Depending on the model, either a crew member or a mechanical autoloader retrieves and loads the ammunition into the gun’s breech. Manual systems require a soldier to physically handle and insert the shell, while autoloaders perform the task automatically. Once the shell is in place, the tank is primed and ready to fire. | History In Pictures | Facebook
