This is what a manual assist loader is. This is on the Merkava Mk4. See how a crew member still has to manually load the shell into the breech.

Yes, Russia wasn’t the first to play with this. I’ll do some shameless self-quoting :
The problem I have with UniqueScorpions is that he’ll take one of the steps that leads to a technology being fully developped to justify russia inventing it. And invent its own criterias, such as the autoloader. Nothing says an autoloader doesn’t require human action, the definition isn’t even set in stone. It just loads the round for a human.
Arguably, basically every country making tanks got involved in the development of these technology at one point or an other.
USSR, focusing more on tanks in its doctrine, did a lot in the last step, which i would call integration and mass production. But it didn’t “invent” by itself
By the way, what i mentionned earlier does not come from my own mind, it’s a documented process :

Well, the Russians also donated around 500 tanks during the conflict. You could say that Russia has donated more tanks than the entire West combined.
This war has shown that drones are the greatest danger in warfare, and that’s why everyone will do whatever it takes, however minimally, to protect the vehicle. That said, it’s always better to be in a vehicle that has a chance of saving the crew than in one where you could be 100 meters above the ground at the slightest provocation.

Wow both sides adapting to a weapon they both field? Must be one side copying the other. Anyway this is getting off topic so lets bring it back to the game and not an IRL conflict.
Says the man complaining about a tank i dont even know existed, sit down and continue to play the game that you so despise, and on top of that. Says “go outside” when he plays a tank that most dont even know probably exists and yaps abt it on a forum like his highness has better things to do. LOL
But no, be a clueless brit main and barge into convos without reading like you said. Funny it hasnt worked out well enough

Having now recently play’d both. Until the Chally gets the increased HP seen in the dev server rn, it is the worst MBT I have ever play’d by far. The Ariete at minimum has an ok acceleration to it. Of all the tanks I’ve play’d, Russian and Japanese tanks preformed the best. Leopards were great for awhile but that turret basket addton has killed any joy in playing them or the Abrams.
I agree there’s too much grey area into what is what.

Ahh, what beautiful photos. Now show me the videos where those tanks detonate after the first impact, please.And don’t tell me there aren’t any videos, because in this war everything is recorded.

The Challenger was hit by a Lancet drone and suffered an ammunition explosion. The Leo 2A4s were Turkish and fighting ISIS. They were bombed by Turkish aircraft after being knocked out to prevent capture.
It’s against ToS to post videos.
And this is why nobody likes nato players…

They ran out of excuses and reasons to claim “muh russian biaz” and have instead resorted to screaming into the void. Thats what usually happens with these threads.

Y’all hit an all time low now.
Oh, would yah look at that @TROOPER7 did a retaliatory flag on my post, merely because his was ToS and I flagged it. Sweet, I love this system…

-Proceeds to flag other’s posts for dubious reasons.-
-Then complains about others flagging him for similarly dubious reasons.-
You don’t do irony do you?
Because one was ToS, and mine wasn’t.
No I get why NATO mains flag immensely. They can’t be wrong, it’s just not feasible.

Technically you were both posting images/video of war and/or the after-effects of it. So both against ToS.
Or not - depending on how strictly you interpret it.
You can’t whine about using the flag function for flagging something you don’t like, or you think is against ToS then complain that someone does similar in return. It’s called self-awareness.

i didnt flag your post , you see we are not the same and by the way why you flagged mine?
You literally showed 3 instances of people dying…? Self explanatory??
The mods have said it’s against ToS 😂 Jesus you can’t make up this level of ignorance.
After effects e.g. a wreckage is okay, the mods have said so in the past, as long as there is no gore and only a hunk of metal.
