I thinkkk, the fact that it has been made 30 years later, might maybe perhaps have something to do with that
.
none the less, im gonna google my @ss off now for a sec, to see if there is something to say about that
EDIT: 2 sec later:
it might be because the gatlin is 30mm and the yak cannon 37mm
But I think im gonna go for the fact that the empty weight of the yak-9t was 2300kg... and of the A-10 it was 21000kg..
.
same thing: try mounting a flak cannon on a bicycle, think you might notice the recoil a bit more, than on a tiger tank
Does make you wonder what would happen if you mounted the A-10 gatlin of the yak
would it fly backwards ??
