The scenario is of course pretty much a joke already. "You stand there undetected at perfect range for you and no one else is around." Why even make up such a scenario? Could turn it aruond. "Yeah, you are dead, because a tank sneaked up on you and shot you right in the face. Hu."

Nazis are known for murdering PoW anyway, not all of them. Even the mercenaries talk about that - though some of them, especially US americans, often Nazis themselves, are not any better. When you are the frontline and you shoot, you will get destroyed anyway. It's actually absurd enough to get into such a situation in the first place, but, well, it's not impossible.

You have to be more specific to begin with. There isn't just ONE Abrams and ONE T-72 model. There are many, many different variants. Also: tanks near to never fight other tanks nowadays.

No trouble? No. The idea of one shot one kill is something you should get out of your mind, does not work that way.

US army made an analysis. In training conditions the hit rate was about 20%. Hit - not destroyed. This for sure includes malfunction. That was inside US military and just training, not real combat and in the hand of some guys who never trained with it in the first place.

@SerialElfYT US military stuff falls apart all the time...

What kind of scenario is this even? You do get, that this wouldn't just be some tanks driving in, right? You would have all kind of surveilance in that area, drone and missile attacks from far away and the tanks likely just holding the line and supporting infantery in second line, for sure not just driving in. If you think you could just stand there and wait for them till they drive by... this is not a video game.

Your biggest problem isn't that one unit you see, but the hundreds of other units you don't. If you are in this situation you will likely die any second anyway, so, yeah, don't think about it too much how you want to end your life and be judged for.

The tanks aren't even your problem. The drones are, and helicopters, and artillers, and satelites, and jets, and misiles systems and infantery with better stuff than that TOW and THEN the tanks on top. Why do you think NATO is so desperate to send in more stuff? Because everything is going so well?

@RyanMcBethProgramming In that situation you are likely dead anyway, absurd enogh to even get in that situation, but since the Banderas Nazis love to hide even inside buildings, well, not impossible.

You kids and your ideas that this is like a video game...

It's not unusual to see those, because it's all you guys get shown on social media, often enough even just an arleady ruined tanked they shoot at for a PR video. And even the real 'victories' are made somewhere far beside the frontlines, so overall just a pointless death that got zero impact on the war. When you want to win a war, you must destroy the enemies main fighting force. To just pick up some guys at the corners won't bring you far.

Following our NATO propaganda, Russiand can create highly effective weapons out of washing machines, so better not fool around with such dangerou things.

@92Psyco No, the Iraqis used rusty crap in comparison and had half their country and 90% of their army destroyed by carpet bombing, before such scenarios, kid. What by the way also killed tenthousands civilians, more civilians than soldiers. We talk about over 100.000 sorties and around 90.000 tons of bombs dropped on the country, obliterating military and civil infrastructure before even one soldier set foot on the ground in Iraq.. This was followed by brutal artillery bombardement of just as many attacks. This was followed by a gigantic role of combined armed forces, including A-10, which alone destroyed around 900 tanks, and over 2000 armored vehicles and ~1200 artillery. They idea, to just take a Bradley out of this situation and that this pile of old crap could work just as well on its own as with this gigantic slaughter is simply ridiculous. The majority of Iraws tanks were T-55 anyway, with the T-72 without pretty much anything what you find in and on a Russian one today. The Iraqi T-72 Lion got an effective firing range of around 1800m - plus all the other problems on top of that, combing from the collaps of the infrastructure, communication and so on. Russian T-72 got a firing range of 3000-5000m and that's just the range difference of the gun alone, what alone is already massive.

Then get blown up by the hundreds of other units from which 90% you can't even see. That's the problem with your video games, they are complete bullshit.

Ukraine is using them en mass. Russia seems to have given some of them to the Donbass militia people, since having an old tank is better for an infantery unit than having no tank, when it comes to defending some side lines.

You mean, you see Nazi PR videos, eh? What shall they show? They don't have the technology to fake giant battles. But it's easy to film how they shoot oat one of their burned owned tanks and sell this to some idiots on the internet.
