The funny reason why our country is armed with shotguns.
Our country's infantry has three ** positions on the battlefield: suppression, self-defense, and elimination. For example, machine guns, mines, and sniper rifles are used for suppression; And mortars, automatic grenade launchers, rocket launchers, etc., are used to eliminate. And in terms of self-defense, it's an assault rifle.
China's new generation of infantry light ** series, including a series of guns, such as 58mm light machine guns, standard assault rifles, high-precision rifles, short assault rifles, underwater assault rifles, underwater pistols, high-precision sniper rifles and sniper grenade launchers. But unlike the past, the first time we started equipping shotguns was 184mm QBS09 shotgun. This gun is gas-conductive and automatic, which is better able to function in urban combat.
The gun was equipped with a matching 184 mm anti-personnel shotguns, but due to the use of internationally accepted shotgun calibers, it can also fire a variety of civilian hunting shells. In urban combat, the terrain is complex, the shooting range is limited, and many times melee combat is required. It is difficult for ordinary light ** to give full play to the advantage of range, but the shotgun can give full play to the advantages of fierce firepower, wide range, and suitable for close combat.
Our QBS09 Formula 18The 4mm shotgun has a clear advantage in urban street fighting, only needs to be roughly aimed, the shooting time is short, the aiming time is fast, the fire density is high, and the probability of hitting the first shot is high. It is especially suitable for indoor combat, street combat and close search missions, and can clear a section of street or house with two or three shots in a row. In addition, the barrage formed when fired at close range is also a great deterrent. After all, close wins and losses depend on who has more firepower spread and who can start the hit, so shotguns have an advantage.
And for those enemies who try to escape by car, the armor-piercing bullet of the shotgun is more powerful than ordinary rifles and submachine guns, capable of quickly wrecking the car. At the same time, the gun is also equipped with armor-piercing, arson, signal and narcotic shells and can perform a wide range of special operations missions. What's even more exaggerated is that the shotgun can even be used to fire flares and flares, which greatly improves the flexibility and all-round ability of special forces in individual combat. In addition, the shotgun has a huge gunfire and has a strong deterrent effect, which can make the enemy psychologically collapse and dare not act.
In short, we started equipping shotguns because in urban combat, shotguns are more advantageous, better able to adapt to melee environments, play to their firepower advantage, and improve the self-defense ability of infantry. This is of great significance for improving the overall combat effectiveness of our infantry.
