By the way - the autoloader design does indeed have everything to do with the flying turret escapades. Ever wonder why most Western designs with autoloaders expressly avoid having their ammunition in a carousel under the turret ring - instead putting the ammunition in a bustle, etc?
I’ll give you a clue.
It keeps the charges AWAY from the fighting compartment.
Once again I have to quote RedEffect, in his video debunking myths about the T72, THERE IS NO CASE OF AN AUTOLOADER THAT HAS MULTILATED ITS CREW, damn Luque, can’t you manage a single topic without posting a lie in the middle?
I think when it comes to unbiased info on Soviet tanks - Red Effect is in the same category as Basil Brush, Lazerpig and some random guy in the pub. I wouldn’t put too much store into their takes on AFVs…
Well okay - that’s not quite fair. Basil Brush always struck me as misunderstood.
Who here was talking about Javelin? I’m talking about autoloader. If you think RedEffect is a propagandist, why don’t you prove it? Send a link or something that proves they have a bias, something I’m sure you won’t do because there’s no way to prove it.
For crying out loud. I think you lot lack some basic comprehension skills… whereupon you then come onto the forums and complain that nobody understands you. Go figure.
You used Red Effect as a source to say that T-72 is X.
I countered by showing a link to a past video where Red Effect was shown to be unreliable.
Ergo - you posting Red Effect videos does not help your case, since he has been shown to be flat-out wrong on some rather basic AFV knowledge.
So, because of one mistake or error, all his credibility goes down the drain? From the beginning of something in 2022, he harshly criticized both sides and exposed the facts, and now because of a past mistake or error he made, everything else is worthless?
