what are "spent uraniam shells" ?...........as for "spraying the crew inside" do you understand the difference between , kinetic and chemical energy rounds when refering to tank warfare?.........Its ok if you dont its just I believe if you want to state something as a "fact" then you should at least have the courtesy either to read it up first,or at least ask someone on the forum who is experienced in such matters.............for instance if I wanted to know about the Isle of White........I would ask you however I dont, so I wont
