Thoughts about amphibious tanks?
>>65255373I wish they were better because amphib landings are hella cool but ultimately useless in modern age.
useless against drones
if if you want a video of the future just imagine a first person view feed of a drone blowing up every other piece of military equipment, FOREVER
>>65255373looks like a huge duck to me
>>65255382nah, imagine yourself as the guy recording the aftermath of the zigger blowing his guts. remember to zoom on the still beating heart.
>>65255373I think they're just as good as HMS Captain!
>>65255373drone baitliterally like a sitting duck
>>65255373>Thoughts about amphibious tanks?I've seen way too many videos of them sinking to ever want to be in one.I'm genuinely impressed that that tank didn't capsize when it fired.
>>65255373it's either amphibious or it's a tank
Chink spam.
I like them
>>65255373There risky and in the era of drones ducks in the water.
>>65255373Insanely cool. Possibly the coolest type of military vehicle. Not super practical or good unfortunately. Look at what all they had to do to make this thing capable in more than a calm sea state.
Literal memeA missile is cheaper and drones/attack helicopters can carry more stuffWorst case scenario modern navies will revert back into fully armed battleships and dreadnoughts, bigger guns which fire bigass shells that can't be swatted away by missiles or pewpew lazorsImagine cheap drones and you can't abandoneer in the middle of the sea
>>65255876You still need infantry to take the ground
>>65255907I'm struggling here because I'm pretty sure dedicated naval infantry (ie the Marine crops - USMC HOOOORRRAAAAAAAAHHHH) are more useless than paratroopers in a modern context.Airborne paratrooper forces at least have a smaller profile and less Drone inspiring heavy equipment, and they can carry drones into battle.>bbbbbuuttttt VDV at HOSTEMELThat was an air assault operation, big difference - they used HELICOPTERS
>>65255373Can't wait to see Taiwan's physical defenses against landings. What happens when this thing fouls up on a tank trap in 5m of water?
>>65255373Not going to be much use outside that millpond.
>>65255907you'd be better off using anything else to secure the beach head and then using larger landing craft that can offload like 1000 people and 100 vehicles all at once going all in with troops in the armored stuff to take a beach in 2026 seems like a great way to have 12+ of your dudes and the IFV sink to the bottom of the water after it gets fucked to death by drones
