I love how the IS-3 looks like a normal tank with an upside down soup bowl for a turret.
As much as I love retro tanks the Jagdpanther stands out from the rest for me. Just something is so appealing about it.

Depends on the situation. Supposedly it could pen a KT frontally, even if it didn't it would leave a hell of a dent. Theres a picture of a ferdinand that got hit by a 152AP that didn't pen and had it's armor cracked in tons of places.

German A7V Sturmpanzerwagen
This thing looks like a box on tracks, but this thing was armed with 6 Maxim machineguns and a 57mm artillery-piece. It was nicknamed "The Moving Fortress" by the Brits (Too bad only about 20 of them were built.)

Anyone else just like how the M1 Abrams looks? Sure, it's not as flashy or pretty as all of these beauties, you could even call it generic looking. Just something about the design appeals to me.

Most tanks of late war could penetrate a King Tiger frontally, even if they didn't penetrate the KT was made from very low quality steel and when tested by the British a 17Pdr cracked the armour on the first hit, this sent shrapnel and debris into the fighting compartment and would have killed the hull crew.

The 17 Pdr. was a not your average Allied tank gun.

Challenger2, the meanest motherfucker to ever walk this earth. Weighing in at 85tonnes she is the heaviest tank ever to enter service you should feel humbled to live on the same planet as this motherfucker.
She has the best armour protection of any modern tank, similar firepower to all other modern tanks, worse onroad mobility due to massive weight but the best off-road mobility of any tank due to the brilliant suspension design and the ability to control each track independently.
Whether or not you agree with me that this is the best tank in the world you have to admit she is a mean motherfucker and on par with everything else out there.
Having driven multiple tanks nothing feels the same as Challenger2, it has so much torque compared to anything else out there that it just never gets bogged down in any terrain imaginable.[/QUOTE]
Challenger 2 is fucking incredible, but according to wikipedia it's only 62.5 tons (where the Merkava is 65, and the King Tiger is 68)? I dunno if wikipedia is right, just thought I'd point that out.
Still a mean machine.
