That's because it would reveal how much of the profits created by the workers that the corporate economists, shareholders and board executives are stealing for themselves...

+Dimes On His Eyes and more often than not, those malfunctions were the consequence of intentional random sabotage by the slave workers the nazis used to build the tanks towards the end of the war when all the men and boys somewhat able to fight had been drafted for the final push in the Ardennes and the last stand within germany's pre-war borders. Unfortunately for infantry, modern tanks are no longer that blind due to night vision and heat detecting IR-sights for the commander and gunner as well as night vision for the driver and 360 vision cameras on the hull will come in the next few years in new AFVs and as retrofits for old ones. Effectively eliminating blind spots and the need for riding with open hatches.

And an advanced version of the metric original, the 40mm/L70 probably incorporating a lot of the US production improvements is in use on the Swedish competitor to the Bradley, the Hägglunds CV9040 IFVs and AAVs.

@chaz8758 can also be used to blow up roads or bridges or other similiar infrastructure using drain pipes, sewage pipes and culverts and such to hold the charge and blocking the pipes at both ends before igniting to direct the charge upwards into the road you want to wreck. Also works to create breaches into enemy held houses if you can reach the point where the house sewer main connects to the public grid.

Martin Birgersson sucessor, not predecessor.

@gerrycrisostomo6571 and the German tanks were mostly hand fitted, often using slave labour for many components and suffering from a severe shortage in armor critical alloy ores, further increasing the production disparity even before allied strategic bombing raids are accounted for

Swedish cold war pilots were infamous for this, and many paid the price for it, not in stockades or courts, but in closed casket funerals with honours if any had been previously earned as the "deck" was only 50m over land and inhabited areas, 20m over sea in normal conditions, 10m over sea in level flight on a steady course with more than 3.5km visual range without obstacles. No speed limits outside airframe tolerances. A few pilots did get charged in court and cited for unusually reckless flying, like trick flying a jet fighter underneath public highway bridges in central Stockholm at near supersonic speed...

1-2minutes to pack up and gtfo 500m away.

@marksolarz3756 Most magnetic triggered mines have built in anti-tampering triggers.

@JohnJ469 most workers who would benefit from the knowledge don't have the time or provision to realise that's even a possibility. And, even those who do manage to find that raw data doesn't nessesarily have the skill to interpret and understand what they have found as they haven't trained how to read an economic spreadsheet or corporate budget meeting protocol. You don't get to learn those skills in grade schools or public high schools...

Matyas Grohmann Strv m41 (there are some important differences to the 38(t)

 @revolvolution7372 close, it's an APC built on a repurposed Strv(tank) m/41 chassi, which was a Licence built Swedish variant of the Pz38(t) with a Volvo gasoline engine.

On a licence built Swedish version of the Pz38(t) chassis, yes.

@jacklarkson4505 the 40mm was too big and cumbersome to mount in armored combat vehicles before Hägglunds and Bofors developed the turret to the Strf9040 and Lvkv9040 in the late 1980ies where the updated 40mm/L70 gun was fitted with tripple slot single stack magasines and flipped the gun mechanism upside down. Prior to that, only the Lvkv m/41 and the VEAK prototype had been fitted with the 40mm/L60, in the m/41 as a manually loaded and aimed SPAAG, and in the VEAK in a motorised radar assisted SPAAG prototype that never entered service.

The Pbv301 was not an IFV in any way, it was an APC armored for stopping nothing heavier than Soviet 14.5mm API-T rounds on a licence built Pz38(t) carriage...

@montysmith6355 if it works for you, keep doing it :) I always keep a shovel and some other essentials in the trunk.

@Blockhaj att kalla pbv301 för ett stridsfordon är väl ändå lite väl generöst utifrån skyddsnivån. Tom. dess ersättare, Hägglunds pbv302 är tveksamt om det går att klassa som stridsfordon pga den låga skyddsnivån på bepansringen. (Även om den är betydligt bättre skyddad och beväpnad än både Jänkarnas, Britternas och Moskeviternas motsvarigheter från samma tid.)

@kjelllindberg6987 and I'm pretty confident Bofors got access to the US production improvements after the war and included a lot of them into the production lines for the m48/L70 upgrade
1
Iirc, it was intended to stop a Soviet 14.5mm AT rifle API-T round from the front and 7.62×54R API-T rounds from the sides and rear.

@JohnJ469 I'm speaking from my own experience and observations of colleagues as a worker who just had the luck to have had academic parents. If people find life hard just worrying about how to pay the next round of essential bills, most of them will see it as a wasted effort to even try to get a bigger picture regardless if that might show a way out to something better as they fear to not see the next personal emergency coming their way. I used to be a waste water treatment process tech. I'm currently employed driving a taxi, and, I would expect that while the status quo is bad enough in Northern Europe, the situation for US trapped peers is way worse.

There are no "unskilled" workers, those are apprentices/students.
