Nearest I can get to is an M2, possibly a modified M2A2.

No sorry, but here is a clue.
It was built by a company whom were more famous for some armoured cars, ie desert war.
Oh and it's not British.

I was fixated on the American suspension system, never thought to think outside the (American) box so to speak, with the CTLS being built in Indianna. Well mine isn't a tank but I thought it would be an interesting challenge.

Well done Cov1,
Not as challenging as I thought it would be. I thought the T-60 chassis and 7.62cm gun might lead people up the wrong(Russian) path.
Ah well! your turn.

(I think it could pick up the kids from school and make Pizza!) what it was on the turret that was so advanced evades me now, but I know it was not the Blazer Armour!

Hurrah! O.K, Here we go: This will make you giggle like pocupines being tickled by an octopus: Which vehilce made maximum use of a mutzav enabling it to engage far greater number of tanks than would otherwise be considered sane to do?

Would this tank be a Centurion? and does Mutzav relate to a raised position overlooking the enemy as in the Golan Heights?

A Mutzav is a prepaired firing position for a tank in a hull down position, It would be in a fan shape, so for example a tank would have a firing position at 10 o'clock and another tank a firing position at 2 o'clock. This led to some bizarre kill ratios being rkae dup as the Syrian tanks had a very small target to aim for, where as the Israelis had a large target to aim for! Well done cov1 the quiz is yours!
