Hm... That's the M41 derived thing made by fake china right? ... Not bad. I'll raise you Image.

Try and guess what that used to be before someone got their hands on it.

Purpelia does not reflect my actual world views. In fact, the vast majority of Purpelian cannon is meant to shock and thus deliberately insane. I just like playing with the idea of a country of madmen utterly convinced that everyone else are the barbarians. So play along or not but don't ever think it's for real.

El Listo Maximo of tanks and tank-like vehicles I have had my way with, and where. Only counts if I was inside nice and deep.*

* And that is as far as I go with Matt's approach, because I am laughing so hard right now.

This list is in no particular order, I just woke up so it's on "as I remember it" order.

Leopard C1 - CFB Shearwater
Leopard C2 - CFB Shearwater/CWM/Bovington
Leopard 2A4 - CFB Shearwater
Leopard 2A4M-CAN - CFB Shearwater
Leopard 2A5M-CAN - CFB Shearwater
Centurion (Late model Canadian) - CWM
Chieftain Mk.10 - Bovington
Challenger 1 - Bovington
Leclerc - Saumur
AMX-10RC - Saumur
M1 Abrams (105mm) - CFB Shearwater
M1A1 Abrams - Halifax Fleet Week USS Wasp
M1A2 Abrams - Camp Blanding Florida
M60A1 - Camp Blanding Florida
M4 Sherman (5 different vehicles) - See Notes
M5 Stuart - POV
Mark IV - Bovington
T-34-85M - CwM
T-55 - POV
T-72- POV/CWM
M1917 Six Tonne - CWM
Panther - CWM

Some notes:
CWM = Canadian War Museum
CFB Shearwater = Shearwater/NS International Airshow most likely. Except for the Leopard CAN versions, which were brought around to the base as a show-off for the Halifax Rifles, and I was invited out to see them.
All Shermans I have been in are in Canada, three ion Nova Scotia, two in Ontario. They are a weird mix, and include both 75mm and 76mm guns, VVSS and HVSS, WW2 use and post-war, gasoline and diesel.
I have fired the gun on the Leopard C2, that was fun. I have ridden in both the C1 and C2 in the loader's place.
Saumur = Carrousel 2012, I did not have the foresight to arrange any vehicle visits with the Musee des Blindes before I went, that will be different next time.
POV = Privately owned vehicle. All of these were shipped through the Eastern Passage Autoport in Nova Scotia. I had owner's permission for all.


What the... Nicely done mate.
And I thought that I with the couple of Leopards have seen a lot of armor...

I went inside a Chieftain once when I was a kid. Otherwise I have never been in a tank.

You are a big fan of the MBT-70 hey?
There are only 5 that are left out of the 14 produced. Germany or the USA take your pick if you ever plan on going to a museum

Because they're separate models of the T-80 family with particular characteristics that differentiate them from each other? :P

Yeah.. though wiki articles and other do state that T-80U is further development to T-80B but somewhat i feel that the relationship between both tanks are like T-80 and T-72.

But that's just my feelings :p

Speaking of which, what's the purpose of those panels that hang down from the lower part of the turret's ERA? Like here, but also on the T-80U, and certain BMP-3s and T-64s.
