Chrysler TV-8
This was an American Medium tank developed for both amphibious and land assualt, it had all 4 crew members and equipment inside the turret, the turret is actually comprised of 2 seperate pieces an outer and inner shell, the tank was armed with a 90mm T208 main gun with two coaxial .30 cals and 1 .50 cal on top, it was remote controlled from inside and used closed-circuit-television, for amphibious combat the turret was water tight and for propulsion it used a single water jet, now to the most infamous part of this tank the powerplant, this tank was designed with the use of a small nuclear reactor this would've given it astounding range but any damage to the reactor could casue dangerous radiation to both crew and the enviornment, the design wasn't developed very far as it had no real advantages over a conventional design (activator 1 for lights, activator 2 for water travel, activator 3 for coaxial mgs, activator 4 for .50cal)

Can I replace The gun
@QuantausAviation This tank goes both ways
@Ricky915 @Blue0Bull Well remember the TV-8 was built when the nuclear bomb was a TACTICAL weapon not a world ending weapon
@Blue0Bull mobile nuke right, what could possibly go wrong
Nuclear powered tank, one of the safest designs ever, even if you did get hit, you can have a whole town buried with you. Well, that was a little off topic, great build!
@QuantausAviation ha! No promises! XD
Cool! The stupidest looking tank ever made! XD
Amazing , product of the nuclear age
When you take this thing into the water it's turn rate is really slow so you can get into the water but probably as soon as you go into the water it's going to take forever to get back
wish I could spotlight this
u blow me up, u die
