Lub ntsiab sib ntaus sib tua tank M60
M60A3 yog qhov kawg ntawm cov khoom tsim ua ntej qhov kev taw qhia ntawm M1 Abrams lub ntsiab sib ntaus sib tua tank tam sim no siv. Lub M60A3 muaj lub laser rangefinder thiab lub tshuab hluav taws xob digital tswj.
Thaum Lub Ib Hlis 14, 1957, Pawg Neeg Saib Xyuas Kev Sib Koom Tes Sib Koom Tes, ua haujlwm hauv XNUMXs hauv Asmeskas Tub Rog, tau pom zoo tias kev txhim kho ntxiv ntawm cov tso tsheb hlau luam rov qab xav dua. Ib hlis tom qab, tus Thawj Tub Ceev Xwm ntawm Teb Chaws Asmeskas Tub Rog, General Maxwell D. Taylor, tau tsim Pab Pawg Tshwj Xeeb rau Cov Tub Rog Yav Tom Ntej lossis Cov Tsheb Sib Tw Zoo Li - ARCOVE, i.e. ib pab pawg tshwj xeeb rau arming lub tank yav tom ntej lossis ib lub tsheb sib tw zoo sib xws.
Nyob rau lub Tsib Hlis 1957, pawg ARCOVE tau pom zoo kom muaj lub tsheb ciav hlau nrog cov cuaj luaj coj mus rau tom qab xyoo 1965, thiab kev ua haujlwm ntawm cov phom loj tau txwv. Nyob rau tib lub sijhawm, hom tshiab ntawm lub taub hau rau cov cuaj luaj tau tsim, ua haujlwm ntawm cov tso tsheb hlau luam lawv tus kheej kuj yuav tsum tau tsom mus rau kev tsim kom muaj kev tswj xyuas hluav taws ntau dua uas muaj peev xwm ua haujlwm nruab hnub thiab hmo ntuj, ntawm kev tiv thaiv cov tsheb armored thiab cov neeg coob kev nyab xeeb.
Ib qho kev sim ua kom muaj zog ntawm M48 Patton yog siv ntau hom phom mounted hauv cov turrets hloov. Daim duab qhia txog T54E2, ua rau ntawm lub chassis ntawm M48 tank, tab sis armed nrog American 140-mm phom T3E105, uas, txawm li cas los xij, tsis mus rau hauv kev tsim khoom.
Thaum Lub Yim Hli 1957, General Maxwell D. Taylor tau pom zoo ib txoj haujlwm los tsim cov tso tsheb hlau luam tshiab uas yuav ua raws li ARCOVE cov lus pom zoo. Txog rau xyoo 1965, peb chav kawm ntawm cov tso tsheb hlau luam yuav tsum tau khaws cia (nrog 76 hli, 90 hli thiab 120 hli riam phom, piv txwv li lub teeb, nruab nrab thiab hnyav), tab sis tom qab xyoo 1965 lub tsheb sib zog rau cov tub rog dav hlau yuav tsum tau ua tub rog nrog MBT nkaus xwb. Lub tank sib ntaus sib tua tseem ceeb yuav tsum tau siv ob qho tib si los txhawb lub cev muaj zog infantry thiab rau kev ua haujlwm hauv kev ua haujlwm tob ntawm pawg yeeb ncuab sib ntaus sib tua, nrog rau ib feem ntawm cov chaw tshawb nrhiav. Yog li nws yuav tsum tau ua ke cov yam ntxwv ntawm lub tank nruab nrab (kev ua haujlwm ua haujlwm) thiab lub tank hnyav (kev txhawb nqa tub rog), thiab lub tank lub teeb (kev tshawb nrhiav thiab kev soj ntsuam kev ua haujlwm) yuav tsum mus rau hauv keeb kwm, raug hloov hauv lub luag haujlwm no los ntawm cov lub ntsiab sib ntaus sib tua tank, uas yog ib qho nruab nrab ntawm cov tsheb nruab nrab thiab hnyav. Nyob rau tib lub sijhawm, nws tau xav tias cov tso tsheb hlau luam tshiab los ntawm qhov pib yuav tau nruab nrog lub tshuab hluav taws xob.
Nyob rau hauv lawv cov kev tshawb fawb, pawg ARCOVE tau txaus siab rau kev txhim kho ntawm Soviet armored tsheb. Nws tau taw qhia tias Eastern bloc yuav tsis tsuas yog muaj txiaj ntsig zoo ntawm cov tub rog ntawm NATO lub teb chaws, tab sis kuj muaj txiaj ntsig zoo hauv thaj tsam ntawm riam phom armored. Txhawm rau tshem tawm qhov kev hem thawj no, nws tau xav tias 80 feem pua. qhov tshwm sim ntawm kev ntaus lub hom phiaj nrog thawj ntaus, ntawm kev sib ntaus sib tua nyob deb ntawm cov tso tsheb hlau luam. Ntau yam kev xaiv rau arming tso tsheb hlau luam tau txiav txim siab, nyob rau hauv ib lub sij hawm nws txawm pom zoo kom arm tanks nrog anti-tank coj missiles es tsis txhob ntawm ib tug classic phom. Qhov tseeb, cov tub rog Asmeskas tau mus rau txoj hauv kev no nrog kev tsim Ford MGM-51 Shillelagh anti-tank system, uas yuav tham txog ntau yam ntxiv tom qab. Tsis tas li ntawd, kev saib xyuas tau kos rau qhov muaj peev xwm ntawm kev tsim lub tshuab hluav taws xob smoothbore nrog lub siab muzzle tshaj tawm, stabilized nyob rau sab.
Txawm li cas los xij, qhov kev pom zoo tseem ceeb tshaj plaws yog tso tseg kev faib cov tank rau hauv cov chav kawm. Tag nrho cov kev ua haujlwm ntawm lub tank nyob rau hauv armored thiab mechanized rog yuav tsum tau ua los ntawm ib hom ntawm lub tank, hu ua lub ntsiab sib ntaus sib tua tank, uas yuav muab cov firepower thiab armor tiv thaiv ntawm ib tug hnyav tank nrog rau kev mus los, maneuverability thiab maneuverability ntawm nruab nrab tank. Nws tau ntseeg tias qhov no ua tiav, uas tau pom los ntawm cov neeg Lavxias thaum tsim ib tsev neeg ntawm cov tso tsheb hlau luam T-54, T-55 thiab T-62. Hom thib ob ntawm lub tank, nrog kev siv tsawg heev, yog los ua lub teeb lub tank rau cov tub rog hauv huab cua thiab cov chaw tshawb nrhiav, uas yuav tsum tau yoog rau kev thauj huab cua thiab kev poob qis, ib feem ua qauv ntawm lub tswv yim tank. Lub Soviet tank PT-76, tab sis nws tsis yog npaj rau lub hom phiaj no, ua ib tug floating tank, tab sis muaj peev xwm tsaws ntawm huab cua. Qhov no yog li cas M551 Sheridan tau tsim, nrog 1662 ua.
Diesel cav
Cov tub rog Asmeskas txoj kev hloov pauv mus rau cov tshuab hluav taws xob tau qeeb thiab tau tsav los ntawm kev faib khoom thauj khoom, lossis tshwj xeeb tshaj yog cov kws tshaj lij cov khoom siv roj. Nyob rau lub Rau Hli 1956, kev tshawb fawb loj tau ua rau lub tshuab hluav taws xob sib xyaw ua ke raws li kev txo cov roj siv hauv kev sib ntaus sib tua, tab sis nws tsis yog txog rau thaum Lub Rau Hli 1958 uas Lub Tsev Haujlwm Saib Xyuas Tub Rog, ntawm US Army Fuel Policy Conference, tso cai siv cov diesel. roj nyob rau hauv US Army rov qab logistics. Interestingly, tsis muaj kev sib tham nyob rau hauv Teb Chaws Asmeskas hais txog cov flammability ntawm lub teeb roj (gasoline) thiab lub susceptibility ntawm tso tsheb hlau luam mus tua hluav taws yog ntaus. Kev soj ntsuam Asmeskas ntawm kev puas tsuaj rau lub tank hauv Ntiaj Teb Tsov Rog II tau pom tias los ntawm qhov pom ntawm lub tank ntes hluav taws lossis tawg tom qab ntaus, nws cov mos txwv thauj khoom yog qhov txaus ntshai, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog vim nws ua rau tawg thiab hluav taws ncaj qha rau hauv qhov sib ntaus sib tua. tshaj qab lub firewall.
Txoj kev loj hlob ntawm lub tank diesel cav rau US Army tau pib los ntawm US Ordnance Committee thaum Lub Ob Hlis 10, 1954, raws li qhov tseeb tias lub tshuab hluav taws xob tshiab yuav ua tau raws li qhov ua tau raws li kev tsim ntawm Continental AV-1790 roj av cav. .
Nco qab tias qhov kev sim AV-1790 lub cav yog cua txias V-twin roj av cav tsim los ntawm Continental Motors of Mobile, Alabama, hauv 40s. Kaum ob lub tog raj kheej hauv 90 ° V-kev npaj muaj tag nrho cov ntim ntawm 29,361 litres nrog tib lub bore thiab 146 hli stroke. Nws yog plaub-stroke, carbureted cav nrog compression piv ntawm 6,5, nrog tsis txaus supercharging, hnyav (nyob ntawm seb lub version) 1150-1200 kg. Nws ua tau 810 hp. ntawm 2800 rpm. Ib feem ntawm lub hwj chim tau noj los ntawm lub cav-tsav kiv cua muab yuam kom txias.
