Comet tank
« on: April 09, 2008, 08:05:34 PM »
 Sometime in the future it would be nice to see the British tank called the comet. It used a massive 77MM shell equal to the 17 pounder. It had denser armor than the sherman and was called the sports cars of tanks by the british soldiers who enjoyed it in 1945. It also used a armor piercing high velocity depleted Sabo round which we would be the equivelant of our modern day uranium depleted rounds.The comet also utilized a wider track profile than that of the sherman.

  It has been a pleasure to see so many changes in the game and this tank would be awesome. It was britians answer to the panther and the tiger.Britian had nothing that would penetrate tiger armor until the Comet.Historians and the History channel as well as the operators of this vehicle spoke very highly of this tank during the show and to date there are only 12 that have been restored to running condition. Let's keep the game growing with fresh new inovations.
