Default Decisions..... Next Build

vote time again...

Israeli captured tank

or

WW2 US Tank Destroyer


I am being generic to avoid the partisan politics of my Sherman heavy collection.


Please Vote your choice for a build.

A captured Israeli tank would be a change. A T-100 (or 122) is a fun build and my Syrian Pz IV make great IDF targets. Iraq had some M-36 TDs.

How are TD's classed? I would think they would be light tanks as they had almost no armor......Iknow I am not good enough to run a lite tank( or any tank for that matter). Our club has a newish member that joined about the same time as me,he bought another members sherman andhe is almost alway out of the fight before me. Heavy tanks allow you to stay in the battle longer imo. How about a nice T32( the m26 that was designed to fight the king tiger)? or a nice T28? I still think a T10( upgraided IS3) would be nice. The idf picked up a couple in the 67 war....seems like a fun build, justuse 2 hl kv1's.

Great, be nice to see it....going to do a straight M-36 or M-36B1? Our ROK troops had the B1s with added armor to cover the top which gave them an added mg plus a lot of overhead protection..
