The thing that really made my day is was stumbling across this on NRC:
source here: https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/event-status/event/2006/20061129en.html
So much for that NRC license stating there’s no DU in turret side armor lmao

That’s actually funny finding that information through a work place accident report.

I found something on NRC that made me laugh as well.
A planned test/build site (they did not specify purpose) that had put in a request (and got a licence!) For depleted uranium because they were expecting two US Army tanks to get to the site for “redacted”. The licence was for 88 THOUSAND kilograms of depleted uranium… We’re they planning to make the entire tank out of uranium?? xD

Found that one awhile back. If I had to guess they were probably trying out different array set-ups of DU armor to test their effectiveness on a pair of M1A2s

Makes sense. They never got the tanks though so they requested the license terminated.
But 88 metric tonnes of PURE uranium is still A LOT even for that purpose.
practically saying almost same stuff RedEffect did btw.
Especially when compared to DCS Corporation who only got 4,000 kilograms of DU authorized, although it didn’t specify the number of tanks iirc.

Yeah, except you cant even say that the source is just “biased”. Both of these can do their research. Quite more than some people thatz for sure.
Anyways, happy new year.

Leopard 2 SVT*, a vehicle inferior to the TVM. Yes, as it stands, 2A7V doesn’t even match TVM’s protection levels, a vehicle that Germany submitted for Trials back in 1993/4…
Somehow they regressed to pre-TVM levels, and we can all be thankful to Gaijin for that.

Centainly, I saw your report. Didn’t intend to make it sound like he had an original idea, just so we can steer this topic in a more constructive way outside of the DU hull.
More like “Youtubers can’t be bothered to do proper research.”

I’m not sure if this source has been used already as there’s a lot of responses and could’ve missed it, but according to https://asc.army.mil/docs/wsh2/2013-wsh.pdf
It says the M1A2 SEP has improved frontal and side armor as well as a picture of having a simulation weight on the LFP.

Tbh I feel bad for the poor guy. Imagine just testing some armor and then a jet of flame blasts out at you. Glad he is ok tho.
