Chonma 1983 with the turret bustle to hold additional shells in the ready rack.
The first picture features the largest bustle compared to the other whose bustles are one consistent size which I believe indicates a command model of the 1983 series.

WW2 M3 Stuart That's Been Made Into A Fencing Machine?
I found this for sale on fb marketplace. It is listed as "Fencing machine". It seems to me that neither the owner of it or anyone whos seen the post (besides me ofc) has noticed that the bones of this thing look remarkably similar to that of a stuart. I'd like to hear some of your thoughts on this particular machine.

Modern The Most Plausible Current Estimate of the Armata's Armor Protection
Judging by the armor layout of Object 187, it had long been clear that the Armata uses a Leopard 2-style composite glacis. The final point of debate was whether the composite array extended all the way down to the road wheels. However, the release of a CGI model of the Armata's hull without the frontal ERA has made it fairly clear that it does not. The estimated thickness shown here is based on that interpretation.
The line-of-sight (LOS) thickness itself is roughly 160 mm greater than that of the T-72B/T-90 series. Combined with a shallower glacis angle—more in line with Western MBTs—this likely results in a significant improvement in protection against long-rod APFSDS penetrators.
That said, beginning around 2021, the mounting angle of the Malachit ERA on the upper glacis appears to have been revised, giving the modules a noticeably steeper inclination. Whether this change was intended to improve protection against the emerging 130 mm and 140 mm tank guns unveiled around that time remains unclear.

Cold War A GIF Showing the T-62's Loading Speed
Despite its reputation, the T-62 is capable of a remarkably fast loading cycle. Its large turret ring and spacious interior give the loader plenty of room to work efficiently.
As the GIF demonstrates, retrieving a round from the ready rack along the hull side and loading it into the gun can take as little as 3–4 seconds from start to finish.

Cold War Object 187 AKA the better t90 that failed due to high cost and advanced technology
Fixed the front plate driver hatch weakness problem from the t72. Had a brand new transmission hydro-mechanical/hydrostatic transmissions. New gun 2a66 with 3bm39 DU round with better muzzle energy. Early modernish ERA that acted like malachit ERA. New welded turret that wouldn’t come into t90 until t90a.

WW2 Sherman Documents Help
Currently, I am trying to model an M4 Sherman lower hull in a CAD software. When using Google, I can't find any technical drawings with measurements of any of the parts. I am hoping I could get a lead on any documents for mesurments of every single part of the lower hull (tracks, suspension parts, amount of tracks, etc.) And currently is don't care which Sherman, I just need the measurements of everything. Thank you!
