Why no real life equivalent to the Tumbler?

Them some sexy fucking vehicles

It would be completely pointless to any military in every theater that isn't a parade ground.
So, like how it was described in Batman Begins.

Fuck me, i would DD the shit out of a panhard if there was any way to get them stateside

I always called this the Hummer-gini

Helicopters do the same thing but better in every way.

Because it would be completely pointless, and non-plot armor weighs tons.
Otherwise what you're asking for is a basic bitch humvee which every military on earth is fielding some variant of.

That warthog looking thing above would be over 50x cheaper, and harder to detect. Also wouldn't be blown up instantly in conflict with decent militaries.
>non-plot armor weighs tons
That doesn't mean it can't be fast.

>front wheels connect to the outside with exposed hub on inside
If that thing is 4WD the articulation and drive shafts to the front would be a nightmare.

>for ramming things
>obviously weak front end and exposed tires
no, if you were going to ram something, you'ld put a ram up front like police cruisers.

Some actual military IFV have exposed tires up front.

I love it.

Because they'd have no good role

>designed to break/slip through defenses at high speed and fuck with the enemy
Aloha snackbar then.

The M1 Abrams is one of the heaviest tanks and it’s still very fast.

>basically a fast low capacity IFV designed to break/slip through defenses at high speed and fuck with the enemy
Fast
Low capacity (crew of 2)
Fucks with enemy
>APS and other tech to make up for light armor
Has light armor and can take small arms fire
>mount an ATGM and M61 Vulcan on it because that would be awesome
Has ATGM and a 30mm cannon

that thing flipped over and i saw a guy burn to death in one of them

savimbi said somethinges it's too late to save a man so we let him burn to death

kek at filename, looks just like the champ

Explain this now.

It's a Rhodesian Leopard patrol vehicles: basically take the concept of a V-hull for surviving mines, and just push the slider to its maximum. So keep the body of the vehicle as high as possible from the road and make the bottom of it two 45º angles to maximise the effectiveness of the armor and to deflect as much of the blast as possible. Carried 9 plus a driver.

And what about the circles?

I was gonna say, thing looks really top heavy. That, combined with the open top makes it a bit of a deathtrap. Not sure what problem they were trying to solve, maybe they didn't want it enclosed because they're all stinky.

Most rhodesian soldiers were black so white commanders never bothered teaching them complex manuevers like that.

>YFW they respond by planting the IEDs at 45º angles

No the circles on the roof of the vehicle.

It looks like someone added roll bars to their vehicle without knowing anything about them other than their name.

>roll bars
You mean the vehicle is supposed to roll on its body?

I've always wanted one of these fucking things.

>still very fast.
Yeah, until it runs out of the fucking jet fuel it runs on.
Oh also runs so fucking hot you can't be anywhere near them without feeling like you're going to have a stroke.
Oh also so fucking heavy that if you tried to do recce with one you'd have a trail so fucking beaten down that a blind person could follow it all the way back to where it was manufactured.

OP is a retard, but their specifications were basically for armored recce, they need to be light, fast and small. Nothing else works:

>heavy fast and small means they can't carry enough fuel
>light slow and small means they're slow
>light fast and large means they'll get seen

The Abrams only works because each tank has at least a thousand people constantly working to drop them off close to where they're going to operate, keep them fueled and keep them maintained.

Fuck I dont fucking know. Like I said, the person who put them on probably didn't know what the fuck they were doing.

>MFW using doors that rely on an easily damaged rail.

Don't worry, the doors probably just pop off if they get hit anyways.

Because it would serve no useful purpose if it was an actual military vehicle instead of something Hollywood.

Is that a forward mounted gun? WTF

I think those are just to allow people to easily exit via the open topped roof if the thing loses both sets of wheels and goes tumbling.

Bear in mind this is also 4 wheel drive, with a gear shaft going out of the engine at the back up into the V-hull, across then down again at 45º to power the front wheels.

that's never stop the military before HEY-YOOOOO

...

Is this the half-life 3 combine apc?

looks like the first stiff breeze would knock the front tires off though, its supposed to survive multiple mine hits?

Truth

WAAAAGH seal of approval.

Yes. The suspension has intentional weakened parts, so mines can blow it up without damaging anything thats important, and the vehicle could be fixed win few hours. Thr goal is to protect the crew, not the vehicle.

Sad truth is that rhodies had no way of making mineproof suspension. If you make it hard and sturdy, all you will get when mine blows under it is mess of hard and sturdy bent metal thats now impossible to fix.

why are you so fucking retarded

you're one of those fags that think mechs are a good idea, because they have legs so must be more 'mobile'.

that front suspension is not going to survive rough terrain. the vehicle literally pushes it's tires into obstacle via the front braces. where the fuck is the ground clearance. fucking idiot.

>still lower than a V hull with that fancy floor.

time to kill everyone in your vehicle then. well done fuckface.

>M61 then it's spot on.

An M61 weighs over 200lbs for the gun, then 400lbs for the feed system, then the weight of the ammunition on top of that, then the weight of the mounting you're going to use to operate it. You're not getting a Vulcan on that thing. And as pointed out, actual armor is fucking heavy.

The Tumbler wasn't designed to do any of those things. It was designed to look cool in a movie.

>Ultra heavy meme car with zero ground clearance
Yeah it's all fun and games until this happens in the middle of a battle
youtu.be/XWxxuG2Ru9c

>it goes until it runs out of fuel
>a combustion based engine gets hot
>its over 60 tons
wow, you could almost say that about any modern mbt...

also, anything only works if it has a fleet of things maintaining it, whats your point?

So that's why they got the ballpit.

>tfw no ground clearance
>tfw no room to fit a gunner
>tfw no armor rated for IEDs or RPGs
>tfw no troop carrying capacity
>tfw no modularity

I'm sure it would be a hoot to fuck around with until it turned into the world's coolest looking coffin
