  1. For the first time ever this episode is available with both French and Spanish voice overs. We have also made a sound effect and music free dub under “English (Ireland)” for anyone they prefers the most pure version of my voice 😂

  2. hahaha…. a few hundred dollar drone could render it useless… a few drones will make it a scrap metal …. its nice when tested with enemies which do not have weapon capabilities…. all these wonderful claims…. same as the challenger tank, and panther tank… even the russian tanks..

  3. With the M1, why not use a suspension system similar to what they use in low rider cars. Essentially air bags that could be adjusted to change the entire height profile.

  4. The hydra gas suspension is an interesting idea…. my father's 1965 Citroen DS19 had it. 😉 Instead of changing gas pressure, they could change the pressure on the hydraulic fluid in the system.

  5. The crazy thing with these machines are they aren’t just mothballed after a few years of use. They are sent to factories and completely overhauled and upgraded and sent back looking almost brand new. We definitely have an incredible infrastructure for our machines of war (aka the military industrial complex).

  6. Well, these other "conventional" engines probably use direct injection. Which in theory would allow you to run on gasoline or kerosine if the rest of the engine is adapted. If not, those fuels can be mixed with diesel to avoid it being gel in the cold. Also, diesel by itselfs with additives can withstand almost -40 degrees celsius.

    In other words, mix diesel with gasoline and it can run in the cold too.

  7. The reason that the United States is able to make the claims that it does about the M1 MBT, is definitely not because of the super advances and hush hush geqr the tank has. Rather it falls heavily into the laps of our highly trained tank crews and the tactics, doctrine, and training experience all rolled up into a serious killing machine!

  8. "As Diesel can act as an additional layer of armor"
    Commander: "Whats wrong private?"
    Private: "Well Sir, the diesel stopped the shell, but the engine blew up and now our tanks on fire."
