2016-05-24 21:22 | T-34-85, used in the shooting of the movie 'Four tankers and a dog'. In the movie, it represented a T-34-85 tank of the 1st Tank Brigade of the Polish Army "Heroes of Westerplatte" with the turret number 102. In real life, it was a Polish-produced T-34-85 with some differences from the late war Soviet vehicle. In 1951, production license was acquired by the Polish factory Bumar Labedy in Gliwice, Poland. | |

2016-05-07 16:21 | Great, my comment was deleted, again... without apparent reason...again. Sometimes I really wonder why I hang around on this God-forsaken site, where power-hungry moderator/admin is deleting comments, at least half of members are barely literate in terms of cars, and people are replacing good pictures with awful ones. If you won't want this to be completed, so be it, but at least tell me about it, instead of deleting comments like a child. Why do I even bother? | |

2016-05-07 13:20 | Soviet tank destroyed built by converting captured german Panzerkampfwagen III tanks. I am not sure about the manufacturer should be. Initially factory was called KPZ, but it was evacuated in 1941 and combined with Zavod No.37 to create new factory, which was called Zavod No.38 "Kuibyshev". SU-76I was created in 1943 so long after the merging of two factories. Should it stay as No.83 or rather Kuibyshev? | |

2016-05-03 09:22 | Proposal of building heavy self-propelled gun on the chassis of Conqueror tank. No prototype, nor even model was built and accordingly to Wargaming.Net site only blueprints were created. If someone could confirm it or deny it it would be nice, because internet is rather silent about this vehicle. | |
Tycek
2016-05-03 09:08 | Soviet self-propelled gun with 122mm M-30 howitzer, built on T-34 chassis. It's worth noting that vehicle has wrong gun mounting, using the one from SU-85 instead. | |
Tycek
2016-05-03 08:59 | Idea of upgraded E-50, with transmission moved to the back of the vehicle. Tank is completely made by Wargaming.net. | |
Tycek
2016-05-03 08:56 | Heavy tank destroyer prototype on IS-7 chassis. Only wooden model was built in the '50s, but project was halted due to fact that IS-7 wasn't produced. | |

2016-05-03 06:07 | Made for game? Probs another one of the tanks that had literally no details on it but a name found on some old papers, then world of tanks make up a tank for it and slap the name on it n_n | |

2016-05-02 14:27 | Tycek wrote Any particular reason why manufacturer was changed from Malyshev? KhZTM - Kharkovskiy Zavod Transportnogo Mashinostroeniya imeni Malysheva, btw KhPZ and KhZTM is one plant, but KhPZ is prewar name, KhZTM is post war name. -- Last edit: 2016-05-02 14:37:36 | |

2016-05-02 14:24 | Tycek wrote Any reason why manufacturer was changed again? because Zavod (plant) №172 (OKB-172) is Motovilikha Plants eng.mzperm.ru/ In the summer of 1954 the designers of plant NO 172 complete their wok on the 152,4mm M64 gun. This cannon was capable of launching an AP shell at a velocity of 740m/s. It was also capable of hitting a target 2 meters tall at 900 meters. Its maximum range was 13 km at maximum elevation. This project caught the eyes of the military and in march 1955, plant NO 172 was ordered to prepare all the paperwork and begin designing an SPG vehicle made for this gun. They had only till December the same year to prepare 2 vehicles for trials. The basis for this vehicle was the T-10 heavy tank. The engine was the V-12 V-12-5 with 700 horse power. It also had a 187mm superstructure. -- Last edit: 2016-05-02 14:34:36 | |

2016-05-01 22:54 | Watch out for this tractor - it's gross. Seriously, though, one of the first german armored vehicles made before II World War. Six prototypes were made and they were tested in USSR. Since they were proven unsatisfactory, they were either used as a training machines, used for monuments or scrapped for metal. | |
Tycek
2016-05-01 22:39 | Absolutely fictional vehicle made by Wargaming.Net. Apparently nobody in the studio is fond of this vehicle and accordingly to sources close to the makers, it will be changed to something more real somewhere down the line. | |
Tycek
2016-05-01 22:34 | Apparently it's successor to 112 tank and again there is no information about it whatsoever. | |

2016-04-10 20:04 | Tycek wrote Prototype of Soviet Self-propelled gun based on the T-44 chassis, which design was made by Uraltrashmash bureau. Since the vehicle was too heavy in comparison to SU-100-M2 designed by Uralmash, project was cancelled in 1945. Uralmash is UZTM, Uraltransmash is another postwar plant. -- Last edit: 2016-04-10 20:07:50 | |

2016-04-03 19:09 | Foch tank destroyer with 155mm cannon. When French engineers managed to install 120mm cannon in the AMX-50 tank and AMX 50 armed with the same gun became unnecessary, there was an idea to increase its firepower by installing higher caliber weapon. Idea was dropped when France changed their army vehicles into NATO standards. | |

2016-04-03 18:53 | Another fictional vehicle created by Wargaming.net. This time it's Conqueror turret installed on some strangely modelled chassis. | |

2016-04-02 22:41 | Prototype of super heavy breakthrough tank created accordingly to N.L. Dukhov's design. Historically N. Shashmurin's project was selected to production, but project was dropped in favour of KV-5 tank. -- Last edit: 2016-04-02 22:42:03 | |

2016-03-25 22:01 | You know what's bullshit here? Your post. Since World of Tanks is Free 2 Play game, technically every vehicle in the game is downloadable, as there is no other way to acquire the game, but that would be overkill. And since igcd doesn't support any way to mark vehicles as premium/standard in F2P games like WoT I had to pick some way to differentiate them. I choose this way as it was the closest to what particular stars represent. And thus premium vehicles became downloadable as you have pay for both with real money and gift vehicles became unlockable, as you have to do something specific to earn one of these. Additionally way to acquire specific vehicle is also wrote down, whether it can be done via tech tree, in game shop or something more specific. As you may know, there is one saying: "krytyk i eunuch z jednej są parafii, obaj wiedzą jak żaden nie potrafi," which can be translate into "critic and eunuch are quite similar, both know how, yet none cannot do (for these who don't read Polish language). So, please, if you have better idea to mark vehicles in this and similar games, until igcd will be changed to reflect closer such situations, write it down. I am not saying my idea was the best idea, but it was only thing I came up with to show people how they can acquire specific vehicle. If your idea will be better, I will gladly use it and change every entry so far to use it. | |

2016-03-24 21:21 | Only 2 of these prototype Shermans were ever built, one was kept in the US where it was scrapped after World War II and the other was sent to the UK for trials before being given to the Tank Museum in Bovington in 1949 where it still lives. | |

2016-03-24 15:10 | Apparently Krupp has the chance to make heavy tank destroyer based on the E-100 chassis. Project was cancelled, before any work was done. Only technical drawing of this project remained. | |

2016-03-24 14:47 | Ordnance Corps wanted to modify existing T1E1 tanks, by adding additional frontal armor and new armament. General Eisenhower saw this project as impracticable and rejected the idea. | |

2016-03-24 10:46 | Former Chinese light tank design originally intended as one of the "tributes to the 10th anniversary of the founding of the PRC". This tank however was too weak to fight against the western tanks at that time, it was eventually set aside by the military. | |

2016-03-23 19:14 | Apparently one of the early Bergepanthers (tank towing vehicle) was fitted with Pz IV turret and served as a command tank of Schwere Heeres Panzerjager Abteilung 653. The turret however, should be not traversable as it was depicted in the game. | |

2016-03-23 18:50 | Tank very similar to Freedom and Liberte - basically normal tank, in this case Cromwell, with some special camouflage. | |
