  1. Yes, I am just pointing out that Sendowl is legitimately taged as spam by spam filters. I nearly did not retrieve the e mail from my spam folder. It's a business decision; but expect some to not be able to spot your e mail, when the e mail is from noreply@sendowl.com
  2. I tend to disagree, look at https://www.sendowl.com , https://www.sendowl.com/features and www.sendowl.com/pricing. It definitely looks like a marketing site which would be why the spam filter caught it.
  3. My spam filter nabbed it! And it does look iffy to me. It does not point to esim, it points to sendowl, which my spam filter definitely does not like. Is send owl an advertising site, that would explain the my spam blocker stopping it?
  4. Oh dear, HESH is High Explosive Squash Head! But HE does not squash against the armour and can be fired from a smooth bore. I don't know where you get the idea of ''reflected energy''; reflected off what? Dissipated or absorbed by the armour would be more to the point. I think you need to stop listening to ''people on the internet'', and do some research into the basics, read a book or two; anything by Ian Hogg, for example, would be good. Then apply some logic. Also think about this; you got an answer from Ssnake and he makes a living from selling this software to national armies. Surely the model he uses would be valid enough for their training.
  5. If I remember correctly HESH works by squashing against the outer armour and exploding, causing the inner surface of the armour to shatter and a send splinters through the turret or hull, damaging equipment and killing personnel (the armour is not actually penetrated). And it does not work from smooth bore guns, it needs the warhead to spin. It's effectively obsolete. If I'm reading the pics correctly, the explosive shell struck the ground beside the tank throwing chunks of unspecified material at the tank at high velocity.
  6. I find video the hardest medium to learn from. Reading is much easier for me, I prefer a good manual.
  7. If I remember correctly Microsoft was mentioned in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
  8. But they told us Win 10 was forever! Only constantly updated. So how can we trust Microsoft?
  9. Z Force is an unfortunate phrase for me; last time I was in Vic Barracks (which was a long time ago) there was still a Z Force HQ. Refers to a unit that under took special operations in WWII.
  10. 'The first nine ‘Terminator’ tank support fighting vehicles will enter service with armored units of the Russian Central Military District’s 90th Guards Tank Division stationed in the Sverdlovsk and Chelyabinsk Regions from December 1 after successful trials.' https://militaryleak.com/2021/11/09/first-terminator-tank-support-fighting-vehicles-to-enter-service-with-russian-central-military-districts-tank-division/
  11. I'm using a ROG Strix XG43VQ, a curved ultra-wide 43-inch gaming monitor, 120Hz. Resolution is 3840 x 1200. And I love it! Have had no trouble; but I do run SB Pro in window mode, just short of full width and height.
  12. I'm guessing Norse mythology: 'Borghild was the first wife of Sigmund. She bore him two sons, Hamund and Helgi.'is not what he's talking about.
  13. It seems the BMPT-72 Terminator 2 is now in production: https://www.armyrecognition.com/defense_news_july_2021_global_security_army_industry/uralvagonzavod_starts_the_supply_of_serial_production_of_bmpt-72_terminator_2_fire_support_vehicle.html
  14. I personally don't need 'playable' not really interested in the crew positions; having said that I would like all Israeli vehicles modeled. 'I don't think we even know how much they tricked out their M-60s and Shermans even'. I remember back in the late 90s and early 2000s, someone, I think he may still a web site, said he had access to the all the modification records for the M60s. He made up names for all different 'varieties' of M60s. But later I came across references to their servicing procedures; it appears that the reason there were so many different looking M60s was that, when in for servicing the M60 and M48 was to be updated to whatever the current standard was and if they did not have all the parts available they fitted what they had in stock.
  15. Version 1.0.0
