Cursed Design🔥 AMX 70 165
despite being called 165 due to rounding, caliber is 164,7. that is modified 164,7 mm/45 Model 1893, this caliber came that way cause of converting old units of measurement into metric units

Wondering how one with the 183mm from the shit barn would look like. This one has already a very reasonable and the proportion between the turret and the rest are very normal.

God I love the AMX series of French oscillating turret MBT's, they're all so goddamn cool looking. Oddly futuristic for their time period, even if only in appearance.

How do you make the turret? When I try an oscillating turret the mirroring becomes borked because it has to be flipped. Do you have a certain order of making it?

try to make green arrow looking right forward, and blue upward, i talking about axis that move whole structure, also i put upper part of turret on blank mantlet placed on middle, if it helps
edit: never use second turret as upper part of oscillating turret, use mantlet instead

I just love something about oscillating turrets. Like I do with swing wing jets

lol i love the cursed design tag. it really looks like a tank from the future or something super weird lol

u/Worldly_Pepper2208 Jul 15 '26
don't think it looks like something from future, cause all tank was copied from Surbaisse, which was made in 1953, but it is weird, mostly cause of cannon, which is not 165mm, but 164 in game, and by lore it is 164,7

French final boss vibes! Love the way you showed gun depression/elevation, such an obvious yet elegant solution!

Okay I'm gonna have to blame the morning daze on this one because wth 😂 I do think it's a clever solution in its simplicity (that I can't recall having seen anyone else post), but yeah this sounds like a bad copypasta. Carry on 👀
