  1. Did you read the topic? I wasn't making a point about the house, just saying that DU rounds are used as anti-personnel weapons.

    Like, I said, if you meant the HE rounds are meant to kill people better as opposed to cost -- which I was meaning -- then I agree. But, it also depends on cost efficiency and what ammunitions are available at the time.


  2. But in the default 4:1 mix, as I understand it. There's a video on youtube where non-explosive rounds go straight through a mud brick house.

    Who cares though? If "we're" not there to kill people, then why are we there?

    Unless your point is that a HE round would be more efficient at decimating a slum and killing everyone inside, then I possibly agree.


  3. Thanks but no thanks. I don't take orders from people who never learned to get along. I don't appreciate your tone, and will not be responding to you any further. If you decide to act like a human being, we can discuss this issue.

    I'm getting along just fine. If you have any questions you want to ask, I'm perfectly okay with obliging to answer them.

    I am a human being and I am acting like one. The question was fairly simple. To answer my own question, I would much rather have the DU armour to reduce the chances of any projectile penetrating and causing damage to a tank which I was in, regardless of the radioactive risks. That is my opinion. This is my "tone".

    Since you won't reply, I think it's obvious that in a hyopthetical situations -- when the shit hits the fan -- you'd be grateful for that DU armour.

    About DU rounds being used. Prolonged exposure is entirely the iraq / afghanistani's problem. If they don't move radioactive tanks since the gulf etc or deal with them in some other manner, then that's entirely their fault.

    War is horrible and the after effects are too. Deal with it.


  4. I think that even you can see the idiocy of this insulting strawman argument, and I'm not going to validate it with a response. Put your critical thinking hat on to divine what I possibly could have been saying.

    Answer my question. If you were in a tank, would you want the DU armour or not in a tank battle?
