M60 120S: The Frankentank

Is very similar to the spanish attempt.

This was never produced!!

Italy can also get another similar vehicle. OF-40 mk.3 - a cheaper variant of Ariete suggested for export (this one participated in trials in UAE), it’s basically pre-serie Ariete turret on the improved OF-40 chassis.

I only hope it uses the same engine as M48 Super, that thing has good reverse speed.

It’s a M60 hull with a M1A1 turret/test bed. So armor packages didn’t likely exist. Nor would there be a point to do so.
Never the less the M60-2000 is a beautiful vehicle.

Please gaijin for the love of god give the 120s its 1200hp engine, stop gimping US tanks

Never had a 1200hp engine, it was only presented as an option. And it would probably require modification of the engine bay in order to fit.

at this point I’d be absolutely grateful if this tank lost its m829a1 shell in exchange for a 1200 HP engine

Apparently the source for the 750 is less than ideal, 2:25 in the vid

Spookston doesn’t know the source, he’s just making an assumption.

Source is military today, the same source Gaijin apparently used…

How would Spookston know what source Gaijin used?

Just because the in-game specifications happen to align with some random website doesn’t mean that’s the source Gaijin used.

The source quoted mentioned the vehicle got a 750 HP engine, and that it was intended to receive a 1200 HP engine but never went into production

Again:

Alright, and what prevents Gaijin from allowing the use of a 1200 HP engine in this vehicle?

The fact it was not used?

And how about stop making US stuff underperform on purpose

Bradley, launcher takes ages

Hstvl, tickle torture round, and no AA tracking

Lav, actually pretty good, stinkers still can’t lock helis though, just got a shit tracer, RIP

Xm975, Roland

Stryker, wrong reload and missing side gun depression making it super awkward

Adats, classified as a TD for some reason, and can’t look up

AGS, missing 80kph top speed, and should get m900, was the only thing great about US top tier

Losat, missile still flops like a fish

Abrams, just fucking dies if looked at and has the inaccurate turret ring, but the base M1A1 is pretty good, only due to matchmaking

It’s not “on purpose”, it’s literally the engine it used.
