I will watch over this valley until my captain returns
Synapt
I love this shit.
mustang2733
I already said this before, but I'm making it a life goal to travel around finding these tanks, recovering them, and bringing them home 1/2
mustang2733
to be restored or even repaired to their former glory. I hate to see such marvels being withered away
Futschigama

Tanks a lot!
MagentaViking
One of them have a tree growing out of it, I think they're pretty forgotten.
Deptdint
Makes me think of Bastion

The one in the meadow full of wildflowers tripped my Bastion switch.

Fredfinks

SaintMaceToTheFace
Yep. The hellcat was a tank they ruined
aegis27
Leopard 1, early Sherman, Walker Bulldog, T-34-85, Chi Ha/He?, IS-2, another early Sherman.

I love me some tanks +1

"My engine is broken, my tracks and wheels are rusted. But IS—2 will watch over the vilage, it is what IS—2 was told to do."
BatmansMustache
Stupid question: why would people just get up and abandon their tanks?
TheGreatAndPowerfulSage
Because someone shot them with a tank killer and everyone inside died and/or the tank blew up. Notice the cracked turret on #5.
GadenKerensky
Any number of reasons; crew was killed, tank was disabled, the crew had to retreat and their tank wouldn't help them do so.
DaddyDune
Tanks for the memories
atomicpancake37
I know number 6 is an IS
DoctorWhoots420
Would you say the one above it is a kv-1?
atomicpancake37
I would say so
KronksChin
Looks like a Japanese tank to me
DoctorWhoots420
The turret like like a Russian kv-1.that's my guess
KronksChin
The turret does look similar, But I think it's the Type 97 Chi-Ha
DoctorWhoots420
Ooooo the more I look at it the more you seem right, I think it is Japanese. I think the kv-1 had a wider hull
chunkblaster
This reminds of the post a couple months where they had similar pictures & had a little monologue for each about how the tanks were sleeping
chunkblaster
Couple months ago*. It was very poetic, kinda got me a little emotional.
Delta2279
More tenk. Yes, was nice post.

FuzzyBear47
I'm thinking they forgot cuz that's a tree growing out of it and that takes a little while
conquerorgustav
Tanks are so majestic in their natural habitat
RoombaTheAssaultVacuum
Master has gone, but I wait. Enemy will come again and master will return. But I am tired. I must wait. I will protect this hill.
RoombaTheAssaultVacuum
My crew has left. They celebrated. We had won the war. I know they will be back soon. I will stare over the horizon at what I fought for.
RoombaTheAssaultVacuum
I hope I have not been forgotten. My treads are a little rusty and my barrel has not rotated in a long time, but I will wiat. And when
RoombaTheAssaultVacuum
Master returns I will fight again. I will protect. But please hurry up master. I have waited a very long time.
Butane9000
#1 is a Pershing M26 or a E2 Sherman, #2 looks like a regular M4 Sherman
Butane9000
#3 is a Walker Bulldog light track, #4 looks like a T-34 Russian tank
Butane9000
#5 looks like a Chi-Nu Japanese track, #6 is a IS or IS2 heavy tank
Butane9000
#7 looks like a Sherman equipped with the short barreled howitzer.
Butane9000
Meant Chi-Ha the generation before the Chi-Nu
nursejr210
So, are the last and first ones considered "fish" tanks?
Tacocatsupreme5
Tanks for that, I needed a laugh.

MzArlowe
You're so awful, you're funny.
Fredfinks
no, they are reef tanks.
vonKaiser
Scixzor
Dude. I want this. But like, a much larger scale. For the fish's sake.
LeonRoland
Can anyone ID the first one? Is that a Leopard I?
DaddyDune
No - Definately looks like a tank to me
LeonRoland
Yeah, its a Leopard I https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/95/Bundesarchiv_B_145_Bild-F027413-0011,_Kampfpanzer_Leopard_I.jpg
GameDaddy7175
Looks like a Sherman Firefly.
SanSilv
Yes.
Acciopower
Yes it is. It is an early version with optical rangefinder bubbles visible and raised rings around the turret hatches.
Danishlmgurian
Can't be, the turret looks American
SanSilv
Its def an early Leopard I turret.
nevaran
pretty surw its a t32 or m26
Danishlmgurian
All the American tanks look kinda similar, except for the m4 versions. But yeah, probably one of the two
SanSilv
Its a Leopard 1. The mechanical range finders and driver placement give it away.
nevaran
It doesnt even have the fat 'silencer' or whatever it is called in the middle of the cannon. Its not a leopard 1
SanSilv
... Its a fume extractor. Now, you may not know this, but those... 'fat silencers' come off. If you see those little holes roughly halfway
SanSilv
on the gun barrel, that is where the fume extractor or bore evac sits. Its pretty easy to take off once you grease it up enough.
DeathStarWasAnInsideJob
A Pershing or one of the American post-war heavy tanks, T-29 or T-32
Butane9000
T29 only had one or two prototypes built and both had engine problems and was never mass produced or saw combat
Danishlmgurian
Doesn't the t29 have a long turret with "ears" on the sides? It has to be either t32 or pershing
woodwraith
Prbly a 32, 29's were rare and the gun mantlet is legit a solid bathtub worth of metal, that one's too small vertically
woodwraith
The one in the flowers is a pershing
SanSilv
Its def a Leopard 1. Its an early one with the cast turret.
JupiterMiningCorpRep
Yep, Early Leopard 1, hard to tell which exact one though
Butane9000
That looks nothing like a Leopard turret
Butane9000
Correction, after closer inspection it does have turret traits of a Leopard. Curious which combat it saw.
JupiterMiningCorpRep
It's the lighting and camera, it's got the right hull, and mantlet, the camera angle makes the turret look a lot shorter
