Inside a Military Tank Recycling Plant – The Powerful Way Armor Is Melted Down

Описание: Ever wonder what happens to a 60-ton Main Battle Tank when it retires? It doesn't just rust away—it gets fed to the most powerful machines on Earth.

In this heavy industry documentary, we take you inside a massive military recycling facility to witness the brutal and mesmerizing process of decommissioning a Main Battle Tank. From the "Boneyard" to the inferno of the Electric Arc Furnace, watch as heavy armor is washed, disassembled, sheared by hydraulic claws, and melted down at 3,000°F to be reborn as new steel.

This is destruction physics at its finest. No music, just the raw sounds of heavy machinery.
