HSTV-L - Tank History and Review

The HSTV-L (High Survivability Test Vehicle Lightweight) was a test bed created by the US in the late 70s to early 80s. Using a gas turbine engine, hydropneumatic suspension, and fast-firing hypervelocity cannon, the HSTV-L was designed to explore the concept of an incredibly mobile and lethal tank. The HSTV-L was preceded by the HIMAG (High Mobility and Agility) test vehicle, and superseded by the RDF/LT (Rapid Deployment Force Light Tank).

The new 38 ton US light tank loses in all aspects compared to the HSTVL, the new US light tank is just a big brick for shooting practice.

Dance of the Cryptek is an amazing track. Glad someone recognizes it.

[@brycewalker7797]

I would argue that the HSTV-L and systems of the like would not actually be as expensive as you think. While they do have advanced fire control systems, they used steel and aluminum armor with high slopes. This would significantly reduce cost because you don’t have to pay for insane amounts of composite armor and ERA. Replacing the gas turbine with a diesel or turbo diesel would also cut costs. On top of all this, the lack of unnecessary “doo-dads” like a movable hydro pneumatic suspension and top mount HMG (like on the MBT 70) would also cut costs. Great video as always!

[@matthiuskoenig3378]

top mount HMGs are not unnecessary doo-dads

[@brycewalker7797]

Lord Solar Matthius they are when they add insane costs to a tank project. They also are unnecessary when the tank is being protected by Anti-aircraft vehicles and air support. They do nothing but complicate the building/design process and add cost + weight to a vehicle. Therefore yes: unnecessary doo-dads

Well, I can imagine some of the tech is wrong. For example, Bumblebee flamethrowers is not your typical flamethrower but is a thermobaric rocket. More flexible that way. And the HESH shell on tanks doesn't really fit there since its fired from a smoothbore. Better that its a thermobaric or metal-augmented charge. Then, there is the Euro's VIRCATOR shell which should be an EPG or rather a more flexible MAHEM that can potentially do both EMP and shaped charge penetration.

Not sure if many of you War Thunder folks do tabletop gaming, but the WW3/post-apocalypse game Twilight 2000 features the HSTV-L in a production mode called the "LAV-75". The game was developed in the early 1980s, and the writers assumed that the HSTV-L (which was featured in Popular Mechanics, prominently, at least once) would be adopted into service. It's iconic, it's the "+1 longsword" of the game despite not really being a match for a head-on fight against the odd T72 or T80 still roaming around on the post-nuke battlefields of the year 1999/2000.

With modern propellants, and APFSDS rounds, it's possible for a 70mm cannon to pierce modern armor. There are tank arounds that use rocket motors as well to extend range and accuracy as well. A 70mm rocket assisted tandem HEAT round might be able to pierce modern armor as well.

[@justinkedgetor5949]

Aries Autocannon is my new favourite thing to say

[@Mrfish-bc9on]

As like WT's HSTV-L is not the attended performance what US army and the company desired of. HIMAG was gun test bed, so carousel could be the gun's only autoloading compartment. But HSVT series was inital testbed of "how this gun is properly manned and be used in the field with new tactics?" So it was planned to have 60 round maximum ammo rack circled around the main gun&turret. Carousel is not the ammo rack but the one of the part of the gun. Nice research you had made the crew fill the your 'carousel' by themselves by their own hands. U.S army should rejected the HSTV-L to be made from the blueprints if the company really intended to make like that s***. You made HSTV-L HIMAG. GREAT WORK SIR

So it's basically a far cousin of OTOMATIC that has the same "it's not enough good" situation?

[@thefirstprimariscatosicari6870]

The OTOMAGIC was actually good enough. It was never accepted into service because the Cold War ended and the need for SPAAGs in Western armies became far less critical. Today they are developing a moder version, the Draco, using guided ammunition to act as a do-it-all platform.

[@SecuR0M]

No. It's a battlecruiser tank that double taps T-72s and runs away really quick. It never worked because HOTROD (a heavily modified M113 with something like 90 hp/ton PWR) showed the U.S. Army that anything more than 30 hp/ton is generally bad (in a few not-uncommon-but-not-ubiquitous soils) as some soil types will cause it to dig a trench instead of move around on the ground. HSTV-L was mostly an AAI thing by this point because the U.S. Army lost interest in HIMAG when it realized that tanks would never move fast enough to actually avoid determined counter-fire from an ambushed armor platoon. 30 hp/ton is what the M1 Abrams had when it first deployed to the US Army, so you'd about similar mobility in the light tank, and that isn't fast enough to evade countershots. So the whole "armor is useless" thing turned out to be a bad fad that passed quickly between around 1968-1972 in the USA. It ended faster in Germany because they built VT 1-2 and discovered two cannons won't let you double tap tanks and not even VT 1-2 with its retarded strong engine and lighter end weight could move fast enough to get out of the way of enemy shots. Turret traverse and the push-button rangefinder ultimately won that round.

[@rakaipikatan8922]

@@SecuR0M Wait, wait. But the HSTV-L have very fast (57 degree/sec) turret traverse, but why they rejected? Also is the gun have the same mechanic as RAVEN or something?

[@Seth9809]

@@SecuR0M You are ignoring expense and the fact that for a long time, people couldn't design a tank that could absorb 100 or 105mm guns at moderately close range AND be decently mobile.

[@SecuR0M]

Anyway since this is somewhat obscure (not really but tank nerds don't know about it) when a vehicle is moving and you miss because it suddenly changes direction or speed and throws off your lead or whatever, this is called target induced error. The idea behind HIMAG/ACVT/HSTV-L (really, HIMAG was a part of ACVT, which also included HOTROD [not an acronym], and HSTV-L was along similar lines but separate since it was a private industry design) was that the vehicle would move fast enough to respond to gunfire to cause target induced error. This would require absurd amounts of acceleration (for a tank) and attentive drivers who would be cued by gunfire detectors or something to move. Or a computer hits the brakes and throws the crew forward and possibly out of their seats. DARPA brought the idea back a few years ago with one of their dumb idea tanks i.e. Ground X-Vehicle or something. It went nowhere, naturally, as ACVT did, for much the same reasons: target induced error is hard to make practical when dealing with hypervelocity ammunition like sabots. When something can cover 1-2 kilometers in about a second, give or take half a second, then you need a robotic controlled system. This is what ACVT found out. Ground X-Vehicle probably figured computers are smart enough now to do it, but then they found out that it requires a bit too much acceleration to dodge a tank shell fired at a kilometer or so and probably gave up. It was also supposed to be fast enough to make gunsight tracking hard, but this is literally impossible for a main battle tank (HOTROD was a good attempt though, trench digging aside). Or any ground vehicle. A helicopter gunship, a particularly fast one (like RAH-66 or Mi-24), can just about do it, to slower moving turret drives like found on ZSU-23-4 (40 degrees/second traverse drive). Against a faster turret drive, closer to 60 degrees/second (like 2K22), it would be sorta fucked though. And finally it was just going to be generally fast to reduce exposure time, because it's skirting around at like 40-50 miles per hour instead of a more stately 10-15 miles an hour, open country. What ACVT ultimately found was that 29 hp/ton at the sprocket (comparable to HOTROD, actually) is a reasonable sprocket PWR ratio for the time being (barring some massive improvements in automotives, which hasn't materialized yet c. 2020), given tanks of sufficient flotation (read: track width) and the limits of railway gauges (3.6 meters in the standard gauge) being among the prime factors. Wider tanks (Song for Denise tier) could possibly handle higher PWRs, but may not move faster. It also found that improvements in sprocket power transmission would be helpful even in weak soils where trench digging became apparent. With that in mind, M1 has a gross PWR of ~27, but I don't know what the sprocket PWR is. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume it's close to around 15-18 hp/t, though. Probably edging towards the lower bound of that. Conversely, M60A1 had a sprocket pwr of 8.9 hp/t and a gross of like 15.

[@parabellum2674]

I think of the HSTV-L and its counterparts as where armored vehicle design would go in the case of an alien invasion boasting superior technology. Not because of the looks, but because of the fast mobility, light armor, high firepower in the rate of fire and penetration, and electronic warfare.

Everytime I hear "HEAT and APFSDS make tanks obsolete now" I think "oh, so then bullets exist so people are obsolete", or "missiles exist, so planes are obsolete", or "aircraft carriers exist so surface ships are obsolete". When a new system comes into play that counters an older one, it doesn't make it obsolete, just makes it challenged in that domain and no longer having god-tier status there.

[@arewethereyet7461]

They became obsolete anyway. Soldiers started wearing more advanced gear and tacticts to avoid being shot. Planes needed to change their way to fight and also implement new things like flares.
