The Stryker has the ability to sink much deeper in the mud !

@52111centrumcz 12 лет назад

"Strykers also boast some innovative technologies, such as run flat tires that can be inflated or deflated from within the vehicle..." what was standard for Warsaw pact armored vehicles since the 1960s. You gotta love the PR department that made this vid :)

Glonass is mainly for naval operations so it mainly covers oceans...

@52111centrumcz 12 лет назад

Glonass is mainly a naval system to enable Russian boomers to navigate at Sea; therefore it mainly covers the sea.

There is such a thing as anti satellite missiles.

@BaconTV123 Except the Canadian's stole the LAV from the Swiss, who designed the damn things. They are merely made under license in Canada.

@MitchofSmeg 12 лет назад

they mentioned how the PACT guys had this in the first portion of the episode, lol.

@tipex12 To take out our GPS you'd have to knock our satellites out of space. Also I will add that US is the only one with these GPS satellites so anyone depending on them, like you, would be just as screwed without it. Sure they all know how to read maps and compasses but that opens the door for lots of errors.

@ThePerfectRed 12 лет назад

Is this a promotion video for US equipment? I miss international comparison.

@OlderG0ds 13 лет назад

@mishgun420 Yes the USA is the only one with fully functioning Global navigation satellite system. GALILEO and COMPASS are still being developed and the Russian GLONASS one doesn't cover the whole globe just Russia, therefore isn't global positioning.

@MokomaSusi Being cost efficient is a bad thing? M113 are still being used by US today and the up-armored M113A3 Super Gavin has the best protection record of any apc out in Iraq. It does it's job well it's not meant to go fight other vehicles just transport troops with a little defensive fire. I don't buy that they are too cheap since I see all kinds of rich countries using them like Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Netherlands. So which do you think is the best ever ?

@citi0rhythm 12 лет назад

@L4ss no bro ....its actually made in Canada....

@L4ss 12 лет назад

@hottieprowelder stryker is made in USA not Canada! :)

@disappointedbyhumanity2259 9 лет назад

God look at them talk up the Stryker. Typical. All talk, but no substance.

@pepminator 12 лет назад

i call bullshit on the styrker MGS being C-130 airliftable

@macuss87 14 лет назад

an abrams has a 120mm gun not 105

@ncs2000 13 лет назад

what is that at 2.35?

@xxTheCeLLxx 11 лет назад

oh yes, the M1 had a 105... all other ones had 120mm, sorry my bad

@JustAGamerA 5 лет назад

you probably arent going to see this but the first model of the abrams had a 105mm gun on it

@xxTheCeLLxx 11 лет назад

2:47 That information is false. The M1 Abrams tank, and most modern NATO tanks use the 120mm gun, a much heavier weapon. The 105mm is used in earlier cold war era tanks, such as the M60 Patton, the Centurion, etc

@hottieprowelder 13 лет назад

made in canada

@OlderG0ds 11 лет назад

First M1 model had 105 gun

@TheNorman1169 12 лет назад

@libertateaaa and all the russian stuff

@OlderG0ds 14 лет назад

@macuss87 M1 had a 105, M1A1 on has 120mm

@Shackers1337 12 лет назад

@crysis90war well they lost so not really the best is it

@OlderG0ds 14 лет назад

@MokomaSusi Best ever made? and what do you have to counter that claim? M113 has been in service with like half the world for 50 years.

@OlderG0ds 12 лет назад

@BaconTV123 ok let's put this thing to bed. The Stryker and LAV are both made in Canada by an American company called General Dynamics. Nobody stole anything you idiots.
