for me to see. Imagine an Abrams tank with big inscription
"KIROV" on its frontal turret armor.

The_Chieftain: As far as I know, the US never captured Kirov.

The_Chieftain: Characteristics Sheets. Sometimes known as Ordnance Form
50s. I am on the road so don't specifically have the T29 series
ones handy, but they look like this. One page, two sides, always.
As I recall, the specsheets in
Hunnicutt match those of the T29 series Forms 50. They're a handy
reference, but we have chosen to rank the forms 50 as less in
reliability than a test report or operator's manual when it comes
to the data.

The_Chieftain: Earlier on, they're saying that in 1980 a multi-national
team was formed for the development of a new tank with four main
characteristics: Information, firepower, armament, mobility, and
that the tank was to be designed under the presumption it would
have to fight at 3:1 outnumbered. However, at 4:50, they say that
the only German concession to the French in the project was the
name of the tank: Napoleon.
