Type 15 / VT5 tank female soldiers

[TOTUU]

PLA Type 15 tanks show collective charge formation, female tank soldiers drive tanks

The video says that Type 15 is a light tank designed for the high plateau. I think this is the biggest difference between Type 15 and VT5 design, different focus under the same technical conditions.

I'm really looking forward to seeing photos of VT5 in Bangladesh

What a beautiful machine. Love the camo.

The first batch of high-end version of VT5 tanks have reached BD but I do not expect our ladies to operate these fighting machines.

Janomot report: The first batch of Chinese VT5 light tanks was delivered to Bangladesh. Its configuration is higher than China’s own light tanks.According

Light tank for female. MBT or heavy tank for men.

This is the news in 2020, so long ago, there is no photo out.

I hope to see a video or photos sooner rather than later, and I'm looking forward to the Camo in Bangladesh.It would be better if it was a video of a military drill. ❤

Our military people are quite sensitive about releasing information on weapons purchases. So, I do not expect photos and no photo sessions with young ladies.

Interesting that the PLA allows female tank crews, whereas the Russian Federation doesn't. In the latter case, females are automatically barred from joining tank regiments. Because according to Russian regulations, women aren't allowed to lift over 15kg (i think) above their waist. Which puts them out of most army jobs. It's kinda arbitrary, but that's how they roll.

It's amusing to watch some Uighur chicks rattle off more tank gun rounds in under 60 seconds than the whole Indian Army did (on camera at least) for a whole year in Ladakh.

Chicks and tanks, a man’s wet dreams

Here's my analysis
The old Russian tanks (T72/T90) are very hard to drive and require a lot of strength and stamina. Chinese tanks are very good to drive since Type 96 tanks, as long as you can drive a car, you can drive a tank. Type 15 and VT5 tanks are 105mm tank guns, and its shells are lighter, which also reduces the strength requirement. Although both have automatic loaders, the shells also need to be carried inside the loader by people.

Yes, I was let to try driving 59 once when we were hauled for drills in college. I think I was one of the strongest in class, and yet tried to pull levers with my foots on the floor, it barely flinched.

The transmission steering there is basically a differential with two mechanical brakes on both sides, one per lever.

All Russian, and Chinese tanks prior to nineties had to slowdown to turn because of that.

And, please note my analysis based on how Japanese women drive cars. They are quite slow and cannot just pick up enough mental power to follow the driver ahead of her. She always remains quite behind.

In my case, I usually avoid driving behind a woman driver to avoid accidents. When unable to avoid, I remain far behind because it is very difficult to guess if she will suddenly press the brake at the sight of the Yellow (not so yellow) signal when four more cars can pass through the Red easily.

After saying so, I must admit that Japanese women who work as drivers of trucks or other heavy vehicles are quite capable. They can manipulate the road turns and curves better than men. I have heard Japanese man drivers saying the same.

In our case, our women do not even drive cars (most men and women do not). So, without preliminary experience to drive even the 4-wheelers, I do not think our women can be good tank operators.

I will not say anything about how they will behave at the sound of bullets in a war field. They hate the sight of cockroaches and do you think they will love all those sounds of firing?

Women are the same everywhere though some are/were courageous. For example, Queen Elizabeth of England.

Operating a modern tank doesn't take much physical ability anymore, with modern transmissions, autoloaders, and so on. It's the maintenance bit that's demanding. Like changing tracks, changing track tensions, replacing road wheels (when damaged), checking for torsion bar alignment, replacing the wheel and sprocket bearings, ammunition loading (onto the racks), and so on. Oh, and you must do all of that under full NBC suites, even under soaring heat.

Never drove a tank myself, but I'm told by others that the Type-59 (which is essentially a T-54A) is fairly demanding to drive by modern standards, but not undrivable either (like a T-34). The nicest T-54/55 from a driving perspective are the Czechoslovakian ones, as they fitted their own transmission system with a lot of servo assistance.

Generally, Russian tanks used mechanical direct transmission right until the T-90A. The disadvantages are no neutral steering (ie can't turn in its spot), clumsy at low speed, and slightly more physically demanding than modern hydrostatic or hydromechanical transmissions. Advantages were low cost, reliability, made no difference to medium/high-speed maneuverability, and significantly lower power loss compared to hydromech and hydrostatic transmission.

The Armata series uses a novel electro-mechanical system, with all the strengths of large/complex hydromech & hydrostatic transmission, but without parasitic power loss.

Can you tell more how did they do the armata transmission?
