>>8557215>and had this picture of the XM-1 Chrysler as illustration for the new MBT in service with the war-mongering Americans.Considering the hype around M-1 program this is quite expected.
More often I find references to programs that were never completed, like Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle or M1 Grizzly Combat Mobility Vehicle
>have a pathological hatred for Trumpeter. I wouldn't say so. Everyone respects Trumpeter for doing the best models in the niche. Hatred is more of a "come on guys we want you to do even better". This type of people will never be satisfied. Ever.
>recall the shitstorm in community about T-90, comparing Meng, Zvezda and Trumpeter one.Yes, most accusations were along the lines "Zvezda is cheap and more primitive, but what do you expect for the price, while Meng should do even better for such high tier models".
>had its suspension ride a bit high because Tamiya took measurements of a museum piece that was gutted and had no engine. I do believe this, getting correct suspension is extremely hard if you don't have "live" references. Museum vehicles deteriorate fast.
Same story is when they copy slavshit from museum "as is", forgetting about small overhauls and modernisations, as a result they make late WW2 tanks with elements of post-war modernisations and stuff like that.
