| #3 Ref #1, consider a relatively small interior charge to detonate a massive, directed blast attached externally with small arms shielding precut for shrapnel effect around the turret and horizontally focused? |

| #2 Don't know how much they got in there, but the Russians did post a video of them stuffing a tank full of explosives. Don't know if it was this tank or not. One of the main things they put in there were several mine detonation lines that the UR-77 Meteorit uses. |

| #1 Seriously doubt you could fit 13,000 lbs of explosives in a tank. Regardless, a tank makes a poor VBIED since most of the explosion will be directed upwards out of the turret ring and not a lot of shrapnel is produced. |
