LMAO!! hes preaty accurate with it too

Artillery piece with HE-VT? Nah that's a superheavy SPAA

[@n1thecaptain965]

This thing looks so much like a crossout vehicle, it's like the designers just built something in that game, then asked themselves "ok so how do we make this a thing IRL?"

[@hammer1349]

Battle 360?

[@ZenosOsgorma]

Thin profile from the front at a distance. Slight downward slope, not too much to be exposed try to avoid getting hit on turret and from front, it's odd because hitting this thing centre mass does so little damage. But hit it front on and or side of turret shells go right through. I avoud taking more than 15 shells, because I don't want ammo in the nose. Just remember it's a desert tank, stay far far away from the main battle, even further than you usually go with a sniper tank. This thing can shoot 2km easy to 5km xd if you set your sights manually.

[@user-gx6tu3mf4k]

@@ZenosOsgorma 17 shell's is max amount you can take without shell's in front. Also, if you didnt know, the proxy shell works on tanks, after 300 metres you can top down people.

[@joebloggs7514]

I had a small duel with one of these whilst in a Huey cobra. I had no rockets left with only mini guns in the turret (near stock is fun) and suddenly sighted him on my teams flank, I ended up about 1-2 meters above him trying to get him with the mini guns whilst he tried to shoot me. I have never been so surprised when this things barrel elevated so much, and it turned into a game of me trying to stay directly above him whilst he tried to bring his gun to bear. Actually saw a massive HE round fly just past my tail from him just before a friendly got him.

[@112-f6k]

Hi Bo I'm from South Africa and my dad used this vehicle on the boder during Angola Conflict

All I could think of while durning this video is “I had a transformer of that” and after some looking, there was a transformer based off of the g6 rhino. His name was big shot Also great video as always. Your vids are one of the places I can usually count on going for a good laugh.

[@fozzylozzy1131]

@@user-gx6tu3mf4k Proxy shell is completely unreliable for that, the Type-75 has a PF shell. Plus the PF shell is awful to have loaded for to kill a tank, if you forget and aim for the side it will do nothing as just bounces off and a lot of 7.0-8.0 tanks have tough enough roof armour that only a PF shell inches above the tank will work, considering its a 3metre radius its one hell of a finnicky thing to use.

[@Tentacl]

Arty without indirect fire makes me a sad panda.

[@justchillin329]

For everyone who doesn't know the reason behind South Africa's heavy emphasis on wheeled vehicles, its due to SA being mainly open flat land (plus it lets them drive on roads without destroying them), The SA doctrine focuses on taking advantage of this with high speed and mobility to outflank and ambush slower tracked forces of other nations. On a side note the massive wedge on the front of the G6 is to push bushes down so it can drive over.

[@kristoffermangila]

And today the most modern SPG systems today (the Swedish Archer, the Israeli ATMOS, the French CEASAR, among others) are wheeled platforms. So in many respects, the Rhino is a pioneering unit.

How to make a spitfire into a navy plane. step 1. get a G6 Rino step 2. load the VT shell step 3. fire shell at spitfire step 4. watch as wings fold upwards thus increasing the amount of space available in the hanger. results may vary depending on aircraft conversion, altitude, speed, and accuracy.
