whatever you say, professor!
I can cut/paste too. The Antonov A-40 Krylya Tanka (Russian: "tank wings") was a Soviet attempt to allow a tank to glide into a battlefield after being towed aloft by an airplane, to support airborne forces or partisans.  One T-60 was converted into a glider in 1942, intended to be towed by a Petlyakov Pe-8 or Tupolev TB-3. The tank was lightened for air use by removing armament, ammunition, headlights and leaving a very limited amount of fuel. Even with the modifications, the TB-3 bomber had to ditch the glider during its only flight on September 2, 1942 to avoid crashing, due to the T-60's extreme drag (although the tank reportedly glided smoothly). A-40 was piloted by the famous Soviet glider experimental pilot Sergey Anokhin. The T-60 landed on a field near the airdrome, and after dropping the glider wings and tail, the driver returned it to its base. Due to the lack of sufficiently-powerful aircraft to tow it at the required 160 km/h, the project was abandoned. THAT was 1942. I bet I could find something that could provide the thrust needed now. |

"They also minimize exposure of the valuable towing aircraft, which needn't appear over the battlefield. So the Soviet Air Force ordered Oleg Antonov to design a glider for landing tanks." see, I understand that perhaps a tank could glide, but that was dropped out of a plane. My point was, sure put wings on a tank, but how will you ever get it off the ground? If you have a bad as plane, why even put wings on the tank? this punch line is missing from this thread Quote:

Ya I dunno. I drive a '00 Tacoma 4WD. I know that the rubber is a big part of the suspension. I just don't understand how you can drive a car with that little rubber underneath ya. (MTB vs. Road bike) I'd actually prefer the smaller 235s but at the time it was cheaper to get 4 31s than 5 235s. |
