    I'm having trouble, too, Jens. I have to be especially careful, as I'm using the computers at my local public library to get online. I don't want to damage one and wear out my welcome.

    Looking at that video would make you think twice about wanting to be in a tank crew, or at least a T-72.

    There is evidence that this is a doctored test with the target being rigged with explosive for effect.

    well, on the battlefield the tank would be full of ammo and fuel, that would make a big bang too

    can you imagine the effect of the explotion adding the fuel and the ammo of the tank?
    if this video shows just an empty tank, :eek: :eek:

    When tank with heavy armor is 'blown to bits' like this it signifies the use of HE either as a Bomb or a rigged charge. KOed tanks don't blow up like that , they usually just pop their cork.

    The test was rigged.
