Ah, what a silly idea indeed. Never thought of the unfeasibility and near impossibility of handling a 140 mm within the confined space of main battle tank's turrent.

Will update and expand the write-up as so good sir, which in itself is not half finished.
Cheers for the assistance mate.

its not near impossible

tis possible

jsut rly fucking hard and you'd be better off going with two loaders if you're going to do it because one is going to sustain a serious back strain after like 10 rounds

Fix'd

It's some pretty sweet modelling, though...

A few months ago I read that somebody had actually built a working model of Babbage's 'Difference Engine' out of Lego ('Techniks'[?] sets): Now that is what I call impressive![/threadjack]

Because his ideas are awful, and after the 1950s the T-34 sucks no matter how you upgrade it.

Better than Licana's anwser, at least.

lol, I said almost exactly the same thing, just stretched it out into a paragraph and added "techwanking doesn't make a bad idea good". Try harder.

This makes me lol, you make me lol. I assume you're one of the types that believes Future Tech wankery can solve a bad idea? Sorry mate, it can't.

Additionally, I think the analogy used by RRoan is quite fitting, as I would expect a tank. Sure, their advance hasn't (per my knowledge) been quite as rapid, but there have been a few major advancements in armoured vehicles in the past thirty years that would give a "modern" tank some serious advantages against the T-34 in (As RRoan said) just about every category relevant to combat. I highly doubt that the ability to cheaply produce it has any real merit simply due to how vastly outclassed it would be.

Did I ever say or imply that, no. If he wants to use a piece of junk tank that's upgraded but still sucks, then let him. But the fact that you annoy everyone who uses FT really get's old.
