        Too much mental energy spent on gadgets and too little on practicality. The S-tank did not only have a hydraulic suspension system, it also had two different kinds of engine.

        tbh the definition is of mbt is mostly doctrinal anyway.
        The S tank was actually pretty competitive in its day, remember that before stabilised turrets tanks couldn't hit shit while on the move anyway.
        It was also the first tank to use a turbine engine.

          Gun stabilizers existed before the S tank. The Sherman had a gun stabilizer, ffs.

            Vertical stabilizer, not two-plane stabilizer.

              Fine then; the Centurion Mk.3 had a two-plane stabilizer in 50s, which the Swedes operated.

        The reason for choosing the design was the result of studies from WW2 which showed that almost no shots hit lower than 1 meter on the tank

        Very unconventional Swedish tank, the Stridsvagn 103. The cannon is completely fixed to the hull, and the gunner aims it by pivoting the entire tank. It never saw combat and was eventually replaced by Leopard 2's. It is one of the few AFV's made after WW2 with a hull-mounted cannon instead of a turret and looks very derpy

      IMO it's not a tank but it makes sense for a defensive war in the 80s / 90s. Hell it would probably still to pretty good against Russia today seeing they have frick all PGMs.

        Yes

        Also I think it was only fired once with a crew inside and it lifted the front of the tank off the ground and the crew said

        "No we are not going to test it with the gun aiming to the side next"

        The IS-3 was a failure and raped by super shermans in the six-day war.
        Every russian tank was a technical disaster. Every tank of the IS-series had more breakdowns than a Tiger II. Russia had only two good designs: T-34 and T-54.
        The rest was just propaganda because they won the war.

          T-72 was good at it's introduction, it's just been kept about 40 years too long.

            Anonymous

            There was a reason why the russians never used the T-72 in the afghan war. Because they knew that this tank was not good enough.
            There are many books from the 80s about this matter. Even german DDR ones and that if it comes to a battle with west germany and the nato bloc that they should use T-62 and T-55 tanks first because better reliability.

          egptian IS-3As never fought M50s or M51s

          the only battalion committed to battle fought M46s
          their armor did prove effective, with even HEAT leaving non-penetrating hits on its front, but still lost the engagement with several destroyed to flanking
          the rest were disabled by operational losses
          M51s did destroy T-55s however

          T-34 was equally garbage and is glorified because they won the war. The Russians were losing 9 T-34s for every German tank they knocked out.

    The T-35, a Soviet heavy tank with 5 turrets (3 with cannons, 2 with mg's). As you might expect, they were too heavy and unreliable to be truly effective in combat.

    The radio and sloped armor are good features, and a decent french medium tank with Christie suspension would certainly be interesting, but I don't think it'd do particularly well

        • 2 years ago

          Because it would be horrifyingly complex from a mechanical perspective. In a turn while driving forwards, each of the four tracks would need to be moving at a different speed, necessitating four separate transmissions.

          • 2 years ago
            Anonymous

            Couldn't you just make two of the tracks undriven, just there to carry the weight?

            I guess not because you might get stuck on things if your drive tracks come off the ground. But still.

      Pros are it has good deflection on the turret and and lots of space for the gun. The cons are the the turret could simply be shorter and you woulf not have a massive shot trap in the middle re all everything below the mid point of the turret is creating a shot trap.
      Lower it and it kind of prints a modern taks sillowet.

    How, uh, how do you see out? The driver has three slits, there's what appears to be a hole for a stereoscopic rangefinder, and then what? Is that it? There's no cupola, no vision blocks, no periscope?

    assuming it was ready in time for 1940, it would have performed similiarly to other french tanks of its time
    a straight overmatch against germans tactically due to its impressive for its day hard stats
    but operationally inferior due to bad soft stats, poor vision for the turret, a 2-man turret, slow top speed
