He's from the Norfolk Liberation Front, clearly.

SammySammSamm that is fekkin awesome!! A sabot round I think, armour piercing.
Even Firefly Shermans had to get well within the very lethal radius of the Tigers main gun to have a chance of a kill and usually then it would only be to knock a track off.
Shermans were known as "Ronsons" as just like the lighter they "light first time (they were hit) every time".
Shermans were also known as Tommy Cookers by the Germans because they would burn when hit. Not an example of a good tank.
This, unfortunately, is a good tank:

Gotta be a Challenger for me.
Though in it's time the German Tiger was the top predator on the fields of Europe a great tank that really looked the part and struck fear into the men on the ground , which is surely one of the main reasons for tanks in the first place.
The Leopard tank is also quite impressive.
The trouble with the Tiger was that is was a very complicated and unreliable piece of kit - they just couldn't make them fast enough and many broke down before they saw action.
The Russian T34 on the other hand.......
This is a tank!!!

Every Allied soldier mistook every German tank for a Tiger which I suppose reflected its fearsome reputation. It was a great tank - but plagued with problems and very expensive to produce. Hindsight suggests Germany should have stuck to a basic tank or two rather than waste valuable resources on technically superior but ultimately flawed machines. Panther was superb though.....
This is a Sherman!

Everyone knows the Germans made the best looking tanks:
I was wondering (yesterday)- the one in the Imperial War Museum in London with the hole popped through the side/rear- did it vapourise any Germans inside?
The biggest thread to allied tanks was surely the 88 (turned towards the ground instead of the air) as demonstrated in France?

the Russian anti tank dogs attacked Russian tanks tho...
Centurion, entered service in the '50's, still used on ranges to tow targets about till lately, in tank terms that a hell of a life

I always like the tiger tank, saw one in a tank museum in France, easily the most impressive tank there (and there was a lot) except for this one:

That was huge.

Nice ex-pat, also Bovington (UK national tank Museum) has a running Tiger I.
D'oh, just noticed the number on the turret of ex-pat's tiger I, 131, that IS the Bovington Tiger, right here in the UK, AFAIK only half a dozen complete examples exist in the world, and this one is the only example that still goes 🙂
You guys really have to stop worrying about the size of your cocks
haha you just made coffee come out my nose 🙂
Here is a picture of mine I took yesterday:-

CFH, what is that tank getting huge air off of the berm? Showed the pic to a mate down the pub tonight who's into anything like military or tech stuff, and his reaction was ‘**** me!’
[pedant] That's not a tank, it's a self-propelled gun [/pedant]
No it ain't, it's a tank destroyer, a Jagdpanther. If you go to the imperial war museum in London, they have an assortment of little allied tonka tanks, a Matila and a Sherman and I think possibly a Grant and a Tetrarch, can't remember exactly. Nice little things, like vans with guns on. And then in the corner there's this monster, a house on wheels...
Just watched that clip of the Tiger being taken for a spin at Bovington. I think I would have checked the weather forecast before taking it out of the shed.
why? it ain't the wicked witch of the west.. it ain't gunna melt, it's a fricken tank!
The Italian Vespa tank was pretty formidable. 8)

its not a huge tank, but the thought of that thing coming at you in the heat of battle if you were in the infantry is somewhat disturbing
I remember looking after an old tankie of some thirty years service, who had seen action in the closing six months of WWII. His recollections of duelling it out with German tanks put the fear of God into me.
Well I did'nt expect this thread to explode 🙂
I painted my wee beastie, [Sorry Zulu] not Urban Camo next time. The barrel was busted and now replaced with an old masonry nail.

Much, much too late. Sorry.
ah, a quick search on the previous page might have been in order first...
on the 1st pick will that blokes head not get knocked off when the turret rotates?
one of my developers used to be a tank driver (chieftans).
biggest problem when moving is that the gun is self leveling so as you point the nose up a hill the barrel lowers and bashes the driver on the head. It's why they tend to travel with the gun pointing backwards or the driver tucked away and looking out through a port hole.
A few from my trip to the Saumur tank museum in France. Last August.

The challenger turret pops up over the driver's head but at the speed it rotates it must take a while to get used to. but in combat you put the hatch down, lay down and look through mirrors. The inside's a dangerous place when the turret spins. We had a go with the royal scott dragoons and one of the loaders said he knew someone who lost a nose when it span around. Would not want to spend 24 hours in a box that small.
Check out the panzer Maus. or the designs for this:
