To me it looks like either they FAR exceeded (ie like 3x or 4 times) the tube life span. or the round hit something in the tube and detonated.
Just use a grinder disk.
Artillery barrels have a shelf life as well.
There are actually videos on telegram where russians deliberately open up land mines for the explosive and put them in every other round and shell. I think a LOT of ammo trucks captured by ukrainians had tainted ammo and was deliberately left for the ukrainians for this reason. I mean it worked in syria, no reason it wouldn't work now.
Thermite grenades…what wonderful toys.
Malfunction?
Maybe a round didn't fully clear the barrel and they tried sending another round downrange
knowledge get! now off we go!
Maybe drop a frag down the tube with a shell in the breech and no powder charges behind it? I am just guessing I have no artillery experience I was a medic attached to mechanized infantry most of my career.
My gun always had 2-3 extra firing devices(pins) so stealing that might not be the key, but damaging the aiming mech 10/10. Also cutting/ emptying the hydraulics would make the tube sag and be useless.
I can strip an AR platform with my eyes closed. But I don’t know how to remove the firing pin from an artillery platform. Is there a video out there that shows that kind of thing?
COME ON CAPT. WE WERE ON THE ROAD FOR LONGER VIDEOS!
Show us what to shoot on a helicopter
Thanks man. I needed this
Also keep in mind the exploasing from shooting has to push out a shell
A grenade down the tube has nothing blocking the barrel
Great and informative video as always Preston!
