    Chieftain and chally have longitudinal engines, but no fuel stowed either side of them - that space is for the air cleaner and generator. Fuel stowage is all in the sponsons - because those run the entire length of chally, it gets an extra 150 gallons of it (~210 Vs ~360). AVDS-1790 normally has air cleaners outside the hull, of course, and no generator You are correct. A good example:

    OH GOD EVERYONE'S GETTING WEIRD FURSONAS

    What's the difference between isentropic and shock compression?

    Just like a universal carrier, only without any armour, less load capacity, has a useless front wheel (it's totally pointless - the handlebars connect to the tracks transmission with linkages for turns) and has 30 parts per track link.

    Why are wing station bent to begin with?

    Aren't they broadly the same under the plastic? G36 melts the trunnions under heavy fire, so it's definitely deserving of the melty title

    melty melty fish gun

    Aww, it's cute torpedo bulges?

    On a semi-related topic, was racial segregation enforced by law or just by business preference? By semi-related, I admit that US race relations is a topic I know nothing about so they could be completely unrelated for all I know

    Ooh, I like the reducing blade stall idea. I wonder if it would actually work?

    Make sure you type the d before you hit enter, otherwise you end up playing world of tanks

    That turret front hit we see in the first couple of pictures must have at least jammed the traverse - combine that with the damage to tracks preventing the tank pivoting, and there's not much it can do anymore

    Blank rounds though

    kebab is most likely from /k/

    They have T-15, that should be close enough That's much too fast, efficiency drops at high velocities. You'd just have a 1m+ rod at normal speed.

    They're mostly artillery kills, AIUI

    Someone who runs the "Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy, Inc.", whatever that is, asked a few years ago and it's taken till now to get through the courts

    http://irmep.org/cfp/DoD/071987_CTAIIANN.pdf Here's a recently declassified report from 1987 into the israeli nuke program, do what you want with it

    Oh yeah, I forgot we had a nuke section. I'll find a better home for the post

    Russians are masters of maskirovka! I suspect there should be room for a dismount or two in T-15, due to the layout - it's ideal for a rear hatch. The spaced armour on the front reminds me of ERA mounts on russian turrets, and the angle of the lamppost reminds me of russian dashcam videos

    Or paste into notepad

    It looks like a commanders sight to me, but it's on the wrong side and he already has one. Maybe a laser dazzler?

    This has been bugging me - if it's true, then it seems reasonable to assume the ground pressure is no greater than that of T-90. And since the tracks are the same width, then we can set an upper limit on the weight using only the relative increase in track length. With this image on my screen the T-72 track on the ground is 11cm long, and the T-14 track is 13cm long, so the vehicle has a maximum weight of about 18% more than T-90 - or about 55 tonnes, going by the T-90S weight from uralvagonzavod. So about the same as a Mk5 chieftain.

    Sounds like an anti wank device to me
