I propose lowering the combat rating of the Abrams

That isn’t how it works. It’s not a PT test. Stop talking about things you don’t understand. Do you think people just hand out marksmen when you don’t qualify in the infantry? You’d be getting remediated until you got it right. It’s not a desk jockey taking a PT test.

Stop making up stuff in your head to justify your stance.

You mean the LAV-AD? The vehicle with 12-16 missiles, a rotary cannon with good pen, stabilizer, great mobility, thermals, and a literal hydra rocket pod?

Lmao I’ve seen all this first hand. As the recruitment needs need to be met. If they’re very close but not exact, they’ll get passed unless it’s someone nobody likes

So you’re a US tanker and have watched quals first hand get pencil whipped.

From that to rifle qual, pt, etc. it happens.
Denying it doesn’t,
simply is being biased.

No no no, I asked you a specific question. Are you a tanker and evaluated and saw this happen? You said you had first hand knowledge.

do you know what incapable means now?

M1A2 Abrams Loader 3 seconds 3 seconds no lap loading. and yes i know the door is opened : )

Yes

Lol i know an actual vet from desert storm and he him self even knows the reload time is 3 / 4 seconds.

I think it’s a bad video because there’s no reference point, no start, he’s just already into the load. It’s better to have a “start” and see where it ends up from there. That video is not great IMO.

This video is much better. Seeing as not optimal conditions, like first column round, and waiting for the door to fully open. You could save near a half second off. Every time I’ve clocked this, it comes in right around 5.3 seconds, but I could be recording wrong.

That is not a combat load how idiotic do you think I am? This video has been proven to be not a real situation.
It’s:
-stationary

  • no body armor / NBC gear
  • his hand is already pulling the shell out
  • the blast door is already open.

But thank for again showing in absolute ideal conditions it still takes 3.85 seconds

yeah i saw this video i had a abrams loader video that did it in 4.6 seconds but for some reason they removed it from youtube. i cant find the leopard reload video either and that was under 5 seconds i have the challenger one https://youtu.be/e6hh-CoPKqU?t=77

my guy its 5:00 AM in the morning and i’ve been up all night and im not trying to even type.

except i do, he was even at the Highway of death, as a tank commander, and he himself said the Iraqis were not retreating, but were getting ready to counter attack. I truly don’t give a damn if you don’t believe me.

So 5.3 in mostly ideal conditions.
And this loader looks experienced.
In Warthunder:
Abrams tanks:
whipping about doing 40+ mph
cheese burger body armor on
Abrams is whipping around a corner

Oh sheesh your loader went flying across the tank. Now it’s a 14.0 sec load time.

He also broke a limb. So add another 8 secs

this is why we look down on all of you, you type stupid garbage. It would be like us calling you all ash cosmonauts, based on how a t series tank explodes.

that has literally no effect in a tank. lol

Oh I’m saving this quote lol.

And that was a jab that it’s well known usa crew members seem to live some crazy things in WT.

I do find it funny that you think I’m some Russian spy or something lol. Go tell your friend in the CIA that, or the FBI? Since apparently you know someone from every branch of everything.

Good.

Vehicles should be modelled correctly and balanced through BRs; not artificially manipulated and altered so that they fit BRs where they may not necessarily belong to.

But, in order to go higher in BR, Stingers would not only need to have their G overload fixed, but also be able to lock on helicopters beyond 2km.

They do lock beyond 2km. I keep getting hit in my Mi-24, Mi-35m, Alouette, etc all past 2 miles.

Which is hilarious especially when I have heat shields, and irccm on those hinds, then you know, flares don’t do anything to them.

It is undeniable that MANPADS lock-on is extremely unreliable past 1.5/2km. Yes it happens, but it’s far from the norm.
