I Built A Tank That Would've WON WW1 EASILY In Sprocket Tank Design Game!

This tank wouldnt move for long. Theres no clearance around the tracks, and they would foul (and be uncleanable) almost immediately.

The problem is he designed a tank on paper without thinking into account the actual mechanical principle making it into creation. Having 5 gun breaches on a single turret in that rotation, good luck....

[@milkwater1204]

I find it hilarious how there's so much space in the tank but all the crew are forced into the turrets.

If it’s anything like a Mark IV or V it’s probably for the best they all crowd around the turret. They might just be able to dodge the moving parts of the running engine in the middle of the tank lol.

The two turret side by side does create what is called a shot trap in between them. Would be risky in a real world situation but I can easily see ww1 designers making this mistake. Great content either way.

[@kierain9206]

This was actually seen on the American M2A2 from 1935. It had 2 turrets side by side with a .50 machine gun in the left turret and a .30 machine gun in the right turret

[@ethanmckinney203]

Well, Vickers did it shortly after WWII. That tank became the basis of the T-26 (two turrets, initially), the Polish 7TP, and several other tanks. And the British built the Cruiser Tank, Mk. I with two machine gun turrets in front of the main turret. Heck, the Soviet T-28 had the same configuration. The real problem was that communication from turret to turret was impossible, so there was zero coordination.

[@aidanfarnan4683]

The Vickers six-ton tank, an interwar design never used by Britain but sold to many other countries, had an A and a B type: one with twin one-man machine gun turrets much like this, one with the first example of a co-axial machine gun in a mount with a 2 pounder quick-firing gun in a two-man turret.

[@steeljawX]

You can just call it a rotary cannon for simplicity's sake. The firing one after the other is called "volley fire" even though you'd think a volley would be all at once. So you're building a dual rotary cannon volley fire WWI tank. You should make the turrets alternate their fire, so one fires then the otherside then the otherside, etc. That way you have an actual sustained fire that you can space out across the reload time. Also, what a version of the game if they made a Frantic version of it. Frantic Bop it. Bop it! Twist it! Squidge it!!!!

[@duckindustries526]

as a Pole, this tank is probable except for the fact that Poles are always so poor, we would never be able to afford even a single gun

[@NothosaurusFan1981]

[@trueamericandon9985]

There is supposed to several inches between the tracks and the frame of your tank. Having them so close together can cause the the tracks to become jammed up if a shell dents the frame. Just a thought

[@Derpainoter]

That and also the frame covering up so much of your tracks would make it hell to maintain/clean especially in the setting of ww1

The polish tank is the 7TP DW, which stands for "7-mio tonowy polski" - "7 tonned polish" and "Dwu-Wieżowy" - "Double Turreted?". The entire project was build to fight infantry with two mashine guns, and was a modification of the main 7TP tank, which was based on the Vickers tank. Also, great work mate!

[@JoshuaGanoTyraxLightning]

[@kennethquinnies6023]

I rate this as a D failure, you fail to take into account the rapid load fail rate and cooling problems for your gun design at that time period

[@johnm9263]

you dont want "dual transmission" when choosing an underpowered vehicle, because theres too much lost to ATTEMPTING to move the other track in the opposite direction, rather than simply using its friction to apply a torque in the desired direction with the powered track on the other side

[@paulwollenzein-zn1lh]

There is a semi automatic cannon, a Hotchkiss (spelling?). It is a hand cranked just like the old civil war gatling gun. The main difference is mostly internal. But you basically just fill up the hopper with ammo, then you point it at your target and crank. I believe that it came in 25 mm to 40 mm. It used H.E. rounds. It was adopted by the US NAVY as a anti Boarding weapon to walk explosive shells to the boats full of boarders. It was easy to aim, relatively, being on a boat and all. The common caliber was the 1 inch, or 25 mm.
