Ever since I was in High School, and started becoming interested in tanks more & more. One of the vehicles that caught my eye was both the RDF/LT and HSTV-L. Not because of YouTubers, or any sort of obsession by people. I first found it weirdly enough while looking through Soviet air-deployed vehicles on pinterest… Ironic, I know, a lot of things have changed in terms of info since then.
Anyways, that’s aside the point. I know that one document about the Senate’s briefing on budget for many of the US projects says the HSTV-L’s ammo capacity tested, is 26. But that’s tested. Looking further into it, you can see the time it takes to unload the basket and the carousel. Minus the breech. And given, that’s probably why everyone claims it’s 26. Because loading and unloading it, that’s how it is.
However, given how the system works in question, which loads 6 munitions from the basket. I would think that it would be completely capable of uploading a extra 6 to the basket after the 6 is loaded.
Given in War Thunder you can load the full amount, in every stowage, from the start. I think this is a interesting topic point.
