Why the Russian T-72 Tank Turret is Flying in the Sky?

Ғылым және технология

But the question is, “What causes Russian T-72 tanks to shatter upon impact, with their turrets thrown a significant distance from the tank's body?” The current phenomenon, commonly referred to as the "jack-in-the-box effect," involves a devastating explosion that occurs when the heat or shockwave from a blast triggers the detonation of all the ammunition stored within a tank. This explosion generates an intense overpressure, propelling the tank's turret straight up into the air.

    Sounds like everyone missed the Leopard 2 that exploded near the tree line during the offensive last week that set an all time turret height and hang time record the first time. It's small but you can see it spin like a boom-a-rang, go straight up possibly twice has high as any other, seemed to almost stop in mid air at the top and then came down. The turret popping off is of no significance. After a tank is hit and penetrated and molten metal and fire enters the turret the crew is most likely severely injured or dead. Then the ammunition burns or explodes weather the tank turret stays on or not doesn't really matter a slight difference on maybe a crew member getting out or not. The purpose of the extreme low profile of the T-72, Auto loader and ammunition carousel is to not get hit in the first place. T-72, T-80 and T-90 still the best all round tank for war in eastern Europe 125 mm gun, fast auto loader, 45 tons good mobility, 300 mile range, can snorkel under 15 ft. river obstacles along with BMP's that can swim. M-1 Abrams 120 mm gun, 72 tons, poor mobility, poor range, as low as 100 miles, needs lots of fuel trucks, needs bridging equipment to cross 5 ft of water, is now over weight for US bridging equipment, recovery vehicles and trailers. Bradley's can't swim overweigh now but aircraft aluminum hull to save weight catches fire and burns melting entire vehicle down to the ground. It's TOW missile is wire guided and vehicle has to stop entire flight. Russian Kornet anti tank missile fired by man, vehicle or helicopter has more then twice the range

    I am not a chemist or a physicist, but, in all probability and visibility, the stronger the temperature and pressure of the explosion, the higher the departure of the tank turret of any tank, not only the Soviet one, as practice and facts show... When you gain something, you lose something, and vice versa... It often happens that when hitting any tank of any country, even if the tank does not explode and the tank turret does not fly high, the crew will feel a loud sound and shock wave along with flying fragments that will cut flesh and break bones, plus high pressure on the body, eyes, ears, heart and brain, and in addition to this, there is also fire... And all of the above can lead to serious injury and death... Therefore, which is better - a slow death or a quick one? Consequently, an instantaneous strong explosion leads to a very quick death.

It forces the explosion backwards instead of towards the cabin. Who cares if it is quick and painless, survival is of upmost importance. No good soldier wants to be a metal coffin, high survivability means less anxious soldiers, which means better fighters..
