💥How to fire FV4005💥 The FV4005’s 183mm calibre L4A1 is the biggest gun ever fitted to a tank. The gun was very effective when it hit the target, but FV4005 could only carry 12 rounds, and needed two loaders for the 97kg, 144cm long ammunition.

The Tank Museum has two First World War tank replicas, one of the German A7V, and one of the British Mark IV. Whilst we don’t run our First World War collection anymore (due to fragility), these replicas do a great job of representing the real thing.

🗓️ 5 May 1917: The St-Chamond tank makes its combat debut in an attack at the Moulin de Laffaux. It mounted a 75mm howitzer in the nose plus 4 machine guns. Shown is the sole surviving example - part of the Musée des Blindés collection - which visited us for TANKFEST 2017

The Char 2C is the largest (in terms of physical dimensions) operational tank ever made - 10.27m long, 3.8m high, 70 tons in weight - & with a crew of 12 to operate it, it was truly colossal. It was developed during WW1 – only 10 were manufactured and delivered by 1921. 🧵1/3
