An all-tank revue inspired by x-planes. This my personal effort to increase the tankyness of tumblr. No profits made or wanted. If you find your photo here and wish it gone, just ask.

Gunner's position on a T54.
I dunno why. I just like 54s.
There's that panther again. I wonder what happened to the crew. You can see some of them scrambling out in the film.

At about 0:24 you can see Egyptian made M1 Abrams rolling on Cairo. Apparently we helped build a factory to produce them in Egypt in 1984. I had no idea. Saudi Arabia has some too. Read more about it Here:

Another view of the cutaway T-55 at the Parola Armor Museum in Finland, showing an unusual feature of the T-55, the fixed machine gun firing through the glacis plate, operated by the driver.
Moshe Dayan: “Israel must be like a mad dog, too dangerous to bother.”

Cutaway T54. Neat!

Tank Graveyard. Iraq
Interesting top view of a Centurion at Bovington.
Most pictures of tanks are from the view fo someone liable to get smooshed by them. I'd like to see more pics from the crew's viewpoint.
Tank (by skuds)
I'm having some trouble figuring out how to post images from Flickr to Tumblr. If my last post shows a Type 90 instead of a T-55, let me know eh?

“You posted a picture of a abandoned tank on a beach a while back.Thought you might like an up close of it, mind you it’s a cellphone pic so its not fantastic.”

Have you seen this image before? That's ok. It's worth seeing again.
Looks like a BT driving over a trench full of Russians during training.
