I bet the germans do supply modern tank shells (and other equipment) with their tanks... unlike them americans (capitalist dogs *shakes fist*) and ruskies :D
Yeah, the Americans stripped half the equipment from their Abrams when they gave them to us and called it a different model.
Better that way, you wouldn't want to give a random country a nuke would you?
You can't honestly compare a tank to a nuke.
No but I can compare it to Uranium shells.
These don't exist. If you mean DEPLTETED urainium, these aren't what you think they are.
aka highly alpha-radioactive uranium 238 which in turn becomes plutonium, which is ofcourse highly radioactive to.
if you're hit by shrapnel from one of those you'll meet the same death as Aleksandr Litvinenko.
Meh Tungsten cores are still better if more expensive, but hey so is war.
DU shells aren't the best option, definetly not the best for being friendly to the environment.
hmm, americans dont supply modern shells? depleted uranium?
I'm assuming he means for export variants, the US obviously has modern equipment for its own tanks.
yeah, the russians tanks are sold with solid steel shots, and the americans sell their tanks stripped without the special armour
Aircrafts are selled without computers or radars :p
I can already imagine "Here our great allies the technical wonder that is the f22, of course out of safety concerns we can't supply them to you with any ammunition, or on board equipment. It's basically a third generation fighter for a cost of a fifth gen one! How can you say no to a deal like that?"
