Shockwaves carry more force in water. The pressure-differential would collapse your lungs and possibly give you a brain hemorrhage.

A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

thats why the tank crew goes in a small submarine inside the water filled tank smh
4d chess
the matroska tank
To the point that the actual submariner response to a hostile diver is one ping of active sonar. Which hits like an explosion.
Which is why I got so pissed when I told my dad that active sonar was bad for the whales and he suggested that they just put their hands over their ears. Gosh Dad, you don't understand anything!! Whales can't put their hands over their lungs!!
Whales can straight up kill you the same way. They don't because they know to keep their voices down. Friggin' magic, man.
anon is not concerned about brain damage
Using water is a waste of space and weight.
Tanks are thirsty boys, so we use diesel fuel instead. Same ballistic benefit and drastically increased range.
Rheinmetall, my dm's are opened fyi
I remember hearing about an APC where they were experimenting putting diesel in the hull as extra armor to reduce weight. The base idea works pretty damn well, until you realize the vehicle is going to go up in flames anytime it is shot with something more than a rifle.
diesel is nonflammable under normal atmospheric pressure
Too bad high explosives create nonatmospheric pressures?
Tanks are already heavy as fuck
/k strik3s again
if you think about it a little bit, hit your head a couple of times and blend the neutrons in your brain, you can kind of imagine a water filled tank as a world submarine
so obvs its best attack would be imploding on itself
closest to that, weren't some western tanks storing ammo submerged in water?
