The American M60 main battle tank has seen innumerable upgrades throughout its lifespan, but one is particularly interesting. The M60 120S or M60 2000 received the turret of an M1 Abrams and an upgraded powerpack. In War Thunder it only has the former, making it incredibly slow and painful to use.

In retrospect I believe a lot of my bad experiences with this thing can be attributed to the general state of top tier, but the lack of mobility really hurts it. Maybe I'll try replaying it sometime.

There was someone explaining how tanks are coded in the game. "They don't do torque in the game. Ground vehicles are essentially planes with a bunch of gravity drag and counter-friction applied to them..." Quite literally climbing hills in this game decreases your engine power. I forget specifically how it works, but the basic logic is "More speed = More torque" This is why things like the ITO couldn't climb out of a tiny ass crater because it was slow to accelerate, and therefore had no torque.

Take Philippines (third world) for example, Uses surplus equipment and vehicles from USA like M113s, while their most modern are from European countries like France or Spain and also Israel (the newest Sabrah light tank they just got is from Spain with Israeli electronics) Meanwhile, Vietnam, which would be a second world country, currently has the T-90S as their modern tank equipment, with other Soviet era tanks in service as well.

The ultimate referrent is inspection of horses' teeth as a way of ascertaining their age and value.

The production versions were to be fit with the 1200hp version, but the tank never went into production. Even if WT is modeling based on the prototype and not the tentative production version, it should *still* have about 100ish more HP than it does.

As far as I know there was no true "production variant" of this tank. It was an export kit comprised mainly of a turret and turret ring adapter. Hulls would vary by the nations providing them.

It was never built with the 1200hp power pack. The whole concept of the vehicle itself was to marry the M1A1 turret to the M60A3 hull. The engine, therefore, was the Continental AVDS-1790-2C; 12 cylinder, 4 cycle, 90° vee, supercharged diesel, making 750 hp. It was a proposal that after the vehicle would be purchased, that the purchasing country could outfit the tank with the Abrams/ Merkava power pack. As for the thermals, export authorized countries were to get 2nd gen thermals while non export could swap out to their own thermals. Reply for sources if you’re curious, but TL;DR: They did a good job with putting the 120S in game. They just need to address the M829A1 penetration issues but pre and post pen.

People couldnt even properly fit inside the object 775 and its missiles couldnt hit the broad side of a barn irl, yet its a functioning tank in wt, its always the russian tanks that get the ''it was imagined it would do this and it does'' and american ones get the ''not all of them had it therefore none of them had it'' treatment

Ah yes,the tank that was built by GDLS to fight an Israelian-built M60 with 1200hp doesn't have 1200hp. It's like knowing very well that you need to bring soccer shoes to a soccer match and then refuse to bring them on purpose believing that the enemy team might be bad. You man, surely are one of those i encounter on the forums bragging about their desire to nerf USA into the oblivion

In that first instance at about 1:51 where the 292 doesn't immediately blow up is because you shot exactly where the unloaded half of the carousel is, since taking only enough rounds to fit the turret bustle storage (16) means only half of the carousel gets loaded.

2:31 This is incorrect. The source for this claim is Janes Armor and Artillery 2005-2006, Page 163. "The fully functional prototype of the 120S retains the standard M60 series power pack consisting of a General Dynamics Land Systems AVDS-1790 series diesel engine developing 750 bhp. It is envisioned that production vehicles would have the more powerful General Dynamics Land Systems AVDS-1790-9 diesel developing 1,200 hp. This would be coupled to the Allison X-1100-5 series automatic transmission and M1A1 final drives." The Military Today article is actually a direct quote.

I don't mean it to be the special dude: I love how the tank looks :D Possibly because I love when a tank has a similar length/size in both turret and hull. Like it is a good looking size ratio when looking at them from the side. Like Maus, Tiger II, Leopard 2A7, T-55... They look very aesthetically good when seen from the side, as the turret and hull are very close in length.
