Post tanks. Self propelled guns tolerated
Gonna immediately post Chinese just to annoy some of the retards on this board.
>>65295449Raging seething commie chink hater here.post moar, know your enemy as the pre commie chink once said.
I like some of the weird post WWII chinese tanks and tank conversions
>>65295435ok
>>65295515chat is this real

We gave up on tankettes too soon, they seem like a fantastic idea

a jet propelled gun is a sef propelled gun
>>65295449other than their weird rifle, this board likes chink shit
>>65295708
>>65297107I hate chinkshit, actually. It tends to be bland leaning on ugly. >>65295449 is a perfect example; it's just a a T-72 with a generic boxy skin. Ironically, their small arms (including their weird rifle) are the only Chinese weapons I like, probably because they actually have an aesthetic.
>>65297255>skirtshow does that help
>>65297512Are you asking about the concept of skirts, or this case in particular?
>>65297306I do find it extremely hilarious that everyone except Russians managed to figure out ERA layouts with good coverage.
>>65297512Those skirts give it HEAT resilience comparable to a much, much bigger vehicle.
>>65297512It provides coverage to the tank’s stockings.
>>65295449Dark hands typed this post.

BOOM
Need more freedom tanks.
>>65295435Local FT. Poor thing is sitting outside, just rotting.
>>65301311Its turret. Found it in some bushes nearby.
>>65301311>>65301315Local? It’s just laying around? That’s kind of awesome.
>>65301370Yeah. The Germans occupied it during the war, then the Norwegian military used it up until the 90s or early 2000s. Then it became a public area of sorts. There's a group that runs the place and they did a lot to fix up and maintain the area, and even built a mini-museum there, but I think they ran out of funding during Covid, so it never opened, and things started to deteriorate.There are a lot German bunkers in the area, along with old cannons, some shells from Gneisenau, and a German WW2 searchlight.It's really fucking sad to see it all rust out in the rain. I've been thinking of asking /k/ for a way to help find a way to fund it or just for general expertise to fix stuff, and I've been thinking of volunteering.
>>65301370Basically, it's like a mixture of a park and an open air museum, but with no one actually working there.
>>65301370Last picture. No need to derail the thread any further.
>>65301447>picWhat tank or gun is that pic taken inside of?
>>65301511
>>65295453>eight vehicles in this image>only two of them are russian-madeThis really illustrates just how crucial lend-lease was.
>>65300766>small hatch with HVSS>regular turret with 76mmHow?Some postwar export variant?
>>65301711oh wait its IsraeliI'm retarded
>>65301601shouldn't have supported the wrong side
>>65295435Tanks with commander enclosed cupolas are so comfy looking to me. Even though they suck.

>>65295560Swiss Pz Hb 66/74 "Geschütz Trägerfahrzeug"What you're seeing is a carrier carrying three spare barrels for self propelled howitzers.

>>65301517>ZOG
>>65301441That's a crying shame. I hope you figure out a way to get some funding or volunteers, anon.
>>65295602There was a 210mm designed as well.
>>65295775>@0:28That could not have been pleasant inside.
>>65297107You have that exactly backwards.
>>65302502love these

>>65298114Overrated and the guy who supposedly was a "tank" ace on it was a pathological liar who ascribed the efforts of entire divisions to himself and used the fact there was no records or even a country to fact-check him to peddle his own legend.

>>65306789They really are just units from RA2.
^^^nice
>>65307532
>>65295435I used to want to be a 19K in the past, but then I realized that being a tanker is probably hell in a day to day basis.
>>65306786>Do you want a sabow with that?
>>65301311Is that idler wheel wooden?? Or is it just the metal decaying like that?
>>65307545
>>65307552always wondered about those turret roof M2HB pintle mounts on M24 Chaffees — were they easy to use?looks awkward on the rear edge
I took my dad to the museum of American Armor for Father’s Day, I got a few pictures.
>>65313613Oh right I forgot this stupid site rotates mobile photos for some reason. I don’t feel like dealing with this shit right now.
>>65295449dunno how PLA equipment always looks so bland and indistinct. the uninspired designation system they have doesn't help at all, either.
>>65295449thats japan, or as we call it, nipon
>>65311444
He cute
>>65311181Yup, you see that correctly. Most FTs had steel-rimmed wooden idler wheels. Some foreign-made models like the M1917 and, i think, the Fiat 3000 used solid steel but most Renaults used wood.

Singapore should have called their german-made tanks Lions. Haha..
>>65295775Leman Russ Battle Tank, my beloved...
>>65320176That color looks so sexy on the Abrams.
>>65303106I know there's world war one footage of a tank being shown off to the King, and after it comes down hard going over a hill a couple guys stumble out and salute because all the others in the tank got knocked out
>>65323301Methinks something is afoot.
>>65304647Argentinians put a Model 1968 recoilless gun on one, apparently. Bongs put their QF-2 (40mm) on it too and then put a 3-inch (81mm) mortar on another. Germans put 20mm Flak 38's on one. And Pak 36 too. Pak 35/36 L/35.6 (ö) “Böhler” too (which was a Cannone da 47/32 with a L/35.6 barrel, pepper box style muzzle brake and had a slightly greater performance). They then made a specific vehicle to carry three Panzerschrecks, didn't fire from the vehicle, but still, they made it a specific designation. Italians put Breda M37 on them instead (and made a copy of the vehicle itself).Americans tried to improve it but made it more mechanically unreliable and carried less stuff. Canadians used it as an arty tractor instead.
>>65305726>jeepers creepers, where did you get those peepers?
>>65325293>even flatter fuckwoah
>>65325294I would not have wanted to be inside the turret of that.
>>65295486What the fuck am I looking at? Wasn't 18-pounder a howitzer?
Type 90 nippon sensha
>>65326853Yup that's what they did. Strapped an old 18pdr howitzer to the top of a Stuart and call it a day. Brits were fucking Orks when it came to modifying their vehicles.
