Friday night rambling: my all time favourite #bandori character has to be Ako

Just look at that adorable chuuni muppet

@mercurialblonde His Avengers run with Roger Stern, if only because that was my first exposure to his artwork -- and the Dutch licensee really hyped up his arrival too.

@RecklessPeggy Fine by me.

That was harder than I thought. Not necessarily the best series, but the ones I enjoyed the most.

Both the M60 and M48 served in the US military until the 1990s

Their succesor the M1 was yet another expedience created through the failure of a much more ambitious project

It went through its own evolution over the years, but that's for another time

The coolest of all M60s was of course the M60A2, the 'Starship', which traded its 105mm gun for a 152mm combined gun/rocket launcher

Another stop gap for the joint German/US MBT-70 (never produced), also the most freakish experimental tank ever

Didn't really work out

Enter the M60, the most famous of all the Pattons.

Basically an M48 re-armed with the British 105mm L7 gun and for the first time fitted with a diesel rather than petrol engine, all this cost so many adjustments it became a new tank

The T95 never made it to production.

First actual new tank in the Patton series is the M48: new hull, new turret, better gun, better suspension but short ranged.

Still armed with a 90mm gun all this time too.

BUT! For the first time, no more bow gunner and a four man crew!
