I have now. My personal favorite prototype tanks are Porsche Tiger and the 38t nA. I think the Porsche design had potential it had thicker armor but the poor quality materials and track width did it in. Not to mention the engine design was flawed.

The transmission would have been even worse to repair in the field then the Henchel Tiger. If the M1A1 had the 105 though. It never got it historically though. Uhhh let's see here. Do you know of the Sherman M60?

The super Sherman that the Israelis made or are you talking about the Chilean M60? the Tiger P doesn't have a true transmission it has electric motors driven by a generator, but yes working on it in the field would have been problematic. The design if applied correctly gets rid of some of the problems that tank transmissions have and there is also no power loss it is all direct to the drive sprockets. Have you herd of the Char B1 bis.

Both the Chilean M60 and the Sherman M50 are the same. The only differences are the Chilean tank uses the 60mm gun while the M50 used the AMX13's 75mm without the autoloader.

So have you heard of the black barron? He destroyed the majority of a British armored column with his tiger and only left because he was out of ammunition if I remember the account correctly.

Haha that's pretty cool and yes. For someone who likes tanks that's perfect. Do you use it any? Like on world of tanks because my unit would think that's awesome.

No. I use Cpt. Wittmann for PC call of duty but that's about it. I could change my WoT account name to that but the last time I tried it didn't work out. Btw I assume you also play Wot?
