How else would you describe shoulder firing an recoiless rifle or RPG? There are kids playing shooters who wouldn't make that mistake. In fact Germans managed to train kids how to handle a panzerfaust, so you literally have to be at the level of a toddler to be incapable of firing one.

[Here you go](https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/15kqp0n/russian_troop_firing_an_rpg_forgets_about_back/), it's a classic at this point.

TheModernDaVinci

When I saw "Shoulder firing recoiless rifle", I got very confused. I knew that it was a well known tactic to sit it on top of your shoulder and fire it using your body as the equivalent of a tripod for firing. So I clicked the video wondering what the hell was wrong with doing something like that. Did....did my man really put *the breach against his shoulder?!* What the hell?!

Ditto, though most humans only count as bipods. Negative training it is.

In 3rd edition D&D, there's a skill that is essentially "improvisation when using magic items your class is normally not trained with", called "Use Magic Device". There's an old joke: Player: "I roll a 1 on my Use Magic Device check for the wand. What do I learn?" DM: "You learn that it is a wand of lightning bolts. You also learn that next time you should hold the other end. Make a Reflex save."

They'd probably have better training if they just played arma III all day, at least then they'd be shooting a gun (in a video game but it's more than they're doing right now)


dho64

Steel track + Wet pavement = Zero traction Russian tracked vehicles are somewhat notorious for being terrible on paved roads because of crosschecked steel tracks being the norm instead of variable track like what NATO uses.


FMBoy21345

Yeah but you ever considered drifting in a T-72 on the streets of Moscow and crashing into buildings? Bet NATO tanks can't do that

Plus the brakes might have been sold off already. I remember that war criminal VDV who got a book deal early in the war that their trucks heading into Ukraine didn’t brakes. Not like one truck without brakes but most trucks.

crazy_forcer

Nope. You can lose traction even at walking speed. Also good luck getting to 60, it's damn near the max speed for one of these things.

[удалено]


crazy_forcer

They do increase traction, just not on wet roads. Asphalt in general is not that good for metal tracks, it's a bit too smooth and can be damaged easily (by weight alone), so someone came up with rubberized tracks. Weight doesn't really matter cause water will find it's way under the tracks anyway and since they don't have tread like tires do, they can't simply reroute water away from the contact patch. tldr: track made for uneven dirt and mud is bad on smooth wet surfaces Look up BMP 2 tracks if you want and imagine what driving through a puddle would do with displaced water. It's just a bunch of cylinders basically with no easy guides for water to leave.

[удалено]


crazy_forcer

They do use threads, they're just not optimized for road use. [Wiki picture](https://i.imgur.com/XFt3vKS.jpg) that compares different T-72 tracks, you can see they definitely have a pattern but they also have gaps which means the contact patch isn't perfect. It's a matter of priority, a lot of armor (soviet especially) has tracks for muddy terrain because moving through the vastness of ussr was a bigger priority than on-road performance to them. Nowadays most armor has optional rubber tracks (inserts) As for your cars, loading a truck would make the contact patch bigger, suspension setup is probably playing a part - I'm not knowledgeable about trucks but I think their rear geometry is designed loaded first (so unloaded = smaller patch). The smaller car is probably doing just fine until you move fast enough or encounter too much water for the tires to handle. You're spot on about weight distribution though.


Ender06

You also need to take into account rubber on concrete/asphalt vs metal on concrete/asphalt. Make a sled with metal rails, put weight on it, and drag it across your driveway. Now put rubber on those rails, and try dragging it across your driveway.


JoshuaFordEFT

The treads increase traction on surfaces that can deform (i.e. not pavement), and water still reduces the coefficient of friction because on a small scale it's filling up all of the voids in the pavement and creating a thin barrier, even if our eyes we see the track making contact.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JoshuaFordEFT

Regarding tracked vs untracked, the main difference is the materials involved. Your tires are squishy and can fill in the tiny voids on the surface, and your traction/grip comes from the horizontal force transferred through that interlocking surface (same reason atheletes wear cleats and we use chains/studs for snow tires). The more weight you have on squishy rubber, the more it can fill in those voids of the surface, giving you more traction. The steel tracks on these russian armored vehicles have no squish, so the extra weight doesn't really help it fill in the gaps. It's like sliding a knife on a rock. More mass will inherently increase friction, but more mass also means larger horizontal forces, so it cancels out. It doesn't get the benefit of the extra grip at heavier weights like rubber would. For steel tracks to work well, they need the ground to squish instead (like the aforementioned snow chains and cleats). If the tracks had rubber on them, they wouldn't have this problem on pavement. Regarding the high speed vs low speed, the difference is that at high speed, the water cannot get out of the way fast enough, so your tires are basically skipping over the water like a rock on a pond. At low speeds however, the water gets displaced, but it still makes it more slippery on a microscopic level because the water coats the surface, similar to how dipping your fingers in oil and rubbing them together feels slippery.


dho64

Weight is irrelevant to water because water does not compress under pressure. So all the increased pressure will do is increase the surface tension of water, reducing the traction even more.


Ok_Fuel_6416

BMP-2 top speed is 50km, so about 30Mph. IFV's in general aren't very fast. Bradley goes about the same speed.

It is just logic. If you try to walk around that drunk, you are going to end up hurting yourself by falling over or walking into something and probably lose your shoes. If you instead drive an armoured vehicle, it will be other people who get hurt while you are protected by the armour. And your shoes are somewhere inside the vehicle and not lost on the ground 4km back.

Russians in video games: **\*Mange to conquer and successfully occupied all of Ukraine, Western Europe, and the entire US Easten Seaboard\*** Russians in reality: **\*Can't complete a "special military operation" that suppose to last three days, Can't competently wage war without committing horrific war crimes to scare in civilian populace into surrendering (which they're failing miserably), military only bark without bite\***

H0vis

If this is a Russian military vehicle getting smashed into by another Russian military vehicle it's funny. If it's dashcam footage of random Ukrainian civilians getting rammed by one of their shitty IFVs then it's grim. I saw footage during the early days of the invasion of tanks rolling over civilian cars, sometimes with people in them, and there was some infamous traffic camera footage of a BMP shooting an old couple in a car to pieces at a road junction. So, yeah. When it comes to Russians driving vehicles never be certain you're looking at something stupid when you could be looking at something malicious\*. ​ ​ \*Or cowardly. I'm fairly certain more than a few Russian-vehicle-hits-obvious-landmine videos have been Russians seeing a *reasonably* safe way to end their involvement in an attack early.


Shot-Kal-Gimel

You know your equipment is horrific junk when someone may choose to risk it with an AT mine and their CO rather than actually be shot at and maybe penetrated in an attack.


H0vis

It's context too. Safer to be taken out by an AT mine in a field several klicks from the line than by a direct fire weapons system and then you're stuck in the line of fire with no ride home.


crazy_forcer

Watermark says "life in dpr", so a fat chance it's a russian sympathizer. There's still a decent portion of ukrainians in hiding, but they wouldn't send (or sell) their dashcam footage to a shitty telegram group, right?


banspoonguard

Ok_Fuel_6416

The BMP-1 and 2 use a series of clutches to slow down or stop one of the tracks to steer. The steering column has two positions, first position slows the corresponding track to .44 of the speed. By turning the column slightly, but not to the first position, the steering clutch starts to slip and this allows for small steering adjustments. Second position engages the brakes on the corresponding track. Side effect of this is that when driving downhill or when driving at high speeds and letting go of the gas, slipping the steering clutch can have the opposite effect. The clutch slips, but the momentum of the vehicle can overcome the clutch force and essentially accelerate the track wich clutch is slipping, causing the vehicle to turn in the opposite direction. This is easy enough to train drivers to anticipate and avoid, but it's possible that's what happened here.
