Yo which tank suspension is most effective?
Matthew Howard
sneaky tonk is still tonk
Gavin Sanchez
What tank is that?
Chasis makes it look like a T-series tank
Charles Adams
British Crusader, if I'm not mistaken. The Brits did like Christie drivetrains on their cavalry tanks.
Michael Roberts
Gah, would never have suspected that was a Crusader, my expertise is in cold-war and modern tanks. Thanks for the clarification.

Finally a thread to call home

The T34-85 is widely regarded as the best tank of WW2. In one incident, an entire company of Tiger 2's attempted to destroy a lone advancing T34-85 only to have all their rounds bounced by the T34's superior angled armor. Said T34 dispatched all the Tiger 2's with a single shot to their frontal armor that was constructed of pig iron. Wartime records indicate that the T34-85 had a K/D ratio of 50,000,000:1. The single lost vehicle due to the crew drinking too much in celebrating their 1000th Tiger kill, and then driving their tank into a 20-feet deep river of German blood. Fear of the T34 was so great, that Germans would immediately surrender upon sight of them. The prisoners were then forced to lie down, and promptly run over by T-34's to avenge the 6 million Jews. Many historians contend that the Allies only won WW2 because of the T34-85, and by extension, the T34-series as a whole.

yes

I have to admit, the swedes do know how to keep something up to date.

The Swedish 4th panzer regiment (Wartofta company) has finished their participation in Trident Junction 18. The last day of combat reports 42 enemy vehicles destroyed and losses amounting to 1 mobility damage.

who was the enemy simulated as?

Active electromagnetic. All the advantages of active hydraulic, without the regular annoyances of servicing fluid-based systems in the field.
2 problems: 1. needs shitloads of power to operate, so it can only be used on tanks with turboelectric (or similar) powerplants, of which currently there are none; 2. it's still fiddlier than regular fixed-damping suspension.
Easton Butler
Despite all that is said about the superior tank, almost all modern MBT are equal, leading to tactics and strategy to decide the outcome.
So they just practice these instead, assuming which hits will do what, because they assume Russian or chinese tanks in being equal to their own, sonthey use test data which they gathered from firing on their own tanks to show what effect the hit will have.

What do you all think about T-xx series glacis plate shapes?
whenever i look at them I think it's wasted potential, they could've used all the space in front of it as armor so you'd end up with a Chieftain/Abrams-style glacis plate with more LOS thickness where you could put NERA armor in and with more interior volume.
Liam Foster
Do you guys like upgraded old tanks used by nations other than the ones they originate from?
Nathaniel Turner
Comrade what if we take Kapitalist Sweden Strv-103 and make a mighty Soviet tenk out of it?
Is good idea, make it happen
Michael Ortiz
They were going for something like that in the 80s with the object 187
Jace Bennett
The TR-85 isn't actually a direct upgrade of the T-55. It's a different vehicle. If you look at the side, you'll notice that it has 6 roadwheels to the T-55's 5. It also has a different engine.
Ryan Reyes
But it's based on a T-55.
Adam Gray
Guys any of you knows the armor values for the c1 ariete with added armor ( WAR KIT)
Jace Barnes
Very correct, but a large percentage of parts from the T-55 don't fit on it, so it stands to reason to be conssidered a different vehicle.

>T-xx series
Lol.
>glacis plate shapes?
Their only shortcoming is that cleavage formed by driver's optics. That was fixed in Object 187 (the T-90 that was taken away from us by the lack of funding).
Oliver Parker
Lol, no.
Jose Jackson
Object 490A and Object 477 are much closer to Abrams "brick in the front and paper-thin roof" style of glacis.
Gavin James
It's pretty similar to a Leopard 2

[Kharkiv Morozov Machine Building Design Bureau on military-grade-purity opioids left in Soviet Army med kits in the 90s intensifies]
Adrian Barnes
This opioids infused (post) Soviet Wunderwaffe would perfectly work as some sort of alien enemy tank. It just looks so unusual.
I wish more sci-fi devs used some prototypes that went nowhere as basis for their designs.

The Norwegian tank forces at the start of WW2. Yes, all of it. A Swedish light tank prototype chassis with iron armour. To save money on shipping they made a turret for it on their own instead of buying the existing one.

>You will never be a Soviet space marine screaming "DVESTI! DVADSTAT! DVA!" into your helmet dynamic at the top of your lungs while the autoloader prepares to fire a high-explosive shell with "ZA RODINU" engraving at the aluminium glacis of M13 Bradley supporting yet another futile assault of poor unfortunate mind-controlled souls on the outskirts of New-Moscow shadowed by the great silhouette of Olympus Mons as the tracks of your IS-7 are crushing the chipped skills of a thousand dead zombie invaders into the Martian dust, pale red in the dim sunlight rays of the winter dawn
No one knows this feel, yet it feels so real for some reason.
