"So, Americans did their best?" General Caripot asked.

"There is room for improvement. The effective range of this weapon is still a little closer. If it can reach 400 meters, we can even replace all the weapons of the entire infantry squad with carbines. Moreover, the round-head bullet used in this bullet may have a worse inch speed, and the lethality over 200 meters may be worse." Major General Carls whispered.

"Okay, go back and write a report, and I will give it to His Royal Highness directly." General Kariput said. In fact, there was no rank of general in the German army in the war, and the real marshal could not be easily granted. Therefore, in order to take care of those generals who had relatively low origins and had great contributions, but still did not reach the bar, they were given the rank of general.

For example, Kariput, who once fought with the British in the Boer War in 1898, specially granted him the rank of general, and this rank and marshal rank will not be given real titles in peace in the future. It can be said that if there is no war, then the real power of the marshal and general will not be increased! As the first batch of generals of the Bavarian Kingdom, Kariput's greatest power is that he can bypass all military organizations and directly report some things to Crown Prince Ruprecht, even if he retires in the future!

"This is a newly developed ammunition. Before, we found that in actual combat, the pistol can only be used as self-defense weapons. Its power is too small, and the rifle is too heavy and the firing rate is slow. So we decided to do it on the bullet and created such a carbine bullet. The export kinetic energy is twice that of a normal pistol bullet, but it is only one-third of the rifle. However, it is enough at normal distance." The Americans did not retain this rifle. Although the United States and Germany were suspicious of each other and even stumbling about each other, in the middle and low-level exchanges, especially in the army, the two sides were still very harmonious.

As for how this carbine is like? It must be a good individual self-defense weapon. As for the so-called shortcomings, it is the same as Major General Carls said. The range is slightly closer and the power is also smaller. It is definitely much worse than the stg44 that appeared in the 2nd Battle of the Germans in history. But this era is indeed a leading design! It is necessary to learn from it.

Compared with the Garland semi-automatic rifles, bar, m1 carbine and Browning machine guns brought out by the Americans, Americans do not attach much importance to submachine guns. In fact, this is understandable. The 1 carbine uses intermediate power bullets. Although it is far less than a rifle, it is much stronger than a pistol bullet. And now Americans have directly created carbines that can be fired continuously. So what is the purpose of a submachine gun that is 2 kilograms heavier than a carbine?

It’s not that Americans do not have submachine guns. Thomson submachine guns have appeared in history, but the price of this guy is a bit expensive, so except for the squad leader or some personnel who perform special tasks, they will not be equipped with Thomson. Moreover, the most commonly used American submachine gun in the 2nd World War was the m3 submachine gun, which is the so-called butter gun in the 2nd World War. The biggest advantage of this thing over Thomson is that it is cheap...

In addition to the Americans creating their own complete infantry weapon system, infantry support weapons almost followed the German Army, equipped with a large number of 60mm and 120mm mortars. As for the famous 107mm mortars in history, they have not yet come out.

To be honest, the weapons and equipment of the Americans still left a profound impact on the Germans. At least, after learning from the lessons of World War I, the light weapons produced by the Americans were still very good, and their comprehensive level was much better than the Allied system.

Of course, what impressed the Germans even more was the mechanization level of the US military! The Americans were equipped with too many trucks and various vehicles. According to General Kariput's words, the mechanization level and transportation capacity of the US Army in the Pacific War were much higher than that of ordinary Bavarian Legion. The Americans' strong national strength was not only very huge at this moment. So this was how the US Army was evaluated in the memoir of General Kariput.

"The strength of the US Army does not lie in the quality of the troops. In fact, the combat quality of the US Army is initially low-level. The command level is also average. It is far less powerful than the British and French people we met. Their strength lies in its huge scale, in various senses. The total amount of troops and the total amount of equipment. The United States' national strength is stronger than the current German Empire, and the population is the same. If one day we fight with them, then the first thing to consider in this war is not how to defeat the opponent tactically, but how to adjust domestic production and supplies strategically so that we will not be dragged to death. The United States will be a more terrifying enemy than the Allies. If there is such a day, the empire must do its best!"

In the following days, General Kariput also visited several weapons being developed by the US Army but not equipped in large quantities. Among them, the most profound influence on him were the rifled mortars and the American new light howitzers.

Mortars have become the best among grassroots infantry support weapons for their light weight, cheap price and super high firing rate. Even people within the German army have proposed to use mortars to undertake all fire support tasks at battalion level and below battalion level. However, at the same time, mortars also have shortcomings, and the biggest shortcoming is naturally the issue of shooting accuracy.

The easiest way to improve the accuracy of smoothbore artillery is naturally to add rifles. However, if the rifled artillery is to carry out muzzle loading, there is a problem that is, when loading, the ammunition belt at the tail of the shell must be aimed at the rifle of the cannon bore and then the state will be. This will naturally affect the rate of fire, and the biggest advantage of the mortar is lost...

The Americans proposed an improvement idea, which is very strange. In the mortar they experimented with, the diameter of the shell was slightly smaller than that of the cannon, and then the improvement was made on the belt. The belt was divided into two parts, one was iron below and one was copper above. In this way, when the cannon launching medicine was ignited, the impact force of the gunpowder would naturally impact the iron belt, but copper was easily deformed, so the copper belt could bite the rifle well, and the shell would then rotate along the rifle. In this way, the accuracy problem was not only solved, but also did not affect the rate of fire, and the mortar shell even saved the tail wing...
