It's an M109 Paladin in the former West Germany doing firing exercises. The country is densely populated, so these HUGE silencers were developped to keep noise levels down for the citizenry
Cool, huh?

Considering you're in a tank and the silencer is likely made of thick sheetmetal with some kind of light aluminum or magnesium baffles (a guess), I probably wouldn't be too concerned. Tanks survive whole buildings falling over on them all the time.

No, it's really not photoshopped.

My son observed a 300m underground test range in Switzerland designed for anything up to and including tank guns.

Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.

I would like to see how it feels standing next to that when it goes off
