to find a five-man crew in a US tank. The Russian autoloader has a rather dismal record (unless you count its tendancy to periodically try to "load" the gunner into the breach... :-) Tell this to any finnish T-72 gunner and he will tell you that this is a myth. Zero gunners have been loaded into or had any body part loaded into the main gun breach. At least in here in Finland. He might also tell you that it would take some considerable dedication to get in the way of the loader. Best regs Frank

IT's been a highly amusing ****ing contest, I just wanted to say a hearty "bravo!" to the main players! Did you have anything of actual substance to add to the discussion? Nope Nope? Yep Incapable, Nope or just ignorant? Yup The next round is called "Spot the sense of humour failure".

"B2431" wrote in message ... From: "Kevin Brooks" "Drewe Manton" snip The next round is called "Spot the sense of humour failure". You've just taken the lead. I have a fine sense of humor--you just are not funny. Nothing more sad than a guy who finds himself being the only one laughing at his own misguided attempts at humor, is there? Brooks Yes there is. How about the person who started this thread who actually thinks he knows what he is talking about? True enough. The Bozo even started *another* thread supposedly wreaking havoc on my contention that the use of DU in the heavy armor upgrade of the M1A1 left it in a superior position in regards to armor protection versus the Leopard II--but he got confused and started yacking about DU APDS-FS rounds instead. Surprisingly, I have yet to hear him claim that *both* were really long-lost WWII German developments "stolen" by us eeevil 'mercans... but I am sure that is coming soon.
