Let's use 3D Animation to show how a tank works!

(and yes, even as an American I agree our system is pretty wonky😫) I made a mistake with the smoke grenade launchers in the video. They don't emit smoke directly - they shoot out grenades around the tank and then those grenades emit smoke. For those of you that noticed the anime paint job on the helicopter in War Thunder - yes this is a real thing.

The models were then modified for use in this video. I did not end up using the tank 3d model that War Thunder sent me - it was easier to purchase a model specifically made for blender. https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/maya-m1-abrams-tank/704886 https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/3d-soldier-blender-model-1477321 https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/3d-model-of-agt-1500-turbine/839524 Internet Sources: https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/coldwar/US/M1_Abrams.php https://fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/m1.htm https://science.howstuffworks.com/m1-tank1.htm https://youtu.be/t1oXoHUqlNg - "M1A2 Abrams Tank" https://youtu.be/sC2ePKRvo9k - "M1A2 Main Battle Tank Firing Main Gun - Interior View" https://youtu.be/OFN79wuuTy8 - "Anatomy of an Abrams Tank" Book Sources: "M1 Abrams Main Battle Tank: From 1980 (M1, M1A1, M1A2 Models) - Owners' Workshop Manual" https://amzn.to/2WaIzjv "The M1 Abrams Main Battle Tank" By Steve Parker https://amzn.to/3d51raa "Tanks Inside & Out" By Michael E.

In this video we're going to look specifically at the American M1A2 Abrams tank. The tank weighs 68 US Tons and can go up to 42 miles per hour. Parts of the tank include the caterpillar tracks, the wheels, the hull, and the turret. The caterpillar tracks are used to displace the weight of the tank allowing it cross rough terrain. The tank holds a crew of 4 - the driver, gunner, commander and the loader. The driver is up front and the other 3 are in the turret. The engine is in the back of the tank, it's an AGT-1500 which is powered by jet fuel. The main gun fires shells at about 3500mph. It can hit a target 2 miles away. There are a few countries besides the USA that use variants of the M1 Abrams tank. M1A2 Abrams tank continues to be the main battle tank for the United States military. #b3d #tank #military
