Comments by "" (@TheArklyte) on "Call of Duty Ghosts tank mission cringe | WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!" video.
That's why a certain country keeps its tanks around 40 tons. Mi-12 and T-64 make a fun duo;)

@olivialambert4124 "Why would anyone drop a tank from orbit? That is the most absurd statement I've ever heard." Because you chose to spin it that way. I was merely pointing out capabilities of modern technology. It all started with the fact that you've mistaken the use of transport skids with paradropping. The point of such platforms is to limit the time the plane is present in dangerous zone as well as being able to use airstrips and landing zones not fit for bigger transport aircraft either to their low quality or due to being simply too short. But it is not paradropping. The actual vehicle paradrop methods are very well practiced with BMD series of vehicles. It requires a whole system of solutions like drogue chutes, normal chutes, braking rockets, specially designed for the task suspension and landing platform to implement, but it's a working system. Nowadays it's limited to roughly 20 tons. Is there a technical limitation that stops us from landing heavier weights like 40 or even 60 tons tanks? Nope. Just budget and developement time. I've mentioned why. I've also mentioned Mi-12 and T-64 combo in case tank might require an airlift. Different problem, but still possible to do. Instead you decided to spin the context of my comment to ridicule and insult me. What should I say to that? I'd prefer to say goodb... just bye.

@olivialambert4124 how heavy will Starship on return? And it'll be dropping from orbit. There is no technical impossibility there, just lack of funding and dedicated design bureau. People have already pointed out half the problems you'd get as well as solutions to them.

@dreadpiraterobertsii4420 that wasn't an MBT though. It was 50 ton away.
