US should buy tanks from China?

[Batausu]

I was playing on Wake in a US tank, trying to cap the left flag, the one on the beach.
I got there, no problem, killed everybody and got the flag. But going back up the hill, that's another matter. It is quite an adventure! Searching for a road up in that bulky thing, bumping every piece of rock, eroding slowly your tank's health, is not a pretty site.
And when you finally got up, after a couple of minutes, everybody is gone to another far, far away flag.
Oh, and in your guts you feel like climbing a steep mountain. Of course, walking would have got you up hill faster.
Chinese tank seems more agile and has a better behavior. So why doesn't US buy it?? :)
PS. just kidding...:laugh:

umm....grammar check?

im pretty sure...the chinese tanks were bought from Russia if not the collapsed soviet union...however ingame physics and mechanics of vehicles is to be disputed...tanks in real life go way faster...the abrams A-1 can hit a cruising speed of around 40 mph

The M1a1 is crap compared to the Challenger 2, which is faster, more agile, and the armour and main gun are better performing than the m1a1....so no gentlemen, the chinks and the yanks should both buy tanks from the brits, but that aint gonna happen cos its OURS :P

rawr rawr rawr...yeah we know challenger 2 pwns all.... but its not an option in the game...and euroforce isn't out yet (i can't remember, but i think it was in the euroforce pack, it was either that or the leopard 2)

Good for them. Too bad the US military uses the M1A2 now.

irl the china and mec tanks are faster than the abrams, also the abrams has no auto load system. yet chavan armor cancels those aspects out.

Re: US should buy tanks from China?

tanks r awsome irl. the abrams has this computer system that finds a target and gives the data to the gunner, then goes to find more targets as it is firing cool

It's almost hard to believe that anything the Brits engineered will stay in one piece for any length of time.

I remember seeing the latest Jaguar test photos. At the Nurburgring they had an external shut off switch, so if the engine fuxored itself you could jump out and hit the button near the driver's side door before it burst into flames.

Actually it'd be cool if they included that in Battlefield 2. Instead of C4'ing it you could run up behind it and just turn it off.
