not driving a tank in your garden, it is a professional show. It is not a show
then draw a picture, just demo. what the path of the gun is moving by your assumption. Let's check which one is correct. The gun jumped a little, when the tank drives down from the small hill. What is the mechanism used?Do you know what's the meaning of "on" of a tank stabilisation system?
1) The system works on different modes. They may turn on one or both of the 2-axis (H & V).
2) Even with both of H&V are activated, it still contains sub-mode. You have option to turn on range finder only. It means the gun will not be stabilised even the stabilisation system is on---- for advanced MBT fire controlling system, range finder and gun are not fixed physically like what we see on T-72, you have to on/off together, buddy.
This active-standby mode has its advantage, it will not only save a lot of energy, but also always be fire-ready.
just draw the path how the gun should move by your assumption. Whether the gun is pointing to somewhere can be seen by the path.The stabilizer is clearly shown in the last 30 seconds of the video where the tank made a salute to the VIP. Off road and they definitely off it. As simple as that. VIP will be more concern about its off road obstacles performance, firing accuracy and stabilizer which is clearly demonstrated in the few last moment and mind you. Whole chassis turning and turret gun is almost complete stagnant.
And you are the one making assumption doing off road course will need stabilizer. Nobody is buying your idea.
