Someone should teach MKEK how to make a brass shell and fill it with RDX to make an HE round. We're firing sabots on PKK.MKE 120mm High Pressure Test Ammunition
Please don't tell me you confused HEAT with SABOT.Someone should teach MKEK how to make a brass shell and fill it with RDX to make an HE round. We're firing sabots on PKK.
It's disgraceful.
Right now we have MKEK APFSDS and Korean made HEAT. But HEAT is more expensive and has less explosive charge than the regular HE. We don't have HE.Please don't tell me you confused HEAT with SABOT.
Soooo... what is what now? Some report BMC got it others say there is still now decision?!
a 30mm ap round can get caught in that shot trap and penetrateYou can easily identify someone talking from their arse about tanks when they start talking about "shot traps". For modern APFSDS rounds and armour, the angle necessary for ricochet is less than 7°. For the latest penetrators it's probably about 5°. Sloped armour has only been used on relatively recent tanks for increasing LOS armour thickness, not to avoid shot traps. Shot traps haven't been a thing in tank design for almost 50 years.
What a cute tank !a 30mm ap round can get caught in that shot trap and penetrate
or hit the turret ring and immobilize the turret
as if sabot is the only round a tank can face in the battlefield
bad design is bad design regardless of the year
Israeli magach 6B had a similiarly shaped turret and they abandoned it.
I wonder why.
I bet 25mm gun on the bradley fighting vehicle would penetrate the of the M60's dorsal hull armor as well. Dorsal armor is about a centimeter thick RHA, it's really thin. Only question is, what type of armor Roketsan have used. It doesn't look like ERA to me I have a sneaking suspicion that it's not NERA either. However I will not share what I think it is.
