Ever since playing WoT 3 years ago, I am starting to appreciate tanks and naming them.  It would be nice if they had the Muse. Thanks for sharing.

Vert nice, love the tanks, Thanks for sharing. I believe the first successful tank was made by Renault. Could be wrong.

Well now so brilliant considering only German army used magnetic antitank mines during the period they applied Zimmerit on their tanks.

But if the Allies ever adopted the idea they would have already been protected.

I met the Mighty Jingles there and a few other locals. It's a great place to record tanks. The show just keeps getting better!
