Re: Safety rule 2
If the tank is moving FORWARD while the projectile is being launched, the same rule applies to the "muzzle velocity" although the imputed ground speed may be different.
But, it's NOt a net sum game. There are laws of physics dealing with recoil, etc.
Same holds true if you're back-peddling to get home and fire off one last Hail Mary shot in the opposite direction.
reminds me of the "two trains were traveling from Chicago to New York....."
