Pakistan Army's VT-4 Main Battle Tank | Updates & Discussions

i don’t think so.
DU is well depleted useless and available in thousand of tons from power plants

No it is not available in thousands of tons. Power plants can use just some grams everyday.
 
But DU is poisonous and radioactive, if you were defending the invasion of enemy on you own land, you never want to use DU ammunition because battlefield may turn to wasteland no matter you win or lose.

Exactly, and that is why they are not issued in peacetime. Only once war is imminent.
 
sure

exactly it is very very lethal
thats the job of the tool in war time
 
If anyone read the reports about the use of DU rounds during First Gulf war ? ... if not then I summarize the report... these rounds cause more damage to the user then enemy.... brain damage and other physical related issues.
 
But then HESH is also not supposed to penetrate. Does the damage by spalling inside.

Would be interesting to see the damage inside.

AKs have Kevlar based spall liner to reduce the effect of impact of such rounds.

Exactly, and that is why they are not issued in peacetime. Only once war is imminent.
DUs have their ups and downs but they can make a mess of incoming armor thrust. Quality penetrators can achieve up to 50% more penetration values in some cases.

Best part is all mbts in our inventory can fire these rounds.
