Maus

1,950 winterisstark111  6.3 years ago

An experimental tank produced by Germany in the late stages of the war. It saw no use as the testing grounds were captured by the Soviets before the first successful prototype was made. The tank weighed 180 tons or 360,000 lbs, and wouldn't be able to cross any bridge in Europe (at the time). My version of it is a little too fast and is a little unstable (falls over if you make a turn too fast) , but we don't really know how the final design would have handled so you can't really say anything about it.

    not even sure what the use is for an antenna on the turret is anyways. It'd most likely be on the hull

    @winterisstark111 Final version would most likely not have one. Most models don't show anything. The ones I have seen with antenna are in the front like this

    @Stellarlabs Yes it would have been great for allied bombing target practice but still the final version was never made so we don't know if the final version would have an antena.

    Maus didnt have a antenna. Also, the maus would have been usless anyways. Flat and large. It wouldve been a good target.

    I found 50 pictures with a Maus without antenna. That's why I went with that design

    But it's the main fire power of the tank. It needs to raise and lower to hit enemy's from below and above.

    @AnelGaming also I look at multiple pictures on google while making this and there all different and there is a picture or two of the maus where it does have an antena

    @AnelGaming all that would do is make it more likely to flip over

    Just tested it. I think you forgot that the gun can raise and lower.

    @AnelGaming as said in the description the final project was never made so we never know.

    I literally made one yesterday. Also I'm certain that there is no antenna on the Maus.
