Saddle tank for "Askham Hall" more details ??

Actually, I think a version of this first appeared when the invading russians attempted to cross the Siverskyi Donets River near Bilohorivka [on10th May 2022 - the defenders destroyed an entire Battalion Tactical Group's worth of Tanks etc] see ; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_the_Siverskyi_Donets not my image : fair use & public information.

I suspect this is "pixels" as someone - probably from one of the "mounted" regiments in the BAOR - has got more than a little fed up of the references to "Thomas the Tank" as the shorthand for Thomas the Tank Engine". Made me smile, as I also prefer the correct / full terminology whenever possible. However, the source locomotive isn't "Thomas" but something quite different. . not my image : fair use & public education

This meme circulated after the decision on 25th January 2023 to allow the German designed / built Leopard II tank to be supplied to Ukraine. . . Not my Image : Fair Use & public information

The label from a freshly purchased habitat - however, it will have a pair of gerbils, instead.

The large water tower at Keighley. [looks like a cast iron sectional tank - I'm guessing it is about 80 cubic yards capacity - but it may be a GRP replica, but that is still a lot of water ...]

Displays. ps what is a tank doing in an aircraft museum display ?

The Tank, Heavy Assault, Tortoise (A39) was a British heavy assault tank design developed in World War II but never put into mass production. It was developed for the task of clearing heavily fortified areas and as a result favoured armour protection over mobility. Although heavy, at 78 tons, and not readily transportable, it was considered reliable and a good gun platform. Only a few prototypes of the Tortoise had been produced by the end of the war.

Having applied the undercoat, now turning it black.
