Great build Herbert!

[@gamesgonenuts]

this was great hitting the like

[@trekanbelluvitsh]

Captain Jonathan Archer would be proud. Let's hope that the french army is cool and intoduces a Main Battle Tank Piccard. 😉

[@markfergerson2145]

Picard claims to be French but has a British accent…

[@Kettleman1.0]

The archer is such a unique tank it's the only one I can think of with the main gun facing backwards

[@markfergerson2145]

That’s intentional, to facilitate “shoot and scoot” doctrine.
In other words you fire as directed, then drive away quickly so that the enemy can’t hit you when they figure out where you are.

[@HerbertErpaderp]

It's probably also got something to do with the length of the gun. I imagine it'd get stuck in the ground on even slight slopes if it were around the other way.

@@HerbertErpaderpafter a bit of research i believe it was too long to be mounted normally on a valentine hull

[@GaddisGaming]

There is something going on with the front track gearing?
