Now you have to show the Ka-50 funnel manouver :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Okay, they need to do this again, but with the beer stein stability testing apparatus from this video.

The Military Industrial Complex…always stealing ideas from the civilian world…(or was it the other way around?)…

There is a video somewhere of T-80s drifting (and one falling over, it is pretty hilarious)…

Ah, here it is: - YouTube

@Aginor that video is hilarious.

EDIT: Ok, I see this has already been posted, but still the article gives some background.

I thought tank turrets were held on by gravity…so I was sorta expecting the turret of that T-72 to fall off. Perhaps I’m just dumb though…and will believe anything I read…

I know there were tanks for which that statement was actually true, but I am pretty sure that there are also tanks for which the statement is false.

I am no expert for tanks though, so that’s pretty much the point at which my knowledge ends.

EDIT: LOLfact: I don’t understand a single word the guys in the video are saying, but I can imagine they are probably shouting in disbelief or cursing.
