Blohm und Voss Battletank Design (1970)

And found this one. I didn't see this as mentioned on the forum, so, posting here for people to take a look.

Interesting proposal


Blohm und Voss criticize the traditional tank construction and weak protection of Crew
they proposed to put the crew in a armored section who protect against ABC weapons


the Tank has unique turret with automatic cannon and automatic Munitions dump
with 60 shell in rotation magazine, so the Gun can fire miscellaneous type of shell !
next to cannon also a machine-gun


thx for Info Hikoki1946

Quite welcome, Michel. Figured as I find these, post 'em or else I might not remember them! And it archives them here for others to look up. ;D

Modern MBTs aren't my strong suit but I seem to recall the 1980s saw a good bit of tank designs with unmanned, auto-loading gun turrets?

actually this B&V Tank patent is from 1970 (see PDF)
the document was release to public 15 years later in 1985

Opps! Fixed as best I could. ;D

Maybe modify your posts to change the date?

Cheers!
