Drawback #3 was the weakness in the linkage which could let the aim off by up to 4 mils.Mobiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05256982406940327658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030145265861917845.post-4123236223439834592019-01-23T01:58:14.911-05:002019-01-23T01:58:14.911-05:00What was the T8 used on?What was the T8 used on?Iron Drapeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07585842449654170007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030145265861917845.post-68372950813076542822019-01-22T17:19:06.031-05:002019-01-22T17:19:06.031-05:00Does that document show the light transmission per...Does that document show the light transmission percent?Mobiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05256982406940327658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030145265861917845.post-18487954112458276552019-01-22T10:56:10.533-05:002019-01-22T10:56:10.533-05:00https://drive.google.com/open?id=1O-fE3Sl8Vg9cL2Ef...https://drive.google.com/open?id=1O-fE3Sl8Vg9cL2EfcG_Cqlww9FWBViE4<br /><br />Статья об американских танковых прицелах начинается на 8 странице.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09622237223229485503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030145265861917845.post-84421099044119431352019-01-22T05:26:17.374-05:002019-01-22T05:26:17.374-05:00Петр, а можно оригинал статьи?

Generally, early Sherman tanks idea (persiscope gunsight only) look good from armour pretection view (lack of gunsight hole in front armour), but in my opinion, during WWII lack of telescope gunsight can be problamatic. BTW, IIRC Sherman tank get telescope gunsight in late 1942/early 1943.<br /><br />BTW2. During early and medium stage of "war on east", Soviet tanks have panoramic gunsight. This gunsight can work as all around view device. Generally, in this gunsight tanker have all around view without head rotation (eyepiece don't move during rotation of device "head"). If I correctly understand design of this device, in Soviet WWII panoramic vision devices (gunsight or devices used only for observation), eyepiece also don't move when objective move vertically (up-down looking). That's true?AKMShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08038804619662765120noreply@blogger.com
