The Tsar Tank - The Strangest Tank Ever?

With the outbreak of the First World War, the idea of creating an armored fighting vehicle was born as a solution to the static nature of trench warfare.
It was the beginning of the Age of Tanks.
These first tanks, even though unwieldy and capricious, paved the way towards the tanks that would become a dominant force on the battlefield.
On the other hand, in these early days of tank development, there were also concepts completely different to tanks that we know today.
One such model was the Russian Tsar Tank - an armored vehicle whose name did not live up to its awkward design.

Tsar cannon - no less one shot (during the restoration, traces of burnt gunpowder were found) And, Russians built other Tsar cannons. First gun, named a "Tsar", was a big bombard from XV century. 3rd "Tsar-cannon" builted in 1860s in Motovilikha (Permian artillery plant), 20" Rodman gun. And, also, Russians built other huge guns, not named a "Tsar". 10" "Eagle" iron ball cannon (1547 or earlier), 21" mortar (1605), 13'5" "unicorn" (1750s), 24" Rodman gun (1860s), 16"/20 naval gun (1883), 500 mm TG-5 howitzer (WW2), 650 mm and 820 mm S-76 guns (Cold war period).

Use to play this game on the 360, called “Toy Soldiers”. It was a tower defense game where you placed many types of toy soldiers. (LMG, Motars, etc) This tank is one of the bosses for that game and that’s how I know about it.
