    to answer your question in the video: M60s and M46s weren't deployed in Vietnam - the M46 had already been mostly superseded by the M48, while the M60 was seen as too valuable and too new to deploy in Vietnam, and was kept on the border in Europe instead. meanwhile, the ARVN (south vietnamese) made use of shermans and M41s.
    M46s /were/ used in the korean war, however

    • @BDP0408

      By the time of the Vietnam war the Sherman had been phased out. It was used in the war in Indochina in the 50s, but by the time of US involvement it had been replaced so ARVN never used it

    • @azellaaaaa
      @azellaaaaa 8 місяців тому +1

      @@BDP0408 The ARVN was still using the Sherman while the US was involved and even after it, but it wasn't in the same sorts of numbers that they were at the beginning. They mostly moved to a rear-line / support role, in part because they started to run out of ammunition and spare parts for them (especially after the US pulled out). The M48 and M41 were simply more effective for what the ARVN wanted.
      The ARVN couldn't really afford to throw out a perfectly good tank (considering who they're fighting) like the Sherman. They had to use all of the assets they had at their disposal, and so they did.

    Don't know if anyone else has mentioned it or not yet, 90% of the tanks you see driving with their turret facing the rear are players who have set the cruise control on max, pointed themselves at the cap...and tabbed out. For some reason tabbing out of the game turns your turret 180 degrees.

    The barrage balloons works to a degree as it forces CAS out of action as they increase the flying height by alot which lowers their effective chances for a strike as the lower you go, the more risk you get yourself entangled or cut in half by the steel cables and for high altitude bombers, it too forces them to fly higher which made their aiming worse due to the extra height.

  • @Streaky100001
    @Streaky100001 8 місяців тому +1

    Hmmmm, I think not counting deaths to aircraft as the full penalty, but rather taking a 500pt hit is a smart idea. To my mind at least, a challenge like this is about tank on tank warfare, and being attacked by aircraft just sort of spoils the fun. I'd also consider treating deaths to artillery similar.
    That said, as trade for these leniencies of the rules, I'd maybe consider having it to where you're not allowed to use artillery or airstrikes either, as to make it truly tank vs tank.
    I don't think you used artillery or airstrikes in this anyways, but I'm just thinking if you do similar going forward.
    That's my suggestions anyways.

    Barrage balloons were actually incredibly effective, if you hit the cable, you were pretty much screwed. Plus, big heavy bombers aren't going to be doing lots of ducking and weaving around cables.
    With that said, I've seen some reports that say they actually downed more friendly aircraft than hostile aircraft, although it should be noted that by and large over any given period there would be more friendly aircraft in our airspace than hostile.... so..... make of it as you will.

    2. Someone could easily avoid Tank death by running and getting purposely killed by aircraft because I'm going to replicate this challenge, and I want a Souls type pain. Look, the more difficult, the less easy it is for someone to copy for their own channel.
