Some Highly Unusual Tank Pics
Permalink   


I think this is new. This gent has unearthed some most unusual photos, including a dummy FT allegedly made in Czechoslovakia, something resembling a replica Medium B or C (some sort of promotional exercise, by the look of it; can't read the sign on top of it), a giant FT replica made of soap, and a rather dubious U.S. Holt-based tracklayer tank.

It's in Russian, but Google can cope.

Sorry if my memory's gone again.

Flabbergasting. Love the stone tank - which evidently did its job in wasting a few attackers' rounds. That UFO/submarine/tank thing is also a hovercraft, perhaps an aeroplane, looking at another shot buried away in a back page which shows a rather large pusher propeller: http://i056.radikal.ru/1007/b6/135a751f66dd.jpg. And is that a helmsman's wheel behind the turret? Ah, James Bond, eat your heart out, your pitiful Lotus Esprit submarine car will be crushed like an insect.
