Hedgehog Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 (edited) Hello. I've never seen an M60 (in SB Pro PE at least) pop it's turret. From what I've seen inside there's no protected ammo, so surely it should be as prone to blowing its turret as a T-55/62/Centurion/Sho't Kal ? Your thoughts please Edited May 18, 2020 by Hedgehog 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSe419E Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 Seen it happen many times. Also, because it has cased ammo, it seems more likely to do the blow torch imitation because it doesn't necessarily ignite all at once. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iarmor Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 M48/M60 and T-54/55/62 popped their turrets much more often than Shot Cal. Unlike the others, the Shot Cal had no main gun rounds stored above turret ring. In addition, the original British turret control system was electric, as opposed to the Cadillac Gage hydraulic system on the M48 (A2 and onwards) and M60, which made the Shot Cal Alef (1970) much less flammable. OTOH, the Cadillac Gage system had much superior performance, so the IDF installed it nonetheless on Shot Cal Bet (1975/6). As a result, in the 1982 war the burn injury rates among IDF Centurion crews and among M48/M60 crews were similar, as opposed to the significant difference observed in 1973.
