Wonder how well that works in real life, dropping ordnance down a tank turret barrel.

It might work if the breach was open and they were reloading. Not sure the grenade would role down the tube though. Plus they only have a 3 or 5 second fuse. The guy wouldn’t have had any time to climb out.

Arabs dropped a grenade into a T-72 and blew it up. 2:06.

They didn’t try it in ‘Saving Private Brian’ but that’s probably because the German tanks’ barrels were uncircumsized. Or something.
