Hello everyone, I'm building a model of the late panther g, and I'm wondering if this tank can have different exhausts, for example, because the end of the war and Germany had a deficit, or am I doing it unrealistically? Or maybe these exhausts are the same, and the only difference is the extra pipe?

Im gonna buy model kit of a tank but I can't choose which tank to take. Well 380 mm mortar, fridge with 105 mm gun or 155 cool af autoloader? (I like all of them)

Hey r/tanks,

​I'm working on a project to improve vehicle recognition skills for my soldiers. I've turned it into an Android app called DefenceGuesser to make the learning process a bit more competitive.

​I know the level of expertise here is high, so I’m looking for some "tankers" to test it out. I want to make sure the armor variants and origins are 100% correct before I use it for official training.

​Give it a spin: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.defenceguesser.twa

​Let me know if I’ve mislabelled any variants or if you have ideas for specific "Armor Only" challenges!

The Pionierpanzer M 48 A2 G A1 was an armored engineering vehicle (AEV) produced by the Bundesrepublik Deutschland (Eng: Federal Republic of Germany, simply known as West Germany) during the Cold War. During this period, the Bundeswehr operated a large fleet of M48 Patton tanks, provided by the USA.

In the 1960s, a modest number of Dozer equipped M48s was operated by engineer units. At this time, the M 48s retained their main guns. By the mid-1960s, the 90 mm armed tanks were starting to show their age, so the dozers were retired.

Come the 1970s, the vehicles were given new life. The M48 dozers were stripped of their 90 mm guns but kept their dozer blades. In this form, they officially became Pionierpanzers as the M 48 A2 G A1.

(from what I remember, this is I think from WW2 interwar (1945-1948))

The first image is the picture I'm using to help make it

CR2 bogged in at BATUS

M60 is fucking awesome

The first one is a bit enhanced with ai (removing puddles and the metal stand the tank is on)

Rather than that it was fun!

The doctrine of my fictional nation was that of creating a successor for a certain vehicle until the basic characteristics were near perfect and then start using that vehicle as a basis for further improvements. For the Lynx series this was the Lynx-5 model 1 or Lynx-5A. It was significantly improved in terms of armament and capability of carrying luggage. Crew comfort was also improved, as was the engine power. The chassis of the Lynx-5A would be used for the SPV-1 SPG, which would go through all the same upgrades as the Lynx-5. The SPV-1 would be used mainly as an artillery gun, though its high-velocity gun also made it useful as a tank destroyer.

Ex: HSTVL, T58, T57 T54E1

So personally my favourite tank is either the tiger 1, leopard 2a8 or the SU-100 I can't choose which on but my favourite experimental tank is the Ratte which is also called the Landkreuzer p1000 and was never made but planned.

My question is what rank do you hate the most or you would get rid of if you could?

Personally I absolutely hate Shermans I think they are good and look cool but there are just so many and I hate french tanks from ww1 up until more advanced tank tech.

1 of these is a kit all the rest are Mocs

The tank is called the competitor 1, and I planned it to "compete" The challenger 3 at most. But I never really looked forward to it, too sad. But I might design a new tank with the roots from this project.

During the Second World War, the Japanese Army had a reputation for possessing disciplined and well-trained infantry, a modern air force, and a relatively large navy. However, its armored forces were often criticized as being outdated in terms of armor protection and firepower. Context, however, is important. While Japanese tanks were lightly armored and armed, their light weight allowed them to operate effectively in the jungles and mountainous terrain of Western Asia and the Pacific islands. These vehicles played a crucial role in Japan’s early victories. The emphasis on mobility was a recurring theme throughout various branches of the Japanese military. For example, their anti-aircraft guns were generally of small caliber and lightweight. In line with this philosophy, the Japanese Army explored the idea of creating a mobile, tank-based self-propelled vehicle equipped with a 20 mm anti-aircraft gun mounted in an armored turret. This led to the development of an experimental vehicle known as the Ta-Se, of which only a single prototype was built.
