No, it's T-35 first Soviet Heavy tank.Originally posted by ThePlagueRat
Yeah, I guess it's a WW2 light battletank. They had many funny designs back then, and WW2 antitank vehicles could be similar to certain tanks in design. Modern tanks normally uses one huge barrel whose range matters...Comment

Nice site BeBro, I found this awesome russian song there...
Code:The tanks were rattling like a thunder The soldiers went to final fight And here they carried young commander With head all broken outright
Soladty shli v poslednii boi,
A molodogo komandira,
Nesli s probitoi golovoi...
Old, good, WW2 song...
It's one of my favorite songs. It's very good translation, but original Russian version is 1000 times better of course.
I like to sing it, when I'm drunk
It's sad, yes... but at the same time it's fast song.
Sad melody I guess...
They are good at making sad songs, the russians.
Btw, I can find you a Russian version if you wish.Comment

I guess main gun of T-95 is somehow different from M-60A2.Originally posted by Joseph
For Serb. The US had a 152 mm tank 30 years ago and did not like it. It was the M-60A2. It saw service in Vietnam.
Are you absolutely sure that it weren't cheap, export modifications of T-72?There was a T-80 in the vote. In Gulf 1, the Marines with their M-60A3 met the Iraqi Republican Guard T-80s and destroyed all of them without a single loss.Comment

A human could load the gun within 4 seconds in the middle of fire fight while tank is moving at top speed through rough terrain?
Yeah, right and I have a bridge to sell.
1) I'm not a tankist but my buddy was. And he believes that tank ammunition is pretty heavy stuff and that humans are affected by such thing as tiredness.
2) Tanks do not shots non-stop as machine guns, yet. You need some time to chose target and rotate the turret. So, speed of modern autoloaders is more than enough, but it helps to:
a) reduce number of crew members -> space, wich is one of the critical factors for tanks.
b) exclude such factors as tiredness/mistakes/injury/death of loader.
Seriously speaking, do you really believe that manual loading is better concept than autoloading?Comment

Btw, the presence of autoloader doesn't mean that tank's gun can't be loaded manually. It's possible to load it manually, but who needs it when automatic can handle this?Comment
