(this clip is originally from the PC game M1A2 tank platoon 2 (still the best tank game ever made )

did love the 'strong 19 year old is more intelligent than an autoloader' line, its debatable with some 19 year olds I know

MMm.....watching that M1A2 rotate was hot!



There's a bradley test vehicle just up the hill from me, and untill recently there was only a few m113s in the area... don't know what the did with them though.

(this one is just cool, especially the bit with the hi speed camera shot of the shell in flight ). Funny thing is though, the M1 main gun isnt rifled and yet the shell is clearly spinning.....

 

[Rabidchild]

I'd hazard a guess it's the fins giving it the spin. What I want to know is what the small explosion on the shell was while it was in flight. Great vid, thanks.

shows a few A1's that have been hit and contrary to american propaganda are destructable. also mentions the T-80 is designed to be hit from above in modern warfare whaile the M1A1 has lighter armour for such hits. but like all things could just be propaganda as much as america saying the M1A1 hasnt been destroyed yet by another tank (for wich my friend in the british army would argue about seeing it happen first hand)

and for fun of the battle feild i like this

my fave is this T-72 vid
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4_0aFRCcI0
crew make a hash at the begining of gettin in the tank, then a bit later fail to hit the targets. Classs (think it may be my british humour that warms me to this one the most)
