Yes, that other vehicle does look interesting. I wonder if its a prototype tank of sorts, or another type of armoured vehicle entirely. ---

Gotta give credit to the engineers who built and designed these machines; hundred years later and still operational. Try getting that outta modern equipment which have inbuilt redundancies ---

I think that tank is the oldest working tank in the world. Being a bit of tank nut I would love to go to the French tank museum Musée des Blindés they also have a good selection of WW2 armour and also a Merkava on loan from the IDF there which they are not allowed to look in. ---
