This tumblr was originally conceived as an answer to xplanes.tumblr.com, more tankular.
Look for more prototype tanks from all ages in the future.

Tank close call.
Japan to cut Type 74 MBTs. Seen here is a Type 90.
No clue. Tank of mystery.
Edit: It's a Stridsvagn 74 from Sweden. A modernized (for 1974) WWII era strv 42.
Another view of the cutaway T-55 at the Parola Armor Museum in Finland, showing an unusual feature of the T-55, the fixed machine gun firing through the glacis plate, operated by the driver.

Shermans couldn't go toe-to-toe with the German heavies, but worked great against the pitiful Japanese tanks.

“The Yanks mop up on Bougainville At night the Japs would infiltrate American lines. At Dawn, the doughboys went out and killed them. This photo shows tank going forward, infantrymen following in its cover.” March 1944.
M1 Abrams assembly.
An all-tank revue inspired by x-planes. This my personal effort to increase the tankyness of tumblr. No profits made or wanted. If you find your photo here and wish it gone, just ask.
