@Thegus0 You sound exactly like the Iranian government when they claim the "holocaust never happened."

@B52Stratofortress1 The T-72M1 was not obsolete in 1991 and were not "less capable" than the equivalent T-72A. The T-72A was the most common tank in Russian service and the T-72M1 was the most common tank in Communist bloc countries at the time. The armor was the same. The Iraqi crews using th...

@T16Akatsuki its a maxi-gun, not a mini-gun

@TumisHumis The Typhoon doesn't have AESA. Its radar is leaps and bounds behind current F-15s. The only real advantage the Typhoon has over the F-15 is maneuverability, which is irrelevant in modern air combat as it occurs beyond visual range.

@TSR1989FF That issue was fixed with the wet ammo storage M4 models. TBH, most tanks in WW2 had very vulnerable ammo storage and the Sherman issue was probably overplayed historically. The problem with every single cruiser series tank was, sneezing at it would be a kill. The Sherman(and the ea...

@badgerattoadhall No it uses diesel fuel in the gas turbine. Look at the videos of them training with it at Puckapunyal- you can clearly hear the whine of the turbine.

@MrViTopol I was trying to be nice but I guess some people will always be stuck in 1973. Thankfully many people in your country are living in the present instead of chasing an insane cold war dream.

The T-90 has no ERA coverage on top of the turret. No MBT does. It also has a tandem-heat warhead so it doesn't matter if there is ERA on top of the tank. Top turret armor is very weak on every tank. The Javelin can kill a T-90 just as easily as it can kill a T-72M.

@TurdFurgeson55 The turbine engine can use any fuel including diesel, jet fuel, gasoline. It requires no warm up in cold weather. It delivers more torque than a turbodiesel giving greater acceleration. It is significantly quieter than a turbodiesel, which can be heard over a mile away. The tu...

@GodlikeNL Yeah, a great Russian tank. Too bad your technology is so far behind you had to buy the thermal sight from the French.

China is never going to be much of a world power when everyone else in Asia hates them and Russia has nukes pointed at them. Everyone seems to forget that the US has much better relations with China than Russia, Japan, South Korea, and Vietnam have. Combined with Taiwan, those five countries wo...

Bank of America is German. That's all I have to say.

@lst1195 They use modified T-72Zs, which are probably very similar to the T-72M1s with a few minor improvements. They also use the Zufliqar-2, which is a rebuilt M-60A1 zombie tank that is probably inferior to the T-72Z. The M1A1SAs would have no problem ripping through these as they are signif...

bond is classier, bourne kicks significantly more ass

This is really a competition? Come on guys, these tombs honor fallen warriors. Have a little more respect, regardless of the country.

@Undertaker3879 True but the first time you see 200 tracer'd minigun bullets skip off the top of a hill, Arma proves its worth. With the ACE mod its unbelievably realistic, the laser rangefinders and fire control systems. And it looks like Arma2's FLIR is better than DICE's here. Interesting t...

@999cheetos999 No it was the US unit that was ambushed by dug in T-72s. Read about it. A Bradley was destroyed by a T-72. The ammunition was NOT half propellant, it dented M1A1 armor whereas T-55 armor bounced off. Half propellant charge ammunition would have been weaker than the T-55 ammunit...

@LordPopeyeAlphaDog No, I think they have the latest FLIR gunner sight. The electronics that weren't included were mostly battlefield management stuff for the commander. Still has the high tech FCS etc.

@Zartan1357 Right. The piece of garbage that destroyed most of the T-72s they had in service.

@ChairmanBlimp Yes, most definitely assuming the tank crew halfway knows what they are doing. The Iranians use upgraded T-72s that are about 25 to 30 years out of date and rebuilt M-60 tanks that are 35 years out of date. These have some downgraded electronics and no DU armor/ammo but they stil...

The Abrams tanks you guys are getting down under are not "second hand", they are brand new and the latest M1A1 variant. There is no real difference in the capabilities of the Leo 2A6 and the M1A1. The major advantage the Abrams has is its extensive combat history. The Leo 2A6 is largely untest...
