This US Tank Will Change EVERYTHING - Here is Why! Known as the Ripsaw M5, this is the world's first fully automated battle tank. Armed to the teeth with various sensors and weapons, the Ripsaw can perform a wide range of functions on the battlefield. This video will explore how it does that and what it means for future conflicts the American military will fight.

    BUT WAIT - there's more!!! So you don't forget order before midnight tonight. Free set of Ginsu Knives!

    Hasn't the war in Ukraine just proved a hundred dollar drone can destroy any tank?

    These brothers had very short lived tv program. They were entertaining to watch.

    Everyone is forgetting that no war is won without boots on the ground. autonomous devices are simply support weapons. Support weapons need support and that is boots on the ground.
  • @EverettVinzant
    They should make a 105mm towed field artillery version with an autoloader. That would be the ultimate shoot 'n scoot.

    I defer to negative comments, by this simple idea; Use it Wisely! It has abilities not seen since the Hellcat Tank-Destroyer. It's almost 'Quiet' and could get much more silent. It has a Low Thermal Image, as well. And, lastly, It's a LOT QUICKER than most other craft out-there. The Studebaker 'Weasel' was a Recon Favorite in WW-2, because, it was amphibious, quiet, quick and Nimble, and 101st AB used it to great advantage, even-though, it was usually Un-Armed! Give it GUNS, and, the Battle-of-the-Bulge wouldn't have been.... This Is, that; and in a Modern war-front, it DOES NOT ALWAYS need a Human on-board. Not a Game-changer it was a decade ago, but, it'll add to Flexible Response.

    Well good comments all. No system is perfect and can be destroyed, but, I can see many uses for the Ripsaw and it can save lives by being unmanned. I like how it has its own drone helicopter and ground crawler. Perhaps an anti-drone weapons system can be developed as an add on package. Creativity and imagination are key. Very fine start.
  • It would not survive a 50 caliber rifle or machine gun. It's an oversize snow mobile.

    The ripsaw was first seen in the GI-Joe Movie with the Rock. He drove it. It's a Cheaper than a tank or training of a soldier. Drones and FPV's have Changed the battle field like how tanks did 100 years ago. Must Keep Up!

    Tank no IFV, the turret says it all. Also love the Sherman like suspension.
  • @echomande4395
    My first thought is whether the Ripsaw can mount the Skyranger 30 or 35mm AAA turret. A good and mobile anti-drone and anti-helicopter 'Flakpanzer Junior' would certainly be welcome, especially if it can be remotely operated ir work semi-autonomous.

    The mechanics on MadMax Fury Road had no end of trouble with theirs. Called it an absolute piece of shit.
  • @MrJturner74
    Worst case scenario. These are deployed against American civilians piloted by kids who think they are playing War Thunder.
  • @DigD97
    Yeah still the drones will get it
  • Thought the Ripsaw was derived from a Mad Max bullet town vehicle.
  • This effort would be a great help in the Ukraine where the ground conditions change dramatically. The speed and weight getting the vehicle over mine fields without damage. A wheeled mud version would do great too. Seasonal restrictions are a reality in the Ukraine.
  • Ripsaw is a very valuable autonomous vehicle fit for different usage by fire department,swat,and police departments in various States.
  • As long as the Army doesn't think it has an autonomous fighting vehicle, this thing should prove useful. Used as a remotely operated vehicle, it would be able to perform a variety of tasks without putting a crew in danger.
