The Tank Biathlon semi-final round takes place in the form of relay competition, with three crews of each team making a total of 12 runs with a length of about 3-5 km. (Photo: Vietnam+) |
In each lap, the crews performed a race of speed, 125 mm cannon, 12.7 mm machine gun, and coaxial shooting according to 4 scenarios specified by the organizers. (Photo: Vietnam+) |
After completing the test, the crew members have to leave the tank, run quickly over a distance of 100 m to get the other crew on the next tank. (Photo: Vietnam+) |
The most difficult race is to use a 125 mm cannon to destroy a tank simulation target because the gunner has to aim at the target while the vehicle is still running. (Photo: Vietnam+) |
