Hello.
Today we shall talk about some absurd and kinda awesome weapons from real life. Truly weapons that surpassed Metal Gear….long ago…do we even need bipedal tanks?

Alright, I shall start.

Ekranoplane. Half boat and half airplane.

Now post your examples.
(note:they had to be real. Actual projects)

This shit's my thread!

Ladies and gentlemen, the M65 Atomic Cannon, the closest we've ever gotten to a real-life Fat Man:

For full effect, make a [DING] sound when they fire it.

@KYFPMM Pffft… who needs all that high-tech shit, when you can just bend the barrel 90 degrees?

This Ekranoplane is the so-called "Caspian Monster", which was not designed to carry any weapon (I think it was more designed to be a cargo craft, but i'm not sure…)

If you talk about armed ekranoplanes, you're probably thinking about the Alexeev 903 Lun

But when we talk about unrealistic impractical huge weapons that actually existed, the first thing to come to my mind is "SUPER HEAVY TANKS FTW!"

have some :

- German Pzkpfw VIII Maus

- American 105mm GMC T95

- French FCM F1

- not a tank but still fits : 80cm Kanone Schwerer Gustav
