It would be a tough job to clean that tank.

What would a crew do in a situation like this.


say, they just trashed their tank, not in a combat situation, do they just issue another tank and send you on your way?

spend a week cleaning the thing?

make you peel potatos for the duration of the conflict?

I think the whole crew drowned when he drove off a bridge.
There was also a crew that drowned when the drivere was shot and the tank continued off a bridge.

What all is involved with something like that? How does cleanup go? Are the electronics waterproof, or does a sunk tank mean a new set of electronics and optics?

That's why you always take out the damage waiver.  If you total it, they just bring you a new one.
