| Summary: | The article is devoted to the development of anti-tank and tank artillery in the USSR,
Belgium, Britain, Germany, Czechoslovakia, Poland, France, Italy in the Interbellum.
This process is caused by the growth of the tank fleet of the armed forces, which
can significantly increase the pace of operations. In parallel, there is a qualitative
development of armored vehicles, which becomes more resistant to armor-piercing
bullets of a rifle caliber and shell fragments, more mobile, which complicates the
fight against regimental and division artillery, and makes the production of special
anti-tank guns necessary. At the same time, the qualitative growth of armored
vehicles requires adequate armament of a compact, rapid-fire ammunition with
a wide range of ammunition. Unfortunately, the study of this process is biased.
Journalists, politicians, researchers often disseminate allegations that in the USSR
there was a copying of foreign samples. An example of such approaches is the
distortion of the history of the development of Soviet anti-tank and tank guns of
the Interbellum. A comparison of the processes taking place in the USSR and abroad
allows us to refute the opinion of the fundamental importance of copying foreign
samples or using pre-revolutionary experience |
