Sgt. Bilko (1996) - The Hover Tank Con Scene | Movieclips

[@dukoth6552]

when you realize the bad guy in this scene tried to stop a rigged demonstration and prevent a critically flawed piece of equipment from being rushed into production while trying to expose a incompetent commander and a corrupt sergeant, the military industrial complex people

[@majordbag2]

Really more a super uptight officer getting bamboozled by a laid back career NCO milking the army for easy money being played for laughs. While guys like Bilko do exist in government, in real life they don't actually cost society anywhere near as much as retire high ranking officers turned lobbyists or super-pacs backed by multi-billion dollar corporations which are the actual military industrial complex.

I have to say, the CGI held up really surprisingly well for a movie that's nearly 30 years old.

[@TheNitroG1]

For context, this is a movie that came out the same year as twister and independence day, 3 years after Jurassic park...So, I'm going to have to disagree. They look passible for 1996 comedy film budget special effects. But even if we go by that standard with mars attacks, it's not as good and mars attacks effect wise and that movie had a bunch more effects shots to eat up the budget.

Well the tank doesn't fire, ok. But it's a truly hovertank. I mean, it really floating... That's actually the most important achievement.

[@willtor]

Right. I feel like if we're focused on the turret, we're missing the forest for the trees, here. The turret is literally the conventional technology.

[@yuridavila6095]

Hover ability would be extremely important in Ukraine right now to cross muddy terrain, swamps, rivers and minefields. It doesn't need to hover 100% of the time, only to transport itself into the position, then it can stay on the ground and fire like a regular tank. This alone would make the tank 100x more valuable.

[@danielefabbro822]

@@yuridavila6095 well unfortunately we are talking about a thank. And that's the main problem. A real tank weights around 60-70 tons. Hovercrafts can float because of a complex ratio between the power produced, the area under the tank to cover, the fact it have to be covered in order to produce the lifting push... In short, a complex thing. Lifting a tank of 70 tons without even covering the area under it (so it have to produce an even greater power) means that the engines on that thing should be extremely powerful, stuff able to make the tank run 200 km/h or more. And to push 70 tons at that speed, you really needs lots of horsepower. So many that probably you should put multiple engines on it in order to match the power needed. At that point however, you don't have anymore space on the tank to place a gun, sensors, rounds depot, the crew and so on. So you should make it bigger for that purpose... But that will just require more power to make it fly. In short I don't think it's impossible but I think that such work will definitely require an hell of attention in the design and equal time on test trials to become something acceptable. After that, if they succeed, the hovertank will be so complex and costly that... well... Ukrainians unfortunately would not be able to manner it. 😑

[@IMAN7THRYLOS]

In theory you could do it. It would just have to be made of aluminium and Kevlar. No steel, no composite materials. As far as the gun, it would need to be a tube that would be firing recoil less rounds, or an autocannon. Regardless, it would have poor survivability, limited firepower and it would have very limited usefulness in a battlefield, like traversing over minefields.

[@davidoliver7510]

Hovercraft with a gun is technically a hover tank. Would actually work over minefields as it would be above the mines. And not actually touching them. But wouldn't be a real tank. As it would need to be made from lightweight materials that offers hardly any protection. But if they can go really fast. Then the only protection would be. Hard to hit

[@Rapscallion2009]

I suppose it would be possible with a hovercraft-type arrangement, but why would you want to? It would be truly interesting when you fired the big gun. The bloody thing would take off backward!

Well one thing that occurred to me is with no counter forces from contact with the ground, firing the main weapon would push the tank backwards in an unpredictable manner, potentially even flip it over at certain firing angles.
