My understanding is that its the back half of this grafted onto a serie 5 fighter with contra rotating props. The db605 emgine gives 90% of the power, and the little (afterburning) motorjet adds 60 mph to that.
Prototype was 80% complete by armistice, but the vehicle would be lost to the chaos of the italian civil war, at least to our knowledge.
Blurry AF but the only images of ROCS mini submarines Jiande and Jianyang in Taiwan. Former Japanese mini subs. Maybe starter subs for the Chinese submarine tree if it ever comes.
cool!

490B is not a real index. Originally two variants were designed. The more classical 490 (Poplar) and the low profile turret 490A (Rebel/Rioter). But due to requirement changes both projects were returned to the drawing board and the 490A Rebel became the 490A Boxer and then it was redesigned again and received the index 477.
The 490 redesign is the four tracked variant. It’s unclear if it retained the Poplar name or just simply returned to “490”. This 490 was built. But it’s unclear how functional it was, as is the case for most of these prototypes.
The T20E1 is a T20 with a 75mm M3 cannon and its special feature is the automatic loader, whose rate of fire has increased to 20 rounds per minute (3 seconds between shots) The crew was also reduced to 2 people due to the unavailability of the loader.
Looks so weird…but 100% better then any modern vehicle additions.
Crew reduced to two total or just two people in the turret?
just two crew would suck. One hit and your are dead
I really want to see this and Turkey but something tells me based on Gaijin’s handling of sub-trees that we’re going to get a Turkish Sub-tree attached to Israel or some wild thing like that.
