@oOCrossroadsOo Dont get me wrong but the abrams is well armored all around but the front is the thickest and the left has to have thicker because of the ammo stored int he hull
@wowgamer14 Oh ok that makes sense. Anyway do you really think any of the MBTs the western countries have is superior to another ? I don't think so, and the question should not even be asked because we're allies anyway. The Abrams will never shoot any Frenchie tank... unless the guys inside are not French. :)
@oOCrossroadsOo I think some are focus on the different ways the countries operates,defensive or offensive. the abrams is more offensive then defensive, but yea they are generally equal.
@wowgamer14 : Yeah of course they fit the doctrine of the country using it. I don't know if the Leclerc is more offensive or defensive. But I may know one day, though. If my studies don't lead me anywhere I might join the army and more especially the armored cavalry. :)
@Roksonixx You can only hear the whining sound inside the turret, all your hear outside is the 1500HP turbine engine and exhaust, and yes it is very loud. The Abrams wasn't built for stealth, it's made for superior firepower. The real military isn't all special forces, we go in loud and strong.
@Mattizfatt The headsets are noise-cancelling which takes out the majority of the sound. It's still there a bit, but usually the coms break it up enough where you dont notice it as much.
@SMGJohn The new M829A3 APFSDS was designed specifically for dealing with T-90's without Kontakt-5 reactive armor and with ;) Don't think Abrams crews will have any trouble dealing with them :P
@SMGJohn How exactly are they no match for real tank warfare?... They were used twice against Iraq and excelled against Iraqi armor. What do you know of tank warfare? Have you studied it? Do you know what tactics to use against an opponent with more armor then you're side? Have you even read anything about tank warfare? Guess not....
@Khristophoros1001 LOL, you mean the M1A1 successfully repelled museum equipment? Congratulations. It's like saying T-90 facing a bunch of outdated M46 Pattons and killed them all and now T-90 is worlds best tanks because it killed Museum equipment. Sir you are a tool and a big inbreed imbecile
@SMGJohn The fact is that the Abrams have been used against tanks and the T-90 haven't.... Yes Iraq had old crap, but tank warfare isn't all about the tank. The Germans showed that during the Invasion of France and the USSR, they had more tanks and tanks that were more heavily armored then their German equivalent but the Germans defeated them because of great tactics and high maneuverability. The Americans used excellent tactics during the first Gulf war... Tanks isn't everything!
@Khristophoros1001 The Iraq tactics where poor in that time. Germans where known for their tactics but America is not a nation to relay on tactics. However America still uses caution and firepower tactics as their main war tactics
@SMGJohn They used Blitzkrieg tactics during the Iraq wars... Every historian and researcher can agree to that! Shock and Awe is the same as Heinz Guderian's Blitzkrieg tactics. The first Gulf war was a perfect campaign with huge success. With minimal losses for the coalition and huge casualties for the Iraqis. The Americans use superior weaponry together with good tactics. I can agree that the Iraqis weren't the biggest challenge.
@SMGJohn Usually the best idea... You learn from the best, all western nations has learned something from the Germans. There is no point in starting from scratch if you can learn from someone who has already perfected something. There is no shame in learning from the best!
@dieselscience The internet was mainly developed troughout Europe in cooperation with many nations specially Sweden which is the biggest contributer to the internet. All the other stuff was invented fairly in Europe. America has never really invented something in the first place
@SMGJohn I guess you never heard of Robert Goddard, DARPA and Bell Labs? OR were those all lies, too?especially since Werner von Braun admitted himself he got his ideas from pre-war American research. Run along little troll.
@dieselscience Rockets? What? Konstantin Tsiolkovsky was the first guy to even propose space travels and liquied fuel or whatever. So you failed at rocket conversation, now while you seems to still have to learn what troll means you just made a huge idiotic inbreed imbecile out of yourself
@SMGJohn WRONG! "Propose" is NOT the same as "invent." BESIDES the CHINESE were 700 years BEFORE Tsiolkovski AND Robert Goddard INVENTED LIQUID FUEL ROCKETS-period. Bell labs in New Jersey invented BOTH the transistor and integrated circuit, so run along little lying troll.
@dieselscience transistor was invented by a Canadian fool. LOL you stupid Americans, all you do is just take a patent and claim your the first inventor but all you are is failures. And integrated circuits was invented by Werner Jacobi which filled the first patent fool he worked for Siemens AG.
Pedro Paulet made the first Liquid fuel Rocket. So he is the inventor of it but Tsiolkovski is notable for coming up with the idea. Without this man we still be flying propell powered airplanes
@SMGJohn No, he is correct - the transistor and integrated circuit were invented at Bell Laboratories in New Jersey, USA. ALL OTHER ATTEMPTS DID NOT FUNCTION AS INTENDED, therefore, THEY DID NOT MATTER! Look up Shockley and Pearson. That is simple, plain FACT and I get paid LOTS of money to know things like this. You can sit in your mother's basement and say anything you wish but anyone who can read will spot you for the troll you are.
@DrMotorDude So, your actually trying to suggest that anything improved and works properly is regarded as invented? No fail. I already stated who made the transistor and integrated circuit. If you can't deal with the fact child then get the fuck out of here. I am not interrested writting 6000 words about who the fuck invented this and that in order to slap you in your face about Americans inventing life itself.
Your seriously retarded. Sorry but I live in a better house then you ever will n00b
@SMGJohn Erm...no. The US invented the internet. Sorry to burst your bubble. Europeans invented the world-wide-web. The internet and world-wide-web are not interchangeable. It's is a service(one of many) ON the internet.
@SMGJohn It's good to see your version of "facts" come directly out of your ass. There was only one M-60 lost in the gulf war to enemy fire, and it was simply damaged. The crew was fine. The Bradleys(which isnt a tank so I dont know why you are comparing them. Should I compare the M1A1 against a BMP?) only lost 3 to enemy fire. So please, keep fabricating your "facts" to base your entire argument on.
@screecwe One? I think you forgot the 000 behind it. It was actually OVER 1000 M60 lost against ONE Soviet T-17 Tankette firing three 2mm armor piercing rounds. You also lost 3000 Bradlies against Saddam Bin Laden with a toast in his hand and a sword in the other. He managed to chop every 3000 IFV in half and eat his toast.
@SMGJohn Your comment is so full of stupid, I have to commend you. To be able to cram that much stupid into 500 characters or less is truly an accomplishment. There should be some sort of stupid Olympics to give a greater platform for you to put your stupid on display to the masses and surely win gold medals in multiple events. Hats off to you and your overwhelming command of the ability to be so incredibly stupid.
@screecwe if there was a stupid Olympic I think you hit the record every time there was Olympic. Peace out kid, I am taking my magic umbrela and burning some Abrams with my flamethrower because the armor is of paper.
That's not a siren; it's a combination of the turbine engine and the tank's hydraulics being caught on the open mic(rophones) of the crew. But yes, it is annoying. Good thing us tankers wear ear protection.
@delavega92 no not really although you can i knew a guy that got his head caught in a breach blowback he had serious problems for a while but didnt get permanently injured
Hydraulic pumps arent so reliable ! They sometimes fail and need a while to load up when it's bin used alot. You cant shut off the engine. Modern tanks can because there electric. A second engine provide electricity so every electronic system still works. It's more stealthy, fuel efficient and it's much longer operational. It cant drive one it but it's very quickly switched to the main engine you only has to push 1 button. I almost now for sure that the M1A2 has this. ;-)
Tank rounds are always with a shellcase. This combustible shellcase is used for artillery. Not mobile artillery like the PZH2000 or M109a6 because the high pressure. I didn't know that the M1a1 still use hydraulics ? Many modern tanks use a electric turret. The last version that used hydraulic pumps was the leopard 2a4. The leopard 2a5, 2a6 and 2a7 are all electric with generators.
@glendelio not so. m829 ke rounds and m830 heat rounds have semi-combustible casings that leave only a smallish cap. no brass. dunno bout german or other leo2 rounds but i'd be surprised if they were any different
Lol yeah totally. That whine is 100% authentic . the brain learns to tune it out after a while. If someone says its not real, theyve never been in an abrams.
My brother Markus Bott had been tortured during 5.5 years by the German BND,the former GESTAPO. I recorded more than 100 videotapes which ended up in the legal system. My brother was tortured during 1.5 years despite several legal procedures pending. He was assassinated on July 11th 2009 because of our homepage, linked on my channel, and our book Der Totalitäre Staat. If my homepage disappears,the BND will have assassinated me as well
Thumbs up if you want the BND to stop torturing my parents
@HunterKiller87 The case is combustable and burns away when the round goes off. All that's left is the base and primer called the "aft-cap" which is automatically ejected to the floor. The part of the breach that drops at the end of the vid deflects the aft-cap to the floor.
@Blueatchley12 Because rimfire would not reliably and consistently ignite 7.9 kg of propellant at the extreme level of flame propagation that is required here.
@HunterKiller87 The 105mm on the MGS strykers still uses these, but now the 120 only thing that comes out it the aft cap which comes out automatically. not enough room to store the shells
@NObsNbart yeah, that Tankerc guy is obviously one of the worst. He just messaged me to tell me that another of my videos is bullshit because the computer on the M1 boresights and does all the math on the tank for you. According to him, you don't need to boresight your coax machine gun because the computer does it already.... oh, how I wish that my tank could boresight itself, but that's obviously not possible. I'm afraid that even in 2011, you still have to zero it yourself.
Very impressive, Twigs. I have a target prctice discarding sabot round sitting in my collection. The case is fiberglass but the dart with cone stabilizer and the base are the real thing. I cannot possibly imagine what it must be like to hear/feel one of these going off right next to me. I also have a M-831 TP-T projectile with fins. What a beast! You manhandle these? Thank you for your military service. You rank higher in my book than any politician, movie star, even Superman.
That whining noise is the Hyrdaulic pump. You would much rather hear that noise, then manually traverse the turret. It has 2 traversing modes, but it still is a work out on your arm.
@PJ3love Oh god I sincerely hope you're not referring to the "Cojone Eh" tank. If you are, read a book. You can talk ifs and buts all you want. Yeah sure they can shoot the gun tube and destroy that, they can hit the mantle which is still a very small target and they can hit the sights. But really, in a real tank battle WW2 tanks wouldn't stand a chance. Assuming we didn't shoot them at max range like we train to. Which is twice the max range of the tiger. All odds are stacked against it.
@Twigbutt The gun is the american M256. Nothing else than a license production of the L44 by Rheinmetall but with some modifications (the breech for example).
how come its going "beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeebaaaaaaaaaangggggggeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep"?
It's very load due to the gyroscopes inside the tank, which makes the turret steady while the tank's body is bumping. The M1's engine is loud too, but between the crew and the engine, there's a very thich wall, so, you can't almost hear the engine.
I absolutely love the sound of that AGT-1500. Sexiest MBT in the world. I love the Abrams. A pain in the ass to maintain, but an absolute killing machine when taken care of. Fucking hooah. Respect to all you 19K's outthere! :)
@apocalypse1812 yea, i know all about how it comprimises the armor. I want to know what it does to actually KILL the tank:making holes in armor doesn't necessarily stop a 40 ton MBT.
@boobtuber06 Once the incredibly fast moving piece of metal gets through the armor it's in a confined space with a bunch of squishy meatbags. Without the meatbags, the tank can't function.
@boobtuber06 Once the sabot penetrates the armor, it causes spalling inside the tank killing the crew and setting off the ammo. Russian built tanks like the T-72 had the ammo stored facing up for the auto loader around the turret ring, which is why the turrets always blew off. This plus over pressure from the penetration makes for a very bad day inside.
@ba3cool There was an incident in the first Gulf war where an M1A1 got stuck and couldn't be towed out. The decision was made to destroy it. Of course another M1 was sent in to do the deed- and try as it might with firing it's ordinance to blow it to smithereens. Result: Fail!
@boobtuber06 The sabot is a piece of material that keeps the penetrator round in place. the penetrator round is this narrow, 10 pound piece of spent uranium with a point, super dense and its soft metal, so it just cuts through armor like a hot knife through butter.
thanks for putting this video up. I always assumed the inside of a tank to be insulated from most sounds. I never knew it was so loud inside like this.
@joscobo you have to get your ears checked like every 6 months, or atleast seemed like that often. It's not that loud though, those helmets cancel out quite a bit of the noise.
@locoawise no...you watched that in discovery,right? ha ha ...give me one reasons leo2a5 should be the best....btw...there is a6...you are just stupid....
@aleksandarfriscic You came to say T 90 is the best.Now,the only times I heard that was from some russian who think the USSR is not over. Now,in discovery chanel,the super machine series once showed the best tank in their opinion: M1 Abram.So u should stfu.I'm no expert in tanks,only everybody,including the cocky americans,say the leopard is the bets.Now,if u motherfucking expert,knows it better,then perhaps u could just explain yourself,why the T 90 is so damn spetacular!!
@locoawise hahahahah....experts....you mean "american experts"...and i just love arguing with americans cause you are god damn stupid! ...ok..abrams have gun range 3600m wich is great...but t-90 have 5500m range...and 7000m reflex ATGM...t-90 is lighter (faster,MUCH more maneuverable and minor chances to suck in mud or something),its wider so it is easier to corner,its alot lower,so it is a smaller target,and it have Shtora II and Arena systems....read next comment for explanation....

What happens to the old shell casing? Every time I see one of these videos the loader doesn't take the old casing out before he puts in a new round.
HunterKiller87 7 months ago
@HunterKiller87 The case is combustable and burns away when the round goes off. All that's left is the base and primer called the "aft-cap" which is automatically ejected to the floor. The part of the breach that drops at the end of the vid deflects the aft-cap to the floor.

@Blueatchley12 Because rimfire would not reliably and consistently ignite 7.9 kg of propellant at the extreme level of flame propagation that is required here.

@NObsNbart yeah, that Tankerc guy is obviously one of the worst. He just messaged me to tell me that another of my videos is bullshit because the computer on the M1 boresights and does all the math on the tank for you. According to him, you don't need to boresight your coax machine gun because the computer does it already.... oh, how I wish that my tank could boresight itself, but that's obviously not possible. I'm afraid that even in 2011, you still have to zero it yourself.

I cannot possibly imagine what it must be like to hear/feel one of these going off right next to me. I also have a M-831 TP-T projectile with fins. What a beast! You manhandle these?

@PJ3love Oh god I sincerely hope you're not referring to the "Cojone Eh" tank. If you are, read a book. You can talk ifs and buts all you want. Yeah sure they can shoot the gun tube and destroy that, they can hit the mantle which is still a very small target and they can hit the sights. But really, in a real tank battle WW2 tanks wouldn't stand a chance. Assuming we didn't shoot them at max range like we train to. Which is twice the max range of the tiger. All odds are stacked against it.

@unclepoepoe the reason it makes that noise is because the engine is rite bye it and the engine is a jet turbine , plus the hydrolics on the turrent
cammander263 1 year ago
It's very load due to the gyroscopes inside the tank, which makes the turret steady while the tank's body is bumping. The M1's engine is loud too, but between the crew and the engine, there's a very thich wall, so, you can't almost hear the engine.

@boobtuber06 Its called Kinetic Energy, just speed X mass...
10 pound projectile, traveling at 1800 meters per second...
and dont forget it is made of depleted uranium, wich is more dense than other metal that is used in armor.
apocalypse1812 1 year ago
@apocalypse1812 yea, i know all about how it comprimises the armor. I want to know what it does to actually KILL the tank:making holes in armor doesn't necessarily stop a 40 ton MBT.
boobtuber06 1 year ago
@boobtuber06 Once the incredibly fast moving piece of metal gets through the armor it's in a confined space with a bunch of squishy meatbags. Without the meatbags, the tank can't function.
agadhahab1 1 year ago
@apocalypse1812 "just speed X mass..." Nitpick: velocityxmass is momentum. Kinetic energy is 0.5xmassxvelocity^2. ;)
GeneralCalculus 1 year ago
@boobtuber06 Once the sabot penetrates the armor, it causes spalling inside the tank killing the crew and setting off the ammo. Russian built tanks like the T-72 had the ammo stored facing up for the auto loader around the turret ring, which is why the turrets always blew off. This plus over pressure from the penetration makes for a very bad day inside.
Twigbutt 1 year ago 18
@Twigbutt Can the overpressure from the penetration alone flip the turret?
boobtuber06 1 year ago
@Twigbutt What would happen to the crew if you shoot that sabot at another M1?

@ba3cool There was an incident in the first Gulf war where an M1A1 got stuck and couldn't be towed out. The decision was made to destroy it. Of course another M1 was sent in to do the deed- and try as it might with firing it's ordinance to blow it to smithereens. Result: Fail!
Essnem 6 months ago
@boobtuber06 Depleted Uranium is pyrophoric. It ignites from the friction and you have molten fragments flying around inside the tank.
ppitm 10 months ago
@boobtuber06 The sabot is a piece of material that keeps the penetrator round in place. the penetrator round is this narrow, 10 pound piece of spent uranium with a point, super dense and its soft metal, so it just cuts through armor like a hot knife through butter.
