  • Yes, yes I did. But even with 360° view, he still had somewhat limited shooting angles through the gunner slots…

    But you make a mighty fine point. What’s the best defense against a homemade bulldozer tank with nothing but cameras to see from and drive with? Spray paint the cameras…

    The thing had more than one weak point they could have used to their advantage…

    Something like that yeah. He built the ~22 ton outer bulletproof shell with 22 tons of thick steel plate metal and concrete. He built it on some sort of hanging hoist over the bulldozer, only to be lowered once he was ready to go cause the destruction he did. He designed it without an entrance nor exit, it was a suicide mission and he knew it.

    What finally brought his rampage of destruction to an early end was when the bulldozer ran over some of the debris of his carnage, that some chunk of debris managed to bust the radiator, which ultimately took out the engine. So, clearly the radiator was a weak point all along…

    My thought regarding a grenade wasn’t about trying to take the dude out directly, but rather to disable the bulldozer and go from there.

    If you haven’t seen the documentary movie about it, you really should…
