line. The fighting method envisaged by Gao Yang, the towed artillery is difficult to support, mainly because It is impossible to achieve combat effects on the premise of ensuring safety, so self-propelled artillery is still necessary.

Gao Yang said with some annoyance: “Why didn’t you tell me about the lack of accessories? You won’t tell me until this time.”

Masiyev was a little nervous, and said nervously: “I thought it was useless, because there are no accessories in Yemen. Yes, these guns are lacking in maintenance. Many items require maintenance for five motorcycle hours. Here, it takes a dozen or even twenty motorcycle hours for maintenance. Once some parts need to be replaced, it will take a long time. Rebrov was also very annoyed and said:

”

Masiev has been here for too long. He is used to tinkering with his life. I just found out the specific situation. However, Masiev is indeed very powerful.” Yes

, without him, our self-propelled artillery should have been damaged.”

Gao Yang is very helpless, the situation here is actually very common, in places like Africa and Yemen, many slightly more advanced things are directly If it is worn out, UU read www.sonicmtl.com because no one knows about maintenance.

“I don’t blame you for the situation this time, but remember, what accessories and maintenance you need in the future, you must say in advance, I will give you everything you need, but how will we know if you don’t say it.

” Thunder, but Masiev said tremblingly: “Yes, yes, I know, this situation will not happen next time.”

Gao Yang waved his hand and said to Masiev: “Quickly make a list of the accessories you need, and prepare to make allowances. Go, hurry up and don’t miss anything.”

Masiev was extremely surprised. Said

: “Yes, I’ll go right now, can I really get the accessories? Uh, sorry, I’ll go right away!”

Masiyev hurried away, while Rebrov whispered, “Boss, Is time so tight? I think it’s better to let Salim find a trailer, we should pay attention to some things and there should be no problem.”

Gao Yang said solemnly: “Regardless of whether there is a trailer, you must prepare the accessories, be prepared, time is tight. A little, but it doesn’t matter, we can arrange airdrops, and our transport planes finally come in handy.”
