its not really that hard to aim a tank gun at a stationary target
@@hbaggg ah yes, speaking from your 3000 hours on war thunder?
tank sights are usually offset above and to the right or left of the gun. theres like a 30 cm difference between where the gunner's sight is looking and where the barrel is pointing at all times

@@wingzero7X No, since he replied a Negative to an "attack the D point"
We need a "How many bodies does it take to stop a 152mm?" video now.
The answer is probably "enough "
You're probably talking about tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands. Humans are very squishy and that kind of shell carries a tremendous amount of energy. It was designed to penetrate something millions of times harder than human bits. If anything constantly slamming into bodies would make the shell veer off the path a little, and when it runs out of enough penetrating power the deviation will drastically increase.
But..in real life no gunner would use 152mm to shoot at infantry directly😂.
@Alibane Gredon And how much cost ballistic gel model? )
Yes
This is a good illustration of how and why you have soldiers who end up listed as missing in action. Or buried as UNKNOWN.
It is pretty rare that someone would be hit by a tank projectile like this though, right?
@@domgo349 If you were inside another tank that got shot at, not really, depends on the armor though and how much of the projectile actually gets inside. Other than that though, yes, it would be very wasteful to shoot a person with a tank round, even with HE you just aim in the general direction, not on the target themselves. Also the reason why machine guns exist on tanks.
Jep... With all the arty fired in Ukraine this stuff probably happens more than we think 😢
There will be some direct or almost direct hits...
@@Siiseli2 I've heard that some Russian tanks were packing the tank equivalent of shotgun rounds.
A volunteer squad got caught by one and the lone survivor immeadiately retired then after the incident. Nasty stuff.
@@TheNapster153 rounds like that have been around since Vietnam, possibly even earlier. They called them beehive rounds, the Vietnamese were terrified of them.
My grandfather had a shell casing like the one at 6:00. I was always amazed at the sheer size and weight of it, and it was entirely casing. Seeing that hit someone would be scarier than if it hit something beside you... assuming you were able to put together what happened picking your buddies brains out of your hair.
And that's only a 76 mm one, today we have 120 mm on our MBT's.
Of course, in a real war a tank would probably be shooting HE at infantry, rather than an inert solid shot projectile. So, there's a good chance if it hits your buddy next to you, you will be rapidly departing this world as well
As a person who loves guns and artillery very much, Seeing those realistic dummies turn into meat just makes me feel uncomfortable, but yet so brutal.
Remember, switching to your side tank is faster than reloading
"Der her"
switching to your .50 cal is faster than reloading another 120mm
😂
"Ja"
Better for up close!
The obvious follow-up question would seem to be "how many humans can a round from a tank go through before it stops being lethal?"
I don't think they have that kind of budget 😂
All of them.
Yes
Sounds like the most average demolition ranch video😂
Have you tried a "beehive"/flechette artillery round on one of your "Smiling George" ballistic torsos? That would be interesting to see as well! Keep up the fire!

I would love to see a collaboration between you guys and the slowmo guys. I think it would be really cool to not only see the projectile heading down range and hitting the dummy but get to see the shockwave and the detail you can see at 100,000 fps.

@@Kasumi_TashiThe likelihood of your head being intact after being blasted by a tank round, point blank, is probably very low.
I actually met a guy who survived having been shot with a T-72 tank cannon. It happened in the Hungarian army, during a target practice. He was sent to plant a signal flag in the target zone. As he did, he felt something violently yanking his jacket. He looked down, and found a good part of his jacket missing. An armor piercing projectile went just under his arm as he reached out to plant the flag, barely touching his body. A tank crew was very, very badly disciplined on that day.
jeez man im glad hes okay, i wonder what happened to the tank crew...
holy fucking shit
hes lucky he was shot with an apfsds i assume. Because the round itself is thin as fuck

Hehe, yeah, that got me good too!

My grandfather was a battery commander during Vietnam. They were at risk of being overrun by an enemy battalion, so he ordered their howitzers to be direct laid and had the fuses removed from their airburst munitions. They completely annihilated the enemy force and he was awarded a silver star. Crazy shit.
EDIT: You can read about it in “Human Impact of Technological Innovation on the Battlefield” 15 MAR 1985. I based my telling off how my grandfather told me, but to quote the paper: “Bliss recalls suggesting the use of ‘Killer Senior’ with ICM rounds. The minimum time fuze setting of two seconds created an air burst at 1,000 meters. Eleven rounds were fired, and almost immediately, North Vietnamese firing ceased.”
Jesus, that must've been terrifying for the enemy, I assume that with the fuses removed the shells were basically just solid shot?
@@amhuman5138 Nope the shells explode on contact not on a certain distance
@@amhuman5138 I'm assuming slap-chop'd (replace the blades with shrapnel) tango charlie is the most accurate description of what occurred in the jungle since the fuses are removed, and they would detonate on contact with any solid mass (i.e., enemy combatants, trees, and the ground).
Savage. And damn American.
When my grandpa walks past a tree I can see it in his eyes that he flashing back it’s emotional 😢
My grandpa was part of a howitzer crew, one of the only stories he told me was about direct firing the 155 mm at a VC that was launching mortars at them. They had to get clearance to do so, as he told me the VC was 800 yards away and the HE shell had a 400 yard blast radius. When they sent iut a recon team afterwards, all that was recoverd was a shin bone.
Yeah, HE doesn't have to score a direct hit, close definitely counts with explosives
155mm HE probably has around 10kg of tnt so...
Edit ; a M67 Hand grenade have 180gr of tnt inside
Wow
I think you mean 40 yards.
@@garmancathotmailcom The official "Likely kill radius" of a 155mm artillery shell is 50-150 meter radius, depending on type used, further is "Likely injury radius" with a danger zone of about 250 meters where you still have several mm sized shrapnel flying around, causing potential casualties for targets unfortunate enough to be out in the open.
you can fire tank shot for $1200 but you need $1200 for just calling an ambulance.
I knew a WW2 veteran, long ago, that fought in Normandy. His platoon was charging an 88mm anti-tank gun when it fired from about 100 yards away. The guy in front of him was hit dead center, from the waist up was gone, only his hips and legs were left, they moved forward a few steps and fell down. He had nightmares for years later about that.
The 88s had warning lables on them, that you should not stand in front of them while fireing. Unfortunately they were written in German.
Damn! Straight up Mortal Kombat fatality irl
That's eerie as fuck
Fucking hell… that’s nightmare shit
Years? How did that create a permanent mental scar that his children inherited

this has actually already happened. During the battle of 73 Easting towards the end of a battle an Iraqi soldier stood up pointing an RPG at an Abrams. The gunner, who was excited to see a guy pointing an RPG at him didn't wait for permission and just pulled the trigger, putting a 120mm shell through the guy's chest. According to the commander, "his body was blown away like a leaf".
Sounds perfect for home defense. One shot, one kill.

fun fact with Soviet Onion: the D25 152mm Howizer is a Soviet era Anti-ship gun that was used on a few Russian Battleships as a Secondary Gun, and a little bit after 1941 and 1942 when the Tiger 1's and Panthers were coming around the Soviets used that gun to one tap said German Cats from like 1.5km- 2kms away with perfect hits, it was so good at killing the Heavy German Cats that the germans would Nickname the ISU-152 and the SU-152 "Cat Killers" or "Beast Hunters" due to the fact that the Soviet made those tanks to hunt and destroy the Massive Cats.

He explained going over a knoll he saw a tank, dodged to the side and the round passed very near him damaging his arm. I think the word he used was jellified.

Well i think it depends on what type of projectile the tank is shooting. US tanks mostly use the M829A1 kinetic penetrator. And moving at a muzzle velocity of 1575 feet per second, the uranium depleted projectile would just pass through a person leaving an entry and exit wound that'll be the same diameter as the projectile
You might want to check your facts. A kinetic energy round goes much faster than 1575 ft/s.

They would sometimes load flechettes in the guns and vaporise the NKs by the hundreds. It was so crazy he still didnt know if he should laugh or cry, but he was glad to make it back.
I didn't know artillary could fire fletchettes ....Greusom !!
The US's most illegal war.
Artillery got a huge arsenel of shell types to use.
He’s one with nature now
The moment of impact is both beautiful and terrifying
No it wasn’t
Actually it looks quite painless.
