db_zero Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Pretty funny-unless you happened to be one of those in the video that got your car damaged. Have to wonder if insurance would cover that-if you have any in where this took place. As for those tanks that didn't quite make it onto the transporters you have to wonder how unpleasant it was to be inside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luka Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I like these videos, reminds you that there's actual people In those tanks who can make a mistake just as easily as you can break your bumper on the driveway fence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I especially liked the one with the tanker trying to fight off the rotating gun with a stick. (Ands were all those transporters just not wide enuff? Didin't look like they should have slid off.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c3k Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Yeah, the guys messing around and playing with the main gun vs. the stick was good. But, for sheer comedy, the woman yelling at the BMP driver who had backed into the house was a classic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 The common theme I saw in this video is that Russia needs some dedicated tank transport flatbeds instead of relying upon civilian ones As someone who has tracked vehicles, and has moved them on/off trailers many times, I have to say I have never liked doing it. Too many things can go wrong.The out of control BMP at a military vehicle show is the one that makes me cringe the most.

panzersaurkrautwerfer Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Civilian transporter trucks are scary. Getting on the HETs was always a little twitchy simply because it's a somewhat delicate procedure to make sure everything is lined up right, but it's a truck designed from bumper to bumper to transport Abrams and similar vehicles, and manned by dudes who load AFVs for a living.* Some random civilian lowboy operator almost always goes through the process in which something almost breaks catastrophically, or is obviously only marginally able to accomplish mission (like adorable little wooden braces, or tracks hanging scarily off the sides of the trailer). *Especially the Korean Service Corps dudes, their ability to load/unload vehicles is almost supernatural, although their odd uniform wearing habits and mandatory smoke breaks while driving are a little odd. On the other hand once you get to the upload location, minus drivers, once you've figured out what truck you're loading on you're pretty much good to hop on the truck and go to sleep until you get to your destination. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
