A battleship sized cannon on a tank? via Bayou Renaissance Man.


Read Peter's article here.

A couple of things.  Kinda makes 8in guns look small don't it?  Speaking of which, I wonder what type of ranges we could get out of that sized gun these days?  Add rocket assist to the projectiles and I bet we would get ATACMS type range.

Second, OH GOD PLEASE!!!  Please don't let World of Tanks see this.  They love Russian armor and this would one shot even a Death Star!  Artillery already owns me on the game and this would make a bad situation worse!

Cool vehicle though.  My search for obscure armor continues...especially since its obvious that nothing new is going to come out of the US.

  1. being a Russian based I'd bet they already know about it, but figured the maps just weren't large enough.
