But what's the point; just to say they did? i think it's to condition them to the most extreme situations to put explosives on stopped tanks don't know SU-25 missions [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilde Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 It's retarded if you ask me. Someone watched Private Ryan too often there. There is no reasonable way to destroy a tank like that. And you'd be risking to be where your anti-tank units are aiming at. Nobody would do that in real combat conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its easiest to knock the treads off of tanks, its about an effective kill as destroying it. Javelins, Dragons, TOWs, and anything else can always run out or become fouled. Planting mines or demolitions on tanks at any opportunity works just fine. You just have to be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan i was takling at the conditional myself . maybe it was just to condition the men to the tanks presence and take the opportunity to make them do something unusual they'll talk about on leave and by doing this will consolidate the team spirit don't know .

TangoRomeo Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Guess it's just to familiarize them with the sights and sounds of a tank close up, trying to take some of the fear that is involved. Tanks were destroyed that way in WW2, and probably very recently. Not only the Wehrmacht did a training film showing how the common infantry soldier can disable enemy tanks that had broken through the lines, using dedicated or makeshift AT weapons. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-g5sg4IrwY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
