Well, that was fast. Not really sure what message the image creator was going for. Shoot the gays? Equality through violence? Who the gently caress knows, it's late and I'm tired.

What he said. You can't see poo poo when you're buttoned up, and you're definitely not going to see a guy sneaking up below the limits of the sights. Drive might catch it if it's at a certain angle Wasabi the J posted:I wonder what a defensive "blind shot" would do if you saw that guy and shot a round in his direction. Dead or severely hosed up from burning propellant and overpressure. You really, really don't want to be that close to the gun tube when it fires. T-72 firing for example:  Guy would be toast.

Arishtat posted:The commander's hatch is on the far side of the turret in the video and neither the commander's telescopic sight (if he even had one) nor his vision blocks (periscopes) would have allowed him to see the guy approaching the tank. As for how it exploded I'd guess that the fighter got incredibly lucky and caught the tank in the middle of the reloading cycle with the breech open or not fully locked with an incendiary grenade. That doesn't really make sense to me, but the Soviets had different ideas about crew safety than the US or NATO tank designers did. Doesn't matter for either platform, breech closed or not. A grenade going down the tube would detonate the propellant and ruin the crew's day. Only difference is the Abrams having blowout panels to offset round cookoff, and that wouldn't factor in if the explosion hit the crew compartment before round storage. Madurai posted:Case in point: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jd3H05HgXLg And drat I'm glad we don't have an autoloader, poo poo is claustrophobic enough as it is.

Phanatic posted:There's more fill in the 120mm shell than there is in the grenade, even if the grenade blast does cook off the loaded round (which I think is unlikely), okay, your loaded round just went off. The chamber pressure's not going to be significantly higher than the round just firing normally. Yeah, the grenade detonates, but it's relatively unconfined, the breech block has to deal with pressures higher than that every time it fires. If the grenade managed to set off the explosive fill in a loaded HEAT round, okay, bad news, but that's shock-insensitive stuff otherwise you'd be crossing your fingers every time you fired it. You're no fun.

Repost from TFR of the worst BMD driver ever. Some dumbass not realizing that braking a tracked vehicle is a bit different from braking a wheeled vehicle. Or the driver just really, really hated the TC.
