Apart from all the "experts" that abound on YouTube.... A Hellfire is a shaped charge weapon and will leave a "scorch" mark. APFSDS as fired from a main battle tank main gun would leave a penetration which leaves a raised rim where it entered, kinetically.
But hey, I've only grown up around multiple Army Firepower demos and read the odd "restricted" publication. What would I know?!

Good
-
someone stole the motor :(
-
That got a kicking!
-
Yeah it looks like this one was taken out by another enemy tank fireing bands of looters...

No dead Body's in there?

i wana scrap the bitch n make me a fortune!

judging by the massive hole in the turret @ 0:30 this tank was hit by a hellfire missile or some other anti-tank missile
-
@taurospeed I'm going to guess that shipping that to the nearest recycling facility would incur expenses outweighing the going price for plate steel in the middle of the desert.

I'm confused. I know I'm not any sort of an expert, but since there is one hole (from what I can see) in the turret and it appears to be from a latteral trajectory (from what I can see), than how did the USAAF take out that tank? This isn't meant to be offensive, I'm just curious.
Did SOMEONE say Indiana Jones??

@tehBLAX Yeah, I've done 2 combat tours in Iraq, one of which was during the 2003 invasion. 1st Marine Division, recipient of Presidential Unit Citation and the Combat Action Ribbon, to name a few. You are obviously an expert on the war. I'd love to hear your thoughts.
I apologize if investigating apparent armored vehicles in the desert offends you, or deviates from the mission you are such an authority on.

Hey guys, relax. These tanks were taken out in Desert Storm by air power, not tank DU rounds. NBC personnel inspected the area.

This tank was not destroyed by DU rounds.
