Tank PL-01 idea invented by Polish businesses and a large English company. The tank has a unique look and can be completely changed around to fit the user's preference. Tank and men The tank is not a heavy construction that has a goal of fighting other vehicles in combat. The PL-01 lets 3 crew to be seated inside the vehicle, which allows for more armor against outside threats like explosives and mines. It has a new age, ceramic armor that has many different layers. New hybrid The tank will use steel or rubber tracks to move along the ground, with a drive that is powered by an engine that is a hybrid. The vehicle can drive at fast speeds wherever it pleases. It can easily go through water as well. Lots of firing options The tower has modules, and it allows for a mount that has an auto ammo feed system located on the backside of the tower. It also has a machine gun and a selection of weapons that can be controlled by remote, plus a larger calibre rifle and a grenade launcher. It is both ready to fight at night and during the day. It lets the drivers observe enemies during the day and night. There will also be an auto detection system for missiles and for partnered forces. Everything will be connected to one system which will be the head behind the guns. This is one of the most powerful tanks out there. The Polish tank PL-01 will begin being manufactured near 2020.
Most of the German and Russian weapons that were used to destroy tanks during the Second World War didn't have turrets, but some of the English and American weapons did. Most of the tank destroyers had the same size gun that tanks had, but at a less expensive cost. These tank destroyers did their job well against tanks, but when it came to going up against soldiers on foot they were very ineffective. Below you'll find a list of the top ten tank destroyers in the world. They have been scored based on how well their armor protects them, speed, the power of the main gun, and their experience on the field of battle.
The IS-3 or the Iosef Stalin (Joseph Stalin) IS3 was part of a series of tanks that served Soviet Army during the WWII. The whole series was based upon the KV tanks and began with the IS-1 that was produced in the year 1943. The IS-2 came next during the very same year. The IS-2 came fitted with the 122, main gun - a lethal weapon indeed. The IS-3 was developed afterwards because the Soviets were convinced of its value. The IS-3 modifications were a re-design of the whole series. For instance, the armor protection of the IS-3 is the best of the lot. This tank has better turret armor protection than its predecessors and is thus a safer machine to operate overall. The armor of the whole series was already a stand out. There were other modifications made on the turret. It was well-rounded and there was more space for the turret crew. Additional projectiles were also given ample space. For better protection from ballistics, the glacis plate had increased slope. The combined modifications on the turret and hull resulted in a lowered silhouette. This made the tank more difficult to track and target from any given angle. The chief armament of the IS-3 was the 122mm (121.9mm). This was infamous during the war for its excellent penetration capacity and the flexibility that came with it. Expert crew can let off from 2-3 rounds every minute. The projectile choices were expanded as well to include 10 AP or armor-piercing rounds. In addition, there were 18 HE or high-explosive fragmentation. The IS-3 was capable of facilitating battlefield targets. In October, 1944 the IS-3 prototype was designated as "Object 703." After a very short while and a series of evaluations this was approved for production. Factories in the Soviet Union capable of constructing heavy vehicles were soon busy with construction. The very first operational IS-3 tanks were entered into the inventory of the Soviet Red Army on May, 1945. The IS-3 appeared in the victory parade through the city of Berlin on 7th of September, however, it did not see much action at the front because the war in Europe was mostly over. Adolf Hitler had taken his life and the German capital has fallen under the control of the Soviet Army. Only a few pockets of the German war machine were still continuing the fight, so not much left to deal with. But it was different in the Pacific because the Soviets were still fighting against Japan. It was said that an IS-3 regiment was deployed in August 1945 in the Far East (mission unknown). By the end of that month the Japanese empire would surrender signaling the end of the war in the Pacific and WWII. At the time that the Second World War ended, the IS-3 was the most advanced war vehicle of its kind. The Soviets continued producing the IS-3 until mid-1946. About 2,311 units were completed. All the IS-3s in existence were inventoried by the Red Army. The tanks were in the Soviet stockades (it's allies as well) during the years of the Cold War. Even the Western powers had their eye on the IS-3 especially because this tank was a key influence in Soviet tank design in the twenty years that followed. The IS-3 has a distinctively stout, low-set profile with a curved turret. Somehow its appearance recalls that of an upside-down frying pan. The rifled barrel is long with muzzle break that is double-baffled. The side track on either side has 6 road wheels. The drive sprocket is aft with 3 track return rollers and the idler is held in forward position. The rear compartment is where the V2-IS engine is located while the turret is forward. The heavy chassis was powered by the 520 horsepower engine capable of a top speed of 25 mph. Its range is 115 miles. The IS-3 weighs about 45.77 tons, was 32 feet, 4 inches long and eight feet high. It can be operated by four personnel. The entire tank body was protected by 20mm - 230mm thick armor which would make it nine inches at the thickest areas. Aside from the armor, the IS-3 was equipped with the D-25T series main gun (121.9mm) and was formidable indeed. Enemy forces loathed attacking it from the front. Its primary weapons were 28 rounds of projectiles (122mm). The secondary armament was a 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun which carried 250 rounds. The IS-3 also had one to two 7.62mm anti-infantry machine guns which carried 756 rounds. The IS-3's design was a step forward in a number of areas. However, it was still beset with mechanical problems much like other heavy tanks of that size. With regard to its operational abilities, the power pack was very unreliable. The transmission systems and engine were both prone to failure. These defects as well as a few matters concerning the hull were possibly due to the speed by which the Soviets pushed for its design & production. It is therefore not surprising that quality control problems would arise. Because of these limitations, a set of upgrades were done, intended to improve certain areas. Some of the improvements made were on the clutch mechanism, road wheels, and new radio equipment. The improvements added to the total weight of the tank by four tons and this additional burden hampered the IS-3's performance a bit. The Red Army made good use of the IS-3 from the late 1940s until well into the '50s. During the Cold war, the tank underwent a modernization scheme that helped maintain its relevance. After all, its initial design was meant for the World War 2 stage and the Cold War was very different. A number of modern thoroughbreds eventually succeeded the IS-3 and this formidable war machine was soon retired to the history books. Nevertheless, before her time was ended, the IS-3 served a few foreign armies. Egypt was known to favor the IS-3 and even showcased the tank on parades as seen in 1956. The Israeli military captured a few units and these were reconstituted for use of the IDF. The IDF retrofitted the IS-3 with engines from the T54 tanks. The modification improved the performance level for the IDF and gave it a more modern feel. After China's part in the Korean War, this Communist nation also received IS-3 deliveries. The IS-3 was also used as a trainer for new Soviet tanker models before it was taken to storage. The Soviets maintained the IS-3's designation as the most dominant tank in the whole world. Few war vehicles could dispute this distinction.
Going after a tank can be a bigger feat than people think. Thanks to nowadays popular Anti Tank guided Missiles the military troops are able to do this much easier and improve the combat on the ground. With all the options available we should now rank which ones are in the top ten. There might not be an easy answer, but we've still created a ranking of which ones are most effective at taking out a tank.
The Merkava IV is an Israeli tank that transports soldiers at high speeds, and it's main goal is to keep the men inside alive. The tank has a new way of firing. The armor is removable on all sides, including the top and bottom of the tank. The Mark IV has a big 120 mm turret and can shoot more types of ammunition than previous models using an electric semi-automatic revolving magazine for ten shots. It also has a much larger machine gun (>12mm) to fight against vehicles.
Just like any other type of technology, military weapons like rifles are also bound to change over time. Throughout history the weapons industry has always been at the head of producing weapons that can create the most amount of damage against an enemy. Rifles originally came out of the industrial revolution and have been used as a way to inflict harm upon one's adversaries, and they were especially effective during WWI and WWII. Nowadays it's not only soldiers who are using rifles, but private citizens also have them as well as a way of protecting one's individual rights. The US, Yemen and Finland leading the way in the percentage of armed citizens. The following articles will show you the best assault rifles that have been produced throughout history based upon how effective they were at the times they were manufactured. They are rated based on their ability to do the most damage against an opponent during the time that they were used.
The art of war has since evolved especially in the past two decades. In the 21st century the Air Force of any country has become the backbone of its defense strategy. The Air Force is now an integral element in ensuring a country's security from invasion of other sovereign states. The general agreement is that with evidence of clear air dominance no other country will dare strike a particular territory. The past twenty years has seen numerous advancements in flight technology and in aeronautical engineering. These days, fighter jets are not just faster and more capable of advanced maneuvers. They are also better equipped and have more capability for waging war. Now, electronic warfare is the norm and communications are radar have improved by leaps and bounds. These fighter planes are also designed with better visual range and increased missile range. In addition there is greater availability of a wider range of weapons that can be carried by supersonic jet planes. At this moment, the evolution of fighter jets is still ongoing. Scientists are currently hard at work to create jets that are not only stealthy and difficult to detect but they aspire to build better ones that are virtually impossible. Here, we have made for you a compilation of the top ten fighter jets that are being used by armies all over the world. The list is based on the following criteria: evaluation of the jets performance in warfare and their advanced features.
In a newly released film with Brad Pitt, a Second World War Tiger 131 tank is being used. The tank was restored in a local museum for the actor Brad Pitt to use in the movie Fury. The tank is normally an exhibit at the museum, but is being used for this special occasion. The director of the museum said that the tank was one of the German weapons that the allies were most afraid of. It is said that the tank could take out another enemy tank from almost a mile away. "The tank was cleaned up so that the people could understand what a scary piece of equipment that this tank would have been during a fight", the curator said. "Finally the whole world will be able to see a real Tiger tank in a modern movie."
Of course there are some made-up outrageous German weapons that you might have seen in some video games such as Call of Duty, but there actually were some pretty amazing arms that the Germans used during the second World War. When the war was coming to an end, it was a race for their scientists and engineers to come up with some of the most high-tech weapons of that time period. The reason for this is that Hitler was frantically scrambling for a weapon that would give him an edge over his enemies, but, of course, he was too late. The final project called "Wunderwaffen" ("The Wonder Weapons") did not have enough time to complete.
Belgium designed the FN P90 as a personal defense weapon. The name comes from the year it came out, being 1990. It was created when NATO asked for a compact yet powerful weapon to help out crews against terrorists. It helped to replace other weapons such as the 19mm Parabellum that were being used prior to the introduction of the FN P90.
A 6-barreled machine gun, the M134 Minigun can fire from two thousand to six thousand rounds of ammunition every minute.On the barrel is a Gatling gun style rotating device that is powered by external means, but in general an electric motor. It's called "Mini" because of the other designs that came out inkling the M62 Vulcan that had a caliber of twenty mm or higher. When we say "Minigun" it is in a reference to a gun that GE created originally, but the term "minigun" normally means a Gatling gun style of rifle with an external power source. Of course this term is still used when talking about other types of weapons even if they don't have a power source or a specific caliber.
The US Navy has developed a directed-energy weapon known as LaWS (Laser Weapon System). In early 2014 (or late 2013) this directed-energy weapon would be installed in the USS Ponce for the purpose of field testing. The Kratos Defense and Security Solutions developed this system in support of the US Navy's DE&EWS (Directed Energy & Electric Weapon Systems) program after being awarded a contract amounting to $11 million in the year 2010. However, in May 2012, the CIWS control system was used in NSWC test for enabling the beam director for tracking UAV target. LaWs is primarily intended for ship defense, particularly against both suicidal and non-suicidal small boat attacks and drones. At present it isn't capable of engaging missiles, ships, submersibles, or large aircraft that are approaching the ship. The basic design of LaWs features a solid-state infrared beam that can be adjusted to low output for crippling the target's sensor, and a higher output for destroying a target. For every firing, only an energetic pulse needs to be generated, making it more efficient over projectile weapons in terms of operation, storage space, transportation, handling and maintenance.
As a response to US ships being in the Gulf, an Iranian Navy officer said that warships are heading toward US water borders, said a Fars news reporting agency. An Iranian admiral is quoted saying that the ships are moving towards the borders as a message to the Americans. Apparently these ships have gone towards the Atlantic by going new South Africa. The United States has increased the amount of Navy vessels they have in the Persian Gulf, so this is a response by Iran. However, there was not a definite report that Iranian ships were actually getting closer to the borders. The United States defense department put out an anonymous statement saying that they doubted that Iranian vessels were actually approaching. America and it's allies regularly do different navy exercises in the Gulf as a way to make sure that the area is free for oil to pass through. Iran sees the Gulf as being part of their boundaries and wants to increase their influence over the area. There have been threats by high up people in Iran saying that if there was any attack that they could block the Strait of Hormuz, thus blocking the oil distribution. Also, if the US was to press too hard into stopping Iran from producing Nuclear weapons then Iran has leverage in stopping the shipment of oil through the strait.
The General Atomics Avenger, formerly known as the Predator C is an unmanned combat air vehicle. This war machine is built for the US Military by the General Atomics Aeronautical Systems. This drone first took to the air in April 4, 2009. The Avenger is different from other drones like MQ-1 Predator and the MQ-9 Reaper (Predator B) because it has stealth features and a turbofan engine. The stealth features of this vehicle are: 1) S-shaped exhaust for lower heat and decreased radar signature, 2) internal weapons storage. This new Avenger drone is capable of carrying the Lynx aperture radar equipment and supporting MQ-9 weapons. It can also be fitted with the electro-optical targeting system (EOTS) similar to that of the F-35 Lightning II. This drone also has the ALERT (Advanced Low-observable Embedded Reconnaissance Targeting) system. The General Atomics Avenger requires similar ground supportive systems as the MQ-9 & MQ-1 models. The infrastructure, communications networks, and ground control center are no different.
