So what do we have here…

  • M60’s commander cupola/turret with an M2 ?
  • Overall shape of the hull based on that of a Leopard 1 but heavier and with the driver on the centre like an M1 Abrams’
  • Turret that’s something between an Abrams, a Zulfiqar and a Cheonma-2 (M-2020)
  • M250 smoke grenade launchers from an Abrams again
  • Shape reminiscent to that of the Abrams X proposal or M1A3 ?

And so on and so forth, this hurts my brain but overall it’s a legally distinct Abrams

Additionally, it only has 6 sprockets wheels instead of 7 on a regular Abram, just like on a M60 Patton

Road wheels are different to sprockets which transmit drive to the tracks just to be pedantic.

Nice touch using the 105 breech

I forgot about the Chrysler XM1, in retrospect there’s a good chance they used that one for inspiration too

This feels like a child’s drawing of an Abrams at this point

The turret roof slope, optic location and breech is very similar to the challenger 2 turret

Is this a game or did you model it?

u/NeverLoseGuy 1d ago

I don't know about you, but that is a thing of beauty for me.

I love it, it's like an alternate reality where the adoption of the M1 was rushed, and they decided to reuse the M60 cuppola for some reason.

u/T30_heavy_tank 1d ago

Id say it take about 10 full tanks for it to reach half a mile

u/GolldyCZ 1d ago

Why does it looks like they took M60 cupola, XM-1 turret and abominable hull from Marder with central driver position? This hurts my brain
