Ive been tasked as a driver in meaford June 18-August 31... BMQ/SQ/DP1 Just ask the driver's for BestodaBest!  :)

i have no background whatsoever in Armour; i am looking forward to a component transfer into the trade, but all that i know are from books, articles, and television programs... im not here to argue, nor claim any of you to be incorrect; simply to gain as much knowledge as possible on the...

Agreed. Although, i never did mention it being a new form of target acquisition... i do know it is a rather aged method, and is in no way comparable to modern methods or technology.

Agreed on both points. Better yet, i'll simply drop the arguement. Regards.

But, did you not argue my math skills by correcting me on the matter of time vs. distance?

My apologies, i dont mean to cause a rucuss... No, i have never fired one, and probably never will, but there was no need for him to "call me out." I would of let the matter die, but i felt it was necessary to ensure he understands that i made a mistake, apologized, and there is no need for him...

how do u figure im off by 11.5 seconds? i posted 10 seconds for "3km" if you bothered to read carefully. i would be off by 11 sec if i said 3.75km, as said in the original post. If you want to be a real jerk, then lets do the math. The missle reaches 3.75km in 21 sec So how long till it...

hmm... so i was off by about 5 or 6 seconds...

I honestly haven't the faintest clue... im sure there are many forums on the site regarding things of this manner... i think your looking at around 10sec for it to reach out to 3km... maybe more

this is all true; "rapid succession" may have been a poor selection of words... the point i was trying to get across is that there was no need to get out of the vehicle in order to prep/load another missle; but of course, it is necessary to wait until the initial missle is splashed before firing...

that just seems rediculously under-priced...but if it happens to be true, thats pretty awesome. And i think the term is "Liability" or "Collateral"... somethin like that, lol...

The system has more then 1 missle loaded... the system can fire off more than 1 in rapid succession if required before needing to be reloaded, at which point would require the crew to expose themselves.

Sorry Avatar, But i gotta call b/s on this one... there's no way in heck your friend is only paying $80/month for his MX-6... especially if he's in the "discriminated group". You might wanna recheck those figures with your buddy.

Which israeli tanks employ that method? Merkeva?  regardless, when i first heard of it, i thought it was rather genious... not only can you use it to identify the target, but if the splash is on target, you know the tank round will land spot-on...

thx simysmom, much obliged... i just hope it works out in the end... supposing i even do get 2 go to edmonton... a couple of years in barracks wouldn't be too bad, so at least i could accustom myself to the city and surroundings.
