Tank Stealth...
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Isn't that a pretty high elevation for a tank gun? The turret would have to sit pretty low as well unless the shed were actually mounted on the tank.

Defilade, 'dozer tank excavated the floor. Jeez, haven't you ever seen Charles Bronson in "Death Hunt"?! Laughing

Well, chaps, there is not complete tank in the shed, but tank turret only. This seems to be part of Austrian border fortification complex. I bet there is a T-34/85 turret inside and such elevation is possible for its armament. They used Charioteer, Centurion, M-47 and T-34 turrets without hulls installed in such fortifications and they even had dummy "teasers" there...

They have a nuseum there: www.bunkermuseum.at/
