When ulyanko wanted to climb onto the tank, Gao Yang hurriedly said, "don't go up! The enemy has many snipers, and they have large caliber sniper rifles and heavy machine guns. It's too dangerous to go up now."
Ulyanko said indifferently, "it doesn't matter. I don't believe they can hit me and see the helicopter in the sky. If someone dares to fire, the people I hire at a high price will teach them to be human."
Polovich also stretched out his hand and asked ulyanko to pull him up. Immediately he said, "look if the top compartment door lock is dead. I don't want to have to forcibly open the top cover of this iron coffin."
"Hey, don't get too excited. What if there's still something alive?"
After touching his body, ulyanko reached out to Gao Yang and said, "just in case, give me a grenade."
Gao Yang sighed, simply climbed into the tank, took out a grenade, opened the insurance, and motioned to ulyanko to open the top cover.
Ulyanko grabbed the handle of the top hatch door and lifted it up. He easily pulled out a crack in the top cover. Then polovich looked happy and said, "great, they didn't lock the door, ha ha!"
As long as the cover on the top of the tank is locked from the inside, it is difficult to open it from the outside. Unless it is forcibly cut open with things such as gas welding, it is impossible to pry open it with things such as iron bars. However, if the top hatch door is only put down and not locked from the inside, it is of course easy to open it.
The space inside the tank is very small, and the field of vision is also very small. If you only rely on the periscope and observation hole to obtain the field of vision, it will be very difficult to drive and observe. Therefore, most of the time, the tank drives with the window open, and the top hatch will also be opened, so that the captain needs to drill out of the tank for observation temporarily, and the top hatch will be opened, It can also ventilate the hot and stuffy interior of the tank, so even in war, even if the tank closes the top hatch, few people will choose to lock the top hatch from the inside.
Another important reason for not locking the top hatch is that once the tank is shot and wants to run out of it, it is much more convenient to open the unlocked top hatch than to lock it. At that time, even one less action is good.
Without locking it from the inside, everything was easy to say. After ulyanko slightly opened a gap, Gao Yang immediately shouted to the inside: "is anyone alive? Someone alive, talk quickly and throw a grenade later."
There was no movement in the tank. After waiting for a moment, ulyanko nodded and completely opened the top hatch. Listening, there was still no movement inside. Polovich quickly looked at it and immediately said, "it's all right. The people inside are dead."
Gao Yang breathed a sigh of relief. After looking inside, he saw that both of them leaned down and didn't move. It should be the gunner and loader.
Ulyanko got into the tank and stretched out his hand to pull back the gunner who lay motionless in front of the tank gun sight. The gunner then leaned back and looked at the position of the top hatch.
At the sight of the gunner's face, Gao Yang was startled. He saw many dead people, but he didn't see anything at all. The seven orifices were only slightly bleeding. It was the first time for the dead man to see, and the dead man's eyes were still wide open.
After glancing at the dead gunner's already godless eyes, Gao Yang felt a burst of annoyance in his heart. He quickly turned his head around. He was not afraid to see the dead, but it was too uncomfortable to look at the dead.
Polovich looked at it and immediately said, "they were all shocked to death. Oh, I have a bad feeling."
Bolovich's body has become fat, and the space in the tank cabin is extremely narrow. There are corpses, and ulyanko can't hold him after he goes in, so bolovich shouted outside: "how? How? Is there anything that can be used? Should the tank gun be ok?"
Ulyanko didn't answer the question. He directly got out of the tank cabin, looked at bolovich, shook his head and said: "It's destroyed. Everything is destroyed. There's nothing that can be used. As long as the glass or similar things are all smashed, even the gun is broken. It looks all right, but it can't be used at all. As for the engine and so on, don't look. The gun is broken and the engine is estimated to be rotten."
Polovich was also very disappointed. After sighing, he looked at Gao Yang and said, "friend, how many C4 did you use?"
Gao Yang said with a wry smile, "three kilograms."
Ulyanko leaned out of the top cabin door and sighed: "this is the first time I've met this situation. It turned out that three kilograms of C4 could completely damage a tank when it exploded under the car. I really didn't know this before. Well, although it can't be recycled, it's good to know this and have a long experience."
Polovich pointed to the tank damaged by them and said, "look, although it was attacked by anti tank missiles, there must be something useful left in it. I hope the tank gun won't break."
The other tank was not far away and could arrive immediately. When he reached out to ulyanko and pulled him out, he said, "I'm curious. How much can a tank gun be worth?"
Polovich smiled: "it doesn't necessarily depend on the model and old and new. The new tank guns made by Germany are worth at least hundreds of thousands of dollars. Even the old ones are very valuable, while the guns made in Russia are much cheaper. In addition, the 120 mm guns must be much more expensive than the 105 mm ones."
Uliyangke also said with a smile: "it's even harder to say the recycled old guns. The guns used by the chief are linear guns, not smooth guns. This gun can only be made by British people, and it's difficult to make, so the price is very expensive. Even the old guns can sell for 200000 US dollars as long as they are in good condition. Of course, this is our selling price. I can give you 20000 for the purchase price."
Gao Yang glanced and said, "it's so dark."
Polovich shrugged and said, "if you stay in your hand, you'll get 20000 for us. So why not sell it? If it's someone else, I'll only give you a price of 2000 dollars to buy it."
Gao Yang is completely helpless. Ulyanko and polovich are worthy of being colleagues. They are indeed passers-by.
After the three men jumped out of the tank, Gao Yang remembered one thing and immediately said, "by the way, URI, look at the crew in the tank just now. Are they Russian or British?"
Ulyanko thought and said, "the driver has a Russian face, but it's hard for others to say. Oh, someone didn't wear the clothes of the tank crew, but wore a desert camouflage combat suit, which should not be the tank crew."
Gao Yang was delighted and immediately shouted to the people not far behind: "big dog, there should be a homzny man in here. Do you want to have a look?"
Groliov's spirit came when he heard it. Anyway, it was all right. As soon as he put the machine gun down, he immediately ran over and asked Gao Yang to check another tank first. He got into the tank cabin alone.
Another tank looked much more miserable. A small hole was blown out on the roof, almost in the middle, and next to the small hole was scorched black.
The top hatch of the second tank was not locked. This time, ulyanko didn't even have to shout. When he opened the hatch, he didn't think it was dirty, so he immediately got in.
The crew of the tank hit by the anti tank missile, or the body, can't see at all. Although there is only a small hole on the top of the tank, the interior of the tank is full of traces left by the impact and burning of metal jet, and the body is full of holes.
The warhead part of the anti tank missile belongs to the armor piercing projectile, and the destructive force caused by the action of the armor piercing projectile does not depend on how big a hole has been punched in the tank. After the armor piercing projectile breaks through the armor, it will immediately form overpressure in the tank, and at the same time, the temperature will be instantly heated to the ultra-high temperature of three or four thousand degrees, while the outside is just a small hole, not inside, I don't know how bad things will be inside.
Armor piercing projectile also kills personnel and destroys equipment by splashing fragments and ultra-high temperature metal liquid formed during overpressure and armor penetration. Because the energy of armor piercing projectile is mainly concentrated on armor breaking, its killing effect on passengers and equipment in the vehicle is lower than armor piercing projectile, and the probability of igniting oil in the vehicle is also lower than armor piercing projectile.
In addition, after the armor piercing projectile penetrates the thick armor of more than 100mm, the divergence angle between the fragment and the metal jet is only about 30 degrees, but for the thin armor, the divergence angle will increase to more than 100 degrees, while the divergence angle after the armor piercing projectile penetrates the armor is very stable. After penetrating the armor, the divergence angle of the fragment is 60 degrees, regardless of the thickness.
The top armor of the Sheikh tank is the weakest part of the whole tank, but it is still very thick. Therefore, after the anti tank missile breaks through it, although the people in the tank are dead, the damage to the equipment will not be particularly serious. In other words, although the damage of the tank destroyed by the helicopter seems to be much more serious than that destroyed by Rafael, But there is a greater possibility of recycling value.
Another key point is that although the chieftain tank is an old tank, its protection performance is still quite good. If it is a Russian made tank, the internal ammunition is likely to be detonated, and the whole tank is blown to pieces. It is useless except selling scrap iron, but the chieftain tank is still intact.
Sure enough, ulyanko endured the strong stench of several guns. After half a day of inspection in the tank, he finally put his black head out of the top hatch. After taking a few deep breaths, he said happily: "yes, yes, this tank can sell at least $200000 or $300000. Ram, how about I recycle 20000?"
Polovich also smiled and said, "yes, very good. We can make at least 200000 more dollars this time."
Gao Yang said helplessly, "sorry, guys, I still can't help it. I have to ask you, you are all rich people. It's only 200000 dollars. Is it worth your excitement?"
Ulyanko and polovich said in unison, not even a word bad at the same time: "of course, it's worth it. You don't understand. It's hard for arms dealers now. Besides, the profits of this business are all our own!"
