I guess it could be nice looking, but do you want your kids ingesting depleted uranium dust and motor oil at the playground?

Depleted uranium is a newer type of tank round so your decomissioned playground tanks shouldnt contain any. The motors are drained so there is no oil. Im sure you cant get in them either. Anything of importance or value is gutted its just a hull. Also depleted uranium is depleted....who cares.

Uhhhhh, I don't think you know what you are talking about.

half the radioactivity of regular uranium and a biological halflife of 15 days, sometimes dust is found at impact sites and in tank armor. WHO states that munitions will cause no reproductive, developmental, or carcinogenic effects to humans...... what that part?

Or the abrams tanks using them sense 1988 which is neither russian, hardly used on display as a decommissioned tank, and has not fired rounds on russian tanks?

IOW why would/how would a russian tank have DU dust in it.

I think you werent thinking with your brain.

Those tanks may have been used in live fire exercises as targets or suffered from flame damage. Why do you think these procedures exist?

Geeze Mr. MMM, do you hate kids? Sheesh, stop being such a wet blanket and let them play with the tank, will ya? :)

I guess WWII relic does not contain uranium...

[–]GregorMendel -3 ポイント-2 ポイント  (2子コメント)

There is a chance it was upgraded post WWII with depleted uranium armor, or that this tank is post WWII model (I'd need a military historian here to help identify this make/model tank)) which carried DU shells.

But regardless, would you let your child play around on an old junker car?

Oh, I dunno. In childhood we were looking for blanks at construction sites or had been inspecting factory dumps in order to find some potassium nitrate, rubber and bearings. Nobody's died, as far I remember.

Dying from immediate overdoses of toxic material is a different (though related) outcome of some toxic doses. Causing reproductive issues, birth defects, a variety of late onset cancers in conjunction with different dementias, those are consideration worthy outcomes, IMO.
