[@KorianHUN]

IRL they are trained on it and don't drive like geriatric bosnian grandmas put in a tank with chinese labels on all switches.

[@gattonero2915]

IRL, novice tankers move up in ranks, and along with it their position. the lowest rank of a 19k officer would be positioned in Driver position first. Climbing his rank also meant that he switches his station - from driver, then to loader, then to gunner, then finaly to TC. TC would have the best mechanical experience comapred to their other crew members onboard the said tanks and this concept is pretty universal in any military vehicle trainings all over the world lol.

[@gavinjenkins899]

@@KorianHUN He is trained on it, he's able to physically drive the tank and knows where the controls are. But he's realistically bad at it. Some countries may start everyone as drives some might not, even if one does, it's been a long time since you did the job, you will be worse at it.

[@NMJZ]

​@@gattonero2915You're correct, but one small error. 19K is an enlisted MOS in the US Army. Enlisted service members progress the way you mentioned. AR(Armor) officers are always TCs, regardless how well or not they are trained on other stations.

Hey Spookston, I suggest you try the Type 10 / TKX, it's pretty cool to use the suspension to shoot over hills, and you have 615mm pen APFSDS with 4 seconds reload, plus it can reach 70 km/h reversing.

[@temporarysam5657]

i heard you hate british vehicles, vehicles that do no damage and vehicles that are basically CAS magnets, so i think you should play the ratel 90; a gigantic british light tank with no armor, that only gets 90mm HEAT with a 7 second aced reload and that somehow always gets strafed by planes before it's even allowed to leave spawn (day 72)

[@Kris-nj8ld]

Spookston after killing everyone around him: "Seems like their whole team went to the other side of the map [...] that's very strange"

[@schmeerg]

The reason Germany stopped putting armour on their vehicles is because the thought was that with the advent of HEAT and APFSDS being able to go through an incredible amount of armour, armour was considered mostly obsolete and so they decided to focus more on mobility.

[@matthiuskoenig3378]

it wasn't just because of HEAT potentially making all steel armour obsolete, it was also just the fact that even useful armour becomes obsolete very quickly. its cheaper to keep a mobile tank relatively mobile than keeping an armoured tank relatively armoured, as mobility tech increases slower than the armour/firepower arms race. its why the primary factor of the leopard 2 getting good armour was the fact it didn't sacrifice much tactical mobility for it (and even then until the cold war reduced budgets they also wanted a lightly armoured tank for strategic mobility)

2:17 the delay is real... but it happens to me sometimes too sometimes it says "Critical Hit" and 0.5s later "Target Destroyed"... it happens much more with apfsds because the dart travels so far inside the tank and destroys more modules on its way

Having played Nuclear Option a bunch, which often involves dropping 1.5kt gravity bombs from subsonic jets, if it has an impact delay fuse it's fine(tm) in NO you also frequently drop 250kt weapons from the same, subsonic, attacker; a 16 second delay is more than long enough to outrun the blast wave
