FV4005 in a nutshell: When you slap a massive 183mm cannon to your condo with a tank hull and brings it to war...

[@Suralin0]

It's like a British KV-2, but with traverse that doesn't suck!

Americans: we'll slap on a 150mm plate to the front of our light tanks Russians: stalinium will protecc our valuable comrades Brits: saw a container in half and stick a door in the back

[@Retrosicotte]

In fairness, this was never a vehicle intended for combat, just a testing rig to trial the gun before finding a tank to actually put it on.

[@schnaufer5181]

Retrosicotte actually this version was intended as an emergency stopgap in case the Soviets decided to test their stalinium theory by invading Germany

[@Retrosicotte]

@@schnaufer5181 No, it wasn't. Given that the rig never left ATDU. "FV4005" Stages 1 and 2 were only ever listed as trial gun platforms, not something built for production. It was a gun test, not an actual combat ready design, which was to concept the hull as a viable mount for a further design, since as it is designed at current, it's still even mounted with test rig equipment you can see in game. If it had gone further, it would have been very different. Tank Encylopaedia's article is VERY inaccurate, making sourceless assumptions of "little armour meant it would engage from long range" etc. But this site is EXTREMELY unreliable with this sort of thing and making "assumptions", when the reality is much more boring.

[@Sereze001]

I can feel physical pain whenever I get hit by this thing.

[@rebelkommando6166]

On the upside, you won't feel anything AFTER it hits you. :D

[@DeserteagleS71]

In my many hours in game ive managed only two deaths by this.

[@Sierra_116]

Tell me about it

[@hyrikul602]

2:15 i know that feeling :D

[@comradevlad7459]

That first shot looked like a bomb hit the tank

[@falloutghoul1]

"Mjolnir" is an appropriate name for this tank.

[@kaiburns4257]

i hear MJOLNIR and i think the armor system in halo and not a very appropiate name because in the books the mjolnir actually protected the spartan from damage. this tank. kinda can't protect its turrent crew from anything larger then a pistol round

[@xtremekewii]

Mjolnir is perfect as no one man can lift its round and it hits like Thor

[@Plugneedsahug]

I saw this comment while reading mjolnir off the back of the tank

Most usually cower in fear whenever the battle barn enters the battle, the enemy when they see it and the crew while they're reloading it.

[@Fiddleshtick]

17:39 Is no one going to talk about the way that round bounced?? inside the Panthers front plate

[@Wyrmvonsturm]

Damage model fine Da, no shell have hiccup impacting armor, all imagination.

[@harrygolding3536]

A very rare example of HESH actually acting as intended It wasn't a "bounce", the HESH just squashed against the UFP and then (since the squashing made the trajectory downwards) it detonated into the tank. Blame Gaijin's crappy shell effect playback for that

[@koizumiizumi5426]

[@ethanobrian1320]

You know you went too far when you can fit a literal door on the turret of your tank

[@MissKay1994]

That's a far better explanation for the reload time than just the rounds are really big and heavy

[@isaacbooth210]

I love it how the tank moves when he shoots. It’s an extreme derp cannon.

[@an_f-14_tomcat]

Try the M56 XD. It moves like 5 feet every time it fires

[@nightshadedawn]

I was just in a squad last night and one of our guys was in the FV4005. He decided to use his HESH on a quad MG milk truck. He missed by 15 meters, still got him.

[@Ben_not_10]

With an 183mm HESH round, one has to wonder if there would be anything left of a panzer 35, III, or that fiat car
