Engine problems can be different and have meny levels. Not all of them lead to the total impossibility of movement.
Immobilized the same thing - can vary from temporary bogged or fixed from time to totall immobilization.
Statistics can show current state and memorize whats happen.
thanks friend! I will now know what to do!
This is totally unrealistic (flying turrets) is most cases, for BTRs is absolutely unrealisic if you dont hit it from huge guns or bombs.
true words, perhaps only of large calibre high-explosive on the side can cause the turret to loosen, however for other tanks perhaps?
HE shells have fuses and in most cases dont explode outside thin shields. In case of BRDM HE shell broke armor and explode inside armored car and as result _can_ kill crew (but not guaranteed) even in turret.
At other side Canister shell on shots with BMP-1, has an instantaneous detonator and explodes normally on the shield. And gives shrapnel field, some fragments in your case is penetrate armor in the fueltank area and led to leakage of fuel.
well say! perhaps something like this?
BRDM is very small, I surmise even sabot that will completely oblitirate armor and fly across this even that will cause saddening losses to the crew, it is very tight! what passes the thin protection of this vehicle has a high chances of impacting crew! but in BTR case it is very long and somewhat high causing wide space between the men, atleast this mean one man dies when struck through by the enemy, the rest may survive unless if catastrophic explosions or heavy spall or landmine etc..
by the way I have forgot to apologize about my horrible english, and thank you for your input and help, this has been most fruitful
