Wouldn't surprise me, given ordinary tanks need a crowd to walk behind them In case they get stuck, or actually fire one of their cannony things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it's better for the poor infantry to have a self-propelled cannon than having to drag it across a muddy field. I hear tanks aren't that good on muddy fields though.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear tanks aren't that good on muddy fields though.. My research (watching old films) leads me to conclude tank technology has got worse. They seemed to go head to head blowing lumps out each other and driving through buildings before. Tanks these days would be tipped over if they ran over a beach ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we've learned that all the technology is different, what with tanks, things that look like tanks, all sorts of doo-hickey going on, I can't be expected to remember everything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely enough, that's exactly what my grandfather did in the war. He was a cook with the 8th Army all the way up Italy. When he was demobbed, he never cooked again! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically, it’s built on a licensed copy designated the WZT-1, and first used as a tank recovery vehicle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Girkin’s latest update, dripping with sarcasm. it is funny but always worth remembering that Girkin is responsible, personally and directly, for hundreds of deaths, including the shoot down of MH17. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
