Thanks for sharing.

Funny comment
That is one cool looking machine.
Came here expecting to see some random tank pictures and some smart ass posting a picture of the back end of a French one.

Was half right.
It's a 950 HP tank, and they intend to nearly eliminate the IR signature? I imagine the cooling fan will make it sound something like an airboat.
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. :-/
Why did I automatically thought of this camouflage when I read the title.

For a costume it looks pretty darn realistic, ending is hilarious.

You mean the 6 o´clock attack movement end ? :P.
"In the case of a tank, this could mean that the Tank Commander could potentially wear a helmet mounted sight that would allow him to "see clearly through" the walls of the tank, day or night.

This is done by taking a constellation of staring camera sensors placed on the outside of the vehicle, and then stitching their video images together using software and sheer processing power. This virtual visual sphere can then be projected into the tank commander's helmet mounted site. Think of a virtual tour of a room in a home, but real-time imagery."

I see unicorns and care bears everywhere.

I am more and more of the opinion, that in the future you wont destroy tanks or other vehicles - just rather invade the electronics and just put few settings bit off.

Tanks of old (for example) would operate as long as there was ammo, gas and dudes inside. However modern tank can be full of all of those and still become totally unusable as the first BSOD kicks in.

Why should a nation be proud of making machines that can kill innocent people and destroy cities and schools, while there is still high poverty and high unemployment rate? The government can surely use the funding from the R&D in much better ways...
Is GOG gonna start selling those ? If so - instabuy !
Nothing new here.
