clue: it's German (prototype)
MrVic: Hmm really? driver port is very non german, weird. Ahh yeah kick
outs are german design in the hull. Almost looks like ones of the
Leopard variants, close to the design for the TD version, but think
it only made it to wooden mock up, and possible gun port would be
offset to far. hmm 2 section hull assmebly? width seems rather wise
for that light of a tank almost. Main drive assembly should of
given it away as German doh. Also its drive has a rather light
weight mounting Hmmm
