  1. Merkava 4 without skirts. AFAIK, a turret with single hatch indicates early model of Merkava 4. Roof armor is more one of thickest amongst modern MBTs. How you can use Merk rear ammorack:
  2. So, Object 490 armor scheme made me to thing - does Merks have any serious armor between engine and crew compartment?
  3. 2006, Lebanon "missile war". Turret armor plates are also visible.
  4. I post it here to lure colli. He will appear and scream something like 'fucking NERA EVERYWHERE!" So does anybody here (just maybe.. mr.Marsh..) know what those "ears" are for?
  5. I dodge a copyright claims by being in Russia!
  6. IIRC South Korean company created a cap/fuse for 155 artillery shells, it have small fins that are controlled by small chip. It allows to bring hit error to less than 50 meters on any distance of artillery fire.
  7. Azov regiment engineering group projects. "Azovets" HAPC A tank ( ) and mortar vehicle.
  8. But they are! They could be mounted almost anywhere and used in direct fire, instead of 30 mm automatic grenade launchers or RPGs
  9. I will just copy my post from T110 Also, video shows one thing (2nd tank) - turret busked with ammo make hull-down to be much less effective. Small rotation of turret reveal this part of turret for any fire, which is what Ansar Allakh ATGM operator managed to exploit (or was lucky to exploit). Basically, turret design compromise hull down tactics, allowing even for ancient ATGMs like Fagot (1970) and Konkurs (1974) to knock out of battle a pretty modern MBTs like M1A2SA. Fagot launcher can use Konkurs missiles, but both missiles are claimed to have 400-500 mm penetration. PG-29VR is over 700 mm, Kornet (old) - 1100, new version is up to 1300-1500 mm. Trajectory was something like this, maybe a bit closer to turret rear.
  10. Those are M1A2SA Abrams tanks, export version, generally same as US M1A2, but without Holy DU/ceramics in frontal armor.
