What if Germany had succesfully constructed the P1500 gun?

Exactlly. Useless for maneuvre warfare and if you need to take out fortified positions (forts...) you could use ther existing lage calibre stuff.

Thousands of hundreds, actually. Then, it might be worthy...

I guess that would make up for the poor attempt at the worlds funniest joke then?

(Sorry obscure Monty python reference there)

Hmm..let's see...yes, I think this could have worked!

First, instead of using four diesel sub engines, use a central nuclear power generator. Then, add self-adapting, self-repairing treads for traversing any terrain easily and quickly, and make other vital parts self-repairing. This would be similar to the setup on a Mammoth tank. Finally, construct the entire tank out of a carbon nanotube alloy.

What do you guys think?

This thing is like a stunted OGRE...

Would be pretty awsome to see that thing in action though

all of these guns would be subject to bombing raid alaTripitz and resigned to uselessness.
