Bangladesh: Two Soldiers Killed in Tank Firing Accident in Chattogram

[I*R*A]

Trust me we are very happy that bangladesh is buying from you guys , despite having a decent economy they are stuck in sub standard stuff , its unfortunate that their soldiers are the one who are the suffering like this.

We are not keen on pakistanis too , its you who brought "Indian Tatooz" here , is it Cringe , Randi Rona or dehati aurat who cry about India everywhere ?

indians are writing articles and blaming Pakistan for it. Nobody said anything but an india tatoo in Bangladesh felt the need to blame Pakistan for it.

I do not know how you guys with millions of gods to worship get time to hate Pakistan .. for us it is cringe because it really feels like an ugly smelly jealous b*tch chasing you everywhere.

2. Bangldesh army used the new munition on a tank that has no containerization of tank rounds, no separate compartment and directly blame the munitions ?

3. Tank is as old as Bangladesh indepence

4. No matter the Chinese upgrades its not 3rd or 4th gen tank so dont expect Chinese could do much with this.

5. Pakistan has been using these same rounds for years and there was no issue with it

6. POF successfully exports tank rounds and conventional artillery to over 40 countries across the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and the Far East. International militaries procure these rounds because they offer premium heavy-armor penetration at a fraction of the cost of European or American alternatives. The only drawback is its weaker penetration then EU or American alternatives.

7. The Reality of "Bore Prematures": When a tank barrel ruptures or explodes internally mid-fire, it is technically known as a barrel burst or bore premature. In professional militaries, it means barrel life ended but was used anyway.​

This isn't bore premature.

Seems like the probable cause was 'back flash", wherein when a shell is fired, some of the heat energy (in the form of a bright hot flash) escapes back through the breech.....it normally burns soldiers inside the turret and cooks off any ammo stored there.....such incidents are common not due to old vintage of ammo, but mainly due to improperly-made ammo casings and shell base (manufacturer fault).

But we don't know if it a Pak or Chinese ammo. Form new batches procured few years ago or the old ones now being spent for training.

This isn't bore premature.

Apologies you are right. I revisited old articles and barrel life doesnt cause bore premature. My bad.

No hard feelings, but if these guys are so upset about the ammunition/shells that they have to write long posts specifically to target Pakistani standards, then they should simply stop buying from Pakistan and rather go buy from India or China. If the ammunition/shell quality was really poor, then we might have seen such incidents happening in Pakistan as well during the war on terror ops on the Western border. Similar case happened during the Thailand-Cambodian war where Chinese VT-4 tank barrels were exploding, yet no body could come up with proper evidence as to the root cause.

The root cause was because they were using tanks as howitzers which it is not designed for
