      @@panicc580 Thank you for repeating myths.
      WHY do Russian MBTs have the ammo carousel low in the tank at the bottom of the turret? Because that is the SAFEST place to put it. US WW2 Sherman's became the least likely tanks to burn once the ammunition was moved to the bottom of the turret. Why is this? Because the bottom of the turret is the most heavily protected part of the tank and the least likely part to be hit. The carousel is where it is for their interpretation of improving crew surviveability.
      Now, WHY do Russian MBTs have such a habit of their ammo brewing up? Because the carousel only holds 22 rounds. Where do the other 18 rounds go? Yup. Up in the turret, the part of the tank most likely to be hit. It's stuffed everywhere they can find space. Rarely is it the carousel that gets hit and cooks off. It's the ammunition carried up in the turret that gets hit. When crews go into battle with ONLY the 22 rounds in the carousel, as they did after sustaining heavy losses in Chechnya, the tanks rarely suffered ammunition fires. Usually only after getting hit by a HUGE IED.
      T-90 improves this by putting 10 rounds into a separate bustle, but 8 rounds are still carried in the turret. (Dumb) There is nothing preventing them from putting blow-out panels on the bottom and sealing the autoloader when it is not cycling. They've just determined that it's not worth the effort.
      WHY do western MBTs have blow out panels? Because they put the ammunition in a VERY vulnerable place, high in the turret. A place where it is VERY likely to be hit. Especially with top-attack munitions.
      There are no solutions, only tradeoffs.

    I was with the US Third Infantry Division in OIF1. To take out Sadaam's tanks, our M1 Abrams would fire sabot rounds and penetrate the berms concealing the enemy tanks. They would aim for the point where the turret rested on the chassis. This would ignite all of the rounds inside the turret. The explosion that resulted blew the turret 50 meters into the air, and landing about 100 meters away from the chassis. Of all the destroyed Iraqi tanks I saw, only three still had intact turrets.

      One of the main drawbacks of the carousel-style autoloaders that Russian tanks employ, rather than the cassette-style on something like the Leclerc or K2 - until the T-90M, they haven't really been able to provide them with any sort of reliable protection, even against spalling and fragments.
      I would suggest and I've been told this by many gunners and TC's, you'd aim for the place where the turret meets the hull because it's the centre of mass of the vehicle. You could hit a T-72 just about anywhere on the hull and blow off that turret, that autoloader is like a powder keg waiting to go off! No need for a precise hit.

      From the photos and videos, both the slat canopy and ERA are readily defeated by current ATGMs. The canopies are so ineffective I have to wonder if they weren't just a failed attempt to confuse vision systems.
      On video, the tanks almost instantly brew up. After action pictures show most turrets popped off, suggesting they also had a very quick cascade rather than a slow cook-off. Survivability chances must be grim.

It's all for show obviously....in reality, every piece of stowage inside and outside is going to total f**king shit! There would be kit flying everywhere! Your radios, ammo, personal weapons, rations, tool kit and alsorts would be everywhere! Plus the entire crew would in reality, probably would be unconcious! I know this from driving a Chieftain across country at night and my commander missed seeing what was refered to after as 'Pritches VTOL' bump lmfao! I was thrown out of the cab, nearly crunched by the gun monster, headsets came off and I was hanging on to the splash plate for grim life! My commander, gunner and loader were out for the count. I managed to pull myself back into the cab and bring the tank to a stop, hit the drivers safety switch to disable the gun kit before dragging myself semi-concious upstairs to check on the turret crew. I still have pics somewhere of my loader holding his seat which had been 'eaten' by the gun monster. That stuff belongs on jeremy clarkson not the battlefield lol! Having had the luck to play with the M1 and Leopard 2....crew skills are a massive point! The Turkish Leo's and to an extent M1 losses were due to loaders short cutting drills. 2 British RTR gunnery instructors died in Wales because they short cutted drills (RIP brothers, Fear Naught!) I did stupid things as a loader back in the day, yeah, fuck it....I'll have a few bag charges stacked on the turret floor, it's only ranges....never in war though. M1 and Leo2 don't commit to the equal triangle of a tank. Fire power, armour and manoeuvrability. They sacrifice the armour bit. That's probably why no CR1 or CR2 have never been knocked out by enemy fire. I think that actually applies to Chieftain too! The Kuwaties ran over the border because they ran out of ammo lol!

      In all my years of loving the Abrams, Ive come across maybe 4 comments who say the Abrams is good, and maybe 1 person saying “omg it’s the best in the world!!!!”
      And Ive yet to find any true reason why it’s hated, and when I read any sort of arguement on it being easy to kill they bring up the export models-
      Models made with only steel no DU or composites to be found on it, and say “see??? Abrams IS bad you’re just a faNboY the T-55 is a better tank”

    The T-90 doesnt have blowout panels. No Russian T series haven them. They were never put into mass production on their fielded tanks, because it was determined to be too expensive to retrofit.
    The T90M has a storage rack behind the turret with blowout panels for extra ammunition on the outside of the tank, that is not the same thing as blow out panels in the tank itself to protect the crew.
    The crew is still sitting on a powder keg.

      K2 is one of the best tanks out there today, arguably THE best. It’s basically a Leopard 2A7 but ten tonnes lighter. Good engine, really good sensors and optics, best tank gun on the market today, and supposedly DAMN good armor for its weight class!
      One of the main reasons Poland will have chosen it is the autoloader, which is something most of their army is used to using having come from old Soviet autoloading tanks. K2’s is MUCH better - faster, better protected and more reliable - and it means they don’t suddenly have to recruit and train a bunch of tank loaders

    Another amusing failure of its active protection system that’s been discovered: it’s apparently only operating when the tank is running. Which is fine.. unless your tank column is shut down to preserve fuel as you sit stationary on a road.
    And even when it’s functioning, the trick is to fire your missile over the tank then drop the crosshairs on the target at the last moment before the protection system can react.

    • @user-tv7fg7wt2d
      @user-tv7fg7wt2d 9 месяцев назад +1

      Pretty sure the only T-72BU part that the T-90A has is its turret. T-72BU had a different hull and gun (or maybe that was Obj. 187. People like to interchange their designations). As far as I know, T-72BU is more close to T-90 Obr. 1992, which (Obr. 1992) was basically a T-72B with T-80UK subsystems. Just minus the 2A66, which required ammunition that was exclusively just for 2A66.
      I suppose Obr. 1992, and all the other improved T-72 projects was made because the military was not very happy with the complex nature of T-64, and complex and resource needy nature of T-80. But their subsystems were were quite good. So they wanted to mix things up with the relatively simple and not-so-resource-needy nature of the T-72B chassis.
      Why it was named to T-90, I don't think anyone has a definitive reason as to why. Could be for economic reasons or morale/propaganda reasons or because there were too many letters or because it was a mix of 2 different tanks or because it was a better T-72 (Or a mixture of the aforementioned reasons because these kinds of things are rarely smooth, clean cut, and simple as one thing). A T-72 that wasn't a step - or at least complete step - behind the T-80. At least in regards to subsystems (i.e. FCS). T-72s, to this day, are still the economic tank. The step-behind version of the best that the military has. Maybe they just wanted to keep that tradition. But that's just my pure speculation.
      T-90s in their entire life have always been the better T-72. A tank for the "elites". It would be incorrect to say that T-90 is the exact same as T-72, but it would also be incorrect to say that T-90 is completely different from T-72.
