Description
These guys had talents.
Where is the infantry support??? :)
Just got blown to hell by a bomb that was planted inside a nearby building.
I wonder why didn't they put some skirts on the side to cover the upper tracks...
Almost every T-72 have side skirts.
... because someone has already shot off the skirts?
... or they just ran out of budget by that time.
Option B I'm feeling.
Or, you know, they really did not care for 100% accuracy, because most viewers did not go to the movie to admire Soviet engineering, but to see WOLVERINES!!!
Is this build on the base of a M48 Patton/M60 Patton, cause it really look like one, especially the 8 wheel track. And uhhh...... US Army borrowed them? How much is to rent on of these toys?
They were made using M18 Hellcat chassis. And funny that as the tanks were such a precise replica that while it was being carted around Los Angeles, two CIA officers followed it to the studio and wanted to know where it had come from. And later rumored to asked them for OPFOR training.
