    HERE
    is yer answer...the dreaded
    DOOM TURTLE
    of
    WOT
    fame..we ALL wanted it...now you can get it!
    The
    T28 Super Heavy Tank
    was an American heavily armored tank/self-propelled gun designed for the
    United States Army
    during
    World War II
    . It was originally designed to break through
    German
    defenses of the
    Siegfried Line
    , and was later considered as a possible participant in
    the planned invasion
    of the
    Japanese
    mainland.
    The near 100-ton vehicle was initially designated a heavy tank. It was re-designated as the
    105 mm Gun Motor Carriage T95
    in 1945, and then renamed in 1946 as the
    Super Heavy Tank T28
    .
    Only two prototypes were built before the project was terminated.
    Initially named Heavy Tank T28 when construction was authorized in 1944, the design did not fit in the usual categories of vehicles leading to reclassification.
    As it did not have its armament in a revolving turret, Ordnance requested a name change to
    105 mm Gun Motor Carriage T95
    , the change becoming official in March 1945.
    However, due to its heavy armor and armament—while self-propelled guns in United States service were lightly armored—it was renamed
    Super Heavy Tank T28
    in June 1946.
