Rinoceronte | Italian Heavy Tanks | World of Tanks - WOT Valor
The Rinoceronte is an Italian heavy tank. At the turn of the 1960s and 1970s, a number of countries started developing vehicles with unmanned turrets to improve crew survival. Italian military engineers decided to adopt these innovations, but chose to use existing designs. The turret was based on the German turret from the advanced KPz 3 tank. The hull configuration was also adopted from German vehicles. At the same time, Italian engineers tried to increase the armor thickness to the maximum. To improve the projectile resistance of the frontal armor, it was decided to make it similar to the "pike nose" shape. Development was discontinued at the drafting stage.

Aufklärungspanzer Panther | German Light Tank | World of Tanks
The Aufklärungspanzer Panther is a German light tank. A project for a heavy reconnaissance vehicle based on the Panther tank. The use of the hull and chassis of the existing tank would have significantly facilitated the mass production of the new vehicles; a smaller turret would have decreased the weight and improved the maneuverability of the vehicle. However, the project was discontinued at a development stage.

VK 45.02 B | Germany | Heavy Tanks | World of Tanks
The VK 45.02 (P) Ausf. B is a German heavy tank. Two designs of this vehicle (one with the forward-mounted turret and the other with the rear-mounted turret) were drawn up by Ferdinand Porsche. The tank never saw mass production. It has a thicker frontal armour than its brother, the E-75. It carries the same gun ordinance, but the VK 45.02 (P) Ausf. B has a slightly better gun reload, accuracy, and handling (but worse gun depression) thanks to its turret stats. The transmission is located in the middle, which prevents engine damage from frontal hits, but there is a driver port (albeit small) on the front, and thinner sides. Thus, angling the tank is an absolute must in order to survive.

Comet | U.K. Medium Tank | World of Tanks - WOT Valor
The Comet is a British medium tank. A further development of the Cromwell cruiser tank, this British tank saw service in World War II. A total of 1,186 vehicles were manufactured from September 1944 through to late 1945. The Comet is a tank well suited for flanking, as its armor is neither good nor bad for its class; it won't survive brawls for long periods of time. It sports a couple of advantages over the Cromwell, such as a gun mantlet and lowered profile on the upgraded turret. However, it gets an "almost" inadequate top gun, barely an upgrade over the 75mm HV.

TR-85 | Romanian TR Tanks | World Of Tanks
Originally, Romania had planned to fit its indigenous main battle tanks with an 800-hp engine, similar to the Leopard 1. However, trade restrictions between Warsaw Pact nations and NATO prevented Romania from importing one for the TR-580. As a result, Romania pursued an aggressive reverse engineering program to make its own engine, which it used with components such as a 100mm gun with a fume extractor and thermal sleeve to create the TR-85.

In the 1960s, British researchers at a facility in Chobham developed a new type of composite armor, one that would eventually prove effective against explosive warheads. As successful as it was in its initial trials, however, it needed to be fitted to a vehicle for a true test. The vehicle designed to use this new “Chobham armor” was built in the 1970s with parts from Chieftain Mk. 5 battle tanks.
