This 152mm Cannon Fires APFSDS Rounds!💥 || MBT-70

The 152-mm Gun-Launcher Main Battle Tank 70 (MBT-70), also known as the KPz-70 in Germany, was a collaborative U.S. and West German initiative to develop a new main battle tank to replace the existing M60 family of MBT during the 1960s. This was intended to combat the new generation of tanks designed by the Soviet Union for the Warsaw Pact. The new tank was planned to have sophisticated features like newly designed hydropneumatic suspension, dual-layer spaced armour, and a 152 mm XM150E5 gun/launcher that could fire both conventional ammunition and the Shillelagh missile for long-range engagement. The tank additionally featured a remotely controlled 20 mm weapon station on the turret roof. Overall, the tank provided nuclear, biological, and chemical protection for the tank crews (NBC protection capability). The tank was anticipated to remain in service into the 1990s, however the program experienced significant challenges from the start, with the United States Army and the German Bundeswehr having diverging doctrines that were not coordinated and were not resolved before the project was too far along to be modified. The Germans were sceptical of the combined gun and missile launcher, and the U.S. Congress was frustrated by the program's increasing budget without results.

It’s a shame that gaijin nerfed the sabot. It use to pen up to 346mm of armor.

The Kpz 70 is better in reloading rate as it does have a 6 sec reload

[SONYSIKE]

as an xm803 and mbt70 player, there was really no point on making the round worse than m735

also i hate how the 20mm looks straight up when looking to the right of the tank, why isnt it the same as looking forward? it seems to just want to stay above that cupola

[chocolat-kun]

Cant wait to see its sabot nerf to only 104mm of pen

[machinewings]

Actually I personally hate mbt-70 because the players of it are too good at flanking. (I'm a kpz-70 player too lol)

[Pr.Wyvern]

I miss when this thing used to have good pen.

11:02 That Dardo is quite literally no more. 🤣

[sicario]

can you share your spec computer and your setting game warthunder? and not forget, and what are your 7.1 surround headset equalizer settings. thanks

[Gntlman]

but only 280mm pen nad for the 152mm gun my opinion no have enought spall damage....

[defenderofp.]

only + of this vehicle is mobility, both rounds suck, mechanic of atgm and nerfed sabot

[Mushyguy]

Nerfs sabot.

Why does Gaijin hate every american tank that has high mobility and fire power with no survivability? M18 gets upteired to a br where it can't pen anything up front and can get its turret crew machine gunned.

I would kill to have a giant 20mm(?) cannon on top of an abrams.
