Type 59/Patton hybrid, new tier 8 Chinese MT

Here are the pictures of the new upcoming tier 8 Chinese premium. It's a combination of Type 59 hull and Patton turret - but whether such a thing existed or is a Wargaming invention... who knows?

There are no characteristics are available yet.

  3. I don't get it, but it might work. It has this T8-T10 japanese med style. Probably this mutant will have -10° gun depression.

  7. I would really love the explanation from WG about this ridicules nonsense, who on earth would get Patton AND a fucking Type 59 to do this ridicules crap? Only country I can possibly realistically think of is Pakistan.

    1. There's a lot of speculation that this would actually have been a Vietnamese kitbash.

    2. Plenty of countries have/had access to Type 59s and Patton tanks,
      Could be Pakistan, Iran, Vietnam, Egypt or even Israel. And all of them experimented quite a lot with tanks during the 1960s and 1970s.

  17. I am pretty sure I read somewhere about the evolution of the Type 59 and support from the US. So this might be one of those paper concepts

  20. The only Countries I could picture in a situation where they would need to "kitbash" some tanks together like this would be Iran, Pakistan, or Taiwan.

    Wonder if its related to PRC-US Jaguar project?

    Irregardless, Not driving that into combat with that 4ft tall tumour stuck on top of turret.

  21. My guess is that Vietnam captured a patton with the turret still intact so maybe sent to China for testing since at the time Sino-Vietnamese relationships were really good. And since there arent a hull for the turret, the type 59 hull was selected

  22. I am 99.999999% sure that this is April 1st prank tank. BUT, its Wargaming, so who can say? These are the guys who came up with the WT E-100, T28/T28 Prot., etc. However, in real life, the turret of the M48 would never fit on the hull of a Type 59. For starters, I'm pretty sure the turret was just too heavy. Also, the turret ring of the M48A1 turret was too big to fit in the hull of the Type 59, unless someone did some major remodeling of the hull, which is very unlikely. I can say that with confidence, because I have seen both up close and personal at a museum. Side by side, actually, and its easy to tell the turret wouldn't fit the hull.
