I couldn't help but notice the hand crank for the turret is pointed out in the first diagram. Does this mean we'll be able to use it if the turret is damaged?
Need... damageable... brass catcher bag...Will each of the components listed be damageable separately?
You always use that hand crank for fine tuning.
Well spotted. That hand crank was there solely for the loader to help turn the turret if the power traverse went out - while it is very smooth doing it manually (yes, I've done it), it is also slow. The gunner has a lever on the traverse gear on his side which engages/disengages the power traverse mech for fine tuning on the aiming.How can the gunner use the hand crank if it is on the loader's side?
