Exploring the Largest and Most Unusual Military Vehicles Worldwide
Fascinating Sightings: Uncommon Military Vehicles You Won’t Find on Everyday Roads
I’m not typically a fan of armored military vehicles designed for war zones, but recently, I came across a captivating video featuring 15 of the most imposing and unconventional military vehicles you won’t see cruising on your average city street. What makes these vehicles truly remarkable is that they’re not your run-of-the-mill military hardware.
This unique collection of war machines is the brainchild of a mechanical military engineer who, as a child, was obsessed with war games. Now, with no budget constraints, he has brought these extraordinary vehicles to life.
The video, in general, was quite impressive, but there’s one caveat – most of the showcased vehicles were of U.S. origin. It would be great to see a broader international perspective. For instance, the “Viking” should be replaced with the Russian DT30, a behemoth that outperforms the Viking in every way. This 30,000kg monster can traverse terrain where the Viking would get stuck. It’s safe to say that the Russians have a wealth of military vehicles that rival, if not surpass, those of the U.S.
One notable absence from the video was a definitive ranking of the largest or most unconventional military vehicles. We’re talking about support tanks weighing in at a mere 10 tons, while tanks from almost a century ago tipped the scales at over 100 tons. What about railroad cannons, naval ships, or even aircraft? These too should have been featured.
Moreover, the video failed to address the critical issue of protection for soldiers positioned atop these vehicles. Exposed soldiers need a 360° shield around them, complete with swiveling turrets or alternative hatches they can fire their rifles through. The current setups don’t seem adequately secure against precisely aimed bullets.
As I watched the video, I couldn’t help but recall the Shagohod, an iconic vehicle from the world of Metal Gear Solid. The way you passionately discussed these military marvels reminded me of Snake and Volgin discussing the Philosopher’s Legacy in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.
In conclusion, while the video provided a tantalizing glimpse into the world of extraordinary military vehicles, there’s still room for a more comprehensive exploration of these awe-inspiring machines from around the globe. After all, these vehicles represent the pinnacle of human engineering and innovation in the realm of warfare.
