China’s Junk Tanks Burst After 31 Shots: Exports Hundreds to Allies, Treats Them as Cannon Fodder

Several years ago, Bangladesh purchased several hundred 59G tanks from China, touted for their superior performance and affordability. In April this year, Bangladesh received a new batch of these tanks. On May 4th, during testing, one of the 59G tanks exploded while firing its 31st shell out of a planned 60, resulting in the death of the loader and severe injuries to the commander and gunner. The Bangladeshi military immediately suspended the use of this batch of tanks.

[@user-dr1vm3pj6q]

I worked with many engineers from China and the biggest problem that I had was that they could never admit to making a mistake! In the USA or Canada we just would acknowledge our error and get on with the job, happy in that found an error and we were putting out excellent work. A lot of engineers from China on the other hand, would bury any errors that they found that they had made. In some cases these were huge, very costly mistakes. But those engineers had quickly moved on to other companies, by the time the mistakes had been exposed. I always wondered how did these people manage to pass the State Professional Engineers Exam and get their license and stamp.

[@BluBarron]

This is normal for chinas manufacturing. The company I work for made the mistake of buying a Chinese made piece of equipment. The equipment has very minimal sensors for material location tracking. What that means is the machine has no idea where the material is. If it’s not exactly where it’s supposed to be the machine doesn’t know it and it just keeps doing what it thinks it supposed to do. It will in fact destroy itself and anyone around it if something doesn’t go exactly as it’s designed to. The example given makes perfect sense if you understand how they do things. Any other manufacturer would install sensors to track the breach. If it does not close properly the tank won’t fire. China will just cut that corner and leave those sensors out to save money. This is what happens.

One of the low-quality BRICS nations making sub-par tanks for their allies. Just like this tank, that's how the BRICS nations money policies will be managed, a disaster!

You tell me... I am from Brazil, the commies here are sending out money to support Cuba's dictatorship and Hamas, instead of helping with the floods happening in our country.

FYI, tank rounds are expensive. Even the practice rounds are well over $1k. The report suggests the tank was to live fire 60 rounds. Typically, whole battalion (ca 18 tanks or Regiment 54 tanks) would fire 1-3 rounds each during a given exercise. The barrels wear off after a few hundred rounds, so excessive training is extremely expensive option. Given Bangladesh military is purchasing T59G (not even VT4), which indicates lack of funding, it would be difficult to burn 60 rounds per tank at an exercise/ training.

Didn’t the anti air defence system that Serbia bought from china, fail on its first test fire attempt?

[@flashgordon3715]

But why did the tank explode? If you just fire a tank 31 times without stopping, you might blow different types of tanks.

it depends on what you're using it on. Aluminum is Great for a plane. Not so great for anything involving pressure tho

I hate China but really not a fan of the anti-Russia narrative, all actions in Syria are justified no matter what anyone says, Ukraine on the other hand is not something one can't sympathize with Ukraine, that's understandable, just not Syria.

Though this video and critics in Western countries, many Chinese people used to say that why foreign states didn't purchase made-in-China weapons. According to military experts in China, made-in-China weapons are awesome, so, foreign nations must buy their weapons right now. However, the CCP's best buddy Pakistan was perfectly fucked up due to the Army adopted Chinese weapons, but Chinese weapon developers didn't give the Army reliable maintenance processes when they were out of order. Chinese weapon builders need more technologies to raise their technical assets and reliability.

The "59" in T-59 refers to the year that the original type was developed in. This is 1959 weaponry with targeting upgrades to 2024 electronics. Sure, much better, but still 1959 era weaponry.

[@royzgaming441]

Shouldn't the crew be trained to inspect a tank during the exercise and detect potential failure, yes equipment can be bad but a properly trained operator should be able to see a failure coming
