That was useful!
What I got from it was...
1. It's confirmed that
LAHAT launcher system carries
12 missiles with a
semi-carousal auto loader, the system is more compact then I thought and appears
might not in fact impact other main gun ammo supply. This of course
might affects in real terms the Indian
ARJUN Mk-1A and certainly the most recent versions of the Israel's
MERKAVA. At
4:05 point.
2. ABRAMs never has the armor penetrated by an
ATGW.
RPG's is another story, until
TUSK came along.
3. CHALLENGER 2 are we possibly under representing it's armor? If I remember (Should've made a "
real" note.) correctly one took
15 RPG hits with
no armor penetrations' during Iraqi Freedom Ops.
4. Looks like from the video South Koreas
K2 is also equipped now with the
KASAM II Smart Top Attack ammo. I believe with the modifications we made
last year to the
K2 PIP we allowed for this ammo. The ref. last para offers some performance data...

5. LeClerc is really fast!
Don't think I missed anything, but, I'm sure someone will tell me if I did.!?!
