[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Tank Loading Fail. (Page 1 of 2)
|
That vid reminds me of one of the scariest moments in my military career....
I had to load an M992 FAASV on a low-boy to move from FOB Falcon to FOB Liberty around this time in 07. The first time I got it up there, they didnt extend the arms on the side of the trailer to accommodate for the wideness of the vehicle. I was able to get it on there, but when I jumped down, I froze. The only thing keeping the FAASV on the trailer was the inside end connectors of the track.

The only think that would make the video better, is if an M1A2 pissed on it to show dominance. or we could balance things out with a flipped M1 pic... https://thatwillbuffout.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/funny-car-photos-brush-carefully-this-is-a-complete-specimen.jpg looks like a tank |

Quoted: can someone 'splain the difference between "not a tank" and "tank". c'mon now –– they both have tracks, a big gun, and weigh a lot. why are we splitting hairs here? it's a tank. it says so right on the video. ar-jedi  One is a self-propelled howitzer the other is a heavily armored cannon designed to kill tanks and dominate stuff. |
