BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1480: Strength comparison
In addition, the "King Tiger" tank is also equipped with an artillery stabilizer, which allows the "King Tiger" tank to fire even when it is moving. Unlike other tanks, in order to fire, you have to stop first. In that case, it not only increases the difficulty of hitting, but also increases the danger. After all, the tank is in a state of prohibition, the probability of being hit is much higher.
Qin Tian attached great importance to the \'King Tiger\' tank. He even regarded this tank as one of the main weapons for Germany to win the war. It can be seen how high expectations Qin Tian placed on this tank.
"Your Majesty, the development of the \'King Tiger\' tank is going very smoothly. It will be mass-produced in at most three months!" Marshal Manstein said.
Qin Tian nodded, three months is not a long time. Even if a war broke out between Germany and the United States, it would be impossible to tell the winner within three months. Even if the German Navy performed very well and defeated the US Navy within three months. But if you want to land in the United States, you still have to wait for a long time. Therefore, the German Army still has enough time to wait for the new tanks to enter the ranks.
"The production of the \'Black Panther\' tanks is all shut down, and the main production is the \'Tiger\' tanks. After the \'Tiger King\' tanks are mass-produced, find a way to give priority to the production of 12 battalions to form 12 heavy tank battalions!" Qin Tian said.
Although the performance of the "Black Panther" tank is still very strong, there is really no need to invest in resource production when the "Tiger" tank has already entered service in large quantities, and even the "Tiger King" tank is about to enter service. Although the "Tiger" tank is more expensive, its performance is also stronger. Once the German Navy defeats the U.S. Navy and lands in the United States, it will need to invest in more and more powerful armored forces. After all, the continental United States is too vast. Very suitable for armored troops to fight. Even if the \'Black Panther\' tank is eliminated, it can be equipped to the servant army. Once Germany attacks the United States, it will not only send elite German troops, but also send a large number of servants. After passing the test of the Russian battlefield, the many German servants can still be reused once they have passed the test of blood and fire.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Marshal Manstein nodded.
"Your Majesty, in addition to tanks, the German Army Air Corps has also developed newer aircraft. They are replacing the old P-40 fighters with P-47 fighters and P-51 fighters. These two fighters are of great importance to us. The aircraft equipped by the Chinese Air Force may pose a great threat." Marshal Manstein continued.
"Marshal Kesselring? Is the Air Force prepared for this?" Qin Tian asked.
The United States has not yet established an air force. The Army Air Force and the Naval Air Force govern the flying units of the Army and Navy respectively.
"Your Majesty, the Air Force is ready. Our BF-109 fighter jets, except that they are not as good as the American P-47 fighter jets and P-51 fighter jets, are not weaker than them. As for the FW-190 fighter jets, In terms of combat performance, it is even stronger than the two American fighters. In addition, our TA-152 fighter is about to enter mass production. Once this fighter enters service, the advantages of our air force will be even greater Big!" Marshal Albert Kesselring replied confidently.
Indeed, the American P-47 fighter jets and P-51 fighter jets can be regarded as advanced fighter jets. But the BF-109 fighter jets and FW-190 fighter jets currently in service in the Luftwaffe are also classic fighter jets. As for the TA-152 fighter, it is the pinnacle of the propeller fighter. In addition, the German Air Force\'s jet fighter development is also at the forefront of the world. Although the Luftwaffe has not yet started to equip jet fighters, it is because Qin Tian asked the Luftwaffe to further develop it. He hoped that the jet fighters equipped by the Luftwaffe would not be like the Führer\'s ME-262, but fighter jets closer to the shape of later generations. Therefore, the German scientists are still working hard to meet Qin Tian\'s request.
Qin Tian nodded. The German Air Force still has a leading edge in terms of fighter jets. However, in terms of bombers, the gap between the two sides is not that big. The B-17 bomber equipped by the U.S. Army Air Force has almost the same performance as the H-21 bomber of the German Air Force. The overall performance of the B-24 bomber of the U.S. Army Air Force is close to that of the H-31 bomber being mass-produced by the Luftwaffe. However, the B-24 bomber of the U.S. Army Air Force is still under development. As for the more advanced B-29 bomber, there is no shadow yet. The German Air Force\'s H-41 bomber is already under development.
"The scale of strategic bombers needs to be further expanded. We need more and more advanced strategic bombers. The US industry is strong. If we want to defeat the US, we have to dispatch a large number of strategic bombers to bomb US industrial bases. Only the US We will be able to defeat them only after their industrial base is destroyed!" Qin Tian said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Marshal Albert Kesselring replied.
"Marshal Raeder? What about the navy? The U.S. Navy is the enemy of the Imperial Navy." Qin Tian said.
Once a war breaks out between the United States and Germany, the navy will undoubtedly be the main force in the first confrontation between the two sides. If the United States wants to attack Europe and threaten Germany, it needs to kill the German navy. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the US army is, it will not be able to reach Europe. The barrier of the Atlantic Ocean makes the Americans can only look at the ocean and sigh.
Similarly, if Germany wants to kill the United States, it needs the navy to defeat the U.S. Navy first. In this way, the powerful German army can land in the United States under the protection of the navy.
