The T110E4 is an American tank destroyer. In 1954, a conference on future heavy tanks was held in Detroit. Alongside other advanced projects, the Chrysler Corporation suggested a new tank on the basis of the TS-31 project. The main goal was to make the tank fit the Bern national tunnel. Several variants were considered, but the project was canceled.

The M4A1 Revalorisé is a French medium tank. In the 1950s, the M4 Sherman of various modifications was supplied to France as part of MDAP. French design bureaus started modernizing the vehicle with the goal of improving its firepower. This initiative was followed by a modernization program for the Israel Defense Forces (Sherman M51). The tank never saw service in France. The number of prototypes built is unknown.

The Leopard (or Leopard 1) is a main battle tank designed and produced in West Germany that first entered service in 1965. Developed in an era when HEAT warheads were thought to make conventional heavy armour of limited value, the Leopard focused on firepower in the form of the German-built version of the British L7 105-mm gun, and improved cross-country performance that was unmatched by other designs of the era.

Iron Rain developed by the Rheinmetall-Borsig company and designed as a special artillery carrier, the vehicle was designed to carry an artillery system as well as to fire from the chassis. The vehicle utilized the suspension of the Hetzer tank destroyer. Development continued from the end of 1942 through the middle of 1944. However, a complicated design, high cost, and excessive weight led to the project being discontinued in favor of the Ardelt project.

The Tiran 6 Main Battle Tank is a captured Egyptian or Syrian T-62 in Israeli service with a few Israeli modifications. The name "Tiran" has several possible origins according to Israeli sources. For one, it means "dictator" (tyrant) in Hebrew and the tanks were USSR-made, allegedly a reference to Iosif Stalin. The second theory mentions the blockade of the Straits of Tiran was one of Egypt's first acts of war prior to the Six-Day War and, last but not least, the first letter of both the original tank designation and the word Tiran is T.

T41E1 is an American Light Tank. After World War II, the U.S. began work on a successor to the M24 Chaffee light tank. Three prototypes were built around the initial T37 conceptual design; the second prototype was selected for development and renamed the T41. Once the T41 received a new turret and turret ring, it was christened the T41E1 in its final pre-production form. Eventually the tank was produced and deployed in the field as the M41 Walker Bulldog, named after General Walton Walker.

The Kranvagn is a Swedish heavy tank. A project for a new vehicle for the Swedish army that started in 1949. For confidentiality purposes, the vehicle was given an unusual name, KRV, which stands for self-propelled crane (in Swedish). The project was based on the French AMX 50. A lightweight chassis was built and tested; in addition, a dummy with a turret was produced. A prototype was never built.

The STA-1 is a Japanese medium tank. The first Japanese post-war tank was developed on the basis of U.S. vehicles. The STA-1 was developed, taking into consideration Japanese terrain, rail network specifications, and anthropometric data of Japanese tankers. Only one prototype was built, in December 1956..

The AMX M4 mle. 51 is a French heavy tank. The Project 141 was a variant of the AMX M4 heavy tank with reinforced front armor. Development started in November 1949, but the vehicle was never built. The project also included many calculations for different hulls on a similar chassis.

The Magach 5, an updated version of the M48A1 and M48A2 tanks in service with the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), received further upgrades after it was deployed in the Six Day War. In the 1980s, it was fitted with bricks of Blazer explosive reactive armor (ERA) for additional protection.

The G.I. JOE Multi-Ordinance Battle Tank (MOBAT) is one of the GI JOE team’s most advanced ground vehicles. Its high-traction treads give the tank speed and maneuverability, allowing it to roll over the toughest battle terrains. It has a powerful cannon that can pierce the armor of any vehicle in Cobra’s arsenal!

The XM551 Sheridan is an American light tank. Work on the vehicle started under the AR/AAV project (Armored Reconnaissance/Airborne Assault Vehicle) in January 1959. In June 1962, the Cadillac Motor Car Division delivered the first vehicle prototype to the client. The first generation of vehicles included three prototypes. Work was continued, and the vehicle eventually saw service under the M551 Sheridan designation in 1966.The XM551 Sheridan marks the end of its American light line.

Tiran 5 Sharir is an upgraded T-55 tank that Israel captured during the Six Day War and Yom Kippur War received upgrades, fitted with Sharir 105 mm gun. It also has ammunition racks modified to suit the 105mm ammunition, new communications equipment, modified commander's seat, new gunner's seat, azimuth indicator installed, driver's hatch modified so that it can opened from the outside, coaxial machine gun replaced by a 7.62mm Browning machine gun and the cupola mounted DShK 1938/46 antiaircraft heavy machine gun replaced by a 12.7 mm Browning heavy machine gun, new fire control, night vision equipment, electrical system, air-conditioning system, antennae mounts on the rear of the turret, exhaust outlet angled upwards, additional track stowage and fire-extinguishing system installed. It is also known as T-55S.[42]

The Object 277 is a Soviet heavy tank. Developed in 1956–1958 at the Kirov Plant, Leningrad, under the supervision of Joseph Kotin. Two prototypes were produced and underwent trials from 1959 through 1960. A hull and a turret were produced for testing for shell resistance. The development was discontinued in the summer of 1960 due to insufficient development of certain systems and components. In addition, the vehicle did not demonstrate any advantage over the Object 770 heavy tank. The Object 277 marks the end of its Soviet heavy line

The T95E3 was an American prototype medium tank developed from 1955 to 1959. An additional modification in the T95 series, this vehicle was equipped with a 105mm T140 rifled gun.

The Concept 1B is an American heavy tank. From the late 1960s to the early 1970s, under the program for developing a new main battle tank, various designs were considered. One of them was a variant known as Concept 1B with a low turret and manual loading of a 110 mm rifled gun with high ballistics. No metal prototype was produced. The Concept 1B is another oddity from the US Army's arsenal (other than the AE Phase I); the most distinctive feature of the Concept 1B is the sleek and narrow turret design, which was designed to reduce its frontal surface area and protect its gunner who sat behind the gun breech.

Draugen Lansen C is an Swedish Medium Tank. Developed by the Swedish company, Landsverk, for the Swiss Armed Forces. The tank was supposed to feature a Swiss copy of the British 20-pounder tank gun. A full-size prototype was produced to test the developed solutions, but all activities were discontinued in favor of the 30-ton class vehicle. No metal prototype was produced.

The T26E4 SuperPershing is an American medium tank. To increase firepower, a new long-barrelled 90-mm gun was mounted on the T26E1 in January 1945. The prototype was designated the T26E4. Development was discontinued in January 1947 due to problems with the gun and the loading mechanism. A total of 25 vehicles had been built by that time, but never entered service.

The Bat.-Châtillon 12 t is a French light tank. A light tank developed by Batignolles-Châtillon in the late 1940s. The vehicle featured an oscillating turret and 75-mm gun. Never saw mass production. The only tank in French LT line that's not AMX series, this tank doesn't share its equipment with other French tanks so you have to research everything from scratch. However, its play style is the same as most of the AMX LT series. Abbreviated in-game as "B-C 12 t".

The Ferdinand is a German tank destroyer. Developed on the basis of the Porsche Tiger, with a total of 90 vehicles produced in April and May 1943. They first saw combat in the Battle of Kursk (Operation Citadel). Widely known in real life as "Elefant", it is a slow but powerful Tank destroyer, reasonably well-protected for its class, the Ferdinand can be an intimidating opponent & can utilize its armor to engage enemies more closely than most tank destroyers, assuming they are firing AP ammo. The Ferdinand's mantlet is extremely strong, but not invincible, & the rather big target silhouette means that you will have a lot harder time hiding than in the Jagdpanther.

The WZ-132 is a Chinese light tank. The order for the WZ-132 tank was placed in 1964. The design was based on the WZ-131, but with the goal of enhancing firepower and armor protection. A few prototypes were built before the project was canceled in the late 1960s. All prototypes were destroyed during Chinese nuclear weapon testing.

The T32-A Proto is an American Heavy Tank A prototype version of the T32. Development of this tank began in February 1945 and four prototypes underwent trials from the spring of 1946 until the end of the year. Never saw mass production.

The Maus is a German heavy tank. Developed from June 1942 through July 1944, with two prototypes produced, only one of which received a turret and armament. The heaviest (although, thanks to the Type 5 Heavy, no longer biggest) tank in World of Tanks, the Maus is certainly a mammoth tank, with the largest health pool of any other vehicle currently in the game. Combining that immense hitpoint count with some of the thickest tank armor around means that if an enemy vehicles gun lacks any significant penetration capability, fighting the Maus will not go well. However, the lack of sloping anywhere on the tank, except for the frontal armor, can allow tank guns with adequate penetration to punch through the sides and rear with relative ease; even more so if the Maus is not angled properly. The Maus marks the end of its German heavy line.

The AMX AC mle. 48 is a French tank destroyer. A draft project of a heavy tank destroyer, developed in 1947–1948 under the influence of the Jagdpanther. The vehicle was to feature a 120 mm gun as the main armament. The distinctive feature of the vehicle was three 20 mm MG 151/20 machineguns, mounted on top of the fighting compartment and rear. Existed only in blueprints. The UDES 03 is a Swedish tier 8 tank destroyer. Developed in the early 1970s by the UDES research group, Bofors and Hägglunds companies. In 1972, the project was provided by the Bofors company. Later, it was decided to return to the concept with a traversable turret, and development was continued within the UDES 14 project. The Bofors project remained only in blueprints.

The UDES 03 is a Swedish tank destroyer. Developed in the early 1970s by the UDES research group, Bofors and Hägglunds companies. In 1972, the project was provided by the Bofors company. Later, it was decided to return to the concept with a traversable turret, and development was continued within the UDES 14 project. The Bofors project remained only in blueprints. The UDES 03 is the first of the Swedish tank destroyers that features hydraulic suspension, where one can switch between two modes -- Travel Mode, which offers great mobility but sacrifices gun handling, and Siege Mode, that offers great gun handling in exchange for mobility.
