Using it on tanksβ¦
Faced with Director Lu's solemn and earnest face, Lu Zhou finally knew why this old man was here.
In fact, research on electrical tanks was nothing novel.
"Dr. Porsche" had done similar research in the 1930s.
The VK4501P tank had a PorscheType101/1 air-cooled engine, where the power generated by the engine was stored in a battery, which was used to drive the two 275kW motors.
However, due to the limitation of technology back then, the electric tanks didn't provide a huge advantage on the battlefield. Only the "differential steering system" technology from the tank was retained.
With the continuous advancement of science and technology, the concept of electric tanks had been widely talked about in the military industry.
Lu Zhou speculated that Director Lu wasn't only asking about tanks.
