was just fantasy. But about the issue with distance. Imo a ATGM fired from 1km+ can be theoraticaly intercepted further away from the tank if attached to a 360° sonar like detection with laser lock. From far distances, it takes a missile several seconds. For such a system it would take less then one or two second to react. Is not that far fatched and complex at all. It should be possible these days. The complexity rather lies in developing a kinetic and electronical mechanism which simultaniously interacts fast enough for multi ancle rotation.Originally Posted by moosefoot
Anyway, hel lot of firepower there against Infantry. Such a tank means very though business.
Hey guys I have a question:
Out of all the recruits who attempt to join the FSB Spetsnaz (lets say Alpha), what percentage actually pass training?
How about a unit along the lines of the 45th ORP of the VDV?
Sorry if these questions have already been asked a million times before. I'm guessing nobody knows for sure what the pass rate is, but I've been proven wrong plenty of times before so I thought I'd ask anyways. .

It's interesting that the hull front/glacis of this model looks so much like the front-end of the Object 187 (shown here in the open-air storage yard at Kubinka):

What is this? Some type of military game show?
Celebrities pretending to serve in Army. Each week they did a "mission" and the loosing team voted people off, but unlike most shows in this one after a few weeks new celebs could join teams.
From Eng page of the show "Special Mission The show is not a game, it’s a military experiment with no room for decorations and sentiments. ‘Special Mission’ contestants go through realistic combat missions at a real military base and learn what marching in soldier’s boots feels like. The show was second in The WIT’s ‘Fresh TV Around the World’ list in October, 2011."
US TV does a similar reality show now, with "Celebrities" like Todd Palin and hosted by Gen. Wesley Clark, the guy who wanted to start WW3 for Pristina Airport.
Finally ONE stupid TV fad that will never be copied for german TV.
Anyone making such a militaristic TV show in Germany would be flayed alive.
thank you for the quick answer.

Russia's got a big hard on for helicopter gunships lately.
Helicopters are to Modern Russia as the Spitfire was to WW2 Britain.
