Darwin missed that
>>64402187Is that an M60? When/where is this from?

>>64402187What would have happened if the car blew up when the tank was crushing it? Tank armor deflects it or the tank dies?
>>64402308nothing, because gasoline isn't explosive.
>>64402308Tank dies. Looked like a relatively small explosive payload. But the Patton is 1950s tech last updated in the 90s. Can't imagine it'd survive.Would it absorb ant of the explosive force or just get tossed though?
>>64402361Why would the driver/commander take such a huge risk then? That was an insane risk to take.
>>64402396Protect those around him.
>>64402187>>64402256>>64402258>Almost immediately, they engage the vehicle by running it over, at least partially crushing the vehicle and the terrorists inside. Shortly after being crushed, the vehicle is torn apart in a massive explosion, later identified by the Egyptian military as likely containing over 100 kilograms of explosive. Despite having some warning, three men, two women, and two children were killed in the blast
>>64402396stop it from moving i guess
>>64402396"fuck this stupid asshole" -> "LOL THAT REALLY WORKED"
>>64402582>100kg VBIED vs a tank
>>64402495Fuck you're right that was the tank equivalent of jumping on a live grenade to save your friends and comrades.
>>64402643Arty shells with ~7kg of HE kill tanks pretty often and 100kg is about the same amount of filler as a Mark 82 bomb so I don't see why it wouldn't work.
>>64402396Imagine diving on a grenade to save your comrades and some civilians. You have only a split second to react, you don't even have time to draw a gun and shoot it, (not that doing so would even accomplish anything)Except... Your fat ass squashed the grenade into the ground, so now you've got some UXO. Well fuck, it could go up at any second so better get the hell out of there, and just as you get clear it goes boom.

>>64402396>Why would the driver/commander take such a huge risk then?The alternative is the main gun which WILL set off any explosives in the target.
>>64402582>three men, two women, and two children were killedthey were probably in the blue truck next to the bomb car, you see the door open and close a couple times just before it blows
>>64403780commander 50 cal would be appropriate here, although not as much if they weren't in melee rangegunner coax would be appropriate as well, but maybe they had trouble getting them into the sights
>>64403780But it blew up anyway after crushing it, and that risked the lives of the crew + the tank. Why not just shoot it instead of doing the crazy heroics?
>>64402308Tank belly soft for belly rubs
>>64402187big boomriding over was very risky
>>64403939Heroism is based.You re the kind of person that wants to use Robots instead of EOD personel just because it saves muh lives
>>64403939Probably too close to shoot when they realized and running it over saved lives by giving everyone time to run.
Was there a timing device operating in addition to the manual switch?
>>64403939but it blew up LATER, which game time for people to run awayyou know, those civilian people that the car stopped RIGHT NEXT TO, and that the tank tried to shield by driving over the car while also moving so that the body of the tank would shield the cars and their occupants?just stop and try to analyze what you fucking see for like 30 seconds
>>64402187>The M60A3 drove away fully operational with no crew injuries though most exterior accesories were blown off or vaporized>The mass of the M60 protected most of the civilians and infantry column from the blast>The crew credited the high performance engine, high suspension and sheer weight to the victory as they were able to quickly accelerate onto the combatants and crush them to death then pivot and turn around to protect troops and civilians on the groundI love this fat bastard like you wouldn't belive
>>64403939I like crushing things.
>>64404291Imagine her with a strapon
>>64403780AN INTERNET HATE MACHINE
>>64404985But you have a penis. Why would you need a strapon as well?
>>64406861Bayonets are fun!

>>64403780DID 4CHAN DO THIS?!
>>64402396Unlike you fat demoralized animalistic americans there are people in the rest of the world who take your phrase protect and serve seriously.Those tank men lived to be heros, they would have died as good hero men if it went bad too. These are the things we accept we need to do.
>>64402187I love the M60. They're just going to keep upgrading it Ad Infinitum and keep in service for a fucking century it looks like.
