(FUN UNIT)? Panther III
Posted: Mon Jan 25, 2021 12:07 am
ORIGIN
One of three fake German tanks made for the 1999 Playstation 1/Dreamcast game "Panzer Front". The motivation for the creation of these vehicles is still a mystery, as the game was supposed to be a "simulator". In the game the tank is called "Panzerkampfwagen VK6600(h) E-79", which in itself does not make sense; E-79 would imply it would weigh over 79 tons, but VK6600 would imply it to be in the 66 ton class. Even the nomenclature "VK6600" is wrong, VK numbers do not end in 0, they end in 1, 2, 3, and so on, for variations of that tank. For example, VK45.01, VK45.02, and VK45.03.
The E-79 is probably one of the oldest and most known fake tanks.
ROLE IN GAME
To continue the crazy E- series
NAMES
Panther III, E-79, VK6600.
