On this day, Ernest and several military bosses of the Popular Front of Western Sahara came to Lin Rui together.

"Mr. Rick, you have done a great job this time. Not only did you defeat the enemy's offensive plot, but also captured a considerable number of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles for us. This is really a remarkable result." Niceto nodded.

"Mr. Rick, in fact, we came to you to discuss with you, we want to use these captured tanks and infantry fighting vehicles to form an armored unit of our own.

We would like to know if you will provide training in this area, we have benefited a lot from the adjustments to the training of our infantry units some time ago. So I would like to ask you to continue to train this armored squad. "A senior military official rushed.

Lin Rui looked at him, "Judging from the amount of armor captured this time, there should be no problem in organizing an armored battalion for some tanks and infantry fighting vehicles.

But I advise you not to do it. There are two reasons for this. Armored units need supporting logistical facilities. It is impossible for your tanks and armor not to be damaged, and that will require repairs.

Maintenance requires professional maintenance personnel, supporting maintenance equipment, and various armored technical support for maintenance equipment, tools and instruments. In addition, you must be equipped with replaceable parts.

The personnel aspect is a problem, and the expense aspect is not easy for you either. It should be known that tank armored vehicles do have powerful firepower, good protection performance, and fast maneuverability, and are an indispensable backbone of army ground warfare.

But it is composed of thousands of parts and has a complex structure. The repair is difficult, the time span is long, there are many people who need to coordinate, and the management is difficult. For you, there is no such condition at all.

Only tank maintenance works are divided into disassembly and assembly, electric welding and gas welding, ordnance, electrical equipment, optical instruments, radio, charging and technical maintenance according to the maintenance profession.

You don't have the technical talent in this area, and even if you want to acquire these skills through training, it is not a matter of one or two days. The cost of another armored battalion.

Soviet and Russian tanks have always been characterized by being stupid, big and black. In fact, it is also beneficial, that is, the cost of fuel and maintenance is low. Even if the T72 tank has a nominal fuel consumption rate of 245 grams per kilowatt-hour, assuming driving at a speed of 40 kilometers per hour, the fuel consumption per kilometer will reach about 4 liters.

The German Leopard 2 tank, which is famous for its machinery manufacturing, has high engine power, advanced transmission, and a nominal fuel consumption rate of 245 grams per kilowatt-hour. When the Leopard 2 runs smoothly at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, the fuel consumption is nearly 5 liters per kilometer.

The fuel tank volume of the Leopard 2 is 1200L, the internal fuel of the T72/90 plus the additional fuel tank is about 1600L, and the internal fuel of the M1 tank has reached 1900L. These are veritable "oil tigers".

Especially a tank is different from a car. The engine cannot stop even if it is not moving in place, because there are too many devices on the car that need to provide power. Moreover, unlike cars, tanks basically take roads, and often take dirt roads or mountain roads. The fuel consumption of each road is different.

Tanks often have to work in harsh environments such as bumps, sand, high temperature, and low temperature, which makes the maintenance interval of the power unit of the tank shorter. Every 30~50 hours of use or 1500~2500 kilometers of travel, deep maintenance and cleaning are required. , replace the lubricating oil and coolant.

The time interval between overhaul and maintenance of tanks is also much shorter than that of cars. Usually, minor repairs depend on the situation. If they are not half-open, they have to be repaired. After 20 hours of driving, they have to be repaired. After 200 hours, the engine has to be sent for major repairs. The entire tank had to be sent back to the factory for overhaul within hours.

Due to the poor use conditions of the tank engine, the load changes drastically. The specified time for the first-level engine is 450 motorcycle hours, and the specified time for the second-level engine is only 300 motorcycle hours. That is to say, the tank needs to be replaced after 300 hours of use.

Of course, the replaced engine is not scrapped and can also be used in other civilian equipment. Each part of the tank has rules for replacement, such as how many rounds the gun barrel fires after being replaced, how many rounds the gun barrel fires after being replaced, and how many hours the stabilizer is used for replacement.

All of these costs are taken into account, and all of you here will be taken aback. So things like tank armor are rich people's toys. With the current situation of your Popular Front for Western Sahara, you cannot afford it.

IMHO, if you have the money, it is not recommended that you invest in an armored battalion. Might as well use it to develop other troops. For example, to purchase some vehicles, at least let most troops complete motorization. "

Ernest and several senior military officials suddenly looked a little embarrassed. Ernest smiled bitterly and said to Lin Rui, "I also know that the cost of paying an armored battalion is not low. It's just that we have received some aid funds from other countries one after another in the past few days. So I want to ask if it is possible for you to be at a low cost. maintain an armored force at a cost."

"It's possible. But reducing maintenance costs means that this armored force is just a display. It has no combat power and can only show off. The Moroccans can do it, and the Algerians can do it. After all, their national strength is displayed. there.

As for you, the Popular Front for Western Sahara, I advise you to give up these impractical ideas. "Lin Rui shook his head.

"But what about these captured tanks and infantry fighting vehicles? After we capture them, we can only put them in the warehouse to rust?" A military official couldn't help but said.

"This is not ~www.readwn.com~ so I suggest you find a reliable arms dealer and sell all the seized materials. It should be able to sell for a good price.

The money is then exchanged with them for some conventional weapons, including artillery and guns and ammunition. These things are much more useful than flashy armor.

Of course, I don't mean that these armors are flashy and useless. I just don't think these armors work as they should in your hands. At least at this stage.

Because you should still focus on developing infantry power. Your soldiers were born here and adapted to everything the desert has to offer. This is your own advantage, you should try your best to avoid weaknesses. " Lin Rui replied.

"Mr. Rick, do you mean that we can only deal with these captured armors at a low price?" An officer said regretfully.

"It's really a pity, but at the moment, this is the best way." Lin Rui shook his head, "If you don't have a suitable candidate, I can find someone to do this business for you.

After all, it is a captured second-hand armor, and it may not be a very good price for you, but it will definitely not make you suffer too much. "
