    Yep, that sounds and looks the same as it did in the 80s - except for the driver's display is new. The driver is supposed to have a thermal sight also. Same engine though. When we first got them the manual said to not drive the tanks unless the engine had warmed up for 5 minutes. That went to the wayside real quick.

      Everything up until the stick part is true. For the most part. That would require the turret crew to turn the turret completely to face the back of the tank to then open the swing gate and poke the driver. Just seems impractical. Never happened to me. I can't speak for others.
