1-100 Object 279 (early) tank

thingiverse

An early variant of a blueprint project for a high crossing capacity heavy tank with a new configuration scheme. Developed in 1947–1948 by L. S. Troyanov. This vehicle was to feature a low four-track engine, mounted on longitudinal beams that also served as fuel tanks, considerably reducing the chance of fire. These solutions provided high crossing capacity and survivability: the tank could continue moving even with damaged tracks. The placement of the hull above the suspension allowed for a large fighting compartment, and as a result, increased ammunition and an improved autoloader mechanism for a high rate of fire. A functional prototype was manufactured in 1948. -World of Tanks There was no object 279s here on thingiverse so I decided to post one here. This is a 1-100 scale of an Object 279 from World of Tanks. This comes with 2 files (one with the hull + turret and the 4 tracks). You NEED glue like model glue, super glue, or weld them together. The 2 files take both less than 1 hour each (scaling to 80% in the slicer and following the instructions). Happy printing!
