WNU is the biggest vatnik.

Clear the helicopters and lessen the ATGM threat and the M!s will have a bigger impact.

Ukrainians counterbattery is having an effect at making the M1s more effective.

Mines are a problem for any tank. I have seen at least one video of an armored mine layer being blown up. How many of those are there. The Ukrainians probably have an idea. With Ukrainians increased reach laying new minefields could be problematic.

There is one strategy that Biden's puppet masters could be using and it is not a callous one. It is often bandied about and very sublime.

Any bets on how long they will survive? The Russian have chewed up every NATO tank used against them.

every?

You know what they say about words like every and all in test taking.

What the Hell, Russian trolls are going to troll.


"An abandoned Russian tank south of Robotyne is being destroyed by a drone dropping a grenade into the open hatch."

Minor but it would be interesting to know of how quickly tanks on either side are destroyed once they are a mobility kill. Analysis would have to be Bayesian of course.

Is taking a second to slap a hatch worth the risk. I think everyone who has voted has voted "HELL NO!."

Here is a sure bet, those m1s will burn just as well as any other tank. What are ukies getting? 30? 18? It does not matter. 10 get burned, 10 get damaged and 5 get to be hanger queens. The other 5? Disappear or put on other duties like guarding the presidential palace

You trolls are so pathetic. Too bad you were not in America. You would be perfect fit for the Democrat Party.

I heard one was going to park right behind you and stick its muzzle up your ass. Of course it would be Biblical, when it happens. It will rain shit for 40 days and 30 nights.

Say what you want and blather all you want. These tanks will still burn. That is the inevitable out come of any war. Things get destroyed and so will these.

Lol, about half a dozen Leo's, rest recovered and repaired in poland and Germany

fazman said...

Yep but they will take 100 T72/ T64/ T80 with them , and more importantly the crews will survive

Sure, it will go just as you plan faz. All will survive without a scratch. No blindness, burns and PTSD. You never been in the army, have you. get in a tank sometime and get hit, even if the round bounces off, It is not a pleasant experience, to say the least.

Yes, yes good troll, we know all about spalling.

Leo's can be repaired. T-72s look like Roman candles when they get hit.

dey git mad, blow their tops

Yes, yes spalling is the word the new Angrish learner was searching for

the tanks burn and spalling is only half of it. All the wiring and electronics are going to burn up and that gets extremely hot, Intensely Hot......Therefore you now have issues with structural integrity of the engine , transmission and firing system.

And depending on the amount of structural integrity issues you have , if you send it back out there without a full overhaul , you will have a machine prone to further damage and mechanical break down.

Think about it skods. You are not thinking. This is not simple like changing a spare tire.

So hot all the copper wiring burns and the engine/transmission fluids boil.

Been to firefighting school 3 times. Also know about electrical conduit specs. It seems as you don't. I also know how to put track on tracked vehicles.

Also putting on a tire can be life threatening. You do not seem to know that either.

WTF do you know?
