M60 120S - "The Abrams We Have At Home..."

The M60 120S was just added in the newest patch. This is a M60 Hull with a Export M1A1 Turret attached to it via a adapter ring. It is a unique mix of old and new and I thought it had some potential. From my first batch of matches playing it... I quickly cooled off own my optimism. The gun is fantastic as you would expect but the lack of speed, acceleration, and maneuverability really hampered me. I am sure there are different technics and tactics that you can use to find quite a bit of success with this tank but my overall opinion of it is, it will make a great second, third spawn for folks 10.0 line up. That is the role that I will most likely be using it as.

I can't get over how funny the Chaparral looks with the four Joes just hanging out side-by-side on the front like a theme park ride. That, combined with the relatively oversized chassis to carry a compact missile turret makes it look like a Fisher-Price toy. Baby's first missile carrier.

[@dphalanx7465]

That thing was around from the late 60's till some time in the 80's, I believe. Why we never got a newer vehicle is beyond me. (Though given what happened with the Sgt. York, maybe it's better that we never tried? ) They should have just updated the Vigilante (T249?) and called it a day...

[@dphalanx7465]

@@julianturberfield7101 I will agree that *now* (late90s+), this is a true thing...but *then* (1950-1990), the Soviets _matched or exceeded_ our air numbers, and a first rate SPAA would have been handy. Again, I think resurrecting/updating the Vigilante project in the mid-late 70's would have done the trick.

I can never look at the Chaparral the same way again... Every time I play it I feel like I am going to hear the theme song to Cheers playing in my head. This video was absolutely incredible though! Jim is a national treasure.

[@RedBaronFilms1918]

4:37 - Bo's "you're a Lada at best" comment about Jim's T-72 reminded me of an episode of the Simpsons in which Homer wrecks his car, and his mechanic (Junior) is going to tow it away. Homer requests that it be fixed with "quality GM parts", and his mechanic replies "your car was built in Croatia, it's made from old Soviet tanks." I got a good chuckle out of that. Another great video, Bo!

[@hhale]

The "Panzer" tanks in "Patton" were M48s, they really didn't do all that much to hide the fact that they were, except for a quick German desert paint job, mostly because there were so many of them and they were expected back to report for duty as M48s in the active duty Spanish army. The American tanks in the film were a combination of M46/47s (with the muzzle breaks removed to make them look more "Shermanesque" and Walker Bulldogs (a light tank that was designed during the war, but didn't see action until Korea). The problem with making any sort of WW II movie with practical effects is that there simply aren't enough tanks around from that era in working order to do massed armor shots. It would be *very* cool to see what Hollywood could do using cgi to re-create armored combat at battles like Kursk today. Unfortunately, finding a good script that someone would be willing to shoot would be the main issue.

[@petergray2712]

I find it more amusing that they used a Dutch Leopard 1 in a Bridge Too Far.

[@durhamdavesbg4948]

The commission for a tank to replace them M24 wasn't set out until 1946, it's more they rushed production for the Korean war but entered service too late for that war.

[@Vinemaple]

Have you been to a Hollywood movie lately? Good scripts are not their priority.

[@luscinius2933]

It's not a problem. There was built a 1:1 replica of a Tiger for a russian 2012 movie "White Tiger". Granted it was more of sheet metal box that looked like a Tiger, but it got the most important part: it looked like a Tiger. It ended up unused in the movie, because the director found it "not brutal enough" for the litirally a mythical tank from Hell, that the White Tiger was.

[@mentally.not.stable393]

can we just talk about this absolute legend having an m22 in his top tier load out

As someone who had family who served on the M60A2 and A3, the 120S is something very special. I even have the manual for the both the M60A3 and 120S as well. Interesting reads

Kelly's Heroes is the best tank movie ever made. I know this because they sell it in the Tank Museum gift shop AND it was referenced in Girls und Panzer.

[@rotteni]

8:00 its called "vihta" or "vasta" depending where you are from in Finland. its made out from fresh birch branches with leaves on it. during your time on sauna you soak the vihta in the water that you throw to the stones and yes you beat each other with it.

[@dabiga2315]

I'm impressed by how hard Jim stuck to the Wisconsnovia bit

[@TomPrickVixen]

We have a Tiger E "at home" too! The local prop rental lot has one built on a T-54 hull and uses a functional (russian) 85mm gun, so it can even fire live shells, they even have a Hetzer too (its a custom bulit chassis that uses ASU parts but it only has a "water pipe" for a gun), but their half-trucks and wheeled vehicles are original WW2 stuff! At least in "Fury" they used real WW2 tanks from collections and museums.
