Can liquids leak into modern tanks? Can you take them down with molotovs?
>>

Pretty much all MBTs have been CBRN-proof since the 80's.

No.

>>33822485
Termite is a liquid.
>>
>>33822437
no.
>>
I mean, with enough molotovs, maybe you will be able to overheat or choke out the engine via drowning the air intakes with fire...
>>
>>33822585
But it doesn't leak since it melts the armor
>>
>>33822585
Termite is an insect silly

>>33822437
Not anymore. Discerning freedom fighters use IEDs.

If I was told I had to take out a tank the only thing I can think of is either an RPG to the treads or a thermite sticky bomb, but god knows I would not want to be close enough to use that.

yes

undercover SAS officers were arrested after allegedly shooting an Iraqi policeman when challenged at a checkpoint. Demonstrators attacked four British armoured vehicles with stones and Molotov cocktails. The two British soldiers were eventually freed from custody, after a raid that destroyed part of Basra's main police station.

One soldier, named as Pte Ryon Burton, who was seen escaping from the stricken Warrior engulfed in flames, described the escalation in the hostility to Sky News. He said: "The crowd grew more hostile, throwing petrol bombs. I heard the gunner shouting that a petrol bomb had gone into the turret, we were on fire from the back.

"We tried to lift the opening device... I had to get out... I jumped through the fire to get out, and couldn't breathe at all; I was just thinking about my life."

L/Cpl Jo McCann, who was also trapped in the Warrior, said that he heard the vehicle's gunner say the sights had been smashed. Almost immediately, a petrol bomb fell through the turret into the Warrior. L/Cpl McCann said he dived over the back of the vehicle, and was dragged away to medics.

Although the Warrior was ablaze, at least one of the soldiers returned to the vehicle. "It looked a lot worse than it was," L/Cpl McCann said. "The Warrior is quite a tough vehicle. It was a bit hot to touch, but not too bad. The instruments still worked OK."

Sgt George Long said that the soldiers had been under "heavy bombardment" inside their tank. "The crowd grew more hostile, carrying petrol bombs; one unfortunately hit the top. I had to get out; [the Warrior] was in flames."

Sounds like they paniced and opened the hatch, allowing a petrol bomb to land inside the turret. They probably would have been fine if they'd just stayed buttoned and started driving away.

Stop calling them molotov cocktails. Just sounds like a faggot european drink.

Call them petrol bombs.

And yes. Tanks have sights, engine exhausts, air filters, etc. All of which can stop a tank or killing the operators.

These are tanks, not submarines.
