When it leaves the tranport ship they unload it pointing in the direction of the city they want to capture, and hope the plans don't change til the war is over.......    :joystick:

that thing looks like it would be very easy to drop a 500lber on.

With all those guns, it looks like it could killshoot itself.

All that and its still easily knocked out by a hit to the tracks. Far better to have 3 or 4 tanks moving independently than that thing.

I prefer ones that actually existed, like the T-35.

Both are big enough that they would get stuck all over the place.
The first one is so long that if there is more than a 5% grade change it would break its own back traversing it.

On the second one that 45mm gun in front is not worth the weight it adds.

In the context of the times in which it was produced, the 45mm AT gun was hardly worthless.  But obviously a multi-turreted configuration was ultimately a dead end.

Soviet T-28 Medium tank. The prototypes had a 45 mm gun installed, with 2 smaller turrets with 7.62 mm DT MGs.

looks like the tank that Humphrey Bogart used to drive around the Sahara in. Movie was on the other day.
