But seriously, this tank gets over looked way too much, for it's time it was revolutionary.
And the funny thing is it only became known in the west at around 1985, years after the T-72!

Panzer 3 with long 50mm gun may not win in firepower or armor, but it wins my heart. Such a cute little tank.
>>
>>34501936

Changing the definition of a MBT to call it one...

It is a specialist armored gun, not a MBT by a long shot. Does not meet the maneuver requirements to be an actual MBT. Is it a good ambush tank killer? Maybe, no combat record but should fill the roll competently, but is not a MBT.

they only made sense because they could fit a relatively large gun for the chassis and because of wartime production (being easier and cheaper to produce)

a tank with a turret is (afaik) superior in every aspect (possibly aside from the ability to fit an extremely large gun, but that's irrelevant today).

Why did the brits insist on constantly building shit tanks? I mean, there's been a lot of good ones, but Conqueror wasn't one of them.

Yes the US did build the hull of the tank but the turrets were British and so only used by the British.
Here is another British tank.

Bullshit. All the brits did was replace the loaders hatch and cut the back out and stick a metal box on for the radio. It's their changes, but you can hardly say there were british made.

Is the T-90A the only model with the red "eyes" ?
>>
>>34502996
I figure that some issues were the cost of the development, the fact that diesels of the 20+ liter displacement are ungodly heavy compared to gas engines, so there was a perceived notion that they were relatively underpowered for their size, especially with the primitive fuel injection and forced induction systems of the day. The final and most likely biggest issue is the time and material it would take to retool and set up new assembly lines for diesel engines when you're already running out of both as-is. And the risk that the factory would be bombed as soon as or before production starts while having been useless for nearly 6 months while being converted to diesel or turbine production.

For gas turbines the biggest issues of the era were just reliability and power for the size that it would be. For a full powertrain using a turbine the reduction of rpm from turbine to a transmission, which was most likely something that had never been done before, granted it's a relatively simple reduction gearing setup but that's just what we say nowadays.
Oh and not cooking anything around you, so then you have to safely route the exhaust with minimal constrictions and safety concerns for maintenance crews while still keeping major modifications to a minimum on the Panther hull to facilitate rapid factory conversion or even field conversions.

It was the worst project for Germany at that time, and it was made poorly and rushed to production. It was unreliable, complicated, way too big and way too heavy.

>At that time, minesweeping was done by soldiers walking slowly over the dirt shoulders of the highway with hand-held mine detectors. During this slow process, convoys would build up into a dangerously inviting target for the enemy. As a result, a faster method was improvised, the "Thunder Run", in which one M48 lined up on each side of the road, with one track on the dirt shoulder and the other track on the asphalt; then with all guns firing, they raced to a designated position miles away. If the M48s made it without striking a mine, the road was clear and the convoys could proceed. In most cases, an M48 that struck a land mine in these operations only lost a road wheel or two in the explosion; seldom was there any hull damage that would be considered "totaling" the tank.

>A KV-1 or KV-2 tank (accounts vary) advanced far behind the German lines after attacking a column of German trucks. The tank stopped on a road across soft ground and was engaged by four 50 mm anti-tank guns of the 6th Panzer Division anti-tank battalion. The tank was hit several times but fired back, disabling all four guns. A heavy 88 mm gun of the divisional anti-aircraft battalion was moved about 730 m (800 yd) behind the tank but was knocked out by the tank before it could score a hit. During the night, German combat engineers tried to destroy the tank with satchel charges but failed despite possibly damaging the tracks. Early on the morning of 25 June, German tanks fired on the KV from the woodland while an 88 mm gun fired at the tank from its rear. Of several shots fired, only two penetrated the tank; German infantry advanced and the KV opening machine-gun fire against them and the tank was knocked out by grenades thrown into the hatches. According to some accounts, the crew was buried by the German soldiers with full military honors; in other accounts, the crew escaped during the night.[17]

>The 6th Panzer Division Kampfgruppe commander General Erhard Raus, described it as a KV-1, which was damaged by several 88 mm anti-tank shots fired from behind the vehicle, while it was distracted by Panzer 35(t) tanks from Panzer Battalion 65.[h] The KV-1 crew were killed by pioneer engineer unit who pushed grenades through two holes made by the gun while the turret began moving again, the other five or six shots having not fully penetrated. Apparently, the KV-1 crew had only been stunned by the shots which had entered the turret and were buried nearby with military honors by the German unit.[18]

If your tank is only going to be defensive then you can save a lot of time and money by only armoring the front. It's generally considered cheaper to just build one tank for offense and defense these days, though.
