The Black Eagle is a Russian prototype Object 640 (circa 1997) that was to precursor the T-95 series, which never realized.

The model is based on the Tamiya Leopard with upped motor and remanufactured turret.

Thanks to all that came out for this event and will post more pics and vid on the website soon.

The BE is interesting for the fact that , during its time, was the first to have fully automated loading/fire system and no personnel in the turret.

We also had a hill climb test some 100 feet of 40-45 degree slope rough terrain which 2 Tam and 1 Taigen conquered. The all metal Taigen that Phil drove was impressive and performed well.
