![]() The ground clearance is better than modern MBT's. The turret has no room for the commander. Even a parking lot speed bump is probably an impassable obstacle. ![]() ![]() The tracks have no suspension, essentially zero ground clearance, and would result in the LRBT getting bogged down and immobilized on anything but a perfectly flat paved road. Sponsoons are actually very good in trench warfare with in WWI sponsoon armed tanks doing better than turreted tanks, but with the leman russ sometimes being used in wide open fields, and cities it does need a turret.Īnd a final thing is people think that its top heavy, but it can actually go up to an angle of 75 degrees tilted to the side, which is actually very impressive, real life, or at least the models can, but the actuall tank would have more weight lower down, so even better than the model. Where they can they have actually sloped the armour like at the front or back. Also the tank commander has all the equipment he needs to work effectively, and the smaller the turret the smaller the target. The turret is not actually that small because it uses an auto loader and all autoloader tanks have got tiny turrets in comparison to manual, why the imperial navy doesn't use autoloaders I will never know. if you try crossing trenches the size of an average WWI trench with a modern MBT it fails.ĭue to the track layout the sides have to be big and flat, which while a problem, any sloped sides tank in history has done worse than a flat one, either because of the ridiculously extra weight of it creates shot traps that are easier to penetrate than flat armour. The track layout, is for trench warfare which the guard do A LOT. So firstly the tracks aren't skinny they are actually some of the best track width to tank width of any tank real, or fictional the tank being 5 times wider then 0ne track, with most WWII being 7x wider, and the best ratio of any tank only being 4x wider. ![]() ![]() I don't think the leman Russ is as bad a design as most people make it out because they are comparing it to modern war, and not 40k warfare. ![]()
