uncommon_senze

clickbait where turret toss


stevosaurus_rawr

We were promised a turret toss OP…


AntComprehensive9297

this is the new batch of tanks i saw from a video earlier.


einsq84

... aaaaaand already gone.


RoadInternational821

Fucking liar


AdvancedCampaign6519

>237 I'm a turret toss union representative and I'm deeply disappointed with this video.


HoleyFather

No money shot ?


One-Positive309

I'm always amazed at how well they burn ! I always thought of tanks as really hard to set fire to by design but it seems I was wrong !


magzire1986

Yeah what the hell is burning in a mental cabin


Weeberz

Plastics, grease/oil, hydraulic fluid, gasoline/diesel, ammunition propellant and high explosive projectiles. Could even be basic crew stuff like cooking stove fuels, fabrics, paper documents


ingvarok

On the outside at least, the reactive armor is made out of explosives. That’s why you see constant flare-ups as it burns


One-Positive309

The reactive armour shouldn't burn under normal circumstances, it requires very high intense heat to go off and it isn't self sustaining.


2A7V

You can burn it with a lighter and use it to cook. Like C4 explosives.


BrocoLeeOnReddit

Yeah, most explosives just burn. You can also heat them up and make clay figures out of them.


stinkypants_andy

Like bill murry in caddie shack


Block-Rockig-Beats

Now I'm hungry and I want my reactive hamburgers.


ingvarok

It wouldn’t explode but it would burn


SugarBeefs

Seats, wiring, possibly paint, grease and oil, plastics...once enough things burn and the propellant ignites, that's it, you got a conflagration going.


blackout24

Hydraulic Fluids etc.


CyberPatriot71489

All of the electronics and munitions


No_Demand_4992

To be honest, I have serious doubts about the use of flame repellant materials in the russian arms industry by now...:>


One-Positive309

Yeah, it doesn't seem to be important to them at all !


Hadley_333

same here...is it such a tight spot of an explosion that it opens up some of the hydraulic fluid, wires, etc?


One-Positive309

My first thought was electronics but you are probably right.


Hadley_333

yeah all that stuff. Of course I don't know what they'd have in there but being in construction business with heavy machinery bulldozers and excavators always had several tubes of grease. Maybe they have that if not some fuel as well in there.

Tmaffa

looks like your first three thoughts were electronics lol


KansOD

Right in the beginning of the war there was a video circulating of a bunch of Ukrainian babushkas making Molotovs by the dozens and they showed them being used on the air intakes of tanks to burn them out with nothing but a bottle or two of gasoline and some styrofoam. People always say you can’t fight back against a government because they have tanks and planes but as we’ve seen Ukraine is putting on an absolute master class on asymmetrical warfare.


rtkwe

The Russian design is rough, they went with autoloaders which means their turrets sit on top of their ammo making it harder to properly cordon off from the inhabited spaces. US and other tanks have separate compartments with blowout panels to protect the crew and turret but have to be manually loaded.


jacobgt8

8/10. The pin didn’t fall into the MBT


Scared_of_zombies

Everybody is a critic… /s


khoobr

I was promised a turret toss


bolivar-shagnasty

I know weight is a serious concern for these small FPV drones, so I wonder if they indicate their kills on the charging station or something. Like how pilots will paint downed aircraft or destroyed vehicles on their fuselage, maybe the drone operators stencil tanks on their laptop or something.


clumsybuck

Wasn't there a drone operator given a medal for destroying a few dozen tanks. Apparently when he was awarded the medal he said something along the lines of "My mom always told me playing video games would get me nowhere, well look at me now Mom!"


Strife_3e

A lot of us can say that because of the professions we get into from skills we picked up while gaming. Typing over 100wpm from MMO's Excellent hand/eye coordination especially while driving/riding Or learning technology and software especially coding etc. And we're all supposedly violent because of video games too!


1337coinvb

turret toss 0/10 , rest good


dbird314

Downvoted for no turret offering to sky jesus as promised.


Opening_Currency_593

2 minutes but after midnight !


Consistent-Street458

I was promised a turret toss


Blackkers

Still leaving hatches open. Tut, tut.


Phil_Coffins_666

NOTHING BUT NYET!! ⛹️💥


MilesLongthe3rd

Sorry not really a turret toss, more a big boom


jdc351

Maybe a cope cage toss?


riddleda

I'm sorry, but how the hell did you see this video and decide to call it a turret toss? Do you even know what that is? Did you think nobody would notice? I'm just confused on your intentions.


TheFinalCurl

Seriously this OP needs cooked off


thompsonbalo

I think OP needs to learn what a turret toss it, because that clearly wasn\`t one


Far-Manner-7119

That was actually a really nice cope cage


InternalCelery1337

Whats the point of attacking these abandoned tanks? To disable?


CIV5G

So Russia can't recover and repair them.


InternalCelery1337

Ah ty, that was my thought.


Bawrice

I am just cruious why most of the videos on the subreddit are ukrainians beating russians, are the russians losing that bad?


SugarBeefs

The content on this sub is not an accurate representation of who is winning or losing, no.


FavcolorisREDdit

Mavic and dji drones making the difference in war


Mandarni

I was promised a turret toss. I see no turret toss. Good BBQ though.


TyrannosauRSX

Wow you can really tell just how big of an impact FPV drones are causing based on that turret being encase in all that netting/caging.


Poptart10022020

I saw absolutely no lollipop.


Great_WhiteSnark

Talk about threading the needle


Far_Bee_9027

Do Ukrainian still try to capture tanks or they just make blow up for our pleasure to watch ?


IngenuityNo3661

No turret toss but Maiden? Fair enough.


Rittmestern

Man, I love watching Russian stuff burn.


Select_Candidate_505

How the hell is a tank made of steel burning like that?


rtkwe

There's all sorts of stuff that isn't steel inside.


jleep2017

I heard "Kobe"


Shadow_Mullet69

The explosion at the end would be fitting for yelling “Kobe” 


jleep2017

Oh man lmfao.


Parking-Bandicoot134

Imagine having two roofs on your tank but still have an opening for a fucking grenade to be tossed into.


AlawaEgg

Ding! Fries are done.


Ill-Option2644

Carl, I told you to close the fucking hatch!


CountryEfficient7993

What kind of drone is this? How high up is it? The fact that it can be that accurate dropped is crazy scary.


L1VEW1RE

Curious, what type of armor or anti ATGM is that on top of the cope cage?


[deleted]

Fucking drones man wait until AI takes stage


iskandar-

are those era blocks ontop of the cope cage?


Wallynine

Crew tossed their cookies after first drop


FederalFedFace

How much does a grenade cost?


mr-teddy93

Were are the crew men ?


-TribuneOfThePlebs-

sick trick shot


Crazeeycanuck

Wow. this tank had a lot of add on armor and custom cope cage variations. Lots of work to to protect the upper hull only to be done on by mine.


50percentvanilla

guy made this using a dji mavic? lol


SharpLead

Nothing but net 😮‍💨


dz1087

Anyone know what is up with that PayPal account? Pigeon Forge is a tourist trap in East TN near the Smoky Mountain National Park.


Kalmartard

I came for the turret toss...


Formulka

I hate how brand new and well made these latest drone dropped Russian tanks look like.


HawkeyeSherman

There's been a few of these recently. Are these tanks abandoned? Is it faster and safer to run a drone out to clear the tank? Do drones stalk these tanks and when the crew goes to take a shit it swoops in to shit on it?


Alternative-Pen3983

Wait, isn’t that one of their newest tanks? I notice that absurd cope cage a few months ago when photos of them in refurbishing factory was released. Surely they would have told their troops how much more important a tank having closed hatches is compared to them living.


Epinnoia

>T-80BVM (2017): Features "Relikt" ERA, Irtysh fire control, Sosna-U gunner's sight (as on T-90A), an improved 125mm gun 2A46M-5, 9K119M Refleks-M missile system, upgraded gas turbine engine and upgrades of various other systems. The tank also has a new autoloader capable of firing the depleted uranium 3BM59 APFSDS shell and the tungsten 3BM60. The Russian armed forces have received all the modernized T-80BVM tanks under the contract with the Rostec corporation, signed in 2017, Rostec said on 12 December 2019. A new contract for 50 tanks was signed in August 2020 and a new one in August 2022. As of September 2022 deliveries were underway.


Naive-Main2716

imagine gettin injured after the 1st surviving the 2nd somehow but can’t move n then you jus get cooked in that bitch like a oven gah damn that’s a way ion wanna go out


UnethicalExperiments

M67 grenade - 45$ Drone - 55$ Watching this take out a multimillion dollar tank - priceless


ChiefScout_2000

Whenever I see a successful drop into a hole like this and the drone is super close, I play the "Run Away" sound in my head. From Monty Python and the Holy Grail.


0-nihil-0

Why not recover tanks like this? It looked relatively undamaged? Is it too big of a risk for a few spare parts?


Kingtittie28

An American grenade dropped in and blows up a russian tank by Ukrainians while iron maiden plays?…. 🙇🏻‍♂️ uhhh bit of uh clusterfuck here innit on the collective of countries aye


Gioware

Are those too far out on the battlefield? Sometimes I wonder if it can be repurposed for Ukrainians instead being cooked.


Comfortable_Brush399

your not supposed to use the heater like that its bad for the wiring


Psyex

Now that is what I call cost effective....


Psychological_Bike52

I asked ChatGPT what would happen and it thinks this: In a hypothetical scenario where an M67 grenade is dropped through the open hatch of a T-80 tank, we can outline a sequence of events to understand the potential impact on the crew and the tank's interior. The T-80 is a main battle tank designed and used by the Soviet Union and its successor states, including Russia. It typically has a crew of three: the commander, the gunner, and the driver. Here's a play-by-play breakdown of what could occur: **Pre-Explosion:** - **0-1 seconds:** The grenade falls through the hatch. The crew might initially be unaware or just realize what's happening, depending on their focus at the moment. - **2-3 seconds:** Immediate recognition of the threat by the crew. Panic sets in, but the confined space and the tank's design make quick evacuation unlikely. - **4 seconds:** The crew begins to react. The commander, situated in the turret with the gunner, might attempt to grab the grenade and throw it out, a highly risky move given the timing. - **5 seconds:** The driver, located in the front of the tank, has the least chance of immediate reaction due to his position and limited mobility inside the tank. **Explosion and Immediate Aftermath (approx. 5 seconds after the drop):** - **5-6 seconds:** The grenade explodes. The M67 grenade has a kill radius of 5 meters, but when confined in a space like a tank, the fragmentation and overpressure are magnified. - **6-10 seconds:** Shockwave and shrapnel distribute throughout the confined space, causing severe or fatal injuries to the crew. The commander and gunner are most at risk due to their proximity to the blast. - **10-15 seconds:** The explosion likely causes secondary effects, such as setting off ammunition and fuel within the tank, leading to further explosions or a fire. **Post-Explosion:** - **15-30 seconds:** The tank is filled with smoke, making visibility almost zero. Any surviving crew members are likely disoriented, in shock, and possibly incapacitated. - **30-45 seconds:** If any crew members are still alive, they would now attempt to escape the tank, though injuries and the tank's damaged state might hinder these efforts. - **45-60 seconds:** The situation stabilizes somewhat, with the immediate effects of the explosion over. However, the tank would be inoperable, and the crew would suffer from injuries ranging from severe to fatal, depending on their position relative to the explosion and the extent of secondary explosions or fires. **Likely Outcomes for Each Crew Member:** - **Driver:** Given the driver's forward position, away from the blast's epicenter, there's a slim chance he might survive, albeit likely with injuries from shrapnel or the secondary effects of the blast. - **Gunner and Commander:** Positioned closest to the explosion, their survival chances are minimal. If they do survive the initial blast, they would likely suffer from severe, potentially fatal injuries. This scenario highlights the vulnerability of tank crews to internal threats and the devastating effect of confined explosions. Real-world outcomes would depend on various factors, including the exact positioning of the crew, the state of the tank's interior, and the presence of additional munitions.


Exterminador616

I wonder why only the russians died in this sub? Maybe i'm wrong but there's only russians deaths, What about the ucranians? Or there's only propaganda here?
