M48 Patton

6,938 CaesarSeizer  7.9 years ago

A detailed M48 Patton; feel free to change up as you see fit! This is optimized for mobile, so sorry to all of those using a computer!

To operate:
VTOL lever controls left tracks, Trim lever controls right.

- Watch out when taking it up to full; this thing has a dangerously high top speed.

Pitch and roll move the gun and traverse the turret, respectively.

To fire the gun, tap "fire gun".

    @AWESOMENESS360 I actually lifted the gun off of a different tank (I believe it was a panzer of sorts— I might be able to find it), which was XML modded to fire a bunch of shots at once every 4 or so seconds, but made no adjustment for the spread (leading to the shotgun effect, especially since I dropped about 10 or so of those guns in this tank)— I was doing everything on iOS at the time, and didn’t have the ability to change it through modding of my own, so I just opted to keep everything as it was, since the alternative was having the default wing gun as my main armament. I guess I justified it by imagining that the tank was firing canister rounds.

    Hope this clears it up, and thanks for the upvote!

    I know this post is over two years old, but I just wanna say that this is really nice, I love the M-48 Patton in WoT, so this is pretty cool imo. One question though, why does the gun fire like a shotgun? Kinda weird.

    I was really basing the design off of the M48 Patton that's in WoT as the tier 10 American medium tank

    @Athaya The M48 never had a 76mm. I think you are referring to the 90mm mounted on the bulldog. Also the M48A5, various South Korean M48s, and some Israeli Magach M48s were upgunned to 105mm.
