Extra info
Main Battle Tanks
Main battle tanks are multi-purpose tanks that emerged at the beginning of the cold war.
Further reading:
Tank destroyers
Tank destroyers are tanks that are designed for the sole purpose of annihilating other tanks. They don't have much armour and thus can move fairly quickly. They usually do not have a turret.
Further reading:
Heavy
Heavy tanks have the most armour of all tanks. They are intended to fight on the frontline and take all the damage. That makes them very slow.
Further reading:
Medium/Light
Medium and light tanks have less armour than heavies which makes them suitable for reconnaissance. They are quite fast and have small cannons which usually cannot penetrate a heavy tank's armour.
Have Fun! If the deadline stresses you out, take a break, do some other stuff, play world of tanks to get inspiration.

@Tankistrus37 Yes, you can build as many as you want, but only the one with the most points can get a prize
@necroganz Well you download this thing, you'll only see a cockpit. Then you build your tank around that thing.
The problem is, you've built the tank before downloading the cockpit, so you'll need to save your tank (without the current cockpit) as a subassembly. Then you download the challenge cockpit, and put the new subassembly tank under it.
To answer your question about the vodka, I don't know either. But I think you'd get those 69 bonus points if you put a vodka bottle on your tank.

@AircraftExperimental that was just an example; ideally, one would visit a tank museum and see the tanks for themselves
@MrGreen is playing War Thunder prohibited for inspiration, because it says that only world of tanks is playable for inspiration
Hey @Mr. Green, I forgot to make this a successor to this challenge. Hopefully you see this in time.
@MrGreen hey ah, I'm sorry I post it then deleted it. I forgot to add something
@Schroneger The challenge ends tomorrow, and 95% of the participants have been rated. for now, it looks like @SV is going to win
@MrGreen , do you have the winners of each class in a summarized form? or just the overall winner for now?
@Schroneger The next challenge will be focused on improving the skills of bronze and white players
I'm working on a new project, I just need to apply the damage system to the turret, but I don't think I'll be able to complete it in time, I'll post in the next challenge.
@Hadipar It also works on android, I've done it myself with the KM-MC-6 mobile version
It is valid even if it is, then I will start.
I can't do the screenshot thing because I'm on android.
@MrGreen heres my Entry
@NCorp Yes
Is it okay to use a jet engine Just for sound?
"wheels should not turn - jet and prop engines only for look"
Me: sweats nervously in Challenger IV
@MrGreen here's my entry
@MrGreen OK thanks
Bro, can I build several tanks, not one?
@Gandana Well that's indeed an MBT, i'm looking forward to see it
@MrGreen I want to ask one more thing, does Super MBT counted? for example like having weight about 90 Tons, and almost big as maus (probably bigger) with cannon larger than 120mm but the max speed are 61km/h, or should it counted as Heavy Tank?
@CVN5Yorktown Np mate
@MrGreen nvm, i found out how, thanks for explaining
@MrGreen can u explain it more specific please? im new with this xml sorry
