Big gun, big box. Tamiya 1/35 Abrams.

Herbert Erperderp group build. Even bigger guns.

As long as weapons have existed, people have felt the need to have better weapons. Bows to Crossbows, Crossbows to Cannons, so on.An easy way to make your weapon "better" was to make it bigger. Bigger is always better, after all!

And this lead to some ridiculous weapons, massive constructs made entirely to hurl the biggest amount of hurt towards the enemy. This Group Build is about those weapons.

Welcome to the "**EVEN BIGGER GUNS!**" Group Build!

In this build, we look at ways to throw a big projectile at your enemy from far away.

The main rule is simple: The caliber of the gun/projectile/whatever applies has to be at least 100mm.

It does not matter what it fires or how it does so. A trebuchet would need to fling a projectile of at least 100mm in diameter, while a tank cannon needs to be at least 100mm in caliber. As long as this fairly simple rule is followed, your entry is good to go!

So...

...I'm going to build one of these...

Look I have the box and everything... Happy birthday to me... Happy birthday to me...

The M1 Abrams (Thank you Wiki) is a third-generation American main battle tank designed by Chrysler Defense (now General Dynamics Land Systems) and named for General Creighton Abrams.

Conceived for modern armored ground warfare and now one of the heaviest tanks in service at nearly 62 metric tons, it introduced several modern technologies to US armored forces, including a multifuel turbine engine, sophisticated Chobham composite armor, a computer fire control system, separate ammunition storage in a blowout compartment, and NBC protection for crew safety. Initial models of the M1 were armed with a 105 mm M68 gun, while later variants feature a license-produced Rheinmetall 120 mm L/44 designated M256.

That's big enough...

Two versions of the five are represented on the two long sides.

The M1 Abrams entered service in 1980 and serves as the main battle tank of the United States Army and formerly of the United States Marine Corps (USMC). The export version is used by the armies of Egypt, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Australia, Poland and Iraq. The Abrams was first used in combat by the U.S. in the Gulf War and later, both the War in Afghanistan and the Iraq War, while other countries deploying Abrams tanks have been Iraq in the war against the Islamic State and Saudi Arabia in the Yemeni Civil War.
