BESIDES the Abrams just exactly which tanks that do not have an active defence system don't have a carry capacity?


I've made a note to look at the issue when I have time but I know it's been looked at before . You may note that carry cap still exists with the Challenger 1 but not the Chally 2 becasue of it's active protection systems. ( I have also made a note to check this as well as some tanks like the Chally 2 with VIRSS have no carry capacity but the Swiss Leos with the same system do and I'm betting the Swiss OOB is in error on this issue )

AFAIK the reason the Abrams doesn't have a carry cap even though it has no active defense systems is do to training doctrine. The point is in the case of the Abrams tank riding is not done in RL and why it's not done in the game even though the normal reasons it's not done in the game don't apply and in the day of the M48/M60 this COULD BE accepted pracitce it stopped being so with the Abrams. ( something to do with the blow out roof panels on ammo storage on the turret ? )
