  • British Army Challenger 2 tank of Bovington Armour Centre manoeuvring onto a low-loader prior to returning to its English base. It really was an incredible sight, one of the most, if not the most, notable vehicle I have spotted. Filmed in Coleraine, Northern Ireland on 24th June 2018.

      If the tank is moving, and if you're moving, you're easily detected by the enemy.
      Also, smoke is used to conceal maneuvers from the enemy while fighting, so not necessarily true.

      Adjusting the tracks on chally 2 are way easier than chally 1. You know its time to change those tracks when she starts jumping and youve adjusted the track tension to the max. Then its track bashing time. Used to love doing that on the tank park. Good times

  • @TheInvertedFollicle507
    @TheInvertedFollicle507 2 роки тому

    Sorry to be "that guy" but the vehicle depicted isn't a tank - it's a 155mm self-propelled howitzer - maybe a Paladin or AS-90. MBTs don't have their turret stretch that far to the rear, plus the mechanism about halfway along the main gun used to stabilise it when not in use that is a feature not seen on MBTs.

      Your ignorance is only outshone by your arrogance.You MUST be American,and also someone who has never ever had anything to do with tanks.That mechanism halfway along is a fume extractor,and has been a feature on British tanks for about 50+ years.The gun is over the back decks which makes movement easier,and saves the gun stabilisation system

    • @heybabycometobutthead

      The gun is pointing to the rear of the vehicle.
