To move a tank is to expose its position and put it at risk - now, if you go on the offensive - a tank is a great weapon to attack an urban stronghold with. And to be honest with you im not great on info when it comes to tanks. no, I’m saying 90% of the time all tanks are dug in – whatever nation.

Some things are best left unsaid, especially new gucci bits of technology that can be real advantage. yeah your correct – tanks can and do get used offensively, of course they do.

(As in distance from the tanks) And how often are the troops that close? I thought tanks were mainly used to create a blitzkrieg effect. But if you say they are dug in 90% of the time i believe you. ARENA's ment to stop all topdown weapons such as the javerlin and hellfire missiles even when fired from helicopters. As long as the missile doesnt travel faster than a speed of Mach 2 ARENA will stop the warhead. 00000Dean00000,

Where it spays munitions downwards onto the imcoming missile Concidering ARENA is fired above the turret it would take a real fool to think top down attacks would work And that 0.9Kg starstreak warhead would have any impact on a modern main battle tank such as a T90 RPG 29s only just strach the surface and they are 1.5kg warheads No
