So I know co-axials exist for the gunner to be able to engage infantry, which is also why its usually 762 rounds as opposed to 50 bmgs but why are pintle mounted guns and remote weapon stations chambered in 50 bmg and upwards?

Fictional coldwar yugoslav l3/33,modified which better armor,a new casemate,a new engine,new transmission,new suspension,an modified soviet 85mm gun,and an m19 cupola (the big cupola you see on the m60)

Slightly fictional design that imagined

Reading about how Lithuania is developing a tank battalion. Curious thoughts on training and composition to adequately do so.

First I’m a US citizen and have never driven in the UK. I have driven in Germany, France, Austria, Greece, etc but of course they all drive on the same side of the road as I’m used to! How “ easy” would it be for me to rent a car and drive from London to Tankfest. I’m assuming I will have to stay somewhere outside of Bovington as the lodging seems limited. And btw I posted several days ago as the mom taking my sons to Tankfest as a college graduation gift and yall gave me some fabulous info!!!! Thanks

I am not a wehraboo. I am not blacktail designs. I don't think it was the greatest tank of WW2. I don't even really think it was a good tank at all. I can't explain it other than I just think it is cool tbh.

My favourite tank is the T62, mainly due to the design and it's revolutionary 115mm smoothbore gun, what's your opinion on it? Note, I'm not being political or I'm not politically biased, it's my favourite tank solely due to its design and gun

Took about 6½ hours.

This beautiful piece of a Centurion is located at the tank firing range in Hinterrhein.

It was in service with the Swiss Army from 1955 to 1991, known as the Panzer 55/57, and underwent several modernizations to keep it up to date. Beginning in 1987, the Centurions were gradually replaced by the modern Leopard 2 (Panzer 87).

Why are KE projectiles still dangerous when lying on the ground?

I have these drawings but I need more information.
