@Dazzler, so as a source about tanks performance, you use some idiotic TV shows about conspiracy theories and assassination, where there are nothing about tanks really, not tank experts, no details, just some random claims, that can be considered as taken from a novel like book written by some Pakistani?
I ask you again, what is your education, because it is more and more obvious that you never achieved any degree on university from subjects where capability to seek sources and know what is source and what can't be considered source.
So I tell you, a TV show and a book that is more a novel than scientific work is not a source, and can't be considered as a reliable source of information.
What is more, the only two sources, which can be considered as reliable, are book written by Steven Zaloga, who is known and respected author, and he writes that M1 deal was never finalized because US have a disagreement with Pakistan about it's nuclear program. And the second book that can be considered as serious source, which says that Pakistani officials were rather impressed with M1's performance during tests.
Furthermore I explained that people without knowledge and education about tanks and technology, can confuse what they see.
The standard training ammunition is inert and furthermore, targets used in such tests are simply made from material and targets are just printed or painted on such shields.
At a distance of several kilometers a person that do not have knowledge and good optics, can thing that tank do not hit target, simply because such people expect a lot of explosions when projectile hits a target, which is obviously false assumption.
And these are very logical arguments, based on avaiable materials, you provided.
Seriously, if I would ever use such thinking and such poor sources when writing my licence work, I would never achieve a degree in national security, and my work was about armored fighting vehicles development, so seriously I know what I am talking about.
