Libyan rebel T-55 in action, takes a hit [video]
Libyan rebel T-55 cruising around. Fast forward to 0:55 to see it start firing its main gun. There sure are a lot of guys standing around...I wouldn't be around a tank, it's the biggest target on the battlefield and is going to draw fire. At the end the tank takes a hit from somewhere. Kind of looks fake...a hit from an ATG wouldn't look like that, right? Looks like a detonation from inside the tank. The tank doesn't have an autoloader, which mean four men are operating the vehicle, so it gets crowded inside a tank with poorly trained personnel trying to operate relatively sophisticated equipment.. It could happen. Not to mention all the Insh'allan maintenance from the time the tank arrived on the quay in Tripoli all those years ago to the day of this video. Posted by: gromky 2011-12-29 |
