back onto the tank topic...

i believe that, regardless of what tank is "better" than the other, it doesnt outpace others to the point that anybody inside will annihilate anything opposing it. the tank crew inside is what truly counts.  Although American did achieve fire superiority in Iraq, it was our tank crews and their training that won the conflict. the Iraq army made of conscripts and Syrian mercenaries, had low morale after the first thousand were destroyed. many people were citizen soldiers, being forced to fight for a cause that was unclear even to top brass.

as i begin to ramble, just get the point - its the man (or women), NOT the machine, that win wars

Agree i live in fucken country that isn't even known by lots of people . But 15 years ago it was a part of great country .  Now - it sucks , because of fucken stupid goverment who doesn't understand priorityes , tryes to integrate into Europe (who doesn't need us or need as a cheap workers or market where they can sell their fucking goods) .
You dont remember any victories of my country because it wasn't in any war action since first twenty years of 18th Sentury . It became a part of Russian Empire , then , after 1917th revolution a part of USSR and one of it's republics . So Ukraine's name wasn't mentioned .
Agree , US army didn't loss Vietnam . But USSR also didn't loss Afganistan war , but even my com-patriots think we loose it . It's all because fucken politics .
So in military way that wasn't loss , but in all others - it was .

Clibby
Agree , in future wars there would be no tanks as they are now . The last stardant gun will be 150mm gun , after this - new types of tank armanent will apear .
Also the main armored vehicle in the army will be APC , which will become much stronger , carrying better armor and 50-70mm automatic gun .

R0lyP0ly
Agree with your second post , the most expensive part of every vehicle is it's crew . If u have no well-trained crew , even the most better jet\heli\tank\ship will be destroed by older one , but driven by skilled crew .

p.s. Sorry for offtopic , let's return to tanks

superslim you do more harm than good by ignorantly yelling USA all the way. although the US is undoubtedly a world superpower, it isn't the best in all respects.

Dont get me wrong, I am a patriot and do plan to serve my country, but Im not the crazed lunatic proclaiming that his or her opinion is the truth, regardless of no factual background

I would like to remind all that it was an American pilot, Gary Powers, that was shot down in a u2 while SPYING on the RUSSIANS.

PS about that anti ballisitic missile thing, i believe American has these big metal things called umm...hmmm...what was it...oh yea, AIRPLANES!!!, that will untercept these country killers and eliminate them via Phoenix missile, etc. Might not be as refined as you think it is, but it works, and that is american patriotism at its best - taking your life to save a million others....think about it

although yes, it may have been an overvocalized minority, it was loud enough to pressure the white house administration to pull out. if you have true factual information, please post and enlighten us all

No moder MBT can take a hit from a nother MBT. And by the way a T-72/80 is not a "Modern Tank" all it has is a big gun. that isent realy accurate.

Maybe yes?? Maybe not... However, I have to remind you that when ever there is a world disaster, who do they call on??? USA, where is the USA, where is the relief?? So, to that end, yes the USA is a super power but also a big brother to almost every other country on the planet. You should be proud however, it pisses me off with all the USA bashing. No one is perfect, that is a fact, and really, compared to other countries..what is really wrong with the USA???

***Did the US spy on russia to see if they were onto something we could change to suit our purposes? YES

actually I am positive (and kinda, but not really conveys no message at all).  Try http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/cold.war/ex … eployment/ under the "nuclear club", nuclear nations subheadings. You find that the US has 12,000 warheads, which is a lot. Then check Russia, which has 22,500 warheads. almost twice that of US. let that sink in... then tell me that Russians didnt believe in quantity.
