Here's a pretty interesting photo of space station protection after being tested against hypervelocity impacts. Spallation, anyone?

[Gallia-]

There are no obvious signs of scabbing. It's just a bump in the armour.

[Laritaia]

this is what spalling looks like

What kind of environment is that camo for? Why blue green and yellow

[Gallia-]

Desert probably.

[Laritaia]

What kind of environment is that camo for? Why blue green and yellow

is there any environment it isn't for?

Well I don't know how blue and green help in a desert, and I don't know how yellow and blue help in a jungle or forest. Just being three distinct colours seems to me like it wouldn't fit in any environment, which is why I asked.

perhaps it's for those places which aren't strictly desert, jungle or forest

How does grey and green help with deserts?



Leaving aside Bovington's incompetence, it's not a particularly impressive camouflage scheme. Flat sand seems superior if only for matching hue of surrounding terrain.

[Laritaia]

of the three camos i've posted non of them are made up

[Gallia-]

Why keep the guns green?

[Laritaia]

on the Castellan?

replacement parts

[Gallia-]

They replaced the gun but repainted the tires?

What a weird tankii crew.

[Laritaia]

repainted the tires?

[Gallia-]

There was only the replacement searchlight, fuel drums, and gun barrel.

No replacement wheels or anything more common, though.

Highly advanced advanced tank forces like the Austrasian Panzerwaffe paint all vehicles uniform dark grey then covers them with appropriately coloured multispectral camouflage net kits.

[Puzikas]

Pink is the most effective desert camouflage.

[Gallia-]

it's a ground vehicle because it's on the ground

This is supposedly a very simple schematic of Object 490a's guts. Half the turret basket was taken up by the autoloader, but does anyone know how its semicircular loader worked?

[Iltica]

Haven't been able to find a diagram of that particular version's loader but it seems plausible that it is similar to this related project's loader, but offset to one side.
On that same forum page is a gif of a quarter-circle shaped mechanism that might be possible to expand into a semi-circle.

Some other possibilities are a sort of vertical belt system along the lines of this:

Or if you want to get really weird, a derivative of the old T-64 carousel system that doesn't form a complete circle, sacrificing the ability to select different rounds in favor functioning more like a curved magazine on an assault rifle.
Nevermind that's stupid.
