Jagged Germany

Chapter 99: Squad firepower (for collection)



"His Royal Highness, now we are partners. I really want to know, how do you compete with Mauser and Rheinmetall in terms of small arms? You know, Mauser's Mauser 1898 rifle, this is the German Army standard rifle." Gustav Krupp looked curious.

   You must know that Mauser and Rheinmetall have a very large share of the German Army's small arms. For a long time, I don't know how many companies want to challenge them. However, none of them succeeded in the end. Even Krupp cannot compare with them in light weapons.

   "Of course, Mr. Krupp. For partners, I have never kept secrets." Qin Tian said with a smile. Of course he knew that Gustav Krupp was skeptical about whether Deutsche Arms could **** the army's share of weapons and equipment from Mauser and Rheinmetall. After all, their opponents are really too strong in this field.

  Qin Tian resigned from the briefcase he carried with him, and took out a stack of design drawings. These blueprints are all weapons and equipment designed by Qin Tian, ​​and the main parameters are marked on them.

   Gustav Krupp took a look, and then got stuck in these weapons and equipment.

"I think the firepower of our current army's platoons is still too weak. Although the army is equipped with MG08 heavy machine guns, that thing weighs 69 kilograms and requires several people to lift it. It simply cannot accompany the infantry on the front line. Attack together. Therefore, our army needs lighter and stronger squad firepower. This weapon in your hand, I call it a light machine gun, also known as a squad machine gun, which means a machine gun that can be equipped to an infantry squad." Qin Tian explained.

  The squad machine gun designed by Qin Tian is, to be precise, a plagiarized Czech machine gun. The performance of the Czech machine gun is certainly not the best among many light machine guns. However, the simple structure and good reliability make such a machine gun widely equipped with the Chinese army in another time and space, and it played a great role in the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War. Based on Germany's existing technology, it is not difficult to produce Czech machine guns.

   "Is every infantry squad equipped with a machine gun? If so, the army's firepower is too abnormal!" Gustav Krupp couldn't help but gasped.

"Each infantry squad is equipped with a light machine gun. In my opinion, this is very necessary. Whether it is offensive or defensive, the firepower is powerful, and it can always kill the most enemies at the lowest cost." Qin God said.

  He clearly remembered that in another time and space, the First World War turned into a trench warfare. In such a war, the power of machine guns is undoubtedly very terrifying. Especially for the defensive side, the machine gun is completely a sharp weapon for slaughtering enemy personnel!

  Gustav turned this page and looked at the second page. On the design drawing on the second page, it was still a machine gun. It's just that the shape is bigger and more murderous.

"This machine gun, I have become a general-purpose machine gun. Compared with the MG08 machine gun we are equipped with now, it is lighter in weight, and with the gun frame, it is only less than one-third. However, the firepower is more powerful than the MG08 heavy machine gun .Although it is still relatively heavy for infantry. However, a machine gun group can also be carried. In this way, when the infantry attacks, it can exert great firepower." Qin Tian continued.

   The general-purpose machine gun on the design drawings is the later German MG34 general-purpose machine gun that he plagiarized. Although the performance is slightly worse than that of MG42. But relatively speaking, the conditions for development are also simpler.

   Gustav Krupp nodded. If Deutsche Arms can develop this general-purpose machine gun, among other things, it will completely replace all MG08 heavy machine guns. There will be no problem. This weapon alone means a huge order!

  If squad machine guns can also be adopted by the army, and each infantry squad is equipped with one, then the order will be even greater.

   Although Gustav Krupp hasn't looked at the back design yet. But he has concluded that with Qin Tian's two machine guns, Deutsche Arms Company doesn't have to worry about losing money. If you want to make money, that's for sure.

  The design behind is two rifles, a semi-automatic rifle and a sniper rifle. Although the performance of the Mauser 1898 rifle is very good, the rate of fire is too slow. In future wars, the density of firepower will become more important. If infantry can be equipped with semi-automatic rifles, it will make the troops more powerful. Even directly gaining an overwhelming advantage in the war. The importance of sniper rifles is naturally self-evident. On the battlefield, a sniper equipped with a sniper rifle is simply synonymous with death. The enemy's low-level officers, machine gunners, etc., will all become their targets. The importance of snipers on the battlefield will become even more abnormal.

  Next, there are designs for grenades and mortars. Although mortar is not a new term anymore, since it appeared after the Russo-Japanese War, all countries have begun to pay attention to it, but its development is still very slow. Mortars are undoubtedly an extremely important infantry support weapon, and they will pose a deadly threat to enemy troops who are long in the trenches. However, the current development is still very slow. Qin Tian designed three types of mortars, namely 60mm light mortar, 81mm medium mortar and 120mm heavy mortar. Of course, these mortars are all plagiarized designs of later generations.

  The projectile is a smaller mortar, and the design principle is very similar to that of the mortar. However, it is lighter in weight and of course less powerful. One soldier can carry it, and it can also carry multiple grenades at the same time. Qin Tian believes that it is possible to equip each infantry squad with a grenade launcher. In this case, the firepower of the German infantry squad will become more powerful.

   Come to think of it, every infantry squad is equipped with light machine guns, grenadiers, sniper rifles and semi-automatic rifles. How powerful this will make the infantry firepower of the German Army become! In future wars, no matter which country's army it is in, it is likely that it will be severely suppressed by the German army in terms of firepower. It is naturally much easier for the German Army to win.

   After reading these designs, Gustav Krupp looked at Qin Tian with a hint of admiration. In his opinion, Qin Tian is clearly a genius! At the same time, I have more confidence in the German arms company.
