I live above the arctic circle.

Not that I have filmed tanks driving through the snow I have many times filmed (with a simple hand held digital camera) friends driving snowmobiles while myself driving one). When you look at the footage it doesn't bounce around all that much...(?)

Trees grow a fair bit up north, but only to a certain height on the mountain sides...

Funny how we are all different my first thought was did the suspension bottom out or was that within the parameters it was designed for. Sure there's several struts but that's 65 tons landing.
As to bouncing about I am no suspension expert but I would think the rebound control is very important in a vehicle of that weight to dampen the movement otherwise it would start oscillating.

Hmmm, I wasn't clear enough, I think.

I meant the camera footage doesn't seem to bounce around all that much even if you record the film while yourself also going across country, even at some speed.

It won't bounce when it's shot from a helo . How else would you see the tops of the turrets ?
