Default Re: Soviet tank crew survival.

"No, but 99 percent of killed Iraqi tankers were those who served in T-72..."

Now,do you have a source for that or are you just making it up?
The number you give would imply that almost everyone got off the hundreds of T-55/T-62 destroyed unscathed.Since this sounds extremely improbable I would like to hear a good source for that.

"DU react with armor in pirroforic reaction and burn everithing in its way, so it is imposible for fire suppresion system to do something, and once ammo is cook off"

Do you actually believe that with such process in action
on a T-62, with approximatively the same internal volume and 40 unprotected rounds stuffed around, everything would be fine and dandy? This would be the most ludicrous thing I have heard so far.

"How you will survive, if your turret goes away?"

How will you survive a massive overpenetration resuling in
overpressure, splinters and immediate fires in tank with unprotected ammo? Most likely you will not.That goes for the T-62 and the T-55 as well.The turret going away is not that important.It means that the ammo is going off and THAT is the problem for anyone inside.The flying turret is more of a side effect.Again, do you remember that burning T-55 with flames erupting from the hatches?
Do you think you would be fine in that?
