As beautiful as the day we lost her, i watched the progress of her refurbishment, she got a new coat of paint, rust removed, her turret was reunited with the original hull, the work truly paid off

[@DutchBart666]

If I recall correctly it's not the original hull, they had to cut pieces off and add the gun crutch and the brace on the rear

[@justat1149]

@@DutchBart666 It’s not yeah. Apparently the original was returned to active service after the program was canceled. Probably scrapped long ago

[@thomasleonard2564]

Yeah it's just back on it's more accurate hull the Mark 3 which this hull was also used for a different prototype to test the chieftain 120 if I remember

[@jaspergood2091]

@@thomasleonard2564 It's tragic that they destroyed an equally rare and valuable vehicle when there's a huge amount of spare centurions going if someone had only been willing to spend more time or money. In 50 years this'll surely be called historical vandalism by whoever the curator of the museum is then

[@thomasleonard2564]

@@jaspergood2091 to be fair all that was left was just the hull the gun it had has been long gone and it was just a rusty reck so turning it in to something else that's very rare to me is fine by me it also gives the fv4005 more cool history later on to tell people.

Filmed by me at Tankfest 2024 I'm editing a full video of the event but I thought the FV4005 deserved it's own video. It's so big, I had kept that footage at the start of the video showing it's size next to the other tanks around it.

[@Historyfan476AD]

Which day was this on 28,29 or 30th.

[@newtube7187]

Follow Mr hewes channel and watch these guys working on many tanks including this one😊

Watch the Mr Hewes videos of its restoration, good fun. Great to see it running.

[@bobsq5099]

She was bloody incredible to see up and running, they really knocked it out of the park restoring her. Hope they can pull the same off with the M47.

[@YourGodStalin]

Definitely going to be a learning experience for them, since they're so used to Chieftain's and Centurions, but I'm sure the Hewes team will do great work as always.

[@a39tortoise40]

​@@YourGodStalinMr hewes won't be restoring the m47, there's a different man doing it - can't remember his name annoyingly

Blessed day to see her running again. The restoration Mr Hewes and his team did was truly wonderful ❤

[@gordonbennett835]

Amazing to see it moving after so long parked by the exit as long as I remember

[@thm1940]

1:57 seeing Mr. Hewes driving the tank is pretty cool in my opinion. He restored the tank therefor he gets to drive it!

[@ygorschuma3059]

Hearing that Rolls-Royce Meteor roaring on low RPM is music to my ears

[@stuff___idontknow2610]

They did an amazing job restoring this tank, awesome getting to see it drive around under its own power

[@Qspecialman]

Ted and Joe's team did a superb job of the restoration of the this unique FV4005.

[@Timothious_Maximus]

Shout out to the Mr. Hewes crew for this fine restoration. Cheers lads.

[@GunnerHeatFire]

Awesome recording iron, really enjoyed it! ❤ Great people and team behind the restoration work.

[@TheIronArmenianakaGIHaigs]

Glad you enjoyed it! :D

[@shadowtrooper262]

Go glad to see such a rare and unique tank up and running.👍

[@wyvernbravo]

I really hope they can get a charge in her calibre, and make the gun safe to fire, so we can hear that BFG fire lol

[@magrna3564]

Pretty sure they cut the breach to disable it sadly.

[@ekspatriat]

@@magrna3564 Nope. Mr Hewes said it was still live.

[@fat_biker]

@@ekspatriat The biggest challenge will be that no 183mm HESH ammunition exists or has for about 75 years...

[@Yaivenov]

​@@fat_bikerSolid shot is easy enough to make and safer. Only need to arrange proper storage for the propellant and primers.

[@fat_biker]

@@Yaivenov I think the only point in firing the gun again would be as part of a one off exercise to document what it would do to the best armour of its day, & to modern tank armour, & what it would look like to fire a weapon like that, from inside the turret (I suspect a Go Pro would be the only thing in there) & out, & all around the target(s)... - & for that I suspect you'd want to manufacture some HESH Shells... it's not like it has a practical military future, after all...

[@solster2127]

It's was an awesome sight, worth the sunburn.

[@Fl4KF430]

This is likely a gun turret from a Royal Navy Destroyer. I would as a last minute cost effective field mod. :)

[@SrStakeholder]

Looks like a naval turret on tracks

[@MarshFlyFightWin]

Probably end up becoming like the Tortoise tank, restored ran once then put in the museum

[@thomasleonard2564]

Well the tortoise tank was put in the museum because it had major problems and it's still waiting for its restoration last time they ran it had a lot of suspension problems and the engine had issues.

[@anthonyg4671]

Well being has it belongs to the tank museum I think you maybe right 🙄

whats that flap on the back? it looks like a backrest part of a chair lol

[@tacticalginger9623]

It's a dozer blade. Basically for the FV4005 to brace against when it fired, otherwise it would be shoved several feet backwards by the recoil

[@the_bunse]

The other part sticking up above the dozer blade is the crane to load the rounds as they were massive and took two crew each. This tank was really so impracticle it made the tortoise look sane.
