I would join if us declared war.

I wanted to be in the AF, but I have 2 things thay disqualify me
Each branch of the military poke fun at each other but probably wouldn't function without one of them
If any branch could it *would* be the Navy but they'd have to stretch their resources pretty thin.
very
I can qualify for the marines but i have to lose 10 lbs first
start running boi
i know
In other news, Russia is getting dragged into another war https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/russian-military-helicopter-shot-down-azerbaijan-forces-over-armenia-2-pilots-killed
oof
@Hot babe VK168.01 (P) Ah, the Mutant
Only 1 prototype ever made, never saw combat duty, Shemans with 76mm were good enough and Pershings as well as Chafees did well
that thing was a monster and i hated fighting that thing in WOT Blitz
Because it has a fake armor plate in WOT of 125mm thick
The real one still retaned the M6A1 Front glacis
The T1 Heavy chasse, is notorous for having stupidly weak frontal armor, and dont try angling it because the tank has cheek side angles that will be flat surfaces when you angle the vehicle
Why they ever thought bumping the gun up to a 90mm i wont know
Becsuse the issue wasnt its gun
Only thing it had going with it was its powerful radial engine and being spacious inside
76mm in some cases wasn't sufficient (i.e. Panthers and King Tigers) 90mm proved more than sufficient for those
Why do you think USSR got the 85mm and 122mm on T-34 and IS-2/JS-2?, they were punching through with enough kinetic force that even if it didn't penetrate, the spalling was ridiculously large that the crew would be incapacitated
Large cannons are brutal
ISU-152 cannon could flip over tiger 1’s
If hit at the side
It could flip a tiger? Damn, now that's an impact.
And knock off the turrets of tiger II’s
Its a Howitzer round fired by a casemate TD, what do you expect?
Didn't realize the ISU-152 had that much punch to it.
I expected a lot, but not enough to flip a tiger.
ok, thats big and all but battleship guns, wow
The largests guns on any BB was the Yamato Class with 410mm
Okay, if we're on the topic of Battleships then... Can we bring them back? I wish we still had some giants roaming the seas.
Second being Iowa with 381mm

@Large H Expensive
Don't care how expensive, I'd love to just see them again.
But, seriously. You're right, they're really expensive for what they are and other ships can do a better job.
