well as destroying modern sub-caliber of anti-tank shells even those that hit the side of a tank the first examples of the tank were equipped with a 125 millimeter smoothbore cannon which was able to fire on the move the engine with an automatic transmission with variable power from 1200 to 1800 horsepower provides speed up to 55 miles per hour on the highway and up to 37 miles per hour on rough terrain now it's time to learn about the tank of the future the united states army ground transportation systems center at fort benning has presented concept images of the optionally manned tank the first of the vehicles shown has a mass of 54 tons and its main weapon should be a 120 millimeter cannon the tank will also receive 7.62 and 12.7 millimeter machine guns the tower of the concept resembles the tower of the israeli tank merkava shifted to the rear of the combat vehicle the second option is the larger one tank weight is 59 tons the vehicle can be equipped with a fundamentally new gun of a larger caliber which will significantly increase the firepower one of the important design features is a large and rather long tower the third variant with a combat weight of 64 tons may become even larger in the shape of the turret the vehicle resembles the french leclerc main battle tank high combat power as in the second case can be facilitated by a weapon of increased caliber the presented samples will not necessarily be embodied in metal they simply demonstrate the current direction of development of the armored forces of the us army probably a real american tank of the future will be significantly different from the images presented by the center for ground transportation systems that's all for today we hope you enjoyed the video which tank did you like the most and
