"GREEN PEACE LEFT THE CHAT" (T-72 SMOKE SHOW)

Getting this Czechoslovakian T-72 Tank to run again has definitely taken a lot of time and effort.
I hope all the hard work is going to be worth it.

[@kalliste23]

I'm impressed how effective smoke mode is.

[@Savagetechie]

Well it works well for the red arrows.. it would definitely be obvious if you were running on red though.

[@kalliste23]

@@Savagetechie British armour uses smoke dischargers which fire grenades which nowadays have something akin to thermite particles to make the smoke hot to obscure in the infrared. I wonder if the smoke mode on modern Russian tanks puts extra additives into the fuel.

[@Savagetechie]

@@kalliste23 I would imagine they do, after all thermal imaging is completely ubiquitous these days so a straight smoke screen is only really confusing infantry.

[@osmacar5331]

It's used as a visual obscurant on pretty much every modern tank.

[@megalamanooblol]

@@kalliste23 Smoke dischargers are also a thing on a Soviet vehicles, these are 2 different systems. Smoke grenades allow you a smoke screen in seconds, these days those smoke discharges are automatic and tied to laser warning system or some other passive defense sensors. Engine smoke is something that can give you longer last screen to allow you retreat or obscure movement of the vehicles following the tank with ESS. I imagine by the nature of how ESS is working, that smoke will be quite hot, not sure it is hot enough to completely conceal the vehicle from hi-grade thermal, I imagine will very much depend on ambient conditions.

I spent some time in and around a T-72 here in the UK (the dark green and then tan coloured one at the War & Peace show years back). It will always be my favourite. It's just so stupidly violent, noisy, dirty, and my god the way the fan blasted a 30ft tall tornado of dust behind it. Say what you will, but they have so much personality and so much presence about them. Absolutely excellent. Well done on getting it fixed!

[@d.r.4453]

I've always liked the look of the T-72/80/90 series of tanks. Glad you got yours up and running! You guys are magicians when it comes to getting these old warhorses working again. I hope we get to see more of the T-72 in future videos. Well done fellas!
