Stick to GM nuts swinging please.

Alright, so here we go again
So we have 300 or so African pirate rebels, and now they have a bunch of tanks!
So they learn how to drive them. w00t!
And in about 10 hrs, they are just stationary gun platforms because the supply of gas and other maint. is not there.
So again...to the rebel's, these tanks are more $$$ then wepons to them. They can sell the T72' to some nation that has the support that a T72's need to opperate in the field, and then the rebels can take that cash and buy more things like guns, in which will work better for the kind of fighting they do.
If the rebels are smart, they would hook up with another goverment to sell them to or trade them for wepons they can use, such as RPG's, sub machine guns, heavy wepons, and perhaps higher technology.
We arent talking about a standing army. We are talking about rebels who move fast, fight fast, and flee.
A tank would be the last thing they really need. But, they will probably think like you, and start shooting things with it, break it, and not now how to fix it. And now its useless.
Great, good plan there commie.
