| #8 THE M47 Patton Tank The M47 Patton was an intermediate solution basically incorporating the M46 hull and a newly shaped turret originally designed for the T42 heavy tank that did not enter service at all. |

| #7 M-47? Maybe it's just got that funky rolling gear of all Russer tanks prior to the T-72. BTW You do mean M-48? No snark... is there an M-47? |

| #6 Hate to be the nerd here, but that's an American M-47 tank, not the T-34. |
