261工程系列: 261, 262 和 261-3
The Object 261was developed around 1947 in the Kirov Plant (Factory No. 100) who were themost experienced with the Obj 260. This was because, along with the chassis,the M-50T engine as well as transmission would remain the same throughout thedevelopment. The engine, as already stated, was to remain the M-50T which wasdesigned for torpedo boats and originally derived from the ACh-30 aircraftengine and produced 1,050hp which had already been fitted into the IS-7.
261工程是1947年左右由最熟悉260工程的基洛夫工厂设计的。主要是因为无论是底盘、M-50T发动机还是传动系统都跟着项目一起用到老。FA动机还是用过去为鱼雷艇设计、来源于Ach-30航空发动机并且已经安装在-7上的M-50T,它能提供1050马力的动力。
No officialdesigns are readily available on the internet depicting the Obj 261-1, howeverthere is text referring to the Obj 261 as being as an enclosed, forwardfighting compartment. It’s unknown how it could have looked, but it’s safe toassume the casement would visually be similar to that of the Obj 261-3 or theObj 263. The more likely design would have been the former as development notesstate that the casement of the Obj 263 was redesigned.
网络上并没有公开的261-1工程的官方信息,但是有文件声称261工程是个不知道长什么样子的前置封闭战斗室的东西。不过可以说这车的观察窗长得很像261-3工程和263工程,更可能的情况是作为重新设计观察窗的263工程的原型车。
Text tells thatthe role in hostile engagements was not planned during its design. Due to thisthe fighting compartment was lightly armored with no value given, however thehull retained a considerable amount noted at 150 to 215mm on the hull front.The estimated weight was to be about 68 tons, the same weight as the IS-7 itself.This gave it a respectable power to weight of 15.44 hp/t. The designerscalculated that with the M-50T engine and the subsequent power to weight, a topspeed of 55km/h would have been achievable.
文件中提到这车设计的时候没有考虑到它在交战中的定位,这是因为它的战斗室没什么装甲【而且没有具体的装甲数值】然而车体正面装甲还是保留了150到215mm这一合理的数字。这车的战斗全重是跟-7差不多的68吨左右,设计者认为配合M-50T发动机的澎湃动力可以使它的单位功率达到15.44hp/t的可观数字,并且能跑到55km/h的急速。
For a heavy SPGit would have been well armored and quite mobile, the gun allowing it to engagetargets both directly and indirectly.
对于作为其重型自行火炮的角色而言,它的装甲和机动都堪称完美,而且它的主炮既可以直瞄射击也可以曲射打击敌方目标。
