Hmmm...makes me wonder about the equivalent of a Magach or Sabra in Central Europe in the US Army (say the M1 ran into problems maybe):

Magach:

Super T-34's hull + Panther turret =  the finest tank of WWII (possibly)

The Daimler-Benz entry into the Panther requirement was basically a T-34 copy.



The VK30.02 (DB) powered by a MB507 diesel motor, with external leaf suspension. Combat weight of 34 tonnes and a max speed of 54 kph.

Upgrading M60s in central Europe

Could also be done to re-conditioned M48 hulls?

Granted the M60 hull is more modern......

Love the Bradley with the gun turret.

The original design for what became the XM8 light tank had that turret mounted on a Bradley hull (both built by FMC). Have to get out me copy of Hunnicutt and scan it in...

Putting Reality hat on...I think some of those might be hard pressed to even move under the weight of the turret...

I must admit that 6 wheels Humvee is not my invention as I saw this in the 1st Whatif forum. I do not remember author's name.

BTW: Does any of you know the weight of Bradley's turret?
