I've always wondered why that particular breed of idiot (conspiracy theorist) never seems to realize that your appearance can add to or detract from your credibility, especially with tenuous "evidence" that is really just speculation, and may in fact be purely coincidence in most cases.

It's entertainment.  Nothing more. 

While I happen to have an open mind about things like UFOs, I find most of these shows to be so far fetched and rampant with wild speculation they are almost unwatchable.

BTW - I would one day like to watch a show on the History Channel that is actually ABOUT HISTORY rather than aliens, inbred alligator hunters, doomday prepers, people who buy junk and pawn shops.  Just sayin'.
Going by "Hoplite" now. :)

Remember when the History Channel was about just that???  Like when the Weather Channel was about the WEATHER???  I didn't mind when they ran a 1-2hr segment about tornadoes, hurricanes, etc. around 1-2am.  But they would always cut to the weather every 5 minutes, if I recall correctly.  Now????  I think they have some weather in their whateverthehellitisnow channel. :bhead

A few times, I've landed about 200 or more hits on a wirb over a 2 minute period with the field ack 37mm and no effect.

An auto ack on the same field will destroy that same wirb in 3 seconds.

I'm not sure a 37mm should do anything to our actual tanks, unless we've got spalling modeled (we very obviously don't). I mean what are 200 of your 37mm HE rounds going to do that a 75mm HE round can't do?

I don't know if Hitech modeled the NS-37 HE to the tested specs against armor. At 200m it could crack and shatter 20mm steel plate. Offline testing against the wirbel with the Yak -9T, one hit first pass to disable the gun. Second pass at a steep angle shooting into the engine hatch 2-3 rounds where armor is 11mm, wirbel blows up.

Tony Williams has put up a new photo gallery that's an eye opener about MG and cannon cartridges.
