NonCredibleDefense
A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

There must be some kind of rule violation here right? There are tons of rules about only pointing your gun at people you are prepared to kill and acting as if guns are loaded at all times. Swinging a tank turret across the broad side of a civilian buss feels way worse.
Not that I have any actual idea, but I recon any shell fired at that distance and that flimsy a target wouldn't even lite the fuse.
Also this was recorded at the annual day of the Bundeswehr, basically a promotional event to get people to join the armed forces. Not sure if pointing you're 120mm barrel at their face does the job, but I was in the navy, so what do I know
the tank shell probably wouldn't notice the buss but I would notice the shell when it goes trough me and 3 other passengers.
You can identify as swiss cheese though
Probably more like ground beef.
I mean any shell even if it's fuse doesn't activate will still do significant damage, killing multiple people from at least the shrapnel. At that range the overpressure would also be pretty dangerous probably.
If you show up to WW3 in a bus I feel like that's on you dawg
c/fuck_cars arriving to ww3 be like
It's pretty much impossible to move a tank anywhere without it pointing at something or someone. You can't exactly point the barrel straight up or down to the ground. I imagine it's probably a bit harder to accidentally fire a shell than the trigger mechanism of a firearm.
Just wait until the barrel goes flaccid before swinging it around
Let's just say that sometimes that rule is violated when exercising in the public space. I have seen that multiple times and talked to some soldiers that confirmed that civilians sometimes unknowingly are part of an exercise, although you would never fire on them.
