Egypt decided to leverage its existing inventory of T-34/85 when looking for a Tank Destroyer to mount the World War II era BS-3 100 mm anti-tank gun. Additional armor plates were added to the turret and additional recoil mechanisms were installed. The additional turret extensions actually extended the turret beyond the hull roof giving the T-100 a distinct profile. By the time the T-100 was used in combat by the Egyptians against the Israelis in the early 1970s, the weapons systems showed their age and were forced into a largely defensive role.

The E 50 Ausf. M is a German medium tank. The German Army demanded that the E-series tanks had transmissions positioned in the rear. However, the E 50 and E 75 tanks used the Tiger II engine-transmission compartment, which allowed engineers to work faster, but made rear placement of the transmission impossible. The E 50 Ausf. M tank was a redesign of the E 50 project with the transmission placed in the rear.

French, British, and Czech technology bring this mechanical monster to life. Use its solid weapon to strike hard and true. Defenders are heavily armored fighters. High defense and HP means they can hold their ground, but this comes at the expense of mobility.

Object 268 Version V Russian Tank Destroyer. A tank destroyer based on the Object 730 (T-10) tank. Developed in the early 1950s. The project allowed a gun to be mounted in a rotating turret, enabling all-round horizontal fire. Most ammunition was placed in the rear of the turret in order to improve crew operating conditions. The project was cancelled, because expensive and complicated modifications of many basic components were required.

The Dreadnought KV-2 is a KV-2 with a powerful 152 mm cannon. The Dreadnought KV-2 is a Soviet Heavy Assault Tank that sports massive damage with mobility that is unusual for a Heavy Tank. The Dreadnought KV-2 is the upgraded version of the reliable KV-2

Introduced in 1985, the T-72B took the advanced composite armor, light weight, and low profile of the Soviet T-72A and coupled them with even more powerful features. A new gun, enhanced stabilization and fire control, and the addition of the 9M119 anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) made the T-72B a more lethal vehicle, while enhanced armor and a more powerful 840-hp engine gave it improved defense and mobility. The T-72B also featured full nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) protection through shielding and a crew compartment overpressure system.

The Tiger II is a German heavy tank. The most heavily armored tank carrying the most powerful anti-tank gun. The vehicle's drawbacks included an overloaded suspension and engine-transmission group, as well as excessive general mass. When engaging enemy vehicles at long range, the Tiger II had an upper hand over any other vehicle in terms of the gun and armor protection. However, due to the excessive mass of the vehicle, relatively low durability of the engine and transmission, and small total number of vehicles built, the Tiger II did not have any significant impact on the course of war.

TCM AGS is an experimental prototype of an airborne light tank, presented by Teledyne Continental Motors to a 1981 US Army competition. This futuristic-looking unit featured the most radical and innovative technical solutions among other contenders. The chassis of the prototype is Teledyne's proprietary design, a highly mobile tracked platform with a front-mounted engine, which involved the use of an unmanned turret. Initially, the light tank was supposed to use a 75mm gun with an automatic loader, but during development, the gun was replaced with a 105mm gun capable of dealing with modern Soviet tanks.

The T-100 LT is a Soviet light tank. A project for a light tank with the T-100 armament. Jointly developed by Research Institute No. 100 and GSKB-47 (State Specialized Design Bureau) in the mid-1960s. The vehicle featured decent armor that could protect it from 90-mm shells (in case of frontal impact) at any distance. The T-100 LT is a very small, very fast, and nimble light tank, making it very stealthy. Poor gun characteristics prevent effective sniping, but its ability to hide can negate that by allowing it to remain hidden at closer ranges. This tank is the final word in passive scouting.

The Object 907 is a Soviet medium tank. The decision to start development of a next-generation medium tank simultaneously while improving the T-54 was made on July 13, 1953. Development was carried out by Research Institute No. 100. The project was submitted in February—March 1954, and, in April 1955, the hull of the new vehicle was tested for shell resistance. However, the project was later canceled due to its complexity.

Sturmpanzer - German Tank Destroyer. During the early 1940s, the German army began researching the possibility of an artillery vehicle that mounted a short-barreled 15cm howitzer. The goals behind this idea were twofold: supporting the German infantry’s advances and dominating in urban combat. Early designs for such a self-propelled gun proposed using a Panzer V chassis.

The first prototypes of the Kanonenjagdpanzer were produced in 1960 by the Hanomag and Henschel companies for the FRG. Mass production continued until 1967. A total of 770 vehicles for the Bundeswehr and 80 for the Belgian Armed Forces were built. In 1983, the vehicle was deemed outdated. According to engineers, some of them could be equipped with 105 mm guns, but the vehicles were eventually converted into artillery observation vehicles or anti-tank guided missile carriers. The Kanonenjagdpanzer (also known as Jagdpanzer Kanone 90 mm) remained in service in citizen military forces until 1990.

Gorynych KV-5 this ancient dragon will strike fear into the hearts of its enemies. The development of the KV-5 was started in June 1941, with design evaluation completed by August. The project was canceled because of the Siege of Leningrad.

AGeneral T 27 developmental variant of the Czechoslovakian post-war light tank that featured an autoloader gun. It existed only in blueprints. The vehicle was similar to the T17 light tank project.

SU-122-54 - Russian Tank Destroyer development was started in the summer of 1948. The T-54 tank was used as a basis for this tank destroyer. The vehicle entered service in March 1954. Mass production was launched in 1955, with a total of 100 vehicles manufactured. The principal configuration of the vehicle is similar to the configuration of WWII assault guns.

The VK 100.01 (P) is a German heavy tank. A version of the Maus from June 4, 1942. The 120-ton predecessor of the superheavy tank existed only in blueprints and never saw service. This vehicle was only an intermittent stage in the development of the Maus.

The GSOR 1008 is a British tank destroyer. A project for a tank destroyer with an oscillating turret in the early 1960s. Developed within the British GSOR program to increase the defense and mobility characteristics of vehicles. The development was discontinued after preparation of a set of blueprints and the production of a dummy vehicle.

The Valour T95/FV4201 Chieftain the British Army’s Royal Tank Regiment, the oldest tank unit in the world (first into battle with tanks in 1916 during the Somme offensive). The exclusive camouflage scheme on the Valour T95/FV4201 is inspired by the “Streetfighter II” project’s camouflage and the Berlin Infantry Brigade urban camo pattern, used by armed forces since the 1980s. The Streetfighter II project aims to improve the urban combat capabilities of the Challenger II MBT, currently in service with the RTR of the British Army.

The development of an advanced tank for the Swedish army was performed by Sven Berge. The first drafts of the unique vehicle were developed in 1956. By 1961, the design of the new vehicle was finalized, and a wooden prototype was built. Later, the first Strv S1 prototype was built and used to test a new type of suspension, which allowed for vertical aiming of the rigidly mounted gun. The Strv S2 prototype was developed by the end of 1962. Both prototypes became the basis for the mass production of the Strv 103 tank.

Scorpion 90 - British Light Tank. An updated version of the FV101 Scorpion, the Scorpion 90 traded the original vehicle’s 76mm gun for a 90mm Cockerill Mk. 3 gun capable of holding 34 rounds of ammo. Also incorporated into the Scorpion 90’s design were an integrated fire control system (FCS) and a laser rangefinder, though the welded aluminum hull of its predecessor remained. Malaysia and Nigeria are among the nations to which the Scorpion 90 was exported.

The M41 Walker Bulldog is an American light tank. A further development of the T37 experimental tank. Underwent trials in 1949. In 1950, the contract for mass production was signed. The tank was produced by the Cadillac Motor Car Division, a division of General Motors.

The WZ-120-1G FT is a Chinese tank destroyer. Variant of a tank destroyer based on the Type 59 medium tank (plant designation WZ-120) that entered service in 1959. Existed only in blueprints.

T-10 - U.S.S.R. Heavy Tank . The development of the vehicle was started in 1949 by the Design Bureau of the Chelyabinsk Kirov Plant under the supervision of Joseph Kotin. At the design stage, the vehicle was designated as Object 730. In 1950, a preproduction batch of 10 vehicles was launched. In 1953, before the tank entered service, it was redesignated as the IS-8 and was adopted for service in the second half of that year under the designation T-10. The number of produced vehicles varies from 2,500 to 8,000 according to different sources.

The AMX 50 120 is a French heavy tank. A prototype of the AMX 50 tank. Developed in the early 1950s under the influence of the Soviet IS-3 and T-10. The tank featured enhanced armor and a 120-mm gun in the oscillating turret. Compared to its predecessor, the AMX 50 100, the AMX 50 120 is less mobile and significantly larger. It reaches very high speeds downhill thanks to its high top speed, but the biggest difference is that the AMX 50 120 is that it's equipped with a 120mm cannon, hence its name. This cannon concentrates its firepower into a 4-round drum and makes short work of tanks below the 50 120's tier. As with all the high tier French heavy tanks, the 50 120 has weak armor, a long reload time, good mobility, and an excellent gun. The 50 120 retains many of the features of the AMX 50 100 and is a natural evolution of its playstyle.

The Kanonenjagdpanzer 105 is a German tank destroyer. The first prototypes of the Kanonenjagdpanzer were produced in 1960 by the Hanomag and Henschel companies for the FRG. Mass production continued until 1967. A total of 770 vehicles for the Bundeswehr and 80 for the Belgian Armed Forces were built. In 1983, the vehicle was deemed outdated. According to engineers, some of them could be equipped with 105 mm guns, but the vehicles were eventually converted into artillery observation vehicles or anti-tank guided missile carriers. The Kanonenjagdpanzer (also known as Jagdpanzer Kanone 90mm) remained in service in citizen military forces until 1990.
