I just noticed that it's tank turned 90 degrees
I thought it's some ground-cannon weapon built on ground :suicide:

how the fuck does one do that? the mirkava is like 20 tons HEAVIER than the Abrams tank

[QUOTE=Comrade_Eko;44548010]I feel like I've made a terrible mistake in the OP by not emphasising enough that this "toy" tank actually fires rounds. Xinhua did not confirm if the rounds were actually live or not but he lives in Mianzhu village which isn't too far away from the Chengdu hi-tech zone. He also used to work in the navy and this is his recreation of the Type 63a which is amphibious.

On the other hand... he worked in the navy fixing unmanned aerial drones not tanks. I kinda doubt the Ministry of National Defense keeps the 105 mm ammo next to the Hongjian-10's.

Sadly I'm not the military type and know little when it comes to matters like this (besides stating the obvious) but if we can somehow summon that facepuncher with the avi of the TF2 sniper shaking his head I bet he'd know, that guy is like our own personal Tom Clancy.[/QUOTE]
I am Tom Clancy now. What.

I am eagerly awaiting your next novel; you've been lulling a bit for the past 6 months.

Its gonna be about the US Government inflating gold prices, some dudes from some non-America place financing the militia movement with gold money, and stirring Libertarians into domestic terrorism, and something about Ukraine.
Oh, and I'll spend an entire [B]FIVE CHAPTERS[/B] describing the history of the AR-15's charging handle :)

It's actually about three tons lighter, according to wikipedia.
