It takes Zimbabwe forever to finish the course & they have a hard time climbing the hill. On their 3 runs it took them 65, 70 & 91 minutes to complete the course. I suspect these had to be the best crews from that country to compete here too. The Chinese tank sure can move quick, must be for running from battles, lol. Just joking to my Chinese comrades so dont blow a load. You can see this at the 33:07 mark......... Tank Biathlon Featuring crews from Zimbabwe, Iran & China Competition among Tank Crews July 30 — August 13 COMPETITORS 3 crews from each team (each crew using its own tank). START Separate with 1-2 min gap (4 tanks on the race at once). CONDITIONS Each crew is to run three large laps (7-9 km) with three firing sessions: 1st lap - gun firing three rounds (target #12 "Tank"). 2nd lap - AA MG firing (target #25 "Helicopter"). 3rd lap - coaxial MG firing (target #9 "AT grenade launcher"). RESULTS Race results of each tank crew are counted by summing total distance time and penalties. Twelve top teams in the Individual race are permitted to participate in the semi-finals (Relay race stage). Tank biathlon is a mechanized military sport developed by the Russian Military with some similarities to the sport of biathlon. It is supposed to utilize the complex training of tank crews including their rough terrain passing skills combined with the ability to provide accurate and rapid fire while performing maneuvers http://eng.armygames2016.mil.ru/ Partaking tanks drive a three-lap route of 6–10 km. During the first lap, crews fire at targets positioned at distances of 1,800, 1,700 and 1,500 m. In the second lap, different targets imitating an anti-tank mortar (RPG) squad and an infantry unit are fired upon. These targets are at a distance of 600–700 m, and must be engaged with a 7.62 mm coaxial machine gun. In the third lap the tank crews targets a target shaped like an anti-tank gun and ATGM unit by use of the turret-mounted heavy machine gun at a distance of 1,200 m. One or more misses leads to an extra penalty lap of 500 m long. On the final lap tanks have to go through various terrain obstacles; an obstacle missed or improperly traversed adds 10 seconds to the crew's final timing.
