why should a nation be proud to have the equipment to protect cities & schools & just maybe offer more jobs...

You know, just looking at that super-high-tech tank sitting there is kinda symbolic. The road/pavement it's on looks really crap, uneven and has potholes, just look at those pave stones up the hill. Even the tank driver there looks like he's wearing some really cheap fatigues. Some of the armor plates are probably worth more than the tank driver will make in his lifetime, worth more than all the pot-hole filled roads within a mile. I'm suddenly reminded of something the famous author William Gibson said semi-recently: "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed"

As I erroneously posted in another thread, I still can't fathom the words "stealth tank" as tanks aren't exactly all that stealthy to begin with :D

Telika: Looks like a badly modelled tank fron a 90s amiga game.

Instead of spending so much on graphic cards, we could have waited for reality to catch up with our low-polygons graphics. :-/
It's fake! There is no bump-mapping!

Sometimes feeling like you're living in the future is cool, but not a scary, dystopian one!
Skynet is on its way!

It looks like something straight out of Command & Conquer. Awesome.

Not as cool as this tank though. The French AMX 40.

lol wishing world peace, harmony, more jobs so that east europeans don't have to mass immigrate to western countries to work for less money, wanting more employment and less poverty for the people is called being communist? Sure thing....

I'm watching "Weird Weapons" right now on the History Channel. So far my favorite is the 'cat-guided bomb'.

All it's missing is a <i>TRON</i> paint job.

So they can protect themselves from Russia.

I hope this tank fares better than that submarine with the screen windows, though.

Close enough but I thought Poland was a Voltorb.
